New Haven, Aug 19.--A warn ing against an insect pest that is gradually creeping over the pine woods of this state, is issued by the Connecticut Agricultural Ex- pertinent Station in Circular 80, "The European Pine Shoot Moth.' The author is Dr Roger B. Friend, assistant entomologist, who has studied the life history of the in- sect and methods of controlling 1t.
 Fairfield county in particular is threatened with damage; infecta- tions of the pine shoot moth are increasing in red pine plantations of this section, according to ob- servations of Walter o. Filiey, sta ton forester.
 The pine shoot moth injures the pine by killing the buds and boring a short distance into the shoot. Ons larva may kill several buds Tn 2 cluster during the feeding period. The growth of red pine, wnich IS especially susceptible, may De permanently arrested, and Tn some instances the trunk of the tree is distorted.

 "The most practicable method of control is to cut off the infested shoots containing the insects and burn them" Dr Friend writes. aThis may be done any time be. tween the middle of August ana inc first of the following June, but it is better to do this before the larvae become active in the spring, as the insect is then destroyed pe- fore the maximum injury occurs
 "The presence of the larva IS indicated by masses of pitch on the buds, by a few dead needles at tne fin of the branch, and by the dead c,,rved buds.

 Giasgow.--If you ever visit the Island of Skye, off the west coast or Scotland, prepare to go to church on Sundays or your visit will be very short.
 The islanders are strict Sahba- tarians and have ruled that either visitors attend Sunday services or no lodgings will be granted them.
 The question of Sunday observ- ance was brought into the lime light last summer when Sunday ex- cursions were run by the railway company to the island despite rec peated protests of the natives. The isIanders, on the threatened boy colt of the railway, won, and this year there are no excursions to Skye.
 Services on the island generally last at least two hours. one hour for a sermon in English and one flor seriron in Gaelic. It ih ccnl- pulsory that church members re- main for both sermons.

piece of statuary, rare piece of
silver or pewter, fruit, even a ship
model may serve as center of at
traction.
On such occasions as harvest
festivals, Christmas or a patriotic
day, an appropriate centerpiece
may be devised which will be par
ticularly significant. A pumpkin,
or horn of plenty, filled with veg
etables, fruit and nuts; a winter
landscape, with a mirror laid flat
upon the table to represent lake,
cotton for snow and reindeer or
Santa; or devise of flags, tents,
and tin soldiers may stir the joy
and interest of those about the
board.
Candlesticks, if used for deeora-
ton, may grace the center Of the
table, or stand at the four corners
of the centerpiece, or one for each
two plates or there may be small,
individual candlesticks. IF ,short
candles are used, they should be
shaded for ornament and that they
will not shine directly into the
eyes. Tall candles are at present
in favor and they stand so high
that they do not need shades.

Making Garments Over

Before you decide to make over
a garment, examine the fabric to
assure yourself that it is worth it.
1t is pity to waste time and
effort remaking something which
will not give good wear afterward.
Consider, too, the cost of new ma
terial and the value of your time.
To test the strength of piece
of material, pull it lengthwise and
crosswise. Hold it up between you
and the light and see if it is more
worn than you realized. IF it is
worth making over you have the
style in your favor. This is to be
a season of great combination Of
goods and colors.
Take care, in making a garment
over, to change the places of wear.

Taking a Taxi

When arriving in a city, it is
sa,ar to take one of the regular
line of taxis rather than free
booter autos or cabs which are
without trade marks or distin-
gushing insignia by which they
are generally known as taxi-cabs.
Some taxi companies have GER
tain color or style of vehicle by
which all may recognize them.
The traveller may feel reasonably
sure that such an automobile is
4 bona fide taxi and not merely a
vehicle an adventurer has driven
to the station in which to pick
up someone. He may feel as
sured that the driver is reliable,
to a degree, for company in
good standing will employ only
such chaffeurs to drive its cabs.
On the street, it is safer to
take one of the taxis lined UP in
front of a reliable hotel, rather
than to hail a passing cab any
where on the highway. The tip,
usually expected by the doorman
in the hotel when he puts you in
cab, may be money well spent,
since it guarantees that the hotel
recognizes this as a good line of
taxicabs.
In reliable cab, one needs not
be alarmed if the driver goes out
OF his way and does not always
take the shortest and most direct
line to his destination. Such items
as torn up street, corner at
which ne dare not make a turn, a
rough pavement, or congested traf-
tic may make him deviate from the
route you would expect him to
take.

