GIRLHOOD STORIES
OF FAMOUS WOMEN
Queen Victoria

Little Princess Victoria loved to
ride with her nurse through the
streets of London and to look at
the beautiful dolls in the shop
keepers windows.
One day she saw an unusually
pretty doll. She wanted it so
badly, but she had spent all of her
allowance, and knew it would do no
good to tease for more money.
She must have that doll, though.
SO into the shop she went and
smiled so sweetly at the shop
keeper that he promised to keep
it for her until she could save
enough pennies to buy it.
When Victoria grew up and be-
came Queen of England she loved
her subjects even more than she
had loved hr dolls WIN sh was a
little girl. Her people loved her,
Loi. She had a long and happy
reign.

something about cooking along the

helping with the "Camp Cookery

tourists along her route and finds

then writes and tells US all about

From somewhere in Missouri
she writes about another way Of
cooking fish for the fish dinner al
ready given Some folks who had
a camp along a river invited her
to stay to dinner with them. They
had just caught some trout and fish
was to be the main part of the
meal.
First they cleaned the fish thor
oughly. Then they dug up some
clay nearby and covered the fish
all over with a coating of this clay
They had carefully built good
fire and waited until they had a
lot of glowing Goals. In these Goals
they placed the fish and there they
left them until the clay was baked
hard.
Then out Of the fire they took
the clay covered fish and removed
the clay. The fish were seasoned |
with salt and pepper and melted
butter. With them they served
potatoes baked In the Goals around |
the edges of the campfire. Alwen |
says she never ate such delicious

mush SO they would have it ready
to fry and serve with maple syrup,

For the four of them. they used
one rounded tablespoonful of salt,
one quart of yellow cornmeaI. and
four quarts of water They put the
water in pot over the fire and
waited until it was boiling hard.
They mixed the meal with enough
cold water to make a thick batter,
but not enough to make it lumpy
Then spoonfuls of meal were
dropped into the boiling water
so the water would not
stop boiling When all the meal
was in, it was stirred steadily for

THE SWIMMING CLASS-Lesson I

learned separately and then COM
bined.
Start with the leg movement.
Stand with your heels together
and your hands on your hips. Lift
your right leg up, with your knee
pointing out the side, until the
heel almost touches the left knee.
kick out the right leg, until it is
straight. The right foot should be
about twenty-four inches from the
left. Bring the foot down to the
starting position using a quick
smart motion. Repeat this action
with left leg.
Learn the arm stroke next
Stand with your feet together.
Place your hands, palms down and
fingers pointing forward, before
your chest about ten inches below
your chin. Hold the fingers OF
each hand close together.
Move your hands forward until
your arms are extended ahead full
length. Then, when you have
reached out as far as possible, turn
the palms outward, and with your
thumbs pointing toward the ground,
describe a quarter circle with each
arm, bringing the arms stiffly back
until they extend at right angles
to your body from your shoulders.
bend the elbows slowly, bringing
your hands back to the starting DO
sition. AS You do, turn your hands
so that the palms again are toward
the ground.
The third thing to learn is the
breathing.
Breathe smoothly and easily, not
jerkily. Inhale through the mouth
and exhale through the nose. Ex-
hale as your arms shoot forward

OUT III 'front.' OF you, Bring them
back in the quarter circles, at the
same time taking deep breath.
AS your hands come to the chest
position, raise your right leg. Start
your hands forward, at the same
time Strengthening out the right
leg. When the arms are almost
fully extended to the front, bring
your right foot down to the ground
with considerable force. When
the hands again reach the chest,
raise the left leg, and so on, using
one leg and then the other for each
stroke.

gates under the late Col. John Bell
Bigger. then under Col John W.
Williams and later assistant to Col.

died this morning in his apartments
in Murphy's Hotel.
News of the death of Mr.. Bren-
amsn. who was well and widely
known to his hundreds of friends
as Jake" Brenaman. will cause
little surprise. He had been in
poor health for several years. due
to a heart trouble and attendant
complications. He was IS years
old, a native of Shenandoah
County. but had made his home
here for the last 30 years or more.
Up to five or six years ago. when
his health began to fail. there were
Few men who were more active in

been painting for breath. But in

Through that opening saw a real

Wireless Phone
Is 20 Years Old
First Message Transmitted
Two Miles By Runner
Near Berlin.

Though wireless telephony is
thought to be a comparatively new
science, it was over twenty years
ago that the first wireless telephone
message was transmitted over a
distance of two miles by Ruhmer on
the Wansee River, near Berlin.
This first message was transmit
ted by means of light waves. A
speaking arc lamp was actuated by
a microphone. the speech con-
trolled the intensity of the light.
Similar to the focusing of search
light beams. rays from the arc
were focused on selenium re
ceiver. The voice messages thus
transmitted were clearly audible.
Not until the advent of the
vacuum tune transmitter. however.
was wireless telephony as developed
during the present age practicable.
For several years there was a COM
plete lapse of any radio telephone
activity except for experimental
purposes.
