Definite indications Of a breakup
in the heat in the northwest are
seen, was Lloyd's news. A new mass
or cool air from the northern Pacific
is moving over the Rocky Mountain
region-ldaho, Montana and Wyom-
ing, causing showers and cooler wea-
Their in that section.
The rains impending for the Mid
die West, Lloyd said, might be con-
sequentlal in some places" He de-
clared there would be Thunderstorm
er condition and local areas likely
would receive he avy rains, while 9TH
era would exercise only moderate
showers.
But the overwhelming high tenn
perature blanket, stretching across
the continent from the Rockies to the
Atlantic seaboard, swept into the
south.

There has been news from the
Baltic countries of the revival OF

When they talk about the
"quagmire of the West" they are
barking back to the Far Eastern

simple agricultural tools, which
are the same in Magyar and Chi

you will know that superlatives
are in order.
In the center of the gardens is
the Seventeenth century Villa
Castillo del Valentino, now a school
of engineering. The medieval vii
lage and castle. an artistic repro
duction of the Thirteenth century
manors and villages of the valley
of Aosta, adds to the interest of
the gardens.
In keeping with the garden as
pect of Turin are the numerous
piazzas embellished with flowers,
trees and statuary. Many of these
piazzas are porticoed, one of the
finest being the San Carlo and
the Carlo Felice in front of the
monumental facade of the mod
ern railroad terminus.
The palaces and churches of
Turin are exquisite. In the center
of the town is the seventeenth
century royal palace with its beau
tiful grounds. Then there is the
Palazzo Madama, formerly a thir-
teenth century castle. built over
the turreted remains of a gate Of
the Roman period. 1t has sim
ply magnificent facade. One Of
the least flamboyant buildings is
the San Giovanni cathedral, built
in sober Renaissance style.
Our favorite, though, is the
Palazzo dell Universita. The Turin
university is one of the oldest in
Italy for it was founded at the
beginning of the Fifteenth Cen
tury.
Nearby. just beyond the Via Pc,
is the wonderful edifice housing
the Academy of Science. The Pa
lazzo Carignano was once the
headquarters of the first chamber
of deputies of Italy. but now it
houses a fine geological museum,
a fact that causes many chuckles
from the cynical.

We know of few places where
the tabled past and the busting
present are more happily blended
than in Turin, the noble, bright
and gay capital of old Piedmont.
We have returned there time and
time again always to discover
some new enchantment and beau
tiful picture.
To begin with, Turin is more
symmetrically and regularly laid
out than any other town in Italy,
since nearly all streets intersect
each other at right angles.
Turin, like so many other 1tal-
ian towns, is one that clings to its
traditions. It was founded by
Julius Caesar and was called
Agusta Taur inorium by the
Romans. 1t has always remained
faithful to Rome, just as it was
always faithful to the counts of
Savoy, afterward dukes, then
kings of Sardinia.
It was in the Sixteenth century
that Turin became capital of Pied
mont. Today old Turin is full Of
bustling life in its busy streets. It's
wide, straight, tree-shaded avenues

velous Victory lighthouse and the
Sperga hill, where there is the
Basilica which contains the tombs
of the princes of the house of Sa-
voy.
To our mind, one of the beauty
spots of Turin is the series of pub
lie gardens, the Parco del Valen'
tino on the left bank of the Po.

dens are considered to be the most
beautiful public parks in Italy,

Obviously, a citizen cannot obey
two laws that conflict. because
when he obeys one. he disobeys
the other. When that happens, the
inferior law necessarily must give
way to the superior law. In such
cases, our Constitution specifies
that the Supreme Court shall de-
eide by comparing the two laws.
If it finds that they conflict it de-
clares the inferior law "unconStl'
tutional."
In no other way can we preserve
our system of government With
out such procedure, inferior laws
would replace superior laws and
nullify our Constitution, which

The sponsors invoked the sun

Scarification was practiced long
before the beginning of the Chris
tian era. Aurignacian and Mag.
dalen men, who hunted the woolly
mammoth, used to whittle a lot
on their persons, possibly more
durable than ours. This is known
to anthropologists from the paint
ings on prehistoric cave walls in
France and Spain. In many an

man wore in his upper lip.
MOST ADEPT
The Maoris of New Zealand
were the most adept in tattooing,
using processes which have since
been lost, and developing great
skill in decoration, unmatched
even in early-day China, Borneo
and India. Such marking of the
person is supposed to have started
with simple tribal and clan marks
in a day when identification might
save one from a too-casual club
wielder.
At this stage, the scientists begin
to lose the trail. No single coun-
try or place can be designated as
having originated the business OF
tinkering with the body.
The Aleutian Islanders worked up
one of the snappiest ideas. They
would bore hole in the cheek and
graft in a bunch of seals whiSkers.
The red-hot sports of the tribe
would have something like the
working end of a shaving brush
sticking out of each cheek.

for plastic work. Around the neck
of a young girl they would build

at maturity, the girl would have a

our time we see in the circus the
African girls of Tanganyika with
the pie-plate lips so eloquently
apostrophized by my friend, Dex-
ter Fellows. And it has been IN
our time that Chinese women have
stopped binding their feet.
The machine age has its draw

blue about how we are ever going
to get through our swarm OF
troubles. But, going a long way
back to the foggy beginnings OF
homo sapiens, our prevailing follleS

those tragic alterations Of the
past. On the general score OF
cruelty and stupidity we still seem
to be one up on the jungle folk.

The man who acts bravely in
fire or flood has been brave under
a thousand lesser strains. No man
was ever born a hero. The woman
who acts wisely under sudden pres
sure has chosen wisely in endless
forgotten decisions.
Much has been said Of "femi-
nine intuition"-tonS of trash
written about the mystery Of
feminine instinct. Phooey! There
is no such thing as feminine intui-
ton or instinct. Women may
seem to arrive miraculously at cor
rect conclusions y but actually
they do nothing of the sort.
Women, leading cooped lives,
have become great observers of
little things. Little things in their
surroundings. Little things in
human nature. And as women OBJ
serve little things they store them
up, bit by bit. Some day a need
ariseS-and the woman seems to
leap uncannily to sudden, wise de-
cision. AS a matter of fact, she
doesn't leap at all, but steps
swiftly and safely on the path
way of her stored observation and
deduction.

never do the right thing at the
right time. When a crisis comes,
you don't know which way to turn.
No matter how hard you try to
weigh values, you tumble, floun-
der and flop. But why?
Why can some people make up

Characters are not achieved in
emergencies. They are accumu-
lated little by little. Minds are
made up exactly as muscles are
made up. A fighter does not
sprout gigantic biceps at the stroke
of the gong. He creates those bi-
ceps by long, dull drilling. And by
equally long, dull drilling and dis
cipine, we create the fiber of our
minds and determine our future
reactions.
HEROES NOT BORN

become either brave or judicial. The
