THE ICE INDUSTRY

The public is eager to know about
the ice industry, because it is be-
coming conscious of the Importance
of refrigeration to daily health and
comfort, according to Leslie c.
Smith, secretary, National Associa-
ton of Ice Industries.
'"The ice industry today ranks
among the leading American busi-
nesses," Mr.. Smith states, land the
American people unfailingly are in
terested in big business. Approx
mately 61,0OO,OOO tons of ice were
produced in this country in 1929
and marketed at the conserVatiVely
estimated figure of $44O, 100000. The
per capital consumption of ice was
in 1929 about $50 pounds. Over 12,-
100000 ice refrigerators are now in
use, far in excess of the number of
refrigerators used with all other
refrigerants combined. Ice is the
tried-and-true, most popular refrig-
Grant.
Recent statistics show that ice
is used only in approximately half
of the homes in the United States,
about 43 per cent of the homes hav-
ing no refrigeration at all. In about
80 per cent of the homes ice is used
only during warm weather, and in
only 20 per cent is it used continu-
Ously the year around.

SUNDAY FEAST
SEEN PASSING
Housewives of Today Like Riding
Better Than Cooking

That fine old custom of the boun-
teous Sunday dinner, heavy with
roasts, dressings and puddings, is
about to pass into the limbo of for
gotten things.
The American housewife finally
has realized that it was a fine old
custom for everyone except herself
and that she, after working six days
week, was doing double duty to
prepare the Sunday feast.
The tendency toward lighter, more
easily prepared, but no less pleasant
meals on Sundays is noted in Good
Housekeeping magazine which sug-
gests list of Sunday dinner menus
to be prepared largely on Saturday,
leaving the housewife to spend but
few minutes in the kitchen on Sun
day.
The automobile was the chief fac
tor in breaking down the conviction
that Sunday wasn't Sunday without
a heavy and laboriously prepared
dinner, observes Miss Katherine A.
Fisher, director of Good Housekeep-
ing Institute.
When families began to plan Sun
day motor trips they began to realize
that a appetizing meal was as
pleasant as a groaning board at
home. Soon they began to see that
even when the meal was to be at
home, restful Sunday for the wife
and mother was preferable to steam
ing hours spent in the kitchen.
Sunday is our day of rest, and
housekeepers should not be expect
ed," says Miss Fisher. Sunday din
ner can be simple and leisurely, and
yet as adequate and appetizing as an
other during the week.
For Sunday dinners which can be
prepared almost entirely while the
housewife is doing her usual Satur-
day work in the kitchen, the Good
Housekeeping experts suggest such
combinations as:
BAKED string beans with bacon,
potato cakes, stuffed green pepper
and egg salad, ice cream and ginger
ale.
2-Chicken and asparagus or toast,
sliced tomatoes with French dress
ing, rhubarb tapioca, cream.
3-Kidney stew, sautee sweet po-
tatoes, buttered peas, orange salad
with Roquefort and cream cheese
balls, mayonnaise dressing, crack
ers, coffee.
4-Chicken and vegetable ring
with mushroom sauce, buttered spin
ach, apple sauce on sponge cake,
whipped cream.

ST. GEORGES

The Ladies' Aid Society of St
Georges M. E. church will hold its
regular meeting in the Sunday school
room on the evening of April oath
Mrs. Name West, Mrs. Katie Hud-
son and Mrs. Bernice West Will
serve as hostess.
Rev. G. S. Thomas, pastor OF ST
Georges church for the past four
years, moved to his new field OF Ia
bor last week. Our prayers have
followed him that this year may be
the happiest and most successful
year of his ministry, for we believe
that, according to the life that he
has lived while in our midst and the
service that he has rendered to the
church, there is none other more
worthy of Divine blessings than Mr..
Thomas.
Our new minister, Rev. o. H. Con-
nelly, also moved into our midst last
week. We greet him with our pray
ers and trust that his success this
year may exceed any previous year
of his ministerial life. He preached
a very impressive sermon Sunday
morning, gave us many good
thoughts on which to ponder. Let
us not only think about them but
apply them to our own personal
lives and there is no doubt but that
we shall have made such a spirit
ual growth to the extent that we
will be in the proper attitude to re-
ceive that which he shall give out TO
us next Sunday.

