TWO u. s. COLLEGE GIRLS

Many young girls from the Orient
are educated in American colleges.
They come from China, Japan, India
and everywhere. Two of them are
just now of particular interest be-
cause of the civil war in China.
One is the former Poa-yu Tang,
captivating daughter of Chinese
statesman Of great wealth. She
graduated some years ago from
Barnard College, New York and has
been described by a noted portrait
painter as "small, poised, sophisti
Gated, cosmopolitan, elusive" She
married Vi-Kyuin Wellington Koo,
former Chinese minister to the Unit
ed States and now foreign minister
at Peking, where she reigns as the
cosmopolitan aristocrat of feminine
China" But her husbands party is
sorely beset just now.
The other, demure little Chung
ling Soong, chose Wesleyan College
at Macon, Ga, as her alma mater.
Her quiet, womanly ways appealed to
another great Chinese statesman, and
she became the wife of the late DR..
Sun Yat-Sen, father and first presi-
dent of the Chinese republic. AS his
widow she is today idolized by the
Nationalists whose arms have re-
Gently met with much success.
Thus two American college girls
are the leading feminine figures in
official circles of the opposing fac
tions now struggling for mastery in
the land of the Confucius,

STRAW is VALUABLE

According to George H. Harrison,
a leading industrial chemist of St.
Paul, a ton of good wheat or oat
straw has potential value of $500.
He is said to have obtained from a
ton of straw about 1000 pounds of
useful products, including roofing
and damp -proofing paint, fly spray
and a new germicide considered eff
fective by the Mayo brothers, famed
surgeons.
Although not yet economically
practical it is possible to produce
from straw a gas capable of running
automobiles, while many other pro
ducts of value may be derived from
it by destructive distillation.
Mr.. Harrison believes that when
the various processes for utilizing 1t
have been perfected the straw will
be more valuable to the farmer than
the grain that grows with it.

GERMAN RADIO PROGRAMS FAIL
To SATISFY ALL LISTENERS

The German radio listeners, who
have to pay the government about
Sc 900 900 in annual license fees for
their programs over the air are con-
stantly kicking about the entertain
ment they receive. They are now de-
manding more jazz and less 'high-
brow" stuff for their money, and Ii
beral party leaders have taken up the
cry on behalf of the influential vot-
ers.
"Workmen are too tired at night to
listen in on operas, stage dramas or
lectures lasting three or four hours.
party spokesmen say. "The Jazz mu-
sic which is very popular does not
start until l0:30 or later when most
persons are in bed
There are only about twenty broad
casting stations in the whole country,
and since all the programs are Of the
same type the listeners get very lite
variety at any one time. All broad
casting stations are either owned by
the government and operated by the
ministry of posts and telegraphs OF
owned by the government and leased
to private companies, which net large
profits from broadcasting advertising

Do YOU KNOW THAT:

Bananas, peaches, pineapple or any
fruit you wish, pressed through
sieve and added to plain tapioca
will make this old standby take on
new fascination.
Tapioca poured cold over fresh or
cooked fruit is delicious.
Raisins and nuts may be used IN
combination with fruit in tapioca.
Chocolate fudge will have an unus-
ual delicacy of flavor if, while it is
hot, marshmellows are beaten into
it until they are blended with the sy-
rup.
Baked apples stuffed with shredded
pineapple and raisins, chilled and serv-
ed with whipped cream make diff
ferent' dessert.
Water is better than milk in cake
made with egg yolks.
A teaspoon of baking powder will
take the place of an egg in cakes OF
muffins.
Sour milk may often be substituted
for shortening in cooking.
The icing will set and have beau
tifu, gloss if you will put the cake in
the oven for minute or two after
icing.
Hot water may be used instead of
cream in butter and powdered su-
gar icing.

uAND-TO-MOUTH BUYING

Hand -to-mouth buying is here to
stay, aecordingt to leading authori-
ties in the world of commerce and in
dustry. By that it is meant that
merchants no longer stock up on
large quantities of goods as they did
in pre-war days. The same is true
of purchasers of machinery and tools.
Strange to say, it is held by these
same authorities that careful and
conservative buying is a good thing
for business in the long run. There
is less waste in merchandise which
goes out of style and in tools and
machinery which becomes obsolete.
Moderate stocks carried by local
merchants makes financing easier and
distribute the demand for money
throughout the year, resulting in the
economical and uninterrupted use of
moderate volume of credit.
Increased production and trans
portation facilities have made it cas-
ier for manufacturers to fill orders,
thus removing the necessity for plac-
ing large orders long way ahead.
In the matter Of machinery and
tools, the possibility of new inven-
tions and improvements tends against
the accumulation of large surplus
production. E. F. DuBrul, leading
manufacturer, recently said:
$50 many superior designs have
been brought out in the last five
years that mechanical experts agree
that nearly every type of machine
tool built up to 1921 is now definitely
obsolete for fast production"
All these factors have simplified
the problems of the consumer and
retailer, but have correspondingly
increased the hazards of manufactur-
ing.

Unique Sidewalk Broadcast

Charles P. Taft, brother of the
chief justice of the United States Su
preme Court, oyercame "mike-fright'
and made his first appearance before
the radio microphone.
The occasion was a special broad
cast staged by WLW on a crowded
Cincinnati street corner, with Ford
and Glen, the WLW lullaby boys,
furnishing the entertainment. This
broadcast, another one of those
"first of its kind in radio history"
affairs, took place in front of the
building occupied by Mr.. Tafts news
paper. The veteran publisher was
persuaded with some difficulty to ap-
proach the microphone, but once
there he acquitted himself with dis
tinction by saying only five or six
words, and thereby earning an effec-
tionate place in the hearts Of speech
ridden radio fans.
This unique sidewalk broadcast at
tracted a mob at the street corner
which blocked traffic for ha,f an hour.
1t was at lunch time and hundreds
of office workers from nearby build
ings thronged the streets. A number
of policemen had to form a wall
around those participating in the
broadcast to give them room.
