There must have been something more than legend to such fascinating anecdotes. For now that clouds are back on their old job, it seems that Jim Lan- agan, one of the doormen at the Plaza hotel, left something like $30,- 000 on Wall Street.

Which caused many an eyelid to lift.

She had always wanted to be an artist, and after studying with Chase in New York figured she| had to make a living.

The man or maid who said it first on meeting a person of the opposite sex received a present. In Scotland the first young man or girl one met by chance on Valentine’s Day became the valentine. There is reason to be- lieve, however, that it was permis- sible to close the eyes and refuse to open them until the desired mate ar- rived. The first record of a valentine drawing is given in the diary of the omniscient Mr. Pepys, who writes in 1667: “This morning came up to my wife’s bedside little Will Mercer to be ther valentine and brought her name ‘writ upon blue paper in gold letters.” In the 18th and early 19th centuries ‘valentine messages were written on . heavy gilt-edged paper and further ‘adorned with gilt cupids gummed on.

(New York World-Telegram) The health of Americans, despite the depression, has never been better than in the past few years, accord- ing to a report of a speech by Dr. Haven Emerson, of the College of Physicians and Surgeons, in yester- day's newspapers. Medical science, he said, has re- duced the death rates in all but two classes, diabetes and suicide. Other reports of mid-depression health have gained currency. But their validity seems more apparent than real. The hospitals of New York City report no decline, but an increase, in the total number of days of care. The decline has been among patients who used to pay for more ex- pensive rooms. Ward patients have inereased. And the clinics are over- run, just as the hospitals are over- crowded. ‘The number of deaths is not a true gauge of the inroads which the un- sion, through its denial of enough nourishing food to children by the hundreds of thousands, is storing up ill health for future years, The improved health which might Can you shift the above numbers around so that when they are properly placed, any row containing 3 squares will total 24?
