Not Redskins, but three more
pigeons bit the dust" for Fred Sols-
son, Hastings, Pa. sharpshooter. who
WAS standing on his head at the time
Master OF any trick shot you can
think up. Soisson's upside-down pig
confusing with \ shotgun Is one Of
the most amazing feats Of his roper
toire.
Last year Scissor, standing right
side up, broke Ill clay pigeons in
succession and established the high
est score ever made in the Allegheny
Skeet League. 1t was the third time
he had ever tried his hand at the
sport.
Scissor shoots just as consistently
sitting or lying down as he does
standing. Catch him nat on his
back, and he can break five pigeons
thrown into the air at once.
Most dif1icult feat in Soisson's own
opinion Is to throw three clay pigeons
over his shoulder. whirl around, and
hit al three before they touch the
ground.
Scissor trains like an athlete to
keep his faculties sharp; he attributes
much Of his skill to an ability to snap
focus" his eyes from a near object
to 4 distant one, or vice versa.

Marion Anderson in Duluth

Marion Anderson captivated a
huge audience at the Armory Fri
day, April 22nd. She rendered sew
eral numbers in conjunction with
the Duluth Symphony Orchestra.
Miss Anderson held her listeners
spell-bound from the time she ut
tered the first note and until the
echo of the last one had died out.
Miss Anderson gave no encores
until after her last song. She then
gave four, and the audience called
for more with their loud applause,
but Miss Anderson graciously re-
sponded with several bows. Miss
Anderson was accompanied by the
Duluth Symphony until her en-
cores, at which time she was &C
.companied by her own accompanist.
Mrs. Ann Albright conducted
Miss Anderson on shopping tour
through our business section. After
the shopping tour Mrs. Dorthea
Nichola drove Miss Anderson
around the Boulevard and other
places of scenic interest.

PauliteS Take
MantOux Test

A total of 125 persons reported
for Mantoux tests, a medical meth
cd of determining the presence of
tuberculosis, this week, at the
Halle @. Brown House where facil-
tiles were made available by the
Ramsey County Public Health As
ISOLATION.
Results of the tests will be avail
able following readings of them to-
night friday. Also there will be
a public meeting at the same time
when DR.. W. A. Dovorak will speak
at 8 p. m. on Dental Hygiene.
The next tests given will be on
Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday
of next week, beginning at p. m.
All tests are given by DR.. ]. w.
Crump of the Health Week Com
mittee, with the assistance of Miss
Margaret Turpin, registered nurse.
The test itself is given by ap-
plying harmless liquid called
tuberculin in the upper surface of
the skin. The spot caused by the
liquid soon disappears and leaves
no mark or scar.
If the spot becomes red within
two days it might mean that tuber-
culosis germs are lodged some
where in the individuals body. It
does not necessarily mean that the
person has an active case of the
disease or ever will have.
According to sponsors of the
testing, only an X-ray examination
can tell whether the germs are few
or many or whether they are caus-
ing any damage. Persons with
positive reactions to the test should
have X-rays so that an early in
lection may be discovered before
any serious damage is done.

Varying Manuscripts of
Arabian Nights Recalled

The Arabian Nights, or the Book
Of the Thousand and One Nights, is
an extensive and remarkable col
lection of tales, forming an inpor-
tant part of Arabic literature.
The Nights were first made known
to Europe by Antonio Ga1land, a
French orientaliSt, who obtained
manuscripts in the East, says a
writer in the Cleveland Plain Deal
er, supplemented them with tales
taken from the lips of professional
story-tellers and published his col
lection in IL volumes between 1704
and TIT. The stories were trans
lated from his French into many
other languages and thus became
widely known.
Though the authenticity Of the
tales, as published by Galland. was
at first doubted by European schol-
ars, ample substantiation has been
supplied since, and many widely
varying manuscripts of the Arabian
Nights have been found.
Tracing their ultimate origin has
been more difficult. The great va
riety of the manuscripts is due to
the gradual growth of the collection,
undoubtedly contributed to by many
tale tellers and in different centers.
Certain references in old eastern
writer's indicate that the framework
and the earliest tales are Of
Persian origin.
Internal evidence has led scholars
to believe that some thirteen Of the
stories were committed to writing
as early as the Tenth century, and
may have been extant long before
that. The collection as a whole is
assumed to have taken definite
shape in the Thirteenth century,
while there are a few tales which
may be as late as the Sixteenth CEN
fury.
