The New York Central and the New Haven contributfd. plenty of soot, but every now and rfjien •• protests of housewives, particularly- in the spring and summer when porch parties were In vogue, made to sympathetic ears, would be relayed to officials of the railroads, and their orders would send the soot dispensing trains out of the more thickly populated areas before the smoke screen was allowed to billow over the town. Now that the oil burner and the automobile exhaust add considerably to the Job of keeping houses and clothes clean and porches are less frequented the protests against soot are infre quent. What with tobacco pervading the air and ox blood varnish concealing finger and toe nails Phoebe Snow has fallen from the ranks of the celebrated. Rinso is supposed to conceal B.

Stores RITZ THEATRE BUILDING BREWSTER, N. Y. FRUIT CONTENT OF DAn.i IJ1ET Of Great Importance Because of Vitamin Supply. By EDITH IM. BARBER \X/"HILE fruits, of course, belong v * to the vegetable kingdom, we classify them separately from those foods which we call vegetables. In fruits most of the carbohydrate is in the form of sugar in contrast to the starch of vegetables. Like vegetables they are high in vitamins, in general, supplying us with larger amounts of vitamin C. Leafy vegetables, tomatoes and squash, however, can compete with even citrus fruits on this count. Most fruits supply, as well, a certain amount of one or more minerals. Like vegetables, they furnish roughage in the form of cellulose which aids the rhythm of digestion. While the majority of fruits are eaten in their raw form, cooking destroys very little of the vitamin content. Canned fruits can be counted upon to supply us with practically the same amount of vitamins which are furnished by the raw product. The natural acids of fruits are usually an advantage to digestion, excepting in special cases where there is already an excess of acid in the stomach. Even Jn such conditions ripe bananas, sweet cherries, cooked pears, apples and prunes can usually be taken. Let me call attention to the fact that the condition 6f acidosis is completely different from that of hyperacidity. No matter how acid the fruit is during digestion, after absorption, alkaline products which prevent acidosis, result. In no respect have the dietary customs of this country changed more than toward the fruit content of our daily ration. This change is, of course, wholly advantageous. Glazed Banana and Pineapple. 3 bananas 3 slices canned pineapple Granulated sugar Cut bananas and pineapple slices in halves. Arrange in a shallow baking dish and sprinkle with water. Bake in a moderate oven (375 degrees Fahrenheit) about ten minutes until the sugar is melted. Baked Rhubarb Pudding. 6 thin slices of bread. Butter 1 bunch rhubarb, cut into half inch pieces 1 cup sugar Butter the slices of bread on the loaf before cutting and line a buttered dish with the buttered side of the bread toward the dish. Fill with rhubarb and sugar, cover with bread and bake in a moderate oven (375' degrees Fahrenheit) half an hour. If rhubarb is very acid more sugar may be added. Wine Jelly. 2 tablespoons granulated gelatin. % cup cold water 1% cups boiling water % cup sugar Vi cup orange juice 3 tablespoons lemon juice 1V4 cups sherry Soak gelatin in cold water five minutes. Dissolve in boiling water. Add remaining ingredients and pour into a mold. Chill until set. Unmold and serve with whipped cream. Artichoke Salad. 1 can artichoke buds 2 tablespoons minced onion French dressing Pimento Remove artichokes from can and drain. Sprinkle with minced onion and a well-seasoned French dressing. Garnish with strips of pimento before serving. Prune and Raisin Pudding 3Vz cups milk % cup brown sugar Salt ZVi tablespoons cornstarch V4 cup raisins V» cup cut prunes Scald three cups of milk. Mix cornstarch and salt with rest of milk and add with sugar to hot milk. Stir until thick and smooth, add fruit and cook over hot water thirty minutes. Pour into large or individual molds and chill. Serve with plain or whipped cream. Citrus Marmalade. 1 grapefruit 1 orange 1 lemon Water Sugar Wipe fruit and slice very thin. Remove seeds of fruit and core of grapefruit. Measure and add three times the quantity of water. Let stand in dish overnight. Boil until the fruit is soft. Measure, add an equal amount of sugar and boil, stirring occasionally until the sirup jellies, about one hour. Pour into hot glasses and seal. Marmalade Variations. 1. Use six oranges and two lemons. 2. Use three grapefruits and two lemons. 3. Add one and one-half cupb crushed pineapple after fruit and sirup have been cooked fifteen minutes. 1 To cooked lruit, add two cui-v cooked cranberries and an equal amount of sugar. e Bill Syndlri:U-.--WNU gullet.

