In this day and apre, as I like to call it, everybody should know
something about science. Unfortunately, however, the preat majority
of us are majoring in elocution, and we do not fret a chapce to takn
any science. But we can at least learn the fundamentals.
Though this column is intndedta be a source of innocent merriment 'for all sexes and not to concern itself with weighty matter,
I hayemsked the makers of Philip Morris whether I mifrht not from
time to time use this space for a short lesson in science. "Makers,"
I said to them, "might I not from time to time use this space for a
short lesson in science?".
"Illess you, lad I" cried the makers., chuckling. "You may certainly use this space from time, to time for a short lesson in science."
They are very benign men, the makers, fond of children, small
animals, community singing, and simple country food. Their benevolence is due in no small measure to the cigarettes they smoke, for
Philip Moths is a cigarette to soothe the most savage of breasts. I

(Now this, I submit, is just plain cloppiness. The most cursory
investigation would have shown Mr. Webster that horses are
mammals. Mammals give milk. Horses do not give milk. It has to b
taken from them under the most evere duress.
(Nor is the horse a draft animal, as Mr. Webster says. Man is a
draft animal. Mr. Webster obviously had the cavalry in mind, but
even in the cavalry it is men who are drafted. Horses volunteer.)

But I digress. We were discussing chemistry. I have told you tha
most important aspects, but there are many more far too many
to cover in the Kpace remaining here. However, I am sure that there
is a fine chemistry lab at your very own college. Why don't you go up
some afternoon and poke around? Make a kind of fun day out of it.
Bring ukele'es. Wear funny hats. Toast frankfurters on the Hun sen

The greatest internal threat to the Republic of the United States this year and in
years to come does not lie in the goals of
communism. Instead, this menace is found '
in the unjustified fear, ignorance, and stupidity of a small, but growing, handful of
American citizens who are mortally, afraid
of something they don't understand.
As 1954 became part of history, we
checked the news dispatches of December
31st. That the fear was present in all parts
of the nation was' undeniable. There was no
doubt that its roots burrowed deep into misunderstanding and, in some cases, outright
ignorance.
