To what extent the French class has
taken hold of the local fashionable mind
waa Illustrated recently In a little Incident
that, while a bit embarrassing to the lady
concerned was altogether amusing to the
onlookers. One of Professor Nesbitt's en
thusiastic disciples got onto a street car
the other day and as the conductor re
quested her fare, she repeated a number
somewhat mechanically. Not recognizing
her as the bolder of a street car pass, he
repeated his request, whereupon the lady
stsrted In confusion, saying as ahs hur
riedly produced her nickle: "Oh, I forgot;
that Is my French class number."

HERE THERMOMETERS COUNT
Hundreds of Them Banged About the Walls
of One Packing- Plant
TEMPERATURE MEANS MONEY THERE
Manager Howe of Armoir'i Tells of
the Effort Made to Keep Ae
eirate rterord of tho -
Degree of Cold.
"Temperature Is the most Importsnt
thing about a parking plant," said Man
ager Robert Howe of Armour's South Omaha
establishment a few days ago, when the
cold weather had turned the talk to ther
mometers. "We hsve. It I am not mis
taken, 7",0 of those things about the plant
and eight men who do nothing but make
temperature readings."
Practically all the products of the pack
ing industry are perishable and must be
kept at even temperatures. In the case
of some of the things which are kept In
storage, eggs especially, a deviation of a
degree or two In either direction may mean
the ruination of the entire season's out
put. To guard against such an accident
there are thermometers In all ths storage
rooms and men make periodical readings
of these and chalk ths results on a board
In the room of the engineer of the refriger
ating plant and any deviation from ths re
quired temperature can be rectified by in
creasing or decreasing the cold of the re
frigerating pipes. There Is mors than one
thermometer In each storage room, for It Is
requisite to know the degree Of cold at
the top and floor and at each wall. The re
frigerating pipes are so arranged that the
temperature ran be changed at either side
or end of the chamber or at the celling
or floor. In the gg rooms, where the most
care Is requisite, there are cold gauges at
each wall and also In the center of the
room. In these and In the rooms where
are stored spples and other similar pro
duce, the readings are made hourly, but In
the curing rooms, the meat coolers and
where the frozen beef Is stored, ths tem
perature Is taken only once In two hours.
The lowest temperature maintained Is In
the refrigerating rooms, where ars kept ths
frozen poultry and beef cuts. This runs 10
degrees above zero to 15 below. In ths
apple rooms the temperature must go but
little either way from the freezing point
constant temperature Is maintained In
the meat coolers snd curing rooms. The
brine for pickling purposes also has Its
thermometers snd must be kept at a con
stant temperature to 'Insure uniform re-
ultfl. In the cooking departments high
register thermometers are used to. gsuge
the temperature of the water. The air in
the slaughtering and other departments Is
also kept as uniform as possible.
The Armour plant has refrigerating cham
bers aggregating 900,000 square feet of floor
space. These run in height from about
thirteen feet down to seven feet, ths beef
hanging rooms being the highest. The
thermometers used are some of them spe
cially made for the plant and others ars
the ordinary thermometers purchaseabls in
the shops. When they are received they are
all tested and standardised In ths office of
the chemical laboratory. Some of them
have been found to vary 7 or more degrees
from ths standard and were discarded.
There is a constant wearing out of those in
use, principally through rust.

E'ectrlcally heated gloves snd shoes ars
