M0UTH-0RGAN TRADE
IN GERMANY BOOMS
Accordeons, Too, Enjoy Increas-
ing Export Busir ess, Soar
ing 80 Per Cent.

BERLIN CP-No trade barriers
or currency troubles seem to harm
the humble German mouth organ,
which apparently is more popular
than ever all over the world.
More than 100000 mouth organs
were exported in this years first
quarter, an increase of so per cent
over last year. Canada, Argentina
and British South Africa were the
chief buyers.
Accordeons were in even greater
demand, the increase in exports for
the same quarter being 80 per cent.
They went chiefly to the United States
and Great Britain.

Lawn Fertilizing.

As A rule, early Spring Is conceded
- the most desirable season for ap-
plying the major portion of the lawn
fertilizer. Yet if a lawn shows lack
of vigor at any time during the grow
ing season it is advisable to supply
plant food. H. L. Westover and c. r.
Enlow, in Farmers Bulletin No. 1877,
Planting and Care of Lawns" sug-
gest as a midseason treatment the
use Of 3 pounds per 1000 square feet
of either nitrate Of soda or of sulphate
Of ammonia. Both should not be used
at once. as these are concentrated ma
terials and in large quantity would in
jure rather than benefit the lawn.
When applied. the fertilizer should
be mixed with 10 pounds of cotton
seed meal or of dry soil to insure bet
ter distribution without burning the
grass. After distribution the lawn
should be we'll 'sprinkled to wash the
fertilizer of the foliage. The disad-
vantage of stable manure on lawns is
that 1t often contains plenty of weed
seed. Since crab grass and weeds are
bugbears of the home owner, 1t is de-
sirable to avoid their introduction
knowingly.

Hollywood Didn't Invent Sex
Says Cecil DeMiIIe

HOLLYWOOD, Oct. 27.-With
the storm of censorship problems
converging upon Hollywood, and
accusations flying thick and fast,
Cecil B. DeMille pleads for tol-
erance and a greater understand
ing of motion picture problems.
He contends that it is inn
possible to eliminate sex en-
tirely from pictures until it is
first eliminated from life. No
urge so cosmic as sex, he feels,
can be avoided in drama with
out removing its most vital spark.
Il see sex as a healthy force.
Like most other things it can
be over-emphasized and cheap
ened," DeMille says. 1T has
been customary to blame Holly
wood for some of the ills that
result from this force, but after
all Hollywood didn't invent sex.
"As 1 remember, it started in
the Garden of Eden when Je-

hOvah provided the apple that
was to tempt Eve into commit
ting the first sin credited to sex.
There have been millions of ex-
ampleS since. And immOdeSty
started, 1 am sure, when they
first put clothes on her body,
That was a long time agO-lOng
before pictures were ever
thought Of"
Hollywood did not create
these basic emotions. 1t only
utilizes them because there could
be no drama of life without
them. If going to Sunday
school was the greatest, most
vital custom in the world, be
sure our pictures would be filled
with it.
Because I deteSt vulgarity,
even in it's mildeSt forms, have
kept my own pictures in good
taste. Neither have / ever ex-
plotted sex just for the pleasure
of putting it on the SCREEN"

A couple of interesting things
about the new Powell house, now

he sometime may want to sell the

Steamroom. The space was
cramped, so the tub turned out
to be practically square.

trate them by citing one or
two particular instances.
1t seems to me that an
actor can only hope to
realize the character he is
called upon to portray by
living that character until
he knows it intimately.
The character, as the
script of a play or a pic
ture delineates it, is, so to
speak, the beginning and
the end of the actors work.
The actor starts from that
as a builder does with blue
prints and specifications
Finally, he embodies those

FOODS FAVORABLE TO BEAUTY -------- SATISFYING LUNCHEON
 SALADS AND SANDWICHES
By KATHLEEN MARY QUINLAN

day are often more pleasing than the toasted sandwich with cold filling. A favorite of mine is hot vegetable sandwich made with but tered toast slices filled with hct minced vegetables in a heavy cream sauce. Around the toast goes more cream sauce, sprinkled with finely minced parsley.
 Hot fried tomatoes tucked be- tween slices of hot buttered graz ham toast are more delicious by far than broiled tomatoes served separately with bread or toast. Pour over them the savory brown. ed butter that is left in the pan. |. or make q combination hot sand- wich using broiied tomatoes and sauted mushrooms, with little of the mushroom juice added. This is. an excellent combination.
 If you have had a very light breakfast, for luncheon try hot sandwich consisting of butered toast filled with creamy scrambled c ggs and country sausage cfuni. bled and cooked with eggs; or scrambled with minced rnush- rooms. This dish, proceeded by a tomato juice cocktail and fol- lowed perhaps by a light fruit des. sert or apple sauce will make the second half of busy day pass without fatigue or lack of energy, and keep the body up to that mark of efficiency which is a first re. quirement in tn ebeauty program.

