RALMY CLIMATE
 OF CUBAN ISLE
 BOOSTING TRIP
Arty To Forsake Bir- mingham And Cold For
 South Sea Tour

While the major portion of Birming- 9 ham is enduring rain and cold with the tsclement variations which characterize December weather, a small percentage, sne-half of 1 per cent to get the figure approximately exact, are to be in the 3blamy climate typical of the southern seas.
 The Birmingham Boosters Cuban trip, which directors plan to make an annual excursion for business leaders and their families, have been selected ito fit between the dates of December g and 10. During this period" to quote the official prospectus, Havana and the gulf afford temperatures com parable with Birmingham in May or June. Bring along plenty of light, airy garments. You'll need them"
 The real import of this warning can not best be realized at this time, and because of the pleasant weather and high temperatures Birmingham is now si experiencing, the chamber of commerce and others who are supporting the pro- posed tour are having some trouble in stirring up the proper pitch of en- T thusiasm. The bureau has collected promises galore, but so far only about Sz half of the necessary reservations have been turned in.
 Saturdal, the promoters of the tour be- gan a final ten-day campaign to sign the remaining numbers of the party. Officials believe that with a touch of cold weather the quota will easily be reached, but whether or not the climate changes, some intensive work is in store B en the proposition before the dead-line.

 Three decks, cabin, promenade and middle deck are offered on the ship. The promenade deck will probably be the most popular of the three since 1t is here that the games and dances are to be staged. The time of the passage, AS hours, will give ample time for the party to become well acquainted and form plans for their stay in Havana. sa Meals will be served ala carte on the boat with a dining room featuring ln- dividual tables. An excellent music, recreation, reading and smoking room, which is expected to prove particularly popular with some of the members on board, is included on the ship. A wire less will keep the party in touch with athe shore.
 sel According to plans the ship will leave New Orleans at Il o'clock the morn ing of December and arrive in Ha- vana Decent at o'clock in the morning. During the stay in Havana a whirlwind tour of the points of in- terest is planned. Some of these are Morro Castle, running races at Oriental par, national Jaiali game, the Casino, tHavana at Night" which the prospec- tus says "out does Paris, itself"
 The Birmingham Boosters Tour is similar to those which will be held by the St. Louis, west Texas, Memphis | Chamber of Commerce, National Asso- citation of Real Estate boards, and simi- hr bodies this year.

WHY BIRMINGHAM
 SHOULD SUPPORT COMMUNITY CHEST
R. P. MCGOWAN President Ciyitan Club

IF every needy family would re-
 ceive "direcr aid from some
 friend there would be little need of organized welfare work. Such is the case in real small communities. In a city, like Birmingham, however, the well-to-do people do not live in the same neighborhood as the needy 1; they do not see their need and hear their cry for help, and organized philanthropy becomes necessary. The Community Chest supplies funds to philanthropies which aid in charac- ter budding among boys and girls, young smen and women, and which helps thousands of sick, injured, abused, neglected, poor and needy whom you never see nor could you help were it not for the Community Chest.

Why FuIIer's Earth

What is fuller? In the Bible We
read Of fuller's field, and of raimen
so white that a fuller could not make
1t much whittier. So a fuller was q
bleacher, and fulling was bleaching.
We are reminded of this old English
word by the news that an immense
deposit of fuller's earth has been dis
covered at PREAMBLE, in Cornwall. Ex-
perts say that there are q million tons
Of this clay-like substance ready to be
dug out.
Fuller's earth is found only in wide
ly-separated localities, the most famous
deposit being at Nutileld, near Reigate.
In, past times, too, 1t was mined near
Bath for the use of the old wool-weav.
ing towns Of Frome and Bradford-on-
Avon.
Its ancient use for absorbing the
oil In wooden cloths has become al
most a thing Of the past, other proc
esses being used, but as a toilet pow
der it is invaluable, and it is still In
great demand for clearing mineral oils
and in the manufacture of soaps.

