Believes Cannibals Got
Strength By Eating
Their Enemies

NEW YORK, July 14.-Can-
nibals may be correct in their
theory that they gain their enc
mics strength by eating them,
according to DIR. William Held,
OF Chicago, who sailed for Ger
many to obtain a chimpanzee
upon which to conduct rejuven-
alton experiments.
Perhaps these ancient and
primitive people," he said, chit
upon a great scientific truth.
FOR instance, take the adrenal
glands, which are, the glands of
courage. Doctors are using
this fluid from sheep as a heart
stlmulant and in some instances
babies and human beings whose
vitality has been suspended,
have been brought back to life. {"
"One Of my clients in Chi
cago who has been taking the
glandular injections and whose
hair was white, has a head of
hair that since has darkened.
But as soon as he began to feel
vigorous, he made the mistake
Of trying to be a youth again"

at the entertainment which was
known as "Ohio Night" The con-

Recent developments in the ad-
ministration of State real estate
license laws and other related sub
jects were discussed at meeting
of State real estate commissioners
presided over by Joseph K. Britain,
Of Chicago. Representatives of ten
States were present. An explana-
ton Of the laws of Colorado, New
Jersey, Tennessee and Illinois was
made by Nathan William MacChes-
ney, of Chicago, general counsel
for the national association. Mr..
MacChesney sounded a warning
against a tendency manifested in
few places tc amend existing
| laws IN such way as to be out of
harmony with the expressions Of the
| Supreme Court of the United States
recently in sustaining the consti.

He cautioned the real estate in

license laws because of the protec-

SCREEN ADVICE
IS GIVEN BY
EXPERTS
Finds Home Owners Usually
Pay Little Attention to
Pest Guardians.
By HERMAN L. ROSENBERG.


The average home builder gives
little attention to his window
screens. .:
Yet they constitute the most Inn
portant element of protection, in
addition to the comfort of his
home.
To the INITIATED, window screens
are probably just screens. yet they
manship and materials as any
other item which enters into the
construction of building.
Being such a small item, few
people specify the kind of screens
they want used.
AS a consequence, it is common
practice for carpenters and con-
tractors to make the window
screens on the job.
Yet it should be perfectly obvious
that such handmade screens will
not have the durability or the finish
of the high-grade factory made
product. though q great deal more
is spent on the hand work.
Durability Important.
AS one studies the window screen
with a view 20 getting the utmost
in value, ones attention Is netu; al
" directed toward their durability.
The window screen must stand the
:ull shock of the suns rays, 1t must
he made of. material that will not
warp, shrink, crack or swell.
For this reason the higher quality
screens are now being made Of Cali.
fornia sugar pine.
So widely has been the acceptance
of this material that you will find
the better class window screens all
over the United States are coming
to be made of this timber, OF which
over 80 per cent of the entire
visible supply is contained within
the confines of the State of Cali
fornia.
The next thing to consider is the
type Of wire cloth used, the screen
itself.
On cheap dwellings,, not infre.
quently black wire cloth is used.
Occasionally it is painted.
This has the disadvantage that It
rusts out quickly, and If painted the
openings soon fill up and the
amount OF light and air admitted
is greatly diminished.
1t is preferable to use a. high
grade wire cloth that has been
properly galvanized, and If the
house to be erected is at, or near,
the beach, then some Of the bronze
or rust and corrosion.alloys should
be used.
Construction of Screen.
Having decided on our material,
the method of their putting to-
gether should be considered.
Formerly screens were put to-
gether with dowel pins; that is, con-
cealed wooden pins, but careful
study has revealed that the NOR
tise construction as specified by
the United States Government for
all their buildings is the most en-
during.
On a high quality screen this type
Of construction will be used and an
absolutely waterproof glue used
with the binder, thus eliminating
the use of nails.
Likewise, the screen cloth or wire
will be placed on the finished
frame by machinery specially de.
signed to insure it's laying smooth
and under even tension from all d.
rections.
This is not practical to do in all
hand construction.
On the better type Of screens this
wire will be held in position by be-
ing rolled into a small groove or de-
preston under the molding, avoid
ing the use of tacks.
This has two advantages. When
it becomes necessary to re-screen
the frame there areS no large tacks

REFUSE WAGON
DRIVERS GET
MORE PAY
Are Given Raise Of is Cents a
Day tabIemen Also Bene-
fit by Order.

Stablemen and drivers in the
refuse department of the District
have been given increased pay.
Their wages have been boosted from
$2.S8 to $S.04 a day. Morris Hacker,
superintendent of city refuse, said
today.
Many of these men are members
of the City Employees Association,
which organization met last night
to consider wholesale resignation OF
employees because of the refusal of
District officials to boost the pay
of workers.
The parade attracted so many
members of the association, Presi-
dent Frank J. Bresnahan said to-
day, that only a few members at
tended. 1t was decided to post
pone action until June 81.
The action of Superintendent
Hacker, it was said today, may
have some effect on the sentiment
in the association.
The raise in pay affects about
fifty men. The boost was made By
superintendent Hacker and not by
the District Wage Board. District
officials have refused to call the
board together to consider pay
raises for laborers and mechanics.
Hackers pay boost was a discre-
ttonary one.

ST. LOUIS TO INSTALL
A NEW LIGHT SYSTEM

st. Louis has, just passed an
$4,000, 900 bond issue Most Of this
money will go toward uniform city
electric illumination. The design OF
the lamp standard to be used
throughout the streets has been
selected, and a new wiring i1stalla-
ton will be laid Immediately for
about 10000 of them. The type
OF lamp and post has been used
successfully on several of the bet
ter-lighted streets of the city. The
unit consists or a post and foun-
dation OF concrete with red granite
coloring and a glass and copper
fixture for the light. The globe is
made of thirty-two small squares
of prismatic glass.
The change from the usual large
glass globe now used il expected
to reduce the breakage cost, which
has averaged $1,000 annually, ac-
cording to city books.

j. s. To DOUBLE
ELECTRIC USE
BY 1880
Huge Growth Predicted by
Executive of Leading
Supply Company.

That the world in general Is wax
ing up to not only the Importance
hut the need of doing it electrically"
b indisputably proved by state
ment made by an executive of one of
the largest electrical companies, who
says that by 1890 the present cleo
trical supply will be doubled.
When it is considered that electric
service. at best, is only forty years
old and that it is believed that be-
tween 1923 and 1930--that is, within
q period of seven years-the electri
cal supply will have to be double
what it is today. this means that the
Industry will be called upon to Gre
ate. within seven years, as much as
IL has created SO far during it's en-
tire history.
According to one authority, one Of
the established facts is that "the
United States can use to advantage
practically all the electric energy
that can be generated within its
borders"
The superiority of electricity for
lighting; for driving industrial and
mining machinery; for producing
heat for industrial processes; for the
manufacture Of many chemical COM
pounds such as abrasives and fertil-
izers; for supplying power. on the
farm; for cooking. heating and oper-
Gting a variety of labor-saving de-
vices in the home and for every
form of transportation-the superb
ority of, electricity for performing all
these tasks is recognized.
Therefore the use of electricity in
America isN tlimited only by the
amount of power that can be gen.
Grated and as our natural resources
will here stand us in good stead, this
generation and the next need have
no fear as to the giving out'of cleo.
tricity. But there is a big job ahead
Just the same. The increased de-
mand means that a truly vast
amount of electrical energy must be-
generated for consumption. Elec-
tricity is like thoroughbred in that
It must be harnessed before it Is fit
for use.
So here is where we look hope
fully toward electric light and power
companies, both those already in
existence and others as yet unborn
