Character ShotDn by
Manner of Laughing

"People who laugh heartily may
be trusted" said student OF psy.
chology recently. These people
laugh with the eyes and the whole
body as well as the vocal cords.
and they are usually generous and
sympathetic.
Laughter is sure Indication
Of character. The man who laughs
in his throat, with an almost
straight face, for example, is gen.
orally shrewd and cautious, and
not always prescriptions in his
methods.
Inside laughers,' whose shak.
ing shoulders express their mirth.
are good-natured, and make excel.
lent parents, while those who laugh
without a smile are hard-hearted
and cruel. People with little jerky
laughs are often of shallow charac-
ter, and are unable to withstand
temptation. They are, however,
often mentally brilliant.
people who laugh eXploSively
and loudly are not the hearty, bluff
creatures they are generally be-
lieved to be. 49,
"The large-hearted souls are
those who laugh but rarely, but
whose joy is reflected in eyes. lips
and face" ..r

Grasshopper Vane Not
Original With Faneuil

1t is generally conceded that
when Peter Faneuil caused large
grasshopper to be placed on top Of
Faneuil hall in Boston as a wealth
ervane, he did it in emulation Of
Thomas Gresham, who 176 years be-
fore had given his home city, Lon.
don, a handsome bourse for .mer-
chants, dedicated by Queen Eliza
beth, as the Royal Exchange and
crowned by the Gresham family
crest, gilded grasshopper. The
grasshopper had been adopted for
a crest by the Greshams obviously
because the name Gresham is re-
garded as a corruption of the Ger
man word for grasshopper, grass
HEINZ" Faneuil undoubtedly had
seen the London grasshopper and
liked it, so he chose it for the
building he gave to Boston. The
Faneuil hall grasshopper has fallen
to the street three times in its 1856
years existence, once in the fa-
nous 1855 earthquake, again in
1851 when the building was burned.
and finally in 1889, as a result of
getting entangled with the flagpole
halliards. After the 1866 tumble
demolished leg had to be replaced,
and in 1889 new glass eyes, as well
as horns and feet were required

Nomad Weauers

The inhabitants of eastern Asia
are, generally speaking, very ig-
norant class, education being al
most unknown. From the top Of
hill one may look down on a wide
valley some 20 miles in width and
observe a dozen or more black tents
woven of goats hair which are the
homes of nomad weayers. These
people, whose livelihood depends
almost entirely on their fiocks,
are forced, and have been forced
for untold generations to mo.
about from place to place In search
of pasturage. which is ever meager
in this land Of scanty rainfall. AS
one would expect, this mode of liv-
ing has made these people virile
race, strong in body, but entirely
devoid of culture.

Vinegar was first made from
wine, as its name indicates, at re-
mote period. Biblical writer's men,
toned it, and Hippocrates used 1t
as a medicine. BY the Sixteenth
century vinegar from grapes was
being produced in France for home
consumption and for export. In
England vinegar was first made
from malt liquors, method of dis
posing of ale and beer which had
soured. For this reason it was
known as "alegar." Although this
name has long since become obso-
lete, malt vinegar is still the stan
dard in the British isles. IT Is not
known, just when vinegar was first
made in the United States. certain.
ly very early as home product.

The world will face serious
shortage of timber within a few
decades, says Christian Storjohann,
q leading industry and forestry ex-
pert of Sweden. Sweden's efforts
to safeguard and maintain a future
supply of timber is in contrast, he
says, to the indiscriminate telling
trees in many countries. Russia still
has large forest reserves, but only
a small part of them can be utilized
because of lack Of transportation
facilities. Among the northern
countries only Sweden now keeps
the cutting of trees on a level with
reforestation. Steps to convert
waste and swamp lands into for
est area by draining are now also
being taken.

