HOBBY RIDING
WITH
MAX CHAMBERS
BOAT MAKING

Up and down the shores of the
Chesapeake Bay hundreds Of Bay
sailors are patching, painting and
building boats. Even thinking of
beats takes us lands away to adven-
ture in all chimes. And talking
about adventure, Richard Halibur-
ton, probably Americas most out
standing adventurer, will visit the
State Teachers College at Salisbury
Oh April 22. He will speak that
night on his journeys and will no
doubt mention the rs. S. Halibur-
ton" as he called himself when he
sailed through the Panama Canal
under his own power from ocean to
ocean. Don't miss this If you like
adventure
No place in the East offers more
interesting location for adventure in
boat building and boat sailing than
this country of ours. There are
more different types of boats on the
Chesapeake Bay and it's tributaries
than any other body of water in the
world, for boating has become
major pastime in the Chesapeake Bay
country, INDUCED in by people who
buy boats, build boats and models
and enjoy the events that only the
Chesapeake Bay offers. Regattas,
cruising, and fishing offer to our
residents and visitors opportunities
for unlimited adventure.
Boat building has changed a lot
since Noah built the Ark which lack
ed the style, grace, and sailing
qualities of the Chesapeake Bay log
canoe. Captain ]. B. Harrison is
master builder" of these fast boats
which often live a hundred years.
Caulk Kemp's Island Bird" hailing
from St. Michaels, is the fastest log
canoe on the Bay. VIM. Mason She
han, Jr.'s "Star Dust is champion
Star boat. There are hundreds of
others which you can see when the
regatta season opens. This year you
will no doubt see some cellophane
sails on some of the star boats and
"scrappy cats"
Carl M. j. VonZielinski, owner of
Johnson's Island, has built a COM
plete model fourteen feet square rig
ger which he sails on the Bay. She
is rugged as a brig and has seventeen
sails. Rev. John White, an Episco-
pal minister, is making a complete
set of models of all Chesapeake Bay
craft This will be real museum
exhibit when completed. A former
resident of st. Michaels, Captain
Robert Landon, spends his spare
time making models at the Old Mems
Home in Baltimore. All over the
peninsula ship models are to be seen
in show windows, in dining rooms
and on the home mantels.
Boat modelling is happy hobby
and costs little to ride for most of the
material can be salvaged, If it is
sailing boat you want you can find
ample designs in the books listed
below:

Cupboard Motor Boats-Burnham

HALLIBURTON WILL ATTRACT
LARGE CROWD

Richard Halliburton's visit to the
Eastern Shore will attract hundreds
10 the State Teachers College at
Salisbury when he speaks at that in
stitution on the evening of April %,
at $3.50 o'clock. Mr.. Halliburton is
we'll known as speaker, having
held audiences all over the country
spellbound by the hour with the
revelation of his very entertaining
experiences. This very promising
program is being sponsored by the
college for the benefit of the Student
Loan Fund.
Richard Halliburton first book,
written in 1925 when he was 25 and
three years out of Princeton Uni
versity, crossed well over S1,225,O0O
1t was in greater demand in public
libraries than any non-fiction book
since 1900. 1t headed the best
seller lists all over the English
speaking world for a solid year and
was translated in twelve countries.
He has written three books since
that one: 1.-THE Glorious Adventure"
New Worlds to Conquer, and THE
Flying Carpet. Each of these has
duplicated the astounding perform
ance Of the first. His newest book,
Seven League Boots, published in
November, 1895, the publishers be-
lieve will surpass even the sales rec
ords set by the previous four. The
advance sale on a Halliburton book
is larger than the advance sale of
any other non-fiction work published
on this continent.
Immediately after college, Halli-
burton set out, deliberately without
resources, to explore the world and
write it down in a book. He had an
infallible sense of what places were
interesting and romantic. He climb
ed Matterhorns and Fujiyamas, ran
the original Marathon, swan the
Hellespont, lived an entire summer
with the prisoners on DEVILS Island,
took two-year flying tour around
the world in his own airplane, met
the most famous people on earth,
fought pirates, joined the French
Foreign Legion. He has lived on
Crusoes Island in the same manner
as Crusoe, has crossed the Himalayas
to visit baby God in Tibet, has bat
tied cobras in Malay, lived in palaces,
huts and jails, dined with kings,
killers and cannibals. Among his
personal friends are James Brooke,
a white man who is supreme poten-
tate of 100000 Borneo headhunt-
ers, King Ghazi l of Iraq and EN-
peoror Kang Teh of Manchukuo.
Sixty-four of the largest news
papers in the country bought the
second serial rights to "The Royal
Road to Romance" and 1.-THE Glori-
Gus Adventure" The Baltimore
Sun and Washington Star are among
this number.

