SMARTNESS HERE
PATTERN 8178
ButtoriH emphasize every smart de-
tail of this unusual dress with such
slender lines. See the way they fol-
low the surplice from the right shoul-
der, close it at the side, and strut
half the way up the forearm of the
sleeve.- Tiny vertical tucks are used
to mold the waistline at the back,
giving extra ease to the bodice.
Then, too, stitched seaming down the
front of the skirt seems to take away
inches from the hips. The Irregular
neckline is softened by a most be-
coming scarf. This design would be
charming In black satin with a scarf
of the queerly named, but very love-
—color, or metal cloth.

THIS WEEK
A Pretty Good Christmas
Germs Travel High
We Are Coughing Better
Prairie Dogs, Catacombs
It was a satisfactory Christmas, the
best since the depression began. The
nation at least knows that the depres-
sion is here and that attending to it,
instead of talking about things "just
•round the corner," is the program.
The government knows that money
was made to be spent in emergencies
and that helping the people is cheaper
than revolution. The government is
spending and helping.
Colonel Lindbergh proves, after
transatlantic flights, that bacteria can
travel across the ocean by air. The
winds of the north Atlantic carry
microscopic germs of life through the
upper air. Disease germs might trav-
el, thus, across either ocean.
That Interests anybody planning to
make war more Interesting by adding
disease germs to poison gas and high
explosives.
Scientists already believed that,
since life cannot be created on the
earth, except supernaturally, life be-
gan on this planet probably with
germs that had traveled millions, per-
haps billions, of miles through space
at absolute zero. They started life on
the earth when It had sufficiently
cooled off, and may have been brought
in the wake of flying meteors.
Heat destroys microscopic life, cold
does not.
Cheerful optimists, telling you that
conditions are getting better, remind
you of Meyer Hecht's benevolent friend
who told each tuberculosis patient,
"You are coughing better this morn-
ing."
We all are "coughing" a little bet-
ter. It has been the best, most free-
ly spending Christmas season since the
depression began. Merchants testify
to that. The season of grand opera
opened in New York with every seat
sold and a demand for seats nonexist-
ent.
Mr. Hull, able secretary of state,
wants freer trade with foreign coun-
tries. Those^that shut their markets
to the outside world are like "animals
which burrow in the ground," says Mr.
HulL That might be true, without
proving tlut protection is unwise.
Anita's -ourrowing in the ground—
prairie dogs, etc.—would regret it If
they came to the surface and sat
around Inviting coyotes to eat them.
Early Christians burrowing in the
catacombs were better off than they
would have b»-en on the surface,
thrown to the iions.
It is better for this country to bur-
row under protection than be thrown
to the lions of free competition of la-
bor and manufacturing.
Occasionally you hear what Mr.
Field called "a sour note" in the hope-
ful chorus of "Happy Days Are Here
Again." Senator Dickinson of
Republican, of course—says NRA
plans have collapsed. , finds that
"monopoly" is being ,uraged, pri-
vate initiative is being depressed and
the small business man driven to the
wall—"The rich are becoming richer
and the poor poorer."
That will be news for some of the
rich—they had not heard it. You may
hear many of them say now, "If I can
get together and keep enough to take
care of my family, that is all I ask,"
and they mean it.
Projects thus far proposed by con-
gressmen and executives in Washing-
ton would cost Uncle Sam, In addition
to money already spent, $30,000,000,000,
and would double the national debt If
the money were wisely created, wisely
spent, the country would be better off.

