A MODERN home bnllt In the
Arctic defied the death dealing
cold of the Polar Regions and
proved an Invaluable aid to Lieu
tenant Commander Richard E. Byrd
in Ithwuccessfal flight to the North
Pole, which he circled three times In'
t record breaking flight of 1500 miles
tn 15 hours and 80 minutes at an
veTAge speed of 99.75 miles an hour.
It was at the Spitsbergen base.
King's 'Bay, where this first modern
bouse was constructed amid the snow
and Ice of the Arctic immediately upon
the arrival of Lieutenant Byrd and
his companions, as a permanent home
and observation station for tbe ex
plorers. The house, which rose up on
the horizon of the frigid north in marked contrast to
the igloo of the Eskimo, was equipped with a com
plete radio outfit that those who remained at the
base while lieutenant Byrd .made his thrilling dash
to the pole in his speeding Fokker might keep
in touch with their chief and the outside world,
which they kept informed as to the progress and suc
cess of the flight.
It was to this same home that he returned aft
er bis hazardous trip and from which some of the
first messages were sent to the waiting public, tell
ing them through the lanes of the air that Byrd had
circled the pole ' three tiroes and had returned to
his Spltzbergen home In safety, adding one of the
most memorable pages to the history of Arctic ex
ploration. Sngmr Can Fights Polar Cold.
When lieutenant Byrd left the Brooklyn Navy
Yard on the ship Chantler be declared he had the
best and most scientifically equipped expedition that
ever had started for the North Pole. Special plans
were made for the erection of his Arctic home.
Boards of celotex Insulating lumber made from ba
gasse (sugar cane fiber after all sugar Juices have been
extracted) were carried-along with the latest Inven
tions to aid in polar exploration. This building ma
terial Is very light and Is filled with millions of air
cells, which give It great Insulation value and re
sistance to changes tn temperature, especially the
severe cold. One odd circumstance In connection
with the use of this material Is that the sugar cane
of the south was utilized to fight the cold of the
sorth. '
Celotex was selected Instead of lumber because
tests made by the United States Bureau of
Standards and its uni
versal nse In building
construction all over
the world, had demon
strated that this In
sulating lumber would
keep the quarters of
the explorers warmer
and protect their living
conditions more secure
ly than ordinary build
ing material.
It was only after care
ful Investigation by the
scientific men in the expedition that
celotex was selected. These authorN
ties pointed out that the protection af
forded by its Insulation efficiency was
three times as great as ordinary lum
ber and nearly twelve times as great
as that of brick and other masonry
material. The ship Chantler also was
lined with celotex as an added pre
caution to keen the ship warm while
the explorers used It In the preliminary stages of
the expedition.
In practically every other way this expedition was
more scientifically prepared than anj of its predeces
sors. These included inventions of Commander
Byrd himself. A' simple sun compass conceived by
Byrd and developed by Mr. Bumstead of the Na
tional Geographic Society, superseded the complicated
German device, developed three years ago for Amund
sen. The drift indicator also was Byrd's invention.
The bubble sextant by which the navigator obtains
his bearings while In flight was another one of his
Inventions. Still another scientific development was
a quick method of telling when one is at the North
Pole. This has been worked out by O. W. Littlehales,
the navy's hydrographlc engineer.
Nxt Flight Orr Satk Pole.
TRe expedition, backed by such men as John
I. Rockefeller, Jr., and Theodore Roosevelt, Jr., had
three main objects.
1 To prove that air navigation In tbe Arctic Is
feasible and that freight and passenger travel over
the top of the world Is certain to come.
2 To hunt for new land In the unexplored areas
of the Arctic
3 To conquer the North Fole from the air as 'a
sporting adventure and as a demonstration of what
a plane can do not a geogf aphlcal study, as the
pole was bagged for all time ny Admiral Peary.
Lieutenant Byrd achieved Ihe major part of his
program in his first flight After the successful
flight of Amundsen in his diftgible, during which he
found no trace of new land Lieutenant Byrd de
cided to give up his other flights and make his next
airship expedition an attempt to repeat at the Sout
Pole what he accomplished at the North.
son is that tbe sun dries the clean
ing mixture so quickly that It
dries unevenly. The quick drying
process also causes the cleanser
to become more or less fixed be
fore you can remove it.
CHOOSING THE PROPER FOODS
Do you realize that the largest
part of the income of an individ
ual is spent in the purchase of
food? In fact the home manager
who is the purchasing agent of the
home spends more than 80 per
cent In buying food. If every one
knew this fact food would be chos
en with more discretion. Every
housewife knows all children un
der sixteen should have at least
one quart of milk a day and yet
money which should be spent for

