In Secretary Wallace's report

our population is growing rap

years there will be a home de-

products than we are now pro-
ducing. If during this period
OF agricultural distress we per

present needs by driving farm

cities, we shall be under the
necessity of reclaiming at
large expense the productive
land which is now being aban-
doned. And if we should ex-
perience one or two years of
short crops wlrile this process
is going on. the consuming
population will find itself COM

LETTER FROM LESLIE PRESCOTT
TO LESLIE PRESCOTT, CARE
OF HER SECRET DRAWER

Last night, little Marquise, Jack
and ! had the worst quarrel We ever
had in our lives. ~
After I had autographed mother
that l would meet her in New York
l began to get things together, for
l had determined to leave early the
next morning. Mothers going seem
ed a real act of Providence, for it
would give me an excuse to see Karl's
lawyers.
1t never entered my mind that
Jack would object to my going, and
SO when he came home that night
| causually remarked at dinner that
/ had gotten reservations on the
morning train the next day for New
York.
MAY l ask just why you are GO
ing, Leslie, or is it profound Sc
cret?"
Jack said this in an uglier voice
than | had ever heard from him be-
fore.
mother and dad are going to sail
on the tenth for England and they
are SCiuS W De a lew udyS IN NEW
York"
"Why was not told of this be-
forc?''
l don't know whether I was more
surprised than enraged at the ques-
ton, little Marquise. ! tried to keep
as cool as possible, however, and in
formed him that it was simply be-
cause did not get the letter until
the afternoon of that day. Then
had telegraphed mother I would
meet her at the Warldorf tomorrow.
81 was in my office all afternoon.
1t would have. been very easy
thing to have telephoned me before
you wired"
Jack looked right through me in
to space and his words cut the air
like knife.

When the Twins got to the Fairy
Queens palace, who should be wait

person in green suit.
The most remarkable thing about
him was a dustpan that he kept
tucked under one arm.
Nancy, Nck!' said the Fairy
Queen lovingly, for she had become
very fond of her little Twin chill
dren, II want you to meet one of
my oldest friends, Mother Goose's
husband, Daddy Gander. Daddy
Gander, Nancy and Nick! Nancy
and Nick, Daddy Gander!"
Nancy bowed and Nick bowed and
Daddy Camden bowed and everybody
bowed. And after they had finished
bowling and saying how glad every
body was to meet everybody else,
the Fairy Queen went on:
Daddy Gander wants you to go
home with him. He lives in a place
manned after him called, Daddy Gan
der Land"
Mother Goose lives in Mother
Goose Land, doesn't she?" inquired
Nancy. And if you are her hus-
band, sir, how can you live in Daddy
Gander Land?"
Mister Daddy Gander laid finger
beside his funny nose and winkcd
one of his funny eyes.
"How?" he remarked Easy as
pie. just turn the sign around.
When Missez Gooses is coming home,
and while she's home, I put out the
sign that says, Mother Goose, Her
Land
But when she's off on one of her
trips, get Tom Tinker and we
take down the sign and turn it
around and hang it up again. And
it says, Daddy Gander, His Land!'"
"Oh, I see!" laughed Nick. Its
all one and the same place. -"
"Surest thing you know" laughed
Daddy Gander winking again. And
he looked so funny they all laughed.
An dthen they went4on laughing un-
til it looked as though there wasn't

she asked suddenly.
"Why, why, why" painted Daddy
Gander, VINO was as fat as his wife
was thin, and round as she was
sharp, "why, don't remember. But
it Just seems that every time l open
my mouth everybody laughs"
What is your dustpan for, please,
sir?" asked Nick.
"Oh, that" exclaimed Daddy Gan
der in a surprised voice, as though
he didn't know he had it. "Why,
that is, you see, l always carry 1t
for fear Missez Goose might return
unexpectedly and ask me where 1t
is. l use it to gather up her sweep
ings and she's always sweeping. But
say, do you want to 60 home with
me? We can all get on my magic
dustpa7 and be there in a jiffy."
"Wc'd love to go!" cried the
Twins. Instantly the dustpan
spread out until it was big as a
carpet.
Jump ont" said Daddy Gander.
And all three of them squatted
down on it like Arabs.
Instantly the magic dustpan rose
and floated out of the door.

NINETY PER CENT OF
 GIRLS ARE VICTIMS
Glaring truth brought out by recent investigation of
 widely used method.

The tremendous sale of the Beauty Creations which arc being sold under the now famous Black and White label and which have caused so much discussion among beauty and skin specialists has re- suited in a thorough sitting out of valua- ble information.
 Girls and women who have bad com plexions. and who have been trying first one thing then another to bring that clear, rosy and pleasing appearance to their faces can trace their failure to just one thing and that is-the methods they have been using do not get lasting results.
 It is truc that many things have been offered to them through flashy advertising promising instant and almost overnight re- lief from pimples, blotches, rough or sal low skin, and all too unsuspecting in their eagerness to be attractive they believe it.
 But not until the now famous Black and White Beauty Creations were perfect ed few years ago had anything really re- liable been available. This is proven by the many girls and women who regularly use Black and White Cleansing Cream Peroxide Cream, Soap and the many others to meet every need in the care of their compilations and which ia the reason Black and White Beauty Creations are being sold widely.
