while the twins, each with an arm
around the others waist, sauntered
slowly down the stairs, softly singing,
as the two men came briskly up the
fagstone path.
But Ginger had not gone to the
kitchen. Not all the way. She planted
herself just beyond the base Of the
circular staircase, out of sight, but

The twins, cool, white and smiling,

WHAT NUT OLEO
is COMPOSED OF

The following clipping taken from
a recent issue of the Farmer & Farm,
Stock & home was sent into the Amer
fcan for publication by subscriber:
The principal vegetable oil used in
the manufacture of oleomargarine is
coconut oil.
CocOnut oil is made from copra,
and copra is product produced UNI
der unusual and somewhat distress
ing circumstances when you think
of eating it, or anything made out of
it. COpra is a by-product in the pro-
duction of marketable coconuts. 1t
is made on the island where COCO
nuts grow-the East and West Indies,
the Philippines, and hundreds of
smaller tropical islands.
In making copra, the unmarketable
nuts are split open with machete,
but not quite through. The halves
are left hanging together on one side
like hinge. They are then turned
with the meat side outward and strung
over rope stretched between two
trees to dry in the tropical sun, fully
exposed to all of the flies and other
insects for which the tropics are
noted-or cursed. In time the meat
dries up in the intense heat and
shrivels so that it may be easily
scooped out of the SHE'LL This dried
| coconut meat is what is known as
copra. After it is scOoped out of the
shells. it is hauled or carried to the
sea shore, and piled on the wharf to
await the arrival of copra boat. =
Boats which load copra touch at
many of the islands which produce it
at only nfrequent intervals. Copra
| is loaded out from some of the larg-
| err islands every two months, from
| others every six months, and some
| of the more isolated islands wait a
whole year for copra boat. And
| there lies the cOpra on the wharf
waiting with the hot tropical sur
beating down on it. Insects buzz
above it, the sun cooks it, it steams
stews; and, some say, begins to move
around by the time the boat comes.
The smell of this mass is sicken-
ing, and there is a saying that cop
ra boat can find its way about the
islands without a compass, merely by
smell. Even the ships that pass in
the night" can tell when they are
passing an island where copra is
awaiting shipment.
After copra reaches the factory, the
coconut oil used in so-called butte,
substitutes is pressed out of it be-
tween heated rollers. 1t is then run
into large watts and quantity of sodl
oil is eaten away by the sodium. The

III" MOTHERS DAY
PLANNED MAY 10
Invitations Soon to Go to Mothers
Of More Than 11,0O0 Students
at Minnesota.

The program for the annual Moth
er's Day at the University of Mimi
esota campus May 10 when hundreds
of mothers from all over the state
and from many states or the
union will be present, will deviate
widely from the plan Of previous
years.
Because the Northrop Memorial
Auditorium has been open since
year ago it will be possible to center
most of the Mothers Day activities in
that one building.
The morning will be devoted to
visiting classes or student homes and
meeting student friends as in past
years, and at noon the mothers will be
guests of their sons or daughters.
Beginning at 2 p. m. a play will be
given in the auditorium by one of
the undergraduate dramatic casts.
This will Last until four o'clock, at
which time tea will be served in a
number of booths in the auditorium
lobby aid in special rooms in that
building. At p. m. the mothers will
be asked to reassemble in the main
auditorium for the only address of
the day, which will be delivered by
President L. D. Coffman.
The dinner will be served in the
University Armory this year and will
be accompanied only by entertainment
features, not by speaking. The de-
cision of the committee to invite sons
and daughters as we'll as mothers to
the dinner made necessary the shift
from the Minnesota Union, which is
not large enough to accommodate so
large crowd. 1t was only on account
of the lack of room in the Union that
previous dinners had been open only
to mothers.
Invitations are also to be sent to
faculty members, of whom con-
siderable attendance is expected.
Formal invitations will soon be
mailed to all mothers of students, a
list which will include names in al
most every state of the Union, III
many of the Canadian provinces, and
in a score or more of foreign coun-
tries

WASHINGTON LETTER
Continued from Page u

the communists. and others less vio-
lent, report that the tremendous pub
Lefty given to recent riots of the job
less served as a boom to the radical
types making specially of capitaliz-
ing on unrest. 1t Is reported that a
May Day demonstration will be staged
in front of the White House. but the
government officials are not worried
over the effect.
The current report that President
Hoover contemplates several changes
in the Federal Tariff Commission is
followed with close interest on Capt.
toll Hill. 1t is said that this agency
won tremendous favor with the law
makers during the last fifteen months
siege with the tariff legislation. 1t
is obvious that the President will find
his candidates subjected to a severe
grilling as to their qualifications, so
that he may eventually choose the
easiest way and reappoint the in
cumbents. This policy would insure
curtailment of attacks on candidates
and on the Administration.
Ostensibly full publicity is given to
each days proceeding of the Senate
and House conferees on the tariff
Yet, it is known that the true story
| of the compromises effected behind
the scenes of the committee room will
never become public property. These
| spokesman for the two houses are al
ways appraised of the conditions under
which the various amendments and
| items were incorporated in the tariff
bill. There is little, if any, partisan
feeling in revealing these secrets be-
cause trading involves members of all
political parties with equal force.
| In connection with the tariff anG
vote trading, there is an interesting
anecdote which bears the mark of re.
liability. 1t concerns Senator. who
is known as deeply religious mar
and at the same time an astute pOliti
clan. At a time when issues were de-
cided by single vote it is related
that this legislator on the eve of bal
loting prayed frevently for guidance
in his problem. He had pledged his
vote to am increase in one commOdit!
which formed one of the principal in
dustries of his state and was unde
cided about voting for an increase OF
another item because of tariff prin
ciple. The following day he cast hi!
vote for an increased duty, which TIT
cynics said was in payment for
trade" Incidentally, this Senator
vote brought victory to the high tariff
forces.