Work of Locksmiths
Encouraged BY Kings

The evolution of the lock in
France may be traced in great part
to the direct encour; cement given
to the craft by her kings. Il was
Charles VIII who I'm l4l1 made Il
compulsory for every locksmith ap.
prentice who aimed at becoming "A
master to produce "chef d'oeuvre"
lock of such degree that Il would
entail anything from one year TO
two in the making. The delicate
and intricate examples that are
treasured in museums are mostly
drawn from the test pieces, none of
which, however, bears the name of
the smith, though The majority are
sufficiently interesting to merit a
signature. The forge had little con-
nection with such locks and none
were cast in the rough. Great is
the ingenuity brought to bear on
them in order to display some hith-
erto unexpected device or to break
some fresh ground in ornament.
For strong boxes there were con-
trived locks that are a miracle of
fntricacy.
Under Francois i, an enthusiastic
patron of the locksmith, the craft
reached its summit, whence ii was
then to decline, If not in respect of
elaboration, at least in respect of
true beauty and feeling. Under
Louis XIII, who was so keen a
lover of fine ironwork that he him
self toiled at the forge and in the
workshop, the lock excelled in
point of mechanism and ingenuity,
but rapidly deteriorated from the
esthetic standpoint. 1t had reached
the point where the production of
puzzle and letter locks began to
take precedence of locks that rep
resented compositions of real artis-
tic quality.

Pet Cat Made Model
for Artists Li0ness

When Sir William Richmond, the
artist, was a small boy, his mother
took him to st. Paul's cathedral to
hear the singing, and he was diSGp
pointed because everything was SO
..oid and colOrless. He said to his
mother suddenly, perhaps one day
I shall decorate this placer" and
we can imagine how she smiled at
the thought of Willy coloring the
walls with box Of chalkS.
But the boys dream came true,
for somebody else thought with him
that the interior of the cathedral
needed color and decoration, and in
1890 Richmond, then famous
painter, was entrusted with the
work of designing mosaics to cover
the roof of the choir.
The westermOst of the three sau-
cerdOmes in the choir vaults repre-
sents the Creation of the Beasts.
Richmond had favorite cat which
loved him so much that she used
to attend him even while he had
his bath, and when he got out she
would crouch down and lick his
great toe adoringly.
She was not beautiful or valua-
BILE, but the grace Of her attitude
so charmed the artist that he de-
cided to use it in his great work. In
a panel near the Creation of the
Beasts there may be seen Adam be-
tween lion and lioness. The
lions are so true to life that when
they were shown to Zulu chief he
started and involuntarily raised his
hand to stab. But the lioness is
really a little tame cat licking her
masters foot.-London Times.
Connecticut RiUer
This name was given to the
river before the region was coll
onized. Connecticut was formed
from the first settlement near the
mouth of the river.
The same occurred In many other
cases-the Tennessee and the Mis-
souri, rivers, for instance.
The colonies and states near the
mouths of the streams took the
names Of the rivers.
When the first settlements were
made in what is now the state Of
Connecticut the region along the
upper Connecticut river was an un-
explored wilderness.-Philadelphia
Inquirer.

Take Time to Smile

Smiles are antiseptic. The honey
bees outnumber the hornets. In
suits, like mud, drop OF when dry.
Smile, or the spectators will think
you are q fiat tire. Laugh, or
other tourists will conclude you
have run past your garage.
Quit crying; too much of this
globe is salt water now. Borrow
some yeast and put it into your
dough. Laughing is the best way
of lifting the face and then one
side will not be higher than the
other. The strongest fort in the
world is comfort. There is no law
against laughing.-Exchange.

IN THE FRENCH DEPARTMENT

The English VIII class has just completed
a thoro study of all the most important Amer
lean writers and their influence on American
literature but the English students are not the
only ones who have to contend with literature
and authors. The French students are getting
their share too. Fifty-nine of the greatest
French authors during the 10th, 18th. 18th and
10Th centuries have been thoroy studied and
each French VI student should now be able
to name these authors and to tell why each
is important. his relation to French literature,
and some of his works. This class is also work
ing with French phonetics. Each major sound
used in the French language is designated by
a certain mark. These marks are substituted
in the place of sound they represent and the
words are pronounced according to the marks.
The purpose of these phonetics is to better the
Students pronunciation and eliminate all mis-
pronunciation. =:

to do their duty and all wondered who the Of

dents occurring through use of the automobiles.
Twenty five thousand people were killed by
automobiles in 1927" they said The point
was stressed that it was most necessary to be
cautious and observe traffic rules while driving.
The following rules were given as most inn
portant Stop at all arterfal highways; pedes-
TRANS keep to left of highway; bicycles remain
on the right; drive it'll both hands.
Mr.. Binney stated that the last rule meant
"no neckin'" hereafter ould be permitted He
illustrated the point with an experience of his
own which caused much mirth. A resolution
for more careful driving and less accidents
was read and approved.
