•wm ou wouldn't an ear ... but how much do you know about MODERN electric cooking? I F you've never seen a demonstra- tion of %he new, 1930 electric ranges, your ideas about electric cooking may be as out of date as the head-set radio. These new electric ranges are fast. Big, powerful burners ^spring into life at the touch on a switch. And they are clean. Automatic, too... the heat control watches over oven meals while you spend the afternoon out. Most important of all, Niagara Hud- son electricity now costs so little that you may enjoy this modern conven- ience for only about a penny a person a meal. NORTHERN NEW YORK UTILITIES, INC. NIAGARA HUDSON Chinese Lenders Split on Educational Plans China, unlike most nations, has nothing that, can really be called a national sport. Japan, In much the same circumstances, adopted baseball; but baseball in China, has never caught on to any great extent. Mis- sion schools and Y. M. C. A.'s, however, have done much to teach forms of sport to elementary and middle school students, with the result that basket- ball, tennis and football are begin- ning to prove fairly popular, but only among an extremely small percentage of the nation's many millions of youths. As far as the revival of folk- lore (which Is being considered by tlie social education department of the ministry of education) Is concerned, it Is expected that the ministry will encounter difficulties. China is rich in folklore, but while with one hand the government is trying to encourage its revival, with the other hand the gov- ernment Is launching a bitter cam- paign against superstition. Much of China's ancient folklore deals with supernatural beings, and with histor- ical and mythical characters endowed with supernatural powers. What is needed, according to educational lead- ers, Is the development of a critical faculty among students and the popu- lace which will enablo them to disas- sociate themselves entirely from the million and one popular myths which form tha basis of their mental tex- ture, If. not of their religious beliefs. Famous English Hotel One of World's Oldest \Ye Olde Grlffln hotel,\ at March, Cambridgeshire, England, one of the best known hotels In the eastern coun- ties, dating back to 1600, has been sold. It was a noted house In the old coaching days, and the coaches at times drove through the space where the front doors are now Into the court-yard at tha back. An offer of $5,000 has been mado and refused for the remarkable paneling In • tlie com- mercial room. The walls of the hall are of Indian carved teak^ and all the ceilings are supported By the original massive oak beams, while the ancient card room Is still in existence. The bath is of real Italian marble, hewn out of the solid stone, and was originally used by the Italian monks, and subsequently brought to England. The hotel has been the subject of articles by Charles Dickens, G. K. Chesterton,' Hilalre Belloc, and others, and is visited by many distinguished people during the season.—Detroit News.

Franklin \Wonder Man\ of Eighteenth Century- Biographers have written about Franklin an American. Professor Pay presents not only the American but also the man of the world—the first bourgeois in tlie world. Search the annals of the' Eighteenth century from beginning to end In every corner of the world; nowhere will you find such a figure. Franklin's accomplishments are simply astounding. He did not live in an age of specialization. He was a master of many trades. He was at once the leading jour- nalist in America, printer and pub- lisher of a far-famed almanac, Inter- nationally know scientist, inventor of •the first wood-burning stove and a \dozen other comfort-giving and use- ful appliances, the best swimmer In America, founder of the first public library In America, founder of the University of Pennsylvania and vari- ous learned societies, diplomat par ex- cellence, master propagandist and pamphleteer, early advocate of world peace, Constitution maker, politician, ,'plillosopher—and a man among men. —Baltimore gun. £arly Horseback Riders Disdained the Saddle Ancient Greeks rode bareback or used a saddlecloth. Even the saddle- cloth does not. appear to have been used until the Fifth century. Xeno- phon says that the saddlecloth had been adopted by the Athenian cavalry, and from his advice as to the seat to be adopted pads, or rolls seem to have been added. There were no stirrups until the time of the Emperor Mau- rice, 002. On a funeral monument of the time of Nero, in the museum at Mainz, is the figure of a horseman on a saddlecloth with something re- sembling the pommel and cantle of a saddle, but the first saddle proper is found in the so-called column of Theo- dosius at Constantinople, usually ascribed to the end of the Fourth cen- tury A. D., though It may be more than 100 years earlier. In medieval times the saddle was much like that of the oriental saddle Of. today. In the military saddle of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth cen- turies the high front parts were ar- mored. The side-saddle Is said to date from the end of the Twelfth century.

