there are four major types Of human

DR.. Landsteiner has been studying the

BY the Associated Press
TOXIC, November l4.--Emperor Hiro-
hito, setting an example OF economy in
these hard times, has ordered the Inn
perial household to dispose of q dozen
imperial residences, among them the
famous Nagoya Castle
That fine example OF japanese feudal
architecture. with Its massive walls and
curving bronze roofs, will, however,
continue To draw tourists to its watch-
towers and inner citadel The city OF
Nagoya, jealous Of It's choicest land
mark. has agreed to take over mAinte-
nance of the old stronghold.
The castle was built in l6Il-i3 by
Kato Kiyomasa, mighty baron when
Japanese knighthood was in flower. Il
passed later into possession OF the To-
kugawa Shoguns, who ruled japan until
60 years ago, and then became an I'M
perial residence. Emperor Hirohito
spent q. night there two years ago when
he was travelling to Kyoto for his corr

The imperial retrenchment prograsn
includes the sale also of palaces ace

mission has been granted by Miss
Beatrice Lacey Of Bournemouth, Eng
land, for the publication of the diary
Of her brother, the late Howard Lacey,
who for more than 40 years was q
prominent ranchman of the Kerryille
section. Mr.. Lacey won international
distinction in scientific circles for his
studies of bird and insect lift in South
west Texas. His work won recognition
by the Smithsonian Institution and

Mr.. Lacey came to the hilly and re-
mote region Of Southwest Texas in the

of land, which he stocked with cattle.
He was q graduate of Gains College,
Cambridge, but he quickly fell into the
spirit Of the frontier and made friends
with ranchmen for many miles around.
From the time he located in this Sec
ton he began study of the wild life.
From day to day he recorded his OBJ
servations and discoveries. 1t is this
diary that Is to be published soon under
the auspices of the Witte Museum of
San Antonio His research work dealt
particularly with migratory birds. He
was q member of scientific societies in
England and America, and collaborated

said to be one Of the most complete in

came to school, he made the ac-
quaintance of both while learning his
letters and making friends. Whenever
student, far away from the teacher
misbehaved, down came the long stick
on his shoulder or whatever place the
teacher chose to chastise. The nearer
pupils received the short stick with
equal vigor. And II the student persisted
in irritating the teacher, he was called
to the platform, held down by the
teachers helper, while the former adj
ministered with force 40 or more lashes

Beating had been for long the only
method of correction in Turkey. The

are many proverbs in the Turkish lam
