Modern Black Market Got Start During Last War Though the black market as America knows it today originated in Germany during World War I, in many countries it has flourished as a wartime disease for centuries. In the Napoleonic wars it was a highly developed form of larceny, it is pointed out. When Napoleon sought to bar British goods from the European continent, his own wife, Josephine, was one of the best cus tomers for English textiles, avail able on the black market. Scotland has known black rents in its day. The black market got its name from a development in Germany in 1917 which, with variations, is being repeated in the United States in 1943. German farmers, dissatisfied with price ceilings set over their livestock, took to slaughtering their animals on moonless nights, and sell ing the meat through illegal chan nels. Hence the terms black slaugh tering, and black market. “The black market in meat soon spread to butter, when supplies im ported from Holland were sold far above the authorized price ceiling. As a result, all butter became known as ’Dutch butter’ and later as ‘black butter.’ In time, black markets ran riot in so many commodities that outraged German workers demand ed raises in pay to match the prices being asked, and freely paid, for stolen food.” Protect Sheet« From Springs With Cover To protect sheets from snagging and tearing a mattress cover should be placed over the bed springs. Remember too that a bit of adhe sive tape carefully bound over a rough place on the spring will also help to avoid a tear. Wash rag or chenille rugs just as you wash blankets; let them drip dry. When hanging, fold over line and fasten two clothespins down each hanging side, pinning double thicknesses. Shake or brush when nearly dry to fluff up. Wash curtains as you would silks. Put curtains of fine material such as lace and scrim in a net bag to wash. Starch keeps them fresh, crisp, and clean longer. Use a large kettle so that all curtains for one room can be starched evenly and at once. Do not hang curtains on the line to dry but roll up in a sheet. Iron when damp dry. In hanging sheets out to dry, put large and small hems together; swing large hem over the line, with small hem on the outside. Place clothespins at one-foot intervals. Straighten selvages. When remov ing, fold sheet crosswise again, and it is ready for ironing. Friendly Indian The Pilgrims had landed on Ply mouth Rock on December 21, 1620, and their first few months in their new home had brought hardship and suffering. Many of the new settlers died, almost all of the rest were ill, and their supplies ran dangerously low, writes W. Henry Boiler in "Pennsylvania Farmer." Some of the Indians who had formerly lived in the neighborhood of Plymouth had died in a horrible epidemic which swept through the region before the Pilgrims arrived, and those who re mained were inclined to be hostile. But one Indian, named Samoset, welcomed them with “Hello, Eng lishmen." Thia Indian was not a na tive of Massachusetts, but came from a region 200 miles to the north in what is now Maine. Samoset had learned his English words of greet ing from the crew of an English Ash ing boat which had visited the coast of Maine some years before. He had been living in the Plymouth neighborhood for almost a year and knew all of the local chieftains. Likes U. S. Pumbing Winston Churchill, more than any other British statesman, is an en thusiastic admirer of American plumbing and heating equipment. In 1932, while his country house at Chartwell was being remodeled Mr. Churchill was in Cincinnati, and the manager of a new hotel was showing him the presidential suite. When they reached the master bathroom, Mr. Churchill, quite car ried away by the effect of the col ored fixtures, darted to the nearest telephone, called his architect in London, and asked that all work on the bathrooms in his country house be suspended until he could get there to explain what he had seen in Cin cinnati. No. 10 Downing street, resi- dence of tke prim« minister, is heat ed by hot water which is circulated through the radiators and piping by a pump on the same principle a* the best American-style hot water heat ing plants. „ BOARDMAN NEWS By Margaret Thorpe Lyle Robertson and Mr. Eller both went to Portland last Wednesday where thev took their physical for the army.
