20 POUNDS
OF SHEER
DELIGHT
Yvonne seems to know
that she’s heavyweight
champion of the Dionne
Quintuplets, and takes
particular pride when the
seales register her 20
odd pounds. In the pic
ture below she seems to
be verifying the adjust;
ment of the scale, while
at right she proudly tries
out her swimming strokes
on dry land.
THIS GAME
.IS SPORTS
FOR TWO !'
For a game that’s a Joy, j j
to both young and old,j ■
nothing can beat “Mus-| j
tache." In the picture
above, It’s Yvonne’s j
move, and she scores a j
direct “touche" on Dr. |
Dafoe's gray “tooth- j
brush." And then both I
lean back and laugh long \
and loud, the best possl* I
ble conclusion for any ,
game. J
Air Conditioning
System Developing
Economical Equipment Available Shortly for All
Homes, Announces Edward J. Daly, Jr.
Rapid advance In the science o£
air conditioning and the develop
ment of new, better and more eco
nomical equipment insures its
adoption in even the smallest
homes in the very near future, ac
cording to K. J. Daly, Jr„ of M. J.
Daly & Sons, Inc,, rf41 -f> 7f> Rank
street, exclusive dealer in General
Electric air conditioning equip
ment. One of the year’s outstand
ing developments in the Industry.
Mr. E. J. Daly, Jr., said, has been
the perfection by the General Elec
tric Company of a new direct fired
winter air conditioning unit espe
cially designed for small homes and
priced to place the combination of
economical oil heating and winter
air conditioning within the reach
of the email home owner.'
"By making its benefits for com
fort and health available to a fur
greater number of home owners'',
he said, "this new development is
expected to effect a great Increase
in the already firm trend to resi
dential air conditioning. The new
conditioner was especially designed
by General Electric's air condition
ing engineers for the home of about
six rooms. By combining In this
compact unit the features which
have previously been used ex
clusively in the General Electric oil
furnace, together with all equip
ment necessary for winter air con
ditioning, drastic economies arc ef
fected in both initial and operating
cost. It has for some time been
widely prophesied that winter air
conditioning would eventually be
embodied in all new home con
struction, and this development is
sure to hasten that time, especially
in view of the large amount of
email home construction now plan
ned or actually in progress".
Effective Way
In the case of larger houses, Mr.
Daly pointed out, the established
method of Installing a separate fur
nace and air conditioner, with heat
ing colls in the conditioner connec
ted to the furnace, is the most ef
fective, because of the greater
amount of air to be conditioned
and circulated.
The new well established princi
ple of Impact-expansion atomiza
tion announced three years ago
whan General Electric Introduced
ita oil furnace, and until now fea
tured exclusively In that furnace,
Is Incorporated In the new condi
tioner. A veritable battle Is staged
between streams of air and oil, to
break the oil Into a complete mist,
thus effecting complete combustion
of the lower grade fuel oils, which
have the greatest heat content.
Also the flame burns downward
and the flue is at the bottom, pro
1 Tiding most effective use of heat
and eliminating all possibility of
wasted heat. The new unit Is the
only air conditioner to embody
tbeae heating principles.
Filtration
It also contains filters, to clean
the alHt a humidifier, to supply the
proper amount of moisture; a blow
er, to Induce proper circulation;
and all other equipment necessary
pugpljr the entire bouse with sir,
of the proper tempera!ore, humidi
ty, cleanliness and circulation for
both conffort and health. The sup
ply of a ir is drawn into I he condi
tioner by the blower, cleaned by
filters, heated by direct contact
with the furnace, humidified, and
distributed to the various rooms of
the house by a duct system.
It is entirely housed within an
attractive steel Jacket of two-tone
Kray, with black and chromium
trim and occupies but 2 ft. It Inch,
by D ft. 7 inch, of floor space,
standing 5 ft. 6 inch. high. Being
both compact and attractive, it
gives the home owner the benefit
of added basement space, wh'ich
can be converted into a game room
or lounge. The conditioner is very
quiet, clean and free from vibration
and is automatically regulated by
electrically operated controls. A
heating coil for the domestic hot
water supply and a cooling unit for
summer air conditioning will be
available for use with it.
