Habits of the Bindweed Field bindweed owes its persistence to its exceptionally deep roots. By these it is able to draw upon water supplies far out of reach of ordinary plants. In these deep roots it can store a large amount of reserve food upon which the plants can draw when the leaves are destroyed. Cornfield 1,000 Vears Old A cornfield a thousand years old and a domed earthen council house are among the reminders of longvanished peoples who once occupied the vicinity of what is now Macon, Ga. _____

Can’t Farm Right-of-Way Numerous 7 complaints have been received by the state highway commission of the action of some farmers in plowing and cultivating a portion of the right-of-way along the state highways. Such use of the right-of-way is prohibited as it interferes with proper drainage and cleanup work by the maintenance department. A cultivated section of the right-of-way along a state highway not only looks bad to the public but it establishes a precedent that is against commission policies. Man Not Made of Clay’ Clay is a mixture of silica and alumina, and it occurs in no known plants or animals in this combination. Dust we are and to dust we return—but not to clay, asserts a writer in Pearson’s London^ Weekly. The Bible says, “The Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground,” but it does not say clay. Even Shakespeare erred when he wrote in “Hamlet,” “Imperious Caesar, dead and turn’d to clay, might stop a hole to keep the wind away.” The dust to which a man returns after death is far from being like clay.

Bar Peddlers From Highways A resolution adopted by the State Highway Commission last July prohibits the use of state highway right-of-way as “stands” for peddlers. Violation of this regulation %as been reported several times during the past few weeks. The action of the Commission was taken as a safety measure and requests have been made for strict enforcement of the ban by the state police. Frequently trucks and cars used by peddlers and the wares which they display are so close to the traveled portion of the highway that other traffic does no. have room to pull off the pavement to park, an unnecessary traffic hazard. Motorists observing violations oi this regulation are asked to file a report with the nearest state police post. « Irvin Rasor, of Whiting, is the guest of I. J. Rasor and family this week. Mrs. R. L. Wise and sons, Claude and George and Mrs. John Robertson were Sunday guests of Syracuse and Cromwell friends.

Origin of Pack of Cards Playing cards originated in Hindustan, early in the Seventh century. It was not until 1392—100 years before America was discovered — that a Frenchman, Jaques Gungoneur, designed a deck of cards similar to those in use today. He fixed 52 as the number of cards, one for each week of the year. He put on 365 spots, one for each day in the year. He used IS cards to the suit, one for each lunar month of tiie year and four suits, each suit representing one of the four classes of society of that day. The suits were pique (pike) signifying soldiers —trefle (clover) was the emblem of agriculture—carreaux (diamond) representing the diamond-shaped tile used by artisans — couer (heart) which was originally used to identify the clergy.
