Fish Nibbles, IJjrht
Flashes, and—Bingo!
WASHINGTON.—Fishermen who
now must reel In their lines at
sundown may profit in enjoyment
from a patent issued to William S
■Goertzen of Newton, Kan.
Goertzen has perfected a n'>ht
fishing bobber with a flashlight in it
operated entirely by the fish. The
switch on the flashlight is attached
to the hook end of the line, and
when the fish bites he turns on the
light. That's the signal to reel him
in.
CHILDREN OF CITY
FOUND HEALTHIEST
Lowered Farm Income Causes
Widespread Malnutrition.
CAMBRIDGE, MASS.—The dras-
tic lowering of farm incomcs dur-
ing depression years has been the
•cause of recent scurvy epidemics
In Maine and dietary deficiencies
Jn Vermont and other rural states,
Lydia Tarrant, nutritionist of the
University of Vermont, told mem-
bers of the New England Health
Education institute at M. I. T.
Contrary to popular belief the city
child is healthier than his supposed-
ly red-cheeked country cousin, Miss
Tarrant declared. The object of a
program of education in Bennington
•county, Vermont, has been to show
the farmers how to live better and
flght malnutrition despite a lowered
Income.
For years farmers' wives have
been trying to feed their families
.properly on an average income of
about $678 a year. Only 77 per cent
of the children and none of the adults
had a quart of milk a day. Two
vegetables a day, besides potatoes,
were enjoyed by only half of the
farm population. Fresh fruits were
almost unknown as a regular part
of the diet.
As a result of the survey, the ex-
tension service of the university has
shown the farmers' wives they must
spend $2 a week on the food for
each member of the family. As a
result farmers have been drinking
more of their own milk and raising
more vegetables for home consump-
tion.
Other speakers at the two-day
convention were Louis Lyons of the
Boston Globe, Florence L. McKay,
assistant director of the division of
chiid hygiene, Massachusetts de-
partment of public health, and Dr.
Charles C. Wilson, director of physi-
cal and health education, Hartford,
Conn.
Claims Device Can Run
Auto on Water and Lye
DALLAS, TEXAS.—Henry Gar-
.rett, 76 years old, an electrician
and inventor of some note, said to-
•day he had patented an automobile
•carburetor which would permit the
use of water and ordinary lye as
.motor fuel.
"The only adjustment necessary
In present automobiles," he said,
"will be to adapt the piston cham-
bers to the more powerful explosion.
•One gallon of water mixed with a
can of ordinary lye will, with my
carburetor, do the work of 2,000 gal-
lons of gasoline."
The carburetor, he said, breaks
the water into explosive hydrogen
and oxygen gases eight times more
powerful than the vapors con-
densed from gasoline in orthodox
carburetors.
■Spml ;ng of Sports—i
my Dykes,
Miracle Man,
Revamps Sox
By ROBERT McSHANE
of baseball's present minor
miracles is the way in which
the White Sox have managed to keep
well up in the first division of the
American league pennant race.
The Yankees, of course, are right
at home in top position. First place
is automatically theirs by virtue of
DilVIaggio, Dickey, Gordon, Rolfe
and Selkirk—not to mention the
strongest pitching staff in either
league.
Number two position is held down,
logically enough, by the Red Sox.
They reached that status through
the aid of Foxx, Cronin, Grove, Wil-
liams and a few more of like caliber.
But It's not in tlie book for the
Chicago White Sox to be in their
piesent position. With (he exception
ot Luke Appling, there are no big
names in the Sox line-up. And, in-
cidentally, Appling isn't having his
best year by any means.
There are additional reasons why
the Sox should relinquish their first
division spot. The services of Mon-
ty Stratton, their best hurler, were
lost to them through a hunting acci-
dent. They have been minus the
services of their regular second
baseman most of the season, and
Hank Steinbacher, rookie hitting
Special Canadian Stamps
Will Mark Visit of King
OTTAWA, ONT.—Sale of special
one, two and three-cent double-size
stamps commemorating the visit of
King George VI and Queen Eliza-
beth will start throughout Canada
on May 15, the day the royal couple
set foot on Canadian soil at Quebec,
the postoffice department has an-
nounced.
The one-cent stamp will bear like-
nesses of Princesses Elizabeth and
Margaret Rose, the two cent a pic-
ture of the national war memorial
to be unveiled here May 18 by the
king and the three-cent stamp will
bear pictures of the king and queen.

JIMMY DYKES
sensation of last year, is batting less
than .200. Their catching staff is
as green as it is ambitious.
Regardless of logic, the Sox re-
fused to be clowned. And there's one
outstanding reason for tljeir present
position in the American league
scheme of things—that's the trading
genius behind their success—Man-
ager James J. Dykes.
