At Astoria in the early 1880's, the city council ordained that no person should be allowed to ride or drive a beast of burden faster than six miles an hour within the city limits. A higher ordinance at Oregon City read:
"That it is hereby made the duty of the night watchman to keep it order and light up the street lamps and keep the same burning from dark until daylight in the morning provided that they are not to be lit or kept burning when it is moon-light."
In 1875 a 10-year-old boy from Multnomah county, who was convicted of stealing candy, was sentenced to three years in the penitentiary and he served his entire term. At the same time a man sentenced to life for murder, was pardoned after four months.
He has also been asked to send a picture to the large exhibition of American paintings to be held soon at Miami Beach, Flu.

—Sylva Eugenia Davis, the 20-year
paralysis victim who dared
death for a normal life in a rare spinal operation, lay unconscious "in desperate condition" in a respirator in St. Luke's hospital tonight after surgery.
Despite unconsciousness, her condition was regarded as "reasonably satisfactory" by doctors, who expected the present result and who said the four hours "in surgery" would be long for so delicate an operation.
Her doctor, who insisted on anonymity, said he would know within 12 to 24 hours whether the pretty, slender, brown-haired and blue-eyed girl who stalked her life on his behalf was in danger of between death or partial control of her arms and legs, blighted by spastic paralysis since birth.

Miss Hatte Lorio of Louisiana State University started things by a conversation with Baron L. Solymsa, Vas Megye, Hungary, several months ago. The baron said he would like to add specimens of beetles from Louisiana to his collection, and that Prof James M. McArthur's science class at Teachers' College here would welcome an exchange.
Two dozen neatly mounted coleoptera were sent to Misses Merle Foolekler and Mary Grace Lange by the baron, in exchange for their Louisiana specimen. The Hungarian beetles show little difference in color than those of the young. The young women are correspondence with a second beetle collector in India and plan to continue their bug swapping indefinitely.
In a nation-wide broadcast Sunday morning, Freddie Pride and Glenn Cunningham were given most of the time with platebills from Bill Stearn, NBC sports commentator.

lantic City: "Mal Hallett plays a dualeable type of swing that University students will like. I'm sure the band will give students more than their money's worth at the Prom."
"Clean-Cut and Pleading Style"
Clyde Smith, who also was a Steel
Pier visitor during one of Hallett's
engagements there: "Hallett's band
plays one of the most clear-cut and
pleasing styles of swing I have ever
heard. I am certain he will be very
popular at the Prom. He mixes a
lot of good swing with smooth and
sweet music."
Eddie Penchard, who danced to Hallett's music during Christmas holidays in New Orleans: "Hallet followed Johnny Harp in at the Roosevelt hotel in New Orleans and was plenty popular. They were still raving about the band when he left there. He seemed to be liked better than any band which had played there for some time."

Termites Cost Home Owners Millions Yearly
Trey, N. Y.—(UIP) Man- unwittingly adds the growth and spread of wood-boring termites, which cost home owners millions of dollars in damages annually, according to the Honor Headgee of Russell Sage College.
Resembling small white ants, ter-mites bore through beams and foundations of frame buildings, causing collapse or breakage.
Waste humber left along highways and material accumulating in cities provides excellent forage for terraced hills, Heidoe, an expert biologist, said.
She made the discovery through a laboratory study into the diet of termites.
Feast on Rotting Wood
Results of the study proved that termites thrive and multiply rapidly on a diet of well-ratted wood riddled with fungi or mould, such as is found in piles of discarded lumber and untreated fence posts. "Fungus is an essential part of the termite diet," she said. "Slightly to mould found on stale bread, fungi is the beestak of the insects' bill-of-fare. In fungin-free wood termites become shaggy." They resort to cannibalism to an excessive degree.
"Remove waste wood which shows signs of rotting and the attraction to termites is lessened. Virgin wood provides carbohydrates or fuel to run the termite machine, but the proteins necessary for growth."
Proteozon Vital to Life
She found that within the digestive tract of all termites are a number of protozoa. What part the protoconia plays in the life of termites is not known, except that the insects cannot live without them. Miss Hendee believes that the microscopic animals extract from wood some of its food values and convert them into sugars for their parent insects. The termite itself eats the wood but does not digest it.
"In an age in which an ever-increasing use of wood is being made by building industries, dietary studies of wood-loring termites are valuable for prevention measures," he said. The termites often fallen trees for their food supply. Man immensely increases the amount available, improves its quality, distributes it along highways and accumulates it in cities. Consequently, civilization, with its enlarging use of cellulose, tends to increase the moisture wood in home building locations probably would reduce appreciably the annual damage tell from these insects."
