Football In China.

The Chinese, first rs they were In
many things, were first in the field
with that winter pastme we regard
as peculiarly our own--football They
played football from very early times
at first with a ball stuffed with hair,
but from the fifth century with an in
tlated bladder covered with leather.
Even In the earliest days the game
had its own literature, giving the tech
meal names and positions of the play
ers and enumerating at least seventy
different varieties Of kicks; but per
haps the most striking matter so re-
corded was that concerning the re-
ward Of the players "The winners
were rewarded with flowers, fruit and
wine; and even with silver bowls and
brocades; while the captain of the los.
ing team was flogged and suffered
other indignities."

Checks are not much used and are
seldom accepted in France. There is
but little attempt to identify the payer
Of a check and anyone who either
makes out or accepts an order to pay
does so at his peril. The public tax
collector will have none of them, and
the taxpayer has to stand In line with
his bank bills in the back yard or in the
garrett OF the precepteur. or else he
must 90 to Jail for nonpayment. He
cannot send check. There Is ne clear

ICE CONSERVATION URGED
householders Told How to Economic
on Ice.

with the approach of hot weather,
conservation If ice Is urged upon
househoIders by the United States Food
Administration. AS the use of Ice by
the household Is of such assistance in
preserving food and administering
comfort during the summer weather.
every effort is being made to see that
all families receive q sufficient supply,
but eXtravagant and unnecessary con-
sumption Is being discouraged.
The Food Administration has there
fore issued the following suggestions
for lee conservation by householders !:
Put ice in the refrigerator as soon
as It is delivered.
Keep the refrigerator in a cool place.
See that refrigerator doors fit tight
and are kept closed tight.
Do not open refrigerator doors more
often than necessary. Every time
they are opened the cold air pours out
and the warm air that takes It's place
IS cooled at the expense of ice.
Do not put warm food in refrigerator.
Let il first cool to the temperature of
the atmosphere
See that the trap through which the
melt0ge passes out at the bottom Of
the refrigerator is kept in place. This
trap is liable to become lost or broken,
IN which case constant stream of
warm air will flow into the refrIgera-
tor.
Ice should not be used in serving
fruit and sea food. Served direct from
the refrigerator. they are cold enough
Do not put more ice than Is ncceS-
Sary into glasses of water. ten and
other drinks. 4 bottle Of water kept
In the refrigerator will answer all re.
qulrrments for cool drinking water.
Avoid OBTAINING the lee delivery

is probably serving larger route
than ever this ycNr cooperation on
the part Of the householder in this re-.

er territory and release labor for other
essential purposes,
