First Uses for Sideboard

The dining room sideboard once
served a different purpose from that
of holding the family silver or glass.
The sideboard, known first as
credence table, held all the dishes that
were to be served at dinner. An
underling of the house then, in the
presence of the guests, tasted each
dish of food on the credence table to
make sure there was no poison that
might be fatal to the guests. But
gradually, as people became less
vicious and the desire to poison ones
enemy, or friend. became less Gus.
tomary, the credence was utilized for
the display of silver and table service.

Force in Expression

The expression, IAN unlieked cub"
is a strong, homely reference to per-
son who is crude, unpublished and I'M
developed, who must literally be licked
into shape by the attrition of lifes'
experiences.
The metaphor is one we have bor-
rowed from the world of zoology. 1t
is an allusion to the practice Of the
mother bear, who actually seems to be
constantly licking her cubs.
While, Of course, the cub is not in
reality licked into shape, still, an un-
licked cub is such bedraggled look.
ing spectacle as compared with one
who is, that the unlocked cub has
come to take on the significance II
has today, of something unfinished

There are many cases of so-called
miraculous showers in which the sub
stances found on the ground did not
actually fall from aloft. Thus some
alleged rains of blood are due to the
deposit of red fluid elected by certain
species of lepidoptera emerging stimuli

cocoons, and others to the rapid multi

"Plutarch's Lives; Caesar once, see

their arms and bosoms young puppy

making much of them, took occasion,
not unnaturally, to ask whether the

THEFT
RING PROBED
Loss of Two Cars Puts
Officers on Trail
OF Gang

Theft OF two automobiles on the
streets Of Brownsville Saturday and
Sunday nights has led police to
the belief that a gang Of car thieves
is operating in this section. and
motorists are urged to take pre-
cautions aginst having their cars
stolen.
A sedan belonging to Duff How
ard. manager OF the Gateway
bridge. was stolen from in front OF
the j. g. Penney store Saturday
evening. This car was q blue Chew
rolet sedan. 1929 model.
A touring car belonging to Car
DINA Gonzales was stolen from in
front Of the Morris Mortuary last
Sunday night. This was a green
Chevrolet. 1925 model.
Car thieves have been particular
" active over the Valley for the
past several months. However, in
dications are in most cases that the
cars were stolen by petty thieves
and stripped or tires and other
accessories. Most Of the cars have
been recovered.
The last two Jobs here. however
appear more like that of an organ
lied gang operating in this vicinity
Valley officers were searching fol
the two cars Monday. All roads
leading from the Valley have beer
recovered and unless the cars have
already left the Valley. II is likely
that thew will be recovered.

The controversy started early

pay rates for water that would COW

unpopular that West Brownsville
