ISSUE 41 1956 Dot Thus the candles are made by the hand-dipping process with the aid of Mr. Ross' little device which multiplies the hourly production 'from one to 16. Each candle is dipped and dripped 50 times before it is completed. The Posses sell other candles as well as their own beeswax ones. TheSe of, wax • have the special virtue of standing with- out melting, through any kind of summer heat. Mr. and Mrs. Ross also sell extracted wildflower honey and . .honey spread, as well 'as comb honey, wtih various accessories for both honey and candles '- attractive honey pots, candle holders, snuffers, and, so forth. Brass is a perfect holder for the natural beeswax candle, says Mrs. Ross, - because of the beautiful blending of the na- tural colors. Mr. Ross and his son set up a solar extractor at their •home in Lawrence to take the honey from the comb and melt the wax. In the melting process any dirt in 'the wax drops, to the bottom, leaving the clear wax above. The capping wax with which the bees cap each cell of their comb is especially desir- able arid makes a candle of a richer nd unusual shade. The wax is, of course, merelted as it is needed for the candlemaking. (By Jessie Ash Arndt in the Christian Science Monitor.) Tools Of The Trade • Crippled by an incurable dis- ease a clever crook, devised, a series of brilliant crimes and fashioned the keys which made them possible. Sentenced to three years' imprisonment re- cently he heard his fate im- passively and then bequeathed his collection of instruments to Scotland Yard's Black Museum. Th i s museum contains a unique and weird collection of exhibits linked with ' violent crimes of the past. The folding ladder used by Charles Peace for his burglaries and the concertina case he hid it in; knives. and daggers used in various crimes; false arms and legs used in disguises; the hat and gloves belonging to Crippen and the boy's clothes worn by Ethel Le Neve when she fled with him to Canada- they are all there. Amorig "tools of the trade" are assorted safebreakers' in- struments, jemmies and keys. Other implements include ham- mers and saws and the mallet which Rouse used on an un- known man whose remains were found in a burned-out car. But Scotland Yard is not the Candles And Honey Go Together Usually a' busineis goes from father-or.rnother to son. In. the case of John and Beatrice Ross, Proprietors •of the Ross Candle House on Bearskin Neck, in Massachusetts, the parents are following a path.blazed by their son - a path lined with' bee- hives, and floviing not with Milk and' honey, but with bees- wax arid honey. When the Rosses' son, Robert, was about 12 he went from their home in„,Lawrence, Mass., to North• Andover on frequent visits to an uncle' and there be- came interested in bees. He had hiVes in the 'orchard at hia uncle's home where the bees, had an abundance of fruit' blos- soms from which to make their honey. Later, he started' hives at home in Lawrence and at' the home of another uncle in Derry, N.H., where he spent some' of his summers. ,'He extracted the honey and his mother sought ways to 'Use the fragrant beestvax. She ex- perimented with candlemaking and, one at a time, made 32 for -disply at the Topsfield (Mass,) Fair. She worked till 3 o'clock in the morning to finish the lot' before entering them ' in. the fair: Her reward was first prize. The trick in making- hand- dipped candles is to get them smooth and perfectly shaped without "wrinkles" in them, Mrs. Ross explained. At one time Robert had 300 hives in various places, includ- ing a summer camp where the family spent vacations, Bees- wax accumulated and Mrs. Ross continued her candlemaking. She worked out a way of mak- ing two at a time, then three, and finally four. She exhibited at the Topsfield Fair gaain and again and began selling candles there and gathering in blue ribbons like a honey crop each season. Then Mr. Ross devised for her a "machine" at which she can make 16 candles in an hour. "See Beeswax Candles Being Made Here" reads a sign in the window of the Ross Candle Shop which Mr: and Mrs. Ross are now operating far the sec- ond summer. On Saturdays when the largest number of visitors stroll along Bearskin Neck, lingering over the dis- plays in the quaint little shops that hug either side of the lane, the Candle House will be crowded with eager watchers. Mrs. Ross works over an elec- trically heated double boiler which Mr. Ross rigged up for her. Above it on a metal rod which extends up from it, there are supporting metal crossbars. On each end of these there is a strip of wood to which far candlewicks of equal length are tied, each with a small weight at the bottom. The crossbars turn on the center rod. As one Set of strings comes tip from the liquid wax, drips, and dries, the bars are turned so the next four can go down. By the time the rods revolve so the' first set of strings get an- other birth, the wart on these• has dried sufficiently for the next dippping. Automation Began. Centuries Ago. MERRY MENAGERIE There's