This situation exists because nighttime activity of micro icopic animals and decaying matter have used up much of the oxygen and released car bon dioxide and phosphate, an essential nutrient for plants, Into the water. Acidity Decreases i As the sun comes up there are many animal forms in the water. Green plants start mak ing food, using up the carbon dioxide and phosphate and re leasing oxygen again. The acidity of the water decreases and by three or four in the afternoon, when plant activity is at its peak and animal forms have been reduced, the litmus paper will show a more alkaline reaction. During a year-long study of Mallv phanecs in shallow aauatic habitats - ditches. edges of swamps, streams and nnnris no more than two or ihrpp fppt rieen - Dr. Bam forth also found that the rate and extent of chemical rhnnffps from hour to hour give some indication as to the balance of plant and animal life in the pool.

According to Edith, a trim little woman who dresses sty lishly herself, European gais have firmer figures than their American sisters. "Maybe it's because they walk more and exercise more frequently," she said. "Another thing, women over there wear more under garments. This is probably because the climate is colder. Even then, their undies are fancy with plenty of lace." Though Edith is well vers ed on unmentionables, she is concerned only with outer garments when it comes to business.
