jaDanese Are 10 Gei One
 Cotfon Towel Every Year;
 Rules, Regulations Altered
By JACK STINNETT

WASHINGTON, Nov. 26. - Note on Oriental hygiene:
 According to word received here, the Japanese government has al tered it's rules and regulations and the people hereafter will be all lowed only one cotton towel a year instead of one every three years, as previously.
 The new regulations, it is re- ported, came as the result of widespread complaint. When the one every three years rule was invoked, the Japanese, at their daily ablutions, had to use "er- satz'' towels The cotton was need ed for war materials. This might have been all right had not the towels had a way of dissolyine into moist nothingness. Hence the complaints and hence the new rul- ing and a permit for each Japa- nese to have one cotton towel 9 year.
 Now it can be told Note: Ar absentee voter friend from Cali fornia tells us that the presiden- tial election ballots of that state are printed under specifications oi law, the candidates names appeer- ing in alphabetical order just under the name of the party for the re- cent election, he says, ran like this: Prohibition - Roger w. Babson Communist-Ear Browder Pro- gressive-Norman Thomas; Demo- cratic-Franklin D. Roosevelt; and Townsend- -Republican-Wendell l. Willkie.
 Ditto Note: At one midwestern city where the Willkie train stopped, two prankish newspaper men climbed on a truck with the five-piece brass band that was supposed to provide incidental mu- sic for the speech-making. After 2 lot of preliminary, gracious insinu- ation, the jokesters prevailed upon the band to play a request number The timing was perfect. Just as MT. Willkie made his appearance, the band blared forth the request Happy Days Are Here Again. Man who laughed heartiest as being introduced with Roosevelt's old campaign song: Wendell L. Will kie.

ance of the building and added
greatly to its usefulness. Mr.. Will
liam d. Lewis. the librarian. feels
that the stacks, all above ground, are
the biggest help i'm convenience and

uary 20.

What highway transportation
means to the people OF the United

that in this country there are 1892
communities that depend wholly on
motor transport and that are not
served by rail. The combined popu-

than 1874 500. according to the Off
cial census of 1880 That exceeds the
combined population OF the twelve
states Of North Dakota, South Da-

Neyeda, Washington and Oregon.
These communities are not gather
ed in any part of the country but run

Nearly every ono who has any In
terest In nature at all recognizes the
willow trees because they are so
distinctive. Most Of them find their
way or are planted close to water.
Their preference for moist locations
makes them important conservation
list. Of valuable land.
There is no need to ask how the
willows manage to travel 50 far.
All you have to do is to inspect the
lifebelt fastened securely about the
middle Of each seed baby. But that
Is not the sole reason for their in
crease. If you stick a stem of viii
low in water on moist soil the first
thing you know tiny rootlets are
feeling their way into the world.
If you have willow branches in a
jar Of water you can see how fast
these small roots grow. Plant the
stem in a cool. moist spot and you
will soon have q hourishing willow
tree. With such q gift for adapta-
bility naturally these trees and
shrubs have made a success Of life.
In the genus Salix there are about
800 species besides many hybrids be-
tween closely related species.
