 Again was heard the plaint that all tourists are not "saps" and that prices, in most instances on commodities, were entirely too , high. He said he had found in stances where Alaska curioS were being sold which he knew were made either in the States or in Germany or Japan This should cease, he said, as Alaska ought to have sufficient bona fide things to offer the public.
 The insects bothered him and other tourists and he thought that in cases, like the present season when they appear to be worse than usual, a fleet of air planes could easily drop a liquid or gas detrimental to insects but not harmful to other life.

In conclusion he said it has been his pleasure to have visited what are supposed to be the worlds most beautiful and finest harbors; these included Rio Janeiro har- Dor, and the Bay of Naples. Both of these are magnificent, he said, the latter from which vantage point the live volcano, Vesuvius, is seen and, with the irredescent waters, is a vision never to be forgotten.
 But permit me to say here that even recalling the old saying See the Bay of Naples then die"- your Resurrection Bay exceeds I have ever seen. It sur passes in both scenic, largeness and location and among the towering the grandeur of falling waters and glaciers is an inspira- ,ion."

esthetically prudent. not merely practi-
cally so. The measured and delayed
reaction gets built into our general
emotional behavior. We don't want to
spoil an effect for ourselves or others
by precipitation. Children find it hard
to keep a secret; in the adult control
the habit Is established in matters Of
larger consequence and Is then reflected
or echoed in so trivial q matter as the
icing" test
There is another side to every such
choice between holding back and let
ting go. By too much reflection We
lose natural Joy Of letting go; we be-
come overinhibited, acquire the inhi-
bition habit. In this group of school
children the two known to me as
markedly shy and inhibited saved the
icing for last, and the two most inn
pulsive children ate little more than
the icing. Both observations are just
trif1es to show which way the wind
blows. However constantly prudence
may be virtue in practical measures,
we must not in our enjoyments be too
much like Mrs. Gilpin, who, though on
pleasure bent, had a frugal mind"
Pleasuring is letting go; and II, when
we indulge occasionally, we can't enjoy
the meal for thought of that slip of
paper, which the waiter so thought
fully places face down-delaying the
shock as long as possible-we haven't
quite reached the most favorable dispo-
haps the safe medium way iS 70 take

through icing and all, remembering
that we can't eat our cake and have

Perhaps this was why in prosperous
days he gorged.
Early days of eating among uncouth
people gave him offensive manners.
His eyes were glued to his plate. he

He affected to be q connoisSeur. Dis

Famous Slaves of Their StOmachs
Dr. Samuel Johnson Ate Even Spoiled and
Tainted Food With Relish.

Topham Beauclerk and Bennett
Langton once knocked at DR.. Samuel

The great compiler Of the dictionary

Of many other works, opened the door
with a poker in his hand, fearing an

who his visitors were said:
What, Is 1t you, you dogs! Yes,
I'll have o frisk with you"
Inevitably, the expedition led to o

Do You Eat Icing First?

As I have occasion now and then
to sit at table at a boarding school
with company of children of all ages,
I made the familiar observation that
some eat the icing of their cake first,
perhaps most take 1t as 1t comes and
cut straight through, and few take
of the icing and save it for last. This
little variation in habit has no telltale
@gni1cance, but 1t has suggestive
value.
The psychologist experimenting on
animal behavior devised the delayed
reaction" test. OF three food boxes
just alike, two are locked and one
unlocked, sometimes one and sometimes
another; over the unlocked one there
burns an electric light. The problem Of
the animal is to learn to go to the
lighted box: and rat will learn that
in time, quite as well as small boy can
locate the jam on the pantry shelf.
Now comes the delayed reaction. The
ing, then the light is put out and the
observer notes whether, when released,
the animal will go to the right box.
The rats limit Of delay is five seconds;
cats can hold the right box in mind
Tor 10 seconds; dogs from one to three
minutes; children Gin q similar expert
ment) increased the interval from 40
seconds at the age OF Is months, to so
eeconds at the age OF 2 u years and to
20 minutes or more ut the age Of s
years.
While this Is merely memory test,
1t involves the general habit of hold
ing things in mind for future action.
The state Of readiness for action per-
sists, and when released the learned
pattern is followed. The dogs SUI
periority Is shown In the familiar trick
of placing a bit of cake on his nose
and training him not to snap 1t until
you give him the signal; but once the
signal is given there is no delayed
reaction. Prudence means that you
do you own delaying; you save the
icing for last.
Unquestionably the impulsive child
eats the icing FIRST; and having the
dish Of candy on the table to be
served only after dessert is q useful
bit of training in delayed reaction,
quite easy for some children, not so
for others. Even to learn for polite
ness sake not to grab, but deliberately
to take or to serve others before help
ing ones self, is training In the same
interest o control.
This principle works as well for
other emotional responses. When
angry, count ten before you speak.
Gradually we move away from the
simpler situations suited to child psy-
el1ology to the more general emotional
Nnes Of the mature character.

