Why THE TONslLs ENLAR0E

The tonsils, . . part Of the lynn

childhood than they are normally In

about twenty times heavier. AS this

Breaking Tradition

II came as something OF . shock to US, the other day,
to learn that Dwight Morrows class 1t Amherst college.
many years ago. picked him rs the student most likely to
succeed" in later years.
That came as q shock because most college classes
make such woefully wrong gucsses. They predict success
for some youth who Is destined TO become a shoe-string
salesman and remain one to the end Of his days: and If
ono OF their number has in him the stuff to win fame
and fortune they are almost certain to overlook it.
Indeed, as a general thing no worse omen can be cast
upon . young mans prospects than for his classmates to
pick him as the one most likely to succeed.
But they guessed right on Mr.. Morrow. Arc Amherst
students sharper than most?

Helm promptly retorts that he will run as independ-

nomination. But the odds are against his success Iii

In the first place. nomination in the Democratic
primary IN Alabama has been, for more than half a CEN

away from Smith and Robinson last year. What Ala

Give Birds Merry Christmas

While you're trying to spread Christmas cheer all
around, missing nobody entitled to that sentimental at
tention, don't forget the birds. Put out some feed fer
your little fcathered friends. too. Say Merry Christmas
to them with crumbs and seed and grain. And extend
the greeting through the winter to the time when re-
turning spring permits care-free foraging again.
The birds merit this little attention. They are q good
friend to man. II there were more of them there would
be fewer pests Of the bug and worm type to inflict dam
age on mans field and garden crops. There would be
crops of higher quality, free from parasitic infections.
for the practical purpose Of birds seems to be keeping
down insectivorous plant pests.
OF course, sentimental phase of bird life must not
be overlooked or discounted. The feathered little fell
lows have a value for their beauty and for their songs.
Pay them toll on that score also.
