SUSSEX WOMEN
MAKE CHEESE
Schools Are Being Held Thru
out County For Purpose
of Making Cheese
WILL USE SURPLUS MILK

During these periods of eco
nomic stress every effort should be
made to save and use everything
that can be produced at home and
on the farm The women of Sus-
sex county are realizing this fact
and under the auspices of the
Home Demonstration work, in
charge of L. B. Rutherford, are
learning ways and means of adding
to the family income. Last week a
meeting was held in Georgetown
for the purpose of showing the
women in attendance how to make
American cheese There were 20
women in attendance representing
IL different communities of Sussex
county. These women were ap-
pointed by their Home Demonstra-
tion clubs to attend the meeting,
and learn the process and they in
turn will give the information back
to their respective communities by
holding extra meetings to which
women of their communities may
go and learn how to make cheese.
The demonstration was given by
Mrs. Kate H. Daugherty, Home
Demonstration Agent of New Cas-
tie County. This will prove to be
of keen interest to all women who
have surplus of milk which
either cannot be sold at any price
or if sold, for so little that it does
not justify the expense and trouble.
Cheese is a fine substitute for meat
in the diet and should be used to
a much greater degree than it is.
1t sells on the market at the pres
ent time from 1920 cents a pound
A gallon of whole sweet milk will
make a pound of cheese and if this
gallon is a surplus that otherwise
would not be used, except by pigs
and chickens, the use of it in
cheese will mean saving of 19
cents to every surplus gallon of
milk. It would seem from these
figures that every woman living on
the farm who has even a few gal
Ions of extra milk should take ad-
vantage of this saving especially
when it may result in a larger con
sumption of so fine a food and per
haps less consumption of meat, es-
pecially pork. Other meeting will
be held in the near future.

u. S. EXPERIMENTS
IN CRIME REFORM
r. ~ Institution to Look to
Prisoners Future.

Lewisburg, Pain the new Urit-
Ell States Northeastern peniten-
tiary, near here, which except for a
fOrbidding 21-foot wall and a few
carefully concealed bars bears more
resemblance to a college than to
the accepted idea Of penal institu-
tiOns, Uncle Sam has just begun
his most ambitious experiment in
reformation of the criminal.
The first prisoners have been
transferred from Atlanta. Ca, and
more will be brought regularly un-
til the prison has its normal ca
pacity of 1900 inmates.
The warden of the new peniten-
tiary is Maj. II. C. Hill, formerly in
charge of the Illinois state prison
at Joliet, a prison executive of long
experience.
Prisoners from Maine. New Hamp-
shire, Vermont. Massachusetts, Con-
necticut, Rhode Island, New York,
New Jersey, Pennsylvania. and pos
sibly Delaware. Maryland. and Ohio
will be housed in the penitentiary.
Emblazoned on the prosceRium
arch in the prison auditorium, which
is large enough to seat all the pris-
oners that the institution will hold
are the words, THAT which is past
and gone is irrevocable: wise men
have enough to do with things pres
ent and to come"
These classic words from Bacon.
according to Sanford G. Bates. di-
rector of the bureau of federal pris-
ons, in Washington. strike the key
note Of the new institution and the
new federal prison program. The
penitentiary will look to the prison
ers' future rather than their past.
The o1d-style steel cell block has
been abandoned at the new prison.
There are only SO disciplinary cells
for the most desperate prisoners
For the most part, prisoners will
| live in single rooms, their quarters
being bettered for good behavior
and a capacity for reform.
The institution was built at re-
markably low cost. Federal prison
| officials estimate that IL was erected
at cost of about $1,000 per man
/ housed, compared with the $4,000 or
5000 per inmate of some of the
other new prisons.

Houses Imported"
by Coast Settlers

Vallejo, Calif.-Twentieth-cen-
tury Californians pattern their
homes after the houses of France,
Spain or Great Britain, but in
the days of California's post
Spanish glory an aristocrat who
wished to build himself an at
tractive new estate frequently
imported the very buildings from
afar.
Thus in 1850 Gen. Mariana
Guadalupe Vallejo imported a
house from New York and an
other from Switzerland. About
a mile from Sonoma they stand
today.
The first was made to order in
Switzerland. Dismantled. it was
loaded piece by piece into a sail
ing vessel. From Europe it made
the many weeks journey to Cal
ifornia around the Horn.
Carried by ox-drawn carts to
the intended site, the pieces were
put together by Indians. Each
piece, numbered, was carefully
laid in its proper place. No nails
or screws were used in the build
ing. 1t was glued and bound to-
gether.
The second house was con-
structed in New York, taken
apart and packed by wagon over
prafries and mountains.

the Storm Country" make their
bow to local audiences Adapted
from the novel by Grace Miller
White and the dramatization by
Rupert Hughes, Tess" is said to
offer plenty of thrilling moments
along with it's vivid romance. The
heroine is the daughter of an old
sea-captain who decides she is get
ting too old to continue cruising
around with him. They according
ly establish themselves in a little
cottage on the Maine soast, from
which they are summarily elected
by a crusty old millionaire who
lays claim to the property. When
Tess rescues a young man from
drowning, and then discovers that
he is the millionaire's son, she goes
berserk- much to his amusement.
The boy wins her reluctant admir-
alton, however when he helps her
after her father has been accused
and convicted on a false murder
charge following the killing of a
game warden.

Monday Tuesday-'"Too Busy
to Work.. The simple virtues and
homely philosophy of real Ameri-
cans are extolled by Will Rogers
in TOO Busy to Work" a touching
drama of every day people, with
VIII Rogers in the title role. The
popular and beloved comedian was
never so keen of wit and so razor
edged in repartee as he is in his
latest Fox picture. Nor has he
ever before demonstrated such ex-
ceptional emotional qualities. The
distinguished exponent of home
spun philosophy portrays the role
of whimsical tramp, whose chief
aim in life is to find his wife and
daughter and the man who stole
them from him. This takes him
from place to place, until he dis
covers that his wife has died and
that his daughter is living under
the roof of his enemy. When he
finds them, he does not resort to
the conventional method of hand
ling the situation. His tolerance
and love dictate an entirely differ
ent course, influenced, no doubt, by
the fact that the girl is enjoying
a romance with the son Of the man
who stole her. Marion Nixon, one
of the most popular leading women
Of the screen, recalled for her
splendid work in Amateur Daddy
and "Rebecca of Sunnybrook
Farm, portrays the role of Rog-
ers' daughter to whom he never
reveals himself. Dick Powell shares
