A WISE OWL '
Scotland Has Its Own (
Beside having iis own language,
Scotland has as well its own music |
and its own dress, which are as/|
truly associated with the country as |
the heather on the hills, The bag-
pipes, the swinging kilts, and the |
multi-colored tartans are familiar,
every-day sights in Scotland, and
seem strange to the eye of the for-
eigner, At the same time as it seeks '
to preserve the age-old traditions,
Scotland is a country of busy com-
merce and industry and Glasgow,
on the river Clyde, is a thriving |
example. Its ship-building yards on |
both side of the river as far down
as Greenock are world-famous.
Those Forest Fires :
Nature will provide America with |
perpetual forests if we will protect
our woodlands from fire. Although
millions of seedling trees are plant- |
ed each year, nature is the greatest |
regenerator of our forests. In S06 |
areas of our country, 50 seedlings
spring up for every mature tree
harvested. Most so-called devas- |
tated forest regions are the result |
of repeated fires which have de.
stroyed young growth, seed sources
and soil humus in which seed must
germinate. With protection against
fire, most forests will perpetuate
themselves.
Dark Past Cures
Ancient man’s cure for mental ills
was magic. Strange rituals were
concocted to drive out evil spirits
that were causing the derangement.

Fighting Own Fires
Many homes are destroyed be-

small fires themselves. Hence the

department. Few homes are less

on beans related to the funeral of |
