Little Iran came through tbe Hu Mian fracus and it appears that the trouble will be ironed out, much to the relief of the world. We should not be too hasty in jumping on countries which disagree with certain plans, tor after all this country is not a perfect example of harmony. If nation* are free they have a right to fight for their cense and the headway made among the United Nations is far greater than most of us expected. The world is closer to tinideal of peace than it was a quart er century ago. The Department of Agriculture estimates that because of strikedelayed production, there will be lov.oot) more orders lot farm tractors than can be tilled In fact It will be late 1947 before supplies can catch up with demand for farm inacluuery Tbe scarcity in these lines is further heightened by the plan io export 13 percent of thia year's total tractor output, agriculture implement*.

They are worth far more than gold or any of the other m<dale— not so muc h tor their intrinsic worth a* tor their military value. They are tbe metal* fremi which the atomic bombs are made-, and therefore cherished according to their accepted merits. No other known metals are capable of wreakiug so mu.b destruction. From present indications, if our world or any considerable part* of it are to be destrwed by human enterprise, they are the weapon* tits' will do it. There are dlgeruat viewpc'.bts about these tremendous weapons, now -teeing stored secretly away in great quautilix by American enterprise. Man. as is well known, is a fighting animal, and in case of peril be is generally willing to use what comes to bis hand for defense. The bomh is cherished accordingly, and will doubtlew continue in its present high esteem until such tune as man becomes civilized enough not to require such dreadful instruments.

hr expends in doing so. A* a Brneral rule. Mercisea which produce so fatigue whatsoever are of little value. A brief period of no-called "*ettinoilp’' exercise* taken each day. according to Dr. Keys, is not of much value except in person* who may be extremely weakened ns a result of disease or old age. He also thinks that exercises should lie pleasurable because otherwise the mlud becomes fatigued before any effects of the exorcise of the l»ody are achieved. Many times a sick person may just nut have the desire to exercine. In such cases Metalled passive exercises may be helpful.

a comedy playwright. Everything about him was funny. From the French accent and mannerisms, from which he lapsed into purest Brooklynese at times, to hl* motions: a peculiar ridewise cocking of his sleek gray head and a btrdlike jerking in his walk. No wonder his name had been transformed into th* descriptive Tolly." He waa likable, though, in spite of his affectations. And I feel pretty sure his interest in me- shown only after Margot Ingalls’ least, last problem had been settled—wav genuine. “It would give me the greatest pleasure to dress you. chero Mad--moisell* Applebee." he assured me with many Gallic gestures "Pare* quo—eb Men—it ess not the perfection that attracts the artist, but the possibility of the sublime A leetle more here, and a leetle leas there, and you would oe tnagiufique.

The process included hours to be spent each day in a certain beauty parlor, and the gentle hint that a slight operation to remove the too much of my nose would be hifiidy advisable.
