FARLEY HOST
Store Operators Will Meet
in World Fair City
This Week.
By United Press

By United Press
CHICAGO, Sept. A 10000, 900
industry, serving more than $780,
900 will be represented when Piggy
Wiggly operators meet here Sept.
6, 7 and 8.
The operators own their own
Piggy Wiggly stores and maintain
them under franchises issued by the
Piggy Wiggly Corporation, of which
Albert H. Merrill is president.
These food merchants will hold
their convention at the Del Prado
hotel. A general program for the
convention was outlined recently by
E. w. BaSse, who heads a chain of
Piggy Wiggly stores in Texas.
Basse is president of the National
Piggy Wiggly Operators Associa-
ton.
One of the headlights of the con-
vention will be an address by G. G.
Corbaley, adviser to Charles j.
Brand, food administrator of the
national recovery administration.
Corbaley is president also of the
American Institute of Food Distri-
button.
In addition to the speech of
Corbaley there will be an address by
Merrill. Because of the close rela-
tionship of the corporation and the
store owners, and because of rap
idly changing conditions in the food
industry, the address is looked for
ward to with interest. Morrill, also
is presi0etn of the Kroger Grocery
and Baking Company.
Speakers of national prominence
in the food distribution and manu-
featuring industry will be on the
program. The meeting promises to
be one of great interest, not only
to those attending the convention,
but to the public as we'll, for one of
the principal detectives will be the
fostering of economical processes of
distribution to lower the costs of
foodstuffs to consumers.
At the present time approximate
ly 5000 stores are operated under
the Piggy Wiggly system by 300
owners.

Painting and Modernizing
Found Profitable in
Depression Days.
By Times Special

By ItmeS Specl0I
WASHINGTON, Aug. 25.-Re-
novizing is writing it's own golden
reward-paying back the man who
has repaired and redecorated his
property.
From the skyScraper manager to
the small home owner, assert lead
erS in the American paint, varniSh
and lacquer industries, the man
who has painted up and repaired
his property at depression prices of
labor and materials today is reap
ing harvest of revenues, dividends
and generous appraisal of his hold
ingS.
Throughout the country. however,
in every community, there are
homes, apartments and Office build
ingS by the score that are drastical-
ly in need of rejuvenating coats of
paint and life-prolonging repairs.
Structural Changes First
The Save the Surface campaign,
commenting on the value of under
taking this type of work, points out
that it should be planned in two
classif1cations:
l. Structural canges.
2. Repairs, requirements, sand
blasting, painting, kalsomining and
the like.
In the case of the home, whether
it be private dwelling or apartment,
the latter comes first in Importance.
The power of modernization to re-
tain old tenants and to attract new
ones and again has time been dem
onstrated.
Paint Before Leasing
In this connection, leading New
York apartment house operator,
specializing in high class buildings,
said:
1--WE have found that repainting
in neutral tints has been the most
practical form of decoration. 1t
has been said that in undermining
apartments it is better to postpone
painting until the tenant has signed
a lease, but we have found that,
if the decoration is finished in adj
vance, he is more likely to be at
tracted."
Painting, statistics show, holds a
dominant place in maintenance and
modernization and is the most eff
Gent means of achieving the maxi
mum results in appearance with the
minimum expense.

Painting New WaIlboar6l

Wallboard makes an excellent
surface for painting. If not already
sized, treat it with good interior
spar varnish thinned with turpen-
tine to about the consistency of lin
seed oil. If you add to the varnish-
size a small quantity of the paint
to be used as the finish coat, just
enough to color it, the size coat will
often answer the purpose Of a prim-
ing coat. The wallboard can then
be finished with two or three coats
of any wall paint.

BOILER RUST OVERCOME
Use of Gaseous Ammonia Is Found
Success in Germany.

