Expert Declares Real Secret
I .,v
Lie in Tuning.

Vancouver. Frank C Godfrey be-
loon to one 01 the most ancient ana
iraren professions in the world. He
designs,. tunes and Installs. cburcn
ntens.
Godfrey recently visited Vaneou-
rer to supervise the Installation of
eight new bens, presented - to St.
James Anglican church, No one
on the North American continent
had the experience to undertake
thjitiobGAdfrey made his twenty
first transatlantic trip from England
to hang the chimes in the tower of
St. James.
The young bell expert represents
John. Taylor & Company of Lough
jborough, England, one of the few
'firms of bell founders in the world.
The foundry has been making bells
since 1360.
In Family Since 1780.
; The Taylor bell foundry was
established in medieval days by
Johannes de Stafford, but since 1780
.has been conducted by the Taylor
family, and has supplied bells,
j chimes and carillons to all parts of
the world.
J According to Godfrey, there has
:never been any real rivalry for the
(English product. He says that the
jwhole secret lies in tuning. To tune
the notes in each bell of a cnrillnn
'is a long and costly m-ocess and In
jd js the apex of the bell
irs art. ""fcaffiHESBESaatfr-
QaSat9 describes the bell cast-
wig process as 10
nolds are made from a por-
1 of loam, specially made
1 at tne Loughborough works. The
loam must be perfectly dry to pre
iyent an explosion. The boiling mass
of bronze is poured into the mold
from a huge ladle of 20 tons capa
city. Pouring of the molten metals
takes only four minutes, but seven
.tfays are allowed fcrcooling.
vTbe toiling liquid generates nu
mewas gases which are not allowed

"eot through the porous loam core
of the mold into a pipe, emitting w
unpleasant odor. .J.Jwasswtr
Godfrey sayTthat only three bells
have had to be recast during his
time with the firm.
Before the Vancouver Job he in
stalled a 47-beU carillon at Luray,
Va., and last year he installed a
.carillon of 53 bells at the University
of Michigan, Ann Arbor,
j The carillon comprises at least
.two chromatic octaves of 29 beus-and
may be extended to a range of five
-octaves, or even more.
The chime is a limited number of
'bells, which play single-note melo
dies. The minimum range of the
jcbime is eight bells of the diatonic
.scale. They may be increased to a
1 carillon. The bells may be oper
i ted by a hand clavier connected to
the clappers by wires, from an eleo
jtric console or even by player rolls
like a player piano.
Muscles and Menus to Be
Streamlined in Britain
London. The British govern
.ment's national fitness campaign is
going to affect not only muscles but
Much of the physical unfitness of
8te English people is attributed to
nsuitable "and badly cooked food.
The ministry of health and the
board of education ere considering
'hew the better and wide teaching of
'cookery can be linked with the phys
ical culture movement.
It is expected 'steps will be taken
to encourage the provision of more
evening cookery centers for adults
'and the better patronage of those
already In existence.
' Many girls, now go from school
.to work in shops,' offices, or fac
tories. By the time they are mar
ried they have forgotten most that
they learned about cooking and
(dietetics at school. It is this gap
between school life and marriage
Out the ministry of health and the
board of trade will attempt to
bridge.
