| She picked up a yellow negiigse
that matched the pajamas, ana
went down the hall to the booth
which held the phone. The hotel
did not have room service.
She supposed Judy would be
calling to say that she was staying
out late.
But it was the long-distance op-
orator who spoke: Miss Melton:
Will you hold the line, please ?"
Then, to remote party: Ready
with your CALI
Sarah Anne ?" Such faint, far
off murmur.
"Corrinne, where are you?"
Back at school. It started day
before yesterday. But I'm not stay
ing. I want to join you"
"Not staying? But why : ot?
Don't you like it? There are other
schools. Of course you may leave!"
mo, Sally Anne, it isn't that.
Everyone's grand. Just don't think
I can stand it. It's-it's Bob Ran
SON."
"Oh-h-h!" Odd what man could
do to a woman. Odd and unfair,
too. What is it, honey?" she asked
softly.
"He wrote me a note-a horrid
one-and said he hoped he'd never
see me as long as he lived and a lot
Of things. And I don't know why!
He went off to visit someone before
his college opens. He said the
sooner he forgot me the happier
he'd be. But why? Why?"
"Have you called him or written
him?"
Both. He doesn't answer the
phone-sends word he isn't there,
and he returned my letter. So I'm
through with him! Forever"
Honey, we've just got a minute
to talk, but stay where you are.
Don't leave school. I'll be through
with this shindig next week and
I'll come right away. Promise,
won't you?"
II promise. 1 guess I just-need-
ed sympathy"
Sarah Anne replaced the re-

and Corrinne were taking turns
going up and down.
She left the booth to find Bob
Kennedy coming down the hallway.
He had changed back to khaki
flying suit. .
Showing Off" he said calmly, as
though they never had talked much
about anything more important
than the weather or the price of
spinach. Happy landings"

Lets pretend it's your birthday
Or Christmas"
He leaned forward, forgetting
the crowds and the merry go-rounC
calliope that was joining the gen
eral confagration of sound.
Remember what I asked you
once-to be friends when all of that
frenzy was done"
II remember"
"Well?" His eyes were waiting
She shook her head. mo, Bob
I'd rather not"
He looked stunned, as though she
had slapped him, and dull red
color crept under his collar. Even
in that moment she was aware of
the glances which were coming his
way-glances from women who ad-
mired his gray-blue herringbone
suit, the soft blue shirt that gave
its color to his eyes. his lean. firm
profile.
"You hate me so?"
Her eyes did not falter. mo, !
don't hate you at all. That's why"
"Then Sarah Anne, my sweet"
She was not smiling. Her face
was grave and tired. That's why,
Bob" She stood up and held out
her hand. "Goodby." She even
smiled then.
She walked swiftly across the
ground, not knowing that he stood
in the door of the pavilion. watch
ing her.
She felt old and weary and de-
feated. Bob did not understand her
at all if he felt that she could so
easily forget his words that night
at the lodge. He must think she
was the kind of person who would
really take such things in her
stride.
She decided to have tray in her
room instead of eating dinner in
the small dining room. She took a
warm bath. brushed her dark hair
and swirled it around her head, put
on fresh yellow crepe pajamas and
stepped into moccasins.
The dinner was appetizing, with
compete of iced fruit as an in
PRODUCTION. An old-fashioned sweet
potato pie and Drowned fried
chicken followed. There was a
green salad. an ice and pot of hot
coffee.
She ate slowly, sent the tray
downstairs, and tried to read. She
was scanning words which held no
meaning when knock came at her
door. When she answered it, bell
boy stood there.

