Apples for Genius

Different men have strange
ways of creating and inventing.
Sir Frederick Banting, discoverer
of insulin, awoke from a deep
sleep at two in the morning to
find inspiration streaming through
his brain, so he jotted down brief
notes and went back to sleep. But
it was during this period that his
main problems were solved. Schil-
Ter always had rotten apples in
his desk, for their aroma brought
inspiration. De Quincy drank
strong tea and took opium for the
same reason. Few mental work.
ers depend on hard work for in
spiration. Descartes, the great
mathematician, believed in idle
ness and always lay in bed till
eleven. 1t was then that his best
ideas came tumbling into his head.
Thornton Wilder, the American
writer, gets most of his plots while
out hiking, and Henry Ford admits
that only while resting does his
brain seek out new channels of
thought.

"Since you've let the cat out of the

a note for you, senior, and l was told
to deliver it as quickly as possible. :"
He drew the note from a breast
pocket of his leathern jacket. It
was from Carmen.
MY mother has asked you to
come out for visit at Guadalupe
before you leave for Suffers Fort.
We should all be equally happy to
welcome you to your old home, as
you well know. But even if you
haven't time for a good visit, Moth
er wants to ask very special favor.

Carmen"
Bowie did not stop to read the
formal Spanish greetings that closed
the note. He saw on the white sheet
of paper only the magic word, Gear
men,"
He slapped Pedro on the Shout
der and babe him go down and
feed the horses and get his break
fast. 1t was already merienda
day-Saturday.
Bowie made up his mind to ride
straight to Don Francisco's. It was
the only chance to catch the party.
He scrubbed a hasty note for Cap
tain Suffer, saying that he had been
unavoidably detained and would fol-
low on the next boat. Thirty min
utes later he and Pedro were rid
ing rapidly for Don Francisco Guer-
rero's.
At Don Francisco's disappoint-
ment met him. The merienda party
had already left. However, it was
easy to follow. He sent Pedro to
Guadalupe and took the trail to the
valley of the Strawberries himself.
A pretty scene greeted Bowie's
eyes when he reached the brow of
the hill. Below him a valley opened
like a huge inverted bowl trimmed
by surrounding hills. Each rancho
had set up its own pavilion, bright
with Spanish colors, and the pavil-
ions were spread in a crescent,
opening out on the valley. The va
rious ranches had their compile
ments or servants; and the horses,
tethered among the trees, were as
happy as horses could be, close to
running brook, but pestered by
flies.
Bowie rode rapidly down the long
hill and around to the camp near the
pines.
Dona Maria saw him first. She
called to Carmen where she stood
at a little distance, talking to Don
Vicente, cousin of Don Francis
co.'s from Santa Barbara.
Carmen greeted Bowie with cor
dial enthusiasm, and he explained
in turn the mishap that had pre-
vented him from joining the party at
Guadalupe the night before. Don
Vicente, Garments escort, scrupu-
lousy well hammered and somewhat
senior in years to the rest of the
group, eyed the newcomer with po-
lite interest.
While dinner was on, Don Ramon
rode in with Aunt Ysabel from Mon

Add the bolero to it, and make

Wheeler Warns
Against Hysteria
From Arms Program

WASHINGTON.-(FP) - Tolerance
and reason were posed as antidotes
to "unfounded hysteria directed
against aliens or minority groups" by
Sen. Burton X. Wheeler d., Mont)
in speech in the senate May 81.
Speaking against the proposed
transfer of the bureau of immigration
from the department of labor to the
department of justice, Wheeler re-
viewed the history of the department
of justice and J. Edgar Hoover, head
|of the FBI, during the days of the
notorious Palmer raids.
Steps taken toward national defense,
Wheeler told the senate, will be multi
fled unless they contain safeguards to
preserve our traditional freedom of
speech and opinion, "our even handed
Justice and fair labor standards"
"In this country" he declared, 1--WE
are beginning to be faced with atti-
tudes and states of mind which, If
unchecked by reason and the lessons
of past experience, may threaten seri-
GUS harm to our security and indie
pendence."
Arms measures and the like,
Wheeler added, cannot succeed If their
"only effect is to arouse hysteria and
set In motion forces and programs
which may become as great menace
to democracy as the menaces they
seek to combat"
