Muscle Shoals Project
Before Congress

Washington, June 9.-Three sep
arate reports setting forth the recon-
mendations for action by congress on
the proposals for the Muscle Shoals
projects were made 70 the house today
by the members of the military com"
mittee. Acting Chairman Mckenzie,
who drafted the majority report, de-
clared that the Ford proposal was only
the one found worthy of considera-
ton" and asks the acceptance by the
house provided the Gorgas plant was
not included. Concurrence in the ma
jority report except for the reference
to the Gorgas plant was voiced in one
minority. Opinions were expressed by
Representative Wright of Georgia,
supported by cne Republican, the re-
mainder being Democratic members.
In the third report the opinion was
adverse to the acceptance of the Ford
offer unless modified in other sections
than the Gorgas.

Horned Toad Lives
Weeks Without Drink

New York, June 8.-The horned
toad, rather than the camel, should be
tre prohibitionists' emblem. That this
animal can live for 119 days not only
without water, but in an absolutely
dry atmosphere, has been demonstrate
ed by Prof. F. G. Hall of the Uni
versity of Wisconsin.
"The scaly, impervious skin of the
toad prevents evaporation from its
body, it is found, while it's organs are
adapted to excrete insoluble crystals
of uric acid instead of fluid" is the
explanation given in the June issue
of Popular Science Monthly. "Any
water absorbed when the toad does
take drink, remains in the body,
keeping the blood fluid almost indefi-
nitely."

Navajo Indians Knew
Every Weaving Stitch
Before Whites Came

New Io.K, June 9.-The Navajo
Indians o. New Mexico invented ano
knew every known weaving stitch
long bef.re the coming of the white
man, says DR.. George Wharton James
who is an authority on Indian rugs
and blankets.
Writing in the June Mentor Maya.
zine, DR.. James tells the story OF
Navajo weaving, genuine American
contribution to the art of the world
vhich is only now generally being rec.
ognzed as such. DR.. James found one
of the rarest old rugs of his collection
III corral, where it was being used
TO wipe the axle of his buggy!
The best Navajo weaving was done
before the day of the trader, DR.
James says. The workmanship was
generally better, and the designs more
truly Indian. The Indians prepared
the wool, dyed it with natural colors
and were careful with the weaving
Thes. blankek stwere so well made
they would hold water. Later the In
dians obtained red blaze from the
Spanish, which they unraveled and re-
spun into yarn for their weaving
This gave them the rich red that Is
the dominant color in many of the OLD
blankets.
Indian weaving was demoraliZed by
the craze for Indian craftsmanship
that swept the country in 1890. The
traders pressed the Indians for a
greater number of blankets and more
startling designs. They furnished
them with aniline dyes and cotton
warps to speed up production. The
product of this period is badly made,
inartistcally colored, and shockingly
designed.
Now that the Indian fad is past, the
Indians are again weaving good blan-
kets. Blanket fairs are held. Taste
full design and good workmanship is
encouraged. 1t is possible, says Dr.
James, that better blankets than were
made in former times will be pro-
duced now Modern Indian designs
will never be equal to that of the
old blankets so long as the Indians are
commercialized, DR.. James says. The
design of a Navajo rug was infiu-
enced by many other considerations
than the purely decorative one. The
weaver drew upon the elaborate Nav
aho symbolism in which the sun, the
moon, the wind, rain-everything-
have a meaning. By means Of these
symbols she wove into the blanket her
hopes, aspirations, religious feeling,
all her innermost thoughts. While so
engrossed it was inevitable that the
blanket thus produced would be her
best work. Today, with no other mo-
tive than a traders order actuatingl
her, the weaver's design lacks the ar
tistic Importance of the earlier work. |

Ruble Has Low Value

Moscow, June THE Soviet ruble
has now reached such O low value
that cabmen, shopkeepers and other
persons refer generally to millions as
"leemons," or lemons. The minimum
fare for short cab ride is generally
"leemon," or one lemon.
In restaurant menus and other
price lists the final six ciphers are
generally cut off; for example, the
price of an order of beefsteak, really
100000 rubles is expressed as 800
rubles.

WHAT TO DO TO KEEP WELL .

How are we to keep well?" is a
question that the cities have been
asking themselves for some years and
working to answer the question, but
what are we of the rural communities
doing about it? Here is what the Ma
tional Council of Education and the
American Medical Association said
after they made an investigation Of
many farm communities.
'The physical condition of chill
dren in the rural communities is in
ferior to that of the children in the
crowded districts of our large cities.''
Statistics have shown this to be
true. So let us begin now in the
home and in the scmhool to teach
our children plain simple everyday
health laws.
1t has been said that with plenty
Of air and water we can livemanydays
without food, that with air and food,
we can live a few days withoutwater
hut that with water and food we can
live only few hours without air.
Now there are different kinds of
air. Stale damp or impure air lowers
our vitality, tears down the constitu-
ton, starves and poisonsf the blood.
Fresh ourc air is the kind we reed.
Keep the children out of doors. when
weather will permit. Give special
