have heard the ceremony read and
participated in it with any spirit of

becoming man and wife.

tools is one of the unique signs OF
spring now appearing in the Swed-

grows his own flowers and vegc-
tables. and finds a retreat from the
factories and city streets.
The 1000 colonists are grouped
into fifty different garden sections
an the outskirts of the city. and the
administrative work is in the hands
of cooperative garden societies. The
plots of ground worked by individ-
uals vary in size from 1900 to $500
square feet, and the rentals range
from $3.50 to SIS for the sea
son. Greens. vegetables, straw
berries. and various other garden
products are raised, enough to sup
ply the workers own table and 10
yield him a small profit beside.

France Plans Great
Electric Development
In Devastated Region

PARIS, June 9.-Electrification in
France, held back by the war, it's
devastation and the upward swing
OF prices, is now being furthered in
many ways by the government, and
within a few years many preten-
tlous plans should be completed.
The greatest progress is being
made in the devastated regions, for
there villages and towns must be
built from the ground up and an
electric installation frequently pre-
cedes gas. The government, in re-
imbursing owners for destroyed fac
tories, urged from the first that
manufacturers motorize their plants.
Water-power development in the
southeastern mountainous region is
well under way, and power soon will
be available for the first stretches
of electrified railroads. In Brit
tany, on the Atlantic coast, the tide
as a source of power soon will be
tested in an experimental install
lation.
Electric appliances for cooking and
cleaning, which came formerly al.
most entirely from America and
Italy, are now being made in France.
Electric stoves recently appeared,
but the French cook still sticks to
her hard coal stove.
