In addition to this the ed Cross will offer a course in home dietetics, or "Food in Its Relation to Health" to those who have taken the 'other course. These courses are open to all the women of the north shore. Asked to Register ~ Miss Murray requests that all those wishing to enter the course next fall register at once. "It was due to the fact that many failed to register in time that the course was late this season," she said. "If the women will register for the new course this spring, we will be able to start on time." The new course will include the following subjects : ! Lesson 1. On "Planning the Day's Food," shows that it is possible "to plan attractive menus without monot- ony even in these days of the high cost of living, on a small sum. What Food Does for Us Lesson 2. "What Food Does for Us"--what part does it play in the health of the family? Lesson 3. Vegetables and Fruits" are better than pills and sanitariums. Preventives are taking the place of cures. Lesson 4. "The Body's Need for Protein." Various ages require vary- ing amounts of this essential which you know more familiarly as meats, peas, milk, cheese, etc. Lesson 5. "Meat and Meat Substi- tutes" naturally follow. Whether we substitute or not is largely a matter for our pocketbook to decide. - Milk Is Invaluable Lesson 0. "Milk the Indispensable Food." As a protection to health milk is invaluable. Lesson 7.' "Cereals, the Best Re- turn for Your Money'--yet how nlany of us use them? Lesson 8. "Bread, the Staff of Life," to both the'poor and rich can be varied in many ways for the ap- petite of the sick or well. Lesson 9. "The Use of Sugar." Its food value, its production and distri- bution should be a matter of inter- Bracelets Bracelets are steadily becoming more popular and are now the most acceptable gift in jewelry.

AWKWARD PLACE FOR AN ECHO Piano duets | ------ : Fats and Oils Lesson 10. "Fats and Oils." Their use and abuse, Lesson 11. "Beverages and Food Accessories." Are they necessarily evils? : Lesson 12. "Proving Whether the Food Supply Is Adequate." Malnu- trition exists among the rich as well as the poor. Do you know why? Lesson 13. "Food for the Young." Lesson 14. "Feeding the Much Lesson 15. "Special Diets." | An extraordinary echo is produced by the high hills surrounding a golf course in the south of England, and it is feared that a three-mile limit may have to be fixed for children gud clergymen. --From Punch, Lon- on. SELL THROUGH WANT ADS y WHI LE; THEY'LL DIE SHAKING The shimmie is fast becoming the popular indoor sport of cockroaches. This fact was divulged at Reed College, Portland Oregon, recently when Dr. Helen Clark, head of the Reed psychology department, de- scribed the effect of dance music upon the lower organisms. Miss Clark says soft, tuneful music will send a healthy cockroach into an emotional trance which finds ex- pression in a rhythmic dange. High strains produce an ecstatic response which has every semblance of the shimmie. : Similar results have been observed in the angleworm, which has wriggled and shivered in perfect cadence with a popular dance step. Experiments, carried on by a Reed junior student, showed similar response in a captive mouse, which danced a "fox trot" to a tune whistled in its ear. | The cure in the town of Villeneuve Saint-Georges, France, has added something new to the churgh's ¢cam- paign against indecent dress by pur- chasing a white dress and announcing that all brides who come to this church to be married, lightly clad, 'will be escorted into a room and re- quired to don the more suitable costume. The cure's announcement is made in the latest number of the 'parish bulletin.
