Frigidaire Breaks Shipment Records Dayton, Ohio.—With ita mammonth plants operating overtime, many de partments working at n4ght, some on triple shifts and production of several models more than doubled, Frigidaire Corporation is making herculean ef forts to meet an unprecedented de mand for electric refrigerators.

March orders and shipments were ahead of forecasts and as a conse quence April shipments will be the greatest in our history. “People called at Frigidaire display and sales rooms last month in steadily increasing numbers to inspect new qualntances? It is as hollow as a de flated balloon.—Newcastle Times. Historians at Fault in Depicting Lenclos Two stubborn mistakes are often made concerning a famous French lady, Ninon de Lenclos: First, that she was a wanton by nature, second, that she made of love an actual busi ness. Both errors are cruel, both false to the fame this remarkable and glam orous lady won from her admirers, the many gallant, wise, great men who loved her In her youth, adored her to models. The percetage of floor sales! was the highest we have yet ex-1 perienced. General warm weather prevailing this spring has had some thing to do with the unusually early demand. But the introduction of the new Frigidaire cold control, through which the user can obtain any neces sary temperature for dessert making has, we believe, contributed even more to present phenomenal conditions. “More than 25,000 of these cold con trol devices have been ordered To understand the celebrated Len clos you must understand her times. Truly to know her you must know her lovers. Her century she personified, fairly glorified. Her lovers she In spired aud enriched.

Although production has been increased twice in the past four weeks the factories are thousands of orders behind on thi* particular model and the demand is increasing steadily, according to Mr. Biechler. “The average user will put more things fn an electric refrigerator than she will in an ice box,” he said. “For this reason we have felt that a cabinet with a storage compartment of five cubic feet was the smallest we should build for general use. But there has been a long and insistent demand for a smaller household model, which we have been forced to supply witM four cubic foot cabinet. This is a beauti ful unit, equipped with the cold con trol, self-sealing ice trays, and other exclusive features which have helped to make Frigidaire the choice of the majority.

Faith of CkiMkood Who, If he is honest towards him self, could say that the religion of his manhood was the same as that of hit childhood, or the religion of bis old age the same as the religion of his manhood? It is easy to deceive our selves and to say that the most perfect faith Is a childlike faith. Nothing can be truer, and the older we grow the more we lesrn to understand the wisdom of a childlike faith. But be fore we can learn that, we have first to learn another lesson, namely, to put away childish things.

Necstsary Imports The question of the dependability of the United States upon the re sources of other countries is a debat able one. Some authorities claim that the United States could support Itself for an almost unlimited time; others that the manufactures of the country would be seriously Imperiled In the case of a complete blockade. The United States obtains from abroad manufacturing material and tropical foodstuffs. Practically all the coffee, tea and cocoa come from foreign coun tries and about one-half the sugar, ic [ Important materials on which the it ^Vfmed States relies In manufactures are wool, silk fibers, rubber, hides, wood pulp, tin, gums and nitrates.

Success Js generally due to holding on, and failure to let ting go. You decide to learn a lan guage, study music, take a course of reading, train yourself physically. Will it be a success or failure? It depends upon how much pluck and persever ance that word “decide” contains. The decision that nothing can overrule, the grip that nothing can detach, will bring success. - Remember the Chinese proverb, “WlthTlme and patience, the mulberry leaf becomes satin.”—Ex change. ** The Opportunist After the motor accident the unfor tunate victim was carried into a house nearby.
