I “Memorial to Valor of Soldier* of the South** The United States half dollar bearI Ing the picture of Grant and Lee, with I I the inscription, “Stone Mountain” on the face, and on the reverse, “Memo- - rial to the Valor of the Soldiers of i the South,” year 1925, is a commemorative coin, issued in 1925 by the United States mint at the request of Stone Mountain Confederate Monumental association. This organization, founded In 1916, was sponsored by the Daughters of the Confederacy, to perpetuate and honor the memory of the soldiers of the Confederacy, and Robert E. Lee. in particular. Money for the memorial was raised by the Daughters, largely In the South. One unofficial statement says that 2.314,709 pieces were minted, and sold for SI.OO each. The association had asked for 15.000.000. Stone mountain Is 16 miles from Atlanta, Ga. This particular memorial depicts Grant and Lee on horseback, and is carved on the side of the mountain. The original sculptor was Gutzon Borglum. who had trouble with some of the association, and was discharged. His plan was .carried out by Augustus Lukeman, who completed it In 1928. in spite of the opposition of some of the northern veterans. It was unveiled and dedicated April 9, 1928. on the sixty-third of the surren- ' der of Lee to Grant Robert E. Lee, IV, great grandson of the general, pulled the cord that released the curtain. Every Word We Know I* Stored in Small Space Science Is repealing many wonderful things about the human brain. It long has been known that different parts of the brain perform different functions, but science Is relating the parts and' the functions, so that the exact location of an Impainneht may be determined before an operation. A small section of the brain may be a storehouse for a specific thing. A professor of and Greek suffered a blow on the head. He remembered everything else, but could remember nothing about I-atln and Greek. This and many other strange experiences from head Injuries are related by a writer tn Popular Science Monthly. One Injury left the victim with perfect sight, but printed words meant nothing. Another, after a similar experience, had perfect hearing, but spoken words had lost their meaning. “In one small patch of gray matter, hardly larger than a nickel." says this authority, "is stored every word we know.” Bird* That Laugh Our green woodpecker is famous for his ringing, laughing call, but of all birds It Is the kookaburra, or laughing jackass, a large Australian kingfisher, which laughs most heartily. Australia has also a laughing owl, as the whitethroated nightjar Is called, with notes so like pealing laughter that one laughs to hear them. The lyre-birds of Aus trails imitate the laughter of the kookaburra, and any other sound they hear —human laughter, the screams of a pig In Its death-throes, the noise of a horse or dray, complete with the rumbling of wheels and the rattle of chains, the buzzing of a >aw or the swish of a coach driver’s whip. Several of our gulls have a laughing cackle, while the penguins called “jackass" utter a laughing, braying note all through their nesting season, laughing from dawn till dusk. England** Oldest House Minster abbey is reputed to be England's oldest house. According to tradition, the picturesque dwelling, which Is located on the Isle of ThaneL near Margate, tn the southeastern corner of England, dates back to King Egbert of Kent, who lived In the early part of the Ninth century. Egbert granted half the Isle of Thanet to his niece, Domneva. and she erected Minster abbey as a nunnery. Later It became the property of the monks of St Augustine's, Canterbury, remaining tn their hands for five centuries or until the dissolution of the monasteries James I sold the abbey and It has since been used as a private residence. Death Granulate* Call* Cells In the body become granulated after death, the American Association for the Advancement of Science was told. Actual “life” In the cells I* called cytoplasm and It I* invisible. Methods of using stains that have always made invisible matter visible fall to work tn the case of cytoplasm. It cannot be seen until after death and the granulation begin* to take place. A cell dying slowly has more chance to come apart and fat or oil comes out of the cell most often, tn droplets. Cell* dying of starvation use up all their reserve food supply and then digest part of th* cell's tiring material to keep th* rest alive. Thia al»> happens in fever.—Answer* Magazin*, Goldfish From Carp Family Goldfish had their origin with th* Chinese who are and have been famous fish breeders.

