She Wants Him Back.

Phyllis is miserable because she's
lost Dexter. It's all her own fault
And she wants him back so badly.
It's all her own fault because she
was a very wicked girl. She'd JUS
been working for few months wher
one of the women at her office asked
her to come up and spend the eve
ming at her house.
The older woman had been nice tC
Phil and she thought it would be goof
policy to accept the invitation. Ac
cordingly she told Dexter that she was
going to have n Quiet dinner with Mrs
R. and would he please come and
call for her at about 10?
Dexter was willing. He'd date
that evening with some boys, but he'd
break away and come to get her.
At Mrs. RS. house Phil found her
self in a new and strange atmosphere
Mrs. RS friends were of the flashH
type-noisy and ribald in the laughter
and jokes.
Phil was embarrassed. but de
terminedly friendly. Nor did she re
fuse the drink offered her. although
1t burned her throat and made her
eyes water.
The rest of the crowd got fairly
tipsy. and when at 10 Dexter appeared
on the scene the apartment had al
the earmarks of a wild banquet hall
Dexter took one look at the crowd
gave one contemptuOus sniff in Phil's
direction. for it was evident that the
inexperienced girl had been imhibing,
and left. And has never come back
and never will come back. That's the
way he feels.
Poor Phil, She wants him back.
She wants to explain. She wants
him to realize that it was all an acci-
dent. that she had just one drink that
she never meant to, etc.
Dexter won't listen. What shall
she do? The only thing for her to dc
is sit tight and wait.
That. | know, is the hardest advice
IN the world to follow, hut only
through a policy of watchful waiting
will she show wisdom and judgment
For unless Dexter comes back OF
his own free will-comes back be
cause he loves her so much that he s
willing to ask for an explana ton
she can never find happiness with
him.
Any man. who would. without
giving girl one single chance. simply
dash away from her with never a
backward look, is either a stiff-necked
prig or doesn't care as much as he
should.
If he's the priggish type-so prig
gish that his morals won't permit his
hearing an eXplanation--Phil is we'll
rid of him. even though she doesn't
believe it right now.
The man who is so intolerant as to
refuse to listen to an explanation isn't
likely to make a good husband
On the other hand. If his sudden
squirt away from her shows indiffer
ence, she is lucky to have this indica
ton of it before she marries him. II
he loves her as he should. he will
come back and ask humbly for what
ever excuse she has to make
II he is broadminded and fair, he
will give her her chance.
And If, as she waits and yearns
there is no word from him, she must
take comfort from the bitter fact that
her man was not worthy of the love
She gave him.
That may be small comfort now, but
it will give her courage to start over
again

your hands with gloves when the

Ella ID. N.-Any good honey almond
lotion will help smooth the skin on
hands like yours. If your hands do
not look firm and youthful with this
treatment. try massaging them with
a nourishing cream before going to
bed, and wear loose gloves over
night to protect the bed linen. Using
cream on your face at night has
nothing to do with the blackheads.

Large Joints.

Enlarged joints come from several
causes. Gout will cause them, and if
this is so, the condition must be
treated medically But often the
joints of the fingers become tempo
rarily enlarged because the hands are
used cOnstantly-playing the piano,
or using a typewriter, for instance.
This can be cured by using the hands
less if possible. or by massage.
You might try this one. Hold one
hand out straight, and limp. Put the
large and the ring finger of the other
hand-second and third fingers that
is-under the palm of the hand. This
brings the thumb up over its back.
Now stroke with the thumb over the
back of the hand toward and over
the knuckles. You can let the mas
saged hand lie Imply in your lap
while YOU do this. Practice it for
three or four minutes. morning and
afternoon. and be gentle--rough mas
sage will only make the knuclles
larger.
Take each finger in turn between
the thumb and foEefinger of the other
hand and stroke it up and down.
Another very good exercise for large
joints, recommended particularly for
people with a tendency to gout, is to
spread out the fingers and thumbs of
the hands and draw them back into a

