From the time a girl reaches the
age of twelve until womanhood is es-
tabIished, she needs all the care .
thoughtful mother can give.
The condition that the girl is then
passing throughis so critical, and may
have such far-reaching effects upon
her future happiness and health, that
it is almost criminal for a mother or
guardian to withhold counsel or ad-
vice.
MANY a woman has suffered years
of prolongedpain and misery through
having been tsse victim of thought
lessness or ignorance on the part Of
those who should have guided her
through the dangers and difficulties
tAat beset this period.
Mothers should teach their girls
what danger comes from standing
around with cold or wet feet, from
lifting heavy articles, and from over
working. Do not let them over-study.
If they complain of headache, pains
in the back and lower limbs, they
need a mothers thoughtful care and
sympathy.

PLANS TO DISPATCH

Plans for dispatching traction
cars by radio are being considered
by Fred c. Manson. superinten-
dent of distribution, Monongahela
Power & Railway Co.. and expert
ments with the wireless method of
communication between dispatcher
successful.
The use of trolley wires as an
tennae is the principle upon which
communication from cars in
motion has been made possible.
That it can be done has been
proved by Mr.. Manson who con-
nected a wireless set with a $4,000
volt line and talked to friends in
Warrington.
Assistance in the project was
given by Okey Y. Swisher and
Frank Everest of the Case Flee
trio Co. Yesterday conductors on
cars far out on the ClarksDurg-
Fairmont line talked to officials in
the main offices here. Later in
the week u car will be sent to
Weston entirely by wireless.
Such an arrangement if it is
practicable, would greatly improve
the car service, it was stated
Severe storms often put telephone
wires out of commission but this
would not result il the trolley
wires were used as the means of
communication. The heaviest
storm seldom breaks a high ten
sion wire, Mr.. Manson declared.
