The Grooming of Ants

Naturalists who have been studying
the habits of certain ants have discOv-
cred that the insects go through most
careful operations Of cleaning them
selves. Each ant performs this oper-
alton, not for herself, but for another.
She acts for the time as lady's maid
She stands by washing the face of her
companion and then goes over the
whole body. The actions of the ant
who is being washed show the utmost
satisfaction. She lies down with all
her limbs stretched loosely out, she
rolls over on her side, even on her
back. a perfect picture of ease. The
pleasure the little insect shows in be-
ing thus cOmbed and washed is really
an object lesson to many higher ami
mals.-Montreal Herald.

Early Warriors Made Use
of Both Bow and Javelin

Early warriors not only employed
the spear or javelin as missile, but
used bows and arrows with even more
deadly effect. The bow was invented
in prehistoric times, flint arrowheads
found throughout Europe and Asia in
dicating an age of from $4,000 to So
600 years or even greater for that
any record, writes John A. Menaugh
in the Chicago Tribune. had opposing
armies shooting at each other with
bows and arrows, yet as old as the
bow possibly can be. it is comparative
ly modern beside the first missile hurled
by the beastlike cave man.
Ancient bows were of many patterns
The crossbOw, a development OF the
ordinary bow, which came into general
military use In continental Europe
early in the Middle Ages, depended
upon q single, double, or even triple
bow of steel to propel its bolt;
missile shorter and heavier than the
standard arrow. The bolt of the cross
bow delivered a heavy blow at close
range but lacked the carry of the ar
row of the ordinary bow. 1t was the
Hundred Years war that brought the
bow to its point of highest develop
ment At Crecy, for instance, in 1876,
the long bows Of the English archers
outranged and OutshOt the crossbows
of the Italian mercenaries employed
by the French king. The English bow
yer could release dozen arrows In the
time required for a continental ar
balester to set his croSsbOw by wind
lass or lever and discharge a single
bolt.

SCOTTSBORO UP
To HIGH COURT
international News Service

The So-called ScottSboro cases,
in which seven Negroes were sent
enced to death in Alabama for
allegedly attacking two white girls
on moving freight train, were
before the Supreme Court again
today.
Two of the defendants, Clarence
Norris and Haywood Patterson,
appealed from convictions on
trials held after the Supreme
Court once set aside their convic-
tions and ordered new trials.
Their counsel assert their con-
stitutional rights were violated
because Negroes were systemati-
cally excluded from service on the
trial juries.
Attorney General Knight, of
Alabama, contends the first de-.
cision of the Supreme Court was
scrupulously observed on the
new trials and that the Negroes
were afforded constitutional guar
antees.
