WEIRD CEREMONIES
OF HOPI INDIAN TRIBE
TAKEPLACE TOMORROW

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 10 (by Asso-
ciated Press) A relic of their bar
barrie past, yet such a part of their
tribal existence that it cannot be dis
carded-the annual snake dance of
the Hopi Indians-will be held this
year August 20 and September 6, at
the Hopi Indian reservation in East
ern Arizona, according to an an
nouncment made here recently.
The ceremonies surrounding the an
nual festival are so weird and bar
barrie that thousands of tourists and
pleasure seekers, bored by the COM
monplace and seeking something diff
ferent, pay the Hopi reservation a
visit.
Preceding the snake dance, which
continues for nine days, the Indians
hold a musical concert, participated
in by two bands, equipped only with
flutes. After playing several selec-
lions, the music ends with a foot
race.
When the snake dance starts, war
riors of the tribe are dispatched to
the desert to bring in the reptiles.
They are accompanied by musicians
whose performances on quaint must
cal instruments are supposed to lure
the snakes into the hands of the
warriors.
After capturing several snakes,
generally rattlers, the warriors re-
turn to the village, where the reptiles
are placed in stone jars. lamentations
accompanied by music and weird
dances around the jars then continue
for nine days.

HORRIBLERITE
OF VOODOOISM
YETPRACTICED

HAVANA, Cuba, July 20 CORES
pondence of Associated Press).-
With the recent sudden outbreak of
cannibalistic practices by VoodoO Wor-
shippers, which have resulted in the
deaths of at least three innocent
children and a half dozen of the
Voodoos, the latter by the application
of lynch law for the first time in
this country's history, fathers and
mothers are living in constant fear
that their little ones may be spirited
away by the superstitious negroes
to be offered up in sacrifice to
Change" the god of the "Brujos,"
as they are called in the Castillian
language.
The voodoos are divided into vari-
Gus sects, each with it's separate god.
The latter include "Babagueye," god
of sickness; "Eclecua," god of injury;
"Olorrun," god Of misery and Chan
CO." the terrible god to whom human
sacrifices are made.
"Chango," according to the Voodoo
belief, was the son of Olorrun and
Anaragua. He was slain by Elecua,
the "god of injury" and assembled
into heaven from a Ceiba, or god-tree,
in the month of May. It is in the
month of May therefore, that the
"Bruios" observe their holy week,
when Change is expected to make
weekly visit to the earth, descending
by the Ceiba, his sacred tree, always
on Monday.
The followers of Elecua do not
directly offer human sacrifices, al
though their healers sacrifice the
lives of some patients by giving
them poisonous connections, suppos-
edly a mysterious cure for some all
ment, in order to restore health to
some other patient. Elecua, being
the "god of injury" his followers be-

Voodooism is not practiced by the
negroes alone. Many white persons
also are said to secretly take part in
their religious meetings, and accussa-
tons have been heard in various
quarters of the difficulties encount-
cred by. officers seeking to break
up their temples because of the OBJ

Taking the small costume, as a whole, it isn't vastly different from others of the type. Yet, somehow, it has a little distinction quite all its own that induces you to look further. Then you begin to discover things, the cunning inverted pleats on the blouse, for instance, it's smart closing and then the attractively irregular cut of the trousers.
 Nor is any single one of those points of difference difficult to achieve. If you know the rudiments of dressmaking you needn't have in verted pleats explained to you nor the plan of the blouse closing. That like the smart flap on the trousers, is rather self-explanatory. But now something about what you are going to make the suit Of

WOMEN 10 LEARN HOW ID STAY
 RIGHT
Boston, Mass, Oct. IS.

Boston, Mass, Oct. IS. - Today at 10 o'clock more than a score of wealthy society women of Boston and vicinity will hold the first session of their specially organized class to take up the study of the intelligent management of their property. The sessions will be held in the new col lese of secretarial science, Boston University.
 This institution is the first univer- sity to recognize and meet the educa- tional requirements of women who may be called upon to manage or su- pervise personally their own es- tates.
 The number in the class will be between twenty-five and thirty, studies will be pursued for the whole school year, the classes being held at 10 o'clock.
 Conferences and discussions of various personal problems will be the rule The classes are to be held in the college building on Garrison street.
 Because of the prominent part that women are playing in business life, it is planned by the university to con stI,uct a building or to arrange for more commodious quarters of some kind to meet the expected growth of the new course. In all probability a building will be constructed before the fall term of next year.
 The women will not only be in structed in the fundamentals of f- nance, investments and business af- fairs, but are going to muster up courage enough to attack what man has fallen down on - the income tax laws and the making out of income tax reports
 These are the major subjects. Added to these there will be courses in personal and household accounts. commercial law, social correspond ence and English writing, with pos sibly several other subjects. One of the prime movers in the es- tabhshment of the new course at the college was Mrs. F. L. Higgtnson. chairman of the advisory board. As head of this board she is a member of the standing mmittee.
 Mrs. Higginson, who was chairman of the first Federal district woman's Liberty Loan committee, has used her influence to bring students into the course.

Natures Own SWeetener
 In Dishes Honey=FlayOred

fn the days before trade with the Tropics introduced cane sugar into the temperate regions honey was by far the most common sweet substance available for human food. In many localities 1t still is plentiful and cheap enough to allow of it's liberal use n cooking, and better practices in bee keeping are increasing the supply. As honey retains enough of the perfume of the flowers from which it comes to impart a distinct flavor to the dish it forms a part of, it is much prized by good cooks.
 Cakes made with honey keep soft for months, as does honey icing. Honey is slightly acid and better re- suits are obtained by using baking soda rather than baking powder n recipes which contain 1t. It may be substituted for sugar in any favorite recipe, replacing cup for cup. As a cup of honey contains, besides the equivalent of a cup of sugar, one fourth cup of water, use that much less liquid than is called for in the original recipe,
 by the home economics kitchen of the United States Department of Agri- culture follow:
 Honey Icing
 cup granulated sugar, 1-4 cup wa ter, 1-4 cup honey 1 egg white.
 Boil together the sugar and the Wa ter for a few moments and then add the honey, taking precautions to pre- vent the mixture from boiling over, as it Is likely to do. Cook until drops fthe sirup keep their form when poured into cold water, or to about 250 degrees F. Beat the white of the egg until stiff, and when the strup has cooled slightly pour over the egg. beating the mixture continuously un- til 1t will hold its shape. This frost ing Is suitable for use between layers of cake, but is rather too soft for the top. It remains in good condition and soft enough to be spread for many weeks and, therefore, can be made in large quantities for use as needed. After eight months, such icing has been found to be In good condition and soft enough to cut.
 Sauce for Ice Cream 2 tablespoons butter, 1-2 cup honey, 2 teaspoons cornstarch.
 Cook together the co1nstarch and butter thoroughly, being careful not to brown them. Add the honey and cook the mixture until it becomes hard when dropped into cold water and until all taste of raw cornstarch has been removed.

Household Hints

When hanging pictures always hang with face to the wall, then turn without unlocking the wire. This leaves the wire twisted at the hook and the jarring of the house will have no effect on them.
 Wrap white dresses in dark blue cambric when putting them away and they will not turn yellow. If you prefer to use white cloth dip it first in a strong b1uing water and the game result will be obtained.
