Tell Character of Child
By Number of Days 1t Was
Born After the New Moon

There Is a very ancient superstition
which says that it is possible to tell
the approximate character of. a child
by the number of days it was born
after the appearance of the new moon.
The following are the most important
indications:
If born within twenty-four hours
after a new moon the child will live
to a good old age, and practically ev-
erything he undertakes in life will be
successful.
If born within two days after the
new the child will be fortunate,
particularly in accidental things.
If upon the third day, this person
will achieve success, largely through
theh help and assistance of others.
If upon the fourth day, the child
will not be so successful in life, and
may have several serious illnesses.
Born upon the fifth day, such a per-
son will prove successful if care be
taken to start certain enterprises at
certain times.
The sixth is not a good day, as a
rule. Dreams r untrustworthy.
The seventh days child will have
many troubles but will conquer them
all.
On the eighth, success; dreams will
prove helpful and lost articles found.
Riches and honor await the child
born upon the ninth day.
The tenth day is u%nfavorable on the
whole, especially to boys.
A long, happy life to those born on
the eleventh day.
All dreams of the t%welfth-day child
will prove true quickly.

"0ld King Cole" of Nursery
Fame an Ancient Sovereign

The first reference to "Old King
Cole" the "merry old soul" of the fam
ou9 nursery rhyme, was made in a
book written by DR.. William King.
WHIP was born in 1888. 1t is probable
that the song was composed in the
seventeenth century, although some
investigators think it much older.
Halliwell identifies the merry monarch
with Cole or Coel, a s~emi-mythical
king of Britain, who is supposed to
haYe reigned in the third century.
The Scotch also have an "Old King
Coul," said to have lived in the fifth
century. Freeman and other histo-
rians say a King Cole ruled Britain in
the sixth century. There are many
who assert that the reference to the
pipe indicates that Old King Cole
lived at a period after Raleigh had in
troduced tobacco into Europe, but this
does not necessarily follow, as a
'pipe" might mean a musical instru-
ment.

CHICKEN HOUSE
lNEEDS VENTILATION

GOOD ventilation in the chicken
house is essential to success in the
poultry business, according to Ross NJ.
Shfwood, poultry husbandry special
list lin the extension division of the
Katsas State Agricultural college.
'phe two methods most commonly
used are the open-front house and the
curtain-front house, said Mr.. Sher-
wood. 1.-THE open front provides the
most fresh air and is giving excellent
results in some sections, but many
persons find it desirable to have cur-
tai4s that may be placed over most of
thd openings during bad weather. II
has been found that a house closed on
thrfe sides and tightly curtained on
the south does not provide enough
fresh air. To remedy this, a narrow
opening is often made just under the
raj tiers. This causes a freer circula-
tioh of air than is possible with all
the opening curtained, and yet does net
allow the wind to blow on the fowls"
The large curtained openings should
be from 30 to 80 inches from the floor
in order that the wind may not sweep
in directly upon the flock.
During the summer months openings
on the other sides of the building are
necessary to make it cool enough that
the fowls will roost there. These open
ings should be so located that the birds
will not be in a direct draft during the
night. These extra openings should be
closed tightly in winter.

POTATO FLOUR INDUSTRY

FROM THE UNITED STATES FUEL ADMINISTRATOR
FOR NEW JERSEY
TO ELECTRIC POWER CONSUMERS:

TO ELECTRIC POWER CONSUMERS:
It is your patriotic duty as loyal Americans to save fuel
by observing the following requests:
% Do not use motors unnecessarily.
() See that shafting is in line and all bearings well lubri-
Gated.
81 Increase your production and avoid accidents by proper
but not wasteful lighting.
"a Do not run motors underloaded. Get a smaller motor
or connect more machines to same shafting.
90 Without curtaning production, try to arrange your
work requiring electric power so that your pull or load
ON the lines and apparatus Of the company will be as
nearly constant as you can make it.
By doing the above you a. aid the government in saw
ing fuel, ~ help to increase the power supply available for
war industries, ~ save money in your lighting bill.
Remember that a slight effort and inconvenience on
your part is insignificant compared to the efforts and suf-
ferings of our boys in the trenches.

Mere Lines

Though young in years my players

in speaking of the Seventeen" organ =
ization. Moreover, all are imbued
with the love of acting, and all work to
really common ideals.
I'VE hold that the thought behind
the line is more important than the line,
and the task of the actor is to- project
that thought. Our rehearsals are in
formal and brief. We get together and
run through the play and discuss it,
l have personal talks with all the mem
bers of the cast about their role, and the
members of the company consult with
each other on the scenes they have to-
gether. After rehearsal these discus
sions and consultations continue. Two
persons will get together and talk for an
hour or more over a certain scene. In
this system, before we start to give a

presented in our leading cities, they
are amazed in the extreme"
This is undoubtedly true, but it may
well be questioned as to just how much
OF part grand opera has played in
bringing about this condition. Our great
orchestras, which visit small cities as
well as large ones, together with the
pioneer work of men like Theodore
Thomas and Leopold Damrosch, to men :
tion only two, have been among the
| main factors in this work of developing
the Inherently musical nature of the
American. The introduction of music
into the public schools must also be con-
sidered as having played leading part,
and the phonograph has also dShe much
to bring to the homes of the people mu-
sical productions which in the original
form they would never have a chance to
hear, either by reason Of geographical
or financial conditions.

A dramatic element is as highly de-
veloped as it is in Mr.. Scott, he con :
siders Puccini the greatest of the modern
Italian operate composers. On this
point he says:
of the great Italian opera composers
OF today l felt that Puccni is perhaps
the greatest, because he has deeper
and more intimate appreciation of the
atrical values. Every note that Puccini
writes smells of the paint and powder
behind the proscenium arch. He seems
to know just what music will go best
with certain series of words in order
to bring out the dramatic meaning. This
is in no sense a depreciation Of the fine
things that Mascagni, Leoncavallo and
others have done. 1t is simply my
personal estimate of Puccini's worth
as an operatic composer.
Strangely enough Mr.. Scott likes
Madame Butterfly better than any
other Italian opera of recent years, plac
ing it ahead even of "Tossa" in which
his Scarpia stands alone. He consid
ers his best role that Of Chin Fen in
IL Oracolo," and those who saw his
performance of the part will have little
reason to disagree with his own esti
mate.
