Menus for tie Family
BY SISTER MARY

Breakfast - Fresh plums, cereal, cream, crisp broiled bacon with tomatoes, graham toast, milk, cof- fee.
 r Luncheon - Nodded salmon sal ad, rye bread, apple tapioca pudding with lemon sauce, milk, tea.
 Dinner - Mutton chops, riced po- tatoes, new turnips in cream, orange salad, blackberry sorbet, cocoanut cup cakes, milk, coffee. The custom of including finger bowls with the fruit service for breakfast will save many a stained napkin. While fresh fruit stains will usually disappear if boiling water is poured through them before laun- dering. occasionally napkin is overlooked and the stain disfigures it for months. If the fingers are dipped into water after the fruit course and gently "dabbed" across the lips before using the napkin all danger of stain is removed.

Nadge Feels Herself Drifting Away

Nadge Feels Herself Drifting Ava,
 from Dicky
 My mother-in-law gave me no op- portunity to reply to her astonishing littel speech. even if l had possessed the breath to voice an answer. With quick steady footsteps she went swiftly out of the room. and the glimpse of her face which I had caught as she turned away from me. told me that the greatest boon l could give her was silence.
 So she had guessed then-this re- markable. keen-sighted old woman the thing which I had been at such pains to keep secret from her, and about which I even had tried to deceive myself. She not only guessed. but knew, that I was not even trying to fan the embers of my love for my husband to life. but was doggedly trying to turn them to the ashes they were simu- lating.
 For though I knew that my love for my husband was not wholly dead-the quick, stabbing. foolish pain of jealousy which had felt at his admiration for Eleanor Lincoln had told me that, yet it was my con- clusion, arrived at after weeks of introspection, illuminated with mem ories of Dicky's awful doubt of me when Grace Draper tried to poison him, and cunningly contrived that I should appear to be guilty of the attempt-that I should be- rot happier-but calmer, more at peace, when the last vestige of love for my husband had vanished.
 Not that I ever meant to break the pact of outward amity that we had made. For Juniors sake-to give our boy the home with both parents, apparently friends. in it which is the riglItful heritage of every child-I meant to go on, un- til the boy. grown man, would no longer need us. But l wished daily that I could be freed from the un- rest which my still lingering love of my husband brought me, and be given the peace of absolute indiffer- ence to him.

had not meant that Dicky's mother ever should discover my feelings, however, and 1t was with poignant regret that l saw her go away from my room, pathetic figure, kept erect I knew through sheer will-power.
 There was nothing to be said or done, however. l knew that she would not refer to the subject again. and l knew also that any attempt of mine to deceive her by pretend ing feeling for Dicky which did not exist would be not only, useless but cruel.
 Glad, indeed, was I. therefore. that the necessity for immediate action was able to banish all un- pleasant thoughts from my mind. l hurried downstairs and out to the veranda where Noel and Mary were playing game of two-handed bridge, with far more attention to each others faces than to the cards.
 Sorry to interrupt the game" I said, and indeed l was loath to dis turb them, but inekplicably I had a distaste for an interview alone with Eleanor Lincoln.
 Mary cooked questioning eye at me, and then threw down her hand and gathered the cards on the table into a pile.
 Credit me with clairvoyance," she said saucily. You want us to go somewhere with you"
 You are eminently correct, my pretty young seer" I returned. T am going down to The Larches, to ask Miss Lincoln to come to dinner night. and I would like to have you both come with me-"
 Noel rose with alacrity, and saw Mary's eyes narrow, while over Ter expressive face fitted a frown. I was sure that the lads quickness of action had resulted from his de- sire to be courteous to me, but it was plain that Mary's jealousy had translated it as a wish to see Miss Lincoln.

 The Massachusetts department of health for three years has been try ing to determine the relationship of underWeight to disease, and to complete ten-year program point ing toward the building up of strong citizens.
 Fifty thousand children have been examined, the examination in- cluding weighing and measuring, the recording of the temperature, and careful study of the nose, throat and lungs. If suspicious signs were found. additional ex- aminations, including the tuber- culin test and N-rays of chest, were made.

 It was found that city children and country children were about equal in the observations made in this investigation. Furthermore, the amount of tuberculosis in boys and girls was about the same, al- though many more girls at the ages of 12 to 15 were found to be under weight and to have tuberculosis in the glands near the lungs than did secy. css the saE.e e-.,

SCHOOL BOARD HONORS
 R. ]. VANCE'S MEMORY
Calls New Unit of Educa- tion System Robert J.
 Vance School

The late Robert Johnstone Vance, one of the pioneer publish CTS of Connecticut, former mayor, congressman. city clerk, labor com missioner and founder of the New Britain Herald, was singularly hon. ored yesterday afternoon when the board of education unanimously voted to name the new school at Vance street and Shuttle Meadow avenue the Robert J. Vance school.
 Not single voice spoke in op- position to the move at the meet ing when the special committee consisting of Mrs. Fife G. kimball, Joseph M. Halloran and Henry T. Burr brought in the recommenda- tion.
 MT. Vance died on June Is. 1902, after a notable career. Since the early days in the city his career was one of continued success. At the age of 22 years he founded the New Britain Observer. About 10 years later the paper was consoli- dated with the New Britain Her aid. While still retaining his posi- ton as editor of the Herald he was political editor of the New York Sun.
 An ardent democrat he was a member of the state central commit tee and was a delegate to national conventions on several occasions. Party ties were discarded in 1878 when he ran for city clerk with the result that he was carried into of flee by a large majority.
 He continued in the office for nine years, his nomination being equiva- lent to election until he was elected to the general assembly. In 1886 he served as state labor commissioner. He was member Of congress in 1887 and 1888 and in 1896 he was elected mayor of New Britain.

