Marriaqe Of the Rice stalks IN Java
Rice is the most important 1000
product of the Island of Java. Inc
islanders believe that rice has soul,
declares Asia Magazine. In order to
keep on good terms with the rice
soul" prayers are offered to the rice
plant and offerings of fruit and flow
ers are made to it.
One Of the prettiest ceremonies of
the island is the wedding of the
rice" a make believe marriage GER
emory which takes place every year
at harvest time.
On the lucky day the Dookoon
calls the relatives and friends of the
owner and leads them into the field.
They are all in holiday dress and
Wear garlands of flowers about their
heads and bodies.
The Dookoon selects two stalks of
rice of the same length and thickness
to represent the bride and groom.
Then four other stalks, two to feprc-
sent the bridesmaids and two to re-
present the best men. are selected.
THE bridal party" is smeared
with yellow unguent, decorated with
sarlands of flowers, shaded from the
sun with a palm leaf awning, and
the stalks are cut around them.
After a great feast the party sets
out for the granary, where the bridal
party is locked for 40 days to denote
the passing of the honeymoon.

A Plaque of Grasshonners

France has had a grasshopper pest
of unparalleled severity. They have
not only destroyed crops but, accord
ing to cable dispatches, they have
interfered with train service as well
The insects appeared in such numbers
that they blocked train service be-
tween Mort and Fontenay-
a distance of over thirty miles. So
thickly were they massed in this
region that it was necessary to ston
trains frequently to clear the tracks
The train crews were supplied with
special implements for this purpose.

tor? You can't wait until the coal is
in and the furnace started, if you are
going to make your radiators look
more like a cozy part of the home and
less like piece of machinery! :
i have never understood why utilf-
tartan things necessarily have to be
uGly-sinks and refrigerators and
gas stoves and laundry tubs and-ra- >
diators. In a little play / saw last
year, the laundry ,ub in a peasant
cottage was painted a deep blue! In
Holland they have stoves that are a
decorative asset of the room-charm-
ing things of snow-white tiles and
shining brass doors, or blue picture
tiles or soft brown porcelain sides.
Why can't we have refrigerators made
in, attractive shapes and painted
amusing colors in attractive designs?
And. as to radiators, why. in the
world must those prominent and COM
fort-giving features of our rooms
look like the repellant coils of some
complicated iron serpent? Here they
are, in many cases the only substi- :
tutes for an open fireplace, and look
at them! Does any one want. to gather
joyously about them, to dream, eX-
change condolences or have a con-
tented dog browse at his feet? ask
you.
But since radiators themselves are
hopclessly plain. thank fortune there
are men of vision-who have designed
beautiful grilled cabinets for them,
with open fronts through which the
heat may come unimpeded and with
the long. low lines of beautiful pan
eled chest. No one would dream a
radiator was concealed behind this
decorative screen. And SO we may
have both comfort and beauty, IL only
we try hard enough and hunt long
enough To tind them.
