SEA WORM SAMOAN DELICACY its Infrequent Arrival Always Made the Occasion for the Holding of o a Great Festival, Palolo, the most prized of all guststory delicacies in Samoa, declared by Amevicans who bave tried it to be superior to the lobstér, is a marine wornl, being rather mysterious in that it is never seen save oo two or three nights io the eotire fear, Its appear ance seems 10 be regulated by the moon. = : . -~ The palolo chooses the time for its first appearance on the oight when the October moon chauges. When the moon rises the sea Is seen to be alive with - wriggling green+ and brown worins, some of them a yard or more in length. The natives make a festival of the occasion, going out with dip nets among the reefs and scooping up the worms by the bushel. They paddie around In every availablie _boat with lighted torches waiting for the moon, and then the scene becomes one of great and Joyous excitement, - The palolo comes once agnip when the November moon guarters, and is ot seen again until the following year. It is said to live in crannles of th: coral reefs, coming to the surface to spawn at these Junar periods. Some of the worms are eaten as they wiggle, but the bulk of the catch is reserved for a big feast on the following day, when they are wrapped In banana leaves and baked. o YEAR ONCE BEGAN IN MARCH Change in Style May Be Said to Date From 1752—Great Militant - : Eveants in Month, ‘Few people know, or, If they do, have forgotten, that March, and ot Janhuary, at one time was the first month of the year, remarks the Chlcago Journal. For commencing the vear with March there seems to be sufliclent reason in the fact that it is the first season after the “dead year,” in which decided symptoms of growth take place. ‘ c
The name s derived from the Romans, among whom it was at an early period the first month of the year, and . continued to be In several countries to a comparatively late period, the .egal vear beginning, even In Engiand, cn Mareh 26, until the change of style in 1752. For the Romans to dedicate their first month to Mars and call it Martius seems equally . ‘Ttural. considering the importance they attached to war and the use they made of it In the history of our own country April appears to carry off the palm for the month in which great militant events occurred, yet in the wor'd war a number of egmvh-mnking incidents took place in March; for instance, the revolution in Russia in 1917, when Czar Nicholas abdicated on March 15. The big drive on the 50-mile frontfrom Arras to La Feu began on the 21st, and Paris was in that month bowmbarded by “Big Bertha.” _ ; ' Strong Caps of Paper. . Astonishing strong paper caps, capable of wighstanding powerful blows, though extremely ligke In welight, have been invented by a shipyard employes. ‘and are. intended to be worn by workmen whose dutles expose them to danger from falling objects, says Popalar Mechanics® Magazine, . < The process by which the novel headgear is produced has not been divuiged, but it is known that chemicals are emploved to harden the material, withoat adding to its weight. Several styles have been made, the lightest weighing about seven ounces, and others slightly more. In a recent test, a 1-pound bolt was dropped on one of them from a height of forty feet, with the result that a barely perceptible dent was f made in the paper. The novel head coverings are proof against water and acids, and are nonconductors of electricity. _
' Heat for Alaska. The Pacific has its own “Gulf stream,” which is called the Japan current, and it i# formed in the same way. : The trade winds, blowing from the tropics, bank up the warmed ocean waters in the Yellow sea (correxponding to our Gulf of Mexico), and thence they pour out between Japan and Formaosa, the streaw thus formed passing south of the Aleutian chain, along the southern coast of Alaska, and down the west coast of North America. ' Hernce it comes about that the whole southern coast of Alaska has a tem perate climate.- It is warmed by the Japan current. - ' . . T & What Really Keeps Time, .
