Everybody Yawns Opening the mouth wide, usually with a deep and satis fying inhalation of the breath but without saying a word, is usually what we do when we yawn. And we don't nec essarily have to be sleepy. Men, mice, birds and mon keys as well as all of the higher orders of animals fre quently indulge in the pecul iar "wide mouth opening act" known as yawning. A yawn is said to be invol untary, usually accompanied with the deep inhalation. It is brought about, or started, by drowsiness, weariness or bore dom. Or it may be just because someone else yawned. A yawn could almost be said "to be catching," inasmuch as a yawner is usually imitated by all of us who watch. Shortage of Oxygen Even a temporary shortage of oxygen sometimes triggers a desire to yawn. An uninter esting public speaker or a dull TV program activate a de sire to yawn. Audiences in a movie theater yawn in sym pathy whenever they witness a yawn on the screen. Some times this reminds us we are sleepy, tired or bored. Deep inhaling through our wide-open mouths and a mus cle lengthening stretch of the $40 Billion Defense Budget Approved. Washington - (UPD - A Senate-House conference commit tee approved Friday a 40 bil lion dollar compromise mili tary spending bill which would give President- Eisen hower almost the entire amount he requested for na tional defense. The appropriations bill now goes to the House and Senate for final action. The measure contains $39,228,239,000 for the Pentagon , in the current fiscal year. This was but $19, 961,000 less than the Presi dent proposed in his budget last January. The House originally had allowed $379,900,000 less than the compromise allows: the Senate had voted $366,100,000 more than, the present figure.

Watkins arms over our heads, during the actual yawn, seems to yield a double benefit. Dogs or cats waking from a sound nap stretch their bodies to the fullest, at the same time opening the mouth in a birds yawn before or after-a tooth-revealing yawn. Most nap. The pet canary or para keet yawns frequently. Like the rest of use they benefit from the increased amount of oxygen brought into the lungs by a yawn. The bird often stretches one wing, as well as one or the other leg at the same time the mouth opens, receiving some relaxation by a healthy yawn. This all duplicates, in some measure at least, the same result as the act accom plishes in a human.' Great Benefit It can be presumed that an animal benefits greatly from stretching. The caged jungle cat could almost be said to rejuvenate itself by the. lux urious yawn and stretch, flex ing it muscles at the same time it receives a "fresh charge" of oxygen, by the deep inhala tion of breath which goes along so well with a wide gap ing of the mouth. , With animals, as with hu mans it's not "a question of to yawn or not to yawn," it's something that can't be help ed. We would expect to . see a man, dog, cat or at times the fish in the gold-fish bowl open the mouth and enjoy the re laxing comfort of a yawn but it's somewhat surprising to see, what certainly resembles a yawn, in a tiny, six-legged ant. But strangely enough an aunt waking from a nap actu ally stretches its hair-like legs and opens its mouth wide in what seems to be a pretty life like imitation of a "yawn."
