And Still They Come
Merry Go-Round" Runs True to Form
at the Klaw.

To ask proletarian writer to criti-
cize a Broadway musical show is
very much like asking Eddie Cantor
to do a polemical book review for
Sender Garlin---only more so.
If the duties which devolve upon
one engaged in labor journalism are
anything, they are multitudinous and
varied. There. are compensations
however, but grille show reviews are
not among them.
Merry -GO-ROund," at the Klaw
runs true to form. There are the
usual collection of beautiful show
girls whose beauty somehow reminds
one Of the charm said to exist in blue
white diamonds. The sort of hard
beauty that glitters rather than
glows.
At duly appointed moments the
chorus filings itself with calculated
abandon onto the stage to the ac-
compartment Of suitable sexy Jazz
music. At such times the audience
is judiciously treated to glimpses of
cleaning feminine flesh. In this re-
spect Merry Round" differs little
from the ordinary revue.
There We're the expected assortment
of satirical sketches in which prohi-
bition, movie ushers, college football
and other vital subjects are lam
pooned. l wonder why the boys who
dish UP this fare have neglected the
possibilities contained in the revue
sketch. Now and then of course,
along comes an Americana" or
"Garrick Gaieties" and offers a mo-
ment of relief, but in the main So
called satirical revue sketches are dull
and pointless and invariably tread the
much beaten path. In this respect
also the subject under discussion
runs true to form.
The music, if one may call it that,
is what the professional reviewers
call Catchy" and lends itself ad-
mirably to exhibitions of the black
bottom, that lascivious terpsichorean
importation from New Orleans
dive.
The night on which the show was
reviewed, was very soon after the
opening night, and the presentation
somehow reminded one of a prema-
ture dress review. Curtains parted
at the wrong moment and the lights
went on and off at most embarrassing
times much to the -chagrin of the
"artists." These are difficulties
which will doubtless be ironed out
with the passage Of time.
The revue features Marie Cahill
that perennial never-die who has de-
lighted two-a-day audiences these
past years. 1 am told she introduced
that delightful American folk-song
"Under the Bamboo Tree" many,
many years ago. Of course that was
before my time.
Willie Collier is included in the
cast upon no provocation whatever
and contributes little to the enter
tainment.
Nobody was fooled by the inclusion
of these note1 musical comedy names.
The audience came to see good look
ing girls wriggle and comfort in the
black bottom. They were not dis
appointed.-C. Y. III.

Cook Cereal In

Cooking the breakfast cereal in a
thermos bottle while they sleep is
an idea which originated with
mothers whose heavy duties come
early in the morning. Always in.
terested in labor-saving schemes,
members of a Child Study Class dis,
covered that cereal could be pre-.
pared at night and put into thermos
bottles, where it would continue
cooking, just as in fireless cooker.
In the morning, it Is finished, ready
to serve, piping hot. Many women
are trying it and find the idea ex.
cellent as morning time-saver.
A quick-cooking cereal is pre-.
pared in the usual fashion: cups
Of water are put on to boil, salt is
added to taste, then cup OF oats
is stirred in. This Is poured directly
into the thermos bottle which has
been heated with warm water.
CThis last precaution is not nee
cessary except when very thorough
cooking of the cereal. is DESIRED
BY morning, the cereal is just right

treatment in the laundry tray or
tub Of the washing machine. The
materials generally used for this
purpose are washing soda, borax.
and ammonia. The difficulty in
such cases IL in knowing just how
much Of these chemicals should be
employed, as the amount win vary
with the hardness Of the water and
the quantity Of it to be softened.
It is probable that in most cases
too little is used, and there is only
a partial reduction of the hardness.
Enough softening material should
be added so that with a liberal
amount Of soap put into the wash
water, there will be a good lather.
Such treatment Of the water un.
doubleday Is Of some help.
Trouble from hard water can be
eliminated by softening the water
in a domestic water-softener. These
softeners are made with steel
tank containing sand.like mineral
called zeolite. which has the ability
Of taking away all the hardness
from the water, which, after leav-
ing the tank in a softened condi-
ton, flows through the house piping
just as before tho softener was in
stalled. At regular intervals the
zeolite is flushed with salt water
to restore it's softening ability.
Salt of an inexpensive grade is used,
The treatment with salt is called
"reconditioning" and does not re-
quire any skill on the part of the
operator. The automatic softener
has a salt tank that is filled about
every month or so, and at regular
intervals salt solution is auto.
matica1ly fed from this tank onto
the zeolite. The non-automatic type
is usually reconditioned about every
ten days or two weeks, as the
length of time between recondition.
ing depends upon the size of the
softener, the hardness of the water,
and the quantity of water softened
each day. It is easy to tell when
the softener needs to be recondi.
toned by adding to some of the
softened water a soap solution
supplied by the manufacturer for
the purpose, or by reading the
water meter, as the softener is
capable Of handling a definite
number of gallons of a given water
between reconditionings. AS so
little care is needed for the softener,
it is an easy matter to have good
soft water at all times.

