ORE than $50 children daily

fascinating game Of making a
village and furnishing their houses. At
this school a rather unique system of
community cooperation is employed.
One house is finished and completely
furnished before the merry citizens move
on to make the next dwelling for their
Main street.
The director of this playground is
especially insistent that color schemes
be considered, and although many of
the children have shown a rather alarm
Ing and bloodthirsty desire to paint all
the kitchen furniture red and yellow,
they are gradually being persuaded to
use tones of a more safe and sane
nature.
There are about sixty girls in this
group and they are particularly inter-
ested in the color plans. In this way
they are receiving general and
elemental idea of interior decoration.

Betty Compson and the Paramount
Stock Company School.

Last week I told you what Alice
Brady said about the past lack of
screen efficiency. This week I'll tell
you not only what is being said
about it, but what Is being done
about (which is rather more to
the point.
Adolph Zukor and Jesse Lasky. p-esi-
dent and vice president, respectively,
of the Famous Players-Lasky Cor
poration, have thought for some time
that some sort Of school should be
organized. whereby the stars and di-
rectors and supporting players. ct
cetera. could get the training they
have frequently lacked. The result
of this thought was conference with
Cecil B. de Mile, and then a confer
ence with the Paramount players. and
the hearty enthusiasm and cooperation
of ali. The stars were for it with
a bang! They asked to draw up and
submit their own rules and regula-
tions-which was granted them. They
asked for an advisory board. and a
board of control and all sorts of
boards-and now it is established;
and not only is it open. but it =
compulsory, for the Paramount play
ers to attend the school. 1t is not, by
the way. open to the G. P.

is the only logical step"

should be done, and it took months

Men as Cooks.
You have doubtless heard the {

You have doubtless heard the opin-
ion put forward that men as rule
make better cooks than women.
Usually this opinion is projected by
man. Perhaps he is a man who
likes to cook, bachelor who really
prefers to go home to a meal of his
own making than a meal cooked in
He makes the remark about men
making the best cooks, partly be-
cause he sincerely believes that they
are. and partly to oppose any pos
sible feeling on the part of his friends
that he is womanish in liking to
cook.
Men who themselves know nothing
of and care nothing for the art and
practice of cooking sometimes in
cline to this belief-that men are the
best cooks. This, they say, is because
men have more acute and more sensi-
tive taste. The greatest gourmets
are always men, and one has to be
something OF gourmet to be really
first rate cook.
Here is the opinion Of an English
writer, George r, Sims. on the sub
ject, and it is as good an explanation
as any:
Men, as a rule, make better cooks
than women-I am writing of pro-
fessional cooks-because no man goes
in for cooking as a career unless he
is really interested in the art and has
taste for it. whereas thousands of
women take it up because there is
more money to be earned by calling
oneself a good plain cook than there
is by going into domestic service as
a scrubber of floors. a duster of fur
niture or a hander-round of dishes"
This really is an explanation that
might be applied to the non-profes-
sional man cook as well as to the
profe ssional. He is rare bird-as
rare a bird as the professional male
cook. Popular prejudice is somewhat
against him. A man has far fewer
opportunities to work up skill in
cooking than does a girl who is Of
fered cooking lessons in school, and
is often pressed into service at home.
So the man who does overcome OBJ
stacles and does develop skill as a
cook must be naturally gifted as a
cook.

Curling Hair in This Season.

At this season of the year SO many
women are asking ways to keep the
hair in curl that / am offering some
advice. In most cases it would be
best to stop trying to keen the hair
in curl and adopt new arrange
ment not requiring this strenuous
and often uncomfortable treatment.
A simple method of dressing the hair
is also more pleasing during the hot
weather period.
During the cold months the hair
loses much of its vitality through
our manner of living in dry and often
overheated buildings. and some curl
ing is often needed to make a De
coming coiffure. But this should not
be the case at this season. and hair
that is summed and aired Will be SO
vital with a natural gloss TO 1t
there should be no trouble in arrang-
ing it becomingly. When the hair
| has had this advantage and shows
; the effects of it by being soft and
fluffy, omit the curling for a few
months, even though the hair is quite
straight. You may even be sur
prised to see how much younger you
| look in the simpler way of arranging
, the hair.
However, there are cases where the
! hair is so devitalized that it sinks
| and packs to the head. With such a
condition curling is necessary. as II
softens and even helps to air the
scalp.
/ am offering the following formula
as a curling fluid. which / under
stand will keep the hair in curl over
every day even though there is much
dampness in the atmosphere. 1t is
made by adding one gramme OF
gum tragacanth to 100 grammes OF
rose water and letting stand over
night. In another vessel dissolve
six grammes of ounce seed by add
ing hot water to make It loo

put the two together. Dampen hair

Waist Deep Obesity.

Of my body. I have tired feeling

this instance. as IN many similar
ones, omitted to mention her age,
height and weight. and therefore
could not answer her question. am
not answering it now, but simply
using her query as text for this
discourse.
It is a peculiar fact that in many
cases of glandular insuff1ciency, both
in men and in women. though most
frequently in women, there Is form
of obesity which may be described
as waist deep-that is to say. the in
dividual is of normal development
and nutrition from the waist up
ward, or even somewhat scrawny, as
Gertie seems to be. but shows an &C
cumulation of excessive fat in the
lower abdominal wall, upon the hips
and thighs, and often thick fat pads
upon the lower part of the legs and
about the ankles.
Gertie asks whether I think her
liver causes it. No. I think another
gland is more likely responsible. the
pituitary gland which is seated on
the more or less famous Turkish sad
die (sella turcica) at the base OF
the brain behind the eyeballs.
Suitable hormone treatment, which
no one except the patients physi-
clan can effectively administer. will
often bring about a remarkable and
gratifying redistribution of the fat
in such cases. For example, woman
Of forty-one years presented many
signs of insufficiency of pituitary
function, among them a marked waist
was 80 inches and her hips 43 inches
before treatment; after eight weeks
of hormone medication her waist
measure was rs inches, her hip meas
ure 361a inches, although she had
lost but one pound in weight This
was accounted for by a perceptible
increase of fat about the chest. shoul-
ders and neck. The woman's health
| and figure were normal four years
later. Further than Gertie suggests
