SPROWLS, Many people believe that every race Ras its own temperament, its own pe- suliar peychological make-up. The term race-soul is often used to describe $his racial quality, Lately this question of race-soul has been regarded as s pure myth. Cer- tain it is that no one can measure it and so0 come to definite conclusions about it. The re strictly one ad- heres to scientifi methods in his ob- servations, the less does it appear that Taces possess definite, characteristic race-souls. Now, if you do have a race-soul, it s something you know nothing about in a consclous sense. Whatever it is, it exists in your unconscious self. You know no more about it than you do about your ancestors of even a few gen- erations back. The farther back you 80, the less you know, and also the more numerous are the factors you bave to consider. © _ Ten generations ago you had 1,024 ancestors. Twenty generations ago you had 1,048,576 ancestors. Thirty gener- ations ago you had 1,073,741,824 an- cestors. Forty generations ago you had 1,099,511,627,776 ancestors. Allowing three generations to a een- turv. the last set of figures would take you back about 1,300 years., A good deal of mixing has been going on during that time. It's pretty hard to figure out Just what you are racially. (Copyright, 1930.) —— Cheese and Bacon. Fry some bacon crisp and place upon pleces of toast.

By ending above the waist the waistline itself is apparently slenderized. This may be the reason for its popu- larity. Nancy saw herself wearing one of these town ensembles when she went down town shopping. She felt ade- quately dressed for the little coffee shop where she dropped in for a toasted | bacon and tomato sandwich served with mayonnaise into which chopped chives | had been put. With the sandwich she took iced tea served with lemon and a bit of cucumber curl, like those used for some fruit punches. ¢ ‘When she wore a soft, flattering and fluttering bolero of this type she knew she was dressed for an afternoon on the country club porch. She could stay over waiting for Peter to come out from business. A dinner in the cool dining room, looking out over the green with big, feathery trees in the distance, was a pleasant way of spending the early eve- ning. For dinner they had iced tomato juice cocktail, brolled steak with cress, new potatoes in cream, new peas buttered, crisp rolls, fresh cherry jam. The salad and dessert were one—a frozen fruit salad with cream cheese, mayonnaise and a little gelatin in the base and ers belonged with this salad-dessert and plenty of black coffee.

It appears that the 3d Regiment of Connecticut Volunteers, which was ap- proaching that point about 3 am., was mistaken in the half light of early dawn by the Union pickets for a body of Gen, Beauregard's Confederate Army. An alarm was spread throughout the camp, and considerable excitement pre- valled for some time, as the Unlon troops at that point prepared for what they expected would be a serious bat- tle with the “dread Confederates.” They felt rather sheepish, however, when it was eventually discovered that the “dread Confederates” were really Connecticut Yankees, coming to_help instead of fight them. The 3d Regi- ment had crossed the Potomac River during the night and was moving up to strengthen the Union position. ‘The new Connecticut troops marched on past Baileys Cross Roads to the crossroads about one-quarter of a mile below Taylor's tavern. There the two other Connecticut regiments have been posted for several days. The new=- comers at once went into camp there. The position is regarded as an im- portant one, as it commands the road approaches to the main camp of the Connecticut troops and to the City of Washintgon. The disappearance of Capt. Kellogg of one of the Connecticut regiments, stationed near Falls Church, Va., was explained today. The story is that Capt. Kellogg went a little away from the point he was supposed to be guard- ing, in order to converse with two very charming young ladies—the Misres Scott, aged 18 and 20 years and high- 1y respectable, though with sympathies that lean toward the Confederacy. The young ladies invited Capt. Kellogg into their house. He entered and spent some time pleasantly chatting with them, Meantime three Confederate troopers | came through the nearby woods, ap- peared syddenly at the door, and cap- tured Capt. Kellogg in approved mili- tary style. Since then nothing has been heard of the gallant Union cap- tain. Lieut. Tompkins, with a small party of Union scouts, made a reconnoissance from Falls Church for about five or six miles out toward the southwest. It bad been rumored that the Con- federates had mounted several heavy guns in that vicinity, but Lieut. Tomp- kins failed to find them, and it is now believed that the report was without foundation in fact.
