} y. .. Johnny was being given a sound tuning as punishment for break ing his mother’s favorite vase. Far from having the desired effect, it seemed to be a cause for merriment, and Johnny shook with laughter. “J o b n n y,” said his mother, sternly, “I should think you would take your punishment seriously. This is not a joke, you know.” “Oh, but Mother, it is a joke,” replied Johnny, ‘‘and it’s on you. I didn’t break the vase— Bobby did.” No Favors On his visit to Norway, a man was impressed with the unpreten tiousness and democratic conduct of members of the royal family. When he saw a photograph of the King carrying his suitcase to the train while the adjutant who fol lowed him carried nothing, he re marked to a Norweigian, ‘‘Can you imagine I The King even carries his suitcase himself.” ‘‘So what?” replied the Nor wegian, ‘‘It’s his, isn’t it?” • • • Reckon So f A midw'esterner, traveling in the East for the first time, was on his way to Philadelphia. He be came nervous as he neared his destination, and when the train stopped at North Philadelphia wondered if he should have gotten off. He didn’t, however, and, turn ing to his seatmate for assurance, asked if the train would stop at the Broad street terminal. ‘‘Well, 1 certainly hope so,” was the re ply, ‘‘because if it doesn’t we shall all be in a devil of a mess.” 3 Generations of Cowans Praise Crazy Crystals Mrs. C. C. Cowan, 1507 Trice Ave., Waco, whose bright, cheery personal ity is a source of joy to the whole neighborhood, says her family and her mother’s family have, as long as she can remember, | never been without Crazy Water Crys tals. Mrs. Cowan thinks th ? s is proof beyond proof of the goodness of Crazy Water Crys tals. Mrs. Cowan says: “I have used Crazy Water for at least thirty years and ray mother and father be fore me used Crazy Water. I am 72 years old and now my daughter has started using Crazy Water Crystals and I take them, not only as a laxa tive, but also to mix with artesian water, and have a wonderful drink.** It doesn’t matter how old you are or where you live—Crazy Water Crystals are good for you because they r.re nature’s own product.

Answer: Probably, if you have nightmares at all. According to Dr. Irving D. Harris, writing in the magazine. Psychiatry, two of the most frequent types of ‘‘anx iety dreams”—those in which you feel that you are falling and the ones in which you are being at tacked—are rarely experienced by the same person. Of thirty-six pa tients whom he studied, twenty had had the former type of nightmare as children and adults and sixteen had had the latter, but not one had had both. It’s your childish feel ing toward your parents that de cides which type you will have. an intense, but unreal fascination. In such a case, if the partners can achieve a mutual understanding which leaves no room for guilt or grudge-bearing, there’s no reason why the marriage should not be resumed on a firmer foundation than before. Does unfaithfulness destroy a marriage? Answer: That depends upon the circumstances — and the kind of people the husband and wife are. Infidelity for either partner may really mean no more than a pass ing mood of bitterness — perhaps the result of accumulated but un spoken grievances—which for the time gives another woman or man Can you be “influenced* against your will? Answer: Not against your real will, ever. Character grows from within out, and the only way that anyone can “influence” you Is to give some quality or impulse that already exists in you a chance to develop and express itself. No body can “make” you fall in leva with him, for instance, if you do not have a (possibly unconscious) craving for the kind of happiness he seems to offer. And if you find yourself following another person’s advice “unwillingly,” what forces you to do so is your wish to have someone else make decisions tot you. ^HE.

THE DISCIPLES WERE CALLED THE FIRST "CHRISTIANS. 4 ' KEEPING HEALTHY Heart Pain Described in Journal By Dr. James W. Barton U NTIL A FEW YEARS AGO a patient with angina pectoris (pressure of pain in chest) was considered a heart case. Today angina pectoris is called cardiac (heart) pain. In “The Canadian Medical As sociation Journal,” Dr. Harold N. Segall, Montreal, states that after studying heart pain for the past 30 years he can repeat the descrip tion of this pain as given him by these patients. Instead of calling it a vise-like pain, as is taught to medical stu dents, the patients described it as a pain under the breastbone (stern um) and as “a sense of weight,” “pressure,” “pressing,” “squeez ing,” “load on the chest,” “burn ing,” “fullness.” The pain in most cases extends to the left arm, but occasionally to right or both arms. In a few cases there is discomfort in upper ab domen and shortness of breath. Dr. Segall states that in his ex perience there are three degrees of heart illness: mild, moderata and severe. In the mild type of heart pain (angina pectoris), called chronic, the pain lasts a short time, and is brought on most commonly by walking outdoors— not just by walking itself, nor by any other type of exertion. Sometimes just the sense of hur ry brings on the pain. The patient notices that after the pain passes he can walk for hours continuously without any return of the pain. Pain is relieved or prevented by nitroglycerin. In the moderate type, the pain lasts a little longer than in mild type, and appears for no apparent reason, even with patient at com plete rest There is a change in the electrocardiogram but this Is corrected within a day or less. Finally there is the severe type. Pain comes on for no apparent reason and lasts for two to four hours or more. Morphine is neces sary in these severe cases to re lieve the pain.