BERLIN, Sept. 4.-Rusting of idle
steam boilers may be overcome by
use of gaseous ammonia, is the
statement of the MerSeburg am
monia works of the large German
dye manufacturing company, I. G..
Farbenindustrie.
Boilers that are to be shut down
are blown dry with air as COM
pletely as possible and then filled
with ammonia gas from a pressure
container. The ammonia reacts
with the remaining water and
moisture in the boiler to form rust
proof surfaces.
These compounds can be removed
from the surface by flushing the

Pictures of Kaiser, Framed
kilograms Stored Here
Since 1920.

Somewhere is a German dreaming
Of a diminished fortune; somewhere
he is basking in the warmth OF
memories of royal favor. He has left
this evidence behind at the Shank
warehouse, but for eleven years
there's been no word Of him.
He has left mystery about him
self Why hasn't he, returned to
claim the collection of mementoes
of the Kaiser's regime? He put
them in storage in 1920 and since
1922, he's made no payment Of the
charges.
He may be "reaping the reward"
of loyalty to the Kaiser, or he may
be following his profession of den
tistry with affuent results. But
there's still the mystery of his mis-
sions for the Kaiser. What is the
significance of the kilograms he
framed and cherished?
$4,000 in Marks
In a kit he left in storage is
"S26,000" in German marks, and
collection Of personal pictures and
kilograms from the family of Kaiser
Wilhelm. The pictures intimately
are posed and inscribed with per-
sonal autographs. proof enough of
the Doctors close relationship.
Many of the dates are during the
crucial war period.
kilograms dated 1915 and orig
mating from the kaiser himself and
his representatives demand his
presence and mo substitutes The
purpose of the frequent meetings
with the kaiser is not revealed. but
it is doubtful that "toothache" de-
manded the attention of the doctor
at such specific times.
For instance, one telegram, trans
lated by Dr.. w. r. Ibler, reads:
"Archduke wants to see you 9:39.
You are to leave Berlin at 6:22. In
case can't come, send no substi-
tutes." The date was Dec. "a, 1918.
Ordered to Villa
Another requested the Doctor to
appear at the Grown Princes villa,
and another dated 1915 conveyed
the news of an appointment by His
Highness, Prince Oscar. Prince Oscar
apparently favored the Doctor, for
he took the time to acknowledge
by wire his New Years greeting.
A little less imperative wire
reads. If you please, leave Berlin
$40. Arrive here 1892. Please answer
if impossible on 18th" Signed by the
KaiSer's adjutant. Many more sim
liar messages were framed and pre-
served.
Undoubtedly his proudest posses
sion was striking pose of Kaiser
Wilhelm. inscribed in his bold hand
writing. In Memory of the Year
Spent in My Wilhelm" Over
the handsome frame rises the gold

Paint Adds to Property Value

Bankers lend anywhere from to
so per cent more money on land
where buildings are well painted
and kept in good repair, according
to an interview conducted among
leading bankers in the Mississippi
valley, including such states as
Iowa, Illinois, Michigan, Ohio, In
diana and Missouri. An average of
the returns from these bankers
showed that the increased loan
value due to painted buildings is
around % per cent.

Posed with Children

Dozens Of pictures of all the mem
berS of the family are framed and
autographed. Crown Princess Ce-
ely is posed with her children.
Prince Friedrich Leopold inscribed
his photograph. The Kaiser is pic
tured with his grandchildren. Prin-
cess Victoria Louise, only daughter
Of the Kaiser, is militant in the
uniform of the Black Hussars.
The pictures were taken within the
palace and on the grounds. Cere-
monial occasionals are reproduced,
and gay happy days are preserved
by informal family pictures.
The last word in privileges was
the right to hunt in the royal pre-
serve. The doctors appreciation of
such an honor is shoNn by his
treaSuring Of the horns of three
young dserS.
Young deerS we're preserved for

