GRANGER Page 3 .. The world is full of a number of things, we should all be happy as kings. Ive forgotten who said that, but the trouble is that so many things confuse me that I decided to do a little research for some personal enlightenment. Some of the things I found out were very interesting and Id like to pass them on to you. For instance, Ive always wondered why dumclocks are usually set at 8:18. I found out that my a popular belief is that, the man who first painted a dummy clock had just heard of the assissination of Abraham Lincoln. One version says that 8:18 was the exact time of the shooting and another version has it that it was the exact time of Lincolns death. Actually, Lincoln was shot at 10:10 and died at 7:30 the following morning. This belief is also proved false, inasmuch as dummy clocks with the hands set at 8:18 were hanging in jewelers windows long before Lincoln was president. The real reason that the hands are set where they are is very obvious. Its symmetrical and leaves a great deal of space for advertising. Another thing that has always bothered me is why is there a best man at a wedding. It seems that this custom was started in primitive times when the bride was actually captured by the groom. The groom, naturally, took a friend along to ward of the girls kinsmen as he ran off with his bride to be. I also found out that bridesmaids were origin-ill- y girl friends of the intended bride whose function was to protect the bride against her abductors. Have you ever wondered if the earths water supply were increasing or decreasing? Heres what I found out. Scientists are of the opinion that the water supply on the earth hasnt changed much within historic times. The distribution is constantly changing of course, and therefore, we have floods and droughts that can be disastrous. But the fact remains that the water supply is in the oceans, seas, lake, in the atmosphere, in the land, is in the ice floes of the arctic and anarctic. Actually, much of the water on the earth today is the same water that was on the earth thousands of years ago. The water we drink today may actually contain some of the molecules that composed the bath water of a Pharaoh.

During theSecond World War, squeaky shoes became very fashionable in England. It seems that a poor grade of leather was used and although the shoes were noisy, it was also considered patriotic. Heres one that has bothered me a long time. Is a zebra a light animal with dark stripes or a dark animal with light stripes? Actually, the zebras ground color is a pale yellowish brown and the stripes are either black or dark brown. In case youre interested, a zebra can be trained for riding but with considerable difficulty. Have you ever wondered how you pronounce ye when it is used in ye gold old days, or ye old Coffe Shoppe? Ye is merely the Anglo Saxon or Old English method of write the word the. So the correct pronunciation is the good old days, and the old Coffee Shoppe. lb stand for Why does the abbreviation neither an contains when word the pound pound, 1 or a b? The symbol is a contraction of libra, the Latin word for pound. In case youre interested, the plural of lb should not be formed by adding an s inasmuch as the Latin plural for libra is librae. However, the error of adding an s has been repeated so often that it is now considered proper. What would happen if an irresistible force meets an immovable object? This question presupposes impossible conditions. If a force is irresisitble, it will move any object in its path, or in other words, there can be no mmovable object in respect to an irresistible force. On the other hand, if an object is immovable, no force can move it, which is another way of saying that there is no irresistible force in respect to an immovable object. Since the existence of the two conditions cannot take place at the same time, it is impossible to say what would happen if they did exist. It would be like trying to conceive of two men, each one taller than the other. KEARNS LANES Tested, Tuner W. of rain or snow. Did you ever wonder why some shoes squeak?
