Even-Tempered Refrigerators Outside cold is too variable these days to protect food in window boxes. Freeging for an hour or so—then sud- denly rising to warm enough for rain. Keep your expensive food in an even- tempered refrigerator—one that main- tains the same temperature no matter what the themometer registers. The U. S. Government says that the average | temperature in a good refrigerator is 48 degrees.

RUM AR CRASHES AFTER GETAWAY Smoke Screen Drives Off Pur- suing Officers in Race to Escape. With the engine still running and a smoke screen device belching dense concealing clouds, a car containing 66 gallons of liquor was found early this morning smashéd against a tree at Sec- ond and D streets southeast, after it had eluded six policeman in a mile-a- minute chase through Northeast Wash- ington a few minutes earlier. Eleventh precinct police say they had pursued the car as it brought its load of whisky in Washington Monday morning and again yesterday morning, but each time it escaped, assisted by the smoke screen. Four Officers Wait. This morning, they were informed, the two men who had driven the ma- chine on the previous occasions again would attempt to get through the police cordon with a large load of liquor. Ac- cordingly, four officers from the elev- enth precinct covered the eastern ap- proaches of the city and waited. Motor Cycle Policeman Ralph E. Burton, who was stationed on Benning road mnear the electric plant, was the first to sight the machine as it came speeding toward the city. Meanwhile, Policemen Chester F. Smith, William H. Humphries and George L. Earle re- ceived word that the rum runners would take the Benning road route and converged there as the machine passed Burton and he began the pursuit. Bur- ton alone was on a motor cycle, the others being in separate police auto- mobiles. Just as the car, closely followed by Burton, with the other officers strung out behind, passed the power plant at Benning it emitted a puff of smoke. Twice again as it sped along Benning road it threw off smoke in the faces of the officers who refused to give up the pursuit. Crash Route Undetermined. It is thought the car turned south at Sixth street northeast, but the route traveled to Second and D streets south- east, where the crash occurred, still is undetermined. It was found there by Policeman Walter S. Beck, driving the emergency car of the fifth precinct. Inside the machine were 11 cases of corn whisky containing 12 one-half- gallon jars each. Police say the car carried “dead” tags MISS MACDONALD LIKES RAPID PACE OF AMERICAN LIFE (Continued From First Page.) have stayed for a long while in an Amer- J o”inqbuu!iful “"RE.LATIMER 1072 Development | Nokol is a noiseless auto- matic Oil Burner Install Mokol Now 1719 Conn.

Essentially I am a rather stay-at-home person. I had no wan- derlust until Iacquired a taste for travel. Some people long to travel before they have a taste of it, but I had to have a taste before I saw the pleasures of it. I have done quite a fair amount of trav- eling since 1925, when I went on my first voyage with my father to Ceylon. Every trip since then was for me & little more eager—the States in 1927, Canada in 1928, Switzerland earlier this Summer. Likes Rapid Pace Here. I think I could live in New York City without much changing the routine of life as I now live it in London. I rode in a subway the first time I was in New York, and it did not seem-to me there was much moré rush than in the Lon- don underground. In general, life is speedier in the United States than it is in England, but I think I should like the rapid pace. I feel I could be con- tented moving with it. One's first impression of America, when one enters through the port of New York, inevitably must be connected with the skyline. I have been very lucky in New York Harbor. I have seen the battlemented outline of the city in the very soft sunlight and in deep blue moonlight. I can remember how it caught me the first time I saw it, with a pink hue on all the buildings and a juietness in the air that was unexpected. ‘This last time when we came into the harbor a mist had gathered over the skyline, but by the time the little Macom came close to the pier the mist lifted, ahd it was as beautiful as ever. New York City appears to me as though it had been cut out of a great rock. Broad- way seems to me like a narrow cleft made by splitting blocks asunder rather than a street made by building blocks on either side. Convinced of Nation’s Sincerity. My thoughts as I landed were, of course, of the reception I had been told was planned for my father. Were Americans going to be interested in peace with the intensity that \English people showed? How would Americans show their interest? ‘The New York welcome convinced me of the Nation’s sincerity. In the main its pattern was what I had been told to expect, but the ticker tape surprised me. I had pictured more confusion and untidiness, less beauty and trembling light and shade in swirling, twisting tangles of ticker tape and confetti caught up and tossed by an eddying wi ind. I noticed that an American crowd expresses its feelings with hand-clap- ping, whereas an English crowd cheers. I overheard several remarks of on- lookers in the cities we visited. One of the most amusing things I heard was in the Union Station, Washington. An excited young woman cried almost into my ear, “Oh, is that little girl 1t?" In Buffalo, while waiting on a rail- One of the first the adage: veying the idea that terest for them.

People seemed to realize that I, as well as my father, had my heart in the mission. Lauds American Press. ‘Then there were the interviews, some almost every day of the trip. I was surprised by the kindness and sym- pathy of the newspaper representatives who came to see me. I think the repu- tation of the American press for more than average press impertinence is wrong. One of the most noticeable differences between the appearance of Great Brit- ain and the United States is that in Great, Britain gardens and small fields usually are bounded by thick, green hedges, which I missed in America. So the English countryside has a more compact appearance than the Ameri- can. The United States has real need, as has England, of its movement to beautify the roadsides. The great num- ber of signboards along the roads ap- palled me. We have them, too, but not in such large numbers. As filling sta- tions and refreshment stands are neces- sary, they must be designed in such a way 'as not to spoil their purpose or the scenery. Incidentally, while we are touching on wayside stands, let me here confess with proper humility that I never have seen & hot dog. I have passed hundreds of huts labeled “Hot Dogs, Coffee,” and though I have never stopped to satisfy my curiosity (having no hunger to sat- isfy), even before I was told they were frankfurter sausages the descriptive name raised in my imagination a smell and a taste very similar to those of frankfurter sausages.

