Biography is called nindi dual when Nole book
devotes itself to the life Of but person. It Is
called to distinguish it from collective" btog-
raphy, which is the term applied to a book which
person. Inaanuch most Of recorded history is
human history,and since nearly all historical events
have conferred about 81 persons, the field of
biography is closely related to that Of hi story
Doubtless the type Of biographical work most
1y familiar to is that which tells the life story
of some person who played his part in shaping the
course Of human prog ress.
The order in which biographies generally
ranged the shelf Is determined not by the

It has been called to our attention that request
has been made of Walnut HILL Dairy, which if granted
would set precedent jeopardi zing the remarkable
success Of the Milk Club in providing its members
with milk at rock bottom prices. And it would add
nothing to the value of the service being rendered.
Twelve thirteen ladies would like free trans
portation to H1icott City for the purpose of visit
ing the Walnut HILL plant.
Let's consider what good would of such
milk delivered. State and county official regula-
tions already reassure far effectively than
a group of l-intentioned, but unframed, women
could. The contract with the Milk Club requiring
per cent butter fat added to the official control,
gives extraordinary protection to the consumer.
As far as that goes would the average housewife
be able to tell if certain sized cooler meets the
cooling efficiency requirements of the county and
state health regulat1ons7 Would she bacterim
if she met face to face?
And would the Lack of SNOWY glass brick lobby
urnis shed in omiu and scarlet furn detract
anything from the efficiency of the essential expen
sive equipment which to unframed eyesmght look in
significant without those refinements Larger dair
les all the country have been known to furnish
free bus Rides free entertainments, free refresh
ments. They have given away little Bibles. They
have put pretty pictures cheese glasses, and
sery rhymes on milk bottles. One dairyman offered
to take lady's friends a picnic whenever and
wherever they wanted to go; being very rude and
perhaps naive person she had to ask Thy? Who foots
the bil1?n
More and more consumers are asking such questi ons.
The very creation of the Milk Club is answer to
such que sti oning.
We wanted the cost of milk to be based only
cost plus legitimate profit to the distributor
We wan ted to eliminate just such items the cost
of using three and three perhaps half day
to take dozen a sightseeing trip.
We were all willing, in fact insisted, that
needed to provide the most careful professional
spection be included in the costs. But insisted
and We consumers must continue to inststwst agrees
sively, that not be taxed and two cents an
item (ten or twenty per cent? for nice sounding
words, pretty pictures, and f1attering attentions

Let's not be set on having our way;
Let's let the other side have its say;
Let's not retend that we're omni scient;
Let's admit that others are efficient;
Let's not argue; let's not fight;
Let's find out if the other guy's right;

Today was reading the ornamental flower garden
notes which sent to me through the kindness of
the Extension Horticl turist, Dr.. Ballard, from the
University of Maryland. There number Of In
teresting things in the notes, but especially
interested in the section headed NJ" Fragrant Garden"
I think shall quote that section in its entirety
in the future, but this afternoon I'm off on
another track.
DR.. Ballard names many fragrant flowers, vines,
shrubs and trees--al of which would give my two
front teeth to possess, but in naming the shrubs, he
stops at lavender. Now, people who stop at lavender
wi thout mentioning rosemary make feel like the
parents of twins when one is admired and the other
ignored. lily lavender and rosemary have been happy
garden friends for 50 long that cannot bear to
toll the and forbear to mention the other. Both
to from friend who loves them both and to
they are interchangeable In Fragrance and beauty.
Since Dr.. Ballard mentions lavender, mind if
mention the rosemary? 1t is an evergreen shrub with
aromatic glossy-green foliage, wite-felted under
meath. Tt is not member Of the Rose family, but
takes its name from the latin ros-marin,m, sea-
dew, owing to its fondness for water There is
siderable and folklore in connection wi tn
rosemary. In olden times it believed to possess
stimulating influence the memory, and became
known as the nherb of memory". ophe1ia, poor mad
creature, says pathetically, nThere's a rosemary,
that's for rmembrance pray you, love, remember. ."
Tt also used at Christmas to deck the banquettng
hall, and the boars head. There is legend that
the Virgin Mary spread the linen of the Holy Child
bush of rosemary, and in memorial the rosemary
flowers on the day of His passion. With the Romans
1T occupied interes sting place in their decorations
and ceremonies Guests at banquets crowned with
its their famous heroes crowned wi tn
laurel. They planted it tombs they supposed
its odor helped to preserve the bodies of their
dead.A relic of the custom used to be observed in the
north of England, when sprays of rosemary
-iee in funeral processions, and cast the coffin
in the grave. Rosemary is favori with the bee
and honey taken by them from its flowers is highly
priced.
In the garden where ny rosemary first lived, there
IS a hedge about five feet high. line Will never
sport a five foot hedge of it, fear, for keep
mine constantly rruned. hesitate to mention it in
uti1itarian manner latter all the lovely legends
ascribed to it, but few leaves Of rosemary gives
grand flavor to gravies and stuffings. Pardon the
sudden exit of the gardener and the sudden entrance

