W«l, I E n g lis h ‘ Hocus P o cus’ A collection of nearly 20,000 books and pamphlets of magic and the supernatural has been installed in the University of London library. One of the books is that published in 1634 and bearing the title, “Hocus Pocus Junior: the Anatomie of Leg erdemain, or the Art of Jugling.” It was the first book of its kind ever published in England. Among other exhibits are pieces of a Coptic pa per dating back to the Sixth cen tury and containing fragments of a potent magical formula; a descrip tion of a seance, believed to have been written by Oliver Goldsmith in 1762; and Ludwig Lavater’s treatise in 1752, “ De Spectris,” what ponderous title reads: “Of ghostes and spirites walkyng by nyght, and of strange noyses, crackes, and sundry warnynges, whiche commonly happen before the death of menne, great slaughters, and alteration of kyngdomes.” Michigan-Texas Hospitality It cost John Halmer of Pontiac, Mich., $700 to prove to a visiting Texan that Michigan boasts hospi tality of a type as good as that of Texas recently. Halmer, standing on the street, was approached by the Texan who complained Michigan people were lacking in hospitality— he couldn’t find any entertainment, poker games and such. As they talked another man came up and asked for a match. Soon the group was enlarged by another bystander and the four rented a hotel room and began playing poker. Halmer said he got four aces, four kings, and four queens among his first hands and had dug deeply into the Texan’s $4,000 bankroll before he be gan to lose. The game ended with Halmer’s savings of $700 gone. Mrs. Halmer said the money was being saved to buy a farm. you au «■ WBI ) I funily oi lour, . ___ •bout $40.00 « month farjood, you »ouid wv< «t k a t $50.00 wmudLy buying .11 your Foods aC$ofcwsy.
