February 17. 1955 Far East Offers Formula Against Being Frostbitten Tokyo (U.R) If you are afraid you will get frostbitten this winter, you can relax. Here' a special formula from the mysterious Far East. Villagers in Japan are confi dent that if you eat boiled green onions and fried beancurds at the beginning of the cold season, you will avoid frostbite. If you wonder whether you will have good luck this winter, stop wondering. You can find out easily by looking in your tea cup. If the tea leaves "stand "up" in the cup, good days are ahead. 9 These bits of advice are things " a lot of people in Japan still be lieve, according to a recent sur vey. Here are just a few of the superstitions .still going full steam: - If one sews a rice-bran bag on a moonlight night, she will be come very proficient at sewing. Wish Will B. Fulfilled If one makes a wish when one sees a shooting star, that wish will be fulfilled. A family with a consumptive member. would do well to get a pet black cat. A person will lose his or her parents early if wisdom teeth grow. Girls born in a certain year will kill their husbands. (The certain year was not given, so husbands better be on the alert all the time.) An unwed girl who changes her place at a meal is bound to marry more than once. If a pregnant woman sees a fire and presses her hand to any spot on her body, the baby will have a birthmark on the same spot. A pregnant woman who steps over an egg will not have an easy or safe labor. If a pregnant woman does not sew on both sleeves of a kimona on the same day, a deformed child will be born BEAUTY MISSING Search parties are searching country, north of Rome, Italy where z Belgian S a b e n a Airliner crashed with 29 persons aboard, including Italian beauty queen Marcella Mari ani (above) and four Americans.

Who do you say wakes up the . bugler? Do you know how many bugle calls there are? Does an Army bugler use a bu gle or a trumpet? How did the call "Taps" originate? That last query may be too tough for you. "Taps" was originated by Gen. Daniel Butterfield of the Union Army during the war between the States. The general,, a mu sician, didn't care for the "Tat too" call then used to close the Army day. So he taught the bu gler a new melody. That melody is the one now known as "Taps."

The poor animal is staggering. It probably has been called upon to do something it is not truly capable of.