PLANTS DO NO HARM
IN SLEEPING ROOMS

The belief that plants should be
removed from sleeping rooms at
night is entirely without foundation,
according to DR.. A. F. Woods, direc-
tor of scientific work in the United
States Department of Agriculture.
In many hospitals it is a regular
practice to remove flowers and
plants from the rooms at night, be-
cause it is thought that they are in
some way injurious to the patients.
Instead of plants being harmful,
they are beneficial, says Doctor
Woods, During the day they give
off oxygen and moisture and take up
carbon dioxide. At night these pro-
cesses slow down and small amounts
of carbon dioxide are given off, but
a whole greenhouse full of plants
would not give off enough carbon
dioxide to injuriously affect the
composition of the air.
The only occasion for removing
plants and flowers from sleeping
rooms is in the case of poisonous
plants and in cases of people who
suffer from hay fever. In these
cases, explains Doctor Woods, plants
and flowers to which the patient is
sensitive should not be in the room
at any time.

eff the 80 per cent who use ice
only in the summer would become
convinced of the necessity of using
ice the year around and if the so per
cent who do not use ice at all could
be educated into the use of ice even
in the summer, think what a tre-
mendous increase in the market for
ice would be developed. The present
immense ice tonnage could be more
than doubled.
Progress, however, is being made
in informing the public on the many
advantages of continuous ice usage
and the average annual gains of the
industry at large are per cent in
tonnage. Ice is being used for
many more purposes than for food
protection alone and new uses are
steadily being discovered"

Sunday School Lesson
BY
Rev. Hugh T. Stevenson.

Jacob, a cheat and supplanter up to
that hour, and henceforth he was
to be known as Israel for as prince
he had prevailed with God. He was
ready then to meet his brother and
make ample restitution in an effort
to wipe out the memory of his former
treacherouS actions He sent forward
the choicest possessions from his flock
in such manner that ESau was APP
peased and a complete reconciliation
was made between the two brothers.
ESau probably was moved by the
changed appearance and walk OF his
brother to that extent that he fell
upon his neck and gave him the kiss Of
reconciliation.
Reaching Shechem, where his grand
father had pitched his first tent and
erected his first altar, Jacob settled
down, bought a piece Of ground and
erected an altar dedicated to the wor-
ship Of Jehovah. AS a servant of God,
the former Supplanter enjoyed the peace
of his fellowship with God. But the
Transforming power was not completed.
The discipline OF exile had failed to
teach Jacob the folly Of parental parti-
atty. He showed his affection and devo-
ton for his son Joseph to that extent
that he lost him through the treachery of
his own sons. He reaped again some
fruitage of his sins. But the mys-
ferrous providence of God brought
Joseph to the throne of power in Egypt
in an hour, when the perils of famine
had forced Jacob to send his sons for
| food supplies into Egypt. There Joseph
| recognized his brethren and obtained
from them the facts about his father
and brother. Finally Jacob was brought
with his family and fiocks under the
protection of Joseph. There in Egypt
the work of Transforming the sinful and
selfish man was completed. The aged
father enjoyed the fellowship of his
son and his protection until the final
end came to him.
The experience of Jacob teaches us
the folly of treachery and sin. Let us
seek first the Kingdom of God and
His righteousness and we will obtain
every needed blessing of life. If Jacob
! found 1t paid to give the Lord a 1.-THE,
| how much ought We to give, consid-
ering how He has given unto US sal
walton and the fellowship of the church
in helping Him develop His kingdom
among men. Let us work out with
fear and trembling the salvation that
He has first worked into our lives so
that we may be transformed into His
| likeness to that extent that men may
see we have been with Jesus and
learned Of Him.
