ENDS FOR YEAR; SCIENTIST MAKES EXPERIMENTS IN AP Feature Service Minneapolis A refrigerator. to most of us, Is a thing to tuck away In a corner of the kitchen. But Professor Frank B. Rowley of the University of Minnesota has reversed the procedure. For he has put not only a kitchen, but a full-sized house. inside a huge refrigerator in pne of the university's laboratories. The house is 22 feet square, save for a niche in one corner, but there's plenty of room to spare in this 30 foot square and 28 foot high "cooler". The purpose of the venture Is to work out some insulation problems raised largely by air conditioning.

The best solution discovered to date, he said, is to prevent It from getting into tho wall in the first place, by properly-placed vapor barriers certain papers or paints although ventilation of the wall is an aid.

Roosevell, because formerly ac cepted standards of procedure for wives of United States Pres idents are dead as the dodo.) Twill be Interesting to watch developments! Mrs. Roosevelt towers above all of us, which probably made Mrs. Willkie appear positively diminutive to us. Mrs. Willkie has pretty hair (the gray in it makes it appear ash blond or platinum) and she wears it beau tifully coiffured and topped by smart hats. She thinks that good looks achieved by careful grooming are at least ONE of the important things for women; while Mrs. Roosevelt merely submits to beauty shop and dress routine with her mind ! completely occupied with ques tions of social welfare, interna tional affairs, politics, speaking and writing, which she feels are exclusively important. Mrs. Willkie seems valiantly determined to merge her life, interests and personality with that of her brilliant husband, while Mrs. Roosevelt has for many years driven ahead on her own career and activities, with the President's political career merely one of her more vital in terests. Both are very frank and friendly and possess personal charm plus. Both know all the answers. Newswomcn are inter ested in, and enjoy meeting and writing about both. WOMEN'S Nat l Farm & Gar Hon Ace- -----Y-a--i Oregon branch is headed by Mrs. Chas. L. McXary). espec ially Mrs. K. Ethel Lathrop, who was Jackson county dele gate to the London meeting of the Associated Country Women of the World, will be interested in an account of the recent visit here of the association president, Mrs. Alfred Watt. Mrs. Watt left her beautiful English country home several months ago and has been tour ing the countries represented in this world organization of rural women. She kept only slightly ahead of the conquering hoards right on her heels country af ter country went under. She in tends to live in her Canadian home, for the duration, and has been doing yeoman service for the Canadian Agricultural Com mission by recruiting rural wo men for the battle of food pres crvation and production. While in Washington she consulted with Secretary Wallace. At the London meeting one year ago. Mrs. Watt urged the Association to set up Interna tional Headquarters in the U. S., instead of in threatened Eng land. Her suggestion was voted down the opposition led by the U. S. delegation (according to Mrs. Watt), presumably because many delegates were employees of our government agriculture and extension bureaus and feared possible complications be cause of our neutrality laws. Now. Mrs. Watt reports, she is being besieged with lamenta tions from rural women every where, including Nazi Germany, because there is no neutral, cen tral place for contact with each other. However, Cornell Uni versity has offered Mrs. Watt a "personal" office, equipment and a secretary, so she will do what she can in that way. I had the pleasure of taking Mrs. Watt to see one of the lovely suburban estates here. With true British determination not to display emotion, she quietly described some of the lovely spots in her English gar den (which, no doubt. Mrs. La throp has seen) and remarked wistfully "should I never see it again and should it escape bombing, I hope someone will care for my trees, shrubs and flowers."
