LINDBERGH 15 ANNOUNCED Will Marry the Daughter of Dwight W. Morrow, U.S. Ambassador Mexico City, Feb, 14.--United States Ambassador Dwight W, Mor- row announced the engagement of his daughter, Anne, to Colonel Charles A. Lindbergh, Miss Anne Morrow is now at the United States embassy here with her parents. The young couple first met when Colon el Lindbergh made his non-stop flight from Washington to Mexico City, a little more than a year ago. Since that time, Colonel Lind- bergh has been the guest of Morrow family in Mexico City and at their country home at Cuernava- ca, Miss Morrow is 22, a brunette, and a favorite in the diplomatic 80- cial circles here. She won two prizes for proficiency in scholarship at Smith college, from which she grad- uated last year, The Mexican capital suspected that a romance was in the offing be- tween the colonel, who has been the idol of feminine hearts since he flew to Paris, and Miss Morrow. Rumors to that effect had been printed in local papers last Novem- ber, but at that time were denied, Miss Morrow and her mother ar- rived in Mexico City shortly before noon yesterday from Laredo, Texas. Late in the afternoon Ambassa- dor Morrow sumomned the news- paper correspondents and handed them a formal typewritten state- ment, It read, "Ambassador and Mrs, Morrow have announced"the en- ragement of their daughter, Anne Spencer Morrow, to Colonel Charles A. Lindbergh." Ambassador rrow refused ab- solutely to say thing more. He declined to give any indication of the time or place of wedding, but the capital immediately assumed that it would be held in Mexico City and perhaps before long. The ambassador was smiling and seemed highly pleased as he made the anonuncement. He declared that no definite plans have yet heen determined upon. There was immediate spec- ulation as to whether the colonel might fly to Mexico City as soon as he completes his air mail flight.

BOWL DATES TO 1650 Toronto, Feb, 14.--A wooden wassail bowl dating back to 1650 is among the recent acquisitions of © | the Royal Ontario Museum. The bowl is designed on perfect lines and bears the coat of arms of the Burgess family, in whose posses- sion it is known to have remained until the end of the 18th century. The use of the wassail bow! is be- lieved to :date from the time of Vortigern,* self-constituted king of the British after the withdrawal of the Roman garrisons. Plundering by the Saxons on the coast of Bri- tain in those days was a serious menace and Vortigern conceived the idea of buying off the invaders. When he met the Saxon leader, Hengist, a Saxon maiden brought the king a cup of gold filled with wine saying '"Waes Hael," (be of good cheer,) This is supposed to be the derivation of wassail, the name later applied to the wooden loving cups and their contents, which became an important feature i the great houses of "Merrie Eng- and."

One of the maddest, merriest so- cial seasons in America is over, madder than it has been in a long time, because Mardi Gras came in years, and after Mardi Gras a debutante is a debutante no longer.

Last year it fell on Feb. 21, and the year before on March 1. But this year is hectic, for everything must be done before Feb, 12, and there is a great decal to be done during carnival season in New Or- leans. number of "carnival" organizations ~--the Twelfth Night Revelers, the Prophets of Persia, the Dukes of Alexis, the Knights of Momus, the Knights of Comus, the Knights of Proteus and so on. Each of these organizations membership in which is almost like membership in a hereditary peerage--gives one spectacular masked ball during the carnival season. A debutante is selected as queen of the ball and is vested with a robe and crown and sceptre, and a half a dozen 'others are chosen to be maids of the court. A girl's success is mea- sured by the favor she has receiv- ed in the carnival eourts, and the crown and sceptre given to grand- mother when she was queen of a ball in 1870 are treasured heir- 1 in the leading families. in the House for first reading and will pilot it through the musieipal law committee.

Mastery of Hands The Minister of the Interior | Announces This i Innovation Ottawa, Feb. 14.--Canada is to have a national tree census, This move by the dominion government toward the conservation of the for- ests, was outlined by Hon. Charles Stewart to the Canadian Forestry association here. The minister of interior and His Excellency Vis- count Willingdon, were the chief The governor-general called on the assocfation to teach Canada's new settlers their duties in econser- ving the lumber wealth of the na- tion. His excellency believed credit was due to the dominion govern- ment that many of the greatest forest areas were being kept as na- tional parks. These natural beauties would thus remain part of the coun- try's heritage as long as she herself was a country. "The lumber industry is one of the greatest resources in Canada and one on which the future pros- perity of the dominion depends to a very large degree," Hon. Mr. Ste- wart declared. He said the taking of an inventory on the national for- est wealth was decided upon "so we might know just what forests we have." The inventory would be star- ted this year in the western pro- vinces. Premiers of all the pro- vinces had been asked to arrange for separate inventories. Brig.-General * J. B. White, of Montreal, was elected president of the association for 1929.
