Skibinsky Concert Company.

Alexander M. Skibinsky, of the
ISkibinsky Concert Company which
comes here during the Radcliffe Chau
tauqua is !; violinist that has accomp
lished things unprecedented in the
history of musicians. His hand was
blown to shaplessness by dynamite.
The index finger was carried COM
pletely away and the other fingers al
re- st hopelessly mangled. The thumb
was torn back to the wrist and his
little finger broken in three places.
"Amputation of the entire hand or
DEATH" said the physician. "Then
let me die" replied Skibinsky, for to
a violinist hand is as precious as
life ITSELF
However, Skibinsl1y did not did,
Skilled surgery reset the shattered
bones, sewed up the mangled hand
and put on an artificial finger. With
this handicap he determined to be a
greater vionlinist than ever before,
and no one hearing him at the Cha
tauqua would ever suspect that many
of the muscles of his injured hand
are entirely gone and that three fin
gers are perfectly stiff.
Skibinsky is a great violinist, and
his concert company is one of the
best on the Chautauqua plotform to-
day. With him come Miss Maud Tur-
ner, dramatic soprono, and Miss Con-
stance Mckay, reader and entertain
er. The best way to attend Chautau
qua is through a seson ticket, and
any of the local guarantors will be
able to supply you with as many as
you need.

MONTEREY FRIDAY JULY 80 1920

8 4
People who have afepedaled the
sugar bowl for six years may be in
terested in the statement that crop
conditions on July / promised an IN
crease in next falls sugar production
in the United States; an increase am
ount1ng to approximately, 333,00o
tons, or enough to load a train OF
freight cars 70 miles long allowing
40 tons per car. This prospective crop
80 cc.---ettsf to more than % pounds OF
sugar for every man woman ana
child within the United States, and
the increase over last year equals
more than six pounds per person.
The sugar-beet crop this year covers
almost a million acres as against the
5-year average of about two thirds
of a million; and the growing con-
diticn on July l was above the 10
year average. There is more than a
half million acres Of sugar-cane this
year, about half of which is intended
for sugar and the other half for syr-
up. The Department of Agriculture,
which has carried on q number of pro
jects looking toward making this
country self-sustaining from a sugar
standpoint, is cooperating with other
agencies in protecting the crops from
promoting the production and util-
ization of a bumper crop of sugar. 1t
should be borne in mind, however,
that the forecast for 1920 is based up
on conditions on July l and the &C
tual outturn would be above or below
this forecast according as conditions
between July l and harvest are bet
ter or worse than average.

RECOVERING FROM THE WAR

Belgium, hardest hit by the war of
Ill allied countries except Serbia re-
norris that her railroads arc restored,
her coal production is greater than it
was before the war and her food pro-
duction is almost up to normal. Fran
ce, which had so great q part of its
agricultural acreage laid waste, has
excellant crops this year, with more
than her prc-war havest CT wheat,
and will be able to feed her own peo-
pie next winter. England, as result
mainly of the mole thorough Guilt
walton of small areas and home gar
dens. has greatly increased her food
production over the war years.
So it goes. Nearly all the countries
of Europe except BoIshevist Russia
ana the self-ruincd Central powers
show signs of more rapid recovery
than was expected. The popular mood
in many places remains pessimistic
but often the material acts give the
lie to pessimism.
The United States is no exception:
This country has been all along more
fortunate than most of it's war part
ners in it's freedom from direct war
Iravages and it's comparative prosper
ity. There are a few misfortunes now
except those Of our own making, and
they are probably milder than we de-
serve
Crops are good, the wheat crop par
Iticularly, which in spite of slim eX-
pectations is going to top the five
year average. The railroads are not
] IN good shape, and coal production is
slow, and business in some industries
shows signs Of dulness. But on the
whole conditions are surprisingly
good, when one remembers what
presidential years used to be, and
considers the economic sins of commits
Ision and omission of which this nat
ION has been guilty. And nearly ev,
cry expert declares that conditions
are fundamentally sound, with a fine
pl aspect for several years to come
when once this period of hesitancy is
lover
The world is recovering from the
war, material recovery, strange tt
say, is coming first. Morally, mental
lily, spiritually, recuperation comes
more slowly. Nevertheless there is
improvement in those spheres, too
The mental gloom is less thick than
it was a. few months ago, and there
is a stronger disposition to look to
the future cheerfully and confident
lily. We may get the war out of ou1
system, and find ourselves in new
and buoyant era before we know it.

