there was opportunity to sweep down
the coast past Calais and Boulogne;
to seize Dunkirk, the last French
j fortress in the north; to take root on

British warships, to threaten England
with invasion as Napoleon had threat

Such were the Germans’, grandiose

the sluices and the water turned the
whole country into a lake, drowning
the invaders in regimnets, repeating

Then the Germans turned eastward

The British flet had saved England

HI STORY IT-TO-DAT E
Oct:. 30, 1485—Henry VII, 29, insti
tuted a body of royal all undents call
ed yoemen of the guard, as he was
crowned at Westminster. Thus was
the British army, the first voluntary
standing army, instituted.
Oct. 30, 1523 —At the hour of vespers
Alvar Nunez Cabcza do Vaca piloted
his shallop into one of the mouths ol
ihe river now known as the Missis
sippi.
‘•This was 13 years before Ferdinand
de Soto, who is erroneously credited
by many historians with having dis
covered Old Man River, stood upon
lower Chickasaw Bluff and got his
first glimpse of the Mississippi.
De Vaca was one of the Company
sent out by the Spanish governor of
Jamaica to find a “city of gold.” They
went ashore in Tampa Bay and
moved overland. Incredible hardships
caused the into build rude boats in
what is now St. Marks harbor and pul
to sea. Cabeza commanded the lend
ing boat. Thus he was first to see
the Mississippi after the three frail
craft had crept along the shore for
30 days.
| Oct. 30, 1922—Benito Juarez Musso
lini, 39, newspaperman and revolu
tionist, formed a Fascist government
in Italy, upon the invitation of the
king whom he had ridiculed in his

doubts this statement.
Actually, the primary colors are
red, violet and green, each of a par
ticular tone-
The mistaken impression concern
ing red, yellow and blue arose through,
color experiments having been made
by mixing pigments instead of mix
ing colored lights, and the fact that
pigment colors are not even approxi
mately monochromatic.