I am inclined to think there was & little more entertaining in Washington than in London, but social life in these two English-speaking countries does not seem to me very dissimilar. Indeed, al- though Americans have a President and Britishers have a King, there seems to be much of the same reverence in the attitude of the people toward the head of their government. My brief stopover in Philadelphia was one of the keenest pleasures of the trip. Last time when I was there I went through the anxiety of having my father seriously ill in a hospital for three weeks. When you go through trouble with people you feel close to them. So on passing through this time I felt especially at home in Philadelphia, where people once were kind to me. But, then, generous kindness is a truly American characteristic. ‘To me the most important distinction | between American and British women is the practice many American married women have of working outside their homes. Even in Canada more women seem to content themselves with house- hold tasks. In the United States the viewpoint seems to be, “I'll go out and earn some money if my husband and I cannot afford to employ a cook without my adding to our income with my earn- ings.” In Great Britain the girl whose husband is only moderately well off would say, “I shall go and have a few cooking lessons, so that we need not employ a cook.” Finds American Women Charming. Everywhere I went I was asked to comment on American women. Beyond this, all I san say they are charming, graceful and more smartly dressed than English girls. I wonder if the mothers of these two nations have an equal hold over their children? In England, even when mothers stay at home, we have “Nan- nies,” or family nurses, to care for our children. Personally, I could not stand having nny" to look after my chil- | | BETTER, less burdensome Thanksgiv- dren. I should be jealous. I should not nt any one to know my children bet- o, ik 1 yhow, ink it is good for chil- dren to be brought up with their par- ents as their guides, and with their own brothers and sisters as compan- ions. Americans have smaller families than we do. Being one of a family of five and having found so much happi- ness in it, I think that is a good size for a family. Americans do not seem to go in much for boarding schools. That, I think, is very good. So often children sent to boarding schools have an in- stitutional upbringing rather than an intimate home upbringing. I am not against the movement for nursery schools, which is strong in both coun- tries. They are invaluable in poor neighborhoods where bad housing is an insoluble problem, and in better neighborhoods, too, where mothers are professional workers. But the danger is that they be regarded as a substitute for healthy homes in which mothers can bring up their children, and which are still very much needed on both sides of the Atlantic. Believes in Outside Interests. Lest I be misunderstood, I must add immediately that I thoroughly approve of women having some interest outside their homes. I do not_believe it need be a paying position. It may be poli- ties. It may be study. It may be so- clal service. Some women are most valuable members of soclety just as wives and mothers, provided they do not allow the walls of their homes to screen the rest of the world from their eyes. But these are the new economic and social problems which are being at- tacked vigorously and competently in the United States. I shall always watch closely what happens to them, and having visited America and made friends with those who are working them out, I shail follow them with more interest and understanding than before crossing the Atlantic, (Copyrisht, 1929.) Will Rogers Says: ‘BEVERLY HILLS, Calif., October 30.—What's the matter with this for a laugh.” When the stock market goes down, Mr. Morgan, Lamont, Charley Mitchell and Mr. George Baker hold a meeting and let every- body see 'em in this huddle; then the market perks up. I was just thinking what a great idea it would be if we could just get these boys to room together for six months. There is no telling to what heights the market might go. Just think what a calamity if these forgot where they were to meet some day to in- spire confidence.

M & N ‘Goes to Hospital to Learn Beauty Aid | ‘ Doctor laughed when she | asked what cleared skin so quickly This is the story of a little mother whose doctor helped her to make a great discovery. “The first time I heard of it” writes Mrs. E. Whitney of 35 Parker Street, Bangor, Maine, “was when I was at the Eastern Maine General Hospital. Before I went there I was very nervous and run down and after my baby daughter was born the doctor began giving me some- thing. In about ten days I felt like a new person, and began thinking about going home. Before then, I didn’t care whether I lived or died, 1 was so miserable. My skin was in very bad condition and I could not understand what made it clear up so quickly, as I did not know what the nurse was giving me. “Before I left I asked the House Doctor what kind of medicine it was that cleared up my skin and made me feel so much better. He said ‘My dear girl, didn’t you ever hear of Nujol?’ I said ‘Well, doctor, I've never been to a hospital before.’ He said ‘Hospitals aren’t the only place you can get Nujol. You can buy it most anywhere.’ “I have been using Nujol ever since, and I think it is wonderful. You may publish this letter.”. That’s the great thing about Nujol. Not a medicine, contains no Doctor saves her health and her beauty too! forms no habit—and if you are like most other people its simple nat- ural way of bodily lubrication will do wonders for you, too. You see, all of us have an excess of body poisons that make our skins sallow, that make us blue, low in the mind, only able to work at half or quarter our real ability, When Nujol absorbs these poisons and carries them off easily, normally, naturally, we just feel like a million dollars, Your doctor will give you the same advice as this wise physician gave Mrs. Whitney.
