the fish are now dressed by the re-

are caught, thoroughly washed and
laid in shallow pans. These pans are
placed on the ice-covered pipes Of the
freezer, which usually is at tenn
perature a little lower than zero. After
from twelve to twenty-four hours the
fish arr frozen solid They then form
a large cake, held together by the
freezing of the thin layer of water

Frozen fish is thus the only hsh
product the composition OF which is
not altered in some way by the proc

ing, sailing or picking all alter the

frozen fish, however, the envelope OF
ice has only to be melted in order TO
give US back an article OF food that
is practically identical with that taken
from the sea. If it were not for such
a method Of preservation fish could
not be depended upon as a constant
source of food. In the fish trade
there is a succession Of glutted mar
kets and periods of scarcity, and IN
consequence there are times when
fresh fish brings so little that there Is
no profit in catching them, and there
are other times when they cannot
be obtained at any price. The ireez,,

TN THE weekly news letter Of the
/ Department Of Agriculture we
are assured that frozen fish is a
good food value, a wholesome and
cheap substitute for meat.
Recent Investigations carried on by
the department appear 10 indicate that
the prejudice against the eating OF
FISH, especially frozen fish, because Of
the alleged danger Of ptomaine poison
ing, is quite unfounded A partial de-
composition Of either fish or meat may
result in the formation of certain sub
stances that cause digestive troubles.
These substances are popularl} known
as ptomaines. alth gca mary OF them
have not yet been fully studied and
their nature determined. The whole
question is very complex one, but
there is, however, no reason for as
s1ming that there is any more like
hhOod Of ptomaines in fish than in
meat New processes Of preserving
hsh by freezing, glazing and cold stor-
age make it as safe an article Of food
as meat.
This popular prejudice has done
much 10 hinder the development OF
What might be a far greater industry
and mas prevented the people from OBJ
tanning a wholesome, economical and
attractive substitute for meat at the
very time when the price Of meat has
'een rising rapidly. Many persons
cat fish only on fast days" and espe-
tally on Fridays. The idea that Fri
Gay is fish day" has compelled the fish
"dde TO do what amounts largely TO
one-day-in-the-week business. This,
" course, has tended TO make prices
h'gher than necessary. With an in
Veased demand the supply of fish
would be much larger, and II the con-
sumption were distributed evenly
throughout the week the waste would
De much less and the prices should
'Ohsequently be lower.
both scientific research and practi-
'a' experience have shown that a fish

Do New York boys enjoy Fresh Air
vacations in the country? Are they
benefited by them?
These arc two vital tests of the value
Of The Tribune's Fresh Air work. Per
haps there are persons VINO are skep-
teal as to whether the questions may
be answered afirmatively.
Here are answers to both Of them
that seem 70 go TO the root Of the mat
ter. They are given in the form in
which they came to hand, without the
change Of so much as a comma. AS to
good times;
July 6-N. 7. City.
Dear Sir:
Please find check enclosed for 5 Dol
lars for your Fresh Air Fund. Years
ago my children were sent to the coun-
try through your fund. They are
young men now, but they tell about the
good times sometimes now they had
long ago on the Farm. With best
wishes for your work from
Mrs. R..
Please don't mention my name
As TO benefits derived:
June 10, 1915.
Dear Sir:
VIII YOU kindly accept this very
small gift from Mr.. and Mrs. NJ. ..,..
in loving memory Of their beloved son
George. who for some years The New
York Fresh Air Fund have helped so
freely. at times when i'll and being
poor boy his parents were happy TO
have such kind friends IN providing ms
fare 10 Binohamton and New Berlin, II
was the only thing that helped to pro-
long his life Tor the past five years.
George had a valvular heart trouble
and died Nov. 10, 1914. We his parents
feel very grateful TO you dear friends
for all that you ever did for George
and Mrs. N... In the future do
hope may be able to do more IN Joln-
inc Won dear ones in helping other
moor needy children. With best wishes
10 all Yours Truly
Mr.. & Mrs.......
Here is the truth from, not onlook-
ers. not socioligists. but those who
know b. actual experience the Joy and
the good the fund brings through ITS
country fortnights. Here, also, is some
Of the bread cast upon the waters re-
turning after many years.
It must have been real fun those
boys-now grown to young men had
on the farm years ago if they still
stop occasionally to talk about it and
laugh over it Those must be real ben
efts which are derived from country
outing if thcy, as the parents say
above, may lengthen a child's life BY
five years.
Are you one Of those people who re-
fuse to contribute TO the Fresh Air
Fund and other charities because, as
YOU say, giving to the poor simply en-
courages them to ask for more? NO

fciaries who have fought their way

81 am very doubtful about asking the

Expert Study Needed.
"The matter should have not only
most serious attention, but expert
study as we'll" said Miss Valid. The
teachers themselves answer the ques-
ton which the community is asking:
Are five hours a day, five days a week
and 100 days a year as much as a
teacher can give to her work without
exhaustion? p
Perhaps, indeed, they are answering
it, but the subject needs study. II
there are conditions under which teach
ers can work for longer periods we
should discover them.
Il am most thoroughly in favor Of
democratic organization OF the schools
and of changes in the curriculum to
bring it closer to the experiences and
needs Of the children.

~"BUCKSHOT JOHN"

A photoplay of exceptional interest
and merit will be shown at Greenwood
Theatre, Friday, May 14th. This is
''Buckshot JOHN from the story by
Charles E. Van Loan. The plot is one
of the most original seen in pictures,
conferred as it is around two unique
characters, a Western bad-man who
later is a convict, and a polished. clever
charlatan. These are played by Hobart
Bosworth and Courtenay Foote, in q
manner which is a revelation of the
possibilities of acting in the silent
drama. The photography is so fine
that it sets a new standard even for
Bosworth, which has always been
famous for the technical superiority of
its releases. Several effects, taken by
George w. Hill, have never been
shown on the screen before, notably a
scene taken by moonlight without the
aid of artificial light.

Nell Gwyn, the character portrayed

To her fame is added by the astonish-

The character of Nell offers Miss

portrayal involves not only the delinea.

actress, but also that of sne disguised
