CHURCH PICNICS
Methodists and Presbyterians
Had Big Times Wednesday

Last Wednesday Newark seemed
rather deserted, this resulted from
the fact that both the picnics of the
Methodist and Presbyterian Churches
went away on that day.
The members of the Methodist
Church went on their annual outing
to Augustine Piers while the Pres
byterians went to Welsh Tract.
There were several hundred persons
on both the outings and all those who
went reported a good time.

BEANS AND soxEs

II is often hard for the mother find
lasting and pleasant pastimes for
her little child. He may be too young
to play outdoors alone. During the
winter months many hours a day
must be spent indoors.
My knowledge of a two-year-old
child's play instincts and the use Of
some very ordinary household mater
ial, have developed several oceupa-
tions which might be found useful
and helpful to others
There are his beloved Beans" He
has already spent days and days with
them and still shows a ready interest
when they appear from the shelf in
the pantry. A little cup of beans, the
hard red kidney beans, and a glass
dish were the extent of his materials
to bgein life with. He loved to pour
these out and refill his cup, becom-
ing absorbed in his occupation for as
long as thirty minutes at one time.
Later | added a glass fruit jar, and
mixed with the red beans some large
white navy beans for him to sort out
and drop into his jar. This alsa was
found to be a successful experiment,
giving training to his powers to dis
criminate in color and size.
Our Beans" lend themselves to
many occasions. They were the
means of keeping two little visitors
happy while the mother, who had
left them in my charge, went to
town. She told me aftrward that she
has borrowed the idea for their play
tinre at home.
My sons irrepresible desire to
pound the chairs and tables or ham,
mer on the furniture with almost any
article he could get hold of led to
another occupation. The material
this time consisted of box which
the grocery boy had left, a good sized
nail and the coveted household ham
mer. Although he does not do any
thing so far but fit the nail in an old
nail hole and pound, he is safely CIV
ing vent to growing instinct to
handle and WELD, in imitation of his
elders. Later two OF three nails
could be given, and still latr a bit of
board to nail to the box, anticipating
future crude but effective toy max.

county extension agent in Catron
county, New Mexico equipped his
automobile with low-gear shifts to
overcome rise of 1000 feet in two
miles on one of the two main roads
across the county and other obstacles
to travel, according to report to the
United States Department of Agri
culture. Until he did this he could
only reach certain sections of the
county by horseback or by detouring
from 100 to $50 miles. The county
seat of Catron county is 1O7 miles
from the railroad. which gives some
idea OF the difficulties of carrying on
efficient extension work in this reg

ICE CREAM MEETING

Acting on a petition OF ice cream
manufacturers of Kentucky, the Blu
reau of Foods, Drugs and Hotels ol
the State Board Of Health win hold
hearing in Louisville early in Sep
tember to decide whether manufac
turers OF ice cheam shall be permit
ted to reduce the percentage of but
tr fat from 10 per cent in plain cream
and per cent in fruit cream to
and per cent respectively, II was
announced at Louisville late last
week by Miss Sarah II. Vance, direc.
tor of the bureau.
The manufacturers who have re-
quested that this change in the regu-
lations be made. Miss Vance says,
give as their reasons for 1t the fact
that every state surrounding Ken
lucky has the lower percentage re-
quirement and that the lower stand
ard invariably results in an increased
sale of dairy products.
Before the State Board of Health
takes any action in the matter, how
ever. Miss Vance added. it desires to
know what other persons interested
wish, and for this reason dealers
who handle ice cream and members
of the general public that use it are
invited to communicate their views
to the Bureau of Foods. Drugs and
Hotels before September 5.

sAcKlRs ARE KEPT GUESSING


Russian refugees in C0nstantlnOple
turn their hands to all sorts OF money
making devices. The latest and most
successful are cockroach races. These
are held In rooms which the Russians
hire along the Grand Rue de Pera.
The story as told by Kenneth L. Rob
erts in the Saturday Evening Post. Ia
that in the center OF each room is
large table with a miniature race
track built on It. The owner places a
box at one end of the track and waits
until his patrons have made their bets
on five contestants. Then he opens
the box and discloses five enormous
cockrosches attached to dlminutive
suIkies. AS the box Is opened four Of
the contestants may start briskly
around the track, while the fifth mag
turn abruptly and canter In the wrong
direction amid heart-breaklng groans
from those who are backing his colors
Then the leader of the four racers who
are headed In the right direction may
stop short and twiddle his feelers pen
sively, and the other three may also
stop and cluster around him to inves-
tigate the cause of the delay. While
the conference is in progress the cock
roach that started the wrong way may
change his mind, turn and come dash
Ing past the four idlers with his eyes
flashing and his tail up. Then the four
idlers may recover from their mo-
tnentary ennui gtaff hrisklv nm the
track again and pass the fifth contest
ant, who has probably fallen into a
brown study and leaned up against
the race-track wall with crossed legs
and weakly waving fseIers. And so 1t
goes until one Of the sockroaches final
ly pulls himself together and scuttles
across the finish line.
