And so, no matter how blustery
the weather, clubs will still have
their afternoon meetings, there will
be cheerful teas in church parlors,
and friends will drop in informally
to spend the evening. If it is warm
inside and there is fragrant, invit-
ing food in the offing, the sharpness
Of the wind won't matter.
You will want to have few new
recipes at your fingers ends to
make such cold weather hospitality
easy. If you are feeding the club,
using the bridge table method, you
might serve beef creole in individu-
al rice rings, plate Of celery
hearts, carrot sticks and stuffed oil

HOPES THAT LAW
WILL NOT BE INVOKED

Cooley said 1t is presumed that
il will not be necessary 10 invoke
the law here. but the presumption
Ia on the belief that municipal
officers and the local people will
make IL unnecessary.
Backing up the governor In
Olympia were high army and
navy officers Of the Puget
Sound AREA Who also attended
the meeting.
Rear Admiral c. s. Freeman.
commandment of the navy yard at
Bremerton. declared himself IN
accord with the efforts to preserve
health and efficiency In all the
services.
DR.. Donald C. Evans. state di-
rector Of health. and Or. L. A.
Dewey. head Of the division of
venereal disease control OF his de-
partment, also were there.
Col. Albert c. Clark, director of
health work at Fort Lewis, headed
the group of army officers present.
With Cooley WAS Allan Blanch-
ard. his field assistant on the Pa
cific coast.
The same firm conviction WAS
expressed by all Of them that the
theory Of regulation OF prostitution
IL a fsllacy and that the army will
not tolerate the spread Of venereal
disease which existed during the
last war when restricted districts
were maintained.
During that war period. said
Governor Langiie. seven and .
half million work days were
Iost TO the army by men put
out Of action by venereal dis
eases, principally acquired In
eommerciAlixed houses Of pros-
titution.

local authorities an even two
months ago took exactly the acton
the governor now recommends.
