Will Rudolph Valentino do for the Rus

Meaning. will he make US think Of the
romantic male when a Russian is men
toned?
Ever since Rudolph slided through The
Four Horsemen" and cut a great big niche
for himself in the cinema hall Of fame we
have thought of Spaniards and Argenti-
mans whenever the discussian led to heart
fiutters. We even think Of "sheiks" as
being of Latin persuasion. And it doesn't
take an ethnographer to tell you that
zeal desert brand of sheik isn't Latin.
All of which speculation is due to the
fact that Valentino is appearing as a

Child's Health
Maintained by
Wholesome Diet

Modern educators are leaning more
each year to the old Greek idea Of
rearing the citizens of the future
They are working on the principle of
"a sound mind in a sound body"
Good health is built primarily on
the foundation of right food. The
sort of food the child has determines
to large extent the fitness Of the
man or woman.
Children have to be taught to like
the foods that are good for them much
in the same way that they have to be
taught arithmetic and history. Boys
and girls are not born with any par
ticular desire for cereals or for bread.
It's up to their parents to see that
they learn the rudiments Of a bal
anced diet and the reason for such a
diet. Firmness and patience are
often necessary in the teaching, but
the job must be done.
Many mothers unconsciously put
their children under health handicaps
by allowing them to use their own
discretion in the matter Of eating
candy, fruit, nuts and cookies BY so

Hemisphere by affecting hoop
skirts, bustles, chignons, nets, SUE
perflous founces, cameo brooches,
pill-box hats and useless parasols.
They certainly did carry much
strange rigging and were encour-
aged to perfect themselves in SIM
pering affectations of speech and a
snow-white innocence which now
seems positively antediluvian.
"And the beaux of that remote
yesterday! Ringlets and hair-oil,
gates-ajar collars and huge padded
cravats, spring bottom trousers
and box-toed boots! Derby hats
lined with puckery silk, resembling
the interior of child's coffin!"
His character thus established,
Ade proceeds to the manners and
customs the poses and pretenses
that governed their existence.
With a ruthless realism that strips
all illusion and romance from the
crudities and inanities of America
in the Victorian era, he builds
up, by contrast, compelling con-
viction that today is, after all,
about the best time in the worlds
history in which to live. And as for
the lapper-well, if there is any
fault to be found with her, Ade
holds. the "mushy seventies" are
to blame. For, he says, "the flap
per of today is simply the symbol
of extreme reaction against the
twittering mushiness Of fifty years
ago."
Newark leader. ([Newark, Ohio]) 1917-1946, 1926-09-17

George Ade, beau bachelor of
Hoosier bellies letters, is the latest
of the literati to declare war on
"The Good Old Days..
In effect, Ade has decided that
while they may now be old they
never were so very very good, and
that fifty years ago, when legs
were limbs and were not mentioned
much less revealed in public, there
were lot of things hidden besides
human anatomy.
Pondering the visible virtues and
alleged vices of the present gen.
Grafton, as bachelor of his years
is apt to do. AIDES memory recent
ly reverted to the days of his ado
lescence. The result of this retro
spection is an article appearing in
the September number of Hearst's
international Cosmopolitan maga-
zine under the title "The Mushy
Seventies" The picture he draws
of the beaux and bellies of that
day, their customs and their CO.'S
tunes, make the short-skirted,
frank-spoken fiapper of today
and even the drugstore "sheik"-
appear as the superlative products
of evolution.
81 couldn't forget the seventies

the time VIXEN our so-called civili-
zation arose to the sublimest peak

doing they set precedent in the
matter of other foods and make the
teaching of good nutrition harder.
One or two articles are not enough
to supply a childs needs for a meal.
In order that there be normal devel-
opment, there must be variety.
Fresh eggs, whole cereals, fruits in
season and leafy vegetables should
occupy an important part in the grow
ing child's dietary. Then, too, GER
tain amount of concentrated food is
necessary for children, because rapid
growth whets their appetites to a
razor edge, so that they crave more
food than their systems can well dis
pose of. Evaporated milk, diluted
with orange juice as drink, or in
custards or other baked foods, Is es-
pecially beneficial for the growing
child for the reason that 1t is concen-
trated to double the richness of or
binary cows milk and is entirely
sterile as well. The can of evaporated
milk solves the problem of obtaining
perfectly pure milk, as well as the
problem of lack of refrigeration facil-
tiles, since this type Of milk will keep
indefinitely in the can.