Love puts its own perfect lines upon our
faces Yet hate can destroy what love creates,
Just as a savage can destroy the work Of the
master artist Anger and jealousy poison the
blood and rob the skin of its color, Patience
is one of our helpers but not in the sense of
giving up to adverse circumstances. The only
thing we should ever give up to is the good.
Every kind thought. every helpful word and
act furthers our quest for the real beauty which
does not desert us as the years pile up
We are learning more about ourselves in these
days of scientific marveS. When the POSSIBLE
tiles of the air have yielded all its secrets, we
shall still be interested in ourselves, for we are
truly fearfuy and wonderfully made a unity of
mind soul and body. 1t is due TO recent eX-
plorations in our minds that we are learning
some of its laws. We discover that beauty is
the inevitable result of harmonious thinking.
There is a rhythm of love, hope JOY, good Will
which makes the curves of beauty and an
opposite destructive force that cuts in the
angles
I've given you the key. You must do the
work for yourself. Beauty is your divine right,

FASHION NOTES FOR JUNE

BEST WAY TO COOK RICE

The secret of boiling rice correctly is one
which is by no means always mastered by the
English cook. The Indian cooks method is
very simple The we!l-washed rice is dried in
a cloth and then strewed lightly into the fast
boiling slightly sailed water. When it begins
to swell a teacupfu of cold water is at hand to
dash in at the crucial moment This naturally
puts the water Off the boil, and when it bolls
up again another cupful is added, and another
until the rice is swelled and cracked. While
the grains still remain separate the water is
poured off and the rice is thrown into a colander
to dry in front of the fire.

BEAUTY WITHOUT COSMETICS

Therefore, to create physical beauty we must
begin with our thoughts Joy and trust, faith
in the good and hope for the future are liver
tonic, cure for dyspepsia and promoters Of
perfect circulation Unless the physical sys-
TEN functions in order, beauty or charm or
even modicum of good looks is impossible.
Clean blood means a skin well nourished, clear,
smooth, attractive. Food alone will not ac-
complish these results. The body and mind
must work together, each supplying its own
elements to the creation Of health and beauty.

HOUSEHOLD HELPS
Vegetables.

Housewives may say that vegetable do not replace
in the diet and that therefore, it is not fair to
spend the same sum of money vegetables as on
meat. There many vegetables which do serve as
meat equivalents. Even if you ate whole bunch of
asparagus or several servings of carrots you could
make up the slight deficiency in protein by table
spoon of peanut butter or Of cheese glass of milk
The thing for the TO do is TO think Of vege
tables not accessories but the important food OF
the meal, especially at this season. Meat will only
serve clog up the body to create feeling Of assi-
tude and make doctors bills.

Geo. ". Pritchard of Santa Fe
Delivers KeynOte Address to
Republican State COnUen-
tiOn; Promises Clean SUeep
(By Associated Pressl

SANTA FEE. N. NJ, March 27.-The
republican party Of New Mexico
through a keynote address delivered
today by George w. Prichard Of Santa
Fe. temporary chairman, to the state
republican convention meeting here to
name delegates at large to the national
convention, trained its havy artillery
on the record Of the democratic party.
Mr.. Pritchard criticized the democratic
record at home and abroad and urged
the delegates to work to elect a repub-
lican president of the United States so
that "order will be brought out of
chaos"
He promised that republican presi-
dent and a republican congress Twill
restore confidence; taxes will be re-
duced; the high cost of living will be
resumed and the countr ywill become
prosperous"
Paying tribute to General Leonard
Wood, Mr.. Pritchard said the general
is worthy Of wearing the mantle of
Lincoln and Of that long line of repub-
lican presidents who have contributed
so much to, and reflected so much
credit, honor and glory on our
country" az
The chairman described the treaty
Of peace with Germany as "the only
treaty or covenant so far as this gov
ernment is concerned, that was ever
planned and brought forth in a spirit
Of resentment, if not malice" He de-
clared "from the date of President
Wilson's second fruitless trip to Paris,
his relation TO that un-American docu-
ment has been peevish. spiteful and
vindictive."
Article 10 was called "a war measure
pure and simple, a pledge to furnish
