GLASS IN FOOD MAY BE GRIT

Savannah, Ga, April within the
last few months the city bacteriologi-
cal department has made examina-
tons of dozen or more foods
thought to have contained glass, put
in by Germans, according to a state
ment made by DR.. V. H. Bassett, in
charge of the city laboratory.
DR.. Bassett maintains that in many
cases fears along these lines are TN
warranted, and most of the alleged
glass in sausage, bread, -four, and
tapioca are due to highly excitabie
imaginations. s
After all examinations made by Dr.
Bassett no glass has been found in
any of the food submitted at the city
laboratory to determine the presence
of glass or sand. In all cases grit
or sand has been found.

Wunaea Catch Fish With Hands.

Fishing IN Samoan seas Is often done
By the women, and without nets, boats
or hooks. They simply wade into the
water and form themselves into ring.
The fishes being so plentiful, they ave
almost sure to imprison some in the
ring. These women are very quick and
active, and every time they catch a
fish with their hands they simply throw
1t, olive, into the basket on their back.
