Dogs Not Affected by Air Raids in Progress Dog lovers often ask how the dogs in England are getting along in the terrible air raids now in progress. On this point a letter from a lady who keeps a famous kennel of Irish setters on the outskirts of London was received. She writgs: “You would laugh at my dogs trooping into the dugout when things get lively here. Only one dog, Champion Veracity, was scared by the noise and now she has got completely used to it My old Champion Vanity has got the whole thing taped, she will stay in the house until guns or bombs are loud, then she scuttles into the dugout.” Another letter says: "In a dog’s home near the coast the inmates recently showed complete indifference to the sirens and even to exploding bombs. There are cases where both dogs and cats have learned to know what an air-raid warning means and promptly make off and take cover. The other day a heavy bomb fell within a mile of a shed full of dogs, they were unperturbed. Above another dog’s home raiders unloaded and the antiaircraft batteries were in action. Not a dog even barked. They were all less affected than if it had been a thunderstorm.” It would appear that man’s best friend is standing up to the raids well. , Wormwood Wormwood is a bitter aromatic plant used for medicines and tonic.

Synthetic SubstancesSex hormones from soy beans and from coal tar and natural gas were among sensational new synthetic substances announced to a research conference on organic chemistry at Stanford university. In addition, Dr. L. I. Fieser of Harvard university told the conference that he and his associates had discovered a new synthetic vitamin' possessing the properties of both vitamin E (muscle-protection) and vitamin K (anti-hemorrhage). Among other recent syntheses, great interest has been aroused in a substitute for quinine developed by Professors Dorothy Thompson and Maude Marshall of Wheaton college. The substance is a compound of a sulfanilamide derivative of carbozole. It still awaits final tests. Device for Deflecting Glare An attorney of Sumter, S. C., has recently obtained a patent on a device for automobiles that reflect car lights over the head of the driver and at the same time gives him clear visibility on meeting a brightly lighted automobile traveling in the opposite direction. Harmon D. Moise, who lays claim to this invention, explains the device as being a thin, transparent device, attachable to an automobile windshield, which is glued to the inside | of the windshield, with the thin edge downward, deflecting the light rays upward over the driver’s head. The first prisms Were made of glass, but recently he has been experimenting with a plastic substance which is as clear as glass and less fragile and probably lasts longer. Beggars Not Only Thieves When we think of thieves, we recall to mind a group of rough, uncouth men who snatch property from unsuspecting victims. But the great mass of stealing under the head of Grand Larceny that is done today is done by respectable (?) white-collar people. Often the thief is a college graduate, has a respectable family and pays his bills on time. Usually these thieves are not actually in need of money but take it to buy luxuries of some sort or to gamble. Money is illegally got through extortion, peddling, vice, embezzlement and stock swindling, we are told, by these white-collar, salaried people.

Desserts Can Be Different — Try This!

DON’T let the fragile appearance of meringue pie shells deceive you! They’re not at all difficult to make successfully if you follow two very simple suggestions—beat the sugar In gradually, and use a constant low temperature for baking. Because meringue shells can be filled with almost any combination of sugared berries and cut fruit in season, they are a summer-long solution to the dessert problem. So, if you are searching for something easy to eat as well as eaßy to make in a summer dessert, look no further! The meringue in the picture above was filled with ripe-red strawberries and cut fresh pineapple—a combination which is cool, and refreshing. Then, as the season advances there will be raspberries, blackberries, fresh peaches and apricots to take the place of these fruits. This Strawberry Pineapple Meringue Pie is versatile in menu uses too; It can be used for a porch party, set out on a summer buffet table, or served as the cool finale to a midday dinner on* a warm Sunday. But back to meringue making. One absolute essential is an oven that will maintain a low constant temperature (about 275° F.) for as long as an hour a requirement which the modern electric pven meets without question. Jn an electric oven, in fact, the sensitive temperature controls and heavy insulation all combine to make such low temperatures easy

Bamboo ISO Feet Higb In Jungles of Burmese Another odd kind of Burmese boat is fitted with long-handled oars. The ears are so long that they cross each other in the boat. The man who is rowing holds the rightside oar in his left hand, and the left-side oar in his right hand. Among the rivers of Burma is the Irrawaddi. It runs for 1,300 miles, from the mountains in. the northern part of the country down to the Bay of Bengal. One of the cities on its banks is Mandalay, which -was made famous through a poem written by Kipling. Burma is a big country, with about a quarter of a million square miles. The population is close to 16,000,000. A great deal of the country is covered with forests and jungles. In the jungles there are dense bamboo thickets. The bamboo stalks grow so closely together, in some parts, that a person could not push his way through them. The Wabo bamboo in Burma has stalks as much as 10 inches thick, and they reach a height as great as ISO feet. That is rather tall for a plant which is classed as a grass! Among the wild animals are tigers, bears, leopards, apes and monkeys. The rhino and the elephant also roam the land. Rangoon, the capital of Burma, contains more than 400,000 people. It has a fine water supply system, and many modern built homes. New Style Gloves The first time you see a pair of leather gloves without the usual ‘points” (“points” are those tuckeffects which run up the center of the back), the plain expanse of leather may be quite a shock to you. Probably you’ll wonder, too, if the absence of the points won’ty make your hands look larger. The answer to that is ... it won’t particularly, and even if it did, who'd care, because the “pointless” glove looks so new and smart. It’s an idea quite a few American leather glove designers are playing with, so you won’t have any trouble finding some to try on and see how they look on your own hands.

to maintain. The meringue, therefore, is simply shaped on an ordinary pie pan and needs no special attention while baking. Simply set the electric reminder clock to chime when the hour is up and remove from the oven at that time. Here is the recipe: Pineapple Strawberry Meringue Pie (Serves 6) 2 cups sugar % teaspoon cream of tartar 4 egg whites 1 pint strawberries 1 fresh pineapple (medium-size), Sift together 1 cup of sugar and the cream of tartar. Beat egg whites until stiff but not dry; then i gradually add to them the sugar mixture, while continuing to beat i until thoroughly blended.

Preheat electric oven to 275“ F. and bake meringue for 1 hour; remove from oven’and place on cake rack to cool. Wash strawberries, hull; and cut in halves lengthwise. Wash pineapple, pare, and remove eyes. Quarter and remove core. Slice quarters very thin with sharp knife —there should be about 2 cups.