mon occurrence for this coil to be,
come completely clogged with scale,
after which it burns out, and the
heating plant has to be shut down
to install a new coil.
When the water supply is ex.
tremely hard, rain-water Is often
used in it's place. Rain-water is
soft, and free from dissolved min.
erals, as it flows into the cistern
where it is to be stored. Cisterns

water is found to have acquired an
appreciable amount Of hardness
from the cistern walls, although
still being softer than the regular
hard-water supply. The rain.water
flowing over the roofs washes the
dirt from them, and an attempt
should be made to divert the first
of the rainfall onto the ground SO
as to keep down the accumulation
in the cisteFn. In spite of such
measures, the cistern is a dirt-trap
that has to be cleaned out periodi-
cally. Some cisterns are equipped
with filtering wall to strain out
this dirt, but it is not long before
such a filter becomes foul; and as
there is no convenient way of clean.

is discolored.
Perhaps the greatest objection to
the use of rain-water is the careful
conservation of it, despite the fact
that for sanitary reasons water
ought to be used freely. AS a cor.

extra-large 'cistern, but it Is not
easily emptied and cleaned.
The use of cistern.water IS cues.

the hard town water for such pur.

used. 1t should be analysed.
The Institute has communicated
with the various Boards of Health
and has found that in most States
there are no specific regulations
governing the location of con.
struction of the cistern. In most
States, however, the State Board
OF Health will be glad to make
analyses Of such water whenever
requested. Should you contemplate
having such an analysis made, you
should obtain detailed instructions
from the Board Of Health regarding
the proper method of handling the
sample to be analysed.
In localities having moderately

Some New Facts About the Avocado, or Alligator Pear
Which Can Be Obtained During the Entire Year

A fruit which Is fast gaining in
popularity Is the avocado. mis-
named alligator pear. which Is be-
ing developed rapidly. production
wing doubled in the last year
The avocado is unique among fresh
fruits in that 1t contains no acid
and little sugar. Numerous analyses
made by the Department Of Agri.
culture and the University OF
California have shown that the
fruit contains an average OF twenty
one per cent fat. which is as much
as that of the average olive, and
the protein content and mineral
content are greater than those of
many other fruits 1t il very easy
to digest and has high calory
value. The Guatemalan. which is
the type most commonly grown in
California. is very large. the fruit
ranging from ole to three pounds
or more in weight. The color Is
green or deep purple. and it has
thick. rough skin. This type can be
produced every month of the year,
and is of a fine keeping quality.
Avocados may be obtained during
the entire year, although they are
rather scarce during December,
January and February. The avo-
cado Lakes welcome change for
salad. We made a particularly good
one last week with slices of pine
apple alternating with slices of
avocado and served with French

resolutions OF thanks.
Election of five new members or the
judicial commission was considered of
greatest importance because the COM
mission is the supreme court OF the
church, with power TO decide cases
submitted to the General Assembly
by synods of the church.
First Reversal i'm History.
For the first time in 20 years a de-
cision of the judicial commission was
reversed by the General Assembly
Yesterday. The case in question was
docketed as Rev. Walter ID. Buchanan
against the Synod of New York. 1t
involved doctrinal beliefs of two New
York Presbyterian churchmen, Revs |
Carlos G.. Fuller and Cameron Parker
Hall, who had been accepted by the |
church after answering certain Ques- |
fions regarding their belief. Bu- |
chanan protested this acceptance.
Rev. Walter F. Eagleston of Wash |
ington, ID. c., in his minority report |
declared that both men could not af |
firm belief in the Virgin birth of |
Christ. and that Rev. Mr.. Fuller told |
the New York examining committee |
that he believed in the mundane pa. |
rentage of Christ. The judicial COM
mission dismissed Buehancn's COM |
plant.
The assembly rejected Rev Mr.. Ca.
gleston's report. The final vote was |
333 to 99s.
Princeton Issue Settled.
/. The Buchanan case created more ex-
element in the Assembly than did the |
Princeton theological Seminary report, |
on which the Assembly voted for reor-
Eanization of the faculty and retention
pending such reorganization of the
service of Prof. j. Gresham Machen
and Prof. Oswald T. Allis, on the semi
nary faculty.
Prohibition violations and atheism
were dealt blows in two resolutions
adopted by the Assembly. Rev. Edward
Wicher of San Francisco introduced
the first, calling for Assembly disap.
proval OF political parties and candi-
dates allied with interests to defeat
prohibition and urging education
against the lack of public con-
science" in regard to the law.
ghe second resolution called for co.
operation with all agencies designed to
defeat the existing movement to
spread atheism among college youths.
