.FIRELESS ENGINE
 SEEMS PRACTICAL
Small Locomotive Suc- cessfulIy Passes Its
 Initial Test

Pittsburg-(UP)-The dream of a lifetime-a fireless steam engine came true here recently when small, trim locomotive, designed and built by w. J. Kremer, suc- cessfully and quietly passed it's first test.
 Thirty years ago, Kremer, a youthful engineer in Germany con- ceived the idea of an engine with out a fire box; one that would use steam to make steam and move pistons with less noise, more effi- ciency and less fuel.
 AS engineer of the H. K. Porter Co.,, Kremer was able at last to work out his theories, which he felt sure were practical and could succeed.
 He threw out the fire box: in- stalled a tank containing water in place of boiler; built a steam boiler on a siding; installed piston valves and gears; and his engine was complete.
 The engine, used only to switch cars and haul loads around the railroad yards, must "resteam' every 12 hours. It must pull up to the siding boiler and fill up with steam and water. Thus its radius is localized.
 But its smooth operation econ omy and power treble its value, Kremer said. The engine, capable of 12 miles per hour, was to be shipped immediately to Brooklyn for use in the navy yard.

LUNCH HOUR USE
 AFFECTS HEALTH
Rush Shopping Tour s, Quick Bites Are Bad;
 Right Foods Needed

Opportunity for the three "R's" relaxation, refreshment and re- lief from regular duties-shouid be the aim of the business girl during the noon hour period. and care should be taken in the selec- tion of the proper foods at lunch, it was stated in the state depart ment of health's weekly broadcast today by Elizabeth c. Nickerson. director of the departments bu- reau of public health instruction.
 Referring to the limited time available, Miss Nickerson said that many girls risk good health and efficiency at afternoon work by thinking of the noon hour in terms of shopping tours with only hasty bite at a soda fountain before making the final sprint in the waning minutes left for eaching the office.
 Those girls are fortunate, she said, who work near enough to a park where they can eat in the open and enjoy the sunshine, or skyshine in a shady place, and where stray breezes are available. They will feel refreshed for after IlOOu uultcS dIlu UCoOAS bO 5AfS bOS- ter service.
 Foods difficult to digest should not be taken at noontime, Miss Nickerson warned. Selection of lunch, however, depends partly upon the rest of the food avail able during the day and upon the money available. If a hearty din- ner of well balanced fod is avail able at night, then the noon meal may be lighter, with selections made from the soup, salad or fruit list and a glass of milk on the side. Where a business girl pre- pares her own meals, it may be advisable and economical to select we'll balanced dinner at noon consisting of main dish of meat, fish, eggs or cheese, a green vege- table or salad and simple dessert of custard or fruit, and then pre- pare light supper at home.
 : If the business girl "carries" her lunch, she may fall into too starchy a habit - sandwiches, crackers, cakes, candy. It is possible, how ever, to carry tasty salads in lit- tie covered jars and fruit is more beneficial than too much sweet. Ice cold sodas should not become a luncheon habit as the soda is apt to interfere with digestion. A glass of milk is more healthful.
 Where extreme economy is nec- essary, the business girl would do we'll to eat a more nourishing breakfast at home where fruit and other essentials can be served more reasonably than at a restaurant, the director advised. On the other hand, dessert might be purchased at restaurant more economically than it could be made at home. Restaurants, Miss Nickerson said, are catering more and more to the food requirements of bus- mess girls by offering refreshing fruit juices, salads and nicely cooked green vegetables. Lunch- con suggestions to guide the diner to a well balanced menu are also being posted.

FARMER PHILOSOPHER

agricultural circles.
 FARMER PHILOSOPHERS
 Kansas City, Mo, Aug s.-(UPJ -"w-a-ll," drawled the gentleman on the fence, you've got to take such things philosophically.
 The fence was part of the miles of fences of Kansas City's stock yards and the gentleman was q Kansas farmer watching his herd of cattle being sold at ruinous prices. He had to sell because 1T he didn't the drought would have killed the cattle in the field. Their feed and water had been dried up.
 Farming never was a bed or roses" he added.
 He was gray-haired. His face was tanned; his hands rough and like steel from years of back breaking work. Years ago he grad uated from an agricultural college and went into farming as a career, following the footsteps of forebear- CTS who could make a farm pay without any college education.
 Take that animal there," he said, pointing to steer so emaci- ated it's skin crackled like rotting silk as it walked, that was 1 handsome animal before the drought settled down in the spring. 'Some years you have drought and heat, like this year. and crops burn: other years we get rain when we need it. and the sun acts as 8 ripener and not a killer, and you make a good crop. But good weather or bad. you're always | fighting the elements and gambling for the break.
 This drought is a right bad one. I don't see how 1t could be worse, but we've had bad ones be-, fore. and somehow we got into the fields again, and got the seed in and started over again. Kansas is fine state. It always comes back.
 q don't remember any drought worse than this. but I recall times that were worse. I came to Kan- sas when I was boy with my father. and so did lot of others who are here selling their cattle for what they can get and wonder ing where the money will come from to carry over the winter.
 "But there have been droughts when there wasn't enough to eat. and when people thought maybe they'd starve. It might be just the same now only we have agencies to help. We can get water in now by train and motor tank cars. Years ago, we hauled it in tanks behind drought-whipped horses, when we could get 1t. And we didn't have these agencies we have now Those in need depended on individual charity. Those who had little shared with those who didn't. Nothing like this can whip
