Kopel v japonskih
kmetskih hisah

Japonec Sc koplje vsak dan
proti veceru. Vodo segrevajo v.
kopalni kadi, XII je ma kmetih

ognjisce, v katerem kurijo.
Ko Sc je voda v kadi segrela
cd 45 do SO stopinj Celzija, sto-
pi v kad najprej oce. Ali Sc v
tel vodi ne umije. LIE zmoci sc.
Nato stopi il kadi, Sc namaze
z milom in splakne gorko vo-
do il posebne posode. se1e Sc
daj Sc okoplje v kadi.
Ma ia nacin ostane voda ci-
sta in Sc "a ocetom lahko kop-

mlajsi, XII jih gre lahko vec
hkrati v kopel. Najprej jih ma
tt omoci kadi, nato jih dvigne
il ME in jih milnico umije in
splakne z vodo. Nato morajo
spet kad. Tam postane njiho-
va koza rdeca ko rak. Nazad-
ME, ko stopijo il kadi, jih matt
POLIO z mrzlo vodo, kar daje
telesu odpornost in varuje pred
prehladom. Otroci so ma to ma
vajeni in sc cello vesele ma le-
demo mrzli curek. Nato sc obri-
sejo in gredo k vecerji. Ia We
cerjo je navadno riz in caj.
Ma Japonskem ne kurijo sta

MILO v telesh toploto.
Tudi najrevnejsi Japonec Sc

bazen, napolnjen z vroco vodo.
Tu cepe stotine Japoncev in
uzivajo gorko kopel, otroci pa

V dobi nasih starih znancev

Takrat je bill Babilon emo maj

XII strumno korakajo; trgovine
z disavami, mazami in okraski;

emo mnozico pa "a mnogo mad
stropij visoke hise. TAX je bill

cudno, ce je tudi znanost cvela
v tenn bogatem in gosto naselje-
mem mestu.
Babilonci so Grke mnogocesa
naucili, kakor so sc Rusi "a Pc
ira Velikega ucili cd Svedov in
Holandcev. Babilonci so naucili
Grke deliti cas- ma enake dobe,
cd Grkov pa je to deljenje pre-
slo k drugim narodom Europe.
Oni so baje tudi naucili Grke
delati move ure, prve ure S ka-
zalom. Reel pa moramo, da :ie
manjkalo Sc enc malenkosti-
kazalcev samih.
"Kazalcev!" porecete. ''Kaj so
tudi ure brez kazalcev?" Da sc
prepricate, da so tudi take ure,
vam nj treba hoditi v Azijo, kjer
so svoje dni kipele v nebo babi-
lonske hise. Sc v Leningradu in

Razgovor PetriGa S Petrom
PavliGem
Diva stara prijatelja, Pavel
Petric in Peter Pavlic sc nista
videla ze deset let.
Nenadoma pa sta Sc ma cesti
skoro zaletela drug v drugega.
Kaj je torej moral reci Pavel
Petric in kaj mu je odgovoril
Peter Pavlic?
Gotovo Sc ne motim, da je
Pavel Petric v casu, ko sta 81
stiskala roki, vzkliknil:
"Oh, koliko je re poteklo vode
cd tistih dob, dragi Peter!"
A Peter Pavlic mu je odgo-
voril: "Res, precej, prav gotovo,
Pavel."
Pa vesta Ii oba-Pavel Petric
in Peter Pavlic-kaj ia izraz po-
meni?
o kaki vodi neki govorita?
Kan je stekla? Odkod je pri-
tekla?
Mislim, da nasa prijatelja ne
hi mogla tega pojasniti.
Fraza O vodi je re davno izgu-
bila smisel, a ljudje jo ponavlja-
jo kakor papige, ne da bi pomis-
lili, kaj pomeni.
Kaj maj pomeni prav "a prav?
ze davno so bill ljudje nasli,
da je mogoce merritt cas- vodo.

pipo nekoliko odvres, voda izte-

uro casa.
Ako potem, ne da bi Sc dotak-
Mill pipe, zopet nalijemo toliko
vode kakor pref, iztece tocno v
istem casu, ne pref, ne pozneje.
To pomeni, da nam samovar

treba vsakikrat ma novo napol-
niti z vodo.
V Babilonu je bila TAXA ura v
rabi ze pred $500 lett. Seveda,

Mill posodo.
To so storili sestkrat ma dan.

lean people, especially our veter-
ans, being given an opportunity
to express their views.
Sheldon said that the Nurem-
berg trials disclosed a concerted
plan among German military lead
ers to weaken the population of
surrounding nations, through de-
vices describable only as "a pro-
cess of genocide." He said that
by comparison with Germany, the
relative security of pro-democratic
neighboring countries has been cut
to a dangerous level.
'The present plan to break faith
with the commitments and ideals
of President Roosevelt can only
lead us to the most disastrous
cOnsequences-and I think it is
only an earnest of these cOnse-
quences when we discover that the
steel industry in the Ruhr is be-
ing permitted to revive under the
leadership of such men as Alfred
Hugenberg, who at one time was
actually member of Hitler's
cabinet" Sheldon declared.
IT firmly believe that if the
American people were given an
opportunity to learn details of this
kind, they would express an I'M
qualified resentment against any
policy which permits the preserva-
ton of any iota of the former
leadership of the Nazi steel and
chemical cartels, or indeed permits
the continued existence of those
two long recognized dangers to the
peace and freedom of the world =.
I feel certain that the American
people are not prepared to forgive
an evil, un-Christian and anti
democratic war machine which
has cost so many millions of lives,
and to which it seems the policy
we are about to embark upon may
give renewed opportunity for at
lacking the lives and security of
our children, Sheldon's memoran-
dunn continued.

Mickey Weintraub, the star
ocond baseman of the Stamford
por,bers in the Colonial League,
os been sold to San Diego in the
bacific Coast League. The next
Zen will be the big leagues. Vein
raub is one of the most unusual
Aovs ever to take up the national
Dastime. His background reads
ike a Horatio Alger or at least
ike Frank Merriwell.
II was only a few weeks ago
hat owner Stan Moor of the
Stamford Bombers, in desperate
need of another starting hurler,
began working on a deal that
would send the second baseman
Mickey Winters, nee Weintraub,
batting at a 1886 clip, to the Port
chester nine in return for Pitcher
Joe Duffy, second baseman Joe
Mategrano, and cash. That night
the versatile young collegian made
the projected trade look ridiculous
by having another one of his great
nights getting five for five, for
a perfect night and lifting his
batting average over the $50
mark. The next day the SIAM
ford management, feeling that
Mickey was too valuable a pros7
|pect to give up, and under pres
sure from manager Zeke Bonura
and local sports writer's who
thought the deal did not make
sense, broke off negotiations with
the Portchester Clippers.
Adjudged the best second base
man in the league by sports writ
ers covering the circuit, Mickey
has had more fantastic things hap
pen to him than have occurred to
Terry of Terry and the Pirates.
Before the war, he received his
Masters Degree in Journalism
from Columbia University and ed
tied a Brooklyn weekly newspaper.
