Piedmont sections showed good
stands" while those in the east
were in "poor" condition.
Tobacco, corn and cotton in the
central and Piedmont sections
were in excellent shape, but were

TOLEDO, June ID (UP)-Un-
ion workers walked out of the To-

a three-state area of 100000
population with complete stop
page of electricity for use in
homes and factories. Non union
employees, office workers and
minor executives worked the boil

can keep going was problematical.
Once the boiler fires die Toledo
will be without light and power
unless emergency lines are set up
to bring it in from distant points.
The secon. strike in eight days of
the Edison company's $50 opar-
ating workers developed suddenly
last night, the workers charging
the company violated the terms
of the agreement which ended the
strike eight days ago. Workers
voted unanimously to renew the
strike Immediately. Thousands are
threatened with unemployment in
factories in the Toledo area, de-
pending on the Edison company
for power. Every home in the dis
trist, embracing parts of Ohio,
and Indiana, including
twenty small towns, is threaten
ed. If the boiler fires go out, cleo

Psychology
BY DIR. JESSE w. SPROWLS.
Thymus Personality.

A BROWN mass of tissue called the
thymus gland sits astride the
windpipe beneath the breast bone.
This is known popularity as the gland
of childhood, because it Is most ac-
tive during the early years, and should
normally decrease in size and func-
ton at the onset of puberty. that is,
about the age of IA or IS.
This gland first became known to
the scientific world about 10 years
ago. At that time, and for so years
thereafter. it was supposed to have
something to do with nutrition. At
any rate, 1t was observed to diminish
in size with a decrease in the amount
of food taken into the body. It Is
therefore sort of food storehouse.
1t is known also to be intimately
associated with muscular develop
ment. At the same time, it acts as a
sort Of balance wheel for all the
other glands.
Adults with active thymus glands
possess rather striking personalities.
Physically, they retain childish fea-
lures. The face is round, plump and
hairless; the skin elastic; fingers and
arms dimpled; hair silky with ten
dency to curl: peaches and cream"
complexion; tenor voice.
The more important traits are, Of
course, psychological. The thymus
personality is generally retiring, ex-
cept in the presence of some trusted
authority. Then there is a tendency
to show off The man who has had
hard time getting away from his
mothers apron strings is pretty likely
to be thymo- centric. The thymuS type
dotes on telling of his adventures
and experiences, many of which smack
little of something approaching
unconscious falsehood. One might
regard this sort of conversation as q
compensation for feelings Of tnferi-
ority.

edges Of the water. Their favorite
spot we have found. is along the
tributaries of Crabtree Creek on the
north side of Raleigh, but their cousins
have wider range, and are well known
through the Eastern States.
Rarely over feet in length, slender
IN build, dark brown above and bright
yellow below, you cannot help but see
the fisherman hanging motionless
above the murky waters. Like all ex-
pert anglers, the queens have learned
that silence pays. Pretty soon a green
head will poke above the water for
fresh air. That is where the watchful
waiter reaches down with unerring
aim, and that is the last known of
the croaker.
If disturbed, these fishermen take to
the water, make a deep dive, and re-
main out of sight during the time they
decide is sufficient for the intruder to
lose interest. Then the queen will
swim back to its fishing post, and re-
sumo the same tactics of watchful
waiting that serves so well.
These reptiles have not disturbed
our peace Of mind. They eat cold
blooded creatures and are not poison
GUS. Their aim in life, as is the case
with most of our snakes, is to get away
from you, and put as much space as
possible between you and them. They
are not towards. In fact, they are
rather spunky and hold their ground
valiantly. Their teeth are sharp, and
capable Of making painful, but not at
all dangerous wounds.

the coat, and while 1t should GER
tainly incorporate style, it should not
have any trick" touches, which are
quickly outmoded and look grotesque
after little while.
The overcoats illustrated are both
very smart and their style is Of the
sort that will endure FOR some seasons.
They incorporate the very best in
current fashion and have essentially
good lines, at the same time embody-
ing complete practicability.
The coat on the left is town ulster
in an overplaid pattern. This coat
is perfectly suited for town wear and
at the same time is quite appropriate
for the country. Its length makes it
valuable for driving a car on cold
days, as it covers the knees, and this
feature also makes it attractive for
attending foot ball games and other
outdoor Winter exhibitions, such as
hockey.
The generous ulster collar affords
ample protection from chill Winter
blasts, and the high button over the
chest has obvious advantages.
The coat at the right is a town
overcoat suitable for daytime business
wear and also appropriate for dress
wear after dark with evening clothes.
1t is a dark blue guards type coat
and carries half belt in the back and
an inverted pleat which runs from
the small of the back to the hem.
This coat is cut closer to the figure
than the ulster and its general ap-
pearance is more formal. The intro
duction Of the inverted pleat permits
Evening star., 1935-11-29

complete freedom while walking. while
preserving the beauty of the tailoring.
The guard coat is modelled on the
lines of the overcoats worn by the
officers Of the crack English army
unit, the Brigade of Guards.
The model shown here rolls to the
bottom button, a fashion originally
introduced by the Prince Of Wales
and the Duke of Kent on double
breasted suits. Its adaptabiilty for
overcoat use is demonstrated salts
factorily in the sketch. With it a
bowler hat looks particularly well, but
q homberg such as is worn by the
man in the ulster might also be used
to good effect.
1t is always a smart touch to wear
flower in the buttonhole of the over
coat. A further advantage is the fact
that it prevents the flower from being
crushed, as it would be if worn in the
suit buttonhole under the overcoat.
OF course. it is only a moments work
to change it from the overcoat to the
suit when going indoors.

exclaimed Farmer Browns Boy. "I
saw you two yesterday getting your
Thanksgiving dinner at my feeding
shelf, but I had an idea that you
would move along today. I wonder If
you are really going to stay for the
Winter. If you are, you won't have
to go hungry. I'll see to it that there
is plenty for you to eat on that shelf
every day"
OF course, Winsome and Welcome
didn't understand what Farmer
Browns Boy said, but you might have
thought that they did by the way Win
some whistled and Welcome sang. You
see, there is happiness with a full
stomach, and happiness always seeks
expression. And if they were happy,
Farmer Browns Boy was no less
happy. Once before he had helped
Welcome Robin spend the Winter in

TT WAS the day after Thanksgiv-
ing. 1t had been a real franks
giving for Welcome Robin and
j Winsome Bluebird, not to men,
ton other feathered friends. You see,
there had been a splendid Thanks
giving feast spread especially for them
on a broad shelf at one of the win
dows of Farmer Browns house. The
clouds had been blown away. jolly,
round, bright Mr.. Sun had climbed up
In the blue, blue sky and melted the
snow that had clung to everything.
Early Thanksgiving morning, before
he had discovered that Thanksgiving
feast, Welcome Robin had been in de-
spair. He had wished with all his
might that he had gone South as Mrs.
Robin and the children and the other
Robins had done. Now all was
changed. He was glad he hadn't gone
South. He said as much to his cou-
sin, Winsome Bluebird.
"It's all settled, so far as I am con-
eerned," said Winsome Bluebird.
What is all settled?" asked We'll

stand.

How is it settled?" asked Welcome

here through the Winter"

you really mean that?" he asked at
last.
Winsome nodded, IT certainly do,"

they don't do a fellow much good

Are you sure there always will be
enough?" asked Welcome.
