"Home of the Tenderloin and New York Cut Steaks at $2.50" Meet your friends therel Few Myths Concerning Creatures of Wild Survive Machines, yes, but the pres ent generation will leave to posterity few myths and leg ends concerning the little creatures of the wild which we have had' the privilege of enjoying. But few superstitions can be built up around a machine. Several decades ago, without TV, the motor car or a thou sand other things which we are familiar in this so-called modern world, ' people lived nrettv close to the Held ana the forest, and they noticed the actions of the creatures of the wild, and adjusted their own actions to those of the creatures that lived close to- them. Nature Dlaved an important part in the lives of the folks of early America. Natural phenomena influenced me life of the pioneer, and it was only natural that many myths and superstitions should have been the result. Th actions of birds and animals warned the early pio neers of changing weather conditions. People planted rrnns in accordance with na tural manifestations. Corn was planted (even is today in some sections) when the leaves of the oak tree were the size of a squirrels ear, whsn the same sauif rel work- r.H assiduously to put aside a heavy store of nuts, the peo ple prepared for "a cold win ter.

FLOOR SHOW 'X Small Worlds Around Us By Lynn M. Watkins person started the legend of the hoop-snake; a superstition that has persisted even to this very day. The reptile was sup posed to place its tail in its mouth and roll rapidly along, hoop-like, after its prey. At the. crucial moment the snake straightened its body and struck the intended vic tim with its open mouth. In stances were known where the snake missed its target and imbedded its fangs in a tree. There the sinuous body lashed and twisted until sundown. For some reasons snakes were always expected to wait until sundown to die. 'Glass Snake' They told, too, of the "glass snake," whose brittle flesh shattered into segments with the slightest impact, but which could all be re-connect ed into a complete snake as soon as the danger was past laies of were-wolvcs were used to discipline naughty children several centuries ago, and even persist in some countries today.
