Psychology tells US that one

It in exaggerated form. That is
why we are usually sentimental
when we fall in love for the first

TIHERE is a no more practical
j question than that Of the
proper feeding of school boys.
Practically all the dietaries IN
use, not only in institutions, but
also in individual homes, are
based on standards that have
only custom to commend them,
and on insufficient or unproVen
data.
The question, however, has
been gone into more systemati-
cally and made the subject OF
formal report by the Medical Re-
search Council Of Great Britain.
These investigations were car
ried out during the four years
beginning December, 1921, at a
colony of some 500 boys, housed
in a model settlement of the villa
type with 80 to 80 boys in each
house. Sleeping and living &C.
commodations were excellent, as
well as control and discipline.
Leave Of absence was allowed in
August, and at Christmas, but
few boys took it, and so the
experiments were practically un-
broken for four years.
The boys were of the found.

"WoMEN's Work" Its "
w funny little phrase-a mis-.
leading one. For in spite Of
feminine success in the occupa-
tions once belonging exclusively
to men, it still calls up a vision
of the tasks allotted womankind
back in the old days.
Homework, cooking, domestic
service, nursing, dressmaking and
hat making, school teaching.
These made up the sum of
"Women's Work" even sales
women were looked upon as
somewhat daring and radical adj
venturers into an unknown
realm. And the first girl stenos-
rapher probably was a sensa-
ton, although stenography long
has been classed as "Woman's
Work"
Just how far women have got
away from what that meant is
shown by three remarkable clubs
recently organized in London.

The great truth that love and
marriage give the privilege OF low

ever.
We are surely entering on the
golden age of marriage, because
we are making study of mar
