Really. when all is said and done. candy favors are the easiest to choose. The shops are full of appropriate and very attractive candy favors. A bit of red. white and blue ribbon or a flag converts a cake of milk chocolate into a highly patriotic favor. But there are some candy favors expressly made for the Fourth. There are various little nose- gays made of red. white and blue gum drops—the blue is a difficult shade in candy. but it is fairly well ' accomplished. There are boxes of candles wrapped in red. white and blue tinfoil and arranged in the design of a flag or an eagle. There are chocolate figures of various appropriate sorts.

Lyrics of Life DOUGLAS MALLOG'I .i I THEY‘RE WELL I tip-teed to her room Just now: Her hands were folded on her breast. The peace of sleep lay on her brow. And her lovely limbs possessed. And then. I thought. how greatly blessed We are. who have no grief to tell. When. looking on our loved I rest. Our hearts may say. "Thank God. they're well." For I. like you. have sighed for fame. Have wished a little verso or two Might win a little more acclaim. That I a better verse might do» And I have sighed for wealth. like you. Have sighed for wealth who had my wealth. Who had my wealth and never knew, For God my love had given health. I might have gold and fame and lands. And yet how lonely I might be. But looking on their folded hands. I know how good God is to me. Perhaps a path of poverty You need to walk. I cannot tell. But tip-toe to the doorway. See. They're all asleep. Thank God. they’re well. How Do You Say It? Common Errors—— in English and How to Avoid Them By C. N. LURIE ' “HE" USED WRONGLY FOB ldm"0 “ HOULD not a Christian com- S munity receive with open arms he who comes out into the erd with clean hands and a clean heart?" In the foregoing sentence the word "he" should be “him." It is. speak- ing in the language of the gram- marian, in the objective cue. the object of the verb "receive." and so such should be put in the objective form of the personal pronoim “be." which is "him." not “he." If the clause. “who comes out into the world." etc.. is omitted. the errorrbo- comes apparent at once. You would not say. "A Christian commule should receive he." Similar errors are the following: "He would not believe we boys.’ instead of "He would not believe us boys.” “The spoils belong to be who has gained the victory." insteed of 'to him." nr YOU HAVEN‘T ANY FAVORS FOB TOMORROW Perhaps you have forgotten to get favors for tomorrow's festive. table.

Now. that Uncle Sam is the owner of two mighty sirshipo. the Shenandoah and the 23-3. the dazzling dream of s flight across the frossn wastes of the North Pole has been taken out of the pixoanhole where it was but early in the year. Recent reports from Washington quote the Secretary of the Navy as saying that the Polar flight will be started next spring. provided the plan receives the approval of the President. The safe arrival of the ZR-3 has eliminated the argu— ment that the Navy could not af- ford to risk its only airship in so haurdous an undertaking. The Navy wants to make the flight. and its confldenee in the success of the venture has been strengthened by th e recent achievements in radio communica- tion in the Far North—notably the success of Captain Donald A. Mac- Millan in keeping in touch with the outside world while his little ship was frozen in the Arctic. Likewise the Canadian government steamer Arctic. in a recent VON. to Etch, Greenland. picked up on- “N Programs transmitted on short waves from station KDKA in Pitts- bursh. Pa. Radio guided the Z'R—S safely out of the path of storms in the long flight across the ocean. and it marked the way for the Shenan- doah across the continent. It is the one thing that makes the Polar flight more than a fantastic dream. Once again an amateur has set up a new radio long-distance mark to shoot at. H. Johnson. who operated amateur station I-SF at Short Bosch, Conn. reported to the‘ American Radio Belay League a few days ago that he had oom- municsted with Ivan O'Meara ,It Gisborne. New Zealand. 9. 000 miles away. Communication was in both directions. The best previous distance rec. ord was made by W. B. Magner. of San Pedro. Calif. who commu- nicated with Frank D. Bell. of Waihemo. New Zealand.. 8.000 miles distant. Every fan wants to know at times which is the positive and which the negative terminal of a battery. a house lighting circuit. or some other electrical apparatus. A limall bottle fllled with a solu- tion of the chemical called phe- nolphthaloln. which can be ob- tained at an! Md drug store. will serve this purpose well. wide mouth. and a good cork to fit it. Thrust two wires through this cork. one at each side. Fill the bottle about two-thirds full of the phenolphthaloin solution. so that both wires dip into it. Add a grain or two of common salt to the solution. Now if you connect the termi- nsis of the circuit to be tested with the two wires projecting from the bottle. a red color will sp- poar in the phenolphthalein solu- tion around the wire that is con- nodsd with the negative pole. When you shake the bottle this color will disappear. If you have a potentiometer connected across your dry A bat- tery. don't forget to disconnect the battery when you have finished listening in. Otherwise there will be a considerable drsin through the potentiometer winding. This is especially important if the potentiometer is of comparatively low Nuance. m RADIO Pam One Daily Fact For Listeners Spider Web Coils are cells for inductance or for coupling. wound in a certain manner that resembles somewhat the shape and character of a spider web. They do not differ much from other kinds of coils in most of their electric prop- erties. but they have the advan- tage of a flat shape that enables two of them to be placed close to gather. like two dinner plates. There are also some other elec- trical and mechanical properties that are of more interest to the professional radio ensineer than to the: ema‘tteurn . b i o m e a we col you take first a w; cardboard or flbor three or four inches in diam- eter. In this you cut an odd num- ber of radial slits. reaching from the edge of the disk part way toward the center. The wire is then wound around the disk in circles concentric with the disk it- self. It passes through the slits: over one segment of the disk made i by the slits. than underneath the next segment. than over the next one. and so on. ' This produces. you observe. a thin. flat coil of wire shaped more or lose like a pancake. The elec- tromagnot fleid produced by such a coil extends outward from the coil, not along its edge. but from its center. lromsguotic field is coincident with the line through the center The axis of this elec- Milo with! of the cell and perpendicular to cell. nauseating WINIFRED INIFRED has the fanciful "white interpretation of stream". It s o u n d s strangely reminiscent of forest glsdes and pagan elves. but it is by derived from Welsh re- gion. According to legend. a Welsh nun named Gwenfrewi was )ohoaded by a furious prince called Caradoc. because she refused his addresses. After the fashion of most Welsh saints. she caused a well to spring up over the place of her‘martyrdom. This wall does not flow continuv ally. but it has medicinally values. and its stones are said to be red- veined with tho blood of the saintly nun. She was called by the English St. Winifred. and as Winifred. or Wenefred. was ac- cepted by Wales in place of the somewhat unpronouncabie Gwen- grewi. Indeed. her popularity in Wales was so tremendous that she become almost the national Welsh name. which is frequently confused with terchangeably with it. Winifred has never gained the vague here that she has in England But Winnie. the diminutiVe. is popular in America. which loves contrac- tions and endearmcnts. Curiously enough. none of the European countries have adopted the name or placed the stamp of their in- fluence upon it. It remains purely a product of the British Isles. .Freda is another contraction which is Donulcr in this country. Whether the German Frieda is allied with this is an open question with etymologists. The beryl is Winifred's talis- manic stone. It assures her amia- bility and gives her inconquerable charm. according to an old proph- ecy. It is said that no one wear- ing a beryl will lose in litigation. It also awakens love in married people. Friday is her lucky day The Saxons had a Winifrith. and 2 her lucky number.

