A woman often exclaims,

MEANING OF
WORD

MOST people believe that the

the word new" Although news
means literally information which
is new, the word really comes
from the initials of the four
points of the compass.
Before the days of newspapers,
bulletins were displayed in public
places giving the important hap
penings of the time. All news
from the North was placed on a
bulletin marked IN" from the
East on the "E'' bulletin, and in
similar manner from West and
South.
Later the four bulletins were
combined, and all the information
was given under the four assem-.

FOOD SUPPLY
MANAGED
nIHE greater need for thrift and

NIFIE greater need for thrift and
l. conservation throughout the
civilized world is emphasized by the
predictions recently made by Sir
Daniel Hall, English scientist. that
mankind rapidly is approaching the
time when our food supply will be
overtaxed. He pointed out that the
white population OF the world is
increasing at the rate of 5,000,0 900
a year. His estimate of two and
half acres of ground as the neces-
sary amount to produce the food
required for each unit of population
means in a general way that the
white man alone is demanding 12,-
100000 acres of new tillable land
year.
Meanwhile the destruction of agri-
cultural products from insect pests
is growing. DR.. L. o. Howard
chief of the United States Bureau of
Entomology estimates that the in,

alone amounts to 100000 an.

LENGTH OF
FEET

A VERAGE length Of the Ameri-
n can woman's foot is nine and
two-thirds inches.
No, Heleise, this is not the guess
of some Grabbed misogynist. 1t is
the cold, absolute fact revealed in
a report made here by Edward
Freschl, president Of the Holeproof
Hosiery Company. That dainty
little foot may seem to be about
five inches long, but it is probably
nearly twice that. If it is less
than 9.65 inches long, it is smaller
than the average.