Hidden Genius By STANLEY CORDELL C Associated Newspapers. WNU Service. *"pHE Alpha, Alnha, Alpha, Alpha *• fraternity at Boynton university is responsible for the fate of Percival Oakes. It happened this way. During his freshman year the AAAA's pledged Percy to membership, and initiated him into the mystic three R's. (Rites, rituals and regulations.) Percy took it like a man. When ordered to imitate a dog howling at the moon, he did his level best. The result was astonishingly successful. The brother AAAA's cheered loudly and clamored for encores. Percy obliged a second time and a third. He was immensely pleased with the applause and the attention he attracted. The next day, en route to class, Percy was stopped by a gravefaced sophomore and asked to give his imitation of a dog howling at the moon. For a moment he hesitated, conscious of a circle of grinning faces that had silently formed about him, faintly resentful of the fact that the brothers of the AAAA had made public the discovery of his hidden genius. He planced once more into the grove face of the youth who had accosted him and then threw back his head and bayed lustily. A mighty roar of applause greeted the rendition. There were cries of "More!" "More!" Percival obliged a second time and then once more. He was ready and willing for a fourth delivery when the bell on "T" hall tolled forth its mellow note and the gathering dispersed. Percy hurried on to class alone. He was not disoleased with his morning's work. He had been at college four months, and this was the first time he had attracted any attention. Returning to college in the fall, Percy had completely put from his mind the cause and fact of his last year's popularity. There were other and more important things to occupy his interest. He was now a sophomore, with all the rights and liberties and sensations of importance that are synonymous with that lofty position. Chief among these, the ope which had proved the sharpest thorn in his bed of roses, was that which had prohibited or limited his association with coeds. Now, tincumbered by this fetter, Percy's first act as a sophomore was to join a group of classmates in eating lunch at the Commons for the express purpose of looking over the incoming stock of freshman lassies. One among them caused Percy's brain to swim. Here was loveliness and intelligence and femininity all combined. Unhappily, it took him a fortnight to negotiate an introduction. Her name was Delia Winter, and she was as r poDular as she was for nothing; she had her pick of th* COVCPQ. It was at ona of the Bnturdnv night informal drnefffi at t ,-, e college gym. They had baan daicinf? together for perhaps s'xty peenndf when Delia looked up at h'm and said: "Aren't you the bo^* v.'ho ran imitate a dog whi'e ho»vlini i.» th* moon?" Her eyes tr/*" , - , «H Percy reddened to the er~s. '•'•• felt a chill, a horrible ***• "sion. "No," he bler'cJ. Whoever told you that is rra-.y!" Delia didn't press the subject, bu* Percy knew he was sunk. He lei a month slip by before he COP Id conjure enough courage to ask for a date, felt pitifully grateful when she assented. No mention was mrde that nif'it of his genius, but Percy sensed it was on her mind; gloomily knew that the miserable experience oi last year was the seal of his doom, the closed door to this future happiness. Within the following month he kept five dates with Delia, but it was always the same: the "thing" was always there between them. She thought, must think him ridiculous She pitied him. During the intermission at the Dartmouth victory dance, Percy and Delia strolled out onto the now dry ice-skating rink and sat down on the bulwark and looked up 8t the moon. Because of his great and hopeless love Percy was moody, ui> happy, thoughtful. Suddenly he was startled by the petulant tone of his beloved. "I think it must be wonderful." she said. "What must?" arked PercivaJ. "To be able to imitate things. I mean, anyone can play football, or learn to skate, or dance well, but it takes genius to be able to imitate things." "Do—you mean that?" "Why, of course I do! I've always admired people who—have creative ability. Genius. Of course I mean it!" She looked squarely at him, and the last trace of doubt vanished from Percy's soul like mist fron. a river bed before a rising sun. He stood up, he threw back his head, he looked at the moon and from his throat there came the clear, deep, rich tones of a baying hound. There was in them a note of joy, of triumph, of fullness. They rose and fell and reached a new quality of perfection. Watching, the eyes of Delia Winter glowed and shone and sparkled in delighted admiration. Ryan Appointed To Board of Elections At the request of the Democratic Chairman, Alpha R. Whiton of the Town of Kent, a special meeting of the Board of Supervisors was called in order that the Board might appoint a person to fill the vacancy on the Board of Elections of Putnam County caused by the resignation of Elijah E. Tompkins of the Town of Putnam Valley, who tendered his resignation to the Board of Supervisors on August 16. 1937. to take effect as of September 1. 1937. Mr. Wpilton certified to the appointment of Edward P. Ryan who is also of the Town of Kent and offered a resolution to confirm Mr. Ryan's appointment which was unanimously adopted by the Board of Supervisors.

