Did you know that most of the big cities had a speed limit for horse-drawn vehicles before the advent of the automobile? Police- men were ordered to give out tickets to any driver caught "run- ning his horse." President Grant was arrested in Washington, D. C.. for racing a team of horses through the city and find 320.

it is of passing interest to note that only under the Georges did wheat become the staple diet in England. Prior to this,

ropean countries. pure bread had been regarded as luxury only sons of means.

Here are a few recipes nightmares. and the like:

A heavy' meal of meat before bedtime is good for a full hour show of headless people,

For a genuine family spectre, carrying out the closet skeletons, of the family tree. mince pie washed down with very strong tea or coffee, taken immediately be- fore retiring.

For flying saucers and the lit- tle men that steer them, one gen- erous siicc of fruit cake (grand- mother's style) plus six cigarettes just before retiring.

But should you prefer ghosts and fearsome hags then by all means eat a big lobster salad right after midnight.

Did you know that beneath the base of Cleopatra's needle lies buried a lot of things to give men of the future an idea of us and our times?

The burial of these items took place in 1878 and tlie'list contains a man's lounge suit, the complete dress and vanities of a lady of fashion, illustrated papers, bibles in many languages, kids toys, a razor, cigars and cigarettes. photographs of the most beautiful women of Victorian England, and a complete set of coins from a farthing to five pounds; so the old monument that came from Egypt to stand guard ovcr London, hides this treasure trove for future gen- erations to gloat over when this present civilization will have pas- sed away.

While the Soviet newspapers were screaming in big headlines about ltcapitaiistic flying saucers" Great Britain's war office put on its long visioned specks last Nov- ember. For the first time it gave out an official report on those queer flying objects that every- body was talking about from one end of the world to the other.

Fl.A.F. Flying Officers S. Smith and T. Johnson were up in .1 Vampire JET. 20,000 feet on Nov. 3rd when they saw an object zooming through space at a terri- fic spced and high above their jct. They reported the object was

circular and emitted a strong light.

Smith and Johnson reported their flying saucer immediately

and meanwhile the war office had other rcports of strange sky ob- jects. One of those reports came from a testing radar set in South- east London. which picked up a circular white object and lost it again at a height of 43.000 feet.

The war office kept the Infor- mation under its list until Nov ill. when it officially disclosed that
