Shapiro i Co lumbia) has been transplanting teeth with interesting results He experiments with cats because they arc born without teeth, like hu man beings, and because their teeth grow much like human teeth. A developing tooth is removed from a donor cat and placed in the socket of a host cat from which a tooth has been extracted. Four teen cats have been treated in this way. The operation sounds easier than it is; for the transplant is only a few millimeters in diameter in the beginning. All this does not mean that soon you will go to the dentist and have a natural tooth planted in Ihe socket of one I hat had to be removed. Much work must be done before that is pos sible, assuming, of course, thai the same process may be applied to humans. Malaria is one of the oldest known diseases of'mankind.

(internotioil) Spring Is Destructive Time For Forest Fires Forest lires at this time of the year cause more destruc tion to timber than during any other season, declares It E. Caldwell, fire warden for Hay wood county. Many trees will survive a lire that burns part of its branches during the winter, when all its sap is down in the roots.

So far this year there have been seven fires on the wood lands of Haywood, a few of which were small, but togeth er have done "considerable damage" to our natural re sources. Two of the fires were in the Dix Creek section of Pigeon, Feb. 3-4; the next occurred Feb. 11 in the Shallow Cliff Belk RE MEN'S - WOMEN'S - CHILDREN'S $1.00 OFF ALL SHOES $5,95 AND UP STOCK INCLUDES Nationally Adver tised Brands Natural Bridge Wyncbcrg Friedman-Shelby Edgewood Sweet Briar Red Goose Tom Terry DOWNS PLANE area of Crabtiec; two occurred on Hradshaw Mountain, in t'rablree, on March 12 and the last on April 19.
