go into the baskets made ready by
mothers. One of the great advantages
of such lunch rooms IS that they pro-
vide hot soups, meats and other dishes
which, in cold weather, meet the needs
of the pupils more satisfactorily than
box or basket lunches. Then, too, the
children have a variety of dishes and
a change from their regular style of
cookery which lends zest to the meals.
Also, it frequently makes them appre-
ciate home cooking at very young age
providing the home cooking Is the
sort to appeal to appetites in the way
familiarized by the saying ''pies" (and
other Dishes like mother used to
make"
There are times when the dishes pro-
vided at school lunch rooms can be
thriftily augmented by foods brought
in lunch baskets. 1t often happens that
there are left-overs from home meals
which can be made into sandwiches
enough TO satisfy one child, but not
enough to satisfy more appetites. Or
there may be slice of cake, or a
piece of pie, or some other dessert edible
which is just the thing for the home
prepared lunch box, although totally IN
adequate for the family.
Whenever there are such left-overs,
the child can save pennies by taking
whatever it is, and buying the other
things to round out the lunch from
what the school lunch offers. This is
method followed by many mothers. 1t
is catered to by heads Of school
lunch rooms. Sometimes the only need
ed addition to be bought is a glass of
milk or bowl of hot soup.

Lunch Rooms and Home Boxes

Mothers who have children in scht

Mothers who have children in schools
where there are lunch rooms can
scarcely realize the convenience it af-
fords. In emergencies, even those
mothers who are accustomed to
put up some portion of their chill
drens lunches, can tage advantage Of
the school menus and know the child
will be we'll provided for. Those moth
ers who have their children regularly
patronize the lunch room seldom know
what trouble they are saved, for school
lunches which are home /-epared, prove
puzzling problems to e.lose who see
that lunches are satisfying, have enough
variety, and cost little.
Speaking of cost. it is well for moth
ers to acquaint themselves with what
the school lunch menus are and the
prices of foods. They cannot know
what sums to give their children, other
wise, and be assured they get enough.
yet do not spend too much. The extra
money generally goes for extra sweets.
While persons require certain amount
of them it is the extra which Is not

Electricity Celebrates.
(New York Times.)

(NeW YOrK I1meSD
 It was in 1879 that Edison succeeded in pro- ducing his first successful incandescent lamp. Of what use it without electric energy? The ques- tion had occurred to him long before he embarked on the experiments that led to carbonized cotton thread which glowed when it electrically heat ed in avacuum. He knew it was impossible to light whole city with batteries even with the crude dynamos of the day. From the first he had decided to invent not merely a lamp but system of cleo tric lighting well suited for the home for the street and factory With characteristic boldness and imagination he planned the Pearl Street station and thus became the first electric engineer, in our sense of the term Dynamos switches, safety fuses junction boxes fixtures for lights-everything came out of that fertile, restless mind of his. Without a precedent to guide him he laid down principles of which the burying of cables underground is but one that have central-staton engineers ever since He created therefore not merely lamp but the first electric public utility. And the wonder of it is he created it single handed.
 When the lights of fifty-nine customers were turned exactly half a century ago in a square mile of downtown New York Edison declared that the occasion marked the transition from one epoch Ito another At the time the observation at- tributed to the natural enthusiasm of an inventor in his thirty-ffth year, the sort of flourish that one expects at the completion of any public enter prise But now that the fiftieth anniversary of his greatest achievement is to be celebrated it is evident that he saw more clearly than any of his contemporaries how electricity would transform so- ciety Trolley and subways instead of horses Edison lamps in place of kerosene and gas, motors driving everything from sewing machines to bat tleships energy on tap everywhere like water-a new epoch had indeed dawned when the switch was thrown in Pearl Street Sept 4, 1882

NATIONAL CONVENTIONS.

Sam Blythe who has written much politics about the twenty National conventions which he has attended has become confused. He is now convinced that conventions not representative He declares that they have become bowling mobs and are carried this way or that by ballyhoo noisy parades and other hypnotic demonstrations.
 The writer has not attended so many conven- tons as Sam has but he has been at enough of them to know that the marching of the delegates with State banners and pictures and flags and music has little to do with final results The discussions among the delegates as the conventions proceed are far more effective than the shows
 Of course most conventions chiefly settled in the primaries down among the people at their homes Gov Smith and Gov Roosevelt were nom- mated in the State primary elections and State con- ventions. President Hoover was likewise so nom- mated in 1928 In 1892 he won the nomination by default No one else of prominence wanted it. He might have been nominated anyhow, but no one went into State primaries and conventions and contested with him.
 Probably Sam Blythe had different ideas than the conventions about the party choices and IS alibng himself. If so the Chicago conventions were better representative of public sentiment than Sam They nominated for President the candidates the larger percentage of the Republicans and Demo- crats of the country wanted them to nominate The Chicago conventions were actually representative of
  nothing to do with it. They were the natural result of the yen for show. They were even less effective than roofing at baseball game, for the delegates knew what they meant to do.
 Occasions when National conventions have not been representative of the people have been when they have been deadlocked. Then the con- ventions became deliberatve bodies They then talked things over and nominated candidates after the convention shows There were no great demonstrations for John w, Davis or Warren C. Harding.
 Convention demonstrations often simply tri- butes to the personal worth and popularity of those in whose honor they made. More States par tcipated in the Ritchie demonstration than for any other candidate placed in nomination at Chicago All or nearly so, of the State banners were in it. That was the when Gov. Alfred E. Smith was placed in nomination at San Francisco in 1920 Neither of these had chance of being nom- mated at the times mentioned but they had the love and respect of the delegates.

