Rome June R-President Hoover is regarded as a kind of god by Tibetan tribes. Professor Nichol- as Roerich, artist who lives in New York. told the Associated Press to- day on his return to civilization from five yeas of travel in India. Tibet and Mongolia.
 President Hoovers work seems to have filtered by word of mouth into Tibet, where he is looked upon as a supernatural and beneficient being.
 MT. Roerich said the name Hoover" had been distorted by the Tibeans into "koovera" which is their name for the god of happi- ness. He found an old picture of Mir. Hoover taken many years ago. enshrined in a Tibetan house.
 Henry Ford is also considered a semi-divinity. MT. Roerich declared.
 The Tibetaas seemed to me to be an European race rather than Asiatic. Their graves and tom bs have exactly the same formation as those in Greece. Carnac. France and in England. Their features are dis tinctly European"

 The speaker told of the evolution of the amendment and of the diff culty which might be encountered if an effort is made to strike it out.
 Despite this anticipation, Attorney Peck declared it was time for the legal fraternity to give serious con- sideration to the importance of the prohibition act in the country's le- gal system. and take definite stand either for its strict enforcement or its repeal.
 During the evening reference was made to the Connecticut bar exam- ming committee ruling against can- didates for admission to practice, from F'ordham, New York university and Brooklyn law schools. The sen- tment among the lawyers appeared decidedly in opposition to the rul- ing and Attorney Pierce. one of the oldest practicing lawyers in New England, observed that "a while agu in New York any man with s could enter the bar-now one who studies at night is not good enough.

Blouse of Metal Weave Is Liked

which Is at the present moment so
outstanding in the winter mode For
the blouse herewith illustrated, the
designer chooses the lovely silver met

heavier weaves are ignored for both

In fact some of the smartest metallics
take on almost a lace-like appear
ance Printed gold and silver cloth
is the dernier cri of the formal fab
ric mode. 1t is used for evening
wraps, for the frock entire, as well as
for the afternoon blouse.
To those who prefer to merely sug-
gest the metallic note, the new moires
shot with gold or silver are making
very special appeal. Then there are
the handsome satin brocades which
also include a patterning of gold and
silver interweavings. Net embroid-
cred with gold or silver dots is very
charming for the blouse.
Milliners as well as dressmakers
are subscribing to the metal vogue,

sembles made up of blouse and
chapeau fashioned of handsome metal
lie weaves, the same to be worn with

"Ice Well" Will Solve
Refrigerator Problem


On hot sultry days next summer the
farmer and his family will be chasing
the butter around the dish with a
spoon unless some sort Of refrigera-
ton system has been installed on the
farm.
Where the usual cooling systems are
TOO expensive or otherwise impractic-
able the "ice well" may solve the prob
lem, especially on farms in the North.
This unique cooling system is de-
scribed briefly as 'hole In the
ground in which large solid cake
of ice is formed by running In a small
quantity of water daily during freez-
ing weather." A small house over the
pit serves as milk house through the
summer. Cans Of milk and cream are
lowered to the ice through a trapdoor
In the floor.
Dairy officials Of the United States
Department cf Agriculture constructed
and tested an ice well at the depart
ment's dairy field experiment station
at Mandan, N. OAK, last season and
report highly satisfactory results for
that region. Freezing was started In
January. By the end of February there
was block of ices feet square by 6k
feet deep. Meat, fruit, and vegetables,
as well as milk and cream, kept per-
fectly. Cream was kept in a perfectly
sweet condition for IA days during
July. the hottest part of the summer.
The ice lasted until well into October.
The ice-well method has been used
to some extent in Canada. The south.
ern limit of its adaptabiIity in the
United States has not been determined
as yet.

back to help them maintain good pos
ture. Sometimes plain, strong table al
ready In the house can be cut down TO
answer the purpose. If need be, lit
tie paint or enamel will brighten it up
and make it easier to keep clean. Lit
tie children at times spill their food.
Since this must be accepted as cheer
fully as possible during the period
when they are learning to feed them
washable.
When children eat apart from the
adults there are fewer distractions.
The fact that grownups sometimes
have different foods from those served
the children passes unnoticed. If there
is maid or some one else who can
serve the children quietly and efficient
ly apart from the family, they may
have their meals at the family meal
hours, but most mothers find 1t more
convenient and less distracting to the
children TO give them their meals
about half an hour before the other
members of the household. The i'm
portant thing, says the bureau of home
economics of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture, Is that the chill
dren's meals should come at regular
time, with well-spaced intervals, and
with due regard for the schedule for
nap. bath. exercise. and bedtime.
Part of the mothers responsibility is
to see that the food offered the chill
dren looks appetizing, is well cooked.
and served at suitable temperature.
A burnt tongue from food that Is too
hot Is an unfortunate accident, and
foods that are cold when they should
be eaten hot are equally unsatisfactory
for making a meal success. Wheth-
er the mother cooks the child's food
personally, or has some one else do it,
she should make certain that every
dish on the menu Is properly prepared
and served. Lumpy cereal, scorched
cocoa, or stringy vegetables, may he the
starting point of a food dislike. even
in very young child. Food should
never be used as a carrier of medi-
cine. as when castor Oil is given in
orange Juice. Orange juice is so nee
essary in the child's daily diet that
the enjoyment of 1t should not be
spoiled. Make the setting of each
meal attractive, the food good to look
at and to eat, and the child will have
a good appetite and good digestion.
