A young air corps officer sta- tioned somewhere in Egypt was flying near the Great Pyramid, carrying out exercises in naviga- tion and discovering his geograph- {cal position with a sextant. After a series of involved and confused calculations, he turned suddenly to his pilot and said, "Take off your hat." "Why?" asked the pilot. "Because, according to my cal- culations we are now inside St. Paul's Cathedral." "Your wife is a very syste matic woman, isn't she?" ask- ed Robinson. "Yes, very," replied Smith. "She works on the theory that You can find whatever you want when you don't want it by looking where it wouldn't be if you did want it." At the end of the first week away from home on a new job, the young husband wrote to his wife: "Made foreman--feather in my cap." After the sceond week he wrote: "Made manager -- another feather in my cap." After the third week he wired: "Sacked -- send money." His wife telegraphed back: "Use feathers, Fly home." "Where did Mabel get that awful hat?" "She won't tell. I think it's a millinery secret." ie 5 DO THIS!

Pre- liminary tests have convinced Dr. Schumann that dry Capetown can extract 31,000,000 gallons of water a day from this ever-present vapor. * * * Meteoroligist are sure that un- der ordinary conditions it is im- possible to duplicate the natural (Shororsnly served on Ss forces that make rain. But Table Mountain's "cloth" is not an ordin« ary cloud. Created by a wet south- easter that constantly blows agalnst the upper slopes of the mountain, the cloud, spilling over the moun- tainsides, is so moist that water drips from the trees and bushes it envelops, and. rainfall high on the mountain averages up to 73 inches a year. Dr. Schumann reasoned that there must be same way to con- dense this moisture on objects other than trees. He first tried gauze netting (using a small art- ificial cloud in his laboratory), but the tiny droplets went through his net. He decided to apply electricity; he put two gauze disks in a glass® tube, created a potential of 30,000 volts between them, succeeded in condensing all the cloud vapor in his tube. . 0. Dr. Schumann then felt he had the formula for Table Mountain, He proposes to erect on the moun. tain-top two parallel fences of fine wire netting, a foot apart, with an electric potential of 50,000 to 100,000 volts between them, He thinks that these wire screens, about 150 ft. high and 9,000 ft. long, will pre- cipitate from the cloud at least 31, 000,000 gallons daily, Since the cloud is constantly renewed, win- ter and summer he believees it would give Cape Town a year-round water suppy. Modern Etiquette By Roberta Lee 1. When one leaves from calling on a friend, should one apologize for staying so long, or for talk- ing too much,, or for liurrying away 2.

Before th: span was in operation, all railway traf- fic from Egypt to Palestine and Syria went to Quantara and was ferried across the canal by barge. It meant running trains to the canal and then sending them back, Now, trains can make the. entire journey. The bridge will remain there af- ter the war as one of the trans- portation improvements brought by hostilities, 'For Faster Relief of CHEST COLDS Muscular Aches & Pains Tired Burning Feet.

If the egg is left ex- posed to intense frost "this process may be so effectually checked at the outset that the germ will not develop" when the egg is raised to incubating temperature.
