Yes or No?

Does an automobile engine use rs
much gasoline when it goes fast as
when it goes at a moderate sped:
=. Were wax candles originally
made Of paraffinc?
.. Is an open winter with few Sc
we're storms better for winter wheat
than continuous cold?
4. Will an acre of water produce
as much food for man as an acre Of
land:
Answers to these questions may be
found:
1. Yes. A car uses more fuel TO
cover given amount of ground when
going fast than it does when going at
a moderate speed. because of the re-
sistance of the air, which is five times
as great at 10 miles an hour as it is at
20 miles an hour.
>. No. Wax candles were first
made of beeswax.
3. No. Alternate freezing and
thawing lifts the top soil and then
contracts it, breaking off the what
roots and pushing the young plants
out of the ground. A continuous cold
is less injurious.
4. No. According to fish culturists,
it is possible to raise more food for
man in an acre of water than on an
acre of land.

Advice to the
Lovelo1n
Does He Love Her?
By Beatrice Fairfax.
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:

DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
1 have known a young man fol
three years, and I am now in love
with him. He has never told me he
loves me, but two of his best friends
say that he told them he cares for me
Sometimes this young man acts like
lover. and other times like a mere
stranger.
He has never asked me to 60 out
with him. / don't go out very much
with other young men. as ] care for
none of them. Once when / was out
with n young man l was told that the
man / love asked him to keep away
from me. BUNNY.
There's no way of finding whether
man loves you, unless he proves his
love by asking you to be his wife.
Even his saying Il love you" does
not necessarily prove love, since mere
ly saying these words is easy.
The chances are, since he has
known you three years and hasn't
even asked you to go about with him,
that his interest in you is just that
of a friendly acquaintance. You'll
save needless heartbrcaks if you think
Of him as only an acquaintance-and
interest yourself in other young men
who are more devoted to you.

Some Pointers
on Manners
Paying for Wedding Supper.
By Mrs. Beeckman

DEAR MRS. BEECKMAN:
Should the bridegroom be the ono
to stand the expense of the wedding
supper and the bridal outfit?
=. When the brides father is not
living, and the mother has married
again, is it proper for the oldest son
to give the bride away?
A CONSTANT READER.
No! Indeed no! One of the un'
forgivable things in the world of eli
quette is for the bride to allow the
groom to pay for any Of the expenses
of the wedding, for which she or her
family is supposed to pay. For the
groom to buy the bridal outfit is n
gross breach of etiquette. Tho we'd
ding supper should be paid for by the
bride or her family.
The only expenses the groom bears
are: The engagement ring, the we'd
ding ring, wedding present TO the
bride, the brides bouquet, the mar
riage license, the fee for the clergy
man. the gift to the best man and each
of the ushers. besides their ties. gloves
and boutonnieres: the expenses of the
wedding trip. The groom also ar
ranges for the transportation of the
ushers and for the car that is to take
him and his best man to the church,
as well as for the one that is to take
the best man from the church to the
brides home for the reception.
.. Yes.

To my young mind there was almost

But times have changed-as you

either. We've heard them uttered by
some charmingly educated, beautifully

we've uttered them ourselves in mo-

mean that he's insisting on his natural

unadorned is the last thing Percy
wants. He wants all the benefits of
Observation-Disclosures and bunga-

THAT'S the world he considers n
much his as yours. And if you don't

Mutton Chops
Lyonnaisc Potatoes
Cauliflower
Tomato Salad
Baked Custard

For those of us who live in
bungalows or small apartments in
which are stoves without broilcrs the
best method of cooking chops is by
pan broiing. This is also the simp-
lest method. The chops are wiped
with n cloth wrung out of cold water
and any supcrfluouS fat removed.
A good plan is to heat an iron or
cast aluminium frying pan and sprinkle
1t with salt before the chops are put
in. They are then Drowned quickly
on one side, then the heat is lowered
slightly, the pan covered and the
chops cooked from S to 10 minutes,
according TO their size and thickness.
But if our stoves are equipped with
broilers We should by all means make
use of them. Usually the broiler pan
should be placed so that the rack
comes two and a hall OF three inches
from the flame. The rack is creased
with some of the fat cut from the
chops, the chops are placed on it and
put under the flame The burner
should be turned to its highest. As
soon rs the chops are Drowned on one
side they are turned and Drowned on
| the other. Mutton chops cut ABOUT
half an inch thick will require about
10 minutes broiling; thick chops cut
in the English fashion will need from
II TO 20 minutes and must be care
fully watched to keep them from burn
ing. The broiler door is closed during
the cooking.
Lyonnaisc Potatoes.
Three cups sliced cooked potatoes.
Four tablespoons fat.
-Four medium-sized onions.
One-half tablespoon minced parsley.
Salt.
Pepper.
Slice onions and cook in hot fat
until yellow. Add potatoes, season
with salt and pepper and cook slowly
until fat is absorbed. Place in serv-
ing dish and sprinkle with parsley.
Baked Custard.
Four eggs.
Onc-half cup sugar.
One-quarter teaspoon salt.
One quart milk.
One teaspoon vanilla.
Onc-eighth teaspoon nutmeg.
Heat milk in top Of double boiler.
Stir eggs, sugar and salt together

