pierced with a fork, but not so tender
that they become shapeless. Serve hot
or cold in the same dish. Or, If pre-

glass sauce dishes and pour over each
apple some of the amber liquid.
Apples baked in maple sirup have
peculiarly delicate quality. There is no
decided taste of the maple sirup. but
the blending of the apple juice and
sweet sap supplies an unusually de-
licious and different flavor. The but

How it Started
The Word "Volume."

The first volume" was q roll. Hence
its name.
In ancient times, the papyrus on
which records were kept and writing

which it was held. AS the paper was
written on, it was unrolled from one
rod onto another, somewhat in the
manner Of q roll of film used In

The Latin word for such writing
was "volumen," from 'volvere," to roll

Debate Is Spirited.

The movement inaugurated by sew
eral member groups of the Federation
OF Citizens Associations to ban the
sale of liquor from their communities
gained further impetus last night with
adoption by the Conduit Road Citizens
Association of resolution urging the
outlawing of liquor establishments
within its boundaries.
Similar action was taken nearly two
weeks ago by the Mount Pleasant Citi-
Gems Association. Later the Piney
Branch group favored restricting liquor
sales to the downtown section. while
the American University Park and
Stanton Park associations adopted res
olutionS opposing the return of legaliZed
sales in anything resembling bar rooms.
More than 100 persons attended the
Conduit Road associations meeting at
the Church of Our Lady of Victory as
evidence of the widespread interest in
solving the liquor problem. The asso-

Greater representation for labor on
code authorities, labor policy boards and
industrial relations boards was de-
manded by William Green, president
Of the American Federation of Labor,

followed considerable speculation at the
omission of John L. Lewis, president Of
the United Mine Workers of America,
from the bituminous coal industrial
board, proposed members of which
were sent by Hugh S. johnson to Presi-
dent Roosevelt for appointment.
AT the present moment" Green said,
labor is resentful over the fact that
it has to fight for even the minimum
representation upon boards and ad-
ministrative organizations created for
the purpose of administering industrial
codes of fair practice.

for the "old folks" why don't
you invite the hard-worked
family in the old home to some
place where they can rest with
out demands on their purse and
failing strength.
In the past you have been
selfish.
You consider your own COM
fort and finances in planning
vacation.

are glad to see you and have
you at home.
They are willing to work
harder and make greater out
lays for you.
But don't let it be a one

Perhaps you might have a
better time if you and some

gether at some resort, dividing
expenses.
But it would be a fine thing
to include the old folks in your
plans and find out their pref
erences as to where you might
all spend a few days or weeks.
Mother and Dad might not
be able to get away at the
same time.
Then allot a certain time

STAY SIMPLE.

your own equipment. And be-
fore you can do anything with
yourself-or to your world
you must t AXE inventory OF
that equipment.
You are what you are. What

anything anyone else could

You weren't-and you can't.
You have certain definite
limitationS-and definite ca
pacities. What are they?
Most of your failures have
come because you didn't know
what you were or what you
could do. Find out now. And
don't try to do anything more
until you have found out.
STAND STEADY.
Find out what you are-and
then stick to it. That will be

Maybe if you had another kind

So you're yanked from one
position to another. And end
