Looking into the future, noted American Scientist recently advanced the remarkable statement that "A study of the sductless (endocrine) glands will likely lead to some 'reagent,' which, properly supplied to the human system. will maintain the vigor of youth far beyond three- score ars-and-ten-not only physi- cal vigor, but the power--more im- portant to maintain-which enables men &and women. too) to work long, CT hours and withstand fatigue, after they have reached the mental prime of life"
 Working along these lines, a Kan- sas City Chemist has developed a for mula incorporating what is claimed to be this very agent. This remark able invigorator is found in the ex- tract from the bark of an African tree.
 This wonderful extract, combined with other proven tonics and stimulants, has been placed within the reach of all in the the trade name of RerBild Tabs. They are intended to act directly, on the ductless (endocrine) glands by stimulation of the central nervous system.
 If you have such symptoms as sieepless- ness general debility. poor meniory, nerve weakness, loss of energy and other condi- ttons commonly characteristic of prema- ture or advancing age, try Re-Bild Tabs today.

What can a mother do to make her daughter popular?
 was asked the other day what a mother could do to gain popularity for her dcbutante daughter. am quite ready to acknowledge that a mother can do great deal for her daugh- ter. But. much as a mother might wish to achieve popularity for her child, l think that is one thing she cannot be expected to do. Popularity cannot be forced. A girl either is popular or she isn't. It would be difficult to say just why some girls are popular. and just as difficult to say why others are ignored
 In years gone by, the call of duty was more strongly felt by the young dancing man than it is now. At the end of dance, he could return his partner to her chaperon and go his way. In those days, the mother could force a superficial and short-nved popularity for her daughter by steady, enjoyable entertaining. {. But since the discarding of the chaperon the young man is afraid of getting stuck" if he is dutifully pleasant to some unknown or unpop- ular girl. Even if she was his hos tess few nights before. he is usu- ally ready to shirk if possible. En- tertaining will help, of course, in bringing the girl return invitations to large parties. This used to mean, as q matter of course, one duty dance with every man who had been en- tertained at her house. Now. with no convenient chaperon to fly to, there is no one to help her. She must stand on her own two feet.
 O O O
 The ChnperOn As Guardian Angel.
 It has struck ma lately that the passing of the individual chaperon. the guardian angel, is but another phase of the entire change in the girl of today in comparison with the girl of yesterday--a far-distant yes- terday. First departed the shrinking violet, with her traditional mysteries or fainting oh every possible occa- sion Many of these Shrinking vio- lets" were exactly as capable and as cool-headed as the girl of the present day, but it was fatal to allow that to appear.
 Next departed the individual guar dian, or chaperon, but supposedly each girl was more or less under the care of some older lady at the party. Now the girl stands alone-with the possible exception of maid some- where in the offing to escort her home. She must fight her own bat ties.
 The only possible way I can see in which a mother can help her daugh- ter on the road to popularity is through her fnfluence on the girl in the years prior to her debut. Even in this she cannot do very much. It
The Birmingham age-herald., 1924-01-06


 is hard to name any quality that makes for popularity with the very young, except natural qualities A girl who is well-read and educated, interested and informed on ques- uons of importance. appreciative. a good listener and conversationalist, would no doubt be attractive to a few people. But I think I am not wrong in saying that these things really have nothing at all to do with general popularity.
 In addition to helping her daugh- ter to attain some of these qualities, of course mother who can afford 1t will provide her with pretty clothes. Pretty clothes are delight full, but not all-important. The girl who has them will be admired when she enters room. but in the race for popularity they will not make up for other deficiencies. Tremend- ously more important than clothes more important even than a pretty face-is the indeflnable thing we call charm.
 Dancing Greatest Aid To Popularity.
 If the girl has natural endowments, the mother can help to develop them If she is good at sports, she can be given lessons in them; If her appear ance is her best asset, the mother can help her to make the most of it. She can have her taught to- dance well. Perhaps dancing Is the great est factor of all in the popularity of the present-day debutante; also per- maps the most difficult to teach un- less one has natural talent.
 One thing to be impressed on every girl who longs for popularity. is the importance of aDpea rfnp a anusad N,, matter how bored she may be. she must seem to be enjoying herself!
 After all. it is very little that a mother, or anyone else, can do to acquire popularity for the debutante. 1t is up to her alone, and much more likely to come to her if she does not worry about 1t.

SIGMA TAU TOSSERS

COLLEG EPARK. Nd, March s.
Sigma Tau Alpha basketers today are
