I have just been reading. My wife went to sleep but will be along in a second now.” And the editor was shaking ~ hands with ;iri old friend, who-finally i stopped slapping his shoulders and shook hands with me ,and said: "Come along this way, I’ll show you a real wash bowl and guarantee you’ll feel like a new’ woman with your face and hands taken care of.” .1 Such a tactful way of telling me they looked as soiled as they felt. I said that would be heavenly, and The said, if you think a washbowl is Jieaven, what would you think of a I bath tub. and I told him I -wouldn't know what to think of one in Africa, ! but in America, when we left, it was a place they were dipping cham- > pagne out of at certain parties. Across the hall we went, and with i the electric light snapped on, there, I right in front of the was a perfectly ' good, ali white, modernly plumbed, American bath room, running water I arid all, right at the end of the ride into the African interior. !

This seemingly fantastic idea is well within the realm of possibility, according to scientists of the Davy Tree Surgery research laboratories. Some day, they say, it may even be possible to have pink leaves on maple trees, yellow leaves on elms, and Alice blue leaves on sedate old oaks. Already they—have changed the color of the leaves on many trees from green to crimson, red and violet. This was done during the course of experiments made to find away to immunize trees against insects and disease by injecting chemicals into the trunks. Some of the chemicals made startling changes in the color of the leaves. Inasmuch as the research workers were not trying to outdo Mother Nature -iri providing color scheme for the great outdoors, they did not proceed farther along this line. But they had persisted in their efforts to control pests by the chemical injection method and hope eventually to succeed. Until such time they say, insect pests will be controlled by the spraying methods perfected in their laboratories arid known to be effective. : ■, O — Mexico has had several years of socialistic government. The schemes look well on paper, and are supposed to be in the interests of the common people, but as a result there has been an almost complete paralysis of production and consequent widespread unemployment. The market value of Mexican’ national and railway securities is six and a half per cent, of their par value.

CL Flash Salute,” “0. K. Flash Saluti,” and the “Victory Flash Salute.” 'These fireworks itbms are deceptive in appearance, looking' like very small salutes or bombs. -However, they are powerful enough to seriously injure or possibly even kill those near when they are exploded. “Because of the extreme danger of these salutes, this office is making a special rule that none of them be sold, purchased or handled in, Indiana. Dealers are warned not to handle them and Prosecuting Attorneys of the state will assist this department in prosecuting violators. The general public is also notified of the danger attendant on th<ir handling or use.” - . ——-o ——■ ■■ • Every day or so we hear of another important bank merger but for some reason or other this doesn’t seem to make money any easier to get.
