Neither does "glace" mean candied, but rather, ice glazed or frozen. Dishes which appear on menus marked "a la provencale" are not, as is said, "out of the provences," or "country style," but are made with oil or garlic or both. That "au gratin" business got started because so many scalloped or dishes "gratinee" are made with cheese, the grated part was originally crumbs, says a writer in the Washington Post. "Sea Pie" (often mentioned in old stories) is not made of fish at all, but of cooked sliced meat and vegetables. If you order something "Crecy" from a menu, you'll find it's carrot-y--and like it. Grille (from which we get grilled) means "toast-' ed" so call them "marshmallows grille" if it makes you feel hightoned! "Bisque," "which we apply to practically every type of cream soup, correctly means only soup made with shell fish. Or just to confuse you, it may be a rich frozen dessert. Here's a dinner-time piece of show-off: "Demi-tasse" does mean "half cup" all right, but the French from whom we took it never use the word for after-dinner black coffee ;«they say "cafe noir." "A la Normandie" doesn't mean it came from Normandy, but calls to mind the old song about apple blossom time because such a dish sTioiild contain apples (but may also contain shrimps). The modernists are bent on still further charming confusion. "Scallops" are not little fish when they're made with bananas, but delicious litye morsels of banana cruznbed and fried. 0 Why the Borda Gardens in Mexico Are Beautiful ,. The famous Borda gardens in Mexico, are at Cuernavaca, Mexico's most noted holiday resort. Some historians say they were laid out in 1716 by Joseph de la Borde, who came from France and later changed his name to La Borda. Emperor Maximilian madtl Cuernavaca the summer capital of his court and occupied the Borda gardens as the official seat of the government. The gardens were planned to reproduce those of Versailles and French landscape gardeners were brought to Mexico to make them as perfect as possible.1 They abound in tropical plants such as mango trees, poinsettia, bougainvillea. The islands in one of the pools are planted with coffee, banana, and Maicillo trees. Blue morning glories add to the color of the gardens. Tiled seats, fountains, wrought iron gates, pergolas, and arcades are some of the beautiful features.

An automobile radio does not connect to the ground and therefore near a steel bridge is robbed of the signals. A steel building acts in a similar manner, serving as a more or less effective shield: Radio signals are not deterred by the walls, roof, or windows of an ordinary house because this construction does not absorb and transmit tha signals to the ground.
