The New Field of Television
PROGRESS of television research
is bringing nearer day by day the
time when television will enter the
home to rank with radio as a great
scientific achievement that contrib
utes to making life more pleasant
and interesting for all of us. In step
with the progress of research the
need is increasing for men who can
qualify as experts in this new field.
Television pictures, comparable
in quality and detail with home
movies, are already a reality in the
experimental laboratories. Tele
vision is ready for the public so
far as the receiving technique is
concerned. Transmission over short
distances has been achieved. Only
the problem of transmission over
long distances remains and that
problem is approaching solution
through the development of meth
ods that will permit the use of
ultra-high frequency wave bands
that must be employed.
For success in the new profession
of television technical training will
be required. The television expert
will have to possess a thorough
understanding of the principles of
electricity, of radio transmission
and reception, and of the special
problems connected with transmis
^non of ultra high frequency wave
Minds. To that will have to be add
^^d a knowledge of many other fac
tors and of the various types of
television sending and receiving
equipment that are being developed.
The basic principles of radio and
television are similar, and two meth
ods are open to those who wish to
?ualify themselves for the new pro
ession. A course may be taken in
radio engineering at a university,
supplemented by such courses on
television as are offered. If that is
impractical, a beginner’s position in
some technical branch of the radio
industry will provide valuable prac
tical experience, while the necessary
technical knowledge of both radio
and television can be acquired by
hard study during spare time.
Barren Ground*
Tundra is a word of Finnish origin,
and Is now the recognized name of
that huge tract of land which lies
across Eurasia, north of the Arctic
circle, and Is continued into North
America as the ‘ barren grounds."

The Textile Expert
T^HERE is probably no one who
* must be prepared to meet more
new problems than the expert in
textiles. New methods, new designs
and new products come to the fore
as styles chang-e and science makes
possible the utilization of new raw
materials.
Back in the days of our grand
parents no one dreamed of the be
wildering variety of fabrics the
mills of today turn out. No one
knows today what the mills will be
producing five years from now, but
that they will be producing and
looking for new blood and new ideas
to keep themselves abreast of prog
ress is as certain as anything can
be in this uncertain world.
Textile products have been need
ed since the dawn of history and
always will be needed. The industry
is an essential one. The market is
world-wide. Both by reason of the
fact that it is an essential industry,
and because of the constant changes
it must undergo to keep abreast of
the times, it offers a promising field
to the young man about to start out
on his career.
It is, however, a field that requires
technical knowledge in practically
all its branches, from the initial
treatment of the raw material, on
through all the processes of spin
ning, weaving, dyeing and the ap
plication of the design. Chemistry,
engineering and art all play their
parts — and must be applied by
experts. ,
Resident textile schools are lo
cated in various parts of the coun
try, but if it is impractical to
attend one of these schools a be
ginner’s job in a mill can offer ex
cellent schooling provided it is com
bined with study during spare time.
In fact, the textile industry stanas
out as one in* which the positions
of responsibility are largely filled
by men who have risen from the
ranks by using every opportunity to
study the technical side of tneir
work while gaining practical expe-
Heaee in the mills.

Proof Os The Pudding
WE are all familiar with the old
adage, “the proof of the pud
ding lies in the eating.” And in
this connection don’t forget that
many an otharwise good pudding is
proved unworthy by the lack of a
suitable sauce.
Desserts of all kinds containing
fruits should be served with fruit
sauces, with the exception of cus
tards when a highly spiced sauce
may be used. Liquid sauce should
be served with steamed or baked
puddings; and here Is a most de
lectable recipe for such a sauce;
Pineapple Sauce
3 cup* Hawaiian pineapple juice
5 tablespoons granulated sugar
Juice of 1 lemon
2 teaspoons cornstarch
Boil the pineapple Juice with a
piece of lemon rind, and In another
pan melt the sugar to a golden
brown color, then add the pine
apple Juice, and boil for a few min
utes. Dissolve cornstarch with a
little cold water and pour into
sauce to thicken, boil for five min
utes and remove from fire. Add
lemon Juice, then strain. This may
be served hot or cold with puddings
oi- fritters.
In preparing this sauce do not
make the error of using the sweet
syrup in which sliced pineapple is
packed, c The reference is to the
natural, unsweetened Juice of the
luscious sun-ripened Hawaiian fruit
which is now available everywhere
in tins of convenient sizes.
And if you want a man’s idea of
what a good pudding should be,
here is the favorite of Carl Brisson,

What Vocation Shall

The Transmission Engineer
QINCE Thomas A. Edison opened
the first commercial electric
light and power plant in New York
City in 1882 the electrical industry
has moved forward with enormous
strides. Yet the industry is still in
its infancy and the limits of its
progress are not likely to be reached
during the lifetime of anyone living
today.
With work being pushed on huge
power projects that dwarf their
predecessors, and with others equal
ly huge being planned, one of the
most promising fields for the young
man eager to carve out a career lies
in the transmission of electric power
from its source to where it is to be
used. Many of the great projects,
planned or under construction, are
in sparsely settled areas. Their
maximum usefulness depends on
the continued development of meth
ods of transmitting their power to
cities and towns perhaps hundreds
of miles away.
The half-mile transmission lines
of the 1880’s have grown to a
length of 250 to 300 miles. Can they
be increased to still greater
lengths ? Can the load they carry be
increased? Can they carry their
load more economically and with
less loss on the way? These are
some of the questions the transmis
sion engineer must answer, and
those who prove able to answer
them are certain of outstanding suc
cess in their careers.
To qualify as a transmission en
gineer requires technical training.
Many men have obtained their
training at a university, but others
have proved that what can be
learned in laboratory and classroom
can also be learned by combining
practical experience with spare time
study. Any number of successful
transmission engineers can look
back to a beginner’s job in a power
plant supplemented by solitary
study when the day’s work was done.

Handy Pies
A PUMPKIN pie is a mighty
handy thing to have around
during the holidays, even it
you aren’t a movie comedian.
People do other things with pump
kin pies besides plastering them
all over other people's faces, you
know. So here’s a good way to
make a simple
Country Pumpkin Pie: Smooth
one-half cup cottage cheese, or
pass it through a sieve, then mix
with one and a third cups canned
pumpkin. Mix two-thirds cup
sugar with two-thirds teaspoon
salt, two-thirds teaspoon ginger,
two-thirds teaspoon cinnamon and
one-fourth teaspoon nutmeg, and
add with two beaten eggs and one
and a third cups milk. Heat in
a double boiler and pour into a pie
tin lined with pastry. Bake, hav
ing oven hot, 450 degrees, for first
ten minutes, then reducing it to
325 degrees for remaining time,
about thirty minutes or until a
knife inserted comes out clean.
This makes one pie.
Or Else
If you're feeling dressy, you can
doll up a pumpkin pie so that its
country cousin wouldn’t recognize
it on the table. If you feel that
way about it, try this
Pumpkin Pie with Marshmal
lows: Add two-thirds cup sugar,
one fourth cup dark molasses, one
half teaspoon salt, one-half tea
spoon cinnamon and one teaspoon
ginger to two cups canned pump
kin (or half the contents of a No.
3 can). Add two beaten eggs, one
cup milk and one-half cup cream,
and heat in double boiler. Pour
into tin lined with pastry and bake
at 450 degrees for ten minutes,
then at 325 degrees tor thirty
minutes or till set. Cut twelve
marshmallows in halves and lay
over top. lieturn to oven until
marshmallows are browned.