A 10-year study of erosion dam age at the Zanesville, Ohio experi ment station, showed that more than 88 per cent of the soil loss due to rainfall occurred in the six summer months. Farm soil is most vulnerable in summer be cause dean-cultivated row crops rovide during those months provide only a small amount of protection. High intensity summer rains cause soil losses in two ways, the Ohio research men say. Large sized drops strike the earth with such force they break the surface soil Into small particles that quick ly fill all surface pores. This seals the soil surface into a hard crust that water cannot penetrate. Ex cessive runoff and erosion losses are the result. Also, high intensity rain beats down so fast that even unsealed earth cannot take it as rapidly as it comes. Thick stands of deep-rooted le gumes and grasses will provide a soil-protecting cover that will en able the laud to take high intensity rains in stride. To produce dense, leafy stands, the legumes must be well fed: That means liming, where needed. Fiv«-Point Program THIS PROGRAM MEANS PROFITABLE PRODUCTION. • Soti- Program 1soil fisTIN® |2- PLANT FOOD oqqanic matter 5o/| - SAVIN® (H A five-point program to “balance the soil’s needs” and obtain maxi mum crop yields per acre at lowest production costs, was outlined by O. T. Coleman, Missouri university extension soils specialist. Here are the steps Coleman sug gests: 1— Provide plenty of plant food in available form for growing crops. 2— Have soil tests made to find out whether the plant food supply is in balance. Growing crops need a balanced ration the same as do humans and livestock. A soil test will be a guide in adding the kind and amount of plant nutrients the soil needs. S—Get the soil in condition so crops can use the plant foods. Thip means building up the organic mat ter supply. Organic matter can be added and soil tilth improved by growing well-fed deep-rooted le gumes such as alfalfa or sweet clover In the rotation. When the soil is well stocked with plant nutrients and organic matter, minerals are released so that plant roots can more efficiently use them. 4— Keep water, plant nutrients and soil at home by conservation meth ods. Where needed, these may in clude terracing and contouring to reduce runoff and erosion losses on upland soils. 5— Follow a well-balanced crop ping system. Rotate pasture and green manure crops regularly with grains. Livestock is a “must” to properly make use of pasture and roughage crops. Tests have shown that where a crop la pastured off, about 75 per cent of the organic mat ter is returned to the soil through manure. Remodeled Fann Kitchen Saves 45 Miles Yearly Mrs. Georage C. Wheatcroft of Warren county, Kentucky, recently had a farm kitchen remodeled into a u-shape, saving an estimated 45 miles of walking a year. She says: “I can now prepare three meals and take only 250 to 300 steps where it did take 300 to 500, and that means a saving of 45 miles a year. Besides saving miles it saves time and is much more at- | tractive. Campfire Flavors Are Easy to Capture When You Broil Meat Cuts W HEN YOU LONG for the taste of campfire cookery and still want the convenience of your kitch en, plan some broiled dinners! Broiling gives an irrestible flavor to meats as wed as fruits and veg etables to go with the meats. It’s a quick method of cook ing, too, for, in most cases, the broiler meal takes only 15 minutes to one-half hour to cook. Most homemakers like to plan several broiled dinners for hot weather because they’re so quick and appetizing. Furthermore, since meat, vegetables and fruits can be placed cm the broiling tray, there’s only that single piece, of cooking equipment to be washed after din ner, in place of several pots and pans. To simulate a real out-of-doora supper several times a week, plan to serve on gay gingham cloth out on the porch or in the garden. The main course, hot and sizzling from the broiler, is easily carried out side. Select meats for broiling from this list: chopped beef or lamb, sausage, frankfurters, steaks, chick en (broilers), corned beef hash, left over chopped meat, small pieces of meat on skewers, bacon, sweet breads, pre-cooked ham slices, lamb chops, bacon or sausage. Pre-cooked or canned potatoes may be used with the meats, as well as cooked vegetables which need simply to be reheated. Broiled Lamb Chops Dinner (Serves 10) 10 pear halves 3 tablespoons melted batter 5 tomatoes, halved 14 cap chopped onion Salt and pepper Parmesan Cheese 10 loin lamb chops (about 1- inch thick) 5 teaspoons mint Jelly Parsley Drain pear halves thoroughly. Brush lightly with butter. Brush tomatoes with butter. Spread 1 tea spoon of onion on each half, season with salt and pepper and sprinkle with cheese. Arrange lamb chops on broiler and broil 8 to 10 minutes. Turn, if neces sary. Arrange tomatoes and pear halves on broiler, and finish broiling, another 8 to 10 minutes, or until degree of doneness desired is reached. Just before serving, place mint jelly in pear halves. Garnish with parsley. Broiled Sausage and Pineapple (Serves 4-6) X pound sausage (links or bulk) 4-6 slices pineapple Leftover potatoes, peas and carrots. Use sausage links or form bulk sausage into patties. Arrange on broiling pan. Arrange pineapple next to sausage and place potatoes, halved, and peas and carrots in pan underneath sausage and pineapple. Broil until sausage and pineapple are browned. Note: Pineapple Broiled halves of chicken are delightfully brown and Juicy and make a delicious main dish when served with whole, browned potatoes and tomato halves. The vegetables are placed in the broiler Just a few minutes before the chicken is done. LYNN SAYS: Learn to Use Broiler As Wisely as Possible Catch the drippings that come from meat and poultry when broil ing fowl and use it to season veg etables so that no vitamins and min erals in the drippings are lost. When broiling fowl or cuts of meat or fish that are lean, grease the broiler so that food will riot stick to it. | Do not allow the broiler to be come overheated as this will cause smoke in the kitchen. This broiler meal, featuring beef patties, topped with onion rings with a square of -cheese, browned potatoes and tomatoes, will be popular with the young folk. Hus broiler shown here broils food on both sides at the same time, and requires no turning.

