Grape time is here—or almost here. Banning today is much simpler than it was thirty years ago. Then again, only seven pounds of Inexpensive grapes may quickly be turned into almost two dozen glasses of jelly and grape butter— glasses filled w'ith flavor, minerals, vitamins and sugar, with its quick energy value. Another economy factor is the fact that sugar is today selling at about the lowest price in its history. Here are two recipes through w'hich both juice and pulp may be utilized, and they should be popular where economy is the keyword: Stem about seven pounds fully npe grapes, and crush thoroughly. Add % cup water, cover, and simmer five minutes. Place fruit in Canton flanael jelly bag. Drip until four cups Juice have run through. Use juice for the jelly (recipe follows). Sieve pulp left in jelly bag to remove skins and seeds. Then use this seed pulp for grape butter.

Here, for || the first time publicly the direcp tional effect is obtained in teleii phone transmission. On a glass enclosed stage is Oscar, a dummy with microphones concealed within his head, one on each side. The listeners sit at desks outside, with receivers held to their ears. A young man approaches Oscar, talks over his shoulder, moves to the other side. To the audience, it seems exactly as if someone were talking over their shoulclers, from the same position in which the' speaker is placed in relation

to Oscar.

Perfect Illusion

“What’s that behind you, Oscar,” asks the young man, and the audience instinctively looks around. The listener thinks he is in Oscar’s place, so perfect is the illusion. The effect is obtained, explained Engineer R. M. Pease, by perfect transmission of sound and the use of two separate telephone Circuits. The microphone in Oscar's right, ear is connected to the receivers which the audience e-j holds to the right ear, and the

same is true for the left.
