tubes were used to condense It into
snow-white crystals which later
were pressed into small cakes.
The small waxy lozengers held
their scent remarkably well. The
Chinese decided to use them as
amulets for warding off disease. BY
the time the trading Turks arrived,
the Chinese had built up q stock
pile of camphor trinkets and ANU
lets together with great story of
the marvellous curative properties of
camphor. The canny Arabs were
quick to recognize the commercial
value Of the aromatic trinkets and
bought the lot.
The Chinese war lords Of Formosa
were eager to establish q camphor
monopoly. A government permit
was necessary to touch one Of the
trees. A man owning a tree was
considered wealthy. He could bor-
row money on it or sell an interest
in the product. AS many as 1000
would claim share in a single tree.
Heavy penalties were imposed on
those daring to cut a tree.
Until the latter part Of the 10th
century the supply was equal to the
demand. At this time John Hyatt
an American scientist, mixed
camphor with nitrated cotton cell
lulose and got celluloid, the first
plastic. Another new industry was
horn to demand camphor. Plastic
products were greatly increased. =

AmeriCan CamnhOr


American ingenuity kept camphor
from being a critical wartime ma
terial. A scientist discovered how to
make one wood product do the work
of another. Our strictly American
camphor Is synthetic product
made from turpentine.
When the small waxy white cakes
rest side by side, they are identical
in weight, scent, color and chemical
properties. The stand-in is a dead
ringer for the true gum camphor
from Formosa.
The true story Of camphor Is
fascinating. In 1921. rowing Chinese
discovered majestic stand of
camphor laurel trees Cinnamonum
camphora) on the island of Formosa.
The strong penetrating scent bathed
the entire island even drifting far
out to sea. The Chinese, alert to
the medicinal value of the gum, set
men to chopping the wood into thin
slices for distillation. Crude bamboo

Mr.. Champion hit the ceiling, all
right, but it was for a different
reason. The reason was that he
guessed the hand as badly as he
could and went down 1,400 points.
And how could Mr.. Dale double
the final bid He had little enough
for his vulnerable overcall. But his
partner, q second bidder, had en-
tered the auction. There was also
the fact that MIR. New was not q
sound bidder.
Mr.. Dale could we'll stand lead
IN either his own suit or his part
ner's. Mr.. New apparently had q
diamond suit Of some description
and with four diamonds to the
jack, 1t appeared fairly certain that
this suit could not be run without
interruption.
Adding all these things together,
Mr.. Dale took the risk of double.
It seemed almost a sure thing that
the opponents did not have the
strength to redouble-even II they
had the cards to make their con-
tract.
Mrs. Keen opened the queen Of
hearts and Mr.. Dale played his king.
Since he had only one stopper In
spades, too. Mr.. Champion took this
trick with his ace.
He led a club and finessed the
queen, which held. Then he led a
small diamond from the board,
played his queen and was disguised
when 1t was Mrs. Keen who had the
king.
Mrs. Keen then ran the rest OF
her hearts, putting everybody down
to i've cards. Dummy was down toI
ace, 10, 7 Of diamonds, o spade and
the ace Of clubs.
Mr.. Dale saved three spades and
0ne jack, Of diamonds. Mr.. Cham
pion's last cards were jack, 8, of
clubs, the ace Of spades and the
Q Of diamonds.
After finishing Oh the hearts Mrs.
Keen led spade and Mr.. Champion
won with the ace. He then led the
8 Of diamonds and let it ride. Mr..
Dale won with the jack and took
two more tricks In spades for down
i've.

is leading the National League

binson says:
George Sisler showed me how

apt to swing at a bad pitch now
since I'm not as tense as I used
to be.
IF anybody can teach a play
er how to hit, Sisler is the man."

Robinson's tribute to the one

man. Sisler won the American
League batting championship in
1920 and 1922 with averages Of
.4O7 and APO respectively.
ROBINSON DOESN'T expect

hopes that this will be his finest

give been very lucky so far

"There seems to be an equali-
zing period, however, when you're

but when the fielders just happen

Robinson believes he is in

way. He til a n ks Manager

ingful But few cranks decided it was
breach of patriotic protocol. The flag must
come down at sunset, they insisted. So
twice the flag was torn down from its staff
during the night and in the morning was
found lying on the ground.
Imagine them thinking they were more
patriotic than she was and they threw
the flag on the ground!" fumes Gridley
Adams, director of the United States Flag
Foundation. Adams, probably the nations
top authority on flag rules and customs,
interceded on the woman's behalf, pointing
out that there is nothing wrong with flying
the flag at night under such special circum-
stances. ''Why. the very theme of The
Star-Spangled Banner is about the
flag flying all through the night from
twilight to dawn he says.
President Wilson in his day opposed any
official flag code at all Though Congress
finally adopted one in 1912. Wilson said he
preferred that the people simply love the
flag. not be compelled to love it. And in our
day, Wilson's old friend, Bernard Baruch
puts it this way: Patriotism is like religion

PATRIOTISM by Howard Whitman

Lip service does not make man religious or
give him good relationship with his God.
Nor do symbols and rituals make man
patriotic. They cannot take the place of
real meaning"
Our goal must be to wed the symbol to
the meaning 1t can be done. In the New
York City schools the curriculum has been
enriched with American Heritage" studies
from kindergarten through twelfth grade.
The purpose: ITO develop pride and faith
in American democracy"