nothing new! Wonder of the twentieth century, auto, oration, first appeared, in. Eritain nearly 200 years ago, when a man named Arkwright brought auto- anation into the cotton industry arid proved it would work for the good of everyone. Arkwright, who started life as a barber, was run out of Preston by the guilds for cutting his, price. For thirty years he lived On the edge of starvation, cutting hair, making wigs and doing odd jobs. His wife died of malnutri- tion and his, children never wore boots. His second wife had a bank balance, but they squandered it between them. And by the time he was middle-aged he had only one suit' and that was so shabby that he never went out until it was dark. , He developed an iddea_ford,'a spinning jenny - a machine that would spin carded cotton and took it to a Preston philanthrop- ist named Smalley. Smalley thought it was worth develop- ing and paid Arkwright a week- ly wage while he worked on the model. In 1769 it was put on the mar- ket. Five years later ArkOright was wealthy but the most •detest- ed man in Lancashire. Then he invented a machine, that handled raw thread at one end and gave out woven thread at the other. This made him so famous and so powerful that he was able..to•persuade Parliament to remove the excessive tax on Cotton. • The workers, however, could see nothing but poverty ahead of them. .His machines put down manpower by over one half They threatened his life. So Arkwright fearlessly met them and promised' that, if -Anly they would be pa- tient, there would be work for all of thein, far more thari they could cope with. They' didn't believe him. •They threw stones at him, broke the windows of his home and even tried to smash his machines. Arkwright was right and the workers were wrong. The tax relief made cotton goods cheaper, the new machines turned it out faster than ever before. Order's rolled in from all parts of the world - orders so. huge that, without his machines, the indus- try could not have coped with them. Factories doubled and trebled their staffs, and Lanca- shire rode on the crest of the wave. Ten years after inventing his spinning jenny Arkwright own- to 4 1.1 ''7, • "Tick-tock tick-tock --" CLASSIFIED ADVERTISING OPPORTUNITIES FOR "'MEN AND WOMEN ,,Vpii.,.,A0:A1A4.1REDARDIENSGSER4.

There's an easy way and a messy way of painting a chair. You've probably been caught by the messy way - painting the outside of the legs and rungs first, then having to reach through to paint the• •in- side parts. The easy way is this: Turn the chair upside down on a table and paint the• under- neath parts first. Put it back on its feet, theii finish the• legs. Next do the back. When you leave the top of the, seat until the last, you can steady the chair while dabbing into diffi- cult 'corners.

Insist on the anti-freeze that takes over where others stop Painting Under Difficulties By flying for hours in a heli- copter artist Claude Muneaster drew a series of views which won great praise from the crit- ics whes they were on exhibi- tion at the galleries of the Roy- al Water-Colour Society in London recently. His "helicopter-eye" views are a novel approach to land scape painting which it is be- lieved other artists will copy. Such a method of "getting the picture" was undreamt of by earlier painters, but they, too, sometimes achieved great mas- terpieces by unusual means. When the artist Turner wish- ed to paint a snowstorm at sea, he lashed himself to a mainmasts_ and, • despite the numbing cold;"'' spent four hours executing' rough sketches which resulted: in an authentic, and graphic pic- ture. Another artist, Caledon Cam- eron, made• drawings for his picture, "Niagara in Winter," suspended by a rope' over the boiling waters beneath the falls. To paint pictures, which were later acclaimed when displayed in London, Zahr. Pritchard went. to Tahiti, hired a barge and a diver's costume and descended thirty feet to a coral reef. He, found a convenient ledge ' of coral on which to stand his easel and then' gave a signal to the men on, the diving barge to lower his canvas, palette and brushes. The canvas had pre- viously been coated with lin- seed oil to which the thick oil paints adhered. As Pritchard sat in his under-. water "studio," strange fish of- ten swam close to the crude transparent covering over his face, encircling his neck to in- vestigate ,the strange creature that had come among them.. Nearly all his pictures include gaudy-hued, queer-shaped fish which he saw at close quarters during his series of strange un- dersea visits. Scores of sketches were made by artist A. D. McCormick while he was roped to guides and perched on narrow ledges ' with sheer drops of many thousands of yards at his feet in the Himalayas. The Russian artist, Borisoff, used to disap- pear for months among the desolate wastes of the Arctic solitudes. "I have painted when the thermometer registered sixty degrees of frdst," he said, "and when my paint brushes split with the cold and my oil col- ours became congealed."
