Bellefonte, Pa., June 19, 1981. FIND MEAT 1S BEST DIGESTED BY DOES HUMAN'S THAN ANY OF FARM ANIMALS. If you saw a man and his dog walk: ing down the street, you would not be likely to confuse one with the other, but if you saw ‘skeletons of the two mounted in a museum, with the man down on all fours in the position of the dog, you might have quite a time of It puzzling out which Is which, de- clares the Chappel Kennel Foundation, Rockford, Illinois. The strikinz similarity In the anat- omy of man and dog Is well shown In the accompanying illustration prepared by the Foundation. The dog's anatom- fecal structure is more nearly like a < human's than that of any of the farm ~ animals. Te statement holds true mot only of ("e skeleton formation but also of the organization and operation of the internal organs. In fact, what we know today of the working of man’s internal organs has been learned largely as the result of experimental work on dogs. Proper feeding is the keynote of su cessful dog keeping. If man may be sald to thrive best on a mixed diet of meat and vegetables, meat must form | Odd New Zealand Bird, | | Kiwi, Nears Extinction The strangest bird in the world— the kiwi-kiwi, is described as follows | In Boys' Life, the Boy Scout publi i i i i | cation. “Native of New Zealand, he nearly makes fact of ancient fable—current when the continent was first discov- ered—that everything around Austra- lia was upside down. The kiwi is practically wingless and completely flightless. Fle has no visibie tail.

His nos- | trils, unlike any other bird's, are at the base and bulk of any satisfactory | “food for dogs. Despite the beliefs hell by many people, the dog Is by nature SKELETON OF A MAN ‘on all fours" 7 ~fo that of a dog CHAPPEL KENNEL FOUNDATION a flesh-eating animal and his digestive system Is Ideally adapted to the han- ging of meat. No one has succeeded in preparing a perfectly balanced ra- * tion for humans, but It has been done for dogs with horse meat, cereals, pow- - dered bone, cod liver oil and other matural foods, prepared in balanced proportions. Tests with hundreds of + dogs have shown that a dog fed on it— | plus possibly some dog biscuits in the morning—required nothing else save | water. This Is the ration fed the ex- © perimental dogs in the Northwestern | “umiversity medical school and the famed movie dog, Rin-Tin-Tin, recently - mabjected to s'ringent physical exami- | bations after eight years on this regime, was found to be in condition “that belied his 13 years, Of particular interest to the dog owner will be the following informa- ‘tien from a report on the efliciency of * warious foods given dogs under vari- - ous conditions by three members of * the Mayo Clinic. + mmong the best-digested foods, and the . fmvestigators marveled at the thor- © sughness with which they were di- + gested. On the other hand, practically ‘ mone of the starch of a corn source © was digested, as evidenced by the residue which appeared to be un- + changed. Furthermore, it passed * through the digestive tract slowly, re- ‘quiring more than 24 hours. Also Poorly digested were stewed tomatoes, ‘Baked bananas, stewed prunes, stewe:l ‘corn and beets.

In small flocks, the few kiwis left of a disappearing species inhabit New Zea- land's hilly forests. Females burrow long tunnels, laying in a nest at the very end of it two large eggs—eggs a quarter the length of the whole bird. Incubating is entirely the job of th male. “Maoris are very fond of kiwi flesh broiled or roasted, so fond that the bird was well hunted out before ever a white man saw one. Now the pe culiar bird, distant relative of ostrich, emu, cassowary, and survivor of a species that flourished with the ex- tinet, gigantic dinornis and fierce, slug- gish moas, miillons of years ago, is fast approaching extinction.” Marriage Promise Just Incident of Vacation? A New Yorker, lifted out of his nabitual caution by the balmy atmos- phere of Florida during a winter va- cation, brought suit against a girl he met down there, to recover a ring. The young lady contested the suit. When it came up In court, the youn, aan sald that they had enjoyed a fond good-by on the beach, but later, when both had returned to New York, the girl had passed him up cold. The girl herself admitted it, saying: “I really didn't know whether . should recognize him or not. Our ac- quaintance in Florida was really very slight.” “But,” exposiulated the court, glanc ing at the sparkling ring, “you prom- | Ised to marry him, didn't you?" “Why, yes,” admitted the girl, “bu. that was all."—lLos Angeles Times. Europe's “Holy Alliance” The Holy Alliance was the name cf a league formed by Russia, Austria and Prussia after the fall of Napo- | leon in 1815 for the purpose of regu- lating the affairs of Europe “by the principles of Christian charity,” says an article In Pathfinder Magazine. Notwithstanding Its professed purpose the real policy of the Holy Alllance was to make every endeavor possible to stabilize existing dynasties and to resist all change. The league endured until 1830 and was In time joined by all the Important and European mon- archs except those of England and Turkey. The Monroe Doctrine was enunciated largely to warn the Holy Alliance not to Interfere with the new- ly established republics in Latin Amer- ica. Biblical Flowers There are comparatively few flow | ers named in the Bible. It is report- | ed that as a whole the Syrian people | were not particularly fond of flowers. Among those named are the myrtle, Isaiah, 4:13; Rose of Sharon, Isaiah, 35:1; Song of Solomon, 2:1; lily, I Kings, 7:26; Son of Solomon, 2:18, 