TUNING ACCURACY AN ART.

Accuracy in tuning a radio receiv.

Accuracy of tuning increases with

Dutch Names GiDen to
Old NeEU York Streets

Very curious and interesting are
the old street names Of New York city.
Particularly In the financial district

in this relation. Most of the streets
had Dutch names, since then more or
less changed For instance, Broad
street was called the "Graght," be-
cause ii was an inlet from the bay
Nassau street, between Wall and
Pearl streets, was once called Pie
Woman's lane" StOnestreet was
called ''Brouwer street." because the
West Indies company's brewery was
at No. 10, South William street was
"Slyck Sleegh." meaning dirty lane"
Liberty street was first called by the
Dutch ''Tienhoven street; later the
British called it Grown street" Pine
street was first called Queen street"
and later king street" Exchange
alley was "Oyster Pasty alley" and
''TIn Pot alley" Cortlandt street up
to 1928 was windmill lane" White
hall street derived its name from
Peter Stuyvesant's mansion. white
hall" William street. before 1t hon
ored the English king, was called
burgers path" Coenties slip was

One Chance All That
Time AccOrds TO Man

How often you hear dad. or some
other grownup speak, with sort Of
half-sigh In HIS voice, Of what ht
would do IL he were young again
Time goes quickly when yo1 are
goung, and you are only too likely to
put OF things you really should do.
GrownupE look back to the golden
days Of their youth as the happiesI
time Of their lives, but there is also
something Of regret in their backward
glance. There are so many things
they would like to have done. but
didn't.
Unfortunately. time gives us just
one chance.
Let's plan things now, then, so as
to have as few regrets as possible
when we look back from grownup
viewpoint. Let's get lots of exercise,
so that the grownup person we're go
ing to be not so many years from now
may be fit and strong Let's not get
into little habits of shiftIessness that
will handicap the future. Instead, let
US all work hard and play hard, so
that when the person we're going to
be looks backward, he'll find his youth
an encouragement, and not a matter
for regret.-Exchange

Testimony to Value
Of Home Environment

Tests recently concluded to deter
mine the moral and religious effects
Of various agencies on children have
shown that home environment goes
further In shaping character than any
other single influence. Within the
home circle, the influence Of the moth
er Is the strongest element.
This is true because It is a fact
of child psychology that ones course
In life is pretty well mapped out and
charted during the first seven years.
Study child at seven and you will
have a miniature picture of the flu
ture man or woman. Most of these
first seven years, Of course, repre-
sent that period of childhood when
almost all influences are negligible ex-
eepting those of the home.
A famous welfare worker on the
New York bowery has found that al
most without exception the human
derelicts who have been rescued and
regenerated through his efforts came
originally from homes in which there
was a wholesome moral atmosphere.
No matter how low they may have
sunk, the seed of goodness implanted
within them In their childhood homes
never died.-Thrift Magazine.