BOLD DESIGNS ARE BEST FOR OUTLINE QUILTING

Colorful quilting Is a needlecraft that
lends itself admirably to Summertime
work. Among the interesting boudoir
pillows that are welcomed by every
home maker, one might say by every
woman, are those of sheer material
quilted in gay colors. Fine. sheer lawn
and handkerchief linen are excellent
textiles. Any large pattern without
detail Of design can be successfully
worked in this quilting. The pattern
may be geometric or floral.
Basic q lining of heavier matching
material to the stamped pillow cover.
With white thread, or yellow, or tone
matching one of the gay quilting
strands, outline the design as indicated.
Then make a second stitchery outline a
little distance from the first.
Thread bodkin with the gay. heavy
quilting strands which must be fast
color. Coarse yarn, rowing, candle
wick and similar mediums are used for
these strands. which are run through
the tubes between the lines Of stitchery
the bodkin up through the loosely
woven textile Of the lining and out again
as the pattern demands when running
the quilting strands through the tubes.
The color will show through in deli
cate tones, although the medium thread
in the bodkin is deep and strong in hue.
Make the pillow with or without a
ruffled border. Use the same material
for the back of the pillowcase as for the
front. Have the back open through the
center and Tapped with buttonholes
worked on the outer lap and buttons
sewed to the inner one.
Gases for handkerchiefs and gloves
can be quilted in the same way. In
ancient times the quilting strands run
through the tubes were very fine. neces-
stating narrow tubes. The modern
work on these cases can be fine, too.

Akerson is a native Of Minneapolis
AS youth he spent all OF his Summers

He has thorough musical education
And although frequently his piano re-

He paid his way through course at
Harvard by serving as organist at a
Catholic Church. And at times he
amazes his Catholic friends with his
knowledge Of the history Of church

But political science has always been
his field. He left the University of
Minnesota to enter Harvard because of
a thirst for knowledge in this field. He
took up journalism because he felt that
he would be closer to politics.
Akerson first met up with Hoover in
1925. The then Secretary of Com

Akerson was selected. Out of this as

Everyday Psychology


Mr.. Edison's search for Q successor
has aroused a great deal Of popular in
terest in geniuses. The public wants to
know what O genius looks like. Of what
mental ingredients he Is composed, upon
what psychological architecture he is
constructed. how the house Of mind in
such cases Is furnished.
The educators, who had the task Of
selecting geniuses from the several
States, 1t seems, staked their judgments
on the findings Of the So-called mental
tests now used widely in the public
schools. or upon academic achievements.
II mistake not, these mental tests
mean nothing when it comes to select
ing a genius. Neither does academic
standing. There Is no test for genius
except practical achievement along the
line of some unusual flight Of the inag-
nation. And also the requisite energy.
endurance. and adequate mechanism
for turning that imagination to practi-
cal account.
In looking for q genius. you need to
take the queer twists OF human nature
into account. Geniuses and queer peo-
pie usually have something in common.
What that common denomination Ia no
one knows It takes different turns and
finds various expressions In conse-
quence of the pressure Of environment
especially the surroundings Of early
life up to and including the so-called
adolescent period.
Heredity is an altogether questionable
factor. It Is possible to breed good
running horse. O COW with q high per-
centage Of butter fat, q hog that will
make good Virginia ham. These things
can be controlled But who knows what
human imagination is2 Who knows how
to develop It?
A genius Ia the end-result Of in
Vulnerable forces, generally environ
mental in origin, the vast majority OF
which the common run of educators
knows nothing about. There IL no
composite psychological picture Of q
genius. You can only sometimes say
that he Is. Never what he Is.

Hot Summer months bring demand
for cool, refreshing drinks. There is no
end to the variety that can be served
by an ingenious housewife, but It would
be better perhaps to follow recipes that
have been tested and approved by die
tetic experts.
Many delightful Summer drinks can
be made of coffee. Its appeal is uni
versal, in hot weather as well as cold
It is always on hand and 1t Is easily and
quickly prepared.
Coffee for cold drinks may be made
in the usual way, but since 1t will be
diluted By ice, it should be somewhat
stronger than If it were to be served
hot. Here are several recipes that have
been tested:
Iced spiced coffee-Six cupfuls strain
ed, strong coffee; twenty-four whole
cloves, one f1ve-inch stick cinnamon,
three-fourths cupful heavy cream,
whipped and sweetened. Add spices to
coffee, boil five minutes, strain, add
sugar and chill. Serve In glasses con-
tanning crushed ice and top with cream
busted with powdered cinnamon.
Frosted coffee-Six cupfulS cold,
strained, strong coffee; three-fourths
pint vanilla ice cream. Serve on tray
with coffee in pitcher, glasses and
shaker; ice cream in bowl. Put two
heaping teaspoonfuls Of ice cream into
