A rural school board was making
its annual visit and the teacher was
‘putting her pupils through their paces.
‘Who signed the Magna Carta?”’
She asked a boy.
“Please, ma’am, ‘twasn’t me,’’ replied the very-nervous.youngster.
The teacher told him to take his
seat, but one member of the board
was not satisfied and said: ‘‘Call that
“poy back. I don’t like his attitude
and I wouldn’t be surprised if ‘he did
‘do it.”

Thousands of persons passing Hotel Manx in San Frahcisco are attracted to a very interesting window
display featuring California’s Guayans Rubber Industry. Samples of this
lrubber and Guayule rubber plants
‘ supplied by Salinas Chamber of
‘Commerce are on display together
iwith window cards explaining var*)jiovs features of the display.
i One window card states that Sac‘'ramento, San Joaquin and Coastal
. Valleys in California have proven
lideal for growing this rubber, and
. 5,000,000 acres, a million
workers, 400 mills with 50 men each
‘would make the United States indej; pendent of foreign supply, would
. make farmers independent and solve
; unemployment.
Another window card states that
the first tire made in the United
States exclusively of Guayule rubber
15 years ago ran 8,000 miles on an
. automobile owned by Dr. Elmer
. Bingaman,
$100,000,000 has been appropria. ted for synthetic rubber experiments
but not. one cent for American guay
ule farmers, $400,000 has been apjropriated for South American experiments but none for home grown
guayule.
