Synthetic Rubber



Even should Japan muster enough strength to
hold Oh to parts of her newly won empire-a propo-
ston which does not seem remotely possible
she will find herself deprived of one of the greatest
assets for which she has been fighting The value Of
rubber plantations in the Far East has tempted
Tokyo for years Now much of the value has been
disintegrated by poisoning synthetic rubber
industry.
Synthetic rubber possibilities have been recog-
nized for years In Russia development of processes
for manufacturing rubber substitutes have been
cessfully pursued for time In the United States
and England these steps never were taken to any
great degree for a very obvious reason-we had
plenty of raw rubber available
The war coming as it did, caught the United
states short on raw rubber. But American genius,
with laboratory results already available set to work
at once to find substitutes for the tremendously i'm
portant commodity which Japan, in quick successive
strokes took from u.s.
Our progress has been much swifter than Nip
pom ever believed possible Plants were completed in
record time and production now is reaching large
scale There indications that by the end of 1914
we can turn out enough synthetic to meet the ma

WHITE HOUSE GRASS

Many h0uSehold argument mas
developed over whether it's neces-
sary to remove the grass cuttings
after moving the laWn-either by
catching the cuttings in a carrier
or by raking the lawn afterward.
Here is the answer of William
Reeves, White House gardener:
The best system is TO keep the
grass short by cutting it at least
once a week. Then you won't have
to rake up the clippings. But if
the grass gets too tall. the cuttings
will lie there and burn out" the
lawn.
Gardener Reeves explains that
as grass grows tall it becomes ten
der, and, after a cutting, the hot
sun burns it up.
You can save lot of raking or
hard pushing if you will set the
lawnmower blades high = about
IL or 2 inches from the bed knife
to the surface of the ground-and
cut the lawn at least once a
week. Then the grass cuttings can
be allowed to lie without interior
ing with the growth of the lawn
In fact, they will form a mulch
or fertilizer. But if the cuttings
are long enough to lie on top anc
turn brown, then they should be
raked off.
AS for the White House lawn
Gardener Reeves admits that the
wet weather has brought up cror

HOROSCOPE
"The stars incline
bat do not compel
FRIDAY, JUNE rs

Benefic aspects rule today which
should be fortunate for the people
of the United States. Uranus is in
place promising unity of purpose
and true patriotism.
HEART AND HOME: Letters
bringing joyful tidings from dis
tant members of the family are
forecast under this CONFORMATION.
1t is a date promising to women
who seek new avenues of useful
ness. Care of workers families and
nursery schools for small children
should focus scientific attention.
Aged persoas are not fitted to rear
the young. The stars seem to warn
that many of the grandmothers OF
this war period will suffer mortal
illnesses and will require special
attention Old persons of both sexes
will be peculiarly sensitive to plane
tary influences and many long lives
will close suddenly this summer, 1t
is foretold.
BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Despite
Government gestures of aid to
small business, many shops and
minor factories. will close by mid
summer, it is prognosticated. While
rivers of money will flow from
pockets to merchants money draw
ers and the sense of general pros
perity will be stimulating, the ten
dency to patronize big business
will be widespread. With high
wages, demand for the latest and
best in merchandise will have
caused retailers with little capital
to give up futile competition.
NATIONAL ISSUES: There is
sign read as indicating that, in
the frenzy of obtaining sufficient
man and woman power to operate
war industries and Government Of
fees, overstaffing may be serious
in Washington as we'll as in many
factories Before the end of the
summer the stars indicate drastic
changes will greatly facilitate work
and improve production. The adage.
that haste makes waste, when DEM
onstrated on a scale including mil-.
lions of men and women, gives;
cause for grave results, astrologers'
emphasize
INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS:
IN addition to the Axis the United
Nations are facing another enemy.
which occultists declare is most
threatening this summer. TIL a t.
enemy is hunger in Europe and
Asia which our nation is combat
ing with all its resources. Since
hunger brings many types of disease
the generosity of the United States
is not altogether unselfish. Again
aStrologerS urge attention to the
sanitation of all American centers
of population, because importation
of infections of many sorts may
not be prevented, even with scien-
tific precaution.
Persons whose birthdate it is
have the augury of year of much
good fortune, including changes
that bring many extraordinary ex-
periences.

clamor for more production, huge
stockpiles of war materials lie in
warehouses, factories and depots
throughout the nation Mocking our
shortages, idle inventories of raw
materials are found in many
plants
The committee will urge tighter
control of inventories and alloca-

materials. Also, to offset "dwindling
civilian supplies" it will be recon-
mended that these be subjected to

Taranto.