PROBABLY WILL FAIL.

It is said that tremendous effort will be made by those Wall Street and Broadway concerns some times called the international Bankers to put Hoover over" if they should become convinced that it can be done It said that was the real purpose of the recent visit to the United States of Ambas- sador Mellon and the President of the Bank of England.
 However the International Bankers" tion with the proposal may become too we'll known to make possible The people of the country are not very friendly with those bankers who were admittedly responsible for floating billions of dollars of foreign securities in this countryat large profits for themseves-securities that are now only worth few cents the dollar if anything These almost worthless loans contributed not a little to the severity of the depression that has prevailed for three years.

 ISLAND SAFE.

There seems to be disposition in the East to accept true the representations of Alaskans and Federal officials that the brown bears of Alaska are not in danger of extinction, and that Admiralty Island might continue to be used for useful pur- poses.
 While somewat fictitious, the following editorial paragraph from the New York Times which at one time lent encouragement to the Holzworth propa- ganda for bear sanctuary on Admiralty Island is significant:
 According to Government official the
 Alaska brown bears Admiraly Island

CHAPTER 6. MYSTERY FROM THE PAST

5s At nine o'clock on the morning of August d6 Jervis Weare was married to Nan Forsyth in St. Eartholomew's church. Outside it is a peculiarly ugly church. And when Nan passed from the bright morning sunshine into the dusk Of the interior she found it smell ed of musty pew cushions and var nish-a very depressing smell.
 MT. Page gave her away disap- provingly, and he and the sexton were the only witnesses. She look ed once at Jervis and saw him as a tall, aloof shadow She could guess at the frown she could not see. When he took her hand and put the ring on it, his was hot and dry. He rammed the ring down, and there it was

 He reacted with feeling oi acute annoyance.
 DO you mind considering my position for a moment? DO you really expect me to marry a girl and leave her penniless? Why should you have married me if you were going to take up position like this?"
 Why? Nan could have laughed and wept at the question. If they had been in the Palace of Truth she would have said "Oh, my cear Why? To save you from being robbed To save you from the sort of girl you might have married. To save you from pick ing someone up off the streets But since these were things to bs hidden at any cost, she frowned looked at him bravely, and said;

 You are thinking it's very strange that I should ask questions about MT. Leonard, but I've got reason. Will you please tell me where he has been for the last ten years?"
 Why do you want to know?"
 Because think I saw hir, once about ten years ago"
 Why, the photograph doesn't even show his face!"

 The Senates most recent mountebank, Hughey IP. Long, continues his "soak-the-rch' campaign in Louisiana. He employs the threadbare words of the demagogue of all ages We will have evolution or revolution in the next five years" he shouts to his credulous hearers. We must break up the big fortunes"
 And he has "plan"-they all have plan that, like the nostrum of the quack, will cure all ills. "If Congress would adopt my pan," he asserts with fierce vehemence, nobody would have to pay taxes but these big fortunes
 Just like that. It is very smple-soak the rich!
 Alas, Senator Long seems not to have learned the fact that wealth is not, and can never be, a static quantity He is of those queer individuals who seems to believe that if all the wealth ot the world were equally distributed all would be we'll
 Let MT. Long look to Russia, where this idea has been more fully tried out than anywhere else. The Soviets have had to compromise with the capl- talistc system Fire and blood and a tyranny un- eoualed nave not been able to crush out the desire to accumulate for oneself And so Russia has em- braced a new plan, plan which judges the value of the achievement by the result This is the cap- talist fashion, and human nature being what It is is the normal method.

 He accounts for this condition, in part at least, by the fact that the young voters are familiar with the devastating failures of Prohibition, while they have no first hand information concerning the old days when the saloon institution.
 Of course, MT Sullivan is cognizant of the fact that there has been a very significant swing from dry to wet among those who older and who have observed the working of both Prohibition and the legal manufacture wholesale and retail of liquor and prefer the old system to the new.
