'AREN' 7 We ALL
NEXTPLAY Of THE
LITTLE THEATRE
WeII-KnOWn Comedy Opens
March 29 at the Play. 4
house. J#l

A number of amusing characters
provided with witty lines make
aren't We All" one of the funniest
comedies which the Little Theatre
has produced this season. 1t win be
given at the Playhouse beginning
March 20 for five nights under tho
direction Of George Somnes.
A short resume of its airy plot Is
this. The Honorable Willie latham,
truly loving young husband, Is
discovered by his wife, Margot, on
her unexpected return from Egypt,
in the act of bestowing a kiss on a
very beautiful young lady. Willie
has lent his house to friend for
the purpose of holding a party one
evening and the beautiful young .
lady is one Of the guests who hasv
sought refuge from boredom by en-.
gaging Willie in mild filtration
and involved him to the extent Of
the kiss, which in fairness to Willie,
was not altogether willingly given.
But Willie's attempts at explanation
to Margot are futile. She lapses in.
to the role of injured wife and not all
the visiting latham relatives can
bring peace to the household.
Then steps in Willies sire, Lord
Grenham, gay, cynical, fond of
filtration himself. He looks on Will
lies detection with tolerance
which his own philanderings have
ingrained in him. 1t is Lord Gren.
ham who discovers that Margot's
sudden return from Egypt has been
her desire to escape becoming en-
tangled in love affair with a pleas
ant young man which n perfect
Egyptian night, big moon and SEN
timental music have led her into.
Margot's role of injured wife immed-
lately assumes a. humorous aspect.
SO the play winds on merrily to a
fitting finish and 1t is not until the
last line that the meaning of its
rather cryptic title is dlvulged.

WHAT is MARKETING!

Marketing consists Of all those
services necessary in getting goods
from the producer to the consumer,
such service as assembling, grading,
packing, transportating, financing
storing, insuring, risk bearing, and re-
tail distribution. Cooperative mar
keting has received much attention
as a means of improving agricultural
marketing by reducing the number OF
people engaged in performing the
marketing services. When producers
or consumers link themselves togeth-
er to perform these services them
selves, they will find the profits pro-
viding only that they are as efficient
in performing these services as the
best of the middlemen. In other words
cooperative marketing organizations
are in competition with men and wo-
men who have made their business
to make money performing some SER
vice in connection with getting raw
product to it's consumer in the shape
in which the consumer wants it. Co.
operatives cannot and should not be

COURSE GIVEN FOR
LAMP ADJUSTERS
HEADLIGHT TESTING WILL BE.
GIN EARLY IN NEW YEAR. EN-
FORCEMENT TO BE URGED BY
LOCAL OFFICERS.

A two day school for applicants
for appointment as automobile lamp
adjusters will be held at Dunwoody
Institute, Minneapolis, January % and
"a. Notices of the course are being
mailed to all who have applied for
appointment. If a sufficient number
indicate that they would prefer to
take the course elsewhere, two day
courses will be arranged at limited
number of other places.
An evening course for applicants
will also be given at the Dunwoody
Institute beginning January 81, and
continuing until the equivalent of two
full days instruction is given. AS soon
as sufficient number of adjusters
have qualified, the State Highway
department will begin designating
lamp adjusting stations and will be
prepared to put into effect the pro-
visions of the 1927 law for the test
ing and adjusting of head lamps.
The Gazette has been requested to
emphasize that the new law gives the
department no power to enforce the
head light law, or to arrest or prose-
cute person driving with dazzling
or glazing head lights. The enforce
ment of the law is left, as formerly,
in the hands of the county and local
peace officers. The trouble with the
old law, however, was that there was
no uniform standard by which it could
be determined which lights did or
did not comply with the law. The
testing stations which will be estab-
lished in all parts of the state under
the new law, will make it possible to
determine quickly and easily if any
headlamps are legal or not. The law
provides that any person arrested on
charge of using improperly adjust
ed lamps shall be given forty-eight
hours to have them adjusted or to pro-
duce certificate that they have been
tested and found correct.
A committee of which Prof. F. w.
Springer of the University of Min
nesota was chairman, has devoted
several months to study and research
and devised a plan by which all des-
ignated testing stations will have a
uniform, standard method of testing
and adjusting headlamps so that they
comply with the law and eliminate
glare.
The Minnesota law, it is pointed
out, does not require dimming lights.
Safe driving, it is held, requires
lights which will illuminate the road,
and the law requires that the lamps
be adjusted so that the main beam

CHE WHY of
SUPERSTITIONS
By H. IRVING KING
PARSLEY

TN SOME sections Of the country 1t
i is considered most unlucky to re-
plant old parsley in the garden-that
lis to set out parsley root which you
have had growing in a box in the
house all winter-as it endangers the
life of the head Of the family. AL
ways sow. fresh seed. This super
stition we inherit, along with parsley
itself, from the days when Greece and
the gods were young together. Pars-
ley was an indigenous plant in Greece,
growing wild and with special pro-
fusion in Argolis, where was the vale
of Nemea, in which stood the temple
OF Nemean Zeus, and where Hercules
killed the Nemean lion.
Parsley-possibly from its avail
ability in making wreaths and gar
lands for his shrine-appears to have
come to be regarded in the valley as
the specially favored plant of Nemean
Zeus, and so when, some five hundred
years before the Christian era, the
Nemean games were instituted in
memory of a local young hero, Ar
chemorus, who died from the bite Of a
serpent as the expedition Of THE Sew
en- Against Thebes" was passing
through the place-a crown Of wild
parsley was the reward Of the victor.
Now wild parsley being dedicated
to such purposes was naturally pro-
tected: probably the penalty for the
proclamation Of roofing 1t up was death.
And here we get the modern super
stition that the planting of an old
parsley root in the garden is likely to
cause the death of the head Of the
family. Only three columns Of the
temple of Nemean Zeus remain stand
ing; yet many man today hesitates
to plant an old parsley root in his gar
den, and you will find in many of the
modern books of Dreams and Omens'
a warning against doing so.
