OAKLAND, Cal.-Miss Ruth
Convey Merritt, daring society girl,
is back from the Philippines where
she was the first white woman hon.
ored with a formal reception by the
king of the primitive Zamoaies
| Negritos in a secluded corner of the
islands.
Here's Miss Merritt's own story
of her experiences:
BY RUTH COVEY MERRITT
In America we send out cards
ahead when we're going to a recep-
ton. Not SO in Zambale Land.
Instead the fashion is to send a
bundle of old clothing, cheap jewell
ry, small mirrors and other trinkets.
And instead of taking a
over a boulevard, / had to hike sew
ing five rivers.
The nearest thing to buffers the
king could provide was guides.
And the reception! A half mile off
I could hear the sound Of voices
shrieking a welcome song. Finally
I was ushered into the reception
room, a small jungle clearing.
The king proudly wearing the
cast-off golf cap and ill-ftting broad
cloth suit L had sent ahead, leIt MS
| picturesque throne for an informal
greeting.
Then I was amazed to hear, COM
ing from a treetop, a sing-song voice
| chanting "A Hot Time in the Old
| Town. 1t was being sung by the
princess who had learned 1t from
American hunters.
AS a woman is Of little conse-
quence in the tribe the queen was
allowed to stay but a moment. Dur
ing that moment. however, she Dor
rowed a cheap rhinestone hatpin l
was wearing and, putting it rakishly
into her couture. forgot to return it.
After this the party" started. A
parade of natives appeared, bearing
water in cocoaput shells. We adj
journed to the council chamber"
another jungle clearing. Here had
been built the official throne and the
great honor of letting me share 1t
with the king was bestowed.
From this point We viewed the
program which included an archery
contest. a round of strange tea
served in bamboo cups, a course of
wild chicken soup, a strange dish OF
wild honey served on a banana leaf.

men 1 might marry do not measure
up to it.-M. A.. B."
The young pima has analysed
herself exactly. Often 1t happens
that the daughter of an extraordi-
nary man establishes q test for
young men which they cannot pass
Doubtless the girl has formed an
idea of what her husband should be
from what her father Is. Unfairly,
but unintentionally, she expects her
young men friends to possess the
hard experience of long years.
More than m fine girl has pre-.
ferred to remain a spinster rather
than put up with a boy OF her own
age until he developed to her faith
er's level!
New. spfnsterhood 10 honorable
and admirable. but 1t Is a lonesome
profession as the modern girl fully
realizes.
Sometimes I wonder why girls to-
day sophisticated in so many ways,
think only half way to the end OF
the marriage problem. This girl
| finds herself in a clustered profeg-
sion. She knows that propinquity
and opportunity are necessary In
gradients of the wedding cake. She
knows that when a man wishes tC
marry he goes where he can md q
girl who suits his financial condition
as well as his heart.
Why should a girl do differently?

Your Health
(By DIR. r. II. Bishop


Watch Your Galleries
The man whose work keeps him
continually exerting his muscular
power has a greater total energy
requirement than a sedentary man.
Muscular work is usually referred to
as light" moderate" active" or
Severe"
Light muscular work is not much
more vigorous than walking at a
moderate pace along a level stretch
of road. 1t requires about on cal
orie a pound every hour.
Moderate exercise is typical of &C.
equations that involve active use OF
some part Of the body while sitting,
standing or walking.
Such activity means the expendi-
ture of from one and a quarter to
one and a half calories q pound
every hour.
Active exercise requires the ex-
penditure of from one and three
fourths to two calories a pound
every hour. while severe work re-
quires fuel equal to as much as
three calories a pound every hour.
Thus we can see that to classify
and work out the best food plans
for each one in her family the
housewife would have to do no lit
tie studying and reading. 1t would
keep her continually figuring and
consulting books on nutrition.
The study OF calories in relation
to food values makes q good study
for the dietitian or the woman who
has the time to make this study a
practical hobby.
But the average housewife has nc
time to bother about such things
The baby. the growing child, the
adult man and the adult woman all
have different requirements Of fuel
energy.
The best tests to ascertain wheth-
err food is properly chosen is the test
of good health. If the baby gains
weight normally. If the child shows
evident signs of normal growth and
health, if the adult maj. and woman
retain a normal weight for age and
height, then all is, as a rule. we'll.
