OIL AND WATER WILL
 NOT MIX, IS BILL
Irene Fenwick And Owen Moore Featured Today At Eagle In "A Coney Island Princess"

Oil and water will not miX-that is an old axiom; but it is no truer than the fact that Fifth avenue and Coney Island are not intended to meet and mingle on the same social plane. Fifth avenues manners and garb are very humorous in the eyes of Coney Island and Coney Islands lack of manners and garb are equally humoIous to Fifth avenue-where they are not shockingly offensive.
 Slices from these two very different strata o fsociety meet and try to min. gle on the screen of the Eagle today, wheer the Fam ousPlayers Film Com pany presents Irene Fenwick, with Owen Moore. in "A Coney Island Prin- cess," a Paramount Picture. produced under the direction of Del Henderson. It is an adaptation of Edward Shel- dOn's successful play, The Princess Zim-Zim." The result is one of the most fascinating combinations of com edy and drama that has been seen on the screen for long while. Can you imagine a CSney Island dancer Tes- sic Mooney. introduced to Fifth avenue as the fiancee of one of the 400 :? Can you picture her father. the owner of the Turkish Dream" struggling in to "open-face rags wid glass skids on his feet and mufflers on his mits' ! He is officially dressed for a reception m honor of his daughter-and spends most of his time slipping his aching feet out of his patent leather shoes.
 Pete, the young chap to whom Tes- sic is engaged, has wandered into her fathers show in a semi-intoNicated condition after his former fiancee has broken her engagement to him in dis gust at his propensity for drinking.

HOUSEHOLD ECONOMY
 DURING WAR TIMES
(By Review Leased wirel

BERKELEY, May 16-Miss Ethel Moore a member of the California State Council of Defense. has issued the following seven suggestions to housewives for food conservation; 1. Don't buy food because of It's attractive appearance. The most economical food is that which sup plies the most nutrition at the least cost. Study food values to learn how 10 substitute cheaper for more expen- sive foods.
 9 Select things which are in sea son. and therefore favorable in price.
 3. Poor preparation reduces food value. Prepare your food with a view to getting all of its value on the ta- ble.
 A. Don't throw away any good food that might be used on taking little thought
 3. Care for the food that comes in to the house. Study methods of pre- servation.
 6. Eliminate the extravagant ex- peuse of delivery to the home. Don't require delivery of small orders twice day.
 7 Plan menus to conserve fuel For instance. if meat is being cooked in the gas oven. most of the other dishes for the meal should be also baked Bad construction of oven and lack of sufficient flow of air through the gas burners also cause waste. Save it by caring for your stoves.
