inghamshire. Three hundred years
later George Ekins was q priest with

at oxford. Thomas Elkins Cor AL
kins) is mentioned by Burke. He was
the father OF Verrier Elkins, vicar Of
Lynham and Eysford. County Kent.
Members Of the Elkins family we're
among those first pioneers who were
active in building a new nation in a
new world. Members Of this family
were found in all three great enter
prises In Colonial America-the set
ting Of New Netherlands New
York;, the establishment of the Mas
sachusetts Bay colony at Plymouth
and the founding of the jamestown
settlement in Virginia.
In the New Netherlands colony
Henry Elkins was the most promi-
nent member. He commanded a fort
near the city Of Albany in 1914. He
and his associates communicated with
leaders Of the Pilgrim community In
Leyden, seeking to persuade them to
take advantage Of the opportunities
presented in the New World.
In the Massachusetts, Bay colony
another Henry Elkins was an active
leader. He came from London and Is
recorded as a free man of Boston in
1885.
Among the Elkinses who settled in
the South was John, who appears to
have settled in Maryland, while Ralph
Elkins is considered the founder Of
the Virginia family. 1t is probable
that the Southern settlers were near
relatives Of those who esta blished their
homes in New England and New
York.

The Play.
A diamond was led by East. De-

monds and (having to lose a trick to
the ace of spades) he must also OBJ
tain a discard Of his losing heart.
This can be obtained only on a spade:
and the trouble Is that dummy Is
short of entries because the diamonds
must be ruffed promptly. You cannot
afford to let the West hand in be-
fore this is done, or he will lead

North must play West for precisely
TWO hearts. He gets back twice with
hearts and thus ruffs both diamonds.
Now dummy is In the lead with five
spades, two hearts and the queen Of

best play is to hold of once. An
other is led, West takes with the ace
and plays a third spade for East to

Paian1as, Two-Piece Model Offer Comfort
Represent Revival of Design

Use of Seersucker.

i Our two-piece model for Sleep
ing pajamas shows an anus
ing compromise in the tailor-made
development of a conventional floral
print. The material, being soft
enough to feel like nothing at all,
neatly contrives to meet the require
ments of comfort, II not luxury.
This design is 1884 revival of the
known and adored sleeping pajamas
of a few seasons ago, which unwit-
tingly were temporarily shelved for
less practical types Of sleeping apparel
during the period when we were busy
launching the feminine movement in
other departments OF our wardrobe.
No other type Of garment can re-
place these simple. two-piece pajamas
for actual comfort. They are airy
and cool. They have no awkward
fastenings-just the practically auto
matte adjustment to the waistline Of
the elastic at the back of the trousers;
a shaped yoke In the front holds them
in correct position. The little butter
fly bows on the shoulders are purely
for the purpose Of adornment. They
are tied on over the seam-joining,
and produce q soft, gathered effect in
the back as well as the front.
These pajamas are as popular in
dainty batiste, as In lingerie silk,
Seersucker ones are having q great
run with certain women who like to

~HILDREN and young people
have a natural love of out
doors. They keep their bodies
~ supple and their spirits high
by plenty Of physical activity
In the fresh air and sunshine. A
good digestion and active circulation
make their skin clear and their hair
glossy.
1t is when girls become more in
terested in indoor sedentary work
and diversions that they begin to
depend more on cosmetic aids to
camouf1age sallowness and brighten
dull tresses. Double chins. round
shoulders and kindred defects that
are caused by incorrect posture and
lack Of regular exercise rob the fig
ure prematurely of its youthful
charm. Not only does too much in
door living affect physical beauty. but
1t tends to deaden that buoyancy
and exuberance Of spirit that are
the essence Of youth. There is no
beautifier equal to this healthy joy
business for making eyes bright, skin
clear and figure full Of grace.
In Springtime Nature seems to ex-
ert a stronger appeal than at any

and those who heed it are amply re-
paid for their trouble OF course,
the automobile riders do not get as
much benefit from their outdoor ex-
cursions as the mixers or those who
engage in open-air sports. A motor
ride into the country is mentally re-
freshing and also brings a temporary
glow to the skin, but it falls far
short of being a real beauty treat
ment.
So my advice today to every
reader OF this column is, go play
out Of doors. Games that two or
more can play appeal TO most people,
but when a suitable partner for
sports cannot be found there are
outdoor exercises like golf, horse
back riding, bicycling and archery
that can be enjoyed alone The main
point is that one should be agree

Monsters of the Sea.
Cherbourg's Shark"

