Despite the neutrality OF the Amer

TO make up any deficit that might
occur in their receipts by reason OF
the heavy tax that has recently been
levied on motion picture exhibitions
m England.
: American films have been, In q
measure, the sole feature OF the world
film industry since the war was six
months old. Most all Of the Eu-
ropean manufacturers have suspend
cd business or have transferred their
holdings to this country.
Recently when II became necessary

OF the war. the motion picture thea

also on the tickets sold in the thea

war taxes and will average consid-
OF the ticket. Tho tax applies to. the
high as we'll as to the low and to
regular theaters as well as motion

The Same tax applies In Canada. OF
course, and the film companies have
already been notified by the exhib-
itors and exchange men OF the ex-
istence Of the tax. The exports OF
films from the United States have
not yet shown any effect from the
tax imposed on them or the seat tax
in the theaters. but its effects are
expected to have Il depressing effect

Sugar and Sweetness.

Granulated sugar tastes sweet. Pow

comes less sweet.
Just owing to this fact it is very
hard to convince people that fine sugar
Is not adulterated.
Put a grain Of quinine, mixed, into
a pound Of graduated sugar, and the
sweetness increases. Common salt in
creases the sweetness Of cake and 9TH
or foods as well. Cooks are aware of
this and act accordingly.
Raw sugars, which contain very neg
ligible quantities of the sweeter sirups,
taste, much sweeter than graduated
sugar. Yet their sugar contents are.
as we have said. much less. This Is
due to the salts in the raw product
The ref1ners' imitation stuff is even
preferred to graduated for making ap-
pie pies, etc. ~
The sugar, unextracted, but used
when we eat a potato or an apple, is
really sweet compound and in the
case of good apple may be tasted
very distinctly as we eat. - London
