Monte Carlo IL Number Mad; Digits Are
Picked at Random to Be Played on Wheel

The roulette wheel has made
Monte Carlo perhaps the most num-
ber-conscious community in the
world. People there have ever-alert
eyes for numbers between one and
thirty-six; they are always search
ing for portents, omens, indica-
tons from above which will re-
veal to them which number will be
favored by fate at the casino that
day. Generally, people bet on the
day Of the month, the number of the
hotel room, or their age, writes
David Even in the Globe Magazine.
Motor car licenses, when they
have q striking repetition Of one
digit, will frequently inspire people
to borrow that number for the day.
When, during the last automobile
sweepstake race in Monte Carlo,

the scattered groups Of deer head
ing for the river crossings. Then, in
the afternoon, the van Of the great
herd appeared. As tar as they
could see with the glasses marched
the battalions and regiments of the
army of caribou, on their annual
journey from the vast highlands
west of Ungava Bay to the sheltered
valleys of the south-one of the ZOO
logical phenomena of the world.
For hours the absorbed McCord,
Alan and Heather watched the
marching thousands, like great
herds Of cattle; bulls, cows and
fauns, all moving into the breeze.
Over them lowered circling ravens
and a golden eagle hung high in the
sky. On a hilltop off the tanks Of
the main herd. Alan's glasses re-
vealed for space the Sinking
shapes of a family of white wolves
watching for a struggling faun or
yearling.
For, like ghosts, the wolves follow
the migration south and, again
north, in the spring. And nearer.
from the graveled summit of a
ridge, two shaggy animals with long
bodies and bear-like heads, q pair
of wolverines, the most hated beast
in the north, viewed the spectacle.
Then for days the hunters toiled
at the camp on the river, preparing
the skins and meat to be taken
downstream in the canoe, and build

animals. BY night they had enough
chocolate-and-white faun skins for
their winter clothing and sufficient
meat to be cured and brought back
to the camp. But Alan and John
were anxious to see the main herd
which Napayo assured them was fol-
lowing these scattered bands-a
compact mass of literally hundreds
of thousands Of travelling caribou,
larger than the mythical buffalo
herds that once roamed the west
ern plains. So, leaving the Indi-
ans McCord, Alan and Heather
went back on the barrens.
As they left the scrub Of the val
ley and came out on the open tun-
dra above, to gaze over the rolling
moss-covered plain reaching away
mile after mile to dim hills on the
horizon, McCord gasped:
Look at those deer!"
In every direction bands Of carl
bou dotted the white moss tundra,
always moving into the light breeze
that blew from the west. On the
skyline Of an adjacent rise in the
barren line Of white-maned stays
were standing enjoying the breeze
that gave them relief from the pest
Of flies. Everywhere the amazed
eyes Of the three hunters gazed they
met moving groups Of deer. Does
with their parti-colored fauns, year
lings, old stays, all moving up-wind
as is their invariable habit.
The three travelled on farther
from the river watching the moving
deer when suddenly, out of little
valley, rushed band with their
peculiar, high knee-actioned trot,
snorting and grunting as they came.
Hear the click of their hoofs,
Heather?" cried Alan. ''They al
ways make it when they travel"
but, don't they see US? Why,
they're going to run right over usl"
exclaimed the excited girl, as the
band Of deer approached.
The two men smiled at the girls
apprehension.
Watch them when they get our
scent. You'll see some anticsl' re-
piled Alan.
Suddenly, as the band of ap-
preaching deer, whose eyesight is
poor, crossed the scent Of the hunt
ers, they recoiled as Il by word Of
command. Several young bucks
rose on their hind legs and pranced
back and forth, snorting loudly. The
band scattered and retreated. then

One Of the most amusing Incl
dents in Monte Carlo concerns this
indefatigable pursuit for lucky num-
bers among Monte Carlo inhabi-
tants. It was noticed at the English
church that every Sunday morn
ing the church would be crowded
until the preacher announced the
number of the hymn to be sung;
whenever the number was below 80,
the church would instantly become
half-empty.

Creaned Carrots Go French

French cooks have many culinary tricks which might well be practiced by every housewife. Their use of seasonings to add interesting new flavors to food is unique-but their effects can be duplicated quite simply in any given kitchen. In seasoning vegetables, meats and sauces, these fine cooks utilize a great many foodstuffs ordinarily thrown away-celery tops, coarse lettuce leaves, parsley. This method of achieving distinction flavors is not only thrifty, but sound-for nutritionists tell us the coarse outer leaves and greens often discarded contain the greatest amount of min- erals and vitamins!
 Tn this recipe for Dreamed Car rots, lettuce is used as a seasoning. The good green outer leaves, which