ShCtUV1i6 ohath'
- EVEN weeks ago strange
looking sea monster was found
on the coast of France, not far
~ from Cherbourg. A newspaper
reporter cabled next day:
Nothing even remotely resembling
the sea monster has ever been seen
before in this part of the world"
That was the message, but in later
days the reporter and others learned
that the animal looked a great deal
like the "toothless whale of Havre,"
found in 1925.
The Cherbourg monster has proved
something Of puzzle. It was found
to be almost Is feet long, and there
was a neck 3 feet In length. The
head had been battered by the waves,
and to some observers looked like the
head of a camel.
"Bristly white hairs" were reported
as standing forth from the skin, but
later study brought the statement that
the hairs" really were small bones
which had broken through the skin.
The animal was photographed and
"radiophotos" were sent across the
ocean. An American scientist declared:

THE origin and earliest background
Of this family name prior to the
Middle Ages remains somewhat OBJ
scure, but 1t is definitely known that
throughout the medieval period men,
bers of the House of Elkins were ac-
lively engaged in various militaristic
and chivalrous enterprises. They were
then, as today, noted for their great
courage. their determination and ad-
venturous spirit.
The coat of arms is typical Of the
character and spirit of the Elkins
family. The antelope is symbol OF
alertness-agile, graceful, swift-al-
ways gentle, always vtgilant, fearless
In combat.

family appear to have been ardent

sadly.
Isn't he here'" asked Jerry in sur
prise.
Mrs. Peter shook her head. NO"
said she. Then she told Jerry how
Peter had left home and hadn't re-
turned.
Probably he Is over in the Green
Forest" said Jerry comfortingly. The
water couldn't very well catch him
Probably he stayed over there too
long and found he couldn't get back
here. I wouldn't worry about Peter.
He's all right"
Il hope So" replied little Mrs Peter,
but she said it as if she hardly be-
lieved that it could be so.
A tangle Of sticks and straw came
floating along past the Old Briar-
patch and caught and held a few
feet out. At once three Meadow Mice
left 1t and swan for the shore They
landed close to where Mrs. Peter sat
They shook the water from their gray
coats and squeaked for joy. They
paid no attention whatever to Mrs.
Peter. They were too overjoyed at
feeling ground under their feet once
more. They scurried off along one
of the private little paths toward the
middle Of the old Briar-patch. They
wanted to get as far from the water
as they could.
Shortly after one of Johnny Chuck's
children, now fully grown and as big
as his father, arrived by way of a
floating tree trunk. Like the others
he acted rs If it was too good to be
true to once more be on dry land.
Before night there were several more
arrivals. The dear Old Briar-patch
had become refuge. Never since she
had lived there had Mrs. Peter had 50
many visitors. Somehow their pres
ence made her feel less afraid, al
though the water continued to rise
until 1t was tapping at the very edge
Of the Briar-patch. That night the
water stopped rising.

Wood Pewee.
Myiochanes Virens.

Y you must seek the acquaint-
" ance of this modest fly
I catcher. He is too self-ef-
i facing to intrude himself upon
you. 1t is well worth your
trouble to 60 into the deep forest to
hear him sing. Only the deep woods
inspire this lovely singer. Here his
songs of praise and his hymns Of
gratitude echo through the silent
aisles.
You are impressed by their good
taste before you really stop to know
what they have on. The coat is a
dusky olive-brown. The cap is a
darker shade. The throat and under
parts are a paler brown, tinged with
yellow. The wing coverts are tipped
with white, making two distinct bars.
About his eyes there Is a white ring.
His wings are longer than his tail.
His wife is dressed in the same colors,
with the exception that the yellow Is
more bun in tone.

provinces. In October the return trip
Is made.
Many have confused the wood
pewee with the olive-sided fly catcher.
This is not unusual, as the two fly
catchers look very much alike.
One noticeable thing about these
birds is their lack Of sociability. If
you happen to own an old orchard,
and insects have been given a clear
title to it, you may see the pewee.
Then the retiring one gathers his
friends about him, and feasting goes
on from daybreak until dusk. Other
wise. the pewee seeks the shade rather
than the sunlight. In the deep soli-
tudes he fits about the tree tops.
After your feelings have been stirred,
and you look into the trees to see what
the matter is, you get glimpse of
the singer. The "little deceiver" is
racing through the air, making life
miserable for the hordes of insects
that haunt the upper air.
Back from his successful hunt,
perched upon a limb where he can
watch the passing insect tribe, he
again chants his solemn hymn. No
matter how earnest he is about his
singing, let one fly come close. and
the soloist pursues the hapless fellow
with vigor.
The wood pewee is a devoted lover
