"They‘re just like movie actors," says an article in the Woman‘s Home Companion on radio stars. "They come into the studio and take their bows just as if the ‘mike‘ was a full house. And some even dress the part. Reinald Werrenrath, for example, says that he couldn‘t sing a note after six o‘clock if he didn‘t have on a dress The day of wearisome farm chores | may be doomed by realization that a! small stream of water can be harâ€"| nessed up, to accomplish work ior-}' merly done by the entire rural family. | Citing the case of C.

The regular broadcasts of sermons in New York, Chicago, Cleveland and other large cities of the country are cited as examples of the way the radio "The greatest preachers in the world," the article continues, "send out their voices to communities which might otherwise be unchurched and unpulpited." As an example of what appliances may be operated by such home made power the magazine lists the following among others; a home made electrical house heater; an electral range; a an electrical feed cufter in the cowâ€" shed and in the poultry houses inâ€" cubators, brooders and drinking founâ€" tains all run by electricity. has aided in ;;;Ja:i;ng the doctrine of Christianity. "Right on his own place." says the magazine in referring to Mr. Fricke, "he develops and uses an electrical load of ten kilowatts, day and night in winter, and five kilowatts on an averâ€" age in summer, or a total of 75.640 kilowatt hours a year. The first thing he developed on his place was the power from his small stream; the next an electrical power line from it to the side of his proposed house. .

HARNESSES FARM CREEK _ TO DO ALL THE CHORES) Day of Wearisome Round Farm Is Past for This Ingenious Man TELLS HOW MEN GAINED V AUDEVILLE DOMINANCE Woman‘s overthrow from the vroud positibn she once held as the dominatâ€" ing influence of the variety stage beâ€" gan to be plainly shown in the west~ ern part of the United States in the late fifties. "Variety became a highly mascuâ€" line theatre and attracted an audiâ€" ence mainly of men," says the magaâ€" tine. "One whole company boomed out a highly favored parody of the Ghost Chorus from Sonambula in which the whole company acted out the terror of the haunted night with pantomime and recitation in rich voices." Discussing the rarly days of the California stage in "Troupers of the Gold Coast," a story of the life of Lotta Crabtree in the Woman‘s Home Companion, the writer declares that the dawn of the Civil War in the United States saw the end of women as the dominating factors in theatâ€" rical work, as far as variety was conâ€" cerned. The struggle for gain in the mining districts of California accentuated the male hold on the theatrical audiences, the magazine points out, as many of the trips of the traveling companies were extremely dangerous for women of the stage. On July 1, 1929, Chicago‘s metroâ€" politan area will have a population of 4,594,000, and Chicago alone will have 3,250,000 citizens. ‘That prediction was made recently by the Chicago Association of Comâ€" merce after a careful survey of the city and the district embracing 160 urban centers and six counties. It was estimated that the populaâ€" tion of the metropolitan area on Januâ€" ary 1 of this year was 4,407,000, and that in the year and six months folâ€" lowing the first of the year Chicago will have increased by 100,000.

Attorney General Carlstrom has given an opinâ€" ion to the auditor advising against payment on the ground that the conâ€" tract was entered into illegally. The contract entered into between the state department of purchases and construction with Green & Sons comâ€" pany, provided work on the "cost plus" basis. A suit was filed in Cook county contesting the contract and the state auditor asked for an opinion.
