Monroe, Harry Staub, David Weaver and Wm. Britt of George- town, Mr. Burdett of Takoma Park and Mr. Carr of Hyattsville, Md., have returned after a most pleasant and successful hunt in the Alleghany mountains. The party got three very fine deer, one wild turkey, two pheas- ants, two large foxes, fifty or more rabbits and about one hundred quail. It was the intention of the club to hunt quail princi- pally, but. finding larger game, they all soon contracted the buck fever. Most of the gentlemen had the pleasure of administering the usual punishment to Dr. Monroe for shooting at and missing a deer, but he afterward redeemed himself by kil ing a fine doe. School Entertainment. The pupils of the Tenleytown public school gave a very pleasing and successful enter- tainment last evening at the school, which was attended by a large number of friends. The program embraced choruses by the third, fifth, first, second and fourth grades. Others who assisted in the program were Prof. R. R. Riordan, Mr. Frank Cox, Miss AtLee, Mrs. Bangeter, Mr. J. H.

From the Philadelphia Record. Electric heating, instead of kaving sunk into innocuous desuetude as many have imagined, is really thriving and ne: cations are being constantly discovered. use in the household, it is true, proved as extensive as one w: has not tive assertions that there field for apparatus of this character have beer amply borne out by experienc For minor heating purposes in apartment houses, hotels and private residences pos- sessing electric Mght service there is now a steady demand for a lirge number of ap- pliances. In commercial work its use for electric welding has developed into a dis- tinct and thriving industry, and the manu- facture of electric heaters for trolley cars and automobiles keeps several large com- panies busy. Among the newest applications may be mentioned its use for the heating of bak- ers’ ovens and for the prevention of the sweating of glass show windows. At Niag- ara Falls and Buffalo almost every manu- facturing concern has adopted electric power, generated by the Niagara Falls Flant, and consequently sold at compara- tively low rates. Among other new con- verts to electric power in Buffalo a large baking concern is mentioned as seriously ecntemplating the substitution of electric ovens for their present ones; indeed, it is announced that contracts have already been entered into for the installation of such a plant. It is pointed out that using their heat intermittently the advantage of a source of heat that could be controlled at will, instantly turned on or off, and reg- ulated for any temperature desired, will outweigh any disadvantage there might be in the matter of greater cost of operation. Now that the winter season is here again and more attention than ever ts given to window displays, the use of electric heaters for preventing condensation cn the glass windows is attracting attention. The scheme of operating an electric fan in the show windows to prevent sweating has al- ready proved a practical siccess, but there are many cases in which a running fan is objectionable, not being in keeping with the display. As almost every store is now pro- vided with electric light service and electric heaters can be purchased in all sizes on the open market, the interest in this new ap- plication of ‘electric heating is universal. All that is necessary is to place a smali electric heater In the window in any con- cealed rosition and to connect it with the lighting mains. The expense of operation would not be very great and the great nuisance of sweating windows would be en- tirely overcome. ————_-e-_____ Transferred to the Hospital Corps.
