FARM AND
HOME FACTS
FOOD AND THE ,FLAPPER

What shall l give my daughter to
keep her from becoming UNDER
weight?" woman wants to know.
"Since she started work in New York
and associates with the 'flapper' type
of girl she refuses to eat breakfast,
very little lunch, and practically lives
on one meal day SO that she will
be slim like the rest of the gnrls."
How typical is that story! And
also how tragic, for it bespeaks
above all lalk of standards, an un-
enlightened following of the crowd.
The mother obviously has standard
her yard stick is a good breakfast,
an adequate lunch and dinner that
will round out the daYs meals so
that hey will coc,ain tho right foods
and enough of them. But what does
it avail to have standards, if you lack
the backbone to enforce them?
For daughter has other notions. If
she is to wear the flapper styles with
SitS pioPci oWaSScti Slie must Gulli-
vate the lead pencil silhouette, and,
alas, nature moulded her in soft and
pretty, but totally UNREASONABLE
curves.
unfortunately, where health is in
volved, he matter becomes some
thing more than one of youthful folly
that passes with the teens. For un-
dernourishment at this time of age
is all too likely to result in years of
i'll health. When the age of sense
does arrive, when she ceases to live
on excitement, and feels the need for
the vitality which comes from a
nourished body, when fashion comes
second and health first, too often
there will be an abused stomach
which she must spend valuable time
in coddling. She is lucky if she gets
off without actually contracting some
disease.
But, in the meantime, until that
sense comes there is chance for
mother to conduct little educational
campaign, or, if need be, to exert her
quota of authority. Any normal
girl who expects to do good morn
ing's work should leave home forti-
fled with a substantial breakfast
fruit, cereal, or toast, milk or cocoa,
an egg, or bacon or both if she
wishes( especially if she must under
go the additional strain of commut-
ing.)
Then even if her lunch is not ade-
quate, she will not be entirely tagged
out before dinner, which can be made
nourishing and substantial, yet di-
gestible, to insure a good nights
rest.

DRAGGING ABOUT IT

Trotzky, of Russia, has given his
biography to soviet publication and
shows himself to be a jail bird with
a rare record. During the decade im-
mediately proceeding the revolution
this gentleman (?) served time in
nine jails as dangerous criminal,
and no doubt he was deserving Of ev-
cry one of them. Yet today he heads
an army of one million men who man.
age to keep the people of Russia cow
ed and trembling, and who stand as q
constant menace to the civilized
world. That is record of which Mr..
Trotzky seems peculiarly proud, yet
in his present condition he is more
of blight to the world than when
he was committing crimes against
society which led to his incarceration.
For now he is able to impose his
tyranny ON an abject and prostrate
nation, visiting death on all who
speak against him and elevating his
fellow criminals to positions of DOM
inion and power. In the meantime q
charitable world goes on providing
sustenance for people drained white
to maintain the gigantic army of OPP
preston and keep alive the seed OF
empire. Russia, which suffered cruel
ly for generations from the cruelty
and OPPRESSION of the czars, would hail
with delight return of that regime,
so blasted have they been by the
"freedom and fraternity visited up.

the people and the beneficient (?)

IL WON'T WORK."

The |. w. w, the bolshevist ele-
ment of American labor, has declared
strike. Their full title is Internal
ional Workers of the World" but the
attitude they take has given rise to
the nickname of 81 Won't Work"
Another nick name they have is the
"Wobblies." Both are very fitting.
Their actions and statements classify
them as the trough necks" Of Amer
lean labor. They have as leaders such
men as Foster. who is now on trial
in Michigan. They are the sort, who,
if you don't agree with them, they'll
"knock your block off"
Now they have called nationwide
strike which affects primarily the
shipping interests of the country. In
Boston they claim l50 men out on
strike. Employees, however, claim on
ly 80 men are out.
That isn't very much" you'll say.
But wait minutel Admitting that
the "Wobblles" are correct IN their
statement that 150 men are out in
Boston, their failure to work directly
prevents 1000 other men from work
ing! These Boston "Wobblies" are
dock workers, stevadores, etc. If they
don't work, ships can't be loaded; if
ships can't be loaded. they can't be
reloaded; if they can't be reloaded
they can't sail; if they can't sail the
crews will be without jobs.
Thus a minority is ruling major
ity. Thus few are preventing many
from earning their daily bread. They
don't want to work, and don't want
anyone else to work II the work is mt
done, then food. clothing, machinery
and thousands of other things can't
be shipped.

