toes in large quantities prefer old
stock. A waXy or sOggy potato Is also
undesirable for making chips. A va
riety should be selected that Is known
to be mealy when baked or boiled. The
raw flesh should be firm and crisp
when sliced. The size and shape Of
the potato do not affect the cooking
quality, but they influence the guam
tity and appearance of the chips.
Essentials for success.
When mechanical vegetable peeler
Is used, round potatoes are less waste
full than long ones. Deep eyes cause
waste, difficulty In pairing, and make
ragged-looking slices. A mechanical
slicer is preferable to knife slicing be-
cause it Is important TO have the chips
of uniform thinness, and each slice
evenly cut. Otherwise the chips cook
unevenly.
After n study of various practices
with regard to preparing and cooking
the sliced potatoes, 1t was found that
there was no apparent advantage in
the saltwater bath sometimes recon-
mended, nor In the extra work in
vOlved In hot-water bath followed
by drying between towels. Cutting the
potatoes into even thin slices with an
accurately adjusted vegetable slicer,
soaking them thoroughly in clear wa
ter after an initial bath of cold run
ming water, draining, and frying them
In a clean, high-grade fat at high
temperature were found to be essen
tials In producing crisp, high-quality
chips.
cottonseed Oil Is Best.
Many fats, including lard, lard and
suet mixture, lard-like vegetable fats
cOttonseed, corn. peanut and coconut
oils, were experimental with for fry
ing the chips. Olive oil was considered
too expensive for ordinary use and was
not tried. The most satisfactory me
dium was found to be high-grade cot
tonseed oil, which was clear, bland,
and practically havorless. Its initial
cost was lowest and there was a min
imum of waste in cooking. A cOmpar-
ison of chips fried in different fats
demonstrated Its superiority in be
havior during cooking and in the flavor
of the finished product.
The lard and the lard-suet mixture
impaired a flavor or after-taste that
was unpleasant to some people ana
left cloudy coating on the chips that
made them less attractive than chips
with the clear yellow-brown gloss re-
sulting from frying In oil. All the veg
etable oils and compounds were more
satisfactory than the animal fats. The
liquids were more convenient than the
semi-plastc compounds for use In
quantities. They were also less ex-
pensive and less wasteful. No fat with
a smoking point of less than 900 de-
grees G. (42S degrees F) is desirable
for frying potato chips. Overheated

SWEDENBORGIANS WILL RE-VAMP BIBLE; COST
 WILL EXCEED $5O.OOO

Urbana, O., Sept. 1s-A new trans lation of the Bible, including only the books which, in the opinion of Sweden borg, have an inner or symbolic mean Ing, will be undertaken at once by the New Church (Swedenborg) under -au- thority of a resolution adopted by the Church convention here
 The work, which has been in con compilation for more than forty years, Is made possible by the donation of sufficient funds by George Marchant, a wealthy member of the sect who re- sides in Brisbane, Australia.
 The task will require. from five to six years to compete, and its total cost is estimated at $5O,0OO, or more.
 We intend to produce a slightly more accurate and scientific transla- ion of the Bible, with all the aid which modern research can give" said Rev William L. Worcester, president nf the convention, in explaining the plan.
 ''The present Bible, while a very sincere and accurate translation, con- tains a number of words which were used because of literary style and which are not accurate synonyms of the original words"

COURT UPHOLDS EXPULSION OF
 GIRL SMOKER
Pretty Normal School Co., Ed Who Puffed Cigarettes Is Under Ban.

Detroit, Micf., Sept. 1s-Miss Alice Tanton, pretty, bobbed-haired co-ed, who was expelled from Ypsilanti Nor nal College along with nineteen other normal students, for alleged social indiscretions,' will carry her fight for reinstatement to the Supreme Court, her attorneys intimated, after reading a decision handed down by Judge George Sample, Wastenow damus, compelling the college author ities to show cause why she should not be reinStat ed.-T The Detroit girl was the only student to start legal action against the college.
 Judge Sample, in the decision deny ing her writ held the college authori- ties were within their rights in dis missing her.
 School Supported.
 "It seems to the Court" the de- cision read, beyond cavil or argu- ment that the faculty of the State Nor nal College, having been given author ity to conduct school, has undoubt- edly the right to make all reasonable rules and regulations concerning the conduct of those who are invited to attend the institution"
 The charge against Miss Tanton, made in the report of Dean Friday to President Mckinney. together with the statement that she had requested that the father withdraw the daughter from college was that the girl smoked of the fact that Miss Tanton had bobbed hair, but that part of the re- port had been 1aboriously erased. The teIl-taIe marks of the typewriter, however, showed plainly the original complaint.