The important Italian port and
naval base of Taranto (ancient
name, Tarentum) first became
prominent in the news early in the
war when many units of Italy's
fleet were destroyed in the harbor
in surprise attack by Raj tor
pedo planes.
Taranto is pronounced: tah-
RAHN-toe.
One of the most interesting factS
about the name Taranto is that it
is the source of the word TARAN-
TULA, for the large and venomous
spiders abound in and near the
city.
1t was once believed that the
bite Of a tarantula would result
in a disease called tarantism tac-
cent the first SyllableD, the unfor-
tunate victim of which was seized
with an uncomfortable passion for
dancing. And it was believed that
tarantism could be cured only by
inducing the victim to indulge his
mania to the utmost. WhereupOn,
friends and relatives would assem-
bic, with whatever musical inStru-
mentS were close at hand, and
provide the music for the frenzied
jitterbugging. The poor wretch was

lllypad. When he cautiously poked
his head out OF water again 1t was
just in time to see Longlegs arrive.
He knew what Longlegs had come
for. He had no fear for himself be-
cause the water was so deep where
his big green lilypad grew that
Longlegs couldn't wade near enough
to reach him, but he was worried on
account of his children and grand
children and t-grandchildren
who are sometimes called pollywogs
and sometimes tadpoles. He knew
that they dearly love to play among
the bulrushes.
III have to keep them away from
there" he grumbled and once more
disappeared. He passed the word
along to all the pollywogs that If
they wanted to grow up to be re-
spectacle and respected Frogs they
must keep away from the bulrushes
that morning and find some other
place to play Then he climbed UP
on his big, green lilypad TO watch
for foolish green flies and keep an
eye on Longlegs and Heron.
1t was some time before Long
legs suspected that anything was
wrong. He just concluded that ne
had been seen when he arrived. He
counted on this being forgotten if
he kept perfectly still. He knows how
easy it is to forget.
IF keep perfectly still those who
saw me come will forget all about it
or else think that ! have gone
away thought he. So he stood
among the bulrushes without NOV
ing for the longest time. Had you
seen him there you might have
thought him asleep unless you had
happened to see his eyes There
was nothing sleepy about these.
They were very bright and keen as
they watched for some sign of care
less minnoWs or needless pollywogs.
So Longlegs stood among the bull
ruShes and waited and waited, a
perfect image OF patience. all the
time growing hungrier and hun
grier. Not a single s:Nery gleam

Bedtime Stories
BY THORNTON w. BURGESS
Who watchful waits and patience keep
Is SURE 10 dine hefnre he SleenS


Is sure to dine before he sleeps.
Longlegs the Blue Heron said this
over to himself again and again, just
to keep his courage up. He needed
to, for he was hungry and all the
time growing hungrier. He was
standing among the bulruSheS on
the edge of the Smiling Pool He
had been standing there for ever
and ever so long. You know Long
legs is a fisherman. famous fish
erman, and long ago l learned that
the greatest virtue fisherman can
possess is patience. SO ever since
he was a little fellow Longlegs has
trained himself to be patient.
This particular morning he had
arrived at the Smiling Pool a wee
bit later than usual. Just before he
arrived Plunger the Fish Hawk had
chanced that way and had seen a
tempting fish in the Smiling Pool
He had shot down out of the sky
into the Smiling Pool with a great
splash which had given all the fish
big and little, great fright. Then
he had flown away and taken with
him that tempting fish which had
led him to make the plunge Hardly
had the ripples he had made when
he plunged into the water disap-
peared when Jonglegs arrived.
There was nothing to show that
anything had happened there in the
Smiling Pool and Longlegs didn't
have the least doubt that he would
soon catch a good breakfast. If he
had known about Plunger the Fish
Hawk. he would have tried his luck
somewhere else. But he didn't know
and no one told him.
1T Is no business of mine" said
Jerry Muskrat to himself as he
watched Longlegs drop his long
legs. close his wings, and take his
stand among the bulrushes, but if
know anything about it he is going
to wait long time for his breakfast
unless some foolish pollywogs hap
pen this way. and I suspect that
Grandfather Frog will see that they
don't"

frightened him quite as much as he
had frightened the fish, and he had

strange, very strange He was
tempted to give up and try his luck
somewhere else, but he remembered
that patience is almost sure to be
rewarded sooner or later. and so he
waited and kept on waiting like the
good fisherman that he is. And at
last his patience was rewarded He
saw a school of little minnoWs play
ing about and coming near and
nearer to the bulrusheS. Longleg's
eyes sparkled and once more he re-
peated that little verse:
Who watchfu waits and patience keeps
Is sure to dine before he sleeps.
