TENNIS COURTS ALL
LIT UP" by JUICE

For years tents has been one of the
most popular out door sports in
California. The natural attractions of
the game itself and a climate that per-
mits its enjoyment on an average of
$50 days a year has been the cause of
this popularity. OF late, ways and
means have been sought to increase
the capacity of the now er-crowded
courts.
Some five years asD. George Billings
of Mill Valley installed the first over
head electric lighting of tennis court
in California at the famous Mill Val
ley shell court This installation was
decided success and enabled many a
tired business man to enjoy his favor
| tie sport during the cool evenings.
| Other courts in California have been
similarly lighted with success, but the
real tryout has come with the stand
ard overhead installation on two of the
public courts in Golden Gate Park, Sar
Francisco. 1t is the intention to give
this installation a thorough tryout and
if night tennis playing becomes popu-
lar with the public the other eighteen
asphalt courts in the Golden Gate Park
group will be similarly lighted.

VIEW RADIO OUTFIT WILL TAKE MESSAGES
At RATE Of one THOUSAND WORDS MINUTE

II IS not so very long ago since Jim
ne village telegraph operator learned
% take twenty words minute" This
stamped Jim as an expert in his day
ana soon he was in the Hoyt's Corner
station of the valley railroad at a sal
airy OF $50 a month. That was Jim s
future From the village operator he
went to the big station and from there
TO the trainmaster's office. Many of
our noted railroad presidents rose from
Jim's humble station and many of us
have at one time or another toyed with
the keys and wondered what kind of
ears Jim had to make sense out of the
strange clicks which came in over the
wire.
Then came the dawn OF a wireless
age only a few years back Remem-
her the sensation when somebody an
nounced that wires were not needed
to record the dots, dashes and sent
ences? Then on came Marconi and
Cary and number of others and soon
We had transatlantic communication
by wireless. History repeated itself
for the Jims of another. generation be-
gan all over to do what Jim did as a
boy. They bought toy radio outfits
and rugged up wireless apparatus on
roofs and quickly we were again a ma
ton of operators. The war interrupt

EGGS COOKED WITH
ELECTRICITY WILL
ALWAYS BE BETTER

The law of cooking all egg mixtures
is slow cooking at a moderate tenn
perature. If we try to hurry the pro-
cess the result will be a loss in guam
tity, loss in digestfbility and a loss
in attractive appearance.
When the white of egg is heated to
134 degrees. fine threads appear in it;
it becomes semi-sohd and is easily
digested. If heated to $50 degrees, it is
tender white jelly, easily digested. If
heated to boiling point, PIP degrees. it
becomes a tough jelly and is less cas-
lily digested. If fried to 500 degrees, it
becomes hard, horny and very midi
gestible.
Every one knows how scrambled
eggs are usually prepared. lump of
butter is dropped into pan and wh~-
it is sizzling hot two eggs slightly
beaten up with a little liquid are
turned into the pan; they are then
stirred round and round very rapidly
and dished up. Is it any wonder that
the eggs have a raw, underdone taste?
They should be cooked slowly at a
moderate temperature with an electric
grill the temperature can be regulated
as there are three degrees of heat pos
sible, and the grill should be put on
low heat. Do not stir the eggs round
and round but move the spoon or fork
back and forth in parallel lines.
Scrambled eggs are easily prepared
in the shallow pan of electric grill; for
each egg allow one tablespoon of liquid
which may be water, milk, cream or
soup stock. When creamy. turn on to
hot buttered toast and serve.

Wireless wave words at the rate of
1000 per minute. Try to talk a thous-
and words a minute; see if you come
nearer to fifty than you to one hum
bred. No human being can receive
messages at the rate of a thousand
words per minute. They had added
some five, ten or fifteen to Jim's rec

In a great plain on Long island. near
New York, they are going to build a
plant on a plot ten miles square.
When completed the work will cost ten

signal around the world from this

full as the famous station at Nauen or
the French station at Bordeaux. The
General Electric company of Science
tady which designed much of the ap-
paratus is also credited with the re-
ceiving instrument which makes pos
sible the record of 1000 words a min
ute.
The instrument is partly a photo
graphic apparatus. A light weight mir
ror f1utters in electro magnetic tune
with the minute electric impulses COM
ing from the big steel towers out in
the field The oscillations vary just
as Jim used to vary his dots and
dashes. The mirror then reflects a
beam of light on a moving Sensitized
tape The tape goes through a de-
veloping fluid and then just as on a
stock brokers' tape you read off the
message. There is a word in dots and
dashes on every inch of the tape. The

CLEANERS RUN BY
ELECTRICITY ONLY
SANITARY METHOD

While her mate was hunting the
mastodon OF stalking some piehistoric
wild beast to its lair. the prehistoric
woman with a bundle of twigs cal e
lcssly brushed the piled up debris from
the cave-home leaving plenty of DIRT
behind That was prehistoric clean
ms.
Later generations took gre tier care
with the home cleaning until in grand
mothers day carpets were swept and
rugs shaken and beaten in an honest
effort to clean house. Sucn house
cleaning days were a vast improve
ment over the bunch of tW3gs in the
hands of the cave woman, bit in spite
of the toll of later days, GRANDMOTHER
house was never really as clean rs she
imagined it was. All the sweeping
merely gather up surface dire. while
beating stirred up the dust ana els
sen1inated it into the surrounding at
mosphere. Sweeping done the old way
was the hardest kind of work. Dust
ing was doing the work twice.
Consider cleaning the new way with
the modern electric cleaner. You can
push it around with one hand and still
not be tired 1t is simple to operate,
merely connecting a cord to any con-
venient outlet and turning on electric
current. Electric cleaners are such up
to-date, efficient cleaners that clean
ing day has been reduced to cleaning
hour, almost.
The electric cleaner is the funda-
mental household help in the modern
household. 1t is the housewives first
lieutenant to the war on dirt. A truly
industrious cleaner is not satisfied with
merely cleaning carpets and rugs. 1t
comes with special attachments for
cleaning uphols terry, portieres. mat
tresses, mouIdings. It VIII aerate pill
lows and beddalg. 1t will do high dust
ing, so it is no longer necessary to
mount a step ladder to dust mouldings
and little lodges on which the dust
gathers thickIy. Digging out corners
is now done by pressing an electric
button while applying a long handed
suction tool to the offending spott so
that one no longer stoops to conquer
dirt Cleaning with a powerful air sue
ton gets all that deeply imbedded dirt
that brooms and brushes would not
bulge and away 1t goes into the bag
Such ease and speed in cleaning make
