HEROISM AT SEA.

The North Atlantic has been stirred up by number of recent storms of unusual severity Sever ships have been lost but in most cases the crew have been rescued One tragic case was the Belgia ship, "Usworth" of which about half the crew wi lost. The story of the rescue of the other half, told by Captain Reed, is one of courage an bravery:
 Soaked by rain and sea water and frozen from exposure we kept watching the two ships steaming around The sea was terribly bad. We felt rather discouraged after seeing two unsuccessful attempts made by the As cania to fire a rocket line across to us.
 Shortly afterward the Belgian ship launched lifeboat after terrific struggle with the high seas and squalls that con- tinualy blew up It eventually came under lee. Fourteen of my men leaped into the sea and pulled into the lifeboat. To our horror we saw this boat capsize when it was smashed against the Jean Jadot.
 The twelve of us still remaining nearly gave up hope then. It seemed impossible for small boat to live in the apalling seas. and we knew that unless something was done before sunset we would be lost. The sun was occasionally seen between fierce rain and hail squalls. It was dipping near the horizon when the Ascania, close to windward astern, lower a lfeboat and while the liner pumped oil on the water the small boat struggled to our lee.
 Two men and ships boy leaped into the sea, but at the time the rescue boat was too far away and the waves swept them away and they were drowned. The remain ing nine of us were told to jump and We all held hands and jumped when the life boat, rising the crest of a roller, was as close as was safe, and we were all hauled to safety.
 The men who manned the lifeboat of the Ascan were heroes They had just seen one lifebo ,wamped by the angry waves but notwthstandir ,hey were courageous enough to venture their liv In an effort to save the lives of twelve men thu lid know citizens of another nation They al entitled to praise and commendation-

Two Kinds of Profits.
(Kansas City Star.)

As we understand the various statements by President Roosevelt, he recognizes the importance of the profit motive in every form of legitimate business that serves the general welfare What he IS trying to prevent are the huge windfal specula- tive or promotional profits profits that come from financial juggling for which no adequate public service is performed.
 The President has used the holding company as an example. He has recognized that there are useful and honestly managed holding companies But he has pointed out that in many cases there nave been interruptions managers. slipping inside profits to those in on the ground floor making iiegal contracts for their own advantage and re- ceiylng huge fees from operating companies for so-called services and so-called expert advice"
 Such profits these he is determined shall not continue. The country is with him in this determ- ination.

FARM WORK LEADS
IMPROVEMENTS
Big Increase in Rural Opera
tions Seen as Spring
Comes.

Farm building improvements con-
tinue to held q strong place In the
tahulation of modernization work done
in conjunction with the better hous-
ing program under the national hous-
ing act, with every indication that the
coming Of Spring will see o big in
crease In operations In the rural sec
tions.
Representatives Of the Federal
Housing Administration visiting farm
ing communities report that bankers
are receiving more inquiries from
farmers and that loan commitments
for later use are increasing.
Home Comes First.
Home improvements are receiving
as much attention as barns, outbuild-
ings and other equipment, and in
most instances where farmers have
availed themselves Of the moderniza-
ton credit plan all structures are
given needed attention.
A survey Of the work done on farm
homes shows surprisingly large
number of water systems being in
stalled, also heating plants and elec-
tricity for lighting and household ap-
pliances. Painting and roofing con-
tinue to lead the improvements.
Additions to and requirements OF
barns, stables, granaries and similar
equipment are being governed largely
BY the matter Of business efficiency.
New granaries, for instance. are being
built not only to conserve high-priced
feed, but in many instances to stop
losses by rats and other pests. A more
diversified livestock program, espe-
cially the keeping of few cows and
breeding horses, has in some instances
necessitated more stable room.
Costs Are Low.
A striking feature of the farm
modernization work Is the compare
lively low cost. Credit obtained av-
erages slightly less than $500. And,
since the nature Of their business
often requires them to be somewhat
skilled mechanics, farmers, by doing
the great bulk of their building them
selves, are spending most Of the money
for building materials and equipment.