phone, Miss Melton"

to show that medicine hardly pro-
gressed at all until the basic SCI
ences of physics and chemistry be-
gan to be exact. That is why we
insist today that no one shall be Ii
censed to practice unless he has
training in these subjects, an idea
which the sects in medicine do not
approve. -
Due to Applied Science
improvements in medical instru-
ments of precision are largely due
to work in applied science. In New
York this spring I saw a new type
of microscope which makes our or
dinary ones look like toys. And
there is yet a newer one, the ultra
microscope, that is based on an en-
tirely new principle. 1t magnifies a
hundred thousand diameters, where
our present instruments magnify in
the low thousands.
The electric knife in surgery
sprays high-frequency alternating
current into the tissue it cuts, so
that the tissue is electrically dis
infected and scared, preventing
hemorrhage and promoting heal
ing.
Radio men who were working
near high-power oscillating tubes
were found occasionally to develop
temporary fevers. This lead was
used to construct machine that
will cause artificial fevers for cura-
tive purposes. 1t does away with
the old cumbersome malaria treat
ment, and leaves no malaria behind
to cure when the treatment is fin
ished.
And we have just this year
learned that not only can we over
heat a human body with beneficial
results, but we can also freeze it
down to temperatures that cause hi
bernation. How valuable this last
treatment will prove is not yet
known.
Used Long Time
Radium has been used for long
time in medicine. 1t is only one Of
the substances, however, which
have the property Of instability.

tion you could project your person
ality into the body of one Of the So
called lower animals, how strange
you would feel!
ran across an account the other
day that fascinated me and set my
imagination going million miles
an hour. 1t was study of the sense
of taste in different animals made
by Professor Tangi, Of the Univer-
sity of Budapest.
Taste is a regresSive sense in man
since he tastes only with his tongue.
Some animals, such as fish, taste
with their whole body. An infant
tastes only with the middle of it's
tongue. The adults taste buds
spread out so that he tastes with
the side Of the tongue.
Makes No Selection
The whale has very few taste
buds and gulps it's food indiscrim-
inately, making no selection. With
cattle, taste is very important. They
carefully select the grasses they
like. A cow has about $4,000 taste
buds on the tongue, the antelope
$4,000, and man 5000. Think, my
fellow gustators, how wonderful it
would be to be an antelope! Some
Americans in their next incarnation
want to be Englishmen. Make me
an antelope with 47,000 more taste
buds!
We know four distinct tastes:
sweet, salty, bitter and sour. Sweet
is perceived on the tongue the quick
est because the buds reacting to
sweets are located at the tip of the
tongue. Then comes salty and then
sour taste. Bitter things are tasted
only at the back of the tongue. That
Henderson daily dispatch., 1939-07-18
EnIorging Scope
Of Our Senses

is why, when you taste something
bitter, you stick your tongue way
out to cool it and evaporate the Bit
ter taste.
Taste can be regulated. Hot cof-
fee requires less sugar than cold be-
cause warmth is a stimulant to the
taste buds.
No matter how much sugar is put
into ice cream up to certain point,
it will not seem too sweet, because
when cooled the taste buds hardly
function at all. These facts are i'm
portant with reference to feeding
convalescents.
The best way to get bad taste
especially bitter taste-out Of the
mouth is to rub the tongue with ice.
The sense Of smell is far inferior
to that of the lower animal. Your
dogs world is made up as largely of
odors as yours is of sights. A police
dog will follow a track for hours
after short sniff at piece of cloth.
That smell is like trail of red for
you. The females of butterflies and
moths attract their mates over a
distance Of miles by the sense of
smell. Carrion attracts scavenger
insects from long distances.
Ants probably perform all their
maneuvers- following trail to and
from the nest-by smell. The OBJ
jects Of the world smell to the ant,
round or angular, long or short.
A sense that is hardly developed
in man at all is the sense of pressure
Of the atmosphere. A crab in the
water knows it's way around by vari-
ations in pressure. The same thing
exists in the air, as witness the ex-
pertinent of the blind bat loosed into
a room crossed in all directions with
ropes. The bat flew in and out with
out ever touching a rope. The air
waves reflected from the ropes was
recorded by it's body surface and
guided it.
A whole universe can be opened to
us merely by charging the training
of our senses.

Optimism over the chances of re-

Inc association is not in position
to supply all of this extra amount,
we feel certain, however, that the
dlf1erence will be forthcoming from
people who have expressed their real
interest in the summer concerts
