Padget and his State College playmnkers presented a most in teresting program in the school auditorium last Friday night. An extemporaneous play. “The Mountain Snake,” was given by the entire east. The acting of the cast showed much talent. None of the lines of this play were memorized, but they had practiced it a number of times. They then presented two im promptu plays, the plot of which was given to them by Miss Pres lar. The cast was divided and neither knew how the other intend ed to dramatize it. They only took time to assign the characters be fore the curtain arose. It was very amusing to see the different ways the cast developed the same situa tion. The impromptu plays were acted as smoothly as if the lines had been memorized. The State College players have received recognition in the state as the best of their kind. They have been asked to put on a simi lar performance as they gave here at the University of Louisiana where Huey Long has held such a discussion of such acts. We feel that it was a privilege to have them in our school and great y appreciated their coming.

Big Improvement In Auto Engines Engineers long ago discovered that the shape of the chamber in which the gasoline is burned in an automobile engine is of the high est importance. This chamber, known as the combustion chamber, must be so formed that the burn ing gasses have a definite and con trolled process of combustion. Basing his predictions on recent improvements in the handling of fuel Charles B. Bohn, president of the Bohn Aluminum and Brass Corporation declares that “better automobile engines are coming.” “The controlling of the combus tion in a gasoline engine, dealing as it does with tremendously high temperature and great flame velo- Wakelon School Monday—December 17 KEN MAYNARD In “THE TWO-GUN MAN” Also Chapter No. 2 of “THE RED RIDER” In a recent contest for the best book marks made in art classes, prizes were awarded to the follow ing pupils: Frederick Strickland, 7-A; Geo.

SEVENTH B GRADE This past month of November, the seventh B girls got a half holiday for averaging 95 per cent attendance for this month. For the rest of the year we are having an attendance chart. For each week of perfect attendance we receive a star and at the end of the month those with perfect attendance get a half holiday. We are having a Christmas tree for which we are making our own Christmas decorations. We are also making some Christmas cards for our own use. and some of them are very pretty. Mrs. Phillip Massy asked our grade to give a play explaining the Red Cross Christmas seals. We are going to give this play in the grades from the fourth through the seventh.

Engineers have solved the design problem after five years of re search and, as recently announced, have evolved definite combustion chamber forms for every type of automobile engine. As far as the car owner is concerned he will not see any great amount of difference in the exterior of the engine. The benefit he derives will be in the form of money in his pocket be cause of less fuel used and a greater satisfaction with his auto mobile because of the higher pow er, smoothness and consequently better performance. According to present plans most of the 1935 car engines will in corporate the Bohn type of com bustion chamber. It will be utilized in connection with aluminum cyl inder heads which permit higher compressions and thus contribute to better engine power, economy and efficiency. LIVESTOCK POISONED BY ACORNS AND OAK LEAVES The danger of livestock being poisoned by oak leaves and acorns is increased when undernourished animals are permitted to range in the woods, warns Dr. C. D. Grin nells, who is in charge of dairy investigations at State College. Well-nourished cattle seldom eat enough leaves or acorns to cause serious injury, but underfed ani- Infill ristm as I 1 fj H """ 1,1 '■ 1 fj!

Young cattle, especially, are li able to suffer serious digestive di seases when this oak feed becomes a prominent part of their diet. Loss of appetite, decreased, or dis continued rumination, constipation, lowered milk production, and a dis inclination to move are some of the symptoms. It is thought that the tannin, or the substances which produce tan nin, is the poison which affects young, undernourished animals when it is eaten in large quan tities. Some observers are of the opin ion that half-ripe acorns, which fall from the tree before maturing in times of drouth, are more injuri ous than those which have ripened. Animals over three years of age, sheep and hogs are seldom both ered by oak poisoning, although they, too, mny become susceptible if forced to eat too many leaves and acorns.
