INTERESTING NOTES Cornell University scientists re- port that magnetism has an ef- fect on living things. Experi- ments showed that a strong mag- netic force would prevent the building of yeast cells. The old superstition of cooking dried beans in rain water, which is soft, is scientifically sound, food specialists say, for beans eooked in hard water tend to soften less readily. Painted floors, unwaxed, may be cleaned by washing them with glue and water; a half-pound of pow- dered glue is enough for a me- dium-sized room. Huskless oats, a discovery that may lead to important develop- ments in the future of agriculture, is the result of 79 years of re- search. Community Church Notes Rev. Malcolm F. Kelley will preach Sunday morning at the Adi- rondack Community church on \The Value of Background.\ A soprano and baritone duet by Mrs. Ralph Hoy and Emerson Smith will be sung as the offertory and Mrs. Edna Hudson Falconer will play a request organ number, Bach's \Jesu Joy of Man's Desir- ing,\ and also \Postlude in B Flat\ by Steam.