tents Of the top floor at least once
every two minutes. In other words,
IL the total volume Of the top floor
Qength times width times ceiling
helght) Is 10000 cubic feet, the fan
would have to handle 5000 cubic feet
per minute This amount OF air can
easily be blown out Of the attic space
with fan about 80 inches in diameter.
The fan is usually mounted behind
a grill or louvre Of some sort, either
in an opening IN the building wall or
in q convenient window. A number
of them are mounted on frames max
ing them easily portable so that they
can be placed in rooms where large
numbers of people are gathered, or
other locations where maximum COM
fort is desired.
With the fan installed in the attic
1t is possible to control 1t with an
automatic switch which will turn it on
at any predetermined time, or 1t may
be connected to a manually operated
switch located anywhere downstairs
In the early evening when the sun
has just gone down the fan is turned
on. the second-fioor windows are
closed. the flrst-floor windows are
opened. and the cool air Is drawn
through the entire house. In short
time the heat has been removed and
the occupants are not only cooled by
the fresh outside air. but also by the
gentle circulation Of air over the skin
When only the bed rooms are occu-
pied 1t Is possible to close the first
floor windows, open those on the sec
ond floor, and the entire volume Of air
Is circulated where it Is most needed
1t Is therefore possible to obtain almost
perfect control of the installation by
merely manipulating the windows a:
desired.
The cost Of these fans Is 50 reason
able that they are no doubt one OF
the most effective methods of obtain
ing comfort cheaply. Even residents
Of apartments, small detached or semi
detached houses Of only moderate
means can avail themselves Of thi,
simplest Of conditioning systems.
Next week the use Of cold water
and ice will be considered as a mean;
Of actually cooling the air cheaply.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, March 23.-Many
new ideas for making homes more
comfortable, up to date and attrac.
tive will be demonstrated at the
Modernization Exposition, which
opens Monday, March IS. In the large
hall Of the Port Authority Commerce
Building, Fifteenth street and Eighth
avenue, New York.
Sponsored by the New York City
Better Housing Committee Of the
Federal Housing Administration, 1t
includes displays Of innumerable ma
terials and equipment, such as paints,
woodwork. plumbing, heating, elec-
trical fixtures and decorative furnish
ings.
Property owners will derive from
the exposition many suggestions as to
how to make their houses more at
tractive to themselves and to tenants.
Builders Of new homes should dis
cover valuable aids in the exhibits,
which range from an extensive group
Of architectural plans to arrange
ments Of furnishings and equipment
to 60 inside the house.
Adaptations Featured.
New color schemes and suggestions
on how to adapt them to ones own
home will be an interesting part Of
the exposition. A series of miniature
houses, ranging from the usual types
to the ultramodern home of tomor-
row" will be shown, with painted
interiors and exteriors in a wide range
of effects. In the model Of the
home Of tomorrow" remarkable for

size prototype now being built in
Yonkers, N Y, the visitor may see
how to transform a dingy basement
into a useful game room by brighten
ing its walls with paint; also how
modern color schemes can re-create
other rooms.
OF more than ordinary interest Is
an architectural exhibit Of remodeled
buildings displayed in photographs
and floor plans. Here will be found
hints for remodeling suburban homes.
renOvating old farm houses, making
an attractive entrance out Of an old
fashioned hallway, and obtaining
more room inside home. Beforehand.
after photographs serve to illustrate
the changes.
Tenement Rooms Furnished.
Dramatic in its implications Is the
life-sized display of two actual tene-
ment rooms with all their furnishings,
taken from an abandoned East Side
home. The New York Housing Au-
thority re-created these as q realistic
picture of the old-type homes which
are now being replaced for better ones
by means Of slum clearance and bet
ter housing projects.
Decorated interiors, with attractive
arrangements of furniture, rugs and
fabrics, will emphasize color. Painted
panels will suggest different wall
treatments and demonstrations Of
how to put on various finishes will
be conducted by leading concerns.
Visitors will see displayed the newest
finishes and latest developments IN
paints and varnishes for interior dec.
Grafton and exterior protection.

AirConditioning
Fans in Attic Used to Blow
Out Hot Air at End
Of Day.
RY LAWRENCE TUCKER.

How to obtain air-conditioned COM
fort in the home inexpensively is q
question that has recently been
aroused in the minds Of many people.
The desire for information no doubt
has been caused by the widespread use
of air conditioning in 50 many stores,
restaurants and theaters. After spend
ing a perfectly comfortable evening in
a cool theater, or enjoying a good
dinner in the manufactured climate OF
restaurant, the majority of people
wish fervently that they could return
to a pleasantly cool house or apart
ment.
At present there are number Of
methods OF installing air-conditioning
equipment In the home. but the high
initial cost and the expense of oper-
alton place it far beyond the reach
of the average person. The equipment
required to cool only q fair-sized room
will cost $400 at the least, and even
though portable machine is used the
cost Of the device itself will, in most
cases, be prohibitive.
When actual cooling Is desired,
using mechanical refrigeratiye ma
chinery, this condition exists, but by
the use Of ice, cold water or the rapid
movement of air, 1t Is possible to OBJ
tain a high degree Of comfort with
very little outlay.
Catching the Cool Air.
AL, Of us have no doubt noticed the
very decided drop in temperature that
occurs when the sun goes down after
a piping hot day. This difference In
temperature will amount to as much
as 20 degrees. but the inside Of the
house which has been heated up by
the sun beating down on the roof
with a temperature Of 1870 degrees or
more, is still hot. In fact, it is very
apt to be S or 10 degrees hotter than
the air outside in the middle OF the
day.
Obviously the simplest method Of
cooling the interior Of the house down
to the comparatively pleasant outdoor
condition at night Is to put the hot air
out OF the house and pull in the cool
night air. This method will not, OF
course, remove any OF the moisture
from the air. nor will It produce q
condition any better than exists out
OF doors. It will. however. remove the
heat that has been stored up all day
and enable Us to enjoy some relief
without having to drive around in
cars all night or sleep on park
benches.
To remove this heated air and pull
in the cool air, a large, quiet fan is
installed in the attic. 1t must be
large enough to change the air con-
