A TALE OF THE SEA Sailors’ yarn8 are generally a musing and interesting, even if many of them are not gospel truth. We just ran across an old one from the log of Henry Hudson’s ship when that famed explorer was trying to find the long-sought “northwest passage to China” in 1608. For vivid imagination it is hard to beat. It tells of sighting a “mermaid” in the following record, dated June 15, in latitude 75 degrees 7 min utes north: “One of our company looking over board saw a mermaid and, calling up some of the company to see her, one more came up and by that time she was come close to the ship’s side, looking earnest ly on the men. A little after, a sea came up and over-turned her; from the waiste upwards her back and breasts were lyke a woman’s, her body being as big as one of us; her skin was very whyte, and her hair hanging down behind being of colour blacke; in her going downe, they saw her tayle, which vas lyke the tayle of a porposse and speckled lyke a macrell. Their names that saw her were Thomas Hitler and Robert Rayner.” Like many other myths and superstitions this yarn was for a long time believed by thousands. Stories equally foolish are believed to this day. Ask That Parents Immunize Children. Against Diptheria In 1922, diptheria caused 508 deaths out of 8,138 cases, and in 1932 it was the cause of 150 deaths from 1,895 cases, the State Hoard of Health advises in its plea to parents to have their children im munized and thus help to eradi cate this disease from which 75 per cent of the deaths are of child ren under five years of age. Most of the deaths occur in early fall, and a campaign is being waged thi8 summer to get parents to have children between ages of six and nine months immunized before the fall. The advise is to take the child to the health department or fam ily physician as early as possible. ‘Take no chances; you might lose”, is the warning. After convicting a man in Pon tiac, Mich., of stealing apples, the jurors ate several pies introduced as evidence.
