LIFE, PROPERTIES CLOSELY GUARDED
Underwriters LabOratO- ries Play Important Part
 in Keeping Standards

There is an organization, estab- lished and operated for service and not profit, which constantly guards your life and your property though you may never have heard its name.
 That organization is the Under writer's Laboratories, which is maintained by the National Board of Fire Underwriters. It was start ed 35 years ago for the specific pur- pose of testing electrical apparatus, building materials and other prod ucts in the light of their fire haz- ard or f1re-resistive qualities.
 Await Approval
 So successful has the laboratories work been, that manufacturers of heating appliances, irons, lamps, and 50 on, almost always design their products to comply with the high standards demanded by the laboratories, before marketing them. Good electrical and other retail shops will not stock appliances lacking the laboratories seal of ap- proval-nor will the wise purchaser buy them.
 The routine through which g product goes in seeking approval is simple and effective. First, the product must be voluntarily sub- mitted to the laboratories. It is then exhaustively examined and tested by engineers and given g rating. If 1t satisfactorily passes all tests it is listed in the List of Inspected Appliances issued peri- odically by the labpratories. And this does not end the work-inspec- tors for the laboratories located in ITS major industrial centers peri- odically inspect the production of listed devices at the rnanufacturer'a plant, to see that the necessary standard of design and safety is maintained.
 Follows Routine
 Whether the material in question be light cord or 3 new type ot building material the UnderwTit- ers' Laboratories systematically pursues this routine. And the rec suit is that approved devices and materials used in homes and fac tories today are built to very high standard of safety so far as the risk of fire is concerned.

SUNDAY DINNER
Suggestions
By ANN PAGE

TINE recent cold snap reminds us
i that hearty foods are again in
order. It is good news therefore that
pork is plentiful and costs less than in
many months. Lamb and veal are also
reasonable in price. Beef prices have
begun to reflect the drought as there
is a scarcity of well-fnished beef.
Chickens, particularly the frying and
roasting sizes are reasonable. Butter
is again higher but egg prices are
fairly steady.
Many vegetables are now coming
from the south and west though the
hardy cabbage family, celery and the
root vegetables are still northern
grown.
The citrus fruits and apples have
taken their winter stand at the top of
the housewives marketing list.
Here are three menus planned for
different budget levels.
Low Cost Dinner
Veal Pot Pie
Potatoes Onions Carrots
Bread and Butter
Orange Tapioca Cream
Tea or Coffee Milk
Medium Cost Dinner
Roast Lamb Drowned Potatoes
Green Beans
Bread and Butter
Sliced Oranges and Coconut Waters
Tea or Coffee Milk
Very Special Dinner
Cream of Mushroom Soup
Veal Outlet Mashed Vans
Dreamed Celery and Onions
Grapefruit Salad

OVERSEE REALTY
EXCHANGE OPENED
In HOTEL ROOMS
TO BE OPERATED BY LEO
F. HUGHES; HAS LIST OF
PROSPECTIVE BUYERS OF
PROPERTY

Oversee Realty Exchange with
offices in the Oversee Hotel has
started operation in the real es-
tate field in this city.
With the idea of getting in on
the ground floor" in the realty
business they expect to develop in
Key West in the near future, this
company already has a list of
prospects interested in the pur-
chase of Key West realty.
Leo F. Hughes, operator of the
Oversee Hotei, VIII operate the
realty exchange. lie has passed
the examination for a State Realty
Brokers license.
Prior to and during the Florida
''boom," Mr.. Hughes had Realty
offices in Miami and did consider
able developing of land into sub
divisions. He also organized and
managed syndicates that in one
year bought anG sold about Is
million dollars worth of land:
Mr.. Hughes was PROBABLY more
successful than any other broker
in Florida, doing a similar bust
ness, because in tie face of the
bursting of the boom, he was able
to get all his clients out without
a loss excepting a few in one un-
sold parcel of land, it is stated.
He believes that realty in Key
West offers the best buy in the
state for home buyers and specu-
lators because of its fair prices
and best climate. He also states
that the people who laid out Key
West, with its wonderful drive
way along the gulf and ocean,
were unselfish and had fine vision
because the wonderful water
view will always be open to the
public for scenic view and drives.
'To see the wisdom of laying
out the city and preserving for
its citizens and visitors the wa.
ter frontage, one has but to drive
around Miami Beach. where one
cannot now see the ocean, except
ing at the short stretch of Lum-
mus Park and cannot see the Bay
as the ocean front and bay front
are fast becoming built upon so
that all the public can see in a
drive around IS the rear entrances
of large homes hotels and apart
ment houses" Mr.. Hughes states.

COLLEGE NOTES
By CYNTHIA PEARLMAN
Especial Tallahassee Correspond
emit of The Citizen)
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

TALLAHASSEE, Nov. e.
Students and faculty alike are
looking forward with great eager
ness 70 the many events planned
for this year at Florida State Col
lege for Women. fs
Our first event Of this month
will be the Fealty ceremony which
is to take place tomOrrOAE- To
mark the elimination of their pc
Rod of adjustment to college life
the freshmen present each year
the ceremony of Fealty, in which
they finally accept the obligations
and responsibilities of college eIti-
zenship and pledge their allegiance
to the ideals of F.S.C.W. This
ceremony is a very colorful one
Those freshmen who are planning
to attend the event are: Misses
! Fave Adams, Eloise Quito, Cleo
Kemp Anne Kennedy, Alice Park,
Cynthia Pearlnnan and Edna Rob
erts.
Next is Armistice Day on the
eleventh. THIS holiday viii be
doubly welcomed since 1t marks
the termination Of quarterly
exams. which students are now IN
dergoing. On the thirteenth OF
the month we snail have reached
the end of the first quarter which
means that the first lap Of the
years work at Tally will have been
completed. 1t also means to the
many local freshmen that il is only
a matter of a month before they
will be back in their hometown
again.
One of the highlights of the
month will be Thanksgiving. On
this day many students have their
parents come to visit them. The
Thanksgiving season is one OF
great rejoicing and festivity on
tbs campus. On the twenty-fOurth
and twenty-fifth, the days imme-
diately preceding Thanksgiving
Day, we shall have our annual Odd
and Even demonstrations. The
PEAK of traditional events on the
campus is reached at this time.
With the Odd-Even rivalry at 8
fever pitch the college takes part
in events unequalled for tradition
at any other time of the year! The
Odds march in the solemn and
beautiful lantern parade and the
Evens burn the Odds in effigy al
a roaring bonfire and raise the
Even bones with a ghostly chant
ing march over the campus The
high spot of the entertainment
comes during Odd and Even dem
onstrations in which Odds and
Evens compete with entertain
ments, written, directed and act
ed out by students. On Thanks
lgiving morning the rivalry of the
t0dds and Evens is settled in the
annual volleybGll and basketball
games, and later in the day the
college dining room is the scene
of the annual "March of the Tur-
keys"
| On December the election Of
Freshman class officers will be
held. The Senior Christmas par
lty will be given on December Is.
Then, finally, comes that much