 Girty. who lived among the Indians practically his entire life, made an eloquent plea to save the life of the white trader, which so impressed the savages that they gave Kenton an es- cort to Sandusky, from which point he reached the civilization of his day at Detroit, then little more than a fort and trading post.

It is an opportunity that will never come to them again and it seems a pity that all who desire to do so should not get tho chance to try and win. There is no limit to the number of delegates chosen. It all depends upon the sup port the city will give the election.
 A special to The Times report the first of the second series of Good Will Elections has just been finished in Grand Rapids, Mich, having elect ed seven delegates from that city. The popula ton of Grand Rapids is lower than Bridgeport so we are in hopes that the Park City will uphold the standing which New England made in the first election and elect at least three delegates.

"Sought Publicity

The Court found that after Miss Tanton had been denied readmission to the college she and her relatives had sought publicity through the newspapers of Detroit and elsewhere
 At another place in the decision this statement is made: '"The Court finds by preponderance of evidence that Miss Tanton was a girl addicted to smoking before she entered the Nor maj College and finds that there were other acts of indiscretion involving breaches of propriety, such as trips in closed automobiles, where she admit ted that she was sitting on the lap of 8 young man for many hours, riding in and around Ypsilanti, and she was unable to tell how late she arrived at the rooming house. The Court further finds that she was guilty of smoking in the public streets of Ypsilanti and that the automobile in which she was sitting while smoking was driven to a place where she would be partly secluded and unobserved, but that in this case she was discovered smoking ciga aretteS.''

Caddies Strike; Ask
 "Living Wages, Too;
 Have to Buy "Pants"

Punxsutawney, Pa. Sept. 1S.-The high cost of living goes hand in hand with the expense of golf. Caddies at the Punxsutawney Country Club are on strike for higher wages. One of the boys writes thus:
 we caddies are on strike. We are union caddies and have to eat and sleep same as other people, and we can't do it at twenty-five cents round. The reason golfers are sore is because caddies try to get a man who will pay more than quarter for two rounds.
 There is a number of caddies in our bunch that has to wear pants, and we can't buy pair a season by only making twenty-five cents a day.
 we don't think a little bit more money would hurt some of the fel- lows who charge so dang much for the pants either."

Death Lure
 Over Phone
 New Theory
,d fror, papn OnaN

(Continu.d from Page One.) miles from New Brunswick where the two bodies were found Saturday morning, both shot through the head.
 Robbery Motive Discounted.
 Although the clergymans pockets were rified the police do not think robbery was the motive. They are working upon the theory flat jealousy led to the crime.
 The fragments of torn letters found beside the bodies have been piecad together. They were evidently written by Mrs. Mills to her husband.
 From what they have learned, tho police and detectives are convinc- ed that MT. Hall and Mrs. Mills had carried on c1and estine affair to- gether for some time. For time the theory of blackmail was advanced and this has not yet been entirely discarded
 However. there were no signs of a struggle where the bodies were found. This opened up two avenues of conjecture; either that the murder CT crept up from behind and fired, or else that this person was known to both and fired unexpectedly whi.e In conversation with them. The clergyman was shot from behind.
 It developed that the church of St. John the Evangelist has been paying bills incurred by Mrs. Mills while a patient in the Midd1esex hospital here last winter. When Dr. Hall left his home last Thursday it was understood by his wife that he was gong 10 the vestry to look over some bills that had been sent from the hospital.
 The operation was of such a serious nature that Mrs. Mills gave instruct ions for the disposition of her body in the event she succufnbed. These instructions will be followed at her funeral.
 Through her lawyer, State Senator Edwin w. Florence, Mrs. Hall said she had said she had every confidence in her husband and did not know that he had a single enemy in the world.
 Mrs Hall is on the verge of col lapse from shock, grief and worry.
 Bishop Albion Knight of Trenton, occupied the vacant pulpit of the church of St. John the Evangelist on Sunday and made a powerful plea in expiation of Human Frailty.'

Detroit, Sept 1S-An industrial army of more than 100000 today en- tered upon a period of idleness, and the mammoth Ford Motor company plants were deserted, except for care takers, for the first time in months.
 As many of the idle factory work CTS were seeking new jobs. Henry Ford renewed his efforts to solve his fuel problem. His task, ihe main tained, was to obtain fuel at what he considered reasonable price. TO accept coal at prices quoted him, MT Ford previously had declaned would be "submission to profiteers."
 No statement had been made by the manufacturer today as to the probable duration of the suspension of work at his plant, but Edsel B. Ford, presl- dent of the company, voiced the hope that a way out of the fuel difficulty might en.-he- found. ---.---
