How Leisure Is spent

SPRINGFTELD. Mass, June s.
Saloons do not attract young men

the fact that unmarried men spend

Ashamed of Corns
AS People Should They Are So Unnecessary

The instinct is to hide a corn.
And to cover the pain with
smile. For people nowadays
know that a corn is passe. And
that naught but neglect can ac-
count for it.
1t is like a torn gown which
you fail to repair. Or a spot
which you fail to remove. The
fault lies in neglecting a few
minute duty--just as with corn.
Any corn pain can be stopped
in moment and stopped for
good. Any corn can be ended
quickly and completely.

Martinsburg High School, is in Wash

has great ambition to fly for his
country. 1t is interesting to note that
his father once had aspirations to be-
come an aviator, studying the ground
work and himself planning flying
machine. He started the work OF
building flying machine, but in