Successful Trades
Four men are largely responsible
for the surprising showing of the
White Sox. They are Gerald Walk-
er, Eric McNair, Joe Kuhcl and
Mike Tresh. Each of the four was
added to the roster through the trad-
ing enterprise of Manager Dykes.
The Chicago swapping king got
Walker and Tresh, along with Mar-
vin Owen, from Detroit in a deal
I for Dixie Walker, Tony Piet and
Vernon Kennedy. Walker has driv-
en in enough runs this season to
take third place in the league, be-
hind Ted Williams of Boston and
Hank Greenberg of Detroit. He is
getting regular, and excellent, serv-
ice from Tresh.
Detroit, on the other hand, retains
none of the original three men they
drew in the six-man swap. Dixie is
now with Brooklyn. Kennedy was
! traded to St. Louis, and Piet has re-
tired from baseball.
Eric McNair came to the Sox
from Boston in return for Boze Ber-
ger. McNair's hitting ability has
been more than welcome by the
Sox. Since joining the Red Sox,
Berger has worked only as a sub-
stitute.
j Dykes picked up Kuhel in a trade
which sent Zckc Bonura to Wash-
ington. Kuhel had a poor season ill
ISM, hut hit his stride this year.
In the meanwhile Donura was
waived out of the American league.
Ills departure from Washington left
Bucky Harris talking to himself.
Second Rate?
The Sox have more than their
share of supposedly nondescript,
shop-worn players. Mike Kreevich,
center fielder, was turned down by
the Cubs; the Red Sox couldn't use
Pitcher Johnny Marcum; the Ath-
letics rejected Rip Radcliff, reserve
outfielder: George Rensa, second-
string catcher, was first tried by
Detroit, and many others were
found wanting by other clubs.
But those shop-worn baseball art-
ists have managed to win ball
trames, and in winning have had
more fun than any other team In
either league. They seem to get a
tremendous kick out of playing hall
—and act as thoujli the pay check is
a secondary proposition. No other
team has the hustle and the spirit of
the Sox. What they lack in me-
chanical playing ability Is made up
tor In the old college try.
Baseball addicts throughout the
country are anxious to see the Sox
come through. Since the unforget-
table scandal of 1919, the Sox have
been riding in hard luck. Maybe
luck has changed for the better.

Lightweight Golf
JOHN Q. GOLFER can't expect his
•J caddy to become very enthusias-
tic about an invention which will, if
it becomes popular, probably relieve
him of his job.
The new gadget is a golfing kit,
and its inventors expect it to replace
the conventional and cumbersome
set of clubs and the heavy bag. The
kit is so designed that it requires
only one shaft to which is attached
the head needed for each shot on
the course. The outfit weighs some
four pounds as compared to 14
pounds for the bag.
A Chicago golf pro experimented
with the kit and found it practical.
The club heads are all arranged in
slots and a zipper compartment pro-
vides space for balls. The club
heads all screw onto the single shaft,
and the experimenting pro found
that the heads provide a firm hit-
ting surface. When the club head
meets the ball the impact serves to
tighten the head since the golfer is
hitting against the groove of the
screw.
The length of the shaft is not ad-
justable, but a compensating factor
makes the putter properly short and
the distance clubs suitably long.
The ho,scl length controls the entire
club length. The hoscl on the putt-
er is practically non-existent, that for
the three iron and woods is extreme-
ly long.
That the kit will ever attain a high
degree of popularity is doubtful.
Most golfers will prefer the conven-
tional set of clubs. For the travel-
er, however, it means freedom from
a bulky bit of luggage. For the
golfer who prefers to play without a
caddy the new set eliminates a
heavy, unwieldy bag.
Luckman Signs
SID LUCKMAN, Columbia univer-
sity's triple-threat half back, has
finally decided to play professional
football with the Chicago Bears.
Willi the signing of Luckman, the
Bears have two of the three out-
standing passers of this year's col-
lege graduating class. Billy Pat-
terson had already signed with that
club. The third man, Davey
O'Brien of Texas Christian, belongs
to Philadelphia.
George Halas signed a great play-
er in Luckman. His passing record
is one of the best. Last year he
threw 132 passes, completing 66 for
nine touchdowns and 8(>6 yards. He
completed 10 out of 17 forward flips
against Yale for 169 yards. In 92
times carrying the ball he gained
428 yards, averaging 4.6 yards each
attempt.
Luckman is six feet tall and
weighs 195 pound,?. He possesses all
the physical requirements for star-
dom, and Halas will give him ample
opportunity to trying his hand at
carrying as well as passing the ball.
The Ivy league lad didn't leap at
the chance to turn pro. He seemed
to take much greater pride in his
academic training than in his ath-
letic ability. It took quite a bit of
persuasion to get him back in mole-
skins, and sighs of relief were dis-
tinctly audible when he affixed his
signature to a two-year contract.

