RODEO ATT SALISBURY
MAY 1S no s2

A new sport is coming to the Del
Mar-Va Peninsula with the staging
OF the Shores First Annual Rodeo
May Is to % at the Saddle and Bri-
ole Club in Salisbury, Maryland.
This great sports event under the
general supervision Of Frank Moore,
ranager of the annual World Ser
les Rodeo in Madison Square Gar
den and with Col. Jim Eskey, noted
raDCber of Garland, Texas, as arena
director, has been allotted the five
day meet on the 1887 schedule Of the
Eastern Rodeo circuit.
Cowboys and cowgirls from the
various big ranches of the West in
cluding the ordinary cowpUncher
trying out for the big leagues of
Western sport, the runners-up
championship contenders aud the
champions of the various branches
OF cowboy sport will he on hand
striving against each other for high
loncrs in broncho busting, calf rop-
ing, cowgirls bronc riding, fancy
rop'ng, trick riding, wild steer rid
ing, wild steer wrestling or bulldog
ling and other hazardous feats Of
hcrsemanship.
Tie rodeo is big league game of
the cowboys national sports with
hundred or more daring cowboys
anu cowgirls bringing with them
that undauntable spirit of the great
West and prepared to uphold the
traditional saying that the American
COW boy is the greatest hOrsemaD in
the world
More than $50 head o. man-hating
outlaw bucking horses, wild long
horr Texas and Brahma steers.
fieetfooted Brahma calves and train
ed COW ponies will be shipped from
the open ranges of tEA HeSi to test
the skill of the entrants in the ro-
deo in Salisbury.
Thrilling special stunts or exhibi-
tions will be added to the major
events to round out a program of
over 20 separate numbers for each
performance.
The fact that the rodeo Is unre-
hearsed and rather Of an impromptu
nature, that there is no accurate
way OF telling just what a sunfish-
ing outlaw bronc will do next. or
gauging the maneuvers of a wild
longhorn steer. that anything is IL
able to happen and that something
always does happen, places 1t at the
head of the list OF thrilling enter
tainments and precludes the posi-
bility of any two performances be-
ing exactly alike.
Performances will be staged at 8 |
o'clock each night with a special
on Thursday. Friday and
afternoons giving the lid
dies and grown-ups ample opportun-
Ity to see in action their big hero.
The American cowboy.
At the Thursday. Friday and Sat
Irday afternoon performances, the
Saddle and Birdie Club is adding as
4 special attraction. matinee Ear
ness races between some Of the best
Snnwn horses on the Shore. These
matinee races will start On each Of
he three afternoons at o'clock
With a full rodeo performance fol-
ewing at o'clock.

FOOD VARIES LITTLE
AS TO QUANTITY;
MUCH AS TO KIND

Americans have been eating about
the same quantity of food for the
past ten years. notwithstanding the
great reduction in incomes between
1881 and 1895. But after an analysis
of dietary records kept by different
types of families, Dr. Hazel X. Site
beling, of the Bureau of Home Eco
nomics, points out that the kinds of
food eaten by families at different
income levels are very different.
Some have had liberal diet. Others
have had to do with very little Of the
important protective foods. The
average diets of families spending
800 or more per person per year for
food afforded some margin of safety
In all nutritive essentials.
The families studied reported on
the kind. quantity. and cost of food
consumed. They included those of
business and professional workers.
wage learners, and low-income. semi
dependent families. The dietary rec
ords collected at intervals since 1914
were taken in every season of the
year. in cities and villages. in A
States and the District of Columbia.
and represented yearly expenditures
for food from s32 to 5000 per person
(spring 1885 price level)
Greater expenditures for food per
person are not evenly distributed
over all commodities. says DR.. Site
beling. A greater proportion is
likely TO go for eggs. meats. milk,
butter. and the succulent vegetables
and fruits than for grain products.
potatoes. dried legumes and fats
other than butter.
A three-fold increase in total
pounds OF food purchased may mean
Dnly a three-fold increase of milk !
and lean meats. but five-fold in
crease in fruits and vegetables other !
han potatoes, and in butter and eggs. |
rhe groups spending the most for
'ood not only have more food. but
'ood richer in high quality proteins.
n minerals. and in vitamins. Some
waste is evident with increasing ex-
,enditures for food and a tendency
o purchase more expensive forms
II food: more butter. and higher

