Dear Folks: When the year is
new and fresh, let's start something
that may help us all. Each season
has it's special dishes-if our good
housekeepers would be so kind as to
send in their fayorites for each sea-
son as it comes, we could this year
compile a Question Box Cook Book
that would be a pleasure and service
to us all.
How does this idea strike you?
Cordially yours,
AUNT JULIA.
Tippie: The price of a short
story depends largely on the quality
of that story and the publication ac-
cepting it. 1t would be impossible
for me to state any given price. A
good quality Of typewriter paper,
written on one side only, is best for
such q manuscript. 1t is best to
have this typewriter, but when this
is impossible, a clear, distinct writ
ing with pen and ink is acceptable.

tons, New York city.

If you expect to grow a fine quail

mercial purposes, you will find it
necessary to spray your orchard
very thoroughly and completely. A
great deal has been written on this
subject Fortunately, also, spray cal

of the best which I can suggest for
your consideration at this time is the
following:
During the dormant season or
after the leaves drop, but before the
buds open in the spring. spray with
concentrated lime sulphur of the

material should be used to protect

be made, one in the fall and an
other in tie spring. In the spring
when the buds are bursting, but be-

Dear Children
I am very grateful when realize
that I am to have another year with
you. Each year has seemed to bring
us closer together, and of course
it is my wish to make each year
happier and better for you.
This is next to our last install
ment of the Indian story. If you wish
something of like character to fol
low, please write me, all suggestions
will receive consideration.
Indian Children
According to Indian belief, babies
born in the house brought i'll luck
to the entire family, consequently
babies were usually born in brush
shelter some distance back of the
family dwelling. Just as soon S the
babies were born, they were taken
to the bank of a river, and even in
the winter time they were plunged
in the water that they might be
strong and have courage. After the
bath they were wrapped with lin
ings of cedar or other bark and Sc
curely fastened to cradle board.
Here they stayed for many, many
months. AS long as the baby re-
manned on the cradle board the moth
er carried it about on her back, stood
it up against the wall or hung it
from a. tree while she did the cook
ing, weaving or planting. That they
might be the more handsome in the
eyes of their tribesmen the babies
had cedar bark pads bound to their
foreheads to- flatten them, and sim
liar pads bound to the lower part
Of their legs to make the calves
bulge. All Indians cut the lobes of
the babies ears, some tribes pierced
the septun of the nose, strung them
with sinew and hung from them
beads or stones.
AS Indian children grew older they
wore few or no clothes. Each morn
ing the year round they took a
plunge in the river. They had no
towels or soap, but often rubbed
themselves with hemlock branch. TIE
keep from chapping they covered
their bodies with oil, tallow or red
paint.
Indians seldom called each other
by name; they spoke to and Of each
other as friend. cousin, brother.
uncle, grandmother, etc. Surnames
were unknown. Children were first
named after some brave relative, to
commemorate some brave act on the
part of a parent. After a little this
was changed to the first thing the
baby noticed, for instance "Rain-in-
e-Face" an other like names.
Throughout his life, an Indian might
have five or six names, changing
the old name for a new one as he
performed some feat Of daring or
courage, Or as he saw visions or
dreamed strange dreams"

JOURNALIST SLAIN
IN POLITICAL FEUD
TraiIed Man for Months to
Wreak Vengeance, Mace
donian Says.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
MILAN. Italy, December Pa
story of political blood vengeance. an
echo of the Balkan troubles, was re-
counted yesterday following the fatal
shooting here Tuesday night of Peter
Schankeff, a Macedonian journalist,
by Dimitri Stefanoff, said to be the
head of the Macedonian federaiist
movement.
Stcfanoff, who freely admitted to
the police yesterday the killing of
Schankeff. declared that he had fol-
lowed the journalist since last Sep
tember. He said he killed him be-
cause he was a bolshevist and a trail
tor to his country. Schankeff, he said,
had betrayed pledges given to put
himself at the head of the Dissident
Macedonians and, during the strug-
giles of September, 200 members of
the Macedonian revolutionary move
ment were killed.
'T am a Macedonian Nationalist.
said Stefanoff, "and / love my coun-
try intensely. 1t was only to serve
her that l executed this renegade. /
am glad was chosen to sacrifice my
self"
In telling the story Stefanof said
that the revolutionary Macedonian
committee met al a small city in cen
trail Macedonia, after the discovery
or the alleged treaCnerE OF SChdnkeH.
where money was given him to go
abroad and search for the missing
journalist He said he was unac-
ouainted with SchankeT personally,
but he was provided with his photo
graph, which he kept constantly in
his pocket until he came to Italy. He
visited Rome and learned that Schan-
keff had gone TO Milan. Following
him to this city, he saw Schankeff If
for the first time in Cathedral Square.
There, he declared he might have
killed him. but refrained from max
ing the attempt because of the fear
his shots might miss and injure in
nocent people.
Stefanoff shadowed the journalist
for several days. he continued, be-
coming we'll acquainted with his hab-
it's. He learned that every day at a
certain time Schankeff went to pub
lie bar for drink. Yesterday Stefa-
noff found his quarry seated at ta-
BILE drinking. He approached him, he
said, and. looking him straight in the
eyes and without a word, drew ais
pistol and shot him five times, ftll-
Ing him instantly.
Aftcrward according to the police,
the slayer attempted to commit sui
eide, but his pistol failed TO fire. In
Schankeff's pockets were found $40
Italian lire and $40. The theory OF
the people is that the slain man had
intended to leave. for America.