DR.. Harold G. Campbell, Superin-
tendent of Schools in the City OF
New York, on March "a, 1886, called
upon the school teachers of that city
to stress the Importance of world
peace without reference to any doc
trine, such as "pacifism" or the
philosophy of "non-resistance."
Although Superintendent Camp
bell set forth his message in the
form of a circular which was dis
tributed among about $1,000 teach
ers, he instructed each principal and
associate superintendent to use his
own judgment in carry forward the
peace education program, but en-
phasized the need of enlisting the
cooperation of pupils in all phases
of the work.

BIG TEN OF FARM CROPS IN
CLUDEs WOODLOT TREES

Forest products are tenth in the
Big Ten of farm crops. They are
ranked in value only by cotton,
wheat, truck crops, tobacco, fruits
and nuts, potatoes, corn and hay,
and outrank 35 other major farm
crops such as barley, beans, rice, rye,
peanuts, and sugar crops, according
to latest figures of the United States
Department of Agriculture.
These figures show that farm
woodlands pay their owners nearly
$63, 100000 year; that farmers re-
ceived S5,636,000 a year from such
sales in New York, $4,695,0OO in
Georgia, and $4,022,000 in Wiscon-
sin. These sales are returns from
farm forests and do not include in
dustrial production.
In southern States forest products
were from third to seventh in i'm
portance among farm crops, with a
cash income of nearly $24,0O0,0OO
Forest products were first among
farm crops in New Hampshire and
Vermont, third in Missouri, and thir-
teenth in Ohio and Illinois.
Farm woodlands, the Forest Ser
vice estimates, provide an average of
100000 farmers with supple
mental cash incomes, plus wood and
building material for their own use
The Forest Service urges farmers to
apply woodland management prac-
tees that will keep their farm woods
continuously productive

writes, as outstanding news inter-
prefer and editorial commentator,
Brisbane is foremost in America.
For as long as he has been writing
he has sought for the truth behind
the news, announced where others
have hesitated, put the facts into
coordination like the pieces of a de-
sign and given America his unbiased
conclusions.
More than 25 million Americans
read his column regularly. His i'm
mense audience is as variegated as
our national life. There is hardly
a hamlet so obscure, scarce farm
home so remote that Brisbanes in
fluence doesn't penetrate to it.
There is a reason why the famous
why, right now, it is studied with a
concentration of attention unexam-
pied in newspaper history. The
world faces staggering problems,
Old concepts waver-new leaders
arise. Clashing nations assemble to
parley-and adjourn in deadlock.
Millions walk the streets of unem-
ployment while labor debates in
circles.
One newspaper pen, in all this
bewilderment, remains fortnight,
straight to the point. 1t was he who
stated, years before the World War,
that a conflict was inevitable. He
predicted four years of war and that
American participation would con-
clude it. He foretold the postwar
Madness" the fantastic prosperity,
the Wall Street crash of 1929. The
prohibition experiment, he gave
notice, would be abrogated by the
people about 1888 or 1884. He
forecast the election of Franklin D.
Roosevelt-recognition of Russia
Japan's aggression in the East.
And yet Brisbane would be the
last man in America to lay claim to
prescience. He never has an Gin
side tip" But he knew these things
would come to pass because they
were on the face of the facts of the
world as he construed them.
Facts, actualities, what must and
will occur, are Brisbane's strength
with his readers. Profound expert
ence, incessant study of events and
men, pen that knows no brother
these are his equipment. His in
comparable clarity of style makes
even a complex topic completely
understandable.
Right now, therefore, when the
world tensely faces problems of UNI
usual Importance, is the time to turn
to Brisbane's column in every issue
of this paper.

