Swectbrea1s.

Sweetbreads are a delicious summer
meat, easy to digest and almost easier
to cat. While they are almost pro-
hibtive in price in some cities there
is practically no waste and they COM
bine marvelously with other food
stuffs. In country markets sweet
breads are very cheap usually.
OF course calves breads are the
most delicate and tender. But beef
breads have much the same flavor If
properly prepared and are cheaper.

let them stand in salt water till
clear. Change the water often. Or
dinarily the sweetbreads should re-

Boil calves sweetbreads 20 minutes
and beef breads from 80 to 40 min
utes. Drain and plunge into very
cold water. They are now ready to
put on ice until needed or prepare
in any way.
The simplest way to serve them is
broiled.

case that after the second batch has

NAVAL RADIOS MAKING MONEY
 FOR UNCLESAM
Tho Non Competitive With Private Firms,
 $300,000 Eearned
REACHES REMOTE POINTS
Remarkable Accomplish. ments in Rapid Trans
 mission

WASHINGTON, April 3. - While naval radio service avoids commercial broadcasting. so far as is possible, that business in 1922 brought return of nearly $300,OO0 to the Government, Rear Admiral Henry J. Ziegemeier, in charge of Naval communications, an nounced recently.
 Where commercial companies are able to handle the business the Navy adopts 'hands off" policy, but, it was pointed out, wherever emergency ex- ists, or it is possible for the Navy to cooperate with business men to ex- tend American trade, the Government is ready to be of service.
 Many of the commercial messages transmitted during the last year were from business men attempting to es- tablish trade connections by radio where commercial companies were un- able to reach.
 Remarkable feats in quick trans mission have been accomplished by the Navy Radio Service. On the oc- casion of big sporting event extra newspapers were circulated in Homo lulu 50 minutes after the end of the game. The story was flashed by the Naval radio. Three hours to get a message to Panama and answer back is a daily performance.
 Had the entire business of the bu- reau, which consisted of transmission of 16,OOO,OOO words, been based on the commercial rates the income would have been over $4,000,000, Admiral Ziegemeier said The bulk of trans mission was for the Government, for which no financial credit was given.
 Messages are daily exchanged by the Naval stations with practically every port in the world and with vessels in the seas of two hemi spheres.
 Admiral Ziegemeier said the use of wireless telephones is not yet extens l i've. He said these are in an expert mental stage and don't always give the best service. Some of the battle ships are fitted with these devices and an extension of the service is an ticipated as soon as nearer perfection is attained.

 WILL OPEN IN JUNE

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, April 3.-The Tel egraph CTS National Bank, which probably will open here about June 1, will be conducted along the lines Of the Locomotive Engineers Co-opera- tive National Bank of Cleveland, ac- cordng to E. J. Manion, President of the Order of Railroad Photographers, who will head the new institution. Organization of the bank, which will have a capital stock of $5OO,OO0 and a $100000 surplus, was author ized at session of the grand di- vision of the railroad telegraphers' union at Savannah, Ga., in May, 1921. The capital and surplus has been subscribed, Mr. Manion stated, and the majority of it by members of the union.
 Although the bank will be con trolled, no distinction is to be made in the list of depositors. The ac- counts of all persons will be solic- ited. l.. J. Ross, grand secretary and treasurer of the union, will be vice. president and cashier.
 Under the bylaws as adopted by the board of directors, limit of 10 per cent has been placed upon the dividends to be declared. Earnings above this, MT. ManiOn says, will go either to the surplus or be divided among the depositors as a bonus.
 The bank will become a member of the Federal Reserve System.
