J. Kirk. Perhaps This Is Why Market Venders Age A reporter On the Los Angeles Times was sent out on a very important mission to find out where Angelenos make most of their foolish remarks. Was it at the 200? at the railroad stations? at information desks? Not at 9 all. Most of the senseless remarks made in Los Angeles, he found, were made in the big public markets.

"Sometimes I think half the funny slips in the city are made right in front of this stall here," volunteered one vender. "Only the other day a young woman came up and asked for a pound of bacon already fried. Of course, what she wanted was bacon already sliced." Another vender spoke up: a young man came and asked me for. some eggplants. started picking some out.

He said he didn't want those things, he wanted eggplants. I replied they were eggplants. Well, we argued back and forth, and then he clinched the argument by saying that he knew they weren't eggplants, because eggplants are flat and round, like slices of pineapple. 1 I gave in." Corrugations in Roads Corrugations appearing in the surface of gravel roads appear to be formed by the kick back of surface materials arising from the spin of the rear wheels of automobiles as they descend after the bounce over some obstacle or depression, and also from the impact of both the front and the rear wheels of automobiles. A small obstacle.

or depression In the road wiN cause a vehicle to bounce and strike the road with the above mentioned effect. A few such occurrences are sufficient to form a corrugation, and this corrugation may result in the formation of one ahead, and thus the process continues. This theory is confirmed to a certain extent by the fact that corrugations very rarely o- cur on grades, where ascending cars will -cling more closely to the road. and descending cars in neutral do not give much spin to: the rear wheels in descending after a slight bounce.

He cannot swim like the otter, nor climb like the marten, nor run like the fisher, 8878 Nature Magazine. He, has neither the strength of the wolverene nor the flerceness of the weasel. Yet he has outlived all these members of his family by developing 'a Mttle specialty of his own which bids fair to save him from the attacks of civilization for many years to come.

The motion of Steuer to have the case called a mistrial came when Buckner was vigorously questioning Merton regarding correspondence between the Swiss society and John Foster Dulles, lawyer, regarding the possibility of taking up the 000 claim. After Judge Mack denied the motion.

Stock Transfer Was Oral Those weaknesses, according to Merton, were the fact that the stock of the Swiss society, the claimant, was German-controlled, and the fact that the transfer of the stock of the American Metal company to the Swiss society was based on 'an oral transaction.

"This is my cousin, Tom Wales," Kate announced. Tom, here is crowd. Find out their names for yourself--it's so tiresome to introduce you all round.

I never could get Tom come to one of our parties before- Kate stopped short, so surprised was to see her cousin standing there at Maud's side, apparent most delighted to be with her.

Meantime Maud stood looking more than a little confused, hoping against hope; that attention the girls had not paid too close to her revised passport. Kate broke the short pause. "Tom, are you interested in mushroom growing?" she asked, shaking Anger at him.

Then two cousinly arms were laid on his shoulders and Kate looked intently Into his face. "Yes, your mouth is big and pugnaclous and, bless my heart, you're getting A little bald."
