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.

wide-open mouths and a mus

$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.

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."
