NOTICE TO ANNoUNCERs:

recent edct to the referee staff ordered the prompt stopping of any bout between amateur boxes wherein the contestants appeared poorly matched liable to injury Despite the fact that the referees merely carrying out instructions of the State Athletic Commission the action of the spectators has been many unfavorab to the ring official
 The purpose of the order twofold; to force tho matchmaker through repeated soppngs of matches to be more careful in his matchmaking and to guard the boxers against possible injury.
 The commissioner feels that if the spectator raized that these instructions meant for the good of all cerned the unjust criticism of the referee would The boxers and fans alike would be protected and the commits sion convinced that 1t has taken step for the betterment of the amateur sport
 With view toward encouraging the support and CO., operation of the spectator the commission will require the announcer at all future shows to appoint the fan with the fact that the referee under instructions to stop all isfactory bouts There is question but that this will result in better matches and protection for the boxers

Druid Lore.

DEOPLE in some parts Of Ireland
L speak of Halloween as "The
Vigil of Saman," and that strange
name takes us far back in history, to
a time before the Irish turned to the
Christian faith.
Saman, In the old Irish lore, was
Lord of Death, and 1t was believed
that once each year he called evil
spirits back to earth. When those
spirits returned, 1t was supposed that
they might bring i'll fortune to peo-
pie on earth. Very likely the olden
custom Of lighting bonfires on Hal
loween night was due to an effort
to guard against demons. The fires.
in q way, stood for sunlight, which
drives away darkness.
In Ireland. as well as in England,
Scotland and Wales, the early folk
followed the lead of priests known
as "druids." These priests made their
homes in forest huts and in caves.
So far as we know, they had no
covered temples. but often went into
the midst Of q grove of oak trees to
offer prayers, at noon or at midnight
They knew a little, but not much,
about the stars, and something about
medicine.
Halloween was set aside by the
druids as a time when magic and
charms might be used. The ancient
Romans also had much to do with
the starting of Halloween: but there
seems to be clear proof that it was
observed by the people Of the British
Isles before Roman soldiers conquered
England.
Many boys and girls have thought
of Halloween as a time for making
mischief" This idea has passed to
some extent; and hope that. as the
years 60 by, we shall all realize that
it Is not good sport to do harm to
any one.
In hundreds Of homes, and in some
schools, 1t Is a custom to hold Hal
loween parties. II they are we'll
planned, and If those who attend keep
the right spirit, the parties bring
great deal Of enjoyment.
Many public libraries have books
which tell ways of making ready for
a Halloween party. In addition to
nut-cracking and "bobbing for apples, :"
there may be games Of many kinds.
An amusing game Is called "the
broom dance" There should be an

Suitability
BY EMILY POST.

"DEAR MRS. POST: viii you please
tell me whether . guest may
wear q black dress at an evening
wedding and reception?"
Answer: Yes; particularly in the
evening, when the lower cut of the
dress naturally detracts from its pos
sible soinberness. II you feel that the
effect has to be frightened, add
little color in your bag and jewelry.
MY Dear Mrs. Post: I am In the
late thirties, but marrying for the
first time. Is there an age limit placed
on brides who may wear white and the
traditional veil?"
Answer: There is no age limit, but
O lace veil would be more appropriate
than tulle, much, and cream much
more becoming to a not-so-young
skin than white, which has tendency
to exaggerate every fiaw-that Is, II
there are any flaws.
Dear Mrs. Post: May I wear q
brown chiffon velvet dress to be mar
ried in and keep it on for travelling
after the ceremony"
Answer: Chiffon velvet does not
sound very practical for travelling, but
its suitability would depend upon the
effect OF the material. Some Of the
modern velvets in very small dots or
checks do not suggest the formaIity
Of velvet. Even so, q dress of silk
crepe or lightweight wool, with a be-
coming hat and coat to 60 with 1t,
would be much more useful-at least.
SO it seems to me.
MY Dear Mrs. Post: forgot to ask
you in a previous letter whether it is
proper for q bride and her attendants
to smile at their friends on their way
to the altar"
Answer: No one in the wedding
party looks right or left while walking
toward the altar, but on the way out
of church, when all are inclined to
look happy, they naturally smile,
should they catch the eyes of intimate
friends in the congregation. This does
not mean that those in the occasional
should greet people right and left as
though they were at party.
Dear Mrs. Post: I have q sealskin
coat, which I would like to have
made into another for my 14-year-old
daughter. Is Ia too young for a fur
coat?"
Answer: Not too young for a country
type Of coat. but seal Is rather dis
tinctly town fur. 1t would be bet
ter, I think, to keep the coat for her
until she is older-that is, If she has
anything to wear in the meantime.
