New York, Sept. 25.-In the very

one chance during the working day to

There is a very bad habit that most
children in a family fall into SO easily
and naturally that it is we'll estab-
lished before the mother realizes 1t is
a habit-then it is too solid to break.
It's the habit of not being able to
say a decent word to n another.
Let one child say anything. do any
thing, want anything. and instantly,
up goes the flag. The others pouncc
on him like a pack of wolves. The
merest expression of an idea brings
down the scorn, wrath or ridicule Of
the others.
OF course. it isn't alwayes so drastic
but the monotonous pickering and
wrangling that we are probably more
familiar with is no less offensive.
These are the things that wear
mothers out. Few mothers mind SER
iously the work OF keeping a home 60
ing-what they do mind, the thing
that tires and kills them. Is worry.
Much Of the worry cannot be avoided,
but much Of it ran. and the weari-
some jangling Of quarrelsou1e chill
dren is one Of them.

cells
Navy Isn't Excited
Our navy dirieible experts do not
attach much significance To the new
Eckener patent. The German Zeppc-
lin expert must first find some helium
or similar non-inflammable carrying
gas, and none is available in Europe.
If our own army and navy blimps and
dirIgiblcs were force 10 ccOnOmizc on
hclium they would undoubtedly be
built with special helium cells at vital
points. Tho idea is al old onc but
our own dirigiblc experts point out
that il is much better to use 100 per
cent helium than only 5 or 10 per
cent helium.
About tho time Eckcncr made tho
application here there was marked
patent activity. The Zeppelin concern,
after being frightened by success Of
4 rival firm III obtaining patents.
took on a staff Of about ID person.
To handle its patent interests.
Application for the patent III ques-
ton was filed Nov. q. 1922. and the
first action was taken by the patent
office the following August. calling at
teatlon TO prior patents. Eckcncr's az
torney responded Il year later. and the
patent office replied in October. 1929,
rejecting some claims and allowing
| others. Eckencr's amendment was
filed in August. 1925. and rejected N
September. Again the applicant wait
cd nearly a year. and the next set 7:
claims was partly rejected III o.
tober. 1926.
Eckener filed a new set of claims IN
August, 1927. and III October the ex-
amincrs finally rejected most because
they could see nothing patentablc IL
them. An appeal was taken and 4
hearing held last January. Eckenci
eventually Cancelled the rejected
claims. and the patent was granted
in August.

nomination.
Sunday night dinners in Second
avenue Hungarian cafes are frequent
~ interrupted by the arrival of a
wedding procession. The native cere-
monial Is invariably performed. while
the tourists look on with wide eyes.
The bridal party arrives under the
proyerbial canopy. which resembles
4 small awning. Behind them Is the
chanting dignitary who will perform
the ceremony and then follows a
great parade Of relatives, some sing
inc and some mourning. All efforts
at feeding the customers come to a
sudden halt. for a wedding party
means big business for the cafe Sc
lectcd-it means that there will be
feastlng among many people for many
hours.
However. the mere transients are
generally SO intrigued by the novelty
that they are little for the incon-

selection OF East Side dining places he
can come upon such a wedding al
most any Sunday night-this being
chosen for its holiday significance.

Washington. Sept. 25.-At about the

world the u. S. patent Office was

1t also reveals that If II took Or.
Eckcner seven years to obtain tins

himself and his lawyers than OF tn
patent office. A patent runs II years

only upon the actual issuance. Onf
cannot assert with assurance that Or
Eckcner was following this course