As Senate committees considered

AS Senate committees considered
various bills for flood control the
House passed and sent to the Senate
a bill providing aid for the rehabili-

would authorize loans by the RFC to
corporations and individuals up to a
total of $25,0OO,OO0 for repair and
construction of buildings and equip
ment as well as for replacement OF
damaged gas, water, sewer, electric

The U. S. Office of Education, un-
der the Department of the Interior,
has recently issued an illustrated
bulletin of some sixty pages, entitled
Parent Education Opportunities. 1t
has been prepared for the purpose OF
helping parents apply sound prin-
ciples in the problems of child train
ing. It reveals to the reader where
data may be had on how to approach
child problems in the home and
family situations. The material is
founded on the experiences of par
ents, teachers, and social leaders
handling such problems.
Parent education has had phe-
nomenal growth during the past six
years, due to the complex social and
economic conditions and to the in
ability of parents to train children
properly in their present-day envir-
onments, after school hours.
To meet the urgent demands of
this new field of education, courses
have been established in colleges and
universities to train lay and profess
sional leaders.

FOOLS and
BEANS

EOOLS rush in, SO they tell US,
IL where angels fear to tread.
But if it weren't for fools we'd
be treading the same old paths
much too often.
Much has been said of flying
fools, those daring aviators who
blaze the airways for us. but per
haps too little note has been given
to cooking-fools. They are culin-
airy pioneers who dare to do
things different with usually an
unerring instinct for little nice
ties of flavor.
Combinations You'll Approve
Baked beans, for example-just
plain baked beans-are hard to
beat when properly baked But
if it weren't for some cooking fool,
we'd be satisfied to go on just bak
ing our beans the rest of our days.
Who, but fool, would ever
have thought to combine baked
beans with cheese and nuts in a
casserole dish; of making them
into sandwiches in company with
ham and pickle; or of cooking
them with corned beef, carrots and
tomatoes? These are some of the
delicious dishes that we must
thank fools for-because they had
imagination and initiative.
Which one will you have? The
casserole dish is the easiest, and
it's good.
Bean and Cheese Casserole;
Dice four slices of bacon and fry
crisp. Remove, Erain off most of
the fat, add one-fourth cup of
pecans and brown gently. Add
one-third cup diced cheese, the
contents of one can of New Eng
land oven-baked beans, bacon dice
and salt to taste. Pour into
creased individual bakers. Cut
two slices of bacon in halves and
place piece on top Of each. Bake
in the oven until the bacon is
crisp. This serves four persons.

FRESH
COFFEE CAN ALWAYS BE

"FT SMELLS so nice and fresh!"
l. "Yes-it must be freshly
ground"
This dialogue dates back to the
days before coffee was packed in
vacuum cans. In those days If
coffee was fresh when you got it
it was news Today, we don't
expect to find il any way other
than freshly ground 1t is freshly
ground, and once ii is scaled in
the vacuum can-that's that.
The rest of its career is up to
you. Once you have removed the
top, inhaled its rich roasted
aroma, the Gamer has done his
part. Then, you are either going
to have good coffee or bad coffee
depending on what you do with
it. For there are only two kinds
of coffee, good and bad Any cup
of coffee that is less than perfect
is a failure.
Do You Know the Rules?
A research laboratory which ex-
perimented for one year in order
to find out how to make the best
cup of coffee warns housewives to
be sure that the grocer's supply
of coffee has been delivered to him
recently, unless it is vacuum
packed, for it will retain it's fresh
ness for only eight or nine days
after roasting unless packed i'm
mediately under vacuum.
They warn also against the old
fashioned recipe calling for zone
beaping tablespoonful of coffee for
each cup, and one heaping table
spoonful for the pot" for the rea-
son that no two "heaping table
spoonfuls" are precisely the same.
Instead use two level standard
tablespoonfuls of coffee for each
measuring cupful of water.
If you use drip coffee-making
device, and most people prefer this
kind, set the device over heat on
an asbestos mat In this way the
coffee does not boil. Boiling ruins
the flavor. Serve the finished
brew as soon as possible.*
