The Celts established settlements in Austria according to a recent report issued by the United Nations Educational, scientific and Cultural Organization. one of the oldest Celtic settlements discovered is located in the region of Madalens- berg in the province of Corinthia.

A primitive Christian church dat-.,

ing from 1226 has been unearthed by an Austrian archeologiat dis- ging at the site.

Today everybody thing about dinosaurs. But less than 40 years ago .the banks of the Red Deer River in Central Alberta produced an amazing number of skeletons of those huge oeasis.

An Ontario gardener was re- aponsible for the 'idea of setting up ti place cairn on the border be- tween Canada and the U. S. A. and

between North Dakota and Mani-l

toba. In the third year aitiv the inception of the idea. nearly 50,000 persons met to dedicate the cairn built of stones from both sides of the border and to repeat the vow imprinted thereon:

“To GOD IN HIS GLORY"

We the two nations dedicate this garden and pledge ourselves that as long as men shall live we will not take up an-na against one an- other.

Unlike htimans the robin ainga his cares away. He sings in the morning! He rings at the close of day!

When he has finished his daily work. when he has flown his last flight for the day. when he has pl(‘l(8rl up his last morsel of food for the evening -— then on a top- most twig, he sits relaxed and sings his songs of praise. Wouldn't it be a fine thing if we could emulate the robin: and sing our cares away too?

Martin Luther spent the first two hours of everyday in prayer. insisting that he could not succeed in the taska of the day unless he made the devotional start.

More energy is wasted. more vital essence is tht‘D\\'r‘i away through fear than through any other cause. Sooner or later a little fear may get in and clog up our mental machine. If allowed to remain, in time it becomes a big fear and eventually fear controls our lives.

The world we live in is vibrating with the {car of a third world war. or fear of another period of unem- plnyrnent and hunger. Therefore it is plain to see how easy it is for us to fall into discordant and fear- ful vibrations that whirl arotind us and keep us annoyed. In a sense

But let us re- lmember that there is a stabilizing lforce in the universe when contact- 'ed and understood which will lead 'all men and all nations out of their lfeara. | on March 25, 1940. residents of [Dayton Ohio were drenched to the {skin by a green rain that discolor- led clothing, and left a greenish tint .on all the white-painted houses.

some believed the rain might be due to chlorophyll, others to a mix- ture of green pollen and algae. whcih had somehow found its way to the clouds.

This strange case has never been satisfactory explained.

And in March of 1879 a shower of mild fell on a passenger train as it roared through Nevada. east of Iron point. It completely coated the engine and cars which looked as if they'd been dragged through a mud hole. Scientists investigat- ing this phenomena discovered that fine particles of alkali dust had been carried up in the rafnclouda and it heavy fall of rain had brought them to earth as mild.

According to a story in the Los Angeles Expresa a shower of rocks fell on that California city on 1874.

No one yet knows the explana- tions for this mystery.
