The inventor is W. D. fir. Gregory, a sick-bay attendant in the British navy during the war and now an operating-room technician at Exeter city hospital. His knife has not y#t been used In the operating room. He to|0 reporters it will prevent shock through loss of , blood, sometime* fatal during an operation. The new knife has a grooved blade with a thin tube running through Its hollow handle. As an incision is made, a small elec trie pump draws away the flow ing blood, passes it through a purifier, and pumps it back into • vein through a needle, similar to those for transfusions of blood plasma. Gregory has register^ his knife with the British patent office and expects the patent to be granted soon. . , War an Ceyetes Airplanes are being used earteosi^ ly in Nebraska for killing coyotes, and latest reports show 140 of the marauders eliminated in the past few months in Greeley county.

'• Wait far Cold WMHMTJ to Catch Yoe Unprepared c. & bum, At least 87 states require public elementary and secondary schools to teach United States history, the Council of State Governments reports. In the majority of those states the legislatures have given considerable discretion as to content of the subject matter of the courses, simply requiring that U. S. history be included in tht! curricur lum. Some states, however, are more specific as to the time, content and purpose. Included in this group are Arkansas, Illinois, New Jersey, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and Washington. All stated with the exception of Kentucky and Maryland, have statutes which require instruction in high schools concerning the Constitution. However, in these two states, such instruction is provided by state education departments regulations 4§ course of study requirements.

I Up by the Arctic circle, the small seaport of Mo-I-Rana (^I-feana" j means in Rana district) is undergo- j ing an amazing transformation into Norway's -'Far Nogth Pitts-1 burgh." / / Hydroelectric power for the plant, bomb-proof chambers for the power grnerators, and railway tunnels i cut deep inside the mountains are j a few arresting features of the project ; With a working harbor and plenty of iron near by, and a north-bound railway already reaching past Mo, this gateway to the lands of th< midnight sun finds itself the center of a potential steel age that recalls!" stirrings ol long ago. Norway's first Iron Age lasted from the Roman era well into medieval times. Its cultural develop-; ments started with the expansion' of Roman influence in norther^ Europe, and the importation of raw iron and fabricated iron objects. Later, following the discovery that, native bogs were rich in iron deposits, the early Norwegians began innking their own iron * products. From iron smelted in primitive 'blast furnaces, they created a surprising number of useful articles, from kettles and other kitchen utensils to sickles and axes. The iron ax, which made possible the building of more advanced boats, helped lay the foundation for Norway's seigoing activities, still a major factor in the nation's economic life.

Two thousand already have been erected by state personnel. The boxes are placed on poles six feet above the Water and from 15 to 20 feet from shore.

However, accidents do happen occasionally and, when they-do. then comes the question of how to remove the stain. Helen Zwolanek, clothing specialist, University of Illinois college of agriculture, says lipstick stains on fabrics call for prompt action. At best, such stains are difficult- • sometimes impossible--to remove without injuring the fabric. If the material is washable., first lotfsen the slain by working- glycerine or vaseline into the fabric. Then launder it in the usual way Don't apply soap or other alkalies before you loosen the stain. They are apt to set it. . If water spots the material, work vaseline or lard into the stain Then either sponge *rith carbon tetrachloride or dip the stained part in a bowl of the solvent. If a trace of color remains, sponge the fabric with denatured alcohol. Be sure to dilute the alcohol when you use it on acetate rayon and colored materials.

Wood that is impregnated with an adequate quantity of fire-retardant chemicals will not usually support combustion. For interior work, combinations of ammonium phosfate and ammonium sulfate have been used as fire retardants. Other chemicals that have been used are ammonium chloride, sodium borate and alnc chloride. Most these chemicals are soluble and %ould be washed out where exposed to the weather or when used on floors cleaned by washing. Certain materials when applied as coatings OWjy wood provide some protection against ignition tt the wood and spread of flame. Meaty Subject A woman went on a diet.

The Ringhals, a "spitting" snake, is the shortest of the cobras, averaging about four feet in length. When disturbed, it will eject venom in two streams from the fangs, accompanied by the expulsion of air from the lungs, so that the venom is sprayed several feet in a fine shower. Entry of the venom into the eyes causes intense pain, followed by inflammation and partial or total blindness.
