0P SUEY U5 FOR THENTY YEARS i Starod in Amerct; Tros lurmed Whole Asiatic Landscape RS Washington, D, C, Feb, 27.—Chi- cago celebrates the two-score anni« versary of chop suey, and fillustrates how & lunclieon fad among State street shoppers literally transformed Milside landscapes in.

Jack-and-The-Bamboo-Stalk “Ot course i’ did not take an American food fancy to show the Orient that bamboo " sprouts were good eating.

Her devoted gon dug down in the snow to find them for her, and the gods rewarded his plety by raising up shoots that grew to an amazing size. Japanése artists, to this day, perpetuate this Jack-and- the-bamboo-stalk legend by ° their drawings of the boy, Moso, “The actual facts about the ham- boo are fabulous enough. Tt is a grass, and provides wood of more ‘numerous uses than any tree.
