ials in power, the mansion became a
tavern-a sort of stopping point for
coaches on the Post Road out of New
York. Washington, to help cele-
brate the victorious turn of events,
came back to his one-time quarters,
bringing with him a merry party of
cabinet officers, their wives and girl
friends for a festive dinner party,
at which much that was stronger
than the Volstead law allows was
quaffed.
Within the next few years, how
ever, it fell into disrepair and finally
was salvaged by one Stephen Jumel,
friend Of Napoleon, who would have
brought the conqueror back to his
redecorated home had not a few
affairs at home kept Napoleon oc-
cupied.
After the downfall of Napoleon,
Nine. Jumel was expelled from
France by the government of Louis
XVIII after she persisted in riding
through the streets of Paris with
the insignia Of the eagle wings, Ma
poleon's emblem, on the sides of her
carriage.
But Stephen Jumel must have OBJ

she returned to France in 1921. She
was present at the coronation of
Charles K. She embarked on q
career of reckless extravaganza,
wasting the fortune of her indulgent
husband. Four years Of this and the
Jumels were obliged, through fin
ancial straits, to close their home
in Paris. Nine. Jumel returned to
the mansion on Washington Heights.
Now there was gossip of Aaron
Burr visiting the home. Burr had
been vice president. In 1928 Stephen
Jumel came home, an old man.
Jumeps death in 1882 caused an
other wave of gossip. He fell from
q hay cart, was taken up insensible
and was bled after the fashion Of
treatment of the day. The next
morning he was found dead-with

bled to death.
In 1888 Nine. Jumel was married
to Aaron Burr.
There are biographers who say
Nine. Jumel was overbearing and
dominating beyond endurance in the
later years Of her life. At any rate.
Aaron Burr did not remain long in
the great house on the hill. One
day he walked out Of the mansion
never to return.
Was there ghost in that old
house then?
At any rate, it was q house in

lty at least as successfully, and per-
haps more so, than any other man
mentioned for the presidency in 1928
could have done.
4. He is well equipped to put the
machinery of government on a more
efficient basis than it ever has
operated on.
So much for Hoover the engineer,
Hoover the administrator, Hoover
the organizer, and Hoover the HUI
manitarian. On the other side of the
picture here are his visible flaws:
!. Politically speaking, he is not
entirely scrupulous. That does not
mean that his personal character
is not spotless or that any other
successful politician has such things
as scruples. The charge is made
that he permitted important men,
bers Of his political machine to cir
culate religious propaganda during
the recent campaign.
2. Hoover has seldom been bold
except when there was everything
to gain by boldness and nothing to
lose. He has been a burning cru
sader against such unpopular in
stitutions as bolshevism and in favor
of prosperity and the American
home. He has seldom engaged in
any fight until victory was as good
as won. His campaign tactics
seemed to be typical of him, although
they were also undeniably good poll
tics. He has been even more silent
than Coolidge on Republican scan
dals.
3, He has often been accused Of
timidity.
So much for that. There is no
reason to suppose that these defects
as shown by Hoover's history are
bound to handicap him now. AS
president, with a favorable Congress,
his power will be almost limitless.
The caution which he has here
tofore exhibited may become one Of
his virtues; it seems extremely likely
that he will act most vigorously
when and if he is assured Of the sup
port of the American people.
No man can rise to high political
office except under almost incon-
ceivable circumstances, without sac
rificing much Of his self-respect

Government recognition seems to have been given to

ing the age limit for appointment of first second and
thirdclass postmasters from sixtyfve to

