Deaths In Hotels Come In Cycles Of Three, Owners Say You seldom will hear an employee of a hotel reveal any details about a death in the hotel, which is the unmentionable among hotel employees. There a reason.

Tradition is that one death in a hotel usually is followed in a short time by two more. "They come in cycles of three," the old-time hotel employee will say. They dislike hat first one to occur.

"Once photosynthesis is understood so well as to be capable of luplication in our laboratories, here would be available continu-rg energy to such amount as to illow us to be totally indifferent the state of our balance of store leposits of oil and coal." he said. Key in Green Leaf Understanding and duplicating his process by which green leaves itilize sunlight for creation of would be of far greater sig-nficance than efforts for finding ynthetic coal or oil, which, he aid, are "misdirected energy and iensationalism."

Practical Results Stressed Bacteriologists and medical men tave contributed valuable knowl-fdge to the field of human health. ut little use is made of these ontn but ions, he asserted. "If. every person would follow lefinable precautions, all of the najor bodily ailments except and colds would dwindle into nsignificance," he said.