6:23; Matthew, 6. Flax Is found In! Exodus, Genesis, Leviticus, Esther, Judges, Proverbs and Kings. Burning bush (or acacia) Is mentioned in Ex. odus, 3:4. The lily is an Arabic gen- eral term and applies to the tulip, ranuculus, narcissus, iris, water lily, and particularly the anemones which carpet the ground during the summer season throughout Palestine. Treasure Trove on Farm On the land of a widow farmer of Aarhus (Denmark) 6,000 copper and silver coins of the days of Eric Glip- ping (1259-1286), king of Denmark, were found. It was In the reign of this king that the first rigadag, or gen. eral assembly, became an established legislature in Denmark. The coins, as treasure trove, were by law the prop erty of the state, but the widow re celved a sum of money In exchange. Only Daddy | Elizabeth Ann's mother was telling | the little girl and her sn all brother the story of Cinderella. Suddenly | there came a knock from the front door, i “Go see who's there,” sald her moth. | er. “Maybe it's the fairy prince.” | Elizabeth Ann hurried from the room. “No, It isn't a fairy prince,” she called back, disappointedly from the hall. “It's only daddy!” —— — Big Business John, age eight, had just been pro- | moted to 3A. One day when he came home he was telling his mother about | their new organization; that they had alected a president, vice president and such. Mother asked what the object of the organization was and after a moment John replied: “To promote better citizenship.” 1 i i i i i i Block House in Baluchistan, (Prepared by the National Geographic Society, Washington, D. C)) URING the disturbed conditions of the past year along the Afghan border of India, Baluch- istan, a short distance to the south—another potential trouble zone for Great Britain—has been relatively quiet, Only on one or two occasions were their minor disturbances in this western frontier province. The customs of Baluchistan are vastly different from those of the West, and many a strange compromise has to be made by the British politi- cal agents in dispensing justice among the natives. The British do not own Quetta, «hough they conquered a small region north of it. They hold it under a per- petual lease from the khan of Kalat. Mormerly the ferocious tribes of these barren mountains and beyond used to depend largely for their existence up- on raids Into Indla, and for a time they lived sumptuously on the spoils of Delhi, Horde after horde of these savage warriors established temporary | sovereignties over the rich cities of the central plains, only to be over- whelmed In turn when they became soft under the influence of luxury. Much of the trouble among the na- Jdves In Baluchistan concerns wives. Girls are not of as much consequence as boys, and their parents give the warm coats and best food to the sons; | so that the death rate among daugh- | ters 18 much higher, with the result that there are not enough wives to go around, especially as some of he richer men avail themselves of the Prophet's permission and buy more than one helpmate, Wives, like camels, are bought at aigh prices, and, like camels, gre often stolen, The girl's preference is not consuited, and as her betrothal In many cases has taken place before her birth, she not infrequently pre- fers another to her husband. Woe to her, however, If her unfaithfulness is discovered or suspected, for It then becomes the duty of her husband, her son, her father, or her brother to kill her without mercy, and to kill her lover, too, if he can be found, What Adam Khan Did. Adam Khao was sizteen years old. Jne night he was wakened and went to the tent door, but found no one. It happened a second time, but even the camels were quiet. So he lay and listened, and the third time he saw a man whispering to his mother, Amina. As Adam roused his father, Dost Mo- | hammed, the lover, Nasho, escaped. Dost Mohammed loved his wife and shrank from killing her. Nay, he even tried to protect her against the venge- ance of her son, So It happened that when Adam tried to shoot his mother it was his father who first fell, After. ward she, too, was slain. Then, while It was yet dark, Adam hid In a nul- lah (gully) near the door of her lover, with his gun pointed and cocked. The lover, however, had been too ¢rafty to return home, and when Adam Khan shot the first man who came out | of the hut, in the gray twilight, it was | the lover's father, Karim, who fell groaning. As he was desperately wounded, the old man of his own ac- cord raised his head that another merciful bullet might end his suffer Ing. When day was advanced, and the £nglish political agent had fAnished his breakfast, Adam Kban sought him and demanded justice, Perhaps you would think justice «ould begin by hanging Adam. Far from it! That would have started a feud which would have lasted, per- | haps, forever, and many yet unborn | would kill each other because the bal- ance of justice had, in this Instance, kicked the beam. The English politi. cal agent, wise from long experience, summoned the village elders and laid the case before them. Decision in Complicated Case. Well versed in the customs of their forefathers from time immemorial, the elders easily arrived at thelr decision, Had the case been simple, both the unfaithful mother and her lover would | have been slain and the case ended. | In leu of the lover, however, the lat- | ter's father had fallen and, so far, | all was well. But the boy Adam, im accomplish- «ng the necessary killing of his moth- er, had suffered the loss of hig father also. For this he deserved compen- sation. The blood recompense for plain murder is 8,000 rupees; but, as