Usually there is an elaborate introduction, that no doubt summoned the dancers to attention, observes a writer in the Detroit News. The waltz is the heart and soul of old Vienna. There was something in the very air that swept down from the surrounding hills and woods that made the people gay, child-like and courteous. Lovely Vi enna! Johann Strauss senior was the ; first waltz composer, and then his three sons, Joseph, Edward, and Jo i hann Jr. It was Johann Jr. who i earned the title, “The Waltz King of the World.” He wrote waltzes, waltzes, waltzes ! —five or six hundred of them. And he played them all the way from the brilliant courts of Franz Joseph (and even of Napoleon in Paris) to ' the public parks where the people of his native Vienna loved to dine and dance. Naturally each was given a name—any name, like “Vienna Blood” or “Tales from Vienna Woods.” “The Blue Danube” has made that river eternally blue, though in reality it is blue only if i the sky is in a very good humor. The people have placed a “denk mal” (think often) of Johann Strauss Jr. in the city park. Beauti ful rhythmic figures in stone float around him, where he seems still to stand and play his violin. Dutch East Indies’ Days Are of About Same Length The Dutch East Indies stretch a distance equal to that from New York to San Francisco. The popu lation totals 52,000,000. The island empire is equal in area to all the states east of the Missis sippi with the exception of the state of that name, reaching from the northern tip of Maine to the south ern tip of Florida, from Lake Michi gan to the Gulf of Mexico, includ ing 18 states. ( The whole empire lies full in the ' equatorial sun and reaches from the tip of northwestern Sumatra to the center of New Guinea (Papua). Throughout the islands all days in the year are about the same length, as the islands all lie close to the equator, notes a writer in the Cleve land Plain Dealer. The Dutch East Indies comprise the larger part of the Malay archi pelago and are situated between Australia and southeastern Asia. Their extent may be realized from the fact that the distance from Sa bang, north Sumatra, to Merauke, in New Guinea, respectively the western and eastern limits, is 3,000 miles—as wide as the Atlantic from New York to London. They include such groups as the Moluccas, Celebes, Sunda, Timor and Banda islands. Fourteen distinct kinds of people inhabit these islands, some of them very primitive, others highly civi lized. Size of Stockings In the manufacture of stockings the size is based on the distance in inches between a point on the toe and a point on the heel measured in a straight line. Size Bis eight inches more or less from the tip of the toe to the end-of the heel. Both men’s and women’s stockings are measured in this manner. Accord ing to the United States bureau of standards, women’s stockings are measured as follows: After the hose has been pressed and is flat and unwrinkled, a ruler is placed along a line in which the tip of the toe and the bottom of the heel gore are connected. The hosiery size is the distance in inches along this 1 line from tip of toe to the intersec tion of the ruler with the back of the heel. Only inches and half inches are represented in size num bers. Preference is given to the lower number. For instance, if the exact measurement is lOV4 inches the stocking is called size 10 rather than lOVfc. Dreams Are Short Dreams are of very brief dura tion in spite of the fact they some times seem to the dreamer to ex tend over long periods—hours or even days, according to a writer in the Detroit News. A few seconds may be the actual time of a dream that seemed to carry the dreamer through a long series of adventures. Dreams have no significance what ever in the foretelling of the futufe. They are merely impression pic tures, often distorted, created by our senses in our relationship with existence. Animals and the Weather In the old mythology cats were supposed to have a great influence on the weather. The stormy north west wdnd was called the “cat’s nose.” The dog and the wolf were both attendants on Odin, the storm god. In old pictures, there was often shown the head of a dog or wolf with gusts of wind issuing from > its open jaws. So we can take the cat as a symbol of heavy rain and ; the dog as representing the strong 1 wind usually accompanying a rain- J storm. 2 - 10 - 4 A special PEANUT FERTILIZER Recommended by County Agents and Agronomists.
