Everything from meadowlarks to -crocuses has been spotted by winter-weary residents. Next thing we know, someone will be finding some violets. ... . Kite flying is going on apace, despite a shortage of kites. . Many of the hometowners are running around in circles looking for such scarce articles as white shirts. They're harder to find than cigarets—and that's really something. « . R.- 1. Smith, University Heights, came forth during the week with a suggestion to smokers on how to make cigarets go twice as far Take a sharp razor blade and cut the pack of cigarets in half, he says. Then smoke each half in a cigaret holder. . That way you can get about as much smoking pleasure out of a half cigaret as out of a whole one. . . , What-won't they think of next?
