IT'S TRUE

A steam-engine was constructed by
Her of Alexandria (Egypt) a century
before Christ, and II centuries before
Watt.
The Monroe Doctrine" was really
the Adams Doctrine. George H.
Barnes, Philadelphia, who is one of
the most interesting of our many help
full correspondents, contributes: "The
Doctrine was the product of the brain
of John Quincy Adams, the secre-
tary of state. The United States had
emerged victorious over the most DOW
erful of the European governments,
in the war of 1912, and was both re-
spected and feared by the other gov
ernments Secretary Adams sensed
the difficulties that might arise, if the
Holy Alliance gave to Spain the aid
| 1t desired and he determined to fore
stall such action. It is doubtful if
Monroe could have formulated the
Doctrine as he was, apparently, the
mental equal of Fillmore, Pierce and
Harding"
Well take issue with Mr. Barnes
that the United States emerged vic
torious from the war of 1912. See
this column for Dec. "a.
Thomas Paine held high offices in
the United States and French gov
ernments without being a citizen of
either country.

rOnAY,S YESTERDAYS

Dec. 81, 1620-Five days after the
16O-ton Mayflower dropped anchor at
the bleak spot that John Smith had
named Plymouth - years before, some
of the Pilgrims landed. Four months
were to pass before all left the May
flower, and even then some hung back
until the master of the ship, Christie
pher Jones, insisted they unload and
give him leave. s
The captain was not Pilgrim nor
devout. AT first sight of land, in Nov
ember, the Pilgrims had knelt down
and offered up thanks. But the cap
tain of the first ship to cross the
wide Atlantic alone, had the idea:
yes God is above-but 1 sail the
ship"
You're wrong if you believe the
Pilgrims landed first at Plymouth.
Members of the Mayflower's company
first went ashore on Cape Cod, near
the present Provincetown, on Nov. 10.
They called this land Virginia, which
they thought it was part of. New
England was then the Pacific Coast !:
Sir Francis Drake had named the lat
ter that 40 years before
<AIu the IllSIILl dln0TS you We
heard so much about, were mostly I'M
der 80 and not fathers. Thomas Wes-
ton, English ironmonger, to whom
they bound themselves irf peonage for
the first seven years they were in the
New World in return for their trans
rortation and land, had made sure
they were all young enough to work
hard.
Millions of both whites and negroes
can brag of Mayflower ancestry, if
they wish. On its second trip to the
New World the ship brought a load
of slaves. A Mayflower passenger
could be expected to have 100000 des-
cendants today.

"a mans house is his CASTLE" applies
admirably to the Hollywood situation.
Outside that castle, the screen actor
Is, to a considerable degree, public
property. Which is logical enough,
in view of the fact that he is sup
ported by the theater- going public.
Flattering as it is, however, to be
recognized, pointed out and asked
for autographs, there are times when
the spotlight is extremely fraying to
the nerves. At such times, home Is
doubly sweet to the actor, who, after
all, Is just a human being who happens
to be doing work which attracts public
attention.
My particular castle is perched on
the top of hill high enough to be
called a mountain in most parts of
the world. It's just seven minutes
driving time from the R-K-O-radio
studies, when the traffic signals are

of many nations to hear two of Yugo-
slavia's renowned artists, Nine Vio-

Nine. de Strozzi combines a charm
ing personality with a powerful, ring

uses with artistic effect. Her diction
is unusually fine and added greatly to
her very notable rendition of the

of the PugnanisKreisler "Praeludium

in the Kreisler arrangement, gave
much pleasure to the listeners. Arts

worker part time studying casein. A
coarse, tough casein has been success
fully prepared in the bureau labora-

deal of work Is necessary before fine
fibers with all the properties necessary

Rayon Process Copied.
In manufacturing the synthetic wool,
according to report Of the trade
commission at Rome, the casein is
extracted from milk SKINNED by the
usual methods. 1t is subjected to
bath of chemicals in which it Is soluble
and the resulting viscous solution
forced through spinning nozzles as in
the manufacture of rayons.
Except for chemical treatments, for
which special apparatus is required,
the report stated that the new SYM

equipment used in the production of

Mr.. Smith hailed the information
as the answer to the dairyman's

for low-grade milk. He thinks it will
stimulate the knitting industries, but
doesn't care to discuss its possible
effect on the cotton-producing and
cotton-m milling industries. This coun-

domestic wool producers" he said.