Meditations of

Ny Daughter. a woman is full ri

But that which man hath for
given is straight~ay forgotten and
his tongue no more repcatcth it.
Yet. the workings OF his heart arc
exceeding strange and who shall faith
ON his reasoning?
For 10, he will forgive woman for
making him suffcr-but never for
making him RIDICULOUS.
He will forgive her for turning a
gun upon him-but never for turning
the laugh" upon him.
He will pardon fer for driving him
TO torrents of jcalousy-but never for
being jealous of him.
He may forgive the woman who
hath sought to murder him--but never
the damscl who hath bcsought him to
MARRY her.
Tie may forgive her for making u
fool of herself over auother-but never
for being foolish over HIMSELF.
He will pardon her for accusing him
of that, of which he is not guilty
but never, for suspccting him of his
besctting sin.
He may condo,:c her for running
away from him-but never for run
ming AFTER him.
He may smile, when she calleth him
Il brute. a ruffian. and Don Juan
but. let her call him "goody-goody "
and behold he is filled with wrath.
He may forgive her for upbraidins
and denouncing him in private-but
never for correcting his FRENCH ac-
cent, before company.
Yea. verify. verify, man is reason
able and long-suffering and there is
nothing under the sun for which he
will NOT forgive a woman-save for
pursuing him. embarrassing him, and
BORING him!

MOSAECS FOUND IN
CASA GRANDE RUINS

The U. S. department Of the inter
ior reports the finding Of a cache of
prehistoric mosaic work in the Casa
Grande national monument, Arizona,
such as has never before been found
in the southwest.
The mosaics, discovered in repair
ing the walls of the prehistoric old
ruin of Casa Grande, show that the
artisanship of the prehistoric peoples
who once inhabited this region was
the equal Of any other southwestern
culture, and that it closely approaches
chat of modern times in beauty OF de-
sign and workmanship.
Three pieces of mosaic were found
two of them being in the form of birds
and the third representing turtle.
The largest bird is the best preserved.
This was made on a wooden core, with
the mosaics placed in the wax. Each
bit of stone had been worked out in a
pyramidal shape, and 492 stones were
used in the bird alone. The bird meas
ures about Az inches from wing-tip
to wing-tip, with a large piece of red
shell in the center to form a contrast
ing motif The turtle, which is the
largest design, is composed of 1923
stones.
With these mosaics were found set
of perfectly matched turquoise pend
ants and over 900 shell beads.

SAM E. DAY, OLD TIMER
OF ST. MICHAELS, DIES

News of the death of Sam E. Day
Sr., was received with sorrow by his
many old-tine friends in st. Johns,
especially in political circles. For
more than a quarter of a century he
had been the republican leader in the
St. Michaels district and served al
most continually as justice of the
peace. He was relied upon to keep in
touch with the county seat and he
never wavered in his loyalty and ac-
tivity in the interest of his friends.
He was born in Canton, Ohio and
came to St Michaels in 1881, where
he remained and led an active and
useful life up to the date of his death
on February 20. His funeral was held
at Gallup and was largely attended.
He is survived by his widow and
two sons. One of the sons, Sam E.
Jr., has been constable at St. Michaels
for many years and is well known in
st. Johns.-St. Johns Observer.

TO READVERTISE BIDS ON
WHITE SPAR HIGHWAY I

Granting the request of the state
highway department, the United
States bureau of public roads has au-
thorized the department to readver-
tise for bids for the construction Of
the Prescott-White Star highway, a
federal aid project.
The permission to readvertise for
bids came following the announcement
from the bureau that it had recon-
mended that federal aid be withdrawn
on the White Spar highway job for
the reason that the state Of Arizona
had rejected the low bid Of Schmidt
and Hitchcock. The state had pro-
posed to do the work with state forces
on the grounds that on private con-
tract work would be done by a len
labor.
It is reported that in advertising for
new bids the state will insist that bid
ders in figuring labor costs must COM
ply with the state labor laws.
The bid previously made by Schmidt
and Hitchcock was for $162,612, or
about $4,000 less than the cost esti-
mated by the state.

Death last week ended the long
vigil of Nero, dog who died on his
masters grave in lonely ceme

His owner, Charles Farmer, was
shot to death last July in a gun
fight with prohibition officers.
Nero followed the funeral process
sion to the cemetery where he kept
watch daily, only leaving the grave
at short intervals to secure food.
All efforts to coax the dog away
failed
Once humane officers were about
to shoot the dog when the ceme-
terry trustees stopped them.
Now a boulder marks the grave
of Nero.
Ministers Sunday in their SER
mons referred, just as they had II

COAL ONCE WAS KING
Early Days of Nome It Was More Precious Than Gold From Moun- tain Streams.

Nome, Alaska, March 20.--In the early days of Nome coal was more precious than the yellow metal banned from the mountain streams and on the Berlng Sea beach.
 The only places of business that had enough coal were saloons. An cldtimer prospector made a coat with a sack inside. Each evening he would go to the North Star Wine Palace" and sit down by the coal box. When no one was looking, he would place lump of coal in his sack, go to the bar for a drink, and return to his cabin. He did this un- til the proprietor. Pat Cleary, mo- ticed his coal supply dwindling. One night the prospector stayed too long and filled his sack too heavily so that when he tried to rise the weight dragged him down. Cleary bounced on him, made him disgorge the coal and drove him outdoors. |.
 Laughing heartily the saloon keeper called out: "Everybody step up, the drinks are on me. It's the first time anybody ever mined coal in Pat Cleary's camp"
