Q. Do snakes charm their prey in order to
catch it? r. NJ. c.
A. The popular belief in the power of poi
sonous snakes to charm their victims into a
state of helplessness has no foundation. 1t
is said, however, that under the influence of
excitement the birds or small mammals are
forgetful of everything surrounding them,
and in this state they venture too near only
to be hit.
Q. When did the French occupation OF the
Rhine begin and when did the American
troops leave? NJ. H.
A. The French occupation Of the Rhine
land commenced January II. 1928. The ad-

Essen at 4:45 o'clock of that morning The
American troops left the Rhineland in Janu-
ary 1928. The United States flag was low

Q. Is ancient Hebrew spoken in Jerusa-
lem? G. f. w.
A Owing 10 the efforts of Ben Yehudah,
an enthusiast for Jewish nationalism, the an
cent Hebrew is being revived. This Ian
guage was not spoken even so late as the
time OF Christ. In those days the inhabitants
of Judea spoke Aramaic. For more than
forty years Ben Yehudah has worked. Be
sides all his propaganda in the schools in
the press and on the platform, he set 10
work on a tremendous lexicon or thesaurus
in ten volumes. almost as great work as
the great Oxford dictionary on which a corps
of English scholars have been at work for g
generation. He died with that work uncom-

through the laying on of the apostles
hands the Holy Spirit was given, he Of
tered them money, saying, "Gipe me also
this power, that on Whomsoeper l lay
hands,, he may receive the Holy Spirit"
But Peter said unto him, "Thy money per-
ish with thee, because thou hast thought
that the gift of God may be purchased

lot in this matter, for thy heart is not

God if perhaps the thought of thine heart

depend for flour on the reserves In
grain elevators? Answering this, Its own
question, the Jacksonville Times-Union says
that there would be a nationwide cutlery
against the peril OF such situat1on'> ana
that even If the production were one
fourth of the consumption, there would
he grave anxiety and protest. yet i'm
portant as the products Of the forest are
in modern civilization, people learn with
compacency that the forests are being
used UP four times as fast as nature can
renew them-four times as fast as the
trees still standing can grow"
The analogy should be particularly i'm
pressive to Georgians, whose State has ex-
hausted all but one-twentieth OF It's orlgl-
nal timber supply and whose remaining
store is being fast depleted for want OF
wise forest policy. They should appre-
ciate, too, recent saying Of Mr.. Charles
Lathrop Pack president OF the American
Tree association, that if eighty-one million
freight cars were idle in this country or
If eighty-one million men were out OF
work, there would be general consterna-
ton: "But the fact there eighty-one
million acres of idle land for the most
part east of the Mississippi fit only for
growing trees, does not interest the public
as it should" In Georgia there are vast
areas of cut-oYer lands, unsuited to agri-
culture but valuable beyond measure for
raising timber crops. Why not enact a
forestry law that will encourage such pro-
duction?
How imperative it is for the United
States as a whole that there should be
systematic efforts to grow new reserves of
timber, instead of diminishing the present
supply with never thought to the future
will appear from a glance at the record OF
the increase in the use of wood products
AS one authority states it, I'm 1870 the
population of this country a little
more than thirtyeight million five hundred
thousand Now it is estimated at more
than one hundred and seven million. The
next census, that of 1882 will probably
show about one hundred and fourteen mil
lion persons inhabiting this country-three
times as many as sixty years ago. Every
decade adds to the number and variety of
the uses of wood. Sixty years ago, for
one instance, paper was made Of rags, and
there was not near as much paper used
per capita then as now. Every person,
as he grows in wealth. uses more wood in
one shape or another and the growth of
wealth in this country has been something
phenomenal in the last half century. Yet,
with all this increasing drain on the re-
sources of the forest there have been prac-
tically no attempts made to replenish the
supply"
Every state, certainly every one east of
the Mississippi, has urgent reason to act
upon this situation, not only by conserving
it's present timber resources but also by
providing new reserves against the lean
years ahead On none does this need lie
more imperatvely than on Georgia, which
has twice as many forest fires as any
other state and which, for want of an
adequate policy OF conservation and re-
punishment OF forests, is losing a major
source OF its prosperity

TN this play the center is
considered the same as a
forward. When the ball is
taken out of bounds on the Of
fenslve end line by a forward,
the other two forwards limo up
side by side directly in front Of
MIN at the sevcuteen-foo line. The
opposing guards win cover them
in that lineup.
Upon a signal from the forward
who has the bali out Of bounds,
the two forwards spread as in

the pass going from the forward
out Of bounds to the guard.
The difficulty Of the play is in
the guard freeing himself from his
opponent. However, most guards
are able to do this by means of
sudden start and n fast run.
The idea of the play is to spread
the opposing defense in SUCH a
way as 10 create a hole In front
Of the basket through which the
guard may go to receive the pass.
However. the pass may also go
to either Of the spreading for