YOUR
 TABLE 
See-Sawing With , the Knife

A nice handling of the knife and fork is one of the outstand- ing requirements at the table where good manners" preside. And under that head come such points as cutting meats with firm even strokes of the knife In contrast with the nervous, $ee-sawing motion used by many people.
 Even meat that is not over- tender will yield to the knife that cuts into 1t with determine ton from the first stroke, while invariably it will elude the see saving attack of 9 knife that is not held firmly and drawn over it with enough pressure to reach the mark.
 Efficient cutting may mean placing the knife at the farthest edge of the piece of meat and, with pressure, drawing it aross tue meat toward the person; then lifting the knife slightly and repeating once or twice. Even so, the result will be quicker than if a jerky, saving motion were used, and there will be no sliding of the meat around the plate.
 Broiled chicken presents dlf- faculties to many persons. It is more easily handled when the knife cuts firmly into the meat first one way, then across, and then is slipped underneath the meat to dislodge ;t from the little bones.

~O~~~~~-e~-@~~ cream soups assume an entirely different character from that which they bear when served plain. And aside from garnishes that go into the soup, much can be done, as I have said before, in the way of adding interest through the use of odd breads and crackers served with soup.
 Meat Balls
 For strong, well-seasoned broth prepare little meat balls in this manner: Chop any cooked meht very fine, season highly with salt, drops of onion juice, lemon juice and other herbs, if desired. Add enough beaten egg yolk to moisten and make of molding consistency. Form into little balls not more thau a half inch in diameter, roll the balls in flour and poach them in boiling water .. or fry them to a delicate light brown in hot butter.

Foods for Fall

sof course you're not going to serve the same foods this fall as you have been serving all summer. The change in tempera- ture naturally calls for change in diet. But what different foods have you particularly in mind? Let's see (Business of chewing re- flectively on a pencil.) We were stumped last year b ythis ques- tion, so we made out list of canned foods that will supply the qualities that you need at this time of the year. Here it is:
 Kidney beans, beets, okra with tomatoes, sauerkraut, apple butter, $ wine fruit salad, oysters, codfish, tuna, salmon, frankfurters, veal roast, mutton broth, apricots and pears. How's that for a starter? You can go on from there your self. And here are q couple of iIl- expensive recipes which include some of these foods.
 Beets With Vinegar Dressi''g
 Heat the contents of . No. 2 can of sliced beets, drain anu korp hot. Mix four tablespoons sugar with one teaspoon cornstarch, and add with one tablespoon butter, three tablespoons vinegar and a few grains of salt to the beet liquor. Cook till creamy, and pour over the hot beets. Costs four very liberally.
 Babck Spareribs With Sauerkraut Wash and drain one and half pounds spareribs, dust with salt and pepper, and place in a baking er1u .rn over, and bake in a moderate - $50 degree oven for about one hour, basting occasionally. Heat the contents of a No. can sauer.- kraut, and pile in center of a hot platter. Arrange the spareribs a. round the kraut. This costs less than forty-five cents and serves

 2 egg w-.hites, stiffly beaten

Place in bowl of cracked ice or ice water and whip with TO- tary egg beater until fluffy and thick like whipped cream. Fold in cocoanut and egg whites. Turn into shallow pan, 8xS inches.

The Waterbury Democrat., 1934-11-16

orite form of 1t Is simply to have the quarters of hard-goiled egg arranged neatly in crisp let- tuce cups, sprinkled with a few capers, perhalN, and topped with creamy mayonnaise. For a change my cook som etimes rices the yolk of egg and mixes 1t with dressing and little chopped pickle, pi- miento, chives or chopped olive, then fills the whites again and places them in the nest of lettuce. Again she slices the egg uniformly and serves it with fresh cress and dressing; or arranges the slices on finely shredded lettuce and gar- nishes with rings of sliced stuffed olive.
 Thin strips of buttered whole wheat toast are usually served with the salad; or hot graham muf- fins, corn gems or cheese biscuits, when there is time for hot bread to be made.
 Another luncheon salad which is a fair meal Is made with flaked tuna fish heaped lightly lin the center of lettuce and surrounded by a ring of cold cooked peas. Over this goes a spoonful of lemon may onnaise, and finger rolls are served with the salad. In cold weather the salad luncheon seems to proceed best when commenced with a cup of hot broth or boul1ion. This would be the choice for either of the two salads I have mentioned. Cream soups are more logical and apetiz- ing as a forerunner of sandwich menu, or a salad of mixed greens with French dressing.
 Hot sandwich filings for the cold

Drop into the hot soup, sprinkle over with finely minced parsley and serve them at once.
 Noodle Puffs
 Those tiny litle puff balls you see in the soups made by French chefs are made by rolling noodle dough as thin as paper, folding 1t double and cutting 1t into circles not more than a quarter of an inch in dia- meter. For this the French cook uses very small vegetable cutter. If you do not have one around the house, a pastry bag tube will do.. :. or as a last result, perhaps the metal rim of a pencil with the rubber tip removed.