"Because the public has respond
ed so quickly to ainr conditioning'',
Mr. Duly said, "the General Klec
trlc Company has been active in de
veloping new equipment to fill
every possible need. Another new
unit recently added to our tine Is
extremely significant as the first
self-contained room cooling unit
which operates on an ordinary 11U
volt A. C. circuit. It requires neith
er special power lines nor wuter
supply and drain connections and
may be Installed and operated
merely by a simple adjustment of
Its ducts to a window and by plug
ging Into the nearest electric light
outlet. It Is intended for such one
room applications as offices or
board rooms, hotel guest rooms,
and living rooms or bedrooms of
homes, and was designed to fill the
demand for a unit which would
cool, dehumldlfy, clean and circu
late the air of one room without
elaborate and expensive Installation
work or special power provisions.
It supplies an amount of refriger
ation equivalent to the use of near
ly 1000 pounds of Ice in 24 hours".

You may have wondered
what has become of the Har
monica Band which enter
tained members of the Holy
Name society at a meeting
about two months ago. There
is only one reason. “Tony”
Talmont, the director, is ill.
Tony has been in bed for
about a month and during
'this time his harmonica band
has remained idle. Tony is a
member of the Holy Name so
ciety and is the scoutmaster of
the patrol of St. Joseph's par
ish. We hope that in a short
.time “Tony” .will be walking
around once more, as we feel
that with him at the baton
the band will bo going places.
‘PANTS BURGLAR’
HELD FOR TRIAL
Probable Cause Found in
Case of Reilly Modley;
Bound Over
Arrested laBt week when John
Fazo of North Elm street, decided
to do his own detective work,
Reilly Modley, or Wiley Modley, 65,
a negro, of 217 Abbott avenue, was
bound over to superior court today
on charges of breaking and enter
ing and assault. Unable to post
bonds of 2500, Modley went to jail
to await his arraignment In eu
perlor court later In the month.
A pair of pants figured largely
In the series of Incidents which
brought about Modley’s arrest and
his arraignment before Judge John
F. McGrath today.
Last month, Hyson Fazo, cousin
of John Fazo, lost a wallet from
his pants at the room which he
and John shared on North Elm
street. Hassan Mugaren, who lives
In the same building lost a pair of
pants.
A few days later, John Fazo
heard an Intruder In the building,
opened a door and was attacked
by a tall negro. After a battle, the
negro fled to safety, but John
meanwhile had ripped off the at
tacker's shirt and had seen that the
negro had a badly scared chest.
Police found no trace of the In
truder but last week, John saw a
negro on North Elm street and
noted a resemblance. He called
police headquarters, and Lieut. De
tective Matthew Balanda and De
tective William Foley traced the
negro to his home on Abbott ave
nue. They arrested him, and at
headquarters, found that Modley’s
chest was badly scarred. Besides,
1 at Modley’s home they found the
. missing pants.
c Without even watting to hoar
2 the Btato's entire case, Judge Mc
i, Grath found probable cause against
I, Modley and fcound feUtt ova*:.

67 QUALIFIED AS
DANCE TEACHERS
Irish-Americans Plan Big
Revival of Public Inter
est in Gaelic Numbers
Gaelic dancing: ha* been winning
wide popularity In thl* city since
the opening of classes for Instruc
tion In this particular art several
weeks ago by a committee repre
senting the membership of the
Irlsh-AmcHcan Social club. The
classes which are conducted every
Tuesday night by Peter Crowley at
Eagles’ hall have been well at
tended. Last night identification
cards were given to 67 pupils quali
fying them to'act as Instructors for
future members. This number has
become qiflte proficient in master
ing many of the steps that seemed
difficult only a short time ago.
Robert 'Coughlin, sponsor of
the movement stated that It is the
Intention of the Irish-Americans
to learn their dances in order that
such socials held here will reach
their expectations. "So many peo
ple will have knowledge of the
dancing," said Mr. Coughlin, "that
we will probably be obliged to hire
larger halls for the affairs."
Others praise the movement
stating that there are going to be
many new acquaintances made
within the next few months. Clif
ford and O'Sullivan’s orchestra has
been providing the accompaniment
for the classes and will be present
at the next session of the group on
next Tuesday night. It is believed
that there will be a great Increase
In the membership at this time
due to the number of Instructors
now available.
