BOYS ARE
THAT WAY
By J. M. ELEAZER
I've been telling you about the
delightful thin.es wo kids eot
from our country dr up; stole, so-
called.
Now I want to tell you about
the pdass showcase filled with till
sorts of penny candies. It was
the first of both I had seen. And
those fancy candies intnpued me.
They imitated till sorts of things.
There were the yellow marsh
mallow pieces that looked like
bananas. And the slabs of licorice
that carried metal stamps like
chewing tobacco. We liked that,
for with it we could spit red like
men.
But the one that interested me
most was the bird nests. Yes.
candy bird nests. And a striking
likeness too. The base was white
marshmallow about the size of a
small saucer. The depression in
it was filled with grated cocoa-
nut dyed green to look like nest
Tigjterial. And in it was an as-
Bortment of variously colored
little candy eggs that were stuck
to the nest. Those things at a
penny were a child’s delight. And
I often got my whole nickel in
’em. The grown folks would get
after me for spending my money
for “such trash.” But, alas, they
knew not the liking of a kid.
Grown folks often make that
mistake. For what looks like
sheer trash to them is often a
treasure indeed to a kid. Once I
happened to have a catalog of a
cow sale in the car. Cleaning the
car out, I started to throw it
away with some other trash. But
a small boy was playing nearby,
and I thought he might like to
have it. as the cover carried a
good color picture of a cow. He
took it eagerly, thanked me, and
said he had always wanted a
“cow book”. His folks told me he
treasured it far above expensive
birthday presents he had receiv
ed the day before.
So we have to try to look
through the eyes of a kid to find
out what he really wants. And
usually it does not coincide with
our idea at all.

An emergency wooden ‘‘iron
lung,” so simple and cheap to
construct that almost any com
munity, however small, can
build it, has been approved for
general use by the American
Medical Association.
The “lung,” credited with
saving the life of a young polio
victim when no standard respir
ators were available, was devel
oped and built by staff engi
neers under the direction of
Ralph Osborn, engineering vice
president of the Eureka Wil
liams Corporation.
Appproval was granted recent
ly and a 12-pagge booklet was
prepared by the company and
is available free from theAMA.
The lung is designed so that
it can be constructed by any
competent mechanic in any
community which can provide
an innertube for the diaphragn,
washing machine agitator and
standard 1 to 3 horsepower
motor, plus the wood.
Developed during a polio
epidemic in central lllinoins,
the lung was the result of the
company’s engineering staffs
working day and night to de
velop the lifesaving device.

Take Tithe Pledge
More than eighty members of

this week pledged one-tenth of
their total income to the church
for a three-month period beginn
ing Sept. 15, according to Neil
E. Truesdale, pastor. Mr. Trues-

paign to win 500,000 people and
supplement the regular benevo
lence program with an additional
