Believe White Animals Lakeview — Approximately 484 Should Be Held Sacred acres of bison seed flax are being Among many primitive peoples white animals of various sorts, al binos and otherwise, have been en dowed with supernatural virtues. The animal selected for this rever ence is usually one closely associat ed with the life of the people, like the elephant in Buddhist countries. The ordinary bison was the plains Indians’ source of livelihood. It pro vided him with food, clothing and utensils and with the hides for mak ing tents, recalls a writer In the Chicago Daily News. Long before the Indians had guns and horses, they killed the bison by driving them into pens, or over the brink of high embankments. Ac cording to a story collected from among the Atsina Indians of Fort Belknap, the meat and hides of a herd thus taken was not touched if a white bison were found in the herd unless there was great scarcity of meat in the Indian camp. Among the Atsina a white bison which was killed in a buffalo drive was skinned and the hide turned over to the keeper of the Turtle Pipe, a pipe which was said to possess great supernatural power. Among the Teton Sioux the white bison was bielieved to have taken the form, according to their leg ends, of a beautiful woman, who has a benevolent and powerful spirit. References by early explorers to the white bison are few and widely scattered. It is believed that Juan Onate, who explored east Texas in 1601, is the first white man to make mention of the white bison. Onate, in mentioning the herds of bison he saw in the country, says that “all these cattle are of one color—name ly, brown—and it was a great mar vel to see a white bull in such a multitude.’’ Ceylon Once Residence O f Ousted A d a m and Eve It the Mohammedans were right, Adam and Eve, after their expulsion from Eden, were transported to Cey lon. Not only did our First Parents visit Ceylon but Adam also became a pearl fisherman there, tradition states. Adam’s peak was named for him, notes a writer in the Los Angeles Times. Ceylon is usually described as the garden spot of the earth. Half the size of England, it is shaped like the pearls found in its oysters. This land of opalescent light and deep forests, of high mountains and great valleys, holds a high place in legend and story, for it has been an island of mighty kings. Anuradhapura, which dates from 400 B. C., was the capital of the en tire island more than 1,500 years. Colombo, the capital and main port of Ceylon, is a city where ev erything is of the most radiant color. The houses are white, the earth is red, the sky is blue. Palms wave green fronds in all directions, while on every side flowers bloom In a vast variety of bright hues. The city is frequently called a dream of tropical splendor. Singhalese women are slender, shapely and erect in carriage. Some resemble bronze statues and look as if they had just stepped off pedes tals in an art collection. Their fea tures are more refined than those of their Malay sisters. Flour Named for Lecturer Graham flour, which takes its name from Sylvester Graham, an American lecturer on temperance and food reform, is unsifted or un bolted wheat flour; that is, flour in which all the wheat kernel except the husk is used. Sylvester Graham was born at Suffield, Conn., in 1794, and died at Northampton, Mass., September 11, 1851. After studying at Amherst for a time he entered the Presbyterian ministry in 1826. As part of his temperance and food campaign, he not only advocated total abstinence from meat but also recommended the eating of bread made of unbolted wheat flour be cause of its great nutritive value. Graham, however, was not the "in ventor” nor the "introducer” of this kind of bread, for whole wheat bread was the first wheat bread made. His name became associat ed with it because he included this article of food in his dietary regi men. grown in Lake county this season by 16 farmers, according to a sum mary compiled by Vic Johnson, county agent. William Pfrang, who has 40 acre« on his farm north of Lakeview, reports that late spring frost which damaged certain grain crops apparently left the flax un hurt. Other farmers also report that the crop appeare to be very frost resistant.

Hmiitii Not Buried in Standing Position The former premier of France, Georges Clemenceau, said in his will: “Let me be carried in the silence of daybreak to my Vendeean forest and there beside the coffin of my father let mine be placed up right as his was. Even in death I wish to remain standing.” As far as possible his wishes were carried out. The funeral cortege traveled by vehicle the 250 miles from Paris to Vendee. The coffin, however, was placed horizontally as it was found that there was a solid rock formation which prevented an up right position.
