Nickel, Five Cents,
Has 75th Birthday
The American nickel or five-cent
piece, which is now rounding out its
75th year of circulation, is the most
used of all coins in the United States.
Since first being minted, there have
been placed in circulation two billion
nickels; during the past fiscal year
180,000,000 new Jefferson nickels
made their appearance. The usual life
of a five cent piece is ten years. The
i 1913 Liberty nickel is extremely rare
and very valuable. The nickel is the
only modern American coin which
does not carry the words “In God We
Trust.”

WILD FLOWERS ON HIGHWAYS
TO BE PROTECTED
AUSTIN, April 12—The Highway
Department Saturday issued a warn-
ing to motorists and tourists that
state law prohibits the picking or
damaging of wild flowers or shrubs
along the Texas highways.
“The department has received sev-
eral complaints recently,” E. J. Amey,
administrative assistant to the com-
mission, said, “particularly from East
Texas, in which motorists were re-
ported to be damaging dogwood and
redbud trees which constitute one of
the state’s finest natural attractions.”
Amey said that the complaints were
being referred to the highway patrol.
The law provides a fine of from $1
to $10 for picking or damaging wild
flowers and shrubs along the high-
ways.

New-Type Carrier
Is Hope For Britain
The Navy’s experiment in convert-
ing a standard cargo vessel into an
aircraft carier was viewed by obser-
vers as a possible future boon to
Britain’s raid-menaced shipping. The
converted aircraft carrier could sail
the convoy, it would carry about
30 fighter planes which could take
turn scouting for German submarines
which desire to attack the convoy or
looking for German bombers attempt-
ing to sink the ships from above.
Some such solution must come or too
much shipping will go to the bottom.
Britain Can Damage
German Oil Supply
As long as Britain has a base on the
Balkans, they are a menace to the
German oil supply in Rumania. If the
Greeks and Yugoslavia, by some
miracle, could hold out against the
superior equipped Hitler Army, then
Britain in time could practically para-
lyze the mechanized forces of the
enemy by destroying the oil supply
which must pass primarily through
the Balkans. However, if Hitler moves
on swiftly, he is likely to not only
safeguard his Rumanian oil fields,
but take over England’s valuable
fields in Iraq.
Colds Cause Largest
U. S. Economic Loss
Colds and flu have been noted as
the source of more lowered physical
efficiency and greater economic loss
than any other illnesses on the Ameri-
can medical books, according to sta-
tistics compiled by the Gallup Poll.
About 59,000,000 working days were
lost last year from the ill effects of
the above named ailments. Between

MARRIED AT 93, VETERAN DIES
AFTER MONTH’S WEDDED BLISS
AUSTIN, April 7—Death Monday
cut short the marital happiness that
Charles David Clark sought after
ninety-three years as a bachelor.
He had been married only a month.
His bride of March 4 wept Monday
at their room at the Confederate
Veterans’ home and said death came
all to soon.
Clark served in Company A of the
First Virginia Infantry during the
Civil War. As a youth of 16, he took
part in the Confederate assault on
Gettysburg. He had been many places
and seen many things, but women
didn’t interest him.
Then three years ago, Mrs. Eliza
Bryan Turner went to the veterans’
home with her husband. Clark had
been there since 1931.
The three became fast friends. Tur-
ner died in 1940. Clark’s courtship
began.
The other old persons at the home
gave the newlyweds a fine party, fea-
turing an enormous wedding cake and
a hope chest for Mrs. Clark. They
settled down at the home in what was
a new role for Clark. He said he liked
it after a lifetime of sewing his own
buttons, and that he hoped to live to
be 100.
Monday he had a heart attack.