Now, there always had been a great
many chestnut trees and, of course,
that had meant a great many chest
nuts. There were not so many hick-
Ory trees or beech trees. All of them
liked beechnuts, but so did great
many other people. Buster Bear liked
beechnuts; Mr.. and Mrs. Grouse
liked beechnuts: Lightfoot the Deer
liked beechnuts; Bobby Coon liked
beechnuts; so there really were not
enough beechnuts to go around. Be
sides, it was slow work storing away
enough beechnuts to last all Winter.
There were not SO many looking for
hickory nuts. but neither We're there
so many nuts. In fact, it was a very
poor crop. SO there was real reason
for the Squirrel cousins to worry.
Now Happy Jack the Gray Squirrel
and Rusty the Fox Squirrel were the
biggest of the Squirrel cousins. Little
Striped Chipmunk didn't stand any
show at all against them. But though
the others were so big, Chatterer the
Red Squirrel was more than a match
for them. Chatterer is a fighter and
he can move SO much more quickly
than his big cousins that he had no
fear of them. So Chatterer felt quite
equal to getting his share of the hick-
ory nuts. The only trouble was that
While he was carrying away a nut to
his own storehouSe, Happy Jack and
Rusty had plenty of opportunity to get
their share. So for a while Chatterer
didn't try to store away any nuts. He
spent all his time trying to keep his
two bigger cousins from getting any
He chased them out of the best trees
and as he chased them back and forth
and round and round, jumping from
branch to branch. they managed to
shake down some of those hickory
nuts.
Now Striped Chipmunk took no part
in the quarrel He doesn't like to
climb trees. anyway. But there is
nothing stupid about Striped Chip
munk While he took no part in the
quarrel between Chatterer and the
bigger cousins, he missed no chance
to keep that quarrel going. You see,
Striped Chipmunk was worrying about
his own Winter food supply. but he
knew he wouldn't have TO worry long
If only he could keep that quarrel 60
ing. AS long as his cousins raced
around up in those treetops and
knocked down the hickory nuts, he
could fill his storehouse rapidly. And
this is just what he was doing. He
always took care to keep out of sight
as much as possible. but whenever a
fat hickory nut fell. Striped ChipmunR
was pretty sure to have it inside of a
few minutes. Meanwhile. the days
were growing colder and the hickory
nuts were growing scarcer, and the
Squirrel cousins were worrying more
and more, all except Striped Chip

Greater cooperation between the
larger industries and the state de-
partment of vocational education with
the aim of training people through
the public schools of Arizona for q
higher grade of work in state in
dustries, is being sought by educa-
tors, according to A. M. Davis, head
of the state department of indus
trial education who is visiting in this
section.
Davis is finishing a program Of
conferspces and training classes in
Bisbee and this city where he has
been active supervising the foremen's
training gatherings and meetings of
industrial instructors
An extensive program has been
utlined Davis stated, to train men
in industrial work which will fit
them for better positions and at the
same time benefit the state indus
tries by furnishing them finer en-
ployes. The mining industry being
the most, extensive industry in the
state and employing the greatest
umber of men in a variety of inn
ortant fields, is being accorded first
onsideration in the vocational work,
while agriculture is to be taken up
in many of the farming sections of
Arizona, Davis remarked.
THE fundamental principal under
lying the program, in his opinion, is
t. furnish the employers those work
ers who are trained in technical sub
jects which may require worker
to have more than just an ordinary
industrial education
If the. industries of the state need
mechanics, welders, electricians or
carpenters, it is to the interests of
the working men and to the indus
tries concerned, if we are able 70
include such training in the night
schools or regular day schools.
1T is useless to give industrial
education in the schools which does
OF fit the students to occupy posi-
tions in the same line of work in
he industry itself
"The cooperation of the mining
companies both in this district and
in other parts of the state where the
work has been done has greatly help
ed the extension of the program.
Trained instructors taken from the
been furnished to act as teachers in
night schools and the companies have
displayed Willingness to recognize
the ability of the workers who> have
improved their ability through sup
plmentary training in the schools, .
according to Davis.
The foremen's. conferences, he ex-
planned, are incidental to the improve
ment of efficiency in the industries.
The foremen and shift bosses of the
company are gathered together in
small groups for the discussion Of
problems incidentaI to, the positions
of leadership which they occupy.
They have been held previously at
Morenci, and the state industrial ex-
perts now are planning to go to Globe,
Miami Jerome and Clarksdale for
similar conferences.

cipally agriculture and letar the
