Poor Refrigeration
 In Lincoln's Time
"Frigid Era" Tells How Crest Emancipation Lost Hi
 Taste for Fav0rite Dish of Stewed Rabbit

Dayton, Ohio, Feb 1S A new Lincoln story. maybe . day late as far as birthday anecdotes are con- cerned, but timely just the same, came to light here to-day witt, pub lication of the February issues of Frigid Era, magazine of Frigidaire Corporation.
 Attested by Lucia E. Lyons, of Washington, Ill, the story has to do with . lecture the great emancfpa- tor delivered to the best cook of my acquaintance" on the funda- mentals of refrigeration.
 Never again." So goes this latest Lincoln story, would he eat q bite of her cooking, wrathful Abraham Lincoln told Mrs Gideon Garst, as breakfastless he prepared to ride away from her home after having sleepless night nursing sick stomach.
 Spoiled rabbit, served the pre- vious evening at the Garst home, laid the foundation for Lincoln's $ lifelong aversion to rabbit, brought forth q lecture upon the danger in contaminated food which all Metas mora, Illinois, where the incident occurred, never forgot.
 Tn the days when he was an it. inerant lawyer, Lincoln spent cer- tain portion of his time in Metamora then . county seat. Usually he stayed at the home of friends. On this par ticular occasion he stopped with Gideon 0arst. whose wife, Lincoln had once remarked, was the best cook of his acquaintance.
 But good cooking Is wasted on tainted food. For this particular meal his hostess served stewed rab- bit. The rabbit had been killed sev- eral days before, and hung up out- doors. A spring thaw caused the temperatures to rise and the rab- bit became slightly tainted, but not enough for careful Mrs Garst to de- tect the fact.
 That night Lincoln grew very i'll and suffered agonizing stomach pains. When all the list of old time
The Waterbury Democrat., 1931-02-13

remedies had been tried and Abe had recovered from tho attack he waxed wroth enough to tell Mrs Garst that he would never again eat one bite of her cooking. Too, he delivered her q lecture on the fund.- afnentals of refrigeration. Then he mounted his horse and rode else- where for breakfast. And there he repeated his lecture on refrigeration.
 His aversion for rabbit never left him. Once he went hungry for sev- era1 days because there was no food available but rabbit, Tn the White House where an acquaintance brought some choice rabbits to him he retold his story of his Metamora experience. History records that Lincoln was meticulous about re- frigeration in the White House. Ice from the Kennebec river in Maine was brought to Washington nt his behest because this particular ice was clear and clean"

100000 VISIT
ABROAD FOR
$4,000 GAIN
More Than $500, ,OOO,O 900 Left
in Foreign Countries by
American Tourists in 1890

Times have been hard" and
unemployment widespread, but
that did not prevent several mil
lion Americans from touring for
eign lands by motor and rail last
year, leaving close to 100000 900
abroad.
Government agencies in compil-
ing tourist expenditures for the
year have been surprised to find
an actual increase in the number
of Americans going to Canada,
Mexico, the West Indies and to
Europe, it was learned today.
Tourists Show Gain
There was a gain in overseas
tourists by about $1,000, although
slight decrease in the number
of European travellers who vent
first class. Overseas tourists
numbered approximately 100000.
Final figures for CANADIAN travel
have not been compiled, but there
was a substantial increase in the
number of automobiles entering
the Dominion, as compared with
the 4,508, 809 motor cars officially
permitted to enter that country
in 1929.
Passion Play Helps
The Passion Play of Oberam-
mergau and the tour of the Gold
Star Mothers we're chiefly reSpon-
sible for the increase in Euro
pean travel. There were $500
Gold Star mothers in the party,
which, with relatives and friends,
probably increased the number to
1000. 1t was estimated that
$4,000 visited the Passion Play
from the United States.
Unemployment Cause
Unemployment was believed to
have contributed somewhat to
travel, particularly to Canaoa by
automobile. There was the usual
movement of students abroad,
travelling on their general educa-
tional allowances. School teach
ers, working on fixed salaries,
form a big block of the travelling
class during the summer season.
QueStionnaires returned to
Commerce Department Officials
studying the tourist traffic, indi-
Gated there is another class so
rich that heavy speculative losses
end decreased dividends or other
returns from business had no eff
feet upon their desire to tour
foreign lands.
Cuba is Popular
About 125,OOO of the overseas
travellers went to the West Indies,
chiefly to Cuba, from 10000 to
$4,000 to the Far East and a
smaller number to South Amer
lea.
From 1923 to 1880 American
tourists have expended more than
$500, 100000 in foreign countries