Depression Changes Ideas,
Brings About Better
Construction.
BY WYATT BRUNIAuTT

NEW YORK, sept. 4--b- u BE
fore the Depression, it wasn't
architecture unless 1t cost a lot Of
money. But now there are indica-
tons that architecture is discover
ing small houses. beautifully de-
signed. properly built, and costing
less than $1,000
Three major factors are response
BILE. First. under MIRA. industries
and cities are being encouraged 70
provide modern, permanent. low
cost housing for the loW-income
population groups. Architects have
tackled the problem and found it
fascinating
Second. after two or three years
Of more or less graceful starvation,
architects and engineers and build
ers are discovering that II Is just as
worthwhile 70 do a good job on sew
eral small projects as it IS TO do
fancy piece Of work for million
aire.
They Get Results
And. third. the people who can
ting their problems squarely up TO
the construction industry.
Build us decent, safe, livable
small houses, and we'll pay for
them" they say And now they're
getting results.
In the boom days any builder
could scribble a plan" on the back
of an envelope. put 1t up on a Jerry
building" basis-and sell it. But peo-
pie have discovered that houses so
built are extravagant at any price
they go 10 pieces quickly, they burn
easily. they're hot in summer and
cold in winter. and they're generally
fnexcusable.
A small. inexpensive house is a
real problem, requiring horse sense
and trained brains for its solution.
But it can be and is being solved.
Construction Made Simpler
New or improved building mate
rails are being used. Simplifled
construction methods are being de-
veloped. And the new technique
rules out a lot of troubles which
beset the jerry-built small house.
Fire safety. for example. means
construction that is stronger, more
lasting An unburnable place SIM
ply can't deteriorate the way a
burnable one does. One Of the
materials now being used to pro-
duce permanent fire safety is con-
crete maSOnry-a kind of masonry
that is as modern as tomorrow's
newspaper and utterly unlike the
old concrete blocks of ten or fifteen
years ago.
Concrete. incidentally, fits into
the modern. lOw-cost home building
scheme with considerable neatness.
Many small homes are being built
on concrete floors, in lieu of the
old type foundation.
Concrete Partitions Used
Similarly. concrete partition and
roof tile work out perfectly, from the
points of view Of both design and
the budget.
Some of the new low-cost homes
are distinctly modern" in design
extremely simple, but very livable.
Others, in the east particularly, fol-
low traditional styles. One of the
most popular small types is the
Cape Cod cottage.
Few Americans favor standardized
quantity production houses. Fac
fabricated homes may come,
but they will permit Of considerable
individual variation
Rugged individualists" whom
there are many left-will not accept
monotonously flivver-like homes

NEW LAMP GIVES
ROSY-HUED LIGHT
Creenish Color of Mercury
Vapor Lost in Discovery
at Cincinnati u.
NJ the Axxociated preSs

By the Associated Press.
CINCINNATI, July 25.-A new kind
of light a rosy-hued mercury vapor
lamp, was announced today at the Uni
versity of Cincinnati.
In this lamp the sickly. greenish hue
of mercury vapor is completely changed
BY the addition of pinch Of potassium.
the metal which flames in water All
the intensity of mercury vapor light is
retained. says the announcement.
The discovery is claSsed as opening
the way to more efficient illumination.
/, was developed in the department OF
physics by two young scientists, DR.. Isay
Balinkin and DR.. D. A. Wells.
Startles at First.
The first appearance Of the new light
startled them. They were experimenting
with a new, long-life mercury vapor
lamp produced in their laboratory
year ago. One of these lamps has burned
more than 10000 hours.
The physicists added per cent of
potassium to the mercury and switched
on the current to see what would hap
pen. The greenish light of mercury
vapor appeared and then quickly the
glass seemed to get red hot. The cur
rent was hastily shut of.
Then it was discovered that the glass
coated inside with red glow, which en-
veloped the green vapor.
Use Now Is Limited.
'At present" the announcement
states, these new amalgam lamps are
mainly useful for demonstration equip
ment in specstroscopic laboratories. But
this new development may also play an
important part in Illuminating engineer
ing.
1T is the first step toward improving
the present mercury vapor arc lamps
which. although having high efficiency,
are not widely used because of their OBJ
jectionable green light. We may expect
that by a proper combination OF def
mite proportions of different elements,
added to mercury. very efficient lamp
could be developed which ought to dis
place our present inefficient source Of
incandescent illumination"
