On the subject of Spoons" Law
Notes says: "Spooning is not gepei
ally claseed as a dangerous occupa
tion, even when carried on by two per
sons OF opposite sex. In mining opera

occasionally required to 20 exploring
with an instrument known as a
spoon for an uneXplodcG charge Of
dynamite, the rule seems to find its
exception. OF such sp0oning was
Judge Lamm thinking when he rid

personal view of the writer that one
who handles dynamite with a spoon

longer the better. If authority Is nee.
essary for this judicial dictum, It may
BE found in the Danish proverb to the