n IT.-Hurry-up Yost is still
- wearing the same old Will Rog-
ers grin. The man, who came to
Ann Arbor as head coach with Willie
Heston 40 years ago, today as ath-
letic director looks at Tom Harmon,
one of the greatest running backs
of all time.
Forty years ago Wolverine sup
pOrters, chanting 'The Yellow and
the Blue" looked upon Willie Hes
ton as the nonpareil. Today the
sport-loving city of Detroit can't be-
lieve that Heston was another Har-
mon.
AS long as both belong to Michigan
football history, Yost merely grins.
"What about an all-time Michi-
gan backfeld," he asks, with Ben
ny Friedman at quarter, Heston and
Harmon at the halves and Johnny
Garrels at full? What other all-time
college backfeld could ever equal
that bunch? Name one"
The closest we could think of in
cluded Thorpe, Calac, Guyon, and
Hudson or Mt. Pleasant at Carlisle
or Gipp, Sav0ldi, Eichenlaub and
CarideO or DOrais of Notre Dame,
not overlooking Marty Brill.
The Michigan collection still
leads.
The Harmon Case
When you get right down to the
facts in the case, Tommy Harmon Of
Michigan has already proved his
place in the football roundup.
In the 81 or more games of his
career he has been star at almost
every start. They have checked
him and there as Bob Zuppke did a
year ago. But don't forget that even
Coulee City dispatch. [volume] (Coulee City, Wash.) 19??-19??, 1940-11-28

the brilliant Red Grange knew
games where he failed to pick up
two first downs. I saw sone against
Nebraska. nj
Football has known too many
great backs to offer you any COM
plete list-it had known some even
before the days of Snake Anes at
Princeton, one of the best, around
1889.
Heston, Eckersall, Thorpe, Coy,
Mahan, Tryon, Gipp, Nevers,
Grange, Nagurski, Joesting, Stew
ems, Dutch Clarke, Whizzer White
and long list of others have led the
parade at one time or another. Don't
believe for a second that all had
nothing but big days. They have
all known dark days on one or more
occasions.
Grange Stopped
still recall the day when I trav-
eled with "Our Town" Frank Cra-
ven, the football loving actor, to Ur-
bana to see Red Grange run against
Nebraska which had tackle by the
name of Weir-a 22O-pound hurdler.
That day we failed to see the IA
nous Redhead cross the scrinmage
line.
Frank Reagan made over 300
yards against Princeton-but only
six yards at ball carrying against
Michigan.
Fritz Pollard at Brown was star
back, but Colgate stopped him cold
er than two dead mackerel.
No one can keep running forever.
There were few backs the equals
of Eddie Mahan, the Harvard Scythe
but Cornell arrested his march at
the line of scrimmage one afternoon.
There is big argument now I'M
der way from Berkeley to Cam
bridge, meaning the Pacific and the
Atlantic, as to where Harmon be-
longs in the galaxy of stars. Many
of them will tell you Evashevski
made him. Harmon will say so.
Self-Made Back
Evashevski is one of the best
blocking backs of this generation.
A grand football player. But he
didn't make Tommy Harmon.
Harmon made Harmon. When
Evashevski went out in the Penn
game and his substitute entered,
Harmon picked up even more
ground.
Great backs make themselves
not their blockers, who can certainly
help. But the main job is still up
to the outstanding ball carrier, given
any sort of a chance to get in mo-
ton.
The point is that Harmon has been
a star since his first game-a star
from his first game in 1898 to his
last charge against Pennsylvania.
When he ran wild against Califor-
mia, starting his last college season,
scoring % points, they all said the
Golden Bear was only a fuzzy kit
ten. But the Golden Bear came
back to beat st. Mary's, the team
that beat Fordham, and to hold
Washington to a 7-6 decision after
Washington had played Minnesota
practically to standstill. So Cali
fornia must have had a few good
football players on the field.

BUNDISTS EMPLOYED in
DEFENSE PLANTS


Dies committee agents have Sc
cretly warned government authori-
ties to be on guard against an out
break of sabotage in defense plants
on the West coast.
According to the Dies-men, big
gest U. S. danger spot is Los Ange-
les, where Nazi and Communist fifth
columnists have been unusually &C
tive of late. The Los Angeles area
contains one of the largest concen-
trations of defense work in the coun-
try.
One reason for the D-mens fear
was their discovery of a secret mail
ing list of $500 names in raid on
the Los Angeles headquarters of the
German-American Bund. Herman
Schwinn, West coast Bund fuehrer,
admitted, under questioning, that the
list consisted of Nazi sympathizers
who regularly attended Bund meet
ings.
A check-up of the names revealed
the startling fact that 300 of them
are employed in airplane plants,
shipyards, oil refneries, auto fac
tories and other key defense indus
tries.