Why the Term "KilolDaft
Hour" Is Used on Bills

For those of us who look at our cleo
trio bills and sometimes wonder Just
what it is all about has come a bit of
education.
Eggs" says Prof. G. F. Harding of
Purdue university, ''are sold by the
dozen, potatoes by the bushel, coal by
the ton and water and gas usually are
sold by the thousands of cubic feet
used each month, as determined by a
meter.
1.-THE corresponding unit for cleo
trical energy is the kilowatt hour. The
kilowatt hour, therefore, includes in
one unit Of measurement, the amount
of electrical energy used.
For example, If 25-watt lamp is
burned 40 hours, the electric meter will
register 25 times 40, or 1000 watt
hours. In similar manner, a 500
watt electric iron which is In use for
two hours would cause meter to
register 1000 watt hours, or kilo-
watt hour.
''The number of kilowatts used dur
ing the month multiplied by the rate
per kilowatt determines the amount
to be paid"

Why Wheels Deceiue You

Why do the wheels on automo
biles seem to turn backward in the
movies?
Motion pictures are in reality a
combination of still pictures. The first
notion picture of the automobile
shows the spokes of the wheels in one
position. If the next exposure of the
iilm were made when spoke number
one had advanced far enough to be in
the position of spoke number two, the
picture would show no motion, as
spokes are identical. If spoke one
rad advanced less than half way to
Sition of spoke two, the forward
lotion would be noticed. If, however,
spoke one advances more than half
way, to the observer 1t would have
the effect of spoke two moving back
ward, as that distance would be short
er and the apparent motion would be
in that direction.

WHY
You Should Brush Teeth to
Live to Be 12O.

DR.. Thomas Darlington, former pres
| ident of the department of health OF
New York, advocates the brushing OF
ones teeth seven times day, before
and after every meal and at bedtime.
This was part of recipe for pro-
longing life to 120 years, prescribed
by Doctor Darlington recently.
In his lecture he criticized the aver
age woman for keeping late hours
habitually in the belief that this would
reduce weight. ION the contrary" he
said, 'if you stay up at night you
get fat. Go to bed early If you want
to get thin"
The cleaning of ones hands, Doctor
Darlington cited as an important fac
tor likewise In helping one to live
100 years.
One. two or three glasses of water
with meals and a glass or two be-
tween meals are essential to good d.
gestion and to longevity, he said, add
ing that the popular opinion that one
should drink water between meals and
not at all with meals is all wrong.
Getting tired is another great OBJ
stacle In the way of bodily efficiency
and long life," according to Doctor
Darlington. But he said that work
never tired anybody and that III you
love your work you will keep young
for many years." Lack of proper nu-
triton, indigestion and other evils
were cited as the real causes of
fatigue.
at is a good thing to teach calories, |
because most people eat twice as much |
as they need. Half the battle In getting |
rid of sickness is not to worry and |
fret. Anger, envy, grief and dIsap-
pointment all affect the system

ACRES OF
POTATOES IN
GEM STATE

Farmers in Idaho have planted the
same acreage to potatoes this year as
last, or $1,000 acres, according to the
report for July issued by Julius
II. Jacobson, U. S. crop statistician
for the state Their early intentions
were to reduce IL percent, but the
California situation apparently in
fluenced the growers OF early pOta-
toes to increase their early acreage
intentions, declared NJ. jacobson.
"Some of the sugar beer acreage
which failed to develop a good stand"
says Mr.. Jacobson, was reSaeded to
potatoes. The Idaho Falls district
shows an acreage increase Of about
acreage some $500 acres, and the
Nampa- Caldwell district planted about
the same as last year-7,200 acres"
Continuing the report states:
The July condition of so percent
is the lowest for that date since 1919.
when it was 75 percent. Present
prospects are 10,713,0O0 bushels,
slightly more than the 1921 crop.
In 1923 the estimated crop was H..
725,00O bushels and shipments TO-
tailed around 1880 cars. The 1922
crop was 14,9S5,00O bushels, of which
1928 cars were shipped.
Touching ON other crop conditions
in the state the report says:
Wheat condition dropped to new
low levels, 60 percent of normal for
winter wheat and IS percent for
spring wheat compared with gS per-
cent and 81 percent, respectively, a
year ago.
Total wheat prospe Ms are Is.
$4,000 bushels or 52.2 percent of
last years record crop Of 3D.115. 600 |
bushels. Intense heat the past two
weeks and some hot winds did their |
work well. Dry land Yields will be |
light, but rain in Idaho county caused
some improvement ana irrigated i
wheat is still in good condition.
1.-The first forecast of the Idaho hay
'rop indicates 2,117,000 tons com.
pared with 2,S0S,000 tons harvested
asst year. This years outlook is the
owest since 1918 when ',05S.OO0 tons
we're harvested. Quality of the first
