#1: Our beagle loves hunting. Someone opens the back door for her and she barrels down porch steps into the yard. She runs back and forth on grass vigorously and her nose cruises the wet grass for smells. These are smells of cats, rabbits and other presences which are too subtle for human detection. She sniffs and spins her tail in quick circles. First it spins clockwise then spins counterclockwise. These two activities,sniffing and spinning, always happen together and seem to propel her along.
# The Government Printing Office in Washington D.C., is a source of helpful information. Most people don't know about it. It is the official publishing house for the federal government. The GPO publishes brochures and books on wide amounts of subjects. These subjects range from the dangers of X-rays from home Tv sets to the identification of mushrooms. About 27.000 publications are presented with the Superintendent of Documents. Many of them are inexpensive but there is no price at all for some.
#2: John Jacob Astor reaped America's first fortune. He was a German immigrant,lowborn and uneducated. He made his initial money trading Indian furs. He never learned to speak English properly and carried on his business to the end in an accent. That was redolent of the Hamburg gutters.
