CORNELES HOTEL COURSE.
University to Turn Out Future Boni
faces and Chefs.

According TO Cornelius Bettcn, vice
dean of resident instruction. agricultural
experiment station, Cornell university
in the current issue of the Hotel Man
agemcnt Magazine, the course in hotel
training for which the New York Statc
Hotel Mems association has been agi-
tating for some time, will start this fall
at Cornell university.
Dean Bctten said that the hotel bust
ness II today becoming so complex that
IL is impossible for the manager to be-
skilled in every phase of the work in his
organization. and although it is mani
testify absurd 70 expect college course
to turn out men who upon graduation
viii be competent to manage hotels,
still the course can be- made to give the
student q knowledge of the fundamental
principles underlying hotel management
and u background that will permit him
to judge the standards on which the vari-
oys hotel departments should be main
tanned.
Furthermore, it will not be the pur.
pose of the course to turn out expert
enced chefs. stewards. accountants or no.
tel engineers but it is we'll within the
range of possibility to teach the stu.
dents ia think clearly in terms of the
practice and problems with which these
professions must deal. Some of the sub
jccts. for example. which will be taken
up IN the Tour years of training will be
chemistry, economies. physics, mcchan
les, foods. textiles and institution man
agcmcnt
During the summer months, when the
college is not in session, students will
be employed in hotels so as to be giver
an opportunity to supplement their theo
+ rctical college training with practical
t:rst-hand experience.
1t naturally will be n few years be

THE CIIILD'S FOOD.
A Schedule Of ii Points Prepared for
the Proper Feeding of Children.

The New York Nutrition council has
prepared schedule of Ia points in the
proper feeding of children which are
worth cutting out and hanging in the
kitchen. Summed up briefly, they OK
press the needs of each child as follows:
l. Fresh. clean, whole milk should be
the basis of daily diet. well Child
needs at least a pint, an undernourished
child must have quart
2. At least two vegetables day,
only one being potatoes; leaf vegetables
at least three times week.
3. Fruit every day, or third vege-
table. Dried fruits are valuable.
4. Meat only once day.
D. Cereals daily, served with milk.
G. About thrcc-quarters of pound
of fat per week. and not more than a
pound of sugar.
7. No tea, coffee. alcoholic drinks or
fried foods except bacon.
8. Plenty of water between meals
and a little with meals.
8. Good hot breakfast every morn
ing, or no school
10. Good, hot luncheon. with soup,
cocoa or hot vegetable dish.
II. Between-meal lunches only when
meals are five or six hours apart.
II. No candy or other sweets before
meals; II little after an occasional meal.
10. Plenty of bulky and vegetable
food. such as whole wheat. fruits and
fresh vegetables. These take the place
of medicine.
a. Restful and cheerful mealtime.
The last point is particularly well
taken. Good manners can be taught
| without nagging and uncheerful subjects
can be disposed of at other times if they
have to be handled at all. The quiet and
pleasant evening meal is what knits the
| family together.
All these points take care and thought
| fulness on the part of the mother.
But care and thOughtfulness are work
| not trouble. Sick or fretty children are
! Just as much work, and they are trouble
besides. 1t pays TO keep a family well
| and happy

Star Island Dedicated to Religion.

Star island one of the Isles of Shoals,
10 miles off the mainland of New Hamp-
shire, has been dedicated exclusively to
religious service for 40 years, says the
October Popular Mechanics Magazine i'll
an illustrated article. On its rocky sum-
nit is small gray-stone church which
was built in the year 1900. This has
been used ever since A place of wor-
ship, first by fshermen's mothers, sisters
and sweethearts, who prayed for the safe
return of their loved ones. During the
last 20 years, it has been a shrine for
Unitarians and Congregationalists. AT
10 o'clock each night, long lines of men
and women, carrying small lanterns,
wend their way thither and, a churchful
at time. hang their lanterns on the
walls, and bow their heads in prayer or

FINDS PIPE SHRINE HOUSE.
DR.. Fewkes Unearths Prehistoric Ruin
In Mesa Verde National Park.

DR.. ]. Walter Fewkes, chief of the bu-
reau of American cthnology, Smithson-
ian Institution, who has recently re-
turned from season of archaeological
ficld-work on the Mesa Verde National
Park. Colorado, reports the unexpected
unearthing of most interesting and in
structivc prehistoric ruin to which he
has given the name pipe Scbrinc
House." because Of the large number of
tobacco pipes which We're found scat
tered in circular shrine just as they
had been thrown there during ceremonial
rites, untold centuries ago.
Mesa Verde Park was reserved from
settlement some years ago by congress
on account of the numerous cliff dwell
inga in its canyon, but later il was dis
covered that there were az many pueblos
on the open top of the mesa as in the
cliffs. These have Jared badly from the
elements, on account of exposure, and
are now REDUCED TO mounds without walls
above ground.
For some years DIR. Fewkes has been
active In unearthing and clearing out
these souvenirs of our precursors on the
western plains of the continent. and it
has been through his efforts mainly that
the ruins have been preserved. Exca-
waiting several of the mounds that were
taken to no natural formations it was
found that they We're in reality the
Wondering heaps of fallen houses and
temples.
Last May DR.. Fewkcs undertook the
excavation of mound in the neighbor-
hood of what is known to many motor
tourists as Mummy lake. The results
of his excavations were as instructive as
interesting and unexpected.
Out of the mound emerged rectan-
gular building about 20 feet square and
onc story high. accurately oriented ia
the cardinal points of the compass. with

high. like a church steeple. midway in

In the middle Of this building wa,

WORLDS TALLEST MAN.
KazanlOn, o Feet Inches, Specimen
of Gland Activity.

The Siberian giant Kazanloff, re-
Gently exhibited in Hungary as the larg-
est man alive, is described in the journal
of the American Medical association.
He is "a years of age, his height is
nine feet three inches and he is built in
proportion to his height. Thus his hand
is one foot one inch from finger tip to
wrist; his foot is one foot nine inches
long; his chest measurement is SO

20 inches and his weight is 45S pounds.
TO support this huge frame, he eats an
amount that would satisfy four others of
good appetite. In four meals in the
course. OF the day he consumes four or
five pints of milk, IL to 20 eggs, three
or four pounds of meat. five or six loaves
of bread. large quantities of potatoes,
beans and other vegetables, two or three
liters of wine and five or six litcrs of
beer.
These quantities appear to be well at
tested, as do the measurements of his
proportions; but the fact that arrests
attention particularly in the accounts of
amount of sleep that he needs. Nor
mally he passes large portion of the
day in slumber, and he has been known
to sleep for 24 hours on end. Even
