GROUND HOG MYTH
 IS KEPT ALIVE
But Ought to Be Let Die,
 Weatherman Says

New Haven. Feb. 2 P|The ground hogs in Connecticut were out for a jaunt today in spring-like weather and their wanderings were besides babbling brooks where pussy willows were pushing out the first white tips on their buds. Most of them would have needed search warrants to find a snow bank on which to cast their shadow from the sun which shone in cloudless sky.
 "A mighty fine mid-winter's day" said Leonard M. Tarr, U. S. weather forecast observer.
 That ground hog Idea? Nothing to it. absolutely nothing. Say, why can't you fellows let that myth die and give 1t decent, everlasting burial?"

Many families were driven from

1t is quite likely that the Hankow
British Cantonese agreement had
something to do with the prompt
British action here. In British opin-
ion, Britain's national prestige, badly
hurt by the Hankow expulsion In
January. received another wound In
the recent Chen.O 'Malley agreement
by which the British gave up the
Hankow concession. The concession
was returned to them temporarily,
and this damaged British pride. More
over, the Hankow agreement is ex-
pected to have an immediate echo In

Great Britain cannot afford to lose

Just now interest centers about the

satin. For her autumn afternoon
frock that charming screen actress,
Barbara Worth, chooses satin in this
very shade. The picture herewith
shows Miss Worth gowned to perfec-

the exquisite simplicity of this little

AT luncheon and afternoon tea the

of black crepe satin made along con-

frequently developed with slightly

times caught with metal ornament.
Not infrequently one glimpses a
beige satin frock in the assemblage of
society's fairest. A bit of gold in the

usually shines resplendentiy forth on
either the beige or black satin gown.

Train the Children
Not to Waste Food

Family prejudices about foods may
defeat the most earnest efforts to set
an economical table. Sensible train.
ing when children are little will pre-
vent the formation of many of these
prejudices. Even if adults do have
faulty food habits, they can often be
reasoned out of them.
Get everybody in the family to see
the need for economy and to recognize
the fact that no good food should he
wasted after it once enters the kitchen.
The high cost of the table is sometimes
traceable to the full garbage pail. Ad-
nit that some flavors are more tempt
ing than others, but convince the fam.
lily that there is now such wide vari.
ETY. of acceptable fiavors that each one
can be pleased large part of the
time. Show them that in selecting
foods in the market you have to be
guided by what is available, by what
will be different from yesterdays
menu. and tomorrow's, too, and most
important of all, by what will make
up balanced diet.
