A chimney is especially apt to col lect dampness when a free circula- ton of air is cut off, as Is the case when the house Is closed for the summer Therefore, mirrors hanging against chimney walls should be re- moved, and in case a bookcase or piano rests against such a well, it is well to move them away.

 For these and a thousand other reasans every girl, whether rich or poor should fit herself for some gain Iul occupation as part of her educa- | uoh, and she should begin now while Sne still has the study habit, and while she is young and plastic. Let her begin by trying to find out for what she is best fitted. Only a very IeW people have some talent so marked that nature settled the ques- ton Tor them before they were born.
 Most of us have no especial gift, put there is akvays some one thing mat one likes To do better than any tnlng else, and that points the road that 1t is best to follow. For the only things we ever succeed in are the things we like to do.
 If you like to cook or sew, take up the study of domestic science, or uIess making or millinery. If you are fond of little children and still Ike to make paper dolls, study kin derSartentng. If you like to write compositions al school, take d secre- tarlai course and qualify for being Somebody's highly paid secretary. If your best marks at school were in

 In choosing your life work, don't make the mistake that most girls do Of picking out something that they consider high-faluting. I get thou sands of letters from girls on this subJeoct. Seventy-five per cent of them want to be moving picture ac- tresses and the other 25 per cent are divided between a desire to go on the stage and be writers and grand opera singers. I've never had letter from girl who said she aspired to be a good cook or crackerjack stenogra- pher.
 Yet it is the common, practical, everyday thing for which there is constant demand. More girls have starved in the movies than ever made fortunes in them, and there arc thousands upon thousands of failures to every success in literature or on the stage. For God has to make you writer or a singer or an actress, but you can make yourself a success ful bookkeeper or saleswoman.
 Furthermore, we can do without the arts if we have to, but we've all got to eat and be clothed. Therefore, In picking out your profession choose something for which your fellow creatures have daily need. Then thoroughly prepare yourself for it, for it is only expert work for which the world will pay. A poor cook gets s10 week; a chef $1O0. A bungling seamstress gets s for making a dress; an artist of the Rue de la Paix gets $500. You will have to work just as hard to make little money as you will to make much.
 The best thing that modern life given women is the chance to make their own living and be independent Go to it, girls! DOROTHY DIX.

There have been occasions when

Every man. woman and child old

they may come to understand that
our flag is the symbol of liberty,
and learn to love it."

REVERENCE FOR OUR NATION
Al HEROES

A Chinese proverb sets forth that
"Only :mbeciles want credit for the
achievements of their ancestors"
While it is true that one generation
should not try to live upon the glory
won by previous generation, the
deeds of. our national ancestors should
not lie forgotten-and they will not
be allowed to pass into oblivion as
long az admiration for noble
achievements endures.
People of the present day should
do more than remember" the ma
tional heroes of the past and what
they accomplished for the country;
they should do more than pass on
these records and traditions from
father to son. They should show
such reverence for the names of
those who made American history
that it will prove an inspiration to
foreigners coming to make their
homes on our shores; they should
see to it that these names are
never used lightly or with disre-
spect.
This is the spirit of the booklet
entitled Lest We Forget" compiled
and written by William Hay Will
hanson and published by Theodore
Roosevelt Post No. CIT. American
Legion, of Chicago.

servance of Washington.s Birthday

That this disregard for our great
heroes, historic events. institutions
and principles is not confined to our
foreign born population or their
children. Mr.. Williamson points out
also that there are more genuine
honorable thrills in the history. of the
United States than in any other ma