Brush skin and underside with butter, then season with salt and pepper. The chicken may first be placed in a hot oven to cook for 15 to 20 minutes, then in the broiler to complete the cooking, another 15 to 30 minutes, depending upon how done one likes it.

Keep broiler pans washed after each use as the fat and drippings from meat, fish and fowl will easily turn rancid and make your clean ing greater if you let it go. Plan broiler meals for a time when you have leftover,, cooked vegetables on hand that can be heated with the meat; otherwise, use canned or freshly cooked veg etables. The thicker the cut of meat broiled, the further away from the heat of the flame it should be placed.

AAA Smattmouth Bass |N NEARLY evert section of the * United States more and more anglers are Joining the hundreds of thousands who have matched wits and muscles with the smaHmouth bass. The reason is simpla. “Inch for inch and pound fo* pound, the gamest fish that swims,** wrote Dr. James Henshall in his “Boric of the Black Bass**. That is exactly what sportsmen have decided. < Known to scientists as ml- eropteras dotemlen, call him by a number ef —black ban, black perch, bronze back, brown baas, grid baas, little ban, redeye, swage ban and tiger ban. On light tackle the last ef these fit about as well as any for he is a fight ing fori when hooked. The smaBmouth is really a mem ber of the sunfish family, along with the crappies, rock bass, green sunfish. bluegill, longear sunfish and others. As a rule, our hero is easily separated fi^om his two close relatives, the largemouth black bass, and the spotted or Kentucky black bass, because he has smaller scales and his mouth extends only to the middle of his eye instead of beyond the back edge of the eye. He does not have the black stripe along his Ndes that causes the other two to be called linesidcs. Instead, the smallmouth has vertical black blotches or bars of darker color. The smallmouth favors cool, flow ing streams and clear lakes. Along with several other fish, it prefers lakes in the northern portion of its range and clear, cool streams in the south—streams with gravel or rock bottom, preferably boulder strewn, with large pools between riffles. It still occupies much of its original range in east central and midwest states. In the spring, when the water temperature reaches about 60 degrees, the males begin nest building. The male then finds a female and drives her over the nest, where the eggs are laid and fertilized. If there are more females than males, there may be eggs from two, three, or four females in a nest. The male guards the nert, keeping off intruders and preventing the at tacks of small fish on the eggs. The eggs hatch in three or four days and the males continue to care for the young until they are about an inch long. At that time they disperse and are then legiti mate prey for any larger fish—in cluding their parents. Their growth is rapid. They Will reach about’ 3 inches in the first year, 534 to 6 inches the second, and 8 or 0 in the third. A small mouth 18 inches long may be any where from 7 to 13 years old, de pending on his home river and local conditions. t Minnows are the most suc cessful lore for smallmouth in northern lakes, followed by spinners, pings and worms. Pings generaUy take the larger ones. The tendency now Is to> ward smaUer pings.

It is the number one game animal in the state by preference and by number killed.
