A CORNER IN TIN CANS
The Nashville. Tenn., Civic Clul. recently planned a
campaign in that town to clean it up. In order to do
1 this successfully they offered one cent lor each tin
r can turned in during clean up week. No one even
? Suspected a peck of trouble in an empty tin can, but
i that is just where they made their mistake.
1, , .After 60,.l00 tin cans had been delivered it was
found lhthe civic club was on the short side.
Funds were lacking to cover the shortage. A hit
I; (^youngsters had sailed in like a thousand of brick
and .were making a .killing- Thousands of tin cans
continued to pour in hut there were no funds to fill
the contract, all efforts to replentish the treasury
having failed.
- Then the real trouble started. One of the besiegers
took .the paymaster ride of the head with a tomato
1 can and instantly a perfect hailstorm of tin can 1 .
■ arose. The custodian of the exchequer, with the cry,
“Save who can," heatki hasty retreat. Fearing other
attacks the civic club succeeded in providing an
emergency fund of $200 to take care of all outstand
ing contracts. More than 10,000 additional cans were
turned in the day following, whereupon the cash
proposition was called off. Two hundred thousand
tin cans no w form a barricade along one of the main
thoroughfares of Nashville. They will be carted
back to the dump piles where many of them came
from and where tjiey, are destined to remain for a long
time before enterprising young Americans get an
other 1 whack at them.
I §)/ ‘ FROM THE GRAVE
* Men who have died (their hearts stopped beating
entirely) have occasionally been brought back to
life by injecting adrenalin into their hearts. Adren
alin—(host powerful heart stimulant, even more so
than nitro-glyccrin—sometimes can start the heart
beating again.
This has been known to the medical profession for
20 years. .Improved methods have been discovered
by Dr. Dennis W. Crile of Chicago. He makes the
announcement to the- Chicago Medical Society. Sim
jtllar results were obtained 1 about a month ago by Dr.
Karl Bodon of Budapest.
The adrenalin treatment, to be successful, must be
applied within 10'minutes after death. Also, the
cause of death must be removed. To understand that
last statement, it should be known that the adrenalin
injection is.of-most use in reviving patients who, hav
ing weak hearts, die from the anaesthetic during an
operation.
Incidentally, a heart that hns stopped is sometimes
■made to beat again by the surgeon using his knife
quickly to enable, him to massage the heart.
-- •Adrenalin is a chemical substance fxtractcr from
the adrenal .glands usually of sheep. These glands
are* located close to the kidneys. You have a set of
them. Take them away and you can’t live, for the
stimulant generated by the adrenals und shot into
the blood keeps the heart going—speaking broadly.
When you get excited, you sometimes fee! your
heart pounding fast Your adrenal glands, respond
ing to your emotional change, simply shoot more
adrenalin into your blood and over-stimulate your
heart. When the adronnis arc not active enough, the
pulse gets low and faint.

name of 66 letters, starts campaigning for a constitu*.

Swept by the people, through referendum. An ex
