The next few Sundays will prove rather conclusively whether or not the American public has a real liking for classical music, a Ques- tion which caused much acrimoni- ous debate, during the alst few years. A vast majority Of listep- CTS set their dials for the stations of the three major nets, NBC's blue and red and CBS. All three. beginning Sunday, will have a sdlid hour of classical music on the air from sto g..
 NBC-WJZ (the, blue chain) will continue with its symphony con certs. while CBS will ditto with the Ford symphony. Succeeding the Eddie Cantor. Rubinoft coffee show will be a new opera program SO minutes of famous operas. con densed and translated into Eng fish.
 Looked at practically, it's just another instance of poor program ming, for there are thousands who have already been complaining that they'd like to hear both Sun day night symphonies, but can't since they're both on the air at the same time. Now with the poera program on. simultaneously, their rancor will be tripled.
 As for the many, many, many who, for one reason or another, like their entertainment light, our guess is that they'll listen to the opera programs for week or two to see how good they are. and then, if the full hour program doesn't live up to their expectations they'll go hunting over the dials for in- dependent stations which hay @ dance music, popular songs CT comedy on the air.
 Then, again, perhaps with noth- ing else to pick from, the public may learn to like the classics. Wei" give odds that the latter won't happen.

Wooster was found trying to get in to the cellar about 4:15 this morning by Officer Martin Garrick.

Evon on complaint Saturday at the corner of Main and Maple streets. Evan testified Breda was under the influence and staggered somewhat although driving slowly and stop ping at the walk light. Sergeant John Gormley also testified Breda was under the influence of liquor. Attorney William Kingston, coun- sel for the accused, attempted to show malice might have inspired the complaint but Judge Claremont I. Tolles who presided, refused to allow the name of the complainant to be mentioned, stating this was a practice of the local court to pro- tect complainants. Breda was put on probation and if Probation Otti- cer William Nixon sees fit, part of the fine may be suspended by next July. Costs amounted to $12.26.
 Edward Clark of II May street and Rudolf Valentine of A High street were each found not guilty of reckless driving.

Some are trying to arrange a special bus now but whether enough will be secured re- mains to be seen.

BEDTIME STORY FOR CHILDREN
By THORNTON w. BURGESS

When Peter found him he was sit
ting with all his feathers fluffed out
until he looked almost like ball with
a head and tail. He looked positively
sleepy. When he caught sight of Peter
he drew those feathers down tight,
cooked his tail up after the manner
of Jenny Wren, and was as slim and
trim looking as any bird of Peters
acquaintance. He didn't look at all
like the same fellow Of the moment
before. Then he dropped his tail as
if he hadn't strength enough to hold 1t
up. 1t hung Imply straight down. He
dropped his wings. and all in sec
ond made himself look fairly disrep-
utable. But all the time his eyes were
twinkling and swapping, and Peter
knew that he was making these
changes just out of pure fun.
did you pass pleasant winter
down south?" asked Peter.
"Fairly SO. Fairly So" replied Kit
ty. by the way, picked up some
new songs down there. Would you
like to hear them?'
"Of course" replied Peter. "But !
don't think you need any new songs.
1 never heard such a fellow, except
ing Mocker and Mockingbird, for
picking up other peoples songs"
Kittys' throat swelled and he began
to sing. 1t didn't seem as If so many
notes could come from one throat.
When the song ended Peter had
question all ready. "Are you going
to build somewhere near here?" he
asked.
81 certainly am" replied Kitty. Mrs.
Catbird and expect to build at once"

To Disguise the
Taste Of Milk
Beverage May Quickly Be
Favored for Those
Who Desire It.

Milk, the natural nourishment for
babies, continues to be an important
part Of their diet for several years,
and Is used in one form or another
during all the years of a life. Most
children like to drink milk, but occa-
sionally child is found who actually
dislikes the taste of it. 1t may be
that the child was forced to drink
1t when his appetite was satisfied,
and ever after, the memory of that
time presents itself, when a glass of
milk is set before him. 1t may be
that the flavor of milk given the child
to drink during and after weaving
was distasteful compared with moth
er's milk. Sometimes the change of
milk causes an upset system, and
milk ever thereafter actually dis
agrees with the child.
There are adults whose systems re-
act unfavorably to milk, and while
these are isolated cases, they exist,
and 1t is not purely notion that
they cannot drink milk. So small a
group are these, however, that it
does not interfere with the fact that
milk is q universal food and ia
vorite beverage.
To tempt the appetite of those
children, and adults also, who dis
like the taste Of milk, it can be made
more palatable to them by certain
DISCUSSES. For example, well
known method Is to add half or
full teaspoon of vanilla, with or with
out little sugar. Another excellent
change can be made by melting a
quarter square of unsweetened choco-
late, heating half tumbler of milk
Just enough to make it blend smooth
ly with the melted chocolate, sweet
ening it with half teaspoon of
sugar, or little more or less, to suit
the persons preference, and adding
milk to fill the tumbler. Chill in the
refrigerator. A spoon Of whipped
cream can be placed atop the glass
when served, and SO make a party
dish out of it. Most children delight
in this milk beverage.
For variety, add little beaten
egg to a glass of milk, also dozen
grains of salt and quarter teaspoon
of sugar. If the egg yolk is a rich
yellow the milk will be tinted by it
and be a pretty beverage. One egg
will be sufficient for this modified
eggnog, if it is stirred into pint of
milk. Keep the beverage well COW
cred in the refrigerator and it will
be ready to serve any time during
the day and even keep for second
day.
Drinking through a straw may be
sufficient to tempt child to drink
milk without having 1t prepared In
different ways.

and right at the base of his tail was
a patch of chestnut color.
Peter forgot all about Glory and
hurried over to welcome Kitty, who
had disappeared among the bushes
along the old stone wall. Peter had
no trouble in finding him by the queer
cries he was uttering. They were very
like the meows of Black Pussy the
Cat They were harsh and unpleas-
ant and Peter understood perfectly
why their maker Is called the catbird.
He did not hurry in among the bushes
at once, but waited expectantly. In
few minutes the harsh cries ceased
and then from the very same place
came song which seemed to be made
up Of parts Of the songs of all the
other birds in the Old Orchard. It
was not long, but it was charming.
Peter listened until the song ended,
and then scampered in among the
bushes. At once those harsh cries
broke out again. You might have
thought that Kitty was scolding Peter
for coming to see him. But that was
simply Kitty's way. He was pretend
ing. He is simply trimming over with
fun and mischief and loves to pretend.