the case was complicated by the fact that the man's son and heir, not his enemy, had done, not a murder, but a manslaughter, the helr ought not to receive as much. Hence the elders de- creed that the lover should pay Adam Khan 500 rupees and besides provide him with two girls as wives. The English agent confirmed thi, | Solomonlike decision; the lover paid the rupees, gave one niece to Adam, and promised a daughter, yet unborn, | when she should be of marringeable age. All was acceptable to both par- ties and they have lived in love and harmony, after this happy union of their families, ever since, Not always, however, does the ng lish political agent comply exactly with the judgment of the elders, In the case of Miriam, for Instance, the political agent found her with her nose slashed off and bound up with a dirty rag. He asked her who had done this | “My husband,” said she, So the agent sent for the husbana | Ce Halim and asked why he had mutilat- ed his loving wife, “Oh, because I thought [ saw he speaking to Sharbat Khan,” said he “But uid she do 30?" inquired the agent, “Who knows? Halim, “Well, but I really cannot let you cut off your wife's nose for nothing at all,” said the political agent. “You must go to Jail for one year.” Halim Preferred the Jail. The elders came to the agent ana remonstrated against such severity. “Perhaps it would not have been amiss,” said they, “to put Halim in Jail for three months. Yet a man's wife is his own. She is bought with a great price. Why should he not cut off her nose if he pleases? It is, after all, his own loss. Surely, Sahib, you will let Hallm out of jail.” “Tomor- row,” sald the agent, “I will give my decision.” . The next day he pronounced this Judgment: “I will release Halim on either of two conditions, Either he must restore his wife's nose safe and sound or he must cut off his own nose { Perhaps not,” sai. in exactly the same fashion as hers.” | victor The elders were amused greatly by this alternative. They withdrew their | Hi Be ee protest, Halim served his term In Jail, decision pl ms voters of and was released without retaining | Tihsdas. Sepiembor a rancor against so just a sentence, In another instance the Mohamme dan Mahmud, instead of contenting himself with the girl chosen by his mother and sisters to be his wife and first to be seen by him after the mar- riage ceremony, found for himself a pretty Hindu girl and persuaded her to be his bride. But he could not make up his mind to marry her un- less she should first profess hir re- ligion, So Mahmud consulted the mullah of his village as to how she might be- come Mussulmani. The mullah made no difficulty of it. All that was neces sary, so he said, was that the lovely Hindu girl should say before him: “There Is no God but God, and Mo- hammed {8 the prophet of God.” “But stay,” added the priest. “You must pay for your bride, of course. As it would be sinful to give a great sum for her to the worthless Hindu, her father, you may give it to me, my son.” The young man easily perceived ths reasonableness of the first part of the priest's proposal, but he could not by no means see why his wife's dowry should be given to the priest. In his perplexity he consulted the chiefs of the wazirs, “The priest,” sald they, “is quit. | right In telling you not to give the dowry to the Hindus; but it should come to us, not to him. We are the authorities.” Billiard Table Instead of Feud. But before this was done the elders of the mahsuds heard of the transac- tion. While approving, like the wa- zirs, the withholding of the money from the Hindus, they let it be known that, being the superiors of the wa- zirs, the elders of the mahsuds were the proper recipients in this Instance. All parties appealed the question to the British political agent. After ma- ture consideration he readily foresaw | that either of the dispositions pro- posed would most probably lead to a | feud. Hence, In the Interest of peace and as representing the real topnotch | superior power of the whole region, he | very reasonably decided that the dow- | ry should be paid over to him, As there was no appeal possible, this was readily complied with, and the political agent, not knowing a bet- ter disposition, made it over to the club as a contribution for the new bil. liard table! HUTCHINS BLAMES WORLD'S In Baluchistan PLIGHT ON SCHOOL SYSTEM The present economic situation was blamed today on an educational sys- tem that teaches facts but not how to use them by Dr. Robert Maynard Hutchins, president of the University of Chicago, in a commencement ad- dress at Berea College. Dr. William J, Hutchins, president of Berea, conferred an honorary de- gree of doctor of law on young Hut- chins, and was thus the first college president to confer an honorary de- gree on his son, a college president. Young Hutchins said: “Ine world we have created is too much for us. ..e cannot tell who is responsible for anything. The ma- | chinery we have invented produces results that we did not foresee and cannot avoid. The industrial organi- zation that has developed carries us along, we do not know why. That we have been unable to manage the structure we have erected is a re. flection on the educational system we have developed.” Hutchins said the world needs more understanding rather than knowledge and an educational 8ys- tem which places a premium on in- dependent thinking. He added: “People are dying in equal misery in China and Chicago. Millions of men and women are hungry, home- less and ill-clad. The same streets they roam, mournful and disconso- late, are filled with the things they POLITICAL ANNOUNCEMENTS.