Who pays the bill? YOU DOT

BRIBING YOUNG MEN AND WO.
MEN TO BE VIRTUOUS

A recent news dispatch from
France tells of a peculiar bequest
made in the will of woman who re-
Gently died in the town of Thonon-
les-Bains. Her name was Madame
Caroline Geoffroy. Her will provides
that "the sum of 5000 francs shall
be paid annually to the young man
and young woman, 20 or 21 years of
hge, whom the mayor shall deem
most virtuous." Madame Geoffroy ex-
planned in the will, "My object is to
join in marriage plain Venus and
an ugly Hercules who will procreate
healthy, strong ehilren to the greater
glory of France"
Now think that over!
Is it deplorable that morals are so
corrupt that young men and young
women have to be bribed TO be vir-
tuous
Certainly it is commendable that
woman should provide the money
with which to reward clean and right
Iivingl

Of heavenly reward that makes a

The writer has just finished read
ing most fascinating book Books
and Habits" by Lafcadio Hearn.
He ventures to call it to the atten-
tion of those of you who love the
really fine things of Literature.
Lafcadio, as is we'll known, lectur-
ed in the University Of Tokyo from
1896 to 1902.
This book is grouping of the
cream of his lectures in one volume.
They are all taken for publication
from the notes of Japanese students.
1t must be remembered that Anglo
Saxon customs would not be clear to
the Oriental mind, SO that the lect.
urer must use simple language in ex-
planning. Some parts seem almost as
if he We're speaking to children, SC
careful and precise is he.
1t is exceedingly difficult to choose
an excerpt, there are so many finely
written pages of GLORIOUS patches of
purple prose-" as someone has said
Yet to fulfill the writer's intention
in starting this department, select.
ion must be made. So here goes:
Il am going to quote only few
lines from the piece called Amelia, .
by Coventry Patmore. This piece is
the story of an evening spent with a
sweetheart, and the lines which | am
quoting refer to the moment of tax
ing the girl home. They are now rath-
er famous:

Snowy as damask-rose and shy as
musk,
Back to her Mother, anxious in the
dusk.
And now, "Good Night"
why should the poet speak of the
girl in this way? Why does he call
her feet sacred? She has Just prom'
ised to marry him; and now she
seems to him quite divine
But he discovers very plain words
with which to communicate his fine
feelings of the reader. The street is
dim because it is night; and in the
night the beautifully dressed maiden
seems like splendid moth. In Eng
land the moths are much more beau
tiful than the true butterfly; they
have wings of scarlet and purple and
gold.
$50 the comparison, tho peculiarly
English, is very fine. Also there is
a suggestion of the moths flight.
"Now 'showy as damask-sose' is q
striking simile only because the dam.
ask-rose is wonderfully splendid
flower richest in color of all roses
in English gardens.
"'Shy as musk is rather daring
simile. Musk is a perfume used by
English as well as Japanese ladies
but there is no perfume which mus,
be used with more discretion, more
carefulness.
"'Shy as musk thus refers to that
kind of girlish modesty which never
commits a fault even by the measure
of grain a beautiful shyness in
capable of being anything but beau
tiful.' f e. S

 With both men dead or dying it became necessary for the slayers to hide the bodies and do something to make Identification impossible if they ever were discovered. To make Identification difficult, it is believed the two men were placed on the ground just at death or immediately thereafter and a tractor run oyer them.
 Federal and state officers, troops and newspaper men for weeks searched every nook and corner of the parish for a mechanical device or anything else that would have mutilated the bodies so methodically The machinery of every sawmll was inspected closely and measured to determine if any part of it could have broken the bodies at such equal distances. Nothing was found. Ex. periments with tractors have been made recently and 1t has been de- termined that a certain type would crush a body as those of Daniel and Richard were mutilated.
