of their elders) and to pro-

(From page 1)
The soil, perhaps; the sea-
son maybe, or something
wasn’t just favorable as it
might have been. For, when
the potatoes were dug this
fall they were rather small.
But-—and this is the am-
azing thing—the insides ac-
tually were blue.
To prove their point to
Stoner, they gave him a few.
And, because we also ap-
parently appeared to doubt
a little, he gave us two.
When cut opened,
smelled like potatoes, look-
ed like potatoes and even
tasted like raw potatoes. Yet,
they were blue.
Well, now we've seen ‘em.
But, how in the world could
you sit down to a table and
enjoy eating blue mashed
potatoes?
So, the potatoes were blue
—but about the egg.
Dr. C. H. Stites, of Park
avenue, appeared one day
last week armed with two
items. One was a color polo-
roid picture and the other
was an egg—about the size
of a pigeon egg.
At Root’s market last week
the family had bought “good
fresh country eggs’. Among
them was one which was ra-
ther large.
When Mrs. Sites cracked
open this particular egg, low
and behold, there was an egg
inside the egg.
Along with the white and
the yellow, which she pour-
ed out onto a plate, was a
they
perfectly formed smaller,
white shelled egg.
The doctor, quick as a
flash, took a picture—to cap-
ture the oddity in color, and
I suppose, to be used as
“evidence” for the “Thom-
ases”’ he might encounter as
he told the story.
As he walked away from
our office after telling his
story, he nonchalantly drop-
ped the little jewel of an egg
which had hitchhiked its way
into his home into the side
pocket of his jacket.
Someone suggested that it
was a pullet which produced
the oddity. Someone else said
that he bet there wasn’t any
yellow in the little egg.
As we watched doc out of
sight we wondered to our-
self how long it would be
before the man of the heal-
ing arts bumped that jacket
pocket against the car door
or some other hard object.
If and when he did, then—
we bet — the good doctor
learned whether there was a
yellow in that little egg.
—F.AR.
New Ideas
About First Aid
Although many first aid
procedures have been chang-
ed and improved, most peo-
ple cling to outmoded tradi-
tional methods, usually out
of ignorance.
Red Cross officials point
out that research and rethink-
ing have developed new,
more effective techniques
for coping with emergencies
such as:
—Cuts. A careful washing
with gause dipped in soap
and water is recommended.
Todine or other germ-killers
should not be applied be-
cause they can kill tissue and
retard healing.
—TFood or an object stuck
in someone's throat and
choking him. Immediate, re-
peated slaps on the back are
dangerous because they may
force the victim to suddenly
suck in his breath or cough.
Recommended: do nothing
for a while to allow the vic-
tim to relax and cough up
the object by himself. If
nothing happens, you should
reach inside his throat to
try to remove the object
with your fingers or lean him
forward and then_ slap him.
If a child is involved, turn
him upside down to dislodge
the obstruction.
—Burns. Never apply but-
ter or other household grease
For a minor burn, apply cold
running water or a cloth dip-
ped in cold water until the
pain stops. For a serious
burn, when the skin is brok-
en, apply a dry sterile dress-
ing, held in place by a band-
age.
—A nosebleed. Tilt the
person’s head all the way
back and pinch his nostrils.

color to frescoes and collag-

with its challenge to the

Homes have become beau-
tiful, elaborate and conven-
ient beyond the power of
words to express.
This week we heard of a
refinement in living which
seems really delightful!
In a beautiful, new brick
home atop a hill in the Man-
heim area, there's a lovely
kitchen, cimplete with a
sizeable breakfast bar. The
kitchen complete with a
table has decorative little
faucets installed on it, from
one of which near-boiling wa-
ter may be drawn for instant
coffee or tea; the other 1s
equipped with ice water!
