Scandals About Heroes.

To the Editor The Washington Hersld:
You are without qeustion right In
that little scandals about the ma
tional heroes" do not belong in the
text books Of our schools: nor Is there
any need to lay stress on the faults
or foibles of these heroes so long
their infirmities had no positive e.
feet upon our history, but to paint
our great men as human beings in
our school histories cannot detract
from their greatness-such OF them
as were great. On the other hand.
to picture them as Olympian gods,
or even as being having less human
qualities than were ascribed TO
these. is a deliberate misrepresenta-
tion, and one which tends to render
history valueless and vile: value
less because when thus taught II
does not give the truth on which 10
base an unbiased viewpoint; vile,
because II is fiction while claiming
to be history.
To make fiction out Of history is
by no means American. The study
cf ciher nations histories, as writ
ten by and for such nations, makes
il clear that this national eXalta-
tion-this superman mania-is COM
mon to them ali. and to this veiy
exaltation Is due. in a large meas
ure, much Of rhe ill-feeling which

Even IL the whole truth were told

retain our national self-respect, and

our histories we should be Ameri-

usually less successful. The eggs
become cooked. Whether they are fit to eat is
another question. The fact remains they are
cooked without electricity, gas, coal wood They
are fried by heat derived directly from the sun.
Why, then, must Washington housewives waste
fuel or power in cooking dinner when they can
accomplish the result on their own stone
doorsteps? Because, of course, doorsteps form
good cookstoves only for hour selected
days. If this intense sunshine could be made
available every hour of every day in the year ct-
could laugh when coal prices went sky-high.
But it would be necessary to catch the sunshine
of clear days in midsummer and store it away for
chill winter weeks when the gray sky is hardly
discernible through drifting
Can this result be accomplished? Utilization
OF suDshine for cooking and heating purposes long
has been the goal of able experimenters Prob
ably the most successful of these is Dr. c. G.
Abbott, director of the astrophysical laboratory
of the Smithsonian Institution at Washington. DR..
Abbott is, perhaps, the greatest living authority
on matters pertaining to the He has turned
the dreams of his predecessors into something like
reates-that is he has been able to cook with
sunshine without especial regard to favorable con-
ditions. For farmers throug ghout large section
of the South and Southwest he has made possible
cookstove which will function most OF the
| time The result of his experiments holds forth
considerable hope for the future. He does not
claim to have solved the problem for city people.
They probably must worry along with coal and
gas for good many years yet. But during the
summer months, at least the wives of farmers from
Virginia to California are promised considerable
relief in the near future from the heat of summer
cooking.
When sunshine cooking becomes accom-
plished fact, as it seems about to be, it will mark
! a considerable step ahead in human progress. Its
results will not be confined the kitchen alone
although that which lghtens the work OF the
kitchen has no inconsderable importance in itself
for the betterment of the condition of humanity.
