land, saw the codfish trade between
America and Europe develop from
that settlement. Along with their
peaceful seafaring, the islanders
took on a profitable sideline at pri
vateering. Ships of England’s ene

of America” were fair game.

exiled Victor Hugo wrote three of hia
greatest tales—”Les Miserables,”

’’Paints made with soybean oil as,
the only constituent have given very'
satisfactory durability re^ts, even

schedule of 24 hours between coats
and 48 hours air drying before ex
posure,” says a statement emanat
ing from the bureau of agrkniltural
chemistry and engineering of the de
partment of agricitlture. ’’The
paints in which the only oil was soy
bean oil or a blend of soybean and
perilla oils—when correctly formu
lated with proper pigments and
driers—are equal in durability to
similarly formulated linseed oil
paints,” says the statement. “The
short drying period made the test
severe for the soybean oil paint.”

tooth paste to be made in America
appeal in Jan about 1849. A year
latw it came out in collapeible
tubes.' Nobody paid much attention
to it then, though. But, some 50
yarn later, it began to be edver-
tiaed in a big way.
People lik^ tooth peate — and
thay liked the way it waa peekad.
No Unger could be dipped into the
air-tight tube. It was handy and
acoQomieal, and it was unbreakable.
So other paatea, creams, Jelliec,
aoepa end aahree began to be put up
in tubes, to be squeezed out a Uttla
at a time. Some liquids uid pow^
den were dellbcntely made into
paste ao they could Join tiie parade.
Along came ghies, cements, sraxes,
greases, printer's inks, pas^ deco
rations and many otiicr SMiti-
liquids.
Lt. Col. S. Alvin Creed arrived at
his home in Camden on Chrbtmas
