Ont grandfathers used to say,
"There’s nothing new under
the sun,*' and believed It. B".t in
thts modern generation, we have
discovered that there are a great
ni: nv new things under the sun.
Even in our cooking, we are con
stantly inventing new dishes such
as our ancestors never dreamed of.
And many of them are improve
ments over most of the things
our ancestors ate. What could be
better, for example, than a chilled
fruit soup on a sultry evening?
Here are a few recipes:
For Hot Days
lerd Mint Fruit Soup : Smooth
one teaspoon arrowroot to a paste
with a part of two cups cold water,
then add to one-half of a No. 2

Fine Fruit Candies
IS there anyone anywhere who
doesn’t prick up his ears at the
words homemade candies, espe
cially when they are made from
pure sweet fruit? Children love
them, because they are so good,
mothers approve of them because
they are wholesome. As for
fathers—they like them because it
is the best candy they’ve tasted
since the old maple sugar days
down on the farm.
Peach Jelly Cubes: Press an
eight-ounce can of peaches through
a sieve, making a pur£e. Add one
half cup pectin syrup (made ac
cording to directions on bottle),
one-half cup sugar, one-half cup
corn syrup, and one tablespoon
lemon juice. Boil until thermom
eter registers 222 degrees. Pour
into greased pans so that mixture
is about one-half inch thick, and

days on the farm. And they are
ri Bht, for there’s nothing quite so
good as a dessert of rich juicy
Peaches. You’ll find ’it easy to

Vacations For Horses Is Soviet Farm
Plan
• Samara, U. S. S. R.—Horses, like
human workers in Soviet Russia, are
to be given regular days of rest from
their arduous duties in social recon
struction.
A recent official inspection reveal
ed that the horses on collective farms
were receiving inadequate care and
rest.
Therefore it was decreed that each
draft animal was to have a vacation
of seven or eight days, the rest peri
ods being spaced so that 10 to 15 per
cent of the horses would always be
on leave.

Phonograph Play* In Cemetery Vault
If Button I* Pushed
Washington.—lf the visitor to
Rock Creek Cemetery herd detects
strains of music proceeding from the
family vault of W. B. Hibbs, a brok
er, he need have no fear of ghosts.
It is not one of Mr. Hibbs’ ancestors
crooning “Indian Love Call,” but an
automatic phonograph with a dum
my rose window for a loud speaker.
Mr. Hibbs built his family “pyra
mid” at a cost of $65,000, but when
it was about finished, there seemed
to be something lacking.
Music—that was it! So Mr. Hibbs,
with whom money was no object, had
a music box installed in the tower,
with amplifiers concealed behind the
rose window. Now the passerby,
weary of reading inscriptions, may
open a little door, push a little but
ton, and listen for thirty minutes to
whatever music Mr. Hibbs sees fit to
provide. One record, it is certain, is
“Indian Love Call.”
Married 65 Year*, Clark* Recall
Early Hardship* in Kansas
Chicago,—Folks who talk hard
times should be ashamed of them
selves, in the opinion of Rosell M.
Clark and his wife, Alzina, who have
been married for sixty-five years.
Reminiscing Monday as they pre
pared to celebrate their wedding an
niversary next Thursday the couple
recalled these facts:
When they were married after
Clark was mustered out of the Union
Army in the Civil War and followed
the old Santa Fe Trail to McPherson,
Kan., they didn’t find any kitchen
ette apartment awaiting them.
While not engaged in fighting In
dians they built a house out of dirt,
supported by three branches.
The grain they planted was blown
away by a Kansas gale.
When a crop was ready for harv
est grasshoppers or prairie fires de
stroyed it.
You can’t talk hard times to the
Clarks. They won’t listen.

The young man vending the water

brown trousers and driving a Ford
coupe with a Virginia license tag.”
Authorities said he would be liable,
if arrested, to indictment for obtain

PROTECTING COTTON HOLDS
PROFITS
Athens, Ga. Georgia farmers
who are storing cotton, or consider
ing storing cotton, at hmu - in
warehouses, will find it profitable to
protect the lint against weather dam
age, states C. G. Garner, Extension
economist in co-operative marketing
at the Georgia State College of Ag
riculture.
Tests made at Jefferson, by the
United States Department of Agri
culture, show the following seasonal
losses through various methods of
storing:
Per cent loss in cotton warehouse,
t per cent; on poles, so as not to
touch the ground and uncovered,
turned after each rain, 4 per cent;
on poles, and covered with tarpaulin,
2 per cent; flat on ground uncover
ed and unturned, 55 per cent; end on
ground, uncovered and unturned, 23
per cent; edge on ground, uncovered
and unturned, 22 per cent; edge on
ground, uncovered, but turned each
week, and after each rain, 23 per
cent. From 22 per cent, or about
$5.50 to 55 per cent, or about $14.-
00, loss per bale by weather damage
is a high price for improperly stored
cotton.
BLAMES RUM AND DEPRESSION
FOR DIVORCE INCREASE
Atlanta.—Whisky and depression
were blamed Saturday by Judge E.
D, Thomas for the huge increase in
the number of divorces granted by
the Fulton superior court.
Having presided over the uncon
tested divorce court last week, which
granted 338 petitions, a figure close
to the record, Judge Thomas de
clared he had seen some distinctive
trends in the matter of divorce dur
ing the last two years.
Not so long ago, he said, the pre
vailing cause of divorce was too
hasty marriages. Many young peo
ple rushed into marriage without
realizing its responsibilities and met
disaster that brought them into the
divorce courts.
Now more than 90 per cent of the
divorces are based on complaints of
whisky drinking leading to cruel
treatment, he said.
On last Monday, the first of the
divorce court session, 90 per cent of
the women who took the witness
stand testified that their husbands
were habitual drunkards, Judge
Thomas said.
Judge Thomas declared that eco
nomic conditions probably caused
more men to drink. Without a job
they turned to liquor as a convenient
means of forgetting their troubles,
and after getting intoxicated, were
cruel to their wives.
