Mexico City, June %. (R)--Dis-
patches from Leon, where the flood
waters OF the Gomez river inundated
large sections Of the town, indicate
the distress has been somewhat re-
lieved by the arrival Of food trains
and Of clothing, medical supplies and
tent hospitals.
Soup kitchens have been establish
ed. Other large quantities Of neces-
stiles are on the way, but muddy
highways and the damaged railroad
lines are handicaping transportation
Portions Of the town are still
flooded. Bodies of persons drowned
continue to be found. No estimate
has been made of the number Of
fatalities. Houses weakened by the
flood are falling. One thousand
houses have already been entirely
washed away. The destruction Of all
crops in the region surrounding
Leon is reported as complete.
Bodies Are Burned
The burning Of the bodies Of the
dead continues. Refugees return
from the hills only to find piles Of
mud and debris where once were
their humble homes. These people
often are unable to learn the fate
Of missing rc1tivcs or friends, as
most of the dead could not be iden-
titled before the bodies were buried
or burned. Excelsior's correspondent

several hundred dead are lying under
the debris.

MANY DEATHS FEARED

London, June R-Meager de-
tails were available today regarding
casualties in a severe earthquake or
series OF quakes, which shook the
Mediterranean countries Saturday
evening.
In view Of reports Of the collapse
of thousands Of buildings it would
seem probable that casualties were
numerous.
Advices from Rome are that more
than 1000 houses on the island of
Rhodes in the Aegean Sea were razed
and that the villages Of Arkhangelo,
Arnima. Apolakkia and Nonolitho, suf-
fered severely.
The center Of the disturbance was
in or near the Cyclades or Crete.
The shocks are thought possibly to
have been due to the sudden activ-
ity Of = volcano on the Greek island
Of Santorim.
Communication Cut Off
At Athens, communications ap-
parcntly were broken by the shocks.
The quake shook northern Egypt
severely, causing great alarm at
Alexandria, Port Said, Cairo and Is
MALTA. Some advices are that many
buildings were thrown down while
others had their walls cracked. Few
casualties have been reported from
these places. There were several
fatalities in the Egyptian countryside
. fatalities in the Egyptian countryside
shaken but no damage or casualties
have been recorded. According to
late reports from Rome, 1000 houses
collapsed four villages of the
province of Foggia. Nothing was
said in the dispatch about casualties.
Malta seems to have escaped with
harmless shocks which, however
caused great alarm among the in
habitants.

May Day Festivities
Kept for Centuries

The origin Of the custom of celehrat-
Ing May day is lost in the mists OF
antiquity. The first day Of May has
been observed In some manner since
before the time of the Romans. In
Rome, May day fell within the period
which was sacred to Flora, the god
dess of flowers, and flower process
sions were common on that day. Me-
dieyal and early modern England

wreathe the Maypole. The queen"
chosen by popular vote. set up her
court in a dowery bower, which she
left at times to dance with her loyal
subjects. Tennyson's MAY Queen"
gives picture of these rural festivi-
ties. A custom, now almost disap-
peared, prevailed a generation or so
ago in this country in the hanging

We talked together in his Office, WIS.,

recently organized Larrowe Institute

Term "ScapsgOar' Is
From, BibEcaE Days

During the war, especially. many a
man was removed from Office or from
high command more as the victim Of
policy than for any sin or omission
Of his own. He was said to be a
"scapegoat," because he was. more or
less, suffering for faults that were by
no means all his own.
This passage, from the Bible, Illus
trates the present use of the term
"scapegoat" Aaron shall cast lots
upon the two goats; one lot for the
Lord, and other lot for the scapegoat,
and Aaron shall bring the goat upon
which the Lords lot fell, and offer him
for sin offering. But the goat on
which the lot fell to be the scapegcat
shall be presented alive before the
Lord, to make an atonement with him.
and to let him go for scapegoat into
the wilderness. And Aaron
shall lay both his hands upon the head
OF the live goat. and confess over him
all the iniquities Of the children Of
Il et putting them upon the
head Of the goat, and shall send him
away by the hand of ht man into the
wilderness And the goat shall bear
upon him all their iniquities unto a
land not inhabited and he shall let go
the goat In the wilderness"
Thus, through three thousand years
or more, has this pitiful picture of the
scapegoat come to US, TO be used to-
day as the symbol for man who Is
the victim, more or less innocent, Of
other peoples mistakes and errors.

A study Of the two columns Of fig
ures shows that there was oaly 3
small difference In the average capital
Invested In the two groups Of farms.
More intensive farming was practiced
by the farmers in Group They had
more livestock and more COWS per
farmer, per acre and per man. Their
enterprises made possible more hours
of productive work per farm.
A further study Of the figures shows
that the farms in Group produced
more efficiently than did those In
Group 2. The Group farms produced
larger crop yields-1226 against 500,
basing 1000 as an average. Group l
farms produced more butterfat per
cow-249 pounds per cow as against
2OT pounds. Or, to put 1t In terms Of
milk, approximately lila pounds per
COW as against SOFA pounds.
That brings us to the points Of the
lesson worth mailing down. These
points are as follows:
"a The intelligent, efficient feeding
good roughage plus a milk-making
grain ration practiced on Group /
farms, returned 1925 for every 500
worth Of feed fed dairy cattle. (2) On
the other farms only about half as
much, or to be exact, only $118 was
returned out of every $500 worth Of
feed. (3) On one group Of farms the
crops of sc acres plus purchased con-
centrates show yearly labor income
of 81 ,423-primarily because more In
telligent feeding resulted In receipts
of $225 from over 500 worth OF rough
age, farn-grown grains and pur-
chased concentrates (4) The other
group cleared only sos labor income
for IL months hard work, and had
receipts of only $11S from every 500
worth of feed.

Overlooking is as dangerous to

Foods difficult to digest, or which
overstlmulate, should be avoided by
persons whose work does not require
any particular amount of physical ex-

who do manual labor. And, inevitably,