By tho Associated Press.
 Shanghai, goal of the Cantonese or nationalist armies, apparently again is threated by the sudden and unexpected defeat of the forces of Marshal Sun Chuan-Fang. defender of the city. on the southern battle front.
 Hangchow. capital of Chekiang province, is in imminent danger of falling before the southerners who have recaptured Chuchow. Reports of assertions to the Cantonese ranks are in circulation.
 Refuses Kellogg's Plan.
 Marshal Sun has declined to ac- cept Secretary Kellogg's proposal to exempt Shanghai from the war area. Two additional battalions of British Punjabi troops have arrived at Shanghai.
 The situation in the north Of China grew steadily more compli- cated as Marshal Chang Tso-Lin with his Manchurian troops and his ally General Chang Tsung- g-Chang of Shantung pushed on into the prov ince of Honon, now occupied by the allied northern troops
 No word has come from Marshal Wu Pei-Fu, nominal master of Honan, as to whether he will per- init the Manchurians and Shan tungese to continue through Honan toward the nationalist controlled city of Kiukiang.
 120,O00 Men Massed.
 Feng Yu-Hsiang. potential ally of the nationalists, is reported to have massed 100000 men preparatory to resuming his drive on Honan which was stopped by the northerners last December.

 Like WindstOrm

Denver, Colo, Feb. 16 (UP)- Fifty members of the Idaho Springs Elk lodge. who had been trapped in a blizzard on Berthoud pass, 11,o0o feet high in the Rocky mountains, were safe today.
 The party had intended to go to the Moffat tunnel for lodge initia- ton and celebration of the tunnel opening. The blizzard. however. swept down when the automobiles were crossing Berthoud pass. The temperature fell to far below zero.
 Fifteen men and six teams to buck the drifts were sent from the west portal of the mine when the Elks did not arrive on time. The 12 miles of highway between the tunnel entrance and Berthoud pass was blocked in man~ places by drifts Of snow several feet high.
 Storms in the mountains brought a freak windstorm to Denver. Al thoug0 the thermometer did not fall and the sun did not cease shining. the wind assumed almost the velocity of a gale Part of the bleachers at the city baseball park were wrecked. sign boards were blown over and awnings were ripped.
 Thirteen fire alarms were turned in during one hour when the wind was at it's peak. All of the fires werc caused by sparks carried from chimneys. They were extinguished before serious damage resulted.
 Wreckage from the ball park was blown into Broadway, Denver's prin- cipal thoroughfare. Traffic was blocked temporarily.

PLAY, THE CAPTIVE
 IS TO BE WITHDRAWN
So Will Sex" and "The Virgin Man," Broad
 way Hears

New York. Feb. 1S P-Shortly before time for the legal curtain to rise on 9 court room matinee" of The Captive" one of three plays raided in last weeks stage cleanup campaign, producers of the produc- cided it would be "unwise and inn polite" to continue the run of the play.
 The cases of Sex" and "The Vir- gin Man" are already held under bail for hearing in special sessions and yesterday Magistrate Renaud ruled that the 12 members of "The Cap tive" cast must appear for arraign- ment today despite the fact that this would necessitate cancellation of a S2.50O matinee performance.
 Three hours before time for the court hearing Gilbert Miller. man. aging director for the Charles Froh- man company. producers of "The Captive" issued statement an- nouncing cessation of production.
 He based the decision on strong criticism in some quarters" but re- iterated his belief that the play was a fine production. worthy of the best traditions of the stage and as- serted that the authorities had been grossly unfair to class The Cap tive with plays of less distinguished character"
 He denied reports that the Froh- man concern was negotiating with any other producer to take over the play.
 Sex" and "The Virgin Man" are continuing production while the courts consider their cases.
 Miller said that at today's court matinee" Magistrate Renaud would be requested to drop the complaint against members of "The Captive" cast In return for voluntary with drawal of the play after tonight performance.
 Shortly after announcement that "The Captive" would close 1t was in dicated that both "Sex" and "The Virgin Man" would also withdraw to forestall prosecution.
 The motions for permanent in- functions restraining the police from interfering with the latter plays were marked on the call of the clerks calendar today as adjourned until tomorrow and 1t was an- nounced that affidavits would be presented to the court by the pro- ducers this afternoon.
 It was said unofficially that in connection with the filing of these affidavits an offer would be made by the producers to halt the plays if the criminal proceedings were dropped. It was said that this ac- tion would be taken to meet the pro- test of the actors In the two casts that they were being made the vic tins of situation for which they were not responsible.
