The Republican Convention

I was reading the reports Of the
Republican convention in your paper

about the list of July or the latter
part of June, l read a prayer spoken

Working Papers
Dear Miss Doom:

Dear MISS doom;
What is the proper age for a boy to
work? Can he get a situation at 10
years of age? Will there be any
trouble in getting working papers?
Respectfully yours.
A boy should be kept in school as
long as possible in order to give him
some sort of a preparation to take
his place in the industrial world.
However, in large families of small
means this is often impossible, so the
law makes provision for such cases.
A boy can obtain working papers
if he is 10 and a graduate of an ele-
mentary school. If he is not a gradu-
ate he must be II or over. In cases
where it "a be proved that the boys
labor is absolutely necessary to the
maintenance of the family he can OBJ
tain exemption papers at the discre-
ton of the Board Of Education, even
if he does not comply with either Of
the two qualifications. If your boy
has not graduated from school make
application to the Board of Educa-
ton at the City Hall to have him
excused. When this has been lone
apply to the New Jersey Department
of Labor, 142 Market street, for the
working papers. Unless the boy is
excused from school the authorities
will be under the necessity of sending
their officers to your home when he
does not attend the opening sessions
of school. Many mothers through
ignorance of the exemption require
ments put this extra labor upon the
Board of Education, which really has
it's hands full and requires the CO.
operation of all parents in order to
do its work with the greatest eff
cheney.
When the boy has complied with the
school exemption laws and the labor
laws the chances of his
getting employment depend upon the
demand for labor and the quality of
the work he offers.

[BiIIie Burke|

THE FIRST wORD-There is a
health principle behind every woman
" beauty.
A man friend of mine says that he
has never been attracted to a woman
unless h had pretty teeth, and
would not marry one unless her teeth
were perfect.
81 could not sit across the break
fast table from a woman and keep
good-natured if she showed ugly teeth
when she smiled 1t me-" he said
seriously.
There is something very wholesome
about beautiful teeth. They make
a mouth much more kissable. They
make a woman look clean and sweet.
With the strides we have been
making in dental hygiene and mouth
sanitation there is no reason why any
girl should have ugly teeth today, and
certainly every mother should attend
to her children's teeth from the time
they come.
Many people, and in fact some old
fashioned physicians, seem to regard
the mouth and its condition as OF
little consequence. They will take
remedies for indigestion, frazzIed
nerves, infected threats and many
other ills when the principal cause
of all their trouble is decaying teeth
and unclean mouths.
If we blind mortals would only re-
member that no part of u physical
structure can be neglected while we
retain health and beauty we would
pay fewer doctor bills, besides add
ing to the sum of human beauty.
The mouth Is the gateway through
which all ~nourishment of the body
must pass. In it, for the maintenance
of health, the first and most impor-
tant step in digestion takes place
in fact the only step over which the
individual has any control.
The first requisite in cleansing the
mouth and teeth is a small brush
of moderately stiff bristles. Most
brushes are too large. Different kinds
of brushes should be used by those
having fat and thin faces. The girl
who is fat should have a brush the
bristle end of which tapers toward
the point. With this kind of a brush
she can get behind her plump cheeks

Teeth should be brushed twice
daily, always up and down, never

pass between the teeth and hardens
the gums. The mouth should then
be opened and the grinding surface
of the teeth brushed vigorously.
Then. by fitting the brush, clean the
surfaces next the tongue. Next ex-

When Parents Separate, What
of Child?
Dear Miss Doom:

Dear Miss Doom:
To settle an argument, we would be
grateful to you for any Information
on the following subject: A husband
and wife agree to live apart, the wife,
consenting to let the husband have
their child. 8 years of age, knowing
the husband to be in a better financial
position to care for him. The mother
regrets doing this. Has she Lost all
claim to the child by her act, and to
reclaim him Is it necessary to go to a
lawyer? Thanking you, respectfully,
E. T.
No, you have not given up all
claim to the child. However, unless
you and your husband can come to
some amicable agreement, whereby
one or the other assumes the GUS
tody of the child for the entire time.
or each for a certain portion of the
year, the court will have to decide
1t. First talk to your husband about
1t and see if you can't arrange mat
ters without n legal steps. These
steps would probably necessitate a
separation decree by the court which

probability of a complete reconcilia-
ton. There is a possibility that in
negotiating for the child in a, friendly
way you may both decide that you
have been making mountains out of
molehills and that the best thing
to do win be to forgive and forget
and start out anew with the thought
OF the child's happiness to keep you
in the right path.
Your son will not have a proper
start in life if he is deprived of either
of his parents, or If he must change
homes every six months. However,
unless the mother and father can
live together in perfect harmony it
Is far better that the child should
have the handicap mentioned above
than that he should get his ideas of
marital felicity from the constant
wrangling of those who should be to
him an example of everything that
is good in this world.

Black Velvet with White Dress

Dear Miss Doom:
l have a white embroidered dress with
a pink slip (paIe). Can wear a black
velvet loop in the back, also around the
waist? Do you think the colors go?
Maybe you can suggest something else.
A CONSTANT READER.
The combination you suggest will
be very pretty, as the black will give
character to the pale pink. If / were
YOU 1 would have the black detacha-
BILE and have a pale pink messaline
belt and sash with which to make a
change. Your idea in the matter
shows very good taste.

sure and rinse the teeth thoroughly
after each brushing.
Twice a year have them looked
after by a good dentist. This will be
a saving, as neglected teeth mean
big dentist bills and much discom-
fort.
Never have your front teeth filed
with gold. Have a porcelain filling
that matches the teeth in color.
Don't Immediately follow cold food
in your mouth with hot, nor hot
with cold.
Keep your stomach in good condi-
ton and the intestinal canal open,
as this has much to do with the
condition of your teeth.
JUST ONE LAST WORD-Think-
ing beautiful thoughts helps you 10
be beautiful and making yoursen
beautiful will enhance your beauti-
fun thoughts.