He had almost begun to think he would have to detrain at Dykemans or Tilly Poster. The pedestrian is not yet in the picture.

Augusta a , nd Washington, D. C—"Realizing that finger prints may be an effective means of identification in case of death or amnesia, increasing numbers of civilians are having their prints recorded at the federal bureau of investigation, a division or the United States Department of Justice that is perhaps better known as 'the G-Men,'" says the National Geographic society. "Visitors are conducted on tours through the identification division at the rate of several hundred a day. Many remain to have their fingerprints taken. In long chattering lines, busincssTnen and their wives, giggling girls, and solemn small boys pass before the recorder with his yellow stamp pad and small white cards marked off into spaces for each finger's print. "A young girl approaches, holding out red-nailed white hands. The recorder presses her right thumb firmly on the stamp pad and then down on the card, rolling it from right to left. 'Just relax, don't try to help me,' he instructs her, for if she presses with her thumb, it overinks and smudges the pattern. Offer Telltale Evidence. "He takes the marks of her right hand's fingers, one after another, and then those of her. left hand, individually. "Next he records, at a single impression, all the fingertips of her right hand, and, with another impression, all those of the left, as a check upon the sequence of the preceding prints. She stares amazed at the dark whorls on the card made by her unstained white fingertips. The colorless chemical solution on the stamp pad acts on the chemically-treated card, but remains invisible on the hand. "The federal bureau of investigation, with 237,000 sets of fingerprints in its civilian files, is increasing them at the rate of almost 800 a day. The bureau does not search for fingerprints of criminals among the prints in these files, but it may search for them among the prints of civil service employees, which are filed to keep men with prison records from holding positions of public trust. "Exhibited on the wall of the federal bureau of investigation is a device like a large automobilemileage-meter. Each time the last number on the right changes, it marks, not another mile, but a new set of criminal fingerprints received at the bureau. The number changes about 175 times an hour. The bureau, on duty twenty-four hours a day, receives during that time about 4,200 new records of people ent on to Bar Harbor * for a week end. under arrest. These are sent in from more than 10,000 law enforcement agencies all over the United States und from eighty foreign countries. It iVorlts Th's Way.*" - "Imagine that a suspect, Bill Smith, is arrested in Los Angeles. His fingerprints are taken with printer's blcck ink, which, with his photograph, are rushed to Washington to the federal bureau of investigation There they will be checked against fingerprints in the criminal files to see if he has a previous criminal record. If the check reveals that Bill Smith is really ex-convict 'Butcherknife Joe,' wanted in New Orleans for murder, two telegrams are sent, one to inform the Los Angeles authorities, another to tell New Orleans officials the Los Angeles police have their man. "Fingerprints found on weapons, woodwork, glass, and articles near a scene of a crime are also checked against prints in the bureau's criminal files and aid in capturing law violators. "Since no two fingerprints have ever been discovered whose patterns were identical, fingerprints of will equal any sales in Maine or Vermont.

But they cannot be entirely changed, even by the painful process of removing the skin. "The federal bureau of investigation has nearly seven million criminal fingerprint records on file, in more than 1,000 great green cases stretching for two city blocks within the building. Only 300,000 of these are records of women, the rest are of men. Workers search through these prints by hand, to check an incoming set of criminal prints against them. If the incoming fingerprints fall into a certain common classification, chiefly the ulnar loop type of pattern, the search is speeded up by a machine which ^PPers a night the 8th. 15th. 22nd and 29:h.
