saves many weary steps to cold cell
lar or spring house but also protects
the family health and reduces food
waste to a minimum. An electric
range has many advantages over
other means of cooking, among them
cleanliness, GOODNESS, safety and econ-
omy.
Small electrical appliances of many
kinds. together with a modern sink
and sufficient wall and base cabinets
for storage, can make kitchen work
easier, more convenient and save an
other month of eight-hour days in
the kitchen each year.
The ideal solution to the kitchen
problem in any farm home is to in
stall what is commonly known as a
unit electric Kitchen combina-
ton of electric range. refrigerator,
water heater, sink. dishWasher and
cabinets-at one time. You car obtain
a detailed plan for such a kitchen in
your home by sending a rough dimen-
Sonal sketch of your present kitchen
to any one of several manufacturers
of major electrical appliances or to
certain of the leading farm magazines.
The cost of installing a modern
kitchen can be financed on convenient
monthly payments directly through
the manufacturers, your REA CO.
operative or the Electric Home and
Farm Authority. Or, if you do not
care for deferred payments and cam
not afford to pay cash for complete
unit kitchen at once, you can install
it piece by piece as your income per-
mits. However you finance it, you will
find that it pays real dividends in
time, work and money.

By the Associated Press.
ISTANBUL, Turkey, April 1S.-
Planning for evacuation of Turkish
Thrace facing Bulgaria and Greece
continued today as the press con-
ceded that Yugoslavia was finished
and that the Balkan war has en-
tered its last stage"
"Yugoslavia is about to be torn to

order to buy furniture and other
goods at sacrifice prices. There is
no need Of such panic
Istanbul's only subway, q half

Commenting on the United States
promise OF help to Yugoslavia, the

ut is sad to think that when help
arrives Yugoslavia will be no more.
Couldn't America move more quickly
in the face Of the speed Of modern
warfare? But. perhaps, the distance
is so great that happenings here
seem trivial in America"

HOW:
TO SIT IN A CHAIR WHILE AT
A DESK OR ELSEWHERE.-

i
TO SIT IN A CHAIR WHILE AT
A DESK OR ELSEWHERE
Most persons have no idea how
best to sit while working, &C.
cording to a report prepared by
an expert on the subject, says
the Los Angeles Times. The most
trying way to sit is to SLOUGH
back in a chair and allow the
chin to droop on the chest. The
most important mistake in sit
ting, he says, is to allow the
weight to rest on the spine.
ITO sit so as to conserve ener-
gy," he writes, "sit well back in
your chair, so that your weight is
on the bottom Of your thighs in
stead of on the base Of your
spine. Nature has eliminated all
nerves from the parts Of the pei
Wis that support us while sitting.
For desk or table work Of any
kind, draw one foot back by the
side of your chair and lean for
ward slightly, bending at the
hips, not at the neck or waistline.
Never allow your shoulders to
get back Of your hips. There
is something magically exhila-
rating about this position. One
has to work in it."
Authors report that the experts
sitting system permits them to
write many hours without IA
tigue, and school-teachers report
ed an increase Of Is per cent in
efficiency the first day their pu-
pills tried it.
One advantage for the method,
say business men, is that the
poised position discourages those
who would waste their time with
needless chatter, or unwelcome
sales talks.

Two Battleships Get
Lost In Fog

In the spring of 1914, Admiral
Coontz, then a Captain, was in
command of the Battleship
Georgia., which was operating
in the New York-Narragansett
area with the Atlantic fleet.
During one of these fleet man
euvers and while all ships were
teaming peacefully along in
their assigned positions, a dense
fog set in necessitating extreme
vigilance in order to maintain
proper station in the fleet for
nation. Exceptional care was
required because, in this par
ttcular area, there was always
a great deal of merchant ship
ping.
Leading the battleship column
was the flagship, and the fourth
ship in this column was the
Georgia." When the heavy fog
set in, all ships sounded their
fog. signals and made every ef-
Tort to maintain their stations
as carefully as they could.
When the fog finally lifted
and they started counting noses
the Georgia" found herself to
be the second ship in the COL
umn, trailing closely behind the
flagship. The two battleships
that were supposed to be be-
tween the flagship and the
Georgia" had compile teIv
strayed from the fold and were
nowhere to be found in the for
nation. Upon scanning the hor-
lion and about five miles awav.
they finally spied the two lost
vessels which, by mistake. had
been trailing the fog horn of a
big ocean liner.
The Good Ship Lizzie Lou
There was once a congenial
first mate on the Yankee lum-
Der schooner Lizzie Lou. One of
MS duties was to write up the
daily log. He did this faithfully
over a long period of time until
the ship reached port and the
mate stepped ashore. The next
day the skipper sent for the
log and discovered that the
Mate had neglected to enter
the doings of the day. So the
skipper wrote up the log him
self: Mate was drunk all day."
The Mate, when he read it.
protested. It would look bad on
his record, he said. The skipper
replied, "You were drunk. it's
logged, and in the log it stays"
The following day the Mate
made an entry which read, "The
Captain was sober all day"

that our boatswain's mate has

Lesson Sermon which will be
read in all Churches of Christ,
Scientist, on Sunday, February
The Golden Text is IF we
live in the Spirit, let-us also walk
in the Spirit. Galatians 5:25).
Among the citations which
comprise the Lesson-Sermon is
the following from the Bible:
"Be We therefore followers of
God, as dear children; for ye
were sometimes darkness, but
now are We light in the Lord,
Wherefore be We not unwise,
but understanding what the will
of the Lord is" (Ephesians 5:
l, 8, 10, ID.
The Lesson-Sermon also in
cludes the following passage
from the Christian Science text
book, Science and Health with
Key to the Scriptures" by Mary
Baker Eddy:
Spiritual sense is the discern
ment of spiritual good. Under
standing Is the line of demarca-
ton between the real and the
unreal. Spiritual understanding
unfolds Mind-Life, Truth and
Love- and demonstrates the
Divine sense, giving the spirit
ual proof of the universe In
Christian Science. This under
standing is not Intellectual, is
not the result of scholarly at
tainments; it is the reality OF
all things brought to light.
