bows and held out our arms to
show we would not harm them.

houses for them and showed
them how to hunt food and catch

knives. and pots OF iron and many

Inside, purple-hlack with age
were silver flaEons and plates

~ military writer named
Flavius Renatus Vegetius penned
what would be called in modern
times a best seller"
There was -only-one trouble
with Flavius' work, however
he wrote it just about 1000
years before we got around TO
inventing the printing press But
that probably makes it all the
more remarkable, for, despite
these odds his book enjoyed
wide circulation, having been la.
boriously copied by hand many
times over, and translated into
a dozen languages.
Along about 400 when man
began figuring out how to put
together a press that would actu-
ally work, Flavius' best seller
was still SO popular that his
works were among the first to
be printed. William CaXton, q

A Garden of
Telephone Poles

PROBABLY the oldest gar
Hden" in the United States is
y run by the Bell Telephone
Company Fenced in this patch
of ground are hundreds of tele-
phone poles planted row upon
row.
Put in the ground not for
growth but to measure decay.
these poles are being tested to
find substitutes for wood preserv-
atIves
The chemicals that are ordi-
narily forced into wood To make
it last are needed for more vital
war jobs, SO company engineers
are trying to find substitutes. BY
planting rows of poles, each one
treated in a different manner, the
experts can watch the rate of
decay and the effect Of weather
on the specimens
The poles, made Of mature
southern pine, are impregnated
under pressure with preserva-
tives The wood is put into
sealed steel container where the
chemicals are injected under
pressure The poles are then set
out 10 weather.