In recommending the change, Postmaster General
New said that great many at their best

has been deprived of the opportunity to secure the

MACARONI, SPAGHETTI AND
NOODLES

With the coming Of the winter
months, the average person will be
able to digest and assimilate larger
quantities Of the starchy foods.
Among the more wholesome starches
we find the Italian pastes, macaroni,
spaghetti, noodles and host of sim
liar products manufactured out of
white flour and water into hundreds
of shapes such as stars, crescents,
shells, the alphabet, sheets, etc.
Sometimes eggs are added to these
pastes, but this type is actually not
SO desirable as the cheaper brands
manufactured without eggs.
The invention of these products is
generally credited to the Italians,
but the records of history show that
the Chinese were the real inventors,
and that the idea for these pastes
was introduced into Italy by party
Of German travelling merchants.
However, it was the Italians who
realized the value of the idea and
finally the manufacture of these
products became a secret process,
jealousy guarded by Italy for fully
hundred years but, Of course, this
secret could not be maintained for
ever.
The flour from hard wheat is most
commonly used for manufacturing
these pastes and it is mixed with
small amount Of boiling water and
mixed and kneaded by powerful ma
chinery until the dough is smooth
and tough. 1t is then forced out of
a cylindrical press through the small
holes Of perforated iron plate. The
shape of the holes regulates the mold
Of the product, the smaller kinds
being sheared off by rotary knives.
In Italy many colored varieties
are manufactured, being colored yell
low with eggs, green with spinach
juice and red with beet juice. The
latter two types are the more whole
some.
Recently many firms have manu-
featured wholewheat macaroni. This
has slight dietetic advantage, since
it contains some mineral elements
that have been removed from the
white flour. However, all Of these
pastes should be eaten with meals
containing non-starchy vegetables
and the latter will supply the min
eral element to make up for the de-
ficiency of the flour.
Since these products are highly
starchy foods, they should not be
combined with cheese or tomatoes as
is done in the average recipe. The
malic acid Of the tomato is very
powerful and does not form a good
combination with any starchy food.
The best way to prepare these pastes
is to cook them in unsalted boiling

Washington, Nov. 21.-Hoovcr
may turn out to be better or worse
president than Coolidge, but it is
pretty certain that he is going to be
different. His forthcoming South
American visit encourages those who
believe he will make a new type of
chief executive and that the change
will be all to the good.
Few things could do more to
strengthen our interests in this
hemisphere than Hoover's trip. It
is a master stroke. Latin America
is an important prop to our pros
perity, and the least resistant field
in our war for world trade. Hoover
now appears to have meant what he
said when he insisted during the
campaign that there were some
things president could do about
prosperity.
Some time between now and in
auguration brief checkup on the
sort of president Hoover is likely to
make, based on past performance,
may be in order. Now that the en-
bers Of partisanship are only smol-
dering. this may be as good time
as any. Let's enumerate, first for
better and then for worse, in q
thumbnail analysis:
l. Hoover will enter the White
House with greater potentialities
than any president within memory.
His background of achievement goes
far outside that of Harding or Cool
idge. 1t transcends that of the clois-
tered, scholarly Wilson. 1t affords
high hope that Hoover will always
put the interests Of the nation above
that of party.
2. There have been innumerable
instances of personal humanity
about Hoover which suggest that he
isn't going to forget all about the
underdog; that although he may not
antagonize Big Business he will al
least attempt to see that the
masses" don't get all the BAG
breaks.
3. Hoover has initiative. His ad.
ministration promises progress-il
what direction one cannot predict
but we are not in for a period Of
standstill. He ought to be able tt

Rheumatic Fever
Question: G. w. asks: 'fWhat
are the symptoms Of rheumatic
fever?"
Answer: The principal symptoms
showing the approach Of rheumatic
fever are soreness Of the joints or
muscles, loss of appetite, fever
which usually varies from 100 de-
grees to 101 degrees except when it
occasionally, at the start, goes as
high as 1O4 degrees. Constipation,
and coated tongue are usually pres
ent and tonsils are generally swollen
but these organs may be inflamed as
result of the general toxemia and
cannot usually be considered as
cause of the fever, although fever
from acute tonsilitis often resembles
rheumatic fever.

Senator McNary, co-author of the McNary- Haugen

opening Of the short session. 1t is believed this bill
will be dictated by Republican policies outlined dur
