SCHOOL FOR LOBSTERS
In New York baby lobsters are being trained to dive in one of the Government's hatcheries by running them down an inclined board into the water. This is not for the purpose of giving them a slim and elegant figure, but because they are liable to be eaten by bigger fish during their infancy unless they get quicklyjto the secluded quarters of the sea bottom. Even parrots can now go to the mud baths of Pistany in Czechoslovakia, and grow a new crop of feathers when baldness threatens them; and a rheumatic cat can get rid of the symptoms of incipient arthritis.
