ODD FACTS

In a ton of water from the Atlantic Ocean there are 31 pounds of salt. In the same quantity of water from the Dead Sea there are 187 pounds.


There are firms in Germany producing 10 to 50 tons of carbide per day in order to convert the acetylene into acetic acid and acetone, the latter being intended chiefly for the production of synthetic rubber.


The polar bear is untamable. He is also partial to a sun bath.


The translation of the Bible into English took three years between 1607-1611.


Yokohama, the great Japanese seaport recently destroyed in the earthquake, was until 1854 an unimportant fishing village.


It is said that in twenty-four hours a toad consumes an amount of food equal to four times the capacity of his stomach.


There are some who claim that William H. Taft was put into the presidential chair by a donkey, and this is how it happened. It was Mr. Taft's opportunity to swing a doubtful state into line for him or lose it to the opposition, and he was talking as only Taft can talk. "Who is there," he finally cried, "who will lift a voice against the truth of my statement?" Just then a donkey on the outskirts of the crowd gave vent to one of the piercing hee-haws of his tribe. The laugh was against the speaker for the moment, but Taft was equal to the occasion. Assuming an air of triumph and raising his voice above the din he boomed out: "I knew nobody but a jackass would try it."


A man who was very near-sighted went to have his eyes tested. After asking him to repeat the letters on the test card without success, the specialist grew impatient and left the room.

Five minutes later he returned with the lid from a dustbin. He put it near the near-sighted man and said: "Here, can you see this?"

"Yes," said the man.

"What is it?" asked the specialist.

"Well, it's either a half dollar or a quarter," was the unexpected reply.


Efficient Expert—You are wasting too much time on your personal appearance.

Stenographer—It's not wasted. I've only been here six months and I'm already engaged to the junior partner.