THE FoUR.YEAR.OLD AT PLAY
BY Viola E. HoIIey

rOuf-yedT-Olu teOfBe Wdb ueepiy
absorbed in making something with
his tinker toys. | wondered what 1t
might be and paused for few mo-
ments beside him to watch. Soon he
looked up smiling and explained:
Its a wagon, Mother. See! This is
where you back the horses in"
/ knew at once what had led him
to want to construct a wagon. We
had just returned from visit to his
grandparents. While there, George
had watched the horse being hitched
to the wagon and Grandpa had taken
him for a ride. We was living the
experience all over again now in his
play.
He viewed his tinker-toy wagon
thOughtfully. Now I need horse"
he said.
He looked around for something
to fill this need and decided to make
a horse from a little set of wooden
blocks that were intended for making
dolls. There was no piece large
enough for the body. but he spied
round ice cream container among his
playthings and was sure IL would do.
With little help from an older
brother. who cut holes in the box
where legs could be pushed through.
the horse was fashioned and backed
between the shafts of the tinker-tOy
wagon, where il was made secure
with some string that also served as
reins. The child was happy over his
success in making a toy horse and
wagon and pulled them about from
one room to another.
Play of this kind has interested
George for several months now AS
new activities come within the range
OF his experience. he eagerly tries to
dramatize them. This is a normal
impulse. To be sure, some children
do not show so strong a desire to
initiate, but opportunities to do so
should be given to them constantly.
Parents fail. often. to understand
such play and to see the possibilities
that it holds for the child's growth.
Consequently, they often overlook his
need for a larges range of expert
ences. He will profit richly by be-
ing taken on excursions of one kind
and another. suited to his age, where
he can see new sights. hear new !
sounds. and observe wide variety
of activities.
Ideas for things he can do and /
things he can make himself come /
thick and fast after such experiences.
II he is supplied with blocks. toy |
and perhaps train, he I
will live over in his play much that
he has seen. If he has a hammer,
some nails, a little saw, and scraps /
of lumber, he will work for lonh /
periods of time making things. gain
ing rapidly in the ease and conf
dence with which he is able to carry |,
out his ideas, and in skill in using
his hands.
There are other advantages. too.

Furthermore. problems of behavior

when a boy or girl is so happily oc-

lied. seemingly with but little sue

STOCK MARKET
RECEIVERS PART
OF EARLY LOSS
Steel, Copper, Motors
In Weak Group
By LESLIE GOULD

NEW YORK, NOV. 10 u.N.SO. .
The stock market continued weak
today, although a mid-morning
rally recovered about half of early
losses running to more than three
points.
Steels, coppers, chemicals, mo-
tors and farm implements were
among the weakest groups. Gold
shares bucked the trend, ruling
from fractions to more than a
point higher in Dome and McIn-
tyre.
U. S. STEEL OFF
U. s. Steel was off two points
at one time, but halved this later.
Bethlehem turned in a similar per.
fo1mance. Youngstown Sheet and
Tube converted a fractional loss
INTO an equal gain, but failed to
hold its plus sign.
In the hard pressed motor
group, Chrysler fell two points and
General Motors half as much be-
fore encountering support. Ana
conda, American Smelling and
Kennecott were down a point or
more in soft copper section.
Extreme losses in the chemicals
ran to 31a points in Union Carbide,
'2A in du Pont, 2 in Allied Chemi-
cal and 212 in Air Reduction. In
the farm implements, at the days
lows, International Harvester was
off 2A, Case 8 and Deere ~. All
these were reduced late in the first
hour.
80 RAILS SUPPORTED
Two individual weak spots were
Coca-Cola and Owens-I Illinois S
Glass, which tumbled and more
than 4 points, respectively.
Rails were fairly well supported,
active leaders in the group limit
ing losses to less than a point.
Utilities and oils also held rela-
lively close to their previous clos
ing levels.
Commodities were mixed. Cot
ton lost a few points, but grains,
particularly wheat, were higher
on the day. Bonds turned in an
irregular performance, with U. s.
Government obligations firm.
American stocks in London,
Paris and Amsterdam were weak.