Why must you have a secret' from m»j\ He flushed guiltily. \Surely you Can trust me, hon; some day I'll ex- plain it all.\ The clear brown eyes clouded. That age-old line: *'Trust me.\ Her broth- ers had warned her against David Watson, telling her with unpleasant Implications in their voices that mys- teries were usually sinister. Gam- bling was one of the things mentioned. David did not work mornings and that looked odd. \I once read a story about a man of mystery and he turned out to be the town hangman.\ David's laugh rang out at this. \I'm not a hangman, Monica. I don't ask you to marry me Immediately. Just have faith in me for a short time longer.\ \I don't .like it. I think I'll stop seeing you until . . . until . . .\ she paused. She had Intended to tense him Into surrender, but It was nt that moment that she saw the girl. In her mind the word was In capital letters. The girl was audaciously pretty, al- though her dress was shabby and her r glance at Monica's Davjd was tilled with amused recognition. In the brief pause that followed the air seemed tense, mysterious—then with an al- most Imperceptible wave of a thin hand the .girl moved on and. David lifted his hat. \You'd better join your friend,\ said Monica. \I think she wants you,\ and she mingled with the crowd of pedestrians who were waiting for the green light at the. corner. He made no effort to detain her, but his face was sober as he. too. was swallowed up by the hurrying mob of workers and shoppers. .\So glad I met you. dear,\ gushed Monica's sister-in-law, Maud. \I'm on my way to. a litting, and I want you to take Sally up to the playroom here,\ she nodded toward the great depart- ment store before which she had paused. \There's a clown there who has a good line and the children are all mad about him.\ Sally giggled; \He's terribly funny, Aunt Monica. I wish you'd stay awhile and watch him. Heis named •Pierrot.'\ Her aunt turned Into the store and made her way to an ele- vator. \Don't allow Sally to leave the play- room for any reason.\ ordered Monica, tipping the maid in charge. \The clown, the clown,\ came in childish shrieks, and smiling at the uproar Monica left to keep an en- gagement. At 5:20 she rushed back, wondering If her slster-ln-law had-' called foi Sally, whom- Monica had' forgotten. Only ten minutes before closing time I The smell of smoke sent a pang of fenr to her heart. Her way was barred before she had reached the. ele- vators. \Keep back, madam- No cause for alarm.\ repeated the door- man suavely, \the store Is closing.\ \I've got a niece up In the play- room,\ cried Monica wildly pushing at the figure barring her way. \The playroom Is closed. The store Is closing. The smoke Is nothing, merely a—\ He turned aside, his arm firm against her struggles, and nodded to a clerk, who took his place. The elevators had censed running when Monica opened her eyes. The smell of smoke was very strong and the air thick with It. She had been carried to the entrance during hei faint and was sitting on a stool, hei head against a clerk who was dashing water In her face \Want me to put you In a taxi?\ Monica struggled to her feet ano mnde a swift dash past the girl. \I've got to get up there. Sally, little Sally, is there I\ A fireman sprang toward her. \Out lady, there's a fire upstairs I\ The air was filled with cries ano shrieks of sirens as more fire engines sped up. The faces of the outpouring shoppers were smokerstalned anc drawn. Sobs mingled with orders anc women fought to get hack into the store. An elevator door clanged and i . man's voice rang out: \The last load . Every child is here. Make way!\ An oddly garbed: figure, with burning : eyes stumbled past Monica. In his arms wer.e two small figures and jusi •, ahead, almost fainting from fright, tot [ tered the playroom maid with a thlrc • child In her arms. i Monica dashed forward.

They used to hold meetings to de- nonnnce carnivorous. pmutl<ie*< and- they had little restaurants, here, and ther.e in the larger cities where- nut. concoctions were made to resemble, wiener schnitzels and where the hum- ble lentil appeared In a hundred' dis- guises. It would be hard to llnd ai y.egr etarian restaurant now, but It Is^ten. times us easy to get ta,sty. vegetables. The reason Is that we have all'..be- come vegetarians of a sort. All kinds of figures are available to show'that Americans eat more lettuce and less meat. We cry for spinach, and are unhappy without our snlads. Fresh vegetables abound in the middle of the winter, so that no-American need drop them from his diet. The vegetarian clubs had little, to doi with the change. What converted us; was the vitamin. As soon as we began to worship at the vitamin: shrine, vegetarianism came into' its, own. Eating the fruits of the truqk.gar r den because we had to have vitamins, we presently found out that we were eating them because we liked them. Then along oame the slender silhou- ette, and the cry was more vegeta- bles! Vltamiris and reducing diets did the trick.

Re search is now going on in tlie Vaficni library In the hope of tracing m-vnu scripts of priest's wh\ visited Amerlc- at the time of tlie Spanish conquest It is hoped that these may prove n key to the Mayan hieroglyphic! which have been found.

Cana l Woul d Be Costly The cost of the proposed Nlcara- guan canal would be several times the cost of the Panama canal. The Nlcarnguan canal would be about 183 miles In length, 70 miles of which will be In Lake Nicaragua, 50 miles along the San Juan river, and the remain der through the mountain section. The region of Lake Gatun in the Panama oanal is 85 feet above mean sea level. The level of Lake Nicaragua is 105 feet.

The- discovery of the art of leaven Iqg. bread is. attributed to Egyptians. It meeds, no stretch of the imagina- tion to suppose that some attendant mijeed- up a, batter of wheat amf wn teij as, was the custom In ancient times, and instead of immediately pro- ceeding to dry or bake out this mate- rial, had allowed it to stand overnight. The next morning the attendant was undoubtedly alarmed to note that the hatter was t actively fermenting, had Increased in size, was full of bubbles, UPll had a different taste and aroma. However, probably acting under tlie impulse of trying to cover up his neg- lect, he' went ahead and baked with tlie fermented batter. Since leavened dough produces a much more palata- ble bread, astonishment; and delight must have greeted this discovery.

So.t;f-h African Prudisbness South Africa has been through the turmoil of a public morals campaign So far as dress Is concerned. At Dur- ban the police actually used a tape measure on the bathing costumes; at Capetown backless bathing suits were banned, and in Johannesburg a magis- trate sent a man to prison because he turned up In court in \rational dress\ —shorts and an open-necked collar. This need surprise nobody, because It- is all the spirit of the founders of the country. For instance, the sump- tuary laws of the Dutch East India company in 1755 stipulated that: \None but persons of highest rank can carry umbrellas In any weather.
