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. An organization of women, handicapped by a name of 66 letters, starts campaigning for a constitu*. tional amendment by which war couldn't be declared Swept by the people, through referendum. An ex cellent inbvement, but easier said.than done. Politi cians realize that thcrc'd never be another- war if the - could vote on it. We have self-government— except when we need it most.

The city man is forever talking about the glories of living out in the country, close to nature. But most of us cling to the city.

The * ef animus or controlling lun; of civilized life is ^swarming instinct, not comfort'and health. Are we needlessly excited about the British and Dutch “rubber monopoly”? B. G.

Beyond that point, it increases to Protect the growers themselves.

The propaganda machine in PJIyOndon has slipped the \yord to thbm. ;i)elief is growing among, scientists, that the jjterican Indian’s remote ancestors came from Asia, issibly China. They probably arrived on foot in stead of by ship. Recent exploration- by paleontolo gists indicates that Alaska and Siberia in ancient times were connected by a land bridge, which later sank into the ocean. What difference does it makejd where they came from? We are too much interested in the past, not enough in the future. If you investi gate humanity’s origin, yon are a scientist. If you investigate humanity’s destination, science usually laughs and calls you a faker.
