If your longhand resembles the honorable Mississippi River don't get (1 couraged and throw down the qu ll. Remember that many of Shakespeare's words and phrases have never been definitely deciph- ered. Hawthorne. too. was a no- torious scribbler. and to this day some 01 his stories remain unpub- lished because not even the angel, Gabriel. could make out his writ- ing. so illegible was James Joyce that. when his manuscript of Ulysses was discovered in the mail by a London censor during World War I, the curious longhand aroused suspicion.

Britain's best code experts work- ed for days on the script. believ- ing it was a secret code. When they learned it was a novel. they almost stopped dead in their tracks. And. believe it or not, a few of Napoleon's letters were mistaken for maps of battle fields Maybe that's why typewriterswere invented. Today many editors pass up scripts written by hand.

There are-no beds in Japanese houses. The family sleep on the floor on padded mats. The walls run in grooves and can be pushed back to let in cool breezes or to make the room larger.

For its size, Burma has more religious monuments than any other country in the world. The marriage ceremony is a simple at- fair. The couple join hands. say they intend to live. together as man and wife. and cat rice togeth- er. That's all there is to it. except that the husband must be expect- ed to work for a time for his wife's people before setting up house for himself.

housewives devote more hours to their homemaking duties than do farmers wives? A recent survey

Just in case you don't happen to know Downing Street. London. was named after a native Ameri- can. George Downing. who lived in England during the time when Oliver Cromwell ruled the Moths Country. Cromwell took a fancy to the man and made him resi- dent minister at The Hague. Later he became t y of the Treas- ury. He died in England in 1884. Incidentally. No. l0 Downing used to be owned by an American who was born in Massachusetts in 1624.

one of the dark chapters in the British Navy. in Nelson's time and, indeed, for many years later, was flogging, a recognized punishment, yet an ugly business. For some infringements of discipline, a sail- or could be sentenced by the cap- tain to be flogged round the fleet. an ordeal so brutal as to frequent-

ly cause the death of the prisoner. T0 he fiasied round the fleet meant that the victim should re-

.ce1va as many lashes on his back

as there were ships in the fleet. For example. if he was sentenced to 300 lashes. and the fleet con- elsf.ed of fifteen ships, the unfor- tunate sailor would receive 20 lashesi alongside each vessel. Think of it

Another atrocious piece of bar- barism of the old-time Navy was the system of imp:-essmentwthat E. taking by force land lubbers to serve aboard ship. The impressed men were brought before the cap- tain and asked whether they would serve in the King's Navy? It they protested. they were beaten and marched off to perform the most menial tasks around the ship.

Life at sea in the fo'c'slc a cen- tury ago was too horrible to" set down in print. When Charles Dickens crossed to this continent

in the 40's he had to put up with

accommodations that nowadays a Ifeerago passenger would not tol- erete.
