STATE. mmmm Forestry in Europe The Zurich municipal forest, the Sihlwald, has been producing wood crops for nearly a thousand years, and in 1422 the city council decided that the cut of that forest should not exceed 20,000 pieces of timber per year. This order constituted the first recorded forest regulation that is known. Led by Germany, Swe den and France, all the principal European countries now have gov ernment forest agencies in many cases have laws to regulate the cut ting of timber on private lauds. Pick Right Knife Whether a knife is sharp and stays sharp depends on the quality of the steel blade, the grinding of the blade and the way it is tem pered. The finest blades are forged and thus are strong, flexible and easy to grind. ; RULE BOOK FOR CIVILIZATION By GEORGE S. BENSON President oi Harding College Searcy. Arkansas B , ~ .IKE THOUSANDS of other Americans in 1941 I bought a new car. I got an Oldsmobile. I am still using the car and get ting good service out of it, and I believe I know why. A book of instructions came with it, and because I believed the people who made the car could tell me a great deal about how to run it, I studied that book carefully. I got excellent service from the automobile throughout the entire war, and am still using it. I believe that happened be cause I followed the instructions of those who made the Oldsmo bile. Doing that, I could expect to get good service. The whole idea seemed like good logic to me. May I submit an application for this home-made parable? If this principle works with auto mobiles, it should have some mer it when applied to things largei and more important. Will you follow me in this application? Handbook THE BIBLE is the For Mortals book of instruc tions from the Cre ator who made the world and the fullness thereof. It is the book containing the laws, rules, and advice that we mortals should read and study in order that we may know how to proceed. It is the instruction book on how to operate that part of the Creator’s handiwork with which we are in volved. Careful study of this in struction book will bring great dividends. I am glad to live in a land where a National Bible Week finds enthusiastic support. This year October 20 to 26 has been so designated. Did you know that twelve of the thirteen little colonies *vir*ed along the Atlan ta -'■"Vi''-, were founded by people who came to America seeking religious freedom? Thei> lives were guided and dominated by the Bible. But perhaps even they did not visualize the kind of America to come — the America to come because of what the; did. Bill Of LATER, when our Freedoms Constitution was framed, the men who wrote it were men who believed the Bible and who looked upon it as God's "instruction book." These men desired to maintain for their descendants and for pos terity, the kind of Individual free dom which they believed the Creator had decreed for every in dividual. To them, that was ore of the instruction rules out of the book. That Constitution, when adopt ed and amended in 1789, carried with it the greatest bill of indi vidual freedoms that any nation has ever enjoyed. Under thes. freedoms, America developed the j greatest measure of well-being1 and prosperity that any segment of mankind has ever developed 0:11 this earth. It may be said, with-: out any doubt, that the freedoms j and liberties which brought our ' prosperity grew directly from the religious foundation laid by our forefathers. I am glad to feel that we Americans are bo dedicated to the basic concepts of law and practice j as they are found in the Bible. If J. we will look to God’s instruction J book for guidance at all times in 5 the future, making it our source •, book for living, then our future j is secure. Only in that way may | America preserve liberty and? freedom — and even civilization, j through the coming decades and centuries. “Blue Monday” Brightened by the New Packaged Spaghetti Dinners IF a hard day’s washing, ironing, ' or cleaning cuts into the time you j lave for meal preparation, there's . good news for you in the new pack-1 aged spaghetti dinners.

It wasn’t long after we were settled in our compact little apart ment that I began dreaming of a winding stair case, large, gra cious rooms and acres of closet space. All for “some day” I clipped floor plans, collected decorating tips and selected lovely color schemes. I hen one cozy wintry evening I an nounced to the Man of the House that my dream home was ready— on paper—from doorknobs to book alcoves. Naturally, I agreed mag nanimously, plans were subject to extensive alterations to suit his pleasure. Well. The cad took a quick look and guffawed! i It appears you can’t have run ning water where you want it with out pipes. But, you can have water where you don't want it unless you have such unromantic-sounding things as gutters, downspouts and flashings. The first two “things”, my spouse informed me, conduct water from the roof while flashings prevent leakage at joints such as where the roof meets the chimney. To top off my chagrin, the Ever Wise produced booklets, pamphlets and the summary of a talk he had had with an architect friend, all concerning safeguarding the home with copper and brass. < Patiently he explained that cop per tube and red brass pipe are] sturdy, rust-free and resistant to corrosion. “So?” I asked, still a little hurt. “Look”, says he, “good brass and copper plumbing willi deliver rust-free water for more years than you can think about) Furthermore, when about 50 tons of water fall on the average roof every year, the gutters and down spouts have to be good. The best is none too good for the Stuarts, and that means copper." I was pleased as wedding punch to know he had carefully planned for our future home—and told him so. But no matter what anyone says, leave it to a man to have the last word. I was just drifting off to sweet dreams when he brought forth the clincher. “And another thing—copper piping that brought water to Egyptian Pharoahs more than 5,500 years ago can still con vey water!"

The insole is made of fine plastic meshlike material. Every step pumps air into the shoes. An Austrian shoemaker has announced electrically warmed shoes. A small battery fits into a cavity in the heel and keeps the shoe constantly warm. Eighty-five per cent of all the 20 million cattle hides consumed annually in the United States aro used in the manufacture of shoes. Injection Without Needle* Using the principle of oil cylinder ■prays, which inject a needlelike spray, University of Maryland school of medicine has found it is possible to inject fluids into the body without use of needles of any kind. Medicinal preparations, by this new method, inject the dose in deeper than the conventional needle method, and it hurts less, special ists claim. Alcohol From Banana* Alcoholic beverages have been made from bananas. Some years ago banana whisky experiments were conducted in Guatemala. Ba nana wine from fully ripe fruit al lowed to ferment in water was known in the West Indian island of Barbados as early as 1657. Dena tured alcohol from bananas is an age-old possibility.

With Grain of Salt Not so many years ago salt was used in payment of a fine in central Africa. When a murder was com mitted, according to custom, the community in which the murderer lived was responsible for paying the blood-money. The chief of the vil lage went around on an appointed day and collected from each of his subjects two cupped handfuls of salt. This was pooled to form pay ment for the life taken. Women Live Longer The average length of life for white women in the United States has reached the remarkably high figure of 69.5 years, according to statisticians of the Metropolitan Life Insurance company. For men the average length of life is 64.5 years, and for the American people as a whole, 66 years.
