Six Policy Forms
Congress has provided six forms
of permanent policies" said Mr..
Ruth. similar to policies issued oy
old line insurance companies. These
government policies which pay Ii
vidends at the end of the first year,
rs well rs carry Il cash and loan
value at the end of that time are

Mr.. Knoll, representing the Ma

strongly urged the most serious

wish to be less thoughtful Of our
loved ones in time of peace than in
time of war. Then we were ready
to die for them, now we must De
ready to live for them, or see that
they are properly provided for,
should we unexpectedly die. To the
Veterans of the world war, the gov

from any cause and the veteran
ewes it to himself, his family and
community to secure one Of Uncle

BORE. e..

Continuing our subject of bores. How about the geneo-
logical bore9 The person of superior manner and affected
voice who wearies you with the detailed history of their
family tree. Whether or not their ancestors came over in the
Mayflower doesn't make any particular difference to you.
Have you been wearied by such a bore?

Has your patience never been tried by the arguing bore7
Whatever opinion you express such a person disagrees with
you and then proceeds to enumerate his reasons and at
tempts to argue about them. There is no quicker way to be
branded as unpopular than to be an arguing bore. Such a
one is Stunned as a singing bee.
Another bore is the person who is continually 'out of
luck'' and is always talking about it to chance acquaintance
or a felloY-worker. We all have our off days, but the real
bore is the one whose mouth is always droopy, whose salary
is always inadequate, whose opportunities are always inter-
fered with, and whose whole life is handicapped by the prov
erbial, ely in the ointment What a wet blanket to ones
enthusiasm is such a bore.
Then there is the dogmatic, domineering, dictatorial per-
son. Such a one states their opinion as the centre of the uni
verse. They refuse advice, will not even listen to your sugges-
ton, and flatly ignore your opinions. Such a person repre-
sents the quintessence of egotism. Have you never been exas-
perated by that kind Of a boreY

Theories That won't Jell'

AAat SNAh
"His theories about women"-you
hear the phrase often.
Every man is supposed to have
his theories about women" The
one about "woman's place is in the
home" is still largely rampant, des-
pite the suffrage amendment. the
minimum wage and the latest model
vacuum cleaners.
Another is that women cannot
kept a secret" We'd like to know
what would happen to the big busi-
ness moguls of the country IL their
seoetaries-women, if you please
couldn't keep a secret? Every last
one of them would have to give up
golf.
College boys are especially fluent
on theories about women. They, in
common with the rest of their cub
contemporaries, think 1t an exceed
ingly manly proposition to force
kisses upon a girl. then spout about
losing respect for her because she
permits familiarities. The state of
the girls respect for the smart
alecky Jasper himself apparently has
nothing TO do with the case.
Bachelors also have theories"
1HelT pet one Ab nd luey are lTTtsls-
tible to every female, married or
single, and that any one OF them
Will succumb to their charms.
Right along with this goes the as
sumption that the bachelor is being
everlastingly pursued, and II any un-
engaged girl takes the trouble to be
merely courteous to him she is run
ming after him"
Married men have theories about
women, though not so many as their
foot-loose brethren. They have a
harder time hanging On to their
theories because they find them so
constantly contradicted.
One of the married-man-made
theories is that all women are defi-
nitely good or bad. No halfway, no
fine shading or moral values what
soeyer. Women are either Magda-
lenes or Madonnas in their esTima-
ton, and it is the all-conquering
male who reserves the right to be-
stow or Withhold respectability upon
womanhood.
Why don't women indulge in this
pastime of having theories about
mem" 1t isn't necessary.
After the first half hour, mems
conversations are all alike.

Too Much Play

During the first six weeks Of life
the infant, in spite of the acute OBJ
servation of his parents-who see
many things denied to the unbiased
obseryer-does little or nothing ex-
cept eat and sleep. He may twist his
mouth in queer ways, but one would
hardly call it a smile. At six weeks
perhaps a trifle sooner he will really
smile.
From then on the baby shows real
signs of noticing" what is going on
about him. He hears the various
;ollnds of the household n will
turn his head in all directions to
follow the sound of his mothers
voice.
One has n hard time to restrain
the family from entertaining him
constantly, a very bad thing for the
baby-and later a real trial to the
family who lose interest in entertain
ment at three in the morning.
At three or four months the baby
will recognize the difference between
familiar and strange faces. He will
show an interest in his toys, in his
small waving hands and feet, which
are constantly in motion, and when
they come within range of his eyes
demand a very profound contempla-
lion. He may wen struggle to raise
himself up but should not be en-
couraged to do SO, neither should he
be propped with pillows.
At six months he will be very
much of an individual, laughing,
crying with real tears, developing
the ability to drool and also a nice
little temper. This is the time when
the mother can determine if she is

MISUNDERSTANDING Britons

The latest offender against this
good old British way of looking at

Just completed a successful run in a
goldng farce, "Plus Fours," in which
she plays the part of a tomboy who
DISCUSSES herself as her own brother.
Even royalty have been among those
who have paid tribute to the fair
American invader. The Princess
Royal of England saw the piece and
went out of her way to congratulate
Miss O'Neil on her success.
A spirited controversy, as to the
respective merits of the English and
the American girl. is being waged in
the London papers. Miss ONeil took
part in it. She said:
THE American girl does not seek
high and low for contentment, but
she does like to look around ard
have a good time. Lady Norah Ben
tinck says she is as modern as a
cocktail. She may be but she is not
so expensive. She drinks iced water,
THE American girl is alive. She
is healthy and most things look good
to her. At the same time she would
like to see what is going on around
that corner. The English girl isn't so
curious. Besides she thinks corners
are risky.
One thing more. I have never
heard of an American girl so pushed
that she had to fall back on Baede-