To use leisure time wisely, one
must know how to play. Many
people never learn that, or if they
know it in childhood, they soon
forget it and when they become
adults they know nothing to do in
spare time but to twiddle their
thumbs. Games, good reading,
music, hobbies, creative arts and
pleasure in comprehensive make
leisure times jolly as well as de-
velopmental.

Use better pieces for parts which
must endure the most strain. Cut
out the weak spots, if you can.
Adapt the style so completely
that the wearer will feel delighted
with the made-over garment and
not as though it were secondhand
or a substitute. Frequently a
made-over dress may be so attract
i've that it gives more joy in its
reincarnation than was ever felt
in its first life.

cup of raisins. While this sauce
is still boiling hot, add a table
spoon of softened gelatine, as for
any gelatine dish. When the dish
begins to thicken add half cup

firm, tip it out on a dish, upside
down; and garnish with whipped
cream for serving.

Easy DISTINGUISHING

Washing dishes is much easier
if there are two persons doing it.
They sing and play a game or
joke and have pleasant conversa-
ton together. For that reason it
is good stunt to pile up the
dishes for two meals and do them
when help comes to the rescue.

To Serve Tomatoes

The housewife who bears in mind
that the tomato is fruit, who has
the courage of her convictions and
an experimental turn of mind, can
vary her breakfast occasionally by
serving sliced tomatoes with sugar
and cream for the fruit course. The
tomatoes should have the skin re-
moved before sheing. Plunge them
into boiling water for the fraction of
a minute, slip the skins off, and chill
the tomatoes SO that they may regain
their firmneSs before you slice them
If tomatoes and cream seem too
great an innovation. try mixing them
with sliced peaches. The two flaw
ors blend delieiously.
Tomatoes may appear i'm more con
servative form at the other meals Of
the day. Tomato juice cocktail IS
an appetizer served nowadays IN
many homes that are determined to
give Prohibition d sporting h.uee
ANY housewife may make the ingt
dients at home. Flavor canned to-
matoes with salt to taste. little
sugar and onion iniee if wanted, heat

may even get kick" out of it,

and served with maYonnaise dressing
as a salad.
1t is probably ut the salad course
that the tomato appears most often
upon our tables. Lettuce and to-
mato salad" is he one most often
ordered in American restaurants.
We feel we cannot go wrong there.
And fortunately the dietician APP
plauds our choice. But the house
wife will find that tomatoes are good
served with many other kinds of sal
ad greens. Crisp lomaine and quar-
tered tomatoes with French dressing
is an excellent combination. The
peppery spiciness of watercress
makes it a refreshingly different ac-
compartment for tomatoes.
As for more elaborate WAYS OF
serving tomatoes, the range is prae.
tically limitless. The tomatoes may
be scooped out and filled with chop.
ped celery or anp,es, with csd diced
chicken or veal. with crahmeat or
shrimp or lobster
Tomatoes help to make more palaa-
table many of the meatless meals
which should be served during the
warm weather. Their flavor is just
the thing to cut the monotony of the
farinaceous foods. The sauce par
excellence to use with spaghetti Is
tomato sauce, as the Italians very
we'll know. Maearoni baked with to
matoes instead Of with milk, topped
with grated American cheese, makes
a well-balanced dish. Rice and toma
toes is another good combination.

Beauty Advice

If your face is not pretty do not
despair but do as a certain popular
young society leader did. Make
much of your hands and feet and
dress. A pair of beautifully kept
hands takes the attention from ones
face and holds the admiring eye.
A well shod foot will do the same
and a becoming gown can do Won
ders. Even the ugly woman, II
there BE- one, need not despair II she
will make the most of other points
CHRIS: Begin brushing your hair
at once. Go over the entire scalp
every day and in months time
you will notice a great improvement
in the tone of your hair. Brush
until you feel the scalp tingle. Brush
upward to lift the hair free of the
scalp.
