The Prophet Mohammed lived
more than 800 years ago. He
started 4 religion which IL now pow
erful and widespread.
Members of the faith 90 by many
names. Here are few Of them
Mohammedans, Mosleras, Islamites,
Mussulmans and Mussulmen. Dur
ing the Middle Ages people often
spoke Of them as SarAcens, Arabs,
Turks and Moors. The best name,
for modern usage, seems to be either
sMohammedAn" or "MoSlem."
There are more than zoe, 900 900
MohAmmedans in the world, and
they live mainly in Africa and Asia.
More than half the people in
Northern Africa are Mohammedans
Some Negroes have adopted the re-
hgion, but most. African Moham-
medans are members of the Arab
branch OF the white race,
An old saying tells us that 4
prophet does not have honor in his
own country While he was alive,
Mohammed fell into some trouble
IN his native city, but now he is
greatly honored in every part of
Arabia. Almost all the people there
are followers OF his faith.
We also find this religion strong
In Irak, Iran and India. The exact
number Of Mohammedans in India
is not known, but it probably Is be-
tween 10000, 900 and 1000 900. They
have supplied many soldiers for
the United Nations. Some of them
Have fought in Egypt and Libya. as

It was so now. Everybody on the

along the Laughing Brook knew
that Farmer Browns boy was once
more setting traps. It was Z long
time since ne had put those traps
away, and the little people had
really begun to like him. At least
some of them had. They believed
that he really was their friend, and
were beginning to trust him. And
now here he was setting traps! It
was q splendid chance for those who
had doubted him al along to say,
I'VE told you sol" They did, too.
AS usual, it was Sammy Jay who
had first spread the news. It just
happened that Sammy had been
sitting In the big maple tree in
Farmer Browns dooryard when
Farmer Browns boy came out OF
the house with a lot Of steel traps
clanking in one hand and an sx In
the other. Sammy knew what that
meant. He had seen traps set be-

The ray florets are merely colorful
banners for advertising the presence
Of the aster to insect f1iers In need
of refreshment. The actual flower,
as in all composites, is in the center
where perfect individual blossoms
are massed..
Many of our common flowers have
perfected marvellous ways Of reach
ing their goal, the continuance Of
the family. There have been adap-
tations made to prevent self-fertili-
zation, which would spell doom.
and there have been intricate and
clever gadgets fashioned for the
outer covering Of the seeds to enable
them to travel more safely to new
locations or to be protected from
destruction.
The stem of the New England
aster Is stout and bristle- haired.
This discourages pihering insects
that otherwise would creep up 4
smooth stem, imbibe all the nectar
desired, help themselves to pollen,
then depart without paying their
hostess for their refreshment.
Transportation Of pollen from one
hostess to another Is legal tender
between insects and flowers. Graz
ing cattle would be tempted to snip
on the heads of asters without 50
much as 4 thank you, please" II
they were not subconsciously aware
of the fearful tickling and scratch
ing they would be subjected to II
they tried to eat the bfistly pro-
tected plant. Therefore, the asters
may mature their seeds In peace.
Along the hairy stein there are
lance-shaped leaves lobed at the
base where they clasp the stem.
After the golden center Of the astes
has become 11lled with seeds, they
are ready by autumn to sail the air
ways. Nan enjoys the colorful
asters, but his pleasure y limited
unless he knows the story behind

to set traps long ago, when he tried

Sammy tossed his head indignant

flew to carry the news farther.
Unc' Billy grinned. Nevertheless, he
took pains to warn old Mrs. 'Possum

For Smoking in
| N. Y. BIockout

William w. Huntsberger Of Wash
ington, who described himself as a
Government submarine inspector,
was held in a New York jail over
night in $50 bail for trial when he
pleaded innocent to a charge OF
smoking during city-wide blackout
test, the Associated Press reported
The question of whether smoking
is permissible during blackouts there
was still unanswered, however, after
conflicting incidents during the test
last night. Mayor La Guardia, at
the Polo Grounds for the all-star
baseball game, said when questioned
about smoking:
"Oh, you can't see that from the
air. I know from experience"
Police Commissioner Lewis j.
Valentine puffed away on cigarettes
at blackout headquarters at the La
Guardia Airport. Many OF the
thousands of baseball fans at the
Polo Grounds, forced to sit through
the drill after the game, struck
matches and lighted cigarettes with
out being reprimanded.

Previous Labor Board
Reinstoted TWA Pilot
3, the Associated Press.

3. the Associated Press.
1t was not the present National
Labor Relations Board, but a
predecessor Government agency.
which ordered reinstatement of
Wayne Williams, once-discharged
commercial pilot, who died with 81
others in the crash of a Trans
continental & Western passenger
plane near Las Vegas, New, jan
uary 16.
An official of NLRB pointed this
out today in connection with last
weeks report by House committee
which placed blame for the accident
primarily on the negligence OF the
pilot.
The report noted that Capt. Will
liams had been discharged by TWA
in 1888 for alleged carelessness, but
that the National Labor Board or
dered him reinstated. That board
has since gone out OF existence.
