CHILDREN sometimes develop
~ troublesome likes and dislikes
regarding food as they reach the
age of eight or nine. There are
several reasons for this and one in
particular can be laid 10 their eld-
ers' door. Discussions about food
by older persons may do much to
influence young tastes. Conse-
quently opinions of grown-ups
should be carefully guarded"
At this age, too. mothers often
relax the constant supervision OF
their children's diet and the jun
iors are allowed TO eat about what
they please with the result OF
poorly balanced dietary.
II is not at all difficult TO plan
menus for children from eight TO
ten. They enjoy good food and
may be allowed large variety.
Most of the regulation adult meals
that are we'll balanced and sensible
are suitable for children.
One OF the best food habits to
establish early. If the meals are
we'll balanced and well cooked, is
that of eating some of every food
served. Even if the amount is very
small, the rule should be firmly
enforced. for this habit makes for
a balanced diet and develops
broader taste in later years. It's
almost impossible for the home
maker TO plan interesting and eco
nomical menus when there are
certain foods her family refuses to
eat. For example when summer
vegetables, either canned or ship
ped. must be used all winter in
place of the winter root vegetables.
there's a sameness about the win
ter and summer meals that dis
courages the appetite. Aside from
this. seasonal foods are always the
cheapest.
Variety Is Possible
The rule of a quart of milk
day continues to hold, but some Of
il may be used in cream soups,
creamed vegetables. desserts and
beverages. Tea and coffee should
not be permitted until the years
9f discretion" Meat. fish. eggs,
raw and cooked vegetables. raw
and cooked fruits, cereals and sim
pie desserts can be served in. great
variety
While It's OF utmost importance
that vitamins and minerals be
supplied in abundance. the calory
value of foods must not be over
looked. The amount OF food a

JOHN CAMERON
PLAYS PART IN
CLEVER DRAMA

The Woman's Ten Thousand
club has been fortunate in secur-
ing John Cameron TO play the part
Of Burke, the millionaire, in "One
of the Family" the clever drama
to be given March 10 and II at
Wilson school auditorium.
For some time the casting COM
mittee has been hunting for the
right person for the part with lit
tie success and Cameron's resonant
bass voice and brisk personality
seemed to belong to the part. FL
nally, TO the qualification OF
everyone, he has been prevailed
upon TO DO his bit toward the sue
cess of the performance.
Rehearsais are continuing with
enthusiasm this week and the third
act Of the play is being whipped
into shape under the capable di-
rection of Miss Greta Gould. This
act, though short, requires snappy
action that brings the humorous
situation reveloped in the play TO
a conclusion satisfactory to every
body.
The actors are now beginning TO
think about their costumes, which,
though modern, will afford con-
siderable opportunity to express
character. Some OF the gowns OF
rhe women players promise to be
charming. while others will aid in
the development of the humor of
the piece. Mrs. Forrest Kutz, who
is head Of the costume committee,
will see that all the details of dress
are suited to the parts portrayed.

EMILE GAIN,
JAP CLAIM
FOR DRIVE
international Area Shaken BY
Artillery Din; Chinese Ad-
nit KiangWan Loss
By DIXON HosTE

SHANGHAI, Feb. 29(I.N.S.).
The Japanese army, reinforced
by fresh troops, launched a
new offensive this afternoon
in an effort to drive the
Chinese out of the shell-bat-
tered Chapel district.
At 7:30 tonight, after several
hours of furious fighting, they
had made important gains, but
the Chinese were maintaining a
stubborn resistance.
On both the northern and
southern ends of the Chapel
Woosung battle front the Japa-
nese swung into action in an
encircling movement.
Press Past Kiangwan
To the north, reinforced
japanese divisions that had
finally onquered Kiangwan
pressed their advance past that
village across the fields for a
distance of nearly two miles.
They gained a foothold in the
village of Tachang, Japanese head
quarters claimed, preparatory for
a southwark movement against
Chapel.
The same Chinese troops that
had so heroically defended Kiang.
wan sharply counterattacked this
evening in an effort to throw
the Nipponese back upon the
hamlet.
They sent successive waves OF
infantry against the village of
ChenchiatSai but after an hours
fighting were forced to fall back
before heavy machine-gun fire.
BOmberS In Pursuit
The battle was so desperate at
this point that the Chinese in
some instances came to grips
with the machine-gunnerS and it
was only after reinforcementS
were rushed up that they were
beaten off.
Bombing planes pursued the
retreating Chinese, who, the Jap
aneSe claimed, were thrown into
panic.
On the southern end of the
fighting line the Japanese hurled
a newly arrived brigade from
Tokyo against the Chinese de,
fenses in Chapel to the accom-.
paniment of a terrific artillery
din that shook the International
Settlement.

SHANGHAI, Feb. 90 GN.S0.
When the League of Nations
Assembly meets in Geneva Thurs
day to consider the Sino-Japanese
conflict, Japan will have forces
totalling approximately 10000
men stationed in China, $1,000 of
them at Shanghai.
The infantry division which
left Tokyo simultaneously with
Gen. Yoshinori Shirakawa, mem
ber of the supreme war council
appointed by Emperor Hirohito
to succeed Gen. Kenkichi Uyeda

So for that reason Japan

around Shanghai, but every

Several days ago a we'll

There being no war on between
