 Mrs. Rabbit had a hundred and one objections to that plan. She started to tell what they were. when voice above their heads made them look up quickly.

 Cookies are easy to make and at- tractive when garnished and frosted. For instance. a heart-shaped cookie may be frosted pink or red. or frost ,ed white and garnished with a heart made from red candies.
 Cookie dough cut with a hatchet- shaped cutter might have cherry baked on it.

For those who live in or near cities there are. in all the candy shops, many attractive decorations in keep ing with the season.

Marcus Show Here Next
 Week Regarded as Best

Tonight is the final performance of the Checker Girls in their musical comedy triumph and beginning Mon- day the Marcus Show of 1923 will be here for a week, opening with the 70 You Baby" comedy farce. For to- morrow night the Lyceum presents two big time movies, Betty Compson in Ladies Must Live" and Appear ances," a society drama. For Mon- day, Tuesday and Wednesday Bebe Daniels in The Speed Girl' will, be the movie attraction.
 The Marcus show claims distinc- tion as the largest touring organiza- tion and no other company contains samples of so many divers styles of entertainment. In the many scenes required for the unfolding of the musical comedy, the company runs the gamut from travesty to grand opera. It lacks only . plot and no pretense is made that there is one, the play deriving it's strength from its clean comedy and clever lines and ac- tion. Marcus himself claims to have spent a small fortune in costumes alone and the lingerie exhibit should have an especial appeal to the fair sex. Here are shown a score of recent Paris importations displayed on at- tractive models. The exhibit ranges from lace robes de nuit to gauzy un- dies that defy description. The in genue is especially charming, both as to stage personality and clothes, while the comedian ,is a world beater, presenting the finest brand of comedy. The musical numbers are exceptional ly good and the chorus is both come ly and capable. there being 30 in the company. For the past few weeks the Marcus show has been playing various houses in this state, some of them on the Poli circuit. Advance reports from Bridgeport, Waterbury and Meriden indicate that this is &C., tually a show that will live up to it's reputation in every respect.
 The accompanying picture gives Bebe Daniels one of her greatest op- portunities. She appears as a movie actress who has the speed mania and while rushing her lover, a naval of- ficer, to catch his boat she is arrest ed for speeding She is even cast in to jail. While there another suitor double escrosses" her lover and she is saved from a jail marriage with the villain only by the timely arrival of '.the other girl"

 They were winding around bend in the road which followed the river bank. A charming little shack, part fly logs. partly rough stone, was vis- ible.

 That's it."
 As the car came to a halt she skipped out and up the path.

OLD MIR. CROW TO THE RESCUE

OLD MIX. CROW ID THE RESCUE.
 Poor MT. Rabbit was almost frantic Both his slippers were in the slippery elm tree, where he couldn't get them. It was bad enough when only one was up there. But when young Jimmy Rabbit, hoping to knock the slipper down. hurled the second one at it, and the second one stayed up in the tree too, that was worse.
 "Oh, dear! Oh, dear." Mir. Rabbit kept repeating. Whatever shall l do now?" He was so upset that he dashed to the foot of the tree and actually tried to climb it.
 Unhappily, Mir. Rabbits claws were not made for climbing. His claws were neither sharp enough nor curved enough. He could only leap little way up the trunk of the tree, scratch at it's bark for an instant, and then fall back into the snow.
 Don't! Don'tp" His wife begged

co oy WITH THE STORY

Except foH asking James Latham to drive to the little fishing shack where Dams trunk had been left, Kate was silent when she returned to the car
 Something the woman said of Alice he.Ax her attention.
 WShe might be a fine lady now If she hadn't fallen for the wrong man."
 Perhaps, thought Kate, if Alice and she had reversed in meeting their men friends, their positions might now be reversed. Perhaps it isn't so much myself or Alice's self which put either of us where we are, the thought tinued; it may be just circumstances with which we came in touch at vari- ous times.
 She marveled at Alice's willingness to share her little worldly spoil with another woman.
 And she wondered who the man had been, the one who stood out in Alice's life so distinctly that, in spite of her reticence, her friend had sensed the affair. Could it be possible that he was the man with whom she had seen Alice? Could the slim, slouching fig ure she saw bending toward Alice, as he entered the hotel, be the man for whom the girl cared so much? And, if he was, what of Dan? What place had Dan occupied in the girls life?
 Kate found some comfort in the thought that Alice's chief interest had been in some other man. Yet, strange ly, her vanity was hurt that, since she believed Dan had been interested in Alice. the girl had not given him her first and greatest affection.
 She was jealeds of him, but quite as jealous for him! Like all women. she wantet her man to be the most attractive to other women, yet she wanted him to be very apparently her own.

Good Manners

"Thanking you in advance" is any thing but q suitable termination for letter asking a favor from another. Firstly. il takes too much for granted in assuming that the request surely will be granted, even though one may know it as certainty. Second.

URGES FURTHER PROTECTION
OF EYES OF WORKINGMEN

NEW YORK, May % - Two hun-
drea thousand accidents to the eyes
of workmen occur in industry each
year. and approximately 1s percent OF
the total blind population of the coun-
try. or $4,000, represent the industrial
blind: these are two OF the facts de-
veloped in an investigation of the
eve hazards OF industrial occupations
which was conducted last year by the
National Committee for the Proven
ton Of Blindness. The study covered
every state in the union and every
industrial occupation in which there
is an accident hazard.
The report points out that much al
ready has been accomplished toward
alienation of the eve accident prob
lem in industry. but all this is merely
a beginning.
There are still countless plants
whose operations present curious eve
hazards. in which no goggles or 9th
er protective equipment are available.
There are many plants where work
men still wear goggles in their peck
cts except when they are watched
There are still plants in which tooth
picks, matches, handkerchiefs, pocket
knives, and even the tongues of work
men are the instruments employed TO
remove cinders and other particles
from the eyes Of fellow workers"
Industrial accidents. the report
says, are responsible for an injury to
human eye every 21s minutes, day
and night. 365 days a year.
The solution of this problem" the
report says, depends upon three
forces: legislation, education, and
actual accident prevention service to
industry. and it makes the following
general statements:
First. tho elimination Of eye haz-
ards in industry is not only moral
obligation, but good business propo-
sition;
Second, goggles at best are han
dicap; the first effort, therefore.
should be directed toward the elimi-
nation of the hazard itself by chang
ing the processes of Manufacture. by
redesigning machines and tools. or by
guarding machines and tools at the
