ness conditions will look better
''about the first of the year" and
1888 will be marked by "a great
improvement" over 1882.
This is the opinion of John E,
Edgerton, chairman of the board
of the National Association OF
manufacturers, and president of
the Lebanon tTenn0 Woolen
Mills, as expressed in an interview
today. Edgerton is one Of the most
widely known business leaders. He
said:
81 see in evidence right now
an accelerated spirit of cooper
alton on the part of the Amer
lean business and political lead
ership. This is a good sign.
PATRIOTIC SPIRIT"
II believe we have finally de-
velOped, after three years of
confusion, a sort of patriotic
spirit akin to that which
gripped us in the war days.
believe the people on the whole
finally have accepted the fact
that the depression is com.
mon possession and that sue
Cessful resistance to it is a COM
mon duty"
Edgerton, discussing present
conditions, said the cotton indus
try in the South sis doing 'ine."
He added that, so far as he
knows, all the cotton mills are
operating on a full time basis,
some employing three shifts. He
said:
"The two industries in the
nation now operating on a nor
NAL basis are the boot and
shoe and the textile (cottan,
wool, and silk.
HELPFUL FACTORS
"The helpful business factors
I see are these: 1, the improved
spirit Of cooperation; 2, the
imminence of a new admins
tratiOn; 3, the evident deter
minatiOn on growing part Of
the nations political leadership
to effect economies in public
expenditures which will be
reflected in greatly reduced tax
bills which have been crushing
the life out Of business and
the people; and 4, the fact that
the depression has already
PASSED the average Of preceding
depresSiOns in history"

And remember, for these benefits you are
paying about half of what you would ordi-

is due to three factors: (D, The ability to

WOMAN WRITER | PLANS ANOTHER l MAYAN TRIP
Cleveland Girl 10 Seek More Mexican
 Relics

Cleveland = (UP) - It's a foolish wife who devotes her time to taking care of her husband, according to Mrs Edna Robb Web. ster. whose book Occasional Wife" was recently released.
 ''When a wife follows her hus- band around trying to make him happy, nine times out of ten she
 is making him miserable" the novelist stated. And because she practices what ] she breaches, Mrs Webster Will leave her husband and children in February and sail to Yucatan on her second trip into the interior to seek relics of the ancient May an civilization.
 During most of it's trip, the ex- pedition will study the primitive life in the region, but Mrs Web. ster plans to be in Merida, capital city of Yucatan, for the annual carnival in March. we plan to study the contrast between primitive and cultural life in the region" Mrs Webster
 said. "Hotels in Merida are veritable palaces with Moorish columns and colonades. Contrary to general be- lief in other countries, the higher type citizens of Merida are well educated, highly cultured people.
 "There were more millionaires in Merida in 1915 than in any other city of it's size in the world" she said.
 Mrs Webster is recognized as one of the few good authorities on the subject of the ancient Mayans in the United States. When she isn't in Yucatan or Guatemala, she constantly is doing further re-
 search wherever she can find any
 material related to the subject.

\ Many home-makers fall to recog- nize the fact that starch appears in four distinct and different types of cooked foods. This lack of tn- formation is responsible for poor ly balanced meals. Many of, the starch foods are so differentsin tex ture that it is possible to serve a very starchy meal without 1t being distasteful.
 starchy vegetables such as po- tatoes. cream sauces and cream soups, breadstuffs and cakes. starchy buildings such as tapioca and cornstarch, and the cereals these are all sources of starch and yet have completely different tex lures.
 Starch in it's raw form is largely indigestible and cannot be used by the body. Consequently the why's and wherefores of starch cookery are most important.
 Heat Bursts Grain
 Thorough cooking converts the starch into a form of sugar which can be digested and assimilated. Unless starchy foods contain a large amount of water in their composition, water or some other liquid must be used In cooking them. For instance, potatoes are composed of considerable water and may be baked without the ad- dition of liquid. But cereals, or any cereal product. must have the addition of liquid in order that the starch grains can burst when sub- jected to heat.
 Starch as contained in vegeta- bles and whole grains is stored in an infinite number of cells. Tne walls of these cells are formed ,of a substance called cellulose. Heat is almost the only medium which can break down this plant fiber, or cellulose. In cooking, the ceilu- lose unites with some of the, water and becomes softened and digesti- ble. This explains why vegetables containing a large amount Of eel lulose require longer cooking pe- riod.
 Ground forms of starch such as cornstarch and the various Hours, are actually starch grains. Care must be taken in combining them with liauids that the mixture IS perfectly free from Jumps of par tially cooked starch.
 When starch grains are mixed with liquid and heated they absorb water, swell, burst and form a gelatinous mass which thickens the |liouid surrounding each grain Careless handling will cause tne
