poultry SHOW SOON TO OPEN IN' CHICAGO Chicago, Sept. 24.—All barnyard sounds have long been familiar in Chicago Stock Yards except those given out by its feathered colony. The missing strain will be added to the symphony of moos, grunts, squeals and bleats on the occasion of the Midwest Poultry Exposition which will dominate the scene here October 15 to 19. The show will be held in the International Amphitheater, famed for its annual reviews of prize live stock exhibited at the International Live Stock Exposition. The first of a series of annual events, devoted exclusively to poultry, is now to be held in the same setting. Largest Ever Held The show will be the largest exposition of its kind ever held in Chicago, the industrial hub of this billion dollar industry. An important feature will be an extensive competitive exhibition of the various breeds of poultry open to both adult and 4-H exhibitors. Entries for these competitions will close October 11. There will also be contest featuring baby chicks and eggs. Leaders in the retail distribution of poultry products will direct programs | deigned to educate the consumer on the proper quality of poultry as well as the tasty preparation and economical use of these products. Poultry packers will install exhibits illustrating modern and attractive methods of packaging poultry goods which will be interesting and informing to both retailers and consumers. The opening day, Friday, October 15, will be free to women visitors and will be designated “Women’s Day.” A series of programs stressing poultry and egg cookery will be given twice daily. A cake baking contest, with divisions for both adults and young people, is planned in this connection. Special Events Scheduled Other events will include a poultry plucking contest, a poultry calling contest, and special entertainment programs scheduled for both afternoons and evenings, while the numerous exhibits, educational features, and demonstrations will provide a complete picture of this vast and highly important industry in all of its phases. _—__—o Some time you will go down to the post office or out to the mail box for your mail and there won’t be any mail.

A WRONG PERSPECTIVE By Tessa Dent
“Stone walls do not a prison make, Nor iron bars a cage; Minds innocent and quiet take That for an hermitage; If I have freedom in my love, And in my soul am free, Angels alone, that soar above, Enjoy such liberty.”

I feel it most necessary for someone to call attention to practices that have crept into the sorority system at our universities. These organizations, splendid institutions as they are in many respects, have obtained an importance and prestige in the eyes of young girls just entering college, which have elevated them to a posi. tion they are in no way entitled to occupy at an institution of learning. Like our universities, they have grown in size to the point where understanding, personality, friendship, and an interest in the new freshman, is entirely lacking. The average student stands in awe of them—they have built up an air of mystery, of superiority, to a point equaled only by religious fanaticism. To the uninitiated beginner, it seems to be a matter of supreme importance that she gain admittance to the sorority of her choice. Her entrance to the university and all it may offer her in preparing for her future, pales into insignificance in comparison with her fear of not being bid to the sorority. A rebuff in the heartless manner in which it is given by these organizations may color her whole future. Too many girls fail to recognize that sororities exist merely as an adjunct to college life and are in no sense a part of a college education except as a social attraction. It takes a strong character, however, and considerable experience to recognize these facts early in college experience. The glamour of the sorority during rushing periods when the members are all on their best behavior, when their own petty squabbles within their houses, the jealousies between their members, the snobbishness on the part of a few, arid the lack of superior characteristics that crop out once the rushing season is over, are not known in time to the average girl who thinks her college life will be ruined if she is not bid to one of them. The poor freshman, as she approaches a sorority house with palpitating heart, is unaware that sororities do not even enjoy an unchanging reputation, for the prestige of one declines and the fortunes of another rise as the personnel varies from year to year. If, she fails to receive the bid she 1 covets she quite unjustifiably regards the incident as a humiliating defeat. She enters upon her career under a severe moral handicap. If she is a sensitive char, acter, it may ruin her college life. In extreme cases girls have been so depressed they can not continue their studies. It is time that someone called attention to these facts. The principle upon which sororities were founded f/as comradship. helpfulness, fraternalism—but today with the expensive houses that have been built and the front that must be maintained, it has become necessary to choose girls on a quantity basis rather than a quality basis. One of the principal adjuncts is the financial standing of their parents, their mixing qualities in a social way, their automobile and other superficial assets as compared to the old-fashioned asset of character. The girls who choose the new

