Blow Fails to Kill
Good Samaritan
Policy of Youth

A young Washington ministe-
rial student still believes in the
Good Samaritan policy, despite
what happened to him.
Raymond S. Stringer, 81, who
lives at 633 I street NV. when
in Washington, recovered from an
attack of amnesia in Charleston,
w. Va.
The amnesia. he said apparently
was induced by a blow on the
head from a person he had be-
friended. A ministerial student
in the Nazarene faith, he said
that. several weeks ago, he met
an apparently crippled man at
Clifton Forge, Va, who asked him
for help.
Mr.. Stringer said he offered to
take the man to a restaurant but
that on the way the cripple" hit
him with a crutch.
This one bad experience with
the Good Samaritan philosophy
has not changed my faith in the
least" he told police.
When here, Mr.. Stringer lives
with his brother, Erford, and
the latter's wife at the I street
address.

CRUELINC TEST: So you think airplane

would persuade you to change places with the

some nameless heroine. usually the designer,
has to test the thing by wearing it around for
six weeks!

TEA-TISTICS. If you've been drinking
lot of iced tea this summer, perhaps you'd
like to know the reason why.
In 1904 an Englishman named Blechyn-
den, trying to promote new blend of tea,
set up booth at the ST. Louis Worlds Fair
Just then heat wave struck, and prospective
clients ignored his hot drink as if it we're some
deadly poison.
Desperate, he bought some ice, dumped the
tea over it, and invented new drink which
sold by the barrels
Incidentally, the same fair introduced the
ice-cream cone.

Rail bird shooting was nothing to

weather conditions which brought
poor tides prevented the shooting