KEEP RECORDS OF
FLOCK IS ADVISED
Best Way to Ascertain the
Weak Points.
Sy Roy g. Dearstyne, Head of North Caro-
lina State College Poultry Department
WNU Service.
Poultrymen who keep records of
their flocks will stand a better chance
of making a profit in spite of high feed
prices. With a well-kept record, the
poultryman can find the weak points
In ills flock management when profits
are low and thus determine what to do
to remedy the situation.
It does not pay to save money by dol-
ing out small quantities of feed to the
birds. Such practices will lower egg
production, impair the vitality of the
birds, and increase the mortality rate.
True, it is good policy to provide win-
ter grazing in order to cut down on
feed costs, but this is advisable be-
cause winter grazing is beneficial. Non-
beneficial feeds should not be substi-
tuted for the higher priced feeds.
The extension service at State col-
lege is offering a complete system of
record-keeping free to all poultrymen
within the state. Record books will
be sent to those who wish them. The
books contain sheets in which month-
by-month records can be kept.
If the poultrymen will send these
sheets back to the college each month,
poultry specialists will be glad to figure
for them the following data: feed cost
per dozen eggs, feed cost per bird,
value of eggs produced, return above
feed cost, mash and grain consumed,
and other valuable pointers.
The record book also contains incu-
bation and brooding record forms and
an egg record sheet which should be
of great advantage to the poultrymen.
Liberal Hopper Space
Favored by Poultrymen
To be successful with poultry the
flock owner must pay close atten-
tion to details. Many farmers fail to
obtain eggs during the winter either
because their mash feeders are too
small or because of failure to refill
the feeders promptly when the supply
has been exhausted. The mash feed-
ers, says the Missouri Farmer, should
be large enough to furnish one foot
of feeding space for every five or six
hens. Hens will eat mash more rap-
idly if the feeders are located in a well
lighted portion of the house near
enough to the floor to be easily acces-
sible. However, it is not desirable to
place the feeders less than 16 to 18
inches from the floor. Otherwise litter
and dirt is likely to be kicked into the
feed boxes by hens scratching on the
floor.
Many poultrymen seem to doubt the
advisability of feeding grain in troughs
and continue to scatter grain in the
litter to induce exercise. From the
sanitary point of view it is obviously
much better to feed grain in troughs.
If ample feeding space Is provided
so that all the hens can eat at one
time they can get their fill of feed
much more quickly at roosting time
than when they are compelled to search
for the grain by scratching in the
litter.
Drafts Cause Discomfort
The average farm flock suffers from
too much ventilation in cold weather,
says a poultryman. Drafts cause the
fowls serious discomfort Sudden
changes in temperature are harmful
to laying hens and may reduce egg pro-
duction considerably. Ventilation may
be controlled by using a straw
loft or installing a commercial or
homemade ventilative system, or by
careful regulation of window openings.
Insulation and ventilation go hand In
hand. A variety of good commercial
Insulating materials is sold by lumber
dealers.

The United States bureau of agricul-

1925.

The storing room should be kept free
from musty odors and highly flavored
foods because eggs absorb odors read-
ily.

Progressive poultrymen should count
their laying hens each month In order
to detect losses which might have been
overlooked.

AZTEC MONARCH
PIONEER IN THE
ART OF GLIDING
mm
Constantly they are discovering
new things about the ancient Aztecs.
Just the other day it was learned by
student research that the early In-
habitants of Mexico had invented a
very modernized form of football;
but even later comes, via Madrid,
news of the Aztecs some five hun-
dred years ago.
Discovery of this extraordinary
fact was made by a Polish archeolo-
gist while delving into ancient rec-
ords of the Franciscan missionaries.
The Pole, Tenenbaum by name, had
spent nine years in research in Mex-
ico and, among the monkish docu-
ments there, found a description of
what might be called an aviation
school conducted five centuries ago
by King Netza. Bird worship exist-
ed in Mexico as well as in Guatemala
and also in the Mayan regions of
Yucatan. An interest in flight quite
naturally followed and flight, in the
native thoughts, connoted feathered
wings.
Unable to create power artificially.
King Netza and his assistants fell
back upon wind power in combina-
tion with gravitation. According to
the Franciscan manuscripts, Netza
insisted that his people should be-
come more like their feathered gods
so he began equipping them, and
himself, with widespreading wings
fabricated from storks' feathers. And
the monarch, personally showing th»
way, "used to glide from the heights
of the mountains into the deep val-
leys."
An engraved stone, said to have
been discovered by Professor Tene-
baum himself, shows the gliders In
action and, most striking fact of all,
the Aztec aviators are seen wearing
goggles "not greatly unlike those
worn today." Professor Tenenbaum
recently exhibited bis proofs to a.
scientific body in Madrid, but no
doubt further research will follow
this opening lead.—New Orleans