less food. If the child is unable to
to drink this amount plain, there
are a number of ways in which it
may be used, such as cocoa, cus
tards, puddings also use milk free
ly in seasoning vegetables.
In planning the family meals, at
least two vegetables should be
served every day, and three if pos
sible. One of these is the potato
and the other two should be a suc
culent veketable. Plants such as
lettuce, cabbage, spinach and cel
ery whiph add roughage are excel
lent and really put new life into
our bodies. All foods which can be
eaten raw 6hould be served raw, it
not only saves the food value and
time, but none of the food value
is lost during cooking.
A OOLP SUPPER
f
Every real home-maker loves
company, for it enables her to
show off her home, extends a wel
coming hospitality, lets ber guests
see her ability as a hostess and
shows off her exceptional cooking.
But hubby, too, likes to show off
occasionally, and especially if he
is a good golf player, he doesn't
want It kept a secret. If the two
are indebted to friends, and father
wishes to take a couple of men,
not members, out to the club for
a game, mother finds it an equally
enjoyable way, of repaying some
social indebtedness1 to the wives.
If the club boasts of a dining
room and has a reputation for un
usual menus this affords an easy
way of paying , off indebtedness.
If, however, the: club is small and
there is no dining room as yet, one
can successfully entertain tor her
husband's golfing friends at home.
For a .ten o'clock supper, cover
a long table to serve buffet style
.with grass green crepe paper and
sprinkle with ferns. Fold and pin
napkins to stimulate golf bags and
place the silver inside.
Bunkers can be made of Drown
bread sandwiches and with the
coffee and sugar can .be served
from a realistic sandbox made of
cardboard.
Salads and croquettes could be
passed on platters, the latter made
to look like tees with potato balls
on top. The salad can be made
from slender cucumbers cut to Re
semble golf bags leaving strips of
skin on to look like leather trim
mings. Pieces of the parings can
be -made into straps and handles
and: fastened on with melted gela

shape of golf sticks first wrapped

For dessert miniature greens of

filled with fruit sauce. Cakes can

CAXXIXQ STRAWBERRIES
Of all fruits, the strawberry is
one of the most difficult to can
in order to preserve its color and
flavor. It requires a large amount
of sugar to preserve its color, but
this in turn destroys the flavor.
There is no more attractive food
to look at than a dish of Sunshine
Strawberry preserves where an
equal amount of sugar and berries
is used, but many people prefer
the plain canned product where
less sugar is used. The following
method has proved very success
ful is directions are followed close
ly:
First, hull and thoroughly wash
me Derriea. in order to preserve
the color as much as possible can
the berries in their own juice; this
is accomplished by allowing the
berries and sugar to stand for a
short time, forming enough juice
to start the canning. Add one
fourth as much sugar by measure
as fruit. Mix carefully and after
standing for a while, let boil for
tnree minutes. In order that the
berries may have a plump appear
ance cover and let stand for fcev
erai nours or over night; then
drain off the Juice and pour the
berries Into hot sterilized jars.
Heat the syrup to the boiling point
and pour over the berries. Seal
loosely and at once place jars In
a pan of hot water In a slow oven
and cook for one hdur. Remove
from the oven and seal immediate
ly. Be careful that the Jara da ndt
touch during the oven cookinz
Many times daring the cold pack
process of canning berries or even
the open kettle process the berries
rise to the top of the jar leaving
perhaps a half Jar of syrup, but
fruit canned in the oven, when
done you have a jar of fruit and
not syrup.

A HINT IN BAKTXrt
Yeast and baking powder are
the two leavening agents most
often used in the home. Yeast' be
ing a microscopic plant, gas is giv
en off by means of fermentation,
while baking powder works by a
chemical action. The dough in
quick breads is lightened by the
gas given off as soon as a liquid
comes in contact with the dry in
gredients when a quick-acting
powder is used, but with Calumet,
which is a medium, double-acting
baking powder, only a small
amount of gas escapes when the
liquid is added, the remainder giv
en off only when heat is applied.
To bo successful in your baking
and to have the best results when
using baking powder, the house
wife must be accurate in her
measurements and follow only
those directions sent out by the
manufacturer of the product.