THE SUMMER BREAKFAST HOT day is started pleasantly A if the breakfast table is at- tractive. If you have some sort of porch where the breakfast table can be spread, you are fortunate, for an outdoor breakfast is an ideal begin- ning to a summer's day. Some not pretentious country houses are made with a small flagged arbor contain- ing chairs and table where breakfast is served. You know you can buy goodvlooking enamel metal garden chairs for three _or four dollars apiece and a card table will serve as well as anything if need be. Of course if you use a. card table a small linen cloth that covers it gives the most attractive appear- once. If you have an enameled garden table in good condition. then dailies look well. or indeed you may serve the breakfast without any table covering at all. If you can af- ford to haxe special china for the garden breakfast choose some of the Iihcapor peasant pottery in leaf green or soft yuellow Both in shape and color it is appropriate for gar- den use. In hot weather a breakfast of fruit crisp toast and coHee—-the cof- fee hot to the point ofyscaldlng~ would be almost sure to tempt the laggard appetite. Of course there one many people who prefer a heartier breakfast even in hot weather, but well cooked cereal and eggs. rather than any more elabor- ate dishes, will make the best hearty summer breakfast.

HE present meaning of the T word "Sybarite" is "a luxuri— ous person. an epicure." one who makes a fetish of comfort and luxury and thinks far more of them than he does of the larger things of life. This term comes to us directly from the name of the city of Sybaria. situated inssouthern Italy. near the west shore of the Gulf of Taranto. Syharis was founded by the Greeks about 730 B. C. and became a very poweer province. commanding four neighboring nations and being capable of placing an army of some 300,000 men in the field. In time. how— ever, the Sybarites or inhabitants of Sybaria became proud and domineering. noted for their ef- feminacy and self-indulgence. It is reported that no trade which entailed the making of a noise was permitted to be carried on in the city and Seneca tells the story of a Sybarite who complained that he had slept badly and that. upon examining his bed in the morning. “he had found a roseleaf doubled under him. which had causeed him extreme pain." Finally. Sybaris was overthrown and never re- gained its former glory. though its name persists to this day through the medium of the word 5—“Man. proud man. plays such fantastic tricks before high Heaven. as make the angels weep." 6—“A little philosophy inclineth a man's mind to atheism. but . depth in philosophy bringeth men’ s minds about to religion.
