Great Man. Bird Returns.

That ignorance gives birth to fear
Old Mother Nature.

This is just as true with human folk
as with the little people of the Green
Forest and the Green Meadows. The
unknown seems always to be regarded
with suspicion, which springs from
fear. Perhaps this is just as we'll. It
is better to be afraid of something
harmless than not to fear something
dangerous.

FOOD PROBLEMS
BY SALLY MONROE.
Fruit for Beauty.

Fruit is still considered a good table
decoration. One idea is to use an an
tique fruit set, consisting of big fruit
bowl for the center and four smaller
dishes, compotes by name, to stand at
the four corners of the table grouped
around the center bowl.
The big bowl holds pile Of fruit,
and the little dishes hold each little
fruit. For instance, the big bowl might
hold tangerines, pears, black and red
and green grapes, red bananas and red,
green and yellow apples. One little dish
then might hold a perfect bunch Of
black grapes and red apple; second
might hold a red banana and a pear:
a third might hold green apple and
a tangerine, and the fourth red grapes
and yellow apple.
Then here are given fruit dishes,
modern 'uctions. though they are

glass. They are altogether lovely, and
they, too, are made in sets, with big
dish for the center. and smaller dishes
to surround it with either fruit or
candles in them.
There is big center fruit dish, with
candlesticks to match it in the same
color and design.

COAL PULVERIZING AND
LIQUIFYING DESCRIBED
Indiana State GeolOgist Brings Re-
port From Conference.

DR.. w. N. Logan, Indiana state
geologiSt, who returned today from
the International Coal conference at
Pittsburgh, described how scientists
have mastered the art of transport
ing pulverized coal in a pipe line
and liquifying coal for use as a
motor fuel. These achievements
were described at the conference.
DR.. Logan represented the In
diana conservation commission, and
discussed Indiana Goals and their
utilization, and also the possibil-
tiles of low temperature carboniza-
ton.
A German scientist read a paper,
he said, and later discussed before
the meeting how he had been able
to pulverize COAL then transport it
through a pipe line for a short
distance. Hydrogenizing or liquify-
ing coal by adding hydrogen and
obtaining oil which successfully
operates a motor car, was explained
in detail at conference, and opens a
vast field for new motor fuel, in the
opinion of the Indiana geologist.
One of the important discussions
which concerns all coal fields dealt
with the excess production. of
bituminous coal.
