BALTIMORE, Aug. s.-Reaitors
Of Baltimore are profoundly irri-

ieet is TO tach boys and girls how

real estate board said that IL the

ment-house methods in their
younger life they would insist upon
living in apartments after they were
married. He said the generation
Of today should be taught TO looI,

would have their own home, The

thorities in teaching girlss apart-
ment-house ideas takes away all

Il am strongly opposed 70 teach
ing apartment-hOuse methods
said Mr.. Pitt, in the public
schools of the city. High school
pupils should be taught individual
home methods instead Of how 20

latter are all right. They answer
their purposs, but people should
be educated to look forward to the
day when they own their own
homes.

Roster.

The campaign for the new mem
bers inaugurated by the District

splendid progress, according to
Clifford Bangs. The committee
held two meetings and a compete
systematic outline of work was
adopted. Each member was sup
piled with copies Of the booklet re-

supply of application blanks. This
booklet explains the aims and pur-

Advantages to Statesmen.
John A. Petty. executive secre-
tary. has been visiting the larger
offices where statesmen meetings
are held and pointed out the ad-
vantages offered statesmen as asso-
ciate members Of the board.
Chairman Bangs further reports
that practically the entire member
ship have signed a renewal. which
indicates that the recent reorgani-
zation met with the approval of the
entire former board. From present
indications it is stated that the
campaign will produce twenty five
additional real estate offices as ao-
tive members and approximately
three hundred new associate mem
bers. divided between salesmen. af-
filiated businesses and property
owners. Soliciting of new members
will cease at the close of the pres

Worst of Industrial
Depression is Over

The country has turned the corner
of the industrial depression, Herbert
Hoover, secretary of commerce, said
in Washington yesterday. With labor
improving in efficiency, farmers put
ting in more work than for decade,
and over speculation and wasteful-
ness checked, the turn toward good
times has been made, he said.
Secretary Hoover spoke twice, his
principal address being at the Ma
tional Shoe and Leather Exposition
and Style Show. He prefaced this
set speech with impromptu remarks
at a luncheon rendered him by
Mayor Peters. In his longer address
he said there was evidence ON every
side that the vast majority of the
nation was making again an effort
toward return to the primary virtues
of hard, conscientious toll and econ
omy in living equalled only by the
wartime effort of 1918.
In his luncheon address Secretary
Hoover said:
Business depression has been due
to reversal of the great forces that
we're at work during the war. We
have turned the corner, however, be-
cause we have given up speculation
and wastefulness and our people are
gaining more efficiency and interest
in their work. We had lost much Of
our war efficiency and interest in

Keeping Cool a Matter
Of Simple Principles

Keeping cool in summer is largely
a matter of observing few simple
principles in everyday life, accord
ing to specialists in the home eco
Monies department of the College of
Agriculture. A sound minded, we'll
nourished, sensibly-clothed person
will not suffer much from the heat,
the specialists state. On the other
hand persons who eat heartily of
winter foods, who get less than eight
hours Of sleep out Of every "a, and
who wear badly fitting shoes for in
stance are liable to heat prostra-
ton.
"The housewife should take adj
vantage Of the opportunity which
presents itself during the summer
months of training her family in
health and food habits. 1t is no
trouble to get children or adults to
take cold baths during the summer
and once started this good habit is
apt to be continued. Fruits and veg
etables are never so well received as
during their own season while tea
and coffee can be replaced daily by
the more refreshing cool fruit drinks.
ut is unnecessary for any house
wife who is willing to plan out her
work to spend long hours in hot
kitchen. Except in the houses where
there are a number of men doing
manual labor, and requiring heavy
food, the cooking for the day can
be done in the early morning. In
summer the protein requirements of
the diet should be filled by eggs,
milk, fish, fowl and cheese, instead
of by heavier meats. Vegetables,
particularly the succulent ones,
many of which can be eaten raw,
should be used in abundance. Fruits
and berries should appear as such,
not combined with rich pastries. In
canning by the cold pack process,
much of the heat and worry of can
ming is eliminated.
"The dining room should lose all
Of its unnecessary draparies and
brio brac, in order that busting
may be reduced to a minimum. Very
attractive stenciled oil cloth doilies
and paper napkins not only will
make the table look and feel much
cooler, but also will save heavy
washing and ironing. All heavy rugs
should be removed in the summer.
Heavy upholstered furniture should
be covered with cool-colored chintz.
1t is well to close the windows at s
o'clock and pull down the shades to
keep out the sun and hot wind. When
windows are opened at five o'clock,
or thereabouts the house is cool and
comfortable for the evening.
"Clothing worn in the summer
should be light colored and loose fit
ting. Shoes should be given partic-
ular attention. They should have a
broad, low heel, straight inner line
and should be of kid, rather than Of
canvas or heavier leather.
"During the summer a great many
people make the mistake of eating
too many frozen foods and too many
iced drinks. These iced foods, if
taken into the body to any extent
retard the work of the digestive

MARYs TROUBLES


Mary had swarm of bees,

They, too, loved their Mary, 'caus
Their Mary had the hives.
Mary wore two silken sox,
Rolled down below her knees;
But Mary once had chicken-pox,
Which spoiled the scenery.
Mary had little laugh,
Which sounded like a giggle;
1t followed her most everywhere,
And kept her al a-wiggle.
Mary has a little lamp,
She has it trained, no doubt;
For every time I call on her,
The little lamp goes out.

Where nature made it grow;
But everywhere the fashion went
The waist was sure to 60.
