ELECTRICITY BRINGS
NEW HOUSE DEVICES
Visit to Light Shops Will Prove
Feasibility of Attachments
In Any Home.

great variety of electrical de-
vices which add immeasurably to
the convenience OF the home are now
TO be had. many of which can be
installed with no trouble at all. others
with very little trouble. Some of
them make II possible to remedy de-
hciencies In houses that were wired
with no thought of using electricity
tor anything but lighting, and hence
which are not equipped for the great
variety of electrical appliances that
are coming into such general use.
An example of the latter Is the
double duty socket which, as it's
name implies, doubles the capacity OF
an electric light socket. Many
housewife has to do the ironing by
daylight because there is but one
socket in the kitchen. and II 10 a
choice between using II for the iron
or for the light. The double duty
socket makes II possible to attach q
light and the iron to the socket at
the same time. and since this double
duty socket attaches to the lamp
socket. 1t is as easily attached a.
lamp. This same device makes II
possible to attach both q toaster or
other table device, and a light. to
the electric light socket above the
dining table.
No longer need there be any fun
Ing and fretting because the dry cells
that operate the door bell have be-
come exhausted and the hell does not
ring. bell-ringing transformer
that takes current for the bell circuit
from the electric light circuit is avail
able. which does away with this an
noyance.
A decidedly useful device is the All
Mite Lite. a lamp equipped with q
special transformer, which may be
left burning all night at an expense
OF something like ten cents a month.
1t fs valuable as q means of discour-
aging visits from burglars, and de-
cidedly useful in cases OF illness. On
the porch, placed over the house num-
Der. In the Railways. or elsewhere,
this little light adds immensely to
the convenience OF the home.
So the list Of conveniences of this
kind might be continued Indefinitely.
A visit to an electrical store and
talk with a dealer will astonish the
householder who has not informed
himself on the subject of what may
be done along this line at a small
cost He will be surprised at the
extent to which he may make his
home a house electrical by the out
lay of a comparatively small sum.

AMERICA MUST INVEST
ABROAD TO HELP NATIONS

San Francisco, Cal, June 15.-
Americans must make permanent
investments abroad to help foreign
nations pay their debts to the United
States. Henry M. Robinson, Los An.
geles banker and recognized as one
Of the foremost authorities in inter-
national finances, declared in an
address here today at the conven-
tion Of the National Association of
Credit Men.
''If we invest our money abroad
and, with the investments, aid in
building up the productivity of the
debtor nations, there will be no
need for foreign debt cancellations
Mr.. Robinson said. Investments
should be made in actual physical
property or in the securities of the
other nations, he added.
If we are the partners of other
nations in thier enterprises, through
the investment of our surplus gold
abroad, the suspicious of information
Il bitterness will disappear, and in
:arrying out this duty of enlightened
ielfishness, we will create organiza-
ions and establish a personnel that
yill act in accordance with the at
itude, practices, traditions and pre-
iudices of the nations with which
re DEAL" he continued.
II do not hare to point out to
redit men there is a psychological
feeling on the part of a debtor to
reditor which tends toward the de-
'elopment of animosities and one of
he results of the transfer to us OF
he power that lies in the hand of a
reditor nation :: has created an ami
aosity and a bitterness toward us
m the part of other. nations which
in excess of our just deserts, even
lough we admit that, because of
,ur rigidity and inexperience we are
.omewhat lacking in an ability to
Understand the problems of other ma
ionals
1T is therefore most desirable
lat We so conduct ourselves that we
lay greatly modify this feeling OF
dislike and animosity. This is partic-
ilarly necessary if we are to continue
| in commercial relations with the
| est of the world