members are too often entirely unqualified to m^ke a choice. A frivoloris or light-headed girl Is inclined to have her head turned when chosen and think she is better than her sister who did not make the same sorority. So many members have to be taken into the modern sorority to maintairi "house” expenses that there is often no opportunity for real selection, as the seats at the table have to be filled in order to hold down the board bills. ft is time a more wholesome view was taken as to the “unimportance” of sororities in college life. They should be stripped of their unhealthy glamour and the class distinction they build up. The popularity necessary for admittance to the most sought-after sorority comes easily to some and is not evidence of outstanding character, intelligence or ladylikeness. It is essential that the qualifications for membership in a sorority, to be of lasting value, should be on a high plane. There was the reason for sorority organization originally. But the heartlessness of the “selection” process today, the lack of tact, the pettiness, the snobbishness, and the down-right unlady-likeness too often found in members have laid the sororities open to critical observation and consideration by parents as well as freshmen. Young girls should not feel that their college career is ruined if they are not asked to join sororities, for when they have more experience they may feel themselves lucky that they are not tied to a society which, when the glamour is removed, they find it is a distinct financial liability instead of a social asset. Having seen the grief that the present sorority system has caused many girls, innocent of its stage settings and its superficiality, I feel it my duty to express these opinions, not to hurt the sorority, but to help the bewildered student. It is time the sorority showed more justification for its existence than an air of mysticism to bewilder the uninitiated.
RAILROAD NEARS SCRAP IRON PILE
Virginia, 111.—A tiny branch railway - of'’Midwest pioneer " cFays, which carried farm products to markets before armies clashed in the Civil War, goes on the auction block here Oct. 4, bowing before the competition of stronger rivals. The road is the Jacksonville and Havana, a 41-mile branch running through Virginia from Jacksonville to Havana. Part of it was built by the Illinois River Railroad company organized in 1853, and the construction was completed in 1869. r lhe road is a remnant of the Chicago, Peoria & St. Louis raiiroad, which battled through a 13year receivership and fina ly broke into four branches in 1926. A group of men formed the Jacksonville & Havana company, anu me road carried freight and passengers until competition on a parallel highway left enough business for only two freight trains a week. The other three parts of the road are still alive, the branch between East St. Louis and Grafton being operated by the Illinois Terminal, the one from Springfield to Pekin by the Chicago & Illinois Midland and that from Springfield to Lockhaven by the Chicago, Springfield & St. Louis. The owmers of the 41-mile line plunged into receivership in 193U as trucks began to carry grain to market*and bus lines took the passenger traffic. The line continued to run its two freight trains each w r eeK until it was no longer possible to pay op-rvp-Mnr- o'-penqg-, niid fpp receivers decided to place the road on sale. Junk dealers, enjoying swollen demand from the munitions industries, are expected to be the principal binders for the property. Eleven villages, the largest boasting a population of less than 1.000, will be left without rai’ transportation by the road’-s liquidation.

China’s United Front Deemed Proof Chiang Kept Faith With Kidnapers
SONGS OF BIRDS RADIO RECORDED
New York, Sept. 24.—Tire series | the head,
of - dispatches from China written by Madame Chiang Kai Shek and published in some American newspapers after the kidnaping of her distinguished husband last December, appeared today in book form,
“Gen. Chiang Kai Shek.”
The book includes a brief preface by Madame Chiang, the articles w T hich appeared in newspapers after the kidnaping, Generalissimo Chian g’s diary while he 4 -, was in the hands of the kidnapers, and his subsequent admonition to Marshal Chiang Hsueh-liang after he had been released by that for-
mer Manchurian war lord.
The volume is noteworthy more for what it fails to reveal than for what it contains. It gives the impression, for example, that Chiang was released by the anti-Japanese and Communist bands which caused his seizure, purely because of his moral courage in refusing
to yield to their demands.
Since the kidnaping, developments have demonstrated that the generalissimo made very real concessions to his captors before they
released him.
A survey of the demands of the kidnapers, for example, shows that all of these demands now have been met by the Central Chinese government, of which Chiang is
.The demands included"vwriif *H. 1. —Formation of a united front of all Chinese factions, including the Communist party, for armed resistance to Japanese aggression. 2. The incorporation of the Chinese Communist party into the Central government, and the recognition of its army as an essential unit of the armies of a united
China.
3. —A broadening in the base of the Central goverenment to give minority groups, such as Marshal Hsueh-liang’s former ManchurkM army, the Communists, the semiindependent Chinese armies in the south, and others, representation in the conduct of national affairs. That all of these demands have
t*'en met now is history.
However, Madame Chiang’s book constitutes a valuable historical document. It is the inside story in one of the most amazing kidnap-
ings of all history. — o

Moscow.—Production of the first serial of the new film, “Peter 1,” has been completed. It was produced by Director V. M. Petrov, and is based on the novel of the
same title by Tolstoy.
Ithaca, N. Y.—The first attempt to record the voice of any bird on film by means of radio has been pronounced successful by ornithologists at Cornell university, where the first records ever made of the voices of Atlantic petrels were tested. Albert R. Brand of the Laboratory of Ornithology at Cornell, pioneer in bird-song recording, sought the petrels on their own doorstep. With the aid of an assistant. Brand traveled in his sound truck to northern Maine, ferried across to the island of Grand Manan and arrived within six miles of Kent Island, where Bowdoin college maintains a biological laboratory, among the rocks on the outer slope of the island, Brand found a colony of Leach’s petrels in burrows which they dig and accurate record of this frog-like chorus of bird voices, but being unable to get the sound truck to the island, a mile of telephone wire was laid from a short-wave radio station which keeps the laboratory in touch with the rest of the world, to the petrel colony. A sensitive microphone, with,its. parabolic reflectbr, was attached. , to the end of the telephone line:..

Half past summer and early fall find market-stalls filled with all the mellow fruitfulness of the season! The sight of fruits and vegetables, their skins bursting with goodness, is enough to delight the artist’s soul of every true cook. Queen of these mid-summer beauties, the fairest blonde in all the fruit world, is the California Bartlett Pear. The appearance of these sun-ripened, mild, and mellow fruits means harvest as surely as swallows make a summer. Because of their juicy mildness, their full-ripened goodness, fresh pears adorn any number of the season’s- loveliest salads. ’The
health values of these beauties from California also recommend them to the early autumn mealplanner. The pear is luscious, simple, and best when served simply. A mid-season salad whidi stars fresh Bartletts admirably is easily made as follows: Place thUk slices of cantaloupe, or pineapple on a nest of lettuce. Slice fresh pears with the skin left on, and arrange like the wings of an airplane. Garnish with a sprinkling of blueberries; add a dash of lemon juice.