The Raven and Crow Are Sisters Under the Skin Poe’s' raven and America's crows, Ilk* Rosie O'Grady and th* Colonel's Lady, are sisters under the skin. While the raven tapped doors, the crow taps eggs of nesting birds —the baneful influence of both th* legendary emblem of death and the pillager of cornfields amounts to the same thing. “It Is doubtful.” states a publication of the United States Agriculture, “whether any other bird is of a* great economic importance to the farmer as the crow. In food habits it is practically omnivorous: It takes anything from the choicest poultry and the tenderest shoots of sprouting grain to carrion and weed seeds. The fact that no less than 656 items have been Identified in its food give* some Idea of the bird’s resourcefulness." During the months when young crows are being hatched and reared. ' the parents are persistent hunter* for the young and eggs of wild birds and poultry. The bureau of biological survey states In a reiwrt on crow damage at a federal waterfowl sanctuary: “The chief enemy of the ducks was the crow. This bird destroyed 86 per cent of the eggx” There are four related species of crows: The Florida crow, fish crow, southern and western crow. Dante, the Italian Poet, Was Native of Florence Dante, the celebrated Italian poet, was born In Florence In the latter part of May. 1265; the date is uncertain. His family was an old one. his father an adherent of the Guelph party in th* long feud with the Ghibellines. At nine Dante first saw Beatrice Portinari. then only eight. The “Vita N’uova” is practically a history of hl* love for her. She enters also Into th* Divine comedy. In 1287 she was married. but not to Dante, whb expressed no disappointment at her marriage. She died soon afterward, at the age of twenty-four. I>ante himself married about two years later. He became passionately absorbed ta the love of country, and at the age of twenty-four fought on the side of th* Guelphs at the battle of Campaldlno. He was Intrusted with several foreign missions and became an Important factor in the Florentine government Time modified his ardent partisanship, and he was occupied with plans for the reconciliation of the Guelphs and Ghibellines. In 1363 he abandoned his public career and spent the remainder of his life in wandering from one city to another and in study. He died at Ravenna September 14. 132 L America B. C. Whether the first human creatures roamed the wilds of Africa 20,000.000 years ago or whether man first appeared in the Gobi desert or some other region remains a puzzle on which geologists never cease to ponder, remarks the New York Sun. The controversy ob man's first home does not overshadow In - interest a report on ancient American culture presented by a representative of the American Museum of Natural History. Digging In their native soil, anthropologists of the United States turn up some of the most fascinating puzzles known to students of prehistoric man. When a quarry near Folsonu N.

Mounds In Kentucky have yielded skeletons and the remains of ancient dwellings believed to mark the site of a town which thrived in the South In 1068 R. C. Th* Earth** Thia Crust That the crust of the earth is only 40 miles thick, and that It must bend when loaded with ocean water, glacial ice, or deposits of sand or mud.

Each of the experiments involves furnishing spawn of other fish to supplement the natural food of bass, it was explained by Virgil M. Simmons, Commissioner of the Departmnet of Conservation. At the Wawasee hatchery pumpkin seed sunfish are kept in the pond with .bass but separated from the bass by a fine mesh screen. The screen will permit the circulation of the sunfish spawn and the young bass through the mesh, making the spawn available to the bass for food. Another test being made this year at Wawasee is the holding of a number of walleyed pike in one of the hatchery ponds and the provision of sucker spawn as food for the pike. In the past the rearing of pike in hatchery ponds has not been successful or economical but it is believed that the test now in progress will overcome the disadvantages experienced in the past. At the Riverside hatchery a thousand off-color goldfish were used as breeders for spawn which will furnish feed for the young bass in the hatchery ponds. The spawning of the goldfish and the hatching of their eggs was delayed until aftee the hatching of the bass. Bass feed on minute life found on water vegetation for a short time before beginning their raids on other smaller fish. At the Bass Lake state hatchery, an experiment is being made using soft specie* of fish as breeders of spawn to feed the young bass. The results of this experiment will be checked against others in progress to-determine the most satisfactory. 0 A sucker may be born every minute, but the attending physician doesn't care for that. He gets just as much as when attending those that are born smart and become editors. — q ;— A New Jersey college student who disappeared on April 7, has returned with the statement that he drove a car to Los Angeles and back—and still he didn't find a parking place.
