HATTIE, THE FLoPPER

Hattie Green, colored, of New York,
was one of the most accomplished "flop-
pers" that ever faxed an accident and col.
lected damages on fraudulent claim, ac
cording to a. casualty bulletin.
Hattie, it appeared, simply couldn't
maintain an upright position Regularly,
Hattie fell on banana peels, usually n de-
partment stores. If there wasn't any peels
around, she brought one along or tripped
Hattie fell, on banana peels, usually in de-
managed to collect damages for her falls.
She had friendly doctor who, certified to
her injuries injuries whose nature must
often have amazed Hattie herself
Her real downfall came as a result of
her over-strong imagination. An accom-
plice who kept Hattie posted on things
about town, hurriedito her one day and told
her that there had been ain explosion in the
service garage of bus company. Hattie
Immediately fell into an awful state of col
lapse. She had an ambulance called, and
at the hospital said she had been passing
the garage when'the explosion occurred. A
short time later she filed. a claim for dam
ages against the bus company.
What Hattie didn't know was that she
had been watched and that the suspicious
records of other exploits had caught up
with her Hattie never collected any dam
ages from that explosion. She went to. the
1enitentiaiy instead!

MORE SoLlDS,IN MILK,

A new method of making evaporated
milk stronger has been developed by
scientists of the Department of Agriculture,
with a view to economy in shipping space
and in tin used for containers.
Evaporated milk made by the usual
procedure contains only about rs per cent
of milk solids, this being the maximum con-
centrationi that will stand the high tenn
peratures of concentration without curd-
ling. By the new processs which is COM
paratively simple, the amount of milk
solids can be increased to 81 per cent.
This is accomplished by first heating
the milk to temperature considerably
higher than the 203 degrees Fahrenheit
used for concentration, and then lowering
it to that point.
BY the new procedure an increase OF
nearly rs per cent in the nutritive value of.
ia given quantity of evaporatedI milk would
be obtained Thus, given amount of milk
solids could be handled either in smaller
cans or in, less number of cans than at
present. with corresponding saving ofStin
and shipping space.
Many plans of this nature are being
devised withaa view to saving tin and other
metals of which there is a shortage for use
in defense industries

AND THE PURSUIT. or HEARTH

Have you ever seen dirty little boy

Have you ever seen one under the age
of six whom you would be pretty willing to
bet doesn't get enough to eat--or if he
does, doesn't get the kind of food that you
would expect to give him the teeth and
bones and muscles Of healthy adult?
Hey West has quite few Of them
Key West also has a inursery provided
liby WTA, equipped to give at least 80 chill
dren alta time the food and training in
cleanliness which will give them some
chance of growing into healthy normal
people. &
Largely through ignorance Of its pres
ence and its purpose, the nursery at the
moment has about 16 children, and is in
danger Of closing because III is falling be-
low its quota.
And, since it, is difficult to- get to- the
parents whose children would be eligible,
directors of the nursery program are put

Children can. be provided for if they
are eligible and will 90 to the nursery. The
clubs, the societies and the citizens will

convinced that its good idea.
Children at the age handled by the
nursery to six---are in an impression.

then andthere' d fair chance they will con-

they will have teeth to brush by the time
they get out of grammar school.
If the present citizens of Key West
owe anything to the future citizens of Key
West, helping some of them to get to the

A LESSON IN VERSE
BY FRANK c. SCHNEIDER
PART II

Suffer little children to come I'M
to me,
And ] will give them rest.
The duty of spreading the Gospel
You should all take up with zest.
Believe in the Architect of the
Universe;
| The Maker of earth and sky.
In travelling along life's pathway,
Stop, ask yourself why.
You have not observed the Com
mandments
Given to Moses on the Mount.
How can you reach perfection
When you do things that do not
count?
Have you the faith of Daniel
Or the patience of the Prophet
job?
Do you try, these virtues to ac-
quire?
Do you try to tighten your load?
Learn to control your passions,
Forgive others as God forgives
you,
Keep your sins at a minimum
For at maximum your chances are.
few.
Remember to reach the higher
planes,
You must give rather than re-
ceive;
Accumulation of riches
Does not the mind relieve.
Pastors preach so many sermons,
Sometimes they seem in vain;
Start now to study your Bible
Why play losing game?
Others can not do your thinking
For you must attune your mind
So the power from the Spirit
World
Can reach you, then you'll find
What a peaceful feeling comes
Ger you
When your cares and troubles
drop,
But when you reach the threshold
There you must not Stop
But continue in your study
To broadcast to that shore
Where the Father is always listen
ing,
Waiting to help you more.
There are so many churches
Started by different men,
Perhaps just a difference of opin-
ion
But the commandments still are
ten.
Never think laws of God and ma
ture
Can be superseded by man,
For these fundamentals never
change
But forever will they stand.
In closing, I would but admonish
you
To search for the errors of your
ways
That your, soul may be lifted up
ward
Andlh no fear when you reach
/ the grave.
These statements are all very
truthful;
To live right there is only one
way.
This truth will remain in exist
ence
Right up until judgement day.
Until the last congregation has as
sembled,
The last pastor has preached his
theme,
The last choir has sung its anthem,
The last sun has cast its beam.
