school at Boston University. Some
seventy married women have
registered for the course which is
designed to teach them how to be-
come even better halves"
Ten AntidOtes
The instructors ten antidotes for
the perils of propinquity are:
1. Be orderly.
Q. Don't be neat.
8. Teach your husband to enjoy
his home.
4. Be efficient enough to have
plenty Of leisure.
8. Learn to relax.
g. Do your work sitting down.
z. Wear an afternoon dress, not
an apron, when husband comes
home.
8. Don't do unnecessary work in
the evening.
8. Keep your house peaceful.
10. Don't scold your husband
when he drops ashes on the rug.
"There is a great distinction be-
tween neat and orderly" Mrs.
Macdonald told her class.
Neatness By-PrOduct
"Let neatness be merely a by
product Of order Always subordi-
nate that factor so that no one will
suspect that you are one of those
neat women 'Neatness' has bro
ken up many a pleasant home.
Learn to relax. You must learn
how to have leisure. Do your wash
ing and ironing sitting down. Don't
be one Of the women who are for
ever complaining about standing on
their feet all day. Remember that
being on ''our feet all day isn't the
same thing as taking a walk.
when you relax, let the chair
hold you up instead Of your hold
ing the chair up. And when you
lie down to go to sleep the same
principle applies. The bed will hold
you up. The only way to go to sleep
after days work is to let the mus
cles relax"

Adleril1a differs from most medi-

spoonful STOPS GAS, and relieves that

eat better and sleep better. Even if
bowels move daily, Adlerika brings
out much additional poison which
you never guessed was in your sys-
tenn and which may have long caused
trouble. No matter what you have

FINE ROAD CONDITIONS
PREVAILING In GRAND
CANYON NATIONAL PARK

GRAND CANYON, Nov. Especial
to the Dispatch CLEAR, dry weather,
combined with the most satisfactory
road conditions so far this year, has
resulted in unprecedented auto travel
to the Grand canyon national park
since October, it was announced by
G. C. Bolton, acting superintendent,
here today.
The park record books show that
up to and including October "a, a
total of 1,948 autos had entered the
park compared to LAG last year, an
increase of 50 per cent.
1t is interesting to note that two
while last year at this time barely
one-half were travelling in tnis di-
Iection. Heavy Mestbound travel at
this time of the year means heavy
return travel next spring and indica-
tons are consequently bright for a
record tourist season next summer.
Bolton also stated that due to the
danger of supply. pipes freezing, the
water will be turned off IN the public
auto camp at park headquarters
about November 1, and campers ar
irving at the park after that date
will have to purchase water or carry
their own supply in with them.
Tt is interesting to note that the
government furnished visiting motor
lists with S2,562 gallons of pure water
during the past season while 60
large truck loads of wood were haul
cd in fer use OF campers.
All roads entering the park are in
good condition as are the drives with

Gr.ve is open at all times Of the
year and motorists entering the park
are able to view the canyon from this
great scenic highway any day of the

tions.