SANDWICHES MAINSTAYS OF SUMMER MENL'3
(See Recipe Below)
'Make Mine a Ham on Rye'
\^r
Sandwiches in all their delightful
variety are the mainstays of sum-
mer menus. Grilled sandwiches
make a "one-dish meal" for lunch
or supper; substantial sandwiches
with hearty fillings make a satisfy-
ing picnic lunch:
and dainty "tea
sandwiche s."
served with a
frosted beverage,
are perfect for a
party.
But it keeps a
woman's wits
working overtime
to provide sand-
wiches that are
new and different! And new and dif-
ferent they must be, if they're to
retain the appetite appeal which
makes them popular.
Success With Sandwiches.
1. Use bread that is a day old.
2. Cream the butter—don't melt it.
3. Whatever the filling, use plenty
of it.
4. Keep sandwiches moist for sev-
eral hours by wrapping them in wax
paper or in a clean cloth wrung out
of hot water.
5. Remember to use a variety in
breads, as well as fillings—whole
wheat, rye, graham, oatmeal, brown
bread, raisin bread, nut bread and
orange bread all make delicious
sandwiches.
6. Use left-over sandwiches for
next day's lunch or supper by
"french toasting" them—merely dip
the sandwiches in beaten egg. pan
fry them on both sides, and serve
hot with a garnish of watercress or
sweet pickle.
Raisin Orange Filling [or
Sandwiches.
(Makes 8-10 sandwiches)
2 cups raisins
2 teaspoons grated orange rind
4 tablespoons orange juice
Grind the raisins, add orange rind
and juice and blend well. Use with
white or whole wheat bread.
Banana Butter Filling,
(Makes 1 cup filling)
1 ripe banana
Vi> cup peanut butter
V* cup dates (cut fine)
1 teaspoon lemon juice
Mash banana with a fork and thor-
oughly blend in remaining ingredi-
ents.
Mayonnaise Sandwich Loaf.
1 loaf bread
1 head lettuce
Vt cup boned chicken
cup mayonnaise dressing
3 slices broiled bacon
1 medium sized tomato
% package cream cheese
1 tablespoon prepared mustard
Ripe olives
Celery *
Remove crusts and slice a me-
dium sized loaf of bread lengthwise
in three long
slices. Place crisp
lettuce leaves on
the slice and add
a layer of boned
chicken. Spread a
second slice of
bread with may-
onnaise and place
dressing side
down, on the chicken. Add crisp
broiled bacon and thin sliced toma-
toes as the sandwich filling on this
second layer. Spread tomatoes with
mayonnaise dressing and top with
third long slice of bread. Mix 3 to 4
packages softened cream cheese
with one tablespoon prepared mus-
tard and frost the loaf. Garnish
with ripe olives and parsley. Slice
as for any ordinary loaf of bread.
Serve on individual plates.
Hot Peanut Butter Sandwiches.
Toast 5 slices of bread on one
side only. Then spread untoastcd
side with '■a cup peanut butter, and
then with V« cup chili sauce. Top
with slices of bacon and brotl slowly
until bacon is slightly browned and
crisp. Serve with gherkin pickle
fans.
Sandwich Spread.
2 teaspoons dry mustard
Vi cup sugar
3/i teaspoon salt
Vi cup milk
2 eggs (slightly
beaten)
Vi cup vinegar
2 teaspoons lem-
on juice
6 tablespoons
soft butter
1 3-ounce pack-
age cream
cheese
V* cup pimiento (chopped)
V4 cup olives (chopped)
2 tablespoons pickle (chopped)
1 tablespoon green pepper (chopped)
In a double boiler place the mus-
tard, sugar, salt and milk. Blend
in eggs and vinegar, and cook, stir-
ring constantly, until thickened. Re-
move from flame, and add remain-
ing ingredients. Store in refrigera-
tor until using.
Savory Sandwich Filling.
1 pound American cheese.
V\ pound dried beef
1 cup condensed tomato soup
Run cheese and beef through food

WORTH REMEMBERING
Brown paper moistened in vine-
gar will polish tins until they shine
like silver.
Save all paraffin as you remove it
frcm your preserves and jelly.
A man's pipe cleaner makes an
excellent device for cleaning the
spout of the coffee or tea pot.
Emptying a cream whipper and
bowl is wasteful unless one takes
time to scrape them carefully.
To prevent sugar from forming
in preserves or jam, add a teaspoon
of corn sirup to the contents of
each pint.
When the faucets in your bath-
room need polishing take a soft
cleth wet in kerosene and it will
brighten them instantly without in-
jury.
Instead of peeling whole apples,
first cut them in half, then in quar-
ters, cut out the core and then peel.
This is a great time saver.
