800 men TO serve as executives and
assistant executives in connection with
tbc operation OF the 6o6 flrSt-claSS
councils now operating and the new
councils u he organized.
To meet this need plans have been
made for series of intensive train.
ing courses il different parts of the
country.
The first course will be held with the
cooperation Of Teachers College, Co.
lumbia University, and will open Oc-
tober "a. The course will he restricted
to men with such educational qualifi-
cations and general aptitude as will
reasonably assure their success in this
particular field of educational work.
During the Summer season approx
mately 100000 boys had the benefit
Of camps conducted by the Boy Scouts
Of America.
Membership in the Scout movement
increased during the year by more

TRAY TROTTING TAKES
ALL Joy OUT OF LIFE,
SAYS EDWARD FL0RE

MONTREAL, Aug. 27.-That the
art of preparing and serving food Is
in danger Of disappearing from Amer
lea, with grave consequences to the
public health, was one Of the thesis
of the presidential address Of Edward
Flore, of Buffalo, to the biennial con-
vention here of the Hotel and Restau-
rant Employees international ALI
ance and the Bartenders' League Of
America.
''The late war has left many inher-
itances with u.s." said Mr.. Flore.
"Among them is the tendency Of the
American public to accept anything
that has speed and conservation as
its motto; to forfeit ell customs and
comforts Of former days and to treat
life as purely business enterprise,
leaving very little time for relaxation
and personal consideration. It is de-
pressing to see men and women of ali
walks of life lining up with trays in
cafeterias, and then boiling their food
with all possible haste. Those en-
gagged in hotel and restaurant work
must devise some means to discourage
the public's present craze for the
primitive and go-as-you-please serv-
ice, and encourage return to the day
when skill and science were the rule
in the preparation of food and bever-
ages, and when people allotted them
selves sufficient time for taking their
meals in comfort and enjoyment"
The convention went on record as
favoring the repeal of the Eighteenth
Amendment, "a mistake was made in
the excitement of the war, which has
remained to plague US and corrupt US
to this day"
After a discussion on the respective
duties of cooks and walters, it was
laid down as a general rule that serv-
ice to the customer should not be held
up while the employees split hairs. By
a majority vote it was decided that
at a pinch the floorman Of a cafe
terra may fry an egg for sandwich
as well as cut ham and butter bread.
Edward Flore, president since 1911,
was reelected, and Portland, Ore, was
chosen for the convention in 1927.
James Duncan, first vice president Of
the A. F. of L., delivered. an address,
outlining the work of the Federation
and referring to plans to establish
general insurance for the workers.

Entertaining
Guests
By Hannah Wing

Signs of relief on the part of the
hostess and signs of exhaustion from
the guest are too often the aftermath
of visits. A guide to how TO be happy
although entertaining and how to en-
joy oneself, although n guest should
contain at least some of the follow
ing suggestions:
In the first place be definite in
your invitation. 1t will save both
you and your guest embarrassment
and difficulty. When you say, Come
for the weekend" you can be just
cordial if you specify that the guest
is expected for lunch on Friday and
that you hope she can stay until Mon
day. If the invitation is for a week,
state when the week begins, both day
Of the week and day of the month.
Don't neglect to give your guest
some opportunity for her own plans.
II is as strenuous being entertained
constantly as entertaining.
1t is a wise precaution to deliver
the guests mail, kilograms or tcle-
phone calls Immediately. Since these
are outside the household regime
there may be unfortunate eases of
forgetfulness if they are not attend
ed TO promptly
There are host of little inexpcn-
sive, thoughtful things that may add
to the guests comfort and give q
feeling of real welcome and kindly
care to her visit. BE sure that the
guest room closet is provided Will
plenty of extra hangers. Shoe trees
should also be kept there. While one
does not need to initiate n great hotcl
syndicate in thoughtfulness, it il
pleasant to find n writing portfolio
at hand with pen, ink, stamps, tele
gram blanks and sharpened pencil!
with crasers.
A new magazine, an interesting
bool, or two, fresh flowers, bow
of fruit, carafe of drinking water
at night, cup of hot water in tho
morning if you find that the guest is
accustomed to starting her day in this
manner, all make for n pleasant stay
in your home.
In the small household the guest
presents two very real problems
These are baths and breakfasts. II
is often much simpler and helps tC
get the day started right to serve the
guest breakfast in bed. This allows
time to attend to the daily routine
get the household organized, anC
keeps confusion and rush at q mini
mum.
Seldom is there guest who does
not appreciate this indulgence, par
ticularly if she is on brief yaca.
ton from household or business re-
sponsibilities.
If there is only one bathroom, the
family must give way to the guest
even if it upscts the schedule Of daily
Tubing. a little forcthought will
keep the bathroom clear at the time
most convenient for the guest.

Yes or No?

/. Are there any birds in this
country that will attack live animals
as the kea of Australia does?
.. Do animals ever interfere with
telephone service by molesting the
telephone poles or wires?
8. Does the water which is
brought to the surface from artesian
wells flow with any degree of rapid
ity while under the ground?
Found
I. Yes. During severe winter
weather when food is scarce the mag
pies of our Western States have been
known to attack sick animals as the
kea Of Australia attacks sheep.
Branding wounds often attract these
birds and they may continue TO feed
on the living animal until it is killed,
2. Yes. Bears have been known
to mistake the humming of the tele-
phone wires for the buzzing of bees
and have climbed the poles and brok-
en- the glass insulators in their eff
forts to locate the honey.
3. No. The underground water
which comes to the surface through
artesian wells moves underground
only about half a mile a year on the
average. The speed depends on the
depth of the underground rock, the
amount of water and the minerals
dissolved in it, so that water from
an artesian well may have required
from 80 to 100 years or longer to go
from the original source of entrance
to the outlet.
