Speaking Of the freedom OF the snesze,'
hay fever victims have 1t figured out that
II all the weeds IN town were cut before

get past the snort period without a re-

about the only way to enforce the har,

Rohner after being stabbed from be-
hind by japanese bayOnet was thrown
into the courtyard OF a japanese police
station and LEFT there bleeding and half
naked. only the insistence OF Mr..
Heintzleman, the American Consul Gen
eraI. saved his life. because :he Japanes e
officials swore there was no American
concealed in the police station and re-
fused to permit search to be made.
After Rohner's PROSTATE form was
discovered the officials said they had
misunderstood Mr.. Heintzlenans In

The attitude Of tire japanese officials
in this case is regarded here as const.-
tuting more than "a possible lack OF

to make them. will have 10 be procured
from Japan before this part OF the story

Do you know that plants
possess real sympathy for
each other.
A begonia becomes very
much tached to fuSchia,
and if the fuschia is re-
moved the begonia will
be apt TO show in its ap-
pearance that something
/! is seriously wrong.
All the curious things
OF this world do not oc-
cur in the animal king
dom. In fact, some OF the
most marvellous phenom-
enon appear in vegetable
life.
Some scientists have
even gone so far as to
say that some day we will
be able to prove that
even plants have powers
OF REASONING.
When that day comes
we will then KNOW alb
sOlutely t h at animals
THINK, for they are of a
much later stage of evo-
luton than plants.
This world sure is full
of wonderful and curious
things, And the more
one knows the more he
realizes how really little
he DOES know.
