Mechanical War Horse
Puts Out Old Dobbin

A mechanical war horse has been
produced by British manufacturing
firm which will solve the problem of
rapid transportation Of troops ever
bullet-swept areas. 1t is surprisingly
mobile; can turn around almost In it's
own length, ford stream, provided
the latter is not too deep, pass through
barbed wire entanglements, and climb
a bank up to As degrees slope. It Is
known as the Garden Lloyd, and
should put an end to the use of horses
in warfare. 1t holds two men and
can draw a trailer designed to carry
four men In comfort. It can dodge OBJ
stacles, run to cover, or follow a zig
gag course to escape fire with the
greatest ease. 1t is quite fast and is
equipped with special machine gun,
and. as it stands only half as high as
a horse, Its movements cannot readily
be detected even In open country.

qHE, WHY of
SUPERSTITIONS
By H. IRVING KING
CATS SUCKING BREATH

THERE Is superstition-cOmmon
i all over the country and one be-
lieved in probably by the majority Of
people, with at least half-belief-
that cat should not be left alone with
a sleeping infant as the cat is liable
to kill the child by sucking its
breath" This Is evidently an echo
Of the story of Isis and the misfor-
tunes which happened to infants with
whom she was brought into contact
during her search for the body of
Osiris.
The cat was moon-a animal. Isis
was the great moon-goddess of the
Egyptians. The cat and Isis were
intimately associated and Pliny says
that the moon may fairly be consid-
cred "as the planet Of. breath"-and
the breath to the ancient was the life
and the soul as WELL Now while
searching for the body Of Osiris Isis
came to the house of widow who
denied her admission. A scorpion crept
into the house and killed the Widows
child. Isis gave birth to Horis and
left him In swamp where she after
wards found him dead. Thoth restored
him to life. A king and queen took
Isis In and set her to nurse the child.
But they caught her burning away all
that was mortal Of the infant in order
to make him immortal.
Considering these unfortunate &C.
curences with regard to infants in the
career Of the moon-goddess, that the
cat Is her creature and that the moon
Is "the planet Of breath" the modern
superstition that cats suck the breath
of sleeping infants will be seen to
have ancient and legitimate pedigree.

The laws Of environment are not
definitely or unalterably fixed as are
the laws of heredtty. No one can be
justified therefore in blaming the form
er for adversities. When misfortunes
come to US, the conclusion we oft times
hastily reach may be expressed in
popular phrases such as these-"Just
my luck"-'fates are against me, no
good trying''-'I was not born under
a lucky star" This attitude of mind
naturally leads to self pity which is
dangerous for the reason that it robs
one Of initiative, persistence and de-
termination. Self pity Is one of the
most perilous receptions one can en-.
terrain. Cast 1t outl
Rather than blame environment for
adversities, why not ask the question
in frank honesty, just whose fault is
it? If this question Is asked seriously
another is inevitable. By no means all,
but a large share Of misfortune is
brought on by our own selves and
many times needlessly.
The desire for large wealth for In

otherwise one would not think Of TAX

ure might not part Of the response.
bility for the failure be with ones own
attitude Of mind? Instead Of being con.
tent with a modest income, our over
ambitious attitude of mind i1npels us
to hold out for unreasonable returns.
In the social world, friendship sought
for material gains soon goes to pieces,
and we cry, misplaced confidence"
and blame the other fellow. To what
extent is the lack of home training
responsible for moral failures of our
children? Much of the suffering due
to material and moral failures is
brought about by ourselves. Let US
face the question squarely-Whose
fault Is It?

But Jack Robinson was man whose

In fact, hardly had he been announced,
hardly had the servant who admitted
him spoken aloud his name than he

600 day. That sum must be invested
in some good. interest-paying project
every day.

Popcorn Back

Popcorn, like goldfish. has come
back to New York. A popular Item of
the red plush--Aays has returned to
favor, and the reason Is to be found
in the number Of new apartments
equipped with woodworking fireplaces.
Even in the homes without firepIaces,
popping corn is becoming something to
do. It Is fashionable because it Is
so simple, SO unsophisticated. Also,
sailed popcorn increases ones ca
pacity for drinking cocktails. In the
fireless homes, one may find elaborate
electric gadgets that pop the corn and
do everything but operate steam

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

TT is always interesting to debate
i the question whether environment
is a more important influence in life
than heredity. Without attempting to
answer the question, we assume for
the moment that environment is the
most important for the reason that
one has no control over his heredity
but he can to very great extent both
create and master his environment.