Instead of peeling potatoes or
scraping carrots, scrub same with
a chore ball, and skins will come off
easily without waste.
For a Higher Effect
Interior dccorators have now de-
cided that the use of a deep color
on ceilings raises them, instead of
lowers, as has been usually thought.
A new trick is to carry the side
wall paper up onto the ceiling about
10 inches, instead of dropping the
ceiling color down on the sides. This
creates an optical illusion of greater
height.
"Loving kindness and tender mer-
cies" (Ps. 103:4) are among the glo-
rious attributes of our God, and con-
sequently characteristic of those
who love and serve Him. The world
has all but forgotten these virtues,
for in its brutal determination to
achieve results there is only an out-
ward veneer of courtesy and consid-
eration which extends itself primari-
ly to those from whom some advan-
tage may be obtained or who are
highly regarded because of their
wealth or position. The poor and
needy, the aged and afflicted are
quickly brushed aside as unfortu-
nate hindrances in the path of prog-
ress.
In all times God's people have
been those most considerate of oth-
ers. It is they who have given time
and effort and means to help those
in need. The life of Elisha is well
characterized as a life of helpful-
ness. It is surprising to find how
many of his miracles were for the
purpose of helping others. God's
servants are called to be leaders and
to be preachers, but they are none-
theless called to carry on a life of
helpful service. Elisha's experience
with Naaman suggests how we may
exercise such a ministry. Without
seeking to designate verses in the
text, shall we observe that we must
I. Find the One in Need.
It is not always that the one with
the deepest need makes himself
known. In fact, it is commonly true
that those who have the greatest
need and are possibly the most
worthy of help keep their sorrows
to themselves. Certainly it is true
that those afflicted with the leprosy
of sin do not often come to church.
We must go out and seek them and
bring them in.
One of the weaknesses of many
churches today is that they go
through their regular services,
which may include preaching the
gospel, and then they lament the
fact that sinners do not come to the
services to hear and be saved. Let
us be reminded that it is our busi-
ness to go out into the highways
and the byways to find those in need.
Naaman's experience illustrates how
the simple word of a little slave
girl was instrumental in bringing the
leper in touch with the man of God.
Had she failed in her responsibility,
the prophet would have missed his
opportunity to minister. Even the
humblest believer has his important
work, seeking out the lost and
needy, and may thus be the means
of bringing about great blessing.
II. Locate and Diagnose the Con-
dition.
Naaman knew that he had leprosy,
but he did not know that he had a
blight of soul called pride. The
prophet, acting under the guidance
and control of God, struck right at
the heart of things wh^n he directed
Naaman to crush his pride and to
show his faith by obeying God's
command to wash seven times in the
Jordan.
The story has many important ap-
plications. Let us be sure that in
our efforts to help people nhysically
or socially, we get through to their
real need, the need of Christ. Let
us also be careful not to modify or
change God's requirement. There
is one way of salvation—through
faith in Christ; there is no other
remedy for sin. A man "must be
born again" or "he cannot enter
the kingdom of God" (see John 3;
3-7). If men are too proud to go
that way. they cannot be saved.
Observe also that there was no re-
spect of persons on the part of Eli-
sha. Naaman was a great and dis-
tinguished man; ready to bestow
rich gifts, but the man of God had
no interest in those things He want-
ed only to give God's message.
III. Apply the Remedy.
One would be quick to condemn
the trained physician who, having
found his patient and having given
his attention to his need, made a
careful and accurate diagnosis and
then sent him away without apply-
ing the cure which was in his pos-
session. As the servants of Christ
the great Physician, engaged in the
cure of souls, we need to be equally
wise. It is commendable to engage
in a discussion of the problems of
needy men and women, expressing
our heart interest in that need. It
is desirable that we clarify our
knowledge of their need and accu-
rately understand the truth of the
gospel which meets that need. How-
ever, all of these things are quite
meaningless unless they result in the
bringing of the gospel to bear on the
lives of the unconverted.
Then They Sober Up
People always laugh at the fool
things you try to do until they dis-
cover that you are making money
at it.
Tradition should be freated with
respect. It is often worth follow-
ing.
Real love seldom makes beauti-
ful speeches. Mere often it is
dumb.
We Average Humans
We sadly contemplate our bad
habits, and then reconcile our-
selves to them.
There would be but few myster-
ies in this world if people looked
into everything as closely as a
woman looks into a mirror.
What would happen if a man
could be put through the processes
of a beauty shop as a woman is?
Solitude
An hour of solitude, passed in sin-
cere and earnest prayer or con-
flict with, and conquest over, a sin-
gle passion or subtle bosom sin,
will teach us more of thought, will
more effectually awaken the fac-
ulty and form the habit of reflection
than a year's study in the school*
without them.—Coleridge.
