Pet Superstitions

1t is unlucky to gamble in room
where there is a woman unless she
is gambling, too, says an old super
stition. "And it is usually unlucky,
anyhow" commented an expert po-
ker player recently. Therein lies
the probable explanation for stag
parties. 1t brings bad luck to play
cards any place near the spot where
a murder was committed. Walk
around the card table three times to
change your luck. It is lucky for a
card player to carry the wishbone
of a chicken in his pocket.

All Club Notes
UNCLE SANS All CLUB

The Uncle Sam club met at the
home of Mrs. Elmer Fett Monday
night. The discussion centered
around the improvement of health
for defense.
Members of the club have bought
$3.50 in defense bonds and $40 in
stamps.
The club is assisting in home beau
tification projects by planting shrubs,
trees or plants at their homes.
An hour was spent in the study
of different kinds of cloth.
Home garden projects are being
planned in which the girls are not
only raising extra food but also plan
ming to can that food.
Four of the girls spent Saturday
before Easter at Findlay selling lilies
for the crippled children of Hancock
county.
More red cross sewing will be un-
dertaken by the girls in the near
future.
