bent, distant palm tree may seem
close. Another trick comes when q
patch of the blue sky is reflected in
a way which makes it look like a
lake on the desert.
Perhaps even more startling is
the mirage sometimes seen by per-
sons travelling on northern parts OF
the ocean. In such region, the
warm layer of air is high above the
water, not at the surface. Light
rays are bent and reflected from a
real ship in such way that the
vessel seems to be in the clouds, up
side down!

UNCLE RAYS CORNER

The bending of light rays has
great deal to Go with the mirage
indeed there would be no mirage if
such bending did not take place.
Perhaps you have noticed that an
object under water is not just
where it seems to be if you look at
it from a slant. If you look straight
downward the object is where it
seems but, while you are wading,
poke stick into the water from a
slanting position and see whether
YOU touch an object at the bottom
That little point has been noticed
BY many persons who have tried to
spear fish in lake
Much the same thing takes place
when. light rays pass through layers
of air which are heated in a special
way. Over the desert there is a
heavy layer of hot air above the
burning sand When light passes
through this layer the rays are bent
in a way which can play tricks on
people.
All pictures come to our eyes
with the help of light rays. A mi
rage is made up of light rays from
real objects. but when the rays are

Two questions about mirages ap-
pear in the following letter from a
reader.
Many of your readers would like
TO know more about mirageS Are
they seen upon water as well as
upon land? Are they the picture
of some scene or place far away?
Your articles are very interest
ing and very informative: If you
will inform us as to the above l
think you will please many followers
of your column
The answer to the first question is
"yes' A mirage may be seen on the
ocean as well as on land.
A mirage is view which Is more
or less false. 1t is something which
seems to be in certain place but
is not there, though it may be
found at a greater distance.
The most common place for a
mirage is on the desert. Many a
wanderer has been looking for water
when the image of lake or pool
came before his gaze Walking
toward the image, he has failed to
find 1t at the spot where he felt
sure he had seen it.

What do you say about it?'
We say that its not an easy hand
to bid, but the game should be
reached if the two partners are good
bidders and trust each other.
Everything was pretty logical up to
and including Vests pass on the
second round. But North's pass was
different story
South had bid two hearts-free-
~ and vulnerable He wasn't try
ing to wriggle out of a bad spot,
since East had bid two diamonds,
snd South could have passed with a
bad hand. South couldn't have q
four card suit or even a weak five
card suit. since he had voluntarily
come in with his bid at the level of
two when vulnerable.
In short, North did not have to
worry about the strength of the
trump suit South had at least a
strong five-card suit, and North's
three small hearts were ample sup
port. Surely North's strong clubs,
singleton diamond and spade ace
were enough to suggest game at
hearts. Hence North should have
raised to three hearts. strongly in
viting South to go on to game. And
since South had about as much as
could be expected considering his
original pass, he would have bid
four hearts

IT'S A TAX YEAR

Whatever part of the citiZenry has
been alarmed over the tendency of govern
ment to spend money without worrying
over how to pay the bill ought to be pleased
with the way our representatives from
capitol hill to Monroe county's courthouse
are getting ready to scratch out the pay
dirt now.
4 The county will be far from "pay as
you co. basis when all the new taxes are on
the law books, but the dents in the bankroll
OF the average taxpayer probably Will be
enough to make him vince every time ne
sees a public officer in new hat.
That $4,000 which County Tax AS
SCISSOR Claude Gandolfo is asking from the
legislature, for instance, is going to result in
a prime crop of headaches for small army
of Monroe county residents who have been
getting away with murder on their assess
ments. Gandolfo plans to use the money
to hire several new employees, but the en-
ployes are going to be there for the purpose
of ferreting out the hundreds of taxpayers
who have been given ridiculously low as
sessments, or no assessments at all.
Collection of those assessments, OF
course, will result in tax savings to others,
but some of the other plans being thought
up in Washington and Tallahassee will
make cure that no one saves much. .
The legislature will put new bite on
horse racing, which doesn't hurt anyone in
Kew West, but it is considering tax on in
comes ard dallying with the idea of one on
salt water fishing that would sink teeth in
y most of the people here.
Meanwhile, in Washington, where the
really high grade spending goes ON, the
treasury has worked out plan which
would make many taxpayers put up six
times their this years contribution.
Income taxes almost certainly are
bound for a steep jump, while another
per cent may be added to the present "a
per cent tax on corporations. A check on
the figures reveals that family which has
paved S11 income tax on $4,000 income,
may be paying $72 next year, while single
person with $1,000 income would pay
1920 instead of $40.
In addition, the treasury plans taxes on
travel and drawing of checks, with IN
creases in liquor and cigarette taxes and
new evies on the smaller things, such as
chewing gum and soft drinks.
There can be no skimping at this point
in the defense of the United States, but as
the taxpayer painfully digs out the money
no will he hopinp that there isn't much
waste, either.

LIFE SPAN IS NOT LONGER

Many readers of The Citizen are I'M
der the impression that the life span of man
has increased within the recent century
The fact is, however, that this is not true
and the capacity of man to live longer
life is no better than that of his an
cestors.
The confusion arises out of the ap-
plication of sanitary science in the past Gen.
tury. which has brought more people
through the hitherto dangerous period of
infancy, permitting them to survive into
childhood. early adult life and maturity. For
this reason, the expectation of life" is
eighteen years more than it was century
ago but the individual capacity to live more
wears has not increased.
To explain this, one should remember
that the expectation of life is based on the
average death age of individuals. 1t IS
obvious that this average age will advance
if the lives of infants and young children
are saved, regardless of the fact that old
men and women continue to die at the APP
pointed three score years and ten.

DESCRIBES REAL VALUE AND
CONVENIENCE OF THIS
PRODUCT TO NUMEROUS
HOUSEWIVES
Key WHIST, Florida,
April "a, 194l.

The woman has ALWAYS had her
way-and today science and in
lust1y have linked forces to give
The modern housewife the time
and labor-saving devices she de-
mands. For the housewife OF
194I has to keep up with -sthe

1t all takes time, too. From
the minds and machines of science
and industry come the trick

gadgets that give Mrs. House
wife her leisure hours. Why, the
modern housewife doesn't even
have to use an air tight box to
keep her bread fresh or doesn't
even have TO cut her own cake
anymore.
1t all started yesterday, you
might say, when the housewife
found herself too rushed to slice

ing her own bread years ago..

and fluffy moistness that she got

/. gs OF time, trouble and money.
SO, the art of home baking has
shifted to the attic to join the
discarded art of home weaving.
Commercial bakers gradually
developed a baking skill that
produced cakes with that good
fashioned home-baked quail
ity and flavor, but commerce
never stops looking for improve
ments and the housewife never
stops hunting time and money
savers. and this time the house
wife didn't want to bother with
cutting her cake or discarding
the stale portions And the new
package now on the market elm
mates both problems.
The baker who designed this
package first bakes large size,
two-layer gold cake and fills and
ices it generously in the favored
home style. Then he departs from
regular paekaging routine by di-
viding the cake into eight equal
portions Each portion is placed
in a separate compartment and
the entire cake is covered with
a repiaceable celophane wrap
per The wrapper is held to the
base Of the tray BY d cardboard
collar that snaps off and on
again
Thus. if the housewife wants
to serve two or three portions,
she snaps off the collar, lifts the
cellophane wrapper and removes
the desired number of servings.
To preserve the rest of the cake
and keep it moist and fresh, she
merely replaces the cell0phane
wrapper and snaps the collar on
to hold il firm.
Once again, science and indus
Try combine TO create time and
labor saving devices that give the
housewife moro leisure. With
these latest bakery packages, she
