WELL EQUIPPED DESK is
A LABOR SAVER IN HOME

The following article is written by
Grace Under. of the Department OF
Home Economics, State Agricultural
College, and has a helpful suggestion.
A large, roomy, well-equipped desk
is time and labor saver in organizing
and maintaining the home. Here in
fitting spaces may be kept bills and
receipts, stationery, check book, card
index of recipes, reference TO valuable
articles in current literature and other
items which the housewife chooses ia
select for filing.
The well-equipped desk is indispen-
sible in the well organized home; q
silent, cheerful, and even dependable
helper, keeping account Of expenses
giving hints on cookery, menus fol
special occasions, on clothing and
cleaning, furnishing addresses, and
supplying figures upon which to base
the next years budget, etc.
One of the secrets Of orderly living
lies in knowing how to abolish work
by the aid of the arts and inventions
now at hand. To utilize all the re-
sources Of modern science; to reduce
the drudgery of work; to relegate II
to machinery and devices is ito fres
the home-maker for the more impoor.
tant interests of home and of society
and to make her, in every sense Of thu
word, the manager Of her home. The
household desk will greatly aid In do
ing this.

A THORNLEss ROSE

(By VIM. Forncy Hovis.)
Be kind. The fault that looms 30 large
In someone else
May not be yours, but to your charge
May lie one worse.
Be gracious. It is better far
To over-praise,
Than thoughtlessly some soul to mar
With sharp reproach.
Be merciful. For after all a ~.
Is said and done, s.s-ss-J's
Who thinks he stands may shortly fall
And mercy need.
Be careful. Unwise speech will wing
Both fast and far
To unsupported reals and sting
With hurtful wound.
Be fair. Your Judgment does not close
The whole account;
Another finds high praise for those
You criticize.
In fine, the love that searches long
Some good to note
And helps to fill the world with song,
Is like the rose.
IT'S true that on one bush there grow
Both rose and thorn;
Yet, in LIES garden kind hearts know
A thornless rose.

ADULTS NEED TO WATCH
BOTH WEIGHT AND DIET

Adults would find il profitable to
weigh themselves periodically. Those
not maintaining q normal weight for
their age and height may find they are
growing too fat from over-eatinG and
hack Of exencie, while those remaining
too thin may not be eating sufficient
food or of the night kind Of food. II
time and attention are given to ad-
justing the diet, there will not be
the tendency to stor4 fat with 4 In
creasinR yeaYs--and the underweight
person may easily bring his weight
mp to what il should be by q regulated
health and food program.
A definite amount of work on the
part Of the body requires definite
food, hence the greater the activity,
ing 1t. Activity, age and size are the
most important factors affecting the
total food requirement of the body.
As man increases IN age, the food
requirements decrease One-fifth to
one-third, due to the fact that the
heart beats more slowly, breathing be-
comes less rapid and the Internal &C.
Invites in general become somewhat
slower.
As mary people do not take these
factors into consideration and con-
tinue consuming the quantity Of food
required by the active man, the less
active man naturally stores surplus
flesh and becomes fat. A person not
active when overly fat, is apt TO de-
velop certain diseases which might BE-
avoided.

THE REAL. SUCCESS

For weeks now Henry L. Stoddard, the New York editor, has been con- ducting symposium on what consti- tutes success. A summary of his pre- sentiment demonstrates that after all real success only comes to those who have developed character and a faculty to recommence and keep recommending Wealth, social position and power are only the incidental -products--the medals, prizes, call them what you may ---of the recommencing-the fresh starts taken, the revived courage to do again and keep doing.
 John MeAlpine Siddell was for nine years associate editor and for eight years editer-in- chief of monthly magazine that has thrived upon Q dis tribution of "success halos" among men in all walks of life. Mir Siddell up to the very last days of his most useful life in stimulating others to sue cess talked and wrote in the vigorous optimistic vein. He has been spoken of as the 'Buddha of the doctrine of suc- cess" yet he left an estate of less than k25. 600, which establishes that money in his opinion was only an Accessory and not success in itself--New York letter to the Philadelphia Public GT.

HAYS REPLIES TO
 MOVIE CRITICIMS
Annual Report Of New York
 Censors Called Unkind

NEW YORK. Jan. 19.--Will Hays, the little 'czar' of the movies. in d stntcnient through his offices here Sat urdas 70 hswers the unkind things that were said of the industry in the annual report of the New York motion pie tufe censorship commission.
 Tt is ridiculous to say that films gl0rify vice and make virtue unattrac- tive" said Hays, declaring that most of the slams at the movies are taken from a slant directly opposite.
 Films often show life as it is. but never with vice triumphant In fact, we are always being criticized by in- telligent people for the uniformly happy and virtudus entlinss. for pictures In this connection it is interesting to note that two of the most criticized books which have Been filmed. namely. Flaming Youth and Black Oxen. passed the New York board of censors without a cut.
 The motion picture censors natural ly made as good case for censorship as they could. You can imagine if there were censorship of the press that each year the censors would broadcast tine evils of newspapers and the thousands of headings and pictures that they had to change or delete. Considering the source. therefore, we are satisfied with the report of the commission.
 Foreign Films Unpopular
 There are several points. however, that we wish to make clear. First. it is perfectly obvious why the law against salacious plays is not effective so far
The Birmingham age-herald., 1924-01-20

skating is the '.tone" anti precision 1t gives to the muscles.
 There is no other sport which re- quires such an exnct sense of balance, n balance which must be regulated by the position of two very mobile cle- ments, the feet.
 Therefore while in other sports one may get by" with ungraeeful and awkward motion, to do 50 on roller skates means spill. Your muscles are trained to react quickly and accurate ly. This is a sure road to grace and easy carriage of the body.
 On roller skates also you can amuse yourself just exactly as you please. There is no special form to roller skat- ing outside the oft-times difficult trick of staying on the feet. One doesn't have to learn how to pose in just cer. tain way as in horseback, riding nor is it necessary to assimilate the inspir. ing information that mashie shot is made with the elbow tilted just so many degrees towards the sky.
 In roller skating you can make cir cles. do figure eights and any one of number of evolutions. If I have to look forward to type of acrobatic feat, I can center my attention on just the sort of movements that will build up the particular part of my body most affected. r
 Beyond this. however, the greatest thing about roller skating is thht it has quick reaction. If you are feeling bit stuffy or out of sorts, if you have headache or if your skin shows pallor from the wrong sort of eating, q spin around the block on the skates will help a lot.
