TARTAN IS USUAL COSTUME OF CHILDREN IN SCOTLAND It is only at the Highland games that visitors will see many Scots In tartans, although, the tartan is the usual costume of Scottish children and Is worn even by the younger princes: and sometimes; the older ones of the British royal family, writes a-correspondent in the Los Angeles Times. Highland costume Is made up of two parts, the plaid, a piece of cloth six yards yards wme unfolded, one end of which is caught over the left shoulder with a brooch pin, and the kilt.

It is both novel and useful, for it is in reality a largo purse, Tracing the ancestry of a Scot In Highland costume Is an easy matter for one with a knowledge of tartans, for all Highlanders once belonged to clans and each clan had Its own patorn for its tartan. Descendants of the old Scots determine what tartan they will wear In one of three ways: thoy-may wear that of their mother's clan, that of their father's clan, of if they have served In a Highland regiment, that of the regiment.

No Scot would think of wear- Ing the tartan of another's clan, and In tho old days the clans regarded their particular tartan so highly that they considered anyone who assumed It to be under their special protection, HANDLING OF DRINKS IS AN OLD PROBLEM Los Angeles perplexity over what to do with alcoholics had Its parallel in ancient times, says Dr. Arthur Patch Mc- Klnlay, professor of Latin at the University of California, at Los Angeles. Somo laws treated a drunken offender more leniently than a sober one, some more severely, his studies showed, 1 In the Greek' town of Locrl, In southern Italy, the code of Zaleu- cus allowed a lady one-attendant, but she was entitled to two if sho were drunk.
