Girls Feet Do
What Hands
Were Meant For

berkeley, Cal, Feb. 2O.-Armless
since birth, Martha Hale, freshman at
the University of California here, has
taught herself not only to do with
her feet practically everything that
the physically normal girl Of twenty
can do with her hands. including
cooking, writing, sewing and dressing
herself, but intends to teach others
who are crippled to help themselves.
For this purpose she is taking a spe-
cial course in social service.
All her life Miss Hales attitude has
been one Of optimism and se.f-re-
lance. a slender wisp of "a girl. she
has never learned the meaning Of
Cant" She is an excellent student,
paints china. cmbroiders, and loves
/ to swim and dance" Among her
schoolmatcs she has long since been
accepted as "one of the crowd"
During the war Miss Hale visited
many government hospitals whore
maimcd soldiers were fighting their
way back to an arnlcSs life.
"Once | could convince them" she
said. that feet could be quite as use
full rs hands. they began to take in
teres,, to feel that the world was not
really going TO end for them"

est weekly letter of the Harvard
Economic Service, made public to-

AT the present phase of the

ter says. Last August the actual
average rate on choice double
named 60 to 30 day commercial
paper was 1888 per cent, the low

In the present month, March, 1928,
the actual average rate has risen
SOC per cent Money rates are
normally somewhat lower in March
than in August. If allowance be
made for the normal season influ-
ence the rise in the corrected rate
now amounts to 1856 per cent. In
other words, commercial paper

variations have advanced more

which has preceded every major
