character analyst would have said
that the faculty of veneration was ex.
ceedingly small in the boy. Venera-
tion and respect for our elders and
for religious teachings are the chief
functions of the faculty of veneration.

DIARY OF A
NEW FATHER
BY ROBERT f.. DICKSON.

Sunday Night.
The Stewards, who are what | do
not like about this apartment becaus
they live across the hall, came over to
see us this afternoon because they
cannot stay at home by themselves or
they would. kill each other, and if they
did you could not blame them. And
they have joined a4Se bSidge club that
Joan has joined ftn us. and that means
every second Tuesday evening we will
have. to be where they are, and that
leaves me a possible 13 nights in each
two weeks that will be worth living.
/ stood them for a few minutes. and
then I said: ''WelI, / guess l will
take the baby out for a buggy ride"
And Mr. Stewart said: "I will come
along with YOU" And / said: "I
guess | won't go, after ALL"
So there 7 was, doomed for an aft
ernoOn with them, and that was bad
enough by itself but then Mrs. stew
art felt she had to start something or
she would damage her reputation of
playing concert of sour notes wher-
ever she goes, and she said: What
are you going to wear to the bridge
club Tuesday night, JOAN" And Joan
said: my dear, / don't know. l sim
ply haven't a. thing" And Mrs. Stew
art said: "It will be our first night
there, and do hate to go looking so
tacky."
Mr.. Stewart said bitterly: 'Tt is a
pity about you." And / said: "Ha,
hal" sarcastically, because he has been
married two years longer than I have
and yet he does not know any better
than to encourage his wife like that
at a. time like that, and when / think
of him / realize it must be true that
it takes all kinds of people to make a
world. But the world would be better
off If it did not. and why Mrs. Stewart
married him is the hardest problem on
earth until you start to figure out
why he married her, and by that time
you should be put in a straitjacket
or you will hurt yourself.

For the first application. make the
vine of an artistic, deep shade Of
worsted or silk that contrasts in tap
estry tones with the foundation fab
ric. When embroidery is done on
linen, shades of medium may be light
and dainty. For natural-colored linen
material, a natural-toned linen thread
gives a semblance of old-time work
for table linens. A luncheon set with
a border of the vine is quickly trans.
formed from a plain set to an attrac-
lively embroidered one.
AadaptabiIity of Stitch.
Rose foliage lends itself admirably
selves are done in deep, long and short
stitch. such as the Japanese employ,
both foliage and blossoms are rapidly
worked. Irregular leaves, such as ma
pie and oak leaves, are not adapted to
cretan stitchery.
On Frocks and Lingerie.
When worked in a fine medium the
vine is charming on children's frocks
and on lingerie. 1t can be used for
landings and for trimming down the
fronts Of little dresses. 1t is exquisite

Child 9 Beauty.

There are some beauty problems
that must be treated during childhood
or early adolescence and il is for these
that the thoughtful modern mother

child herself has begun to care about
her personal appearance. her mother
should see TO the correction Of defects
that would later cause her embarrass-
ment.
Perhaps the commonest Of these
faults Is incorrect posture. II 1t is not

postures. The same may be said of

about Jimmy. IL didn't take him any
time at all to learn that just about
dusk he was pretty sure to find
plate of food waiting for him beside
the doorstep. So he formed the habit
OF coming regularly.
Later he brought Mrs. Jimmy and
the children up there. One night, just
TO see what Jimmy and his family
would do, Mother Brown set the food
inside the back shed, leaving the
outer door open. She wondered IL
they would venture inside and she
kept watch from the window. She
saw Jimmy lead the family up to the
doorstep. There was no food there for
them. Apparently. they didn't know
what to make Of it. They put their

The visits of the Skunk family to
Farmer Browns house were not en-
toyed by all who lived up there. No,
indeed. Bowser the Hound didn't ap-
prove at all; but Bowser took great
care TO voice his disapproval at a dis
tance. This Jimmy Skunk and his
family didn't mind at all. They were
aluite willing that Bowser should bark
himself sick if he wanted to, so lang
as he didn't venture too near. There
was another who didn't approve at all.
This was Black Pussy the Cat. Black
Pussy's nose was quite out of joint,
as the saying is.

Raising Of Embargo Severe
 Blow to SaCaSa

Washington, Jan. 6.-LP)-- Hope for improvement in the Nicaraguan situation, dimmed by recent vic tories of the Sacasa Liberals in their war with the American recognized conservative government of Adolfo Diaz, has been revived by the state department.
 Department officials base their be- lief that a change for the better will come about on the decision to re- store the Managua legation marine guard, and the action to permit President Diaz. under an embargo placed last September. to import 1000 rifles and 160 machine guns and several million rounds of am- intuition which he purchased in the United States.
 The latter step was decided upon after Diaz had insisted that unless such material aid was forthcoming he would have to relinquish the rcigns of government to his Liberal opponent, Juan B. Sacasa, former vice president, who has set up a gov crnment of his own at Puerto Cabe- gas and who, Dia2 has repeatedly charged. is receiving arms and sup

plies from Mexico, which has recog. nized him.
 It was assumed here that Diaz would take immediate advantage ot the American action in view of his statements that his forces were in dire need of arms and ammunition. Officials would not say whether addi- tional arms shipments if requested, would be allowed to go from the United States.
 The destroyers Borie and John D. Edward were on the way to Nicara- the Whipple and Tracy. now under going repairs, in Rear Admiral Lati- mer's special service squadron. While neither are carrying an extra force of men, both are understood to have more than the regular supply of ammunition aboard.
 Word was expected momentarily telling of the arrival at Managua of the 160 marines from the U. S. S. Galveston. Decision to restore the American guard at the legation there is said to have grown out of appeals from Ma1agua diplomatic represen- tatives of Great Britain and Italy and recommendation by Admiral Latimer.
 The American naval commander, who has established neutral zones on the east coast at Puerto Cabezas and Rio Grande Bar for the protection of American lives and property, Is said by the state department to have the power to prevent the Liberals from using these zones as supply bases. Whether this authority ex- tends to the point where he could intercept arms shipments from out side Sourcesto Sacasa has not been disclosed but it is believed certain that such shipments could not be delivered by way of these zones.

Through fife Static

Conditions improved last evening
 as the hours wore along. However
 that old hammering buzz, the on
 andoff rattle, that made conditions
 so agreeable during most of last
 winter, was with us after 10 o'clock | and we gloried, as O result. Gee, il
 seemed great to be able to welcome old friends again. Otherwise, condi- | tions weren't so bad. We weren't
 able to reach out to the Coast, but
 we enjoyed excellent reception of
 nearer stations. There was some ! static.

 with its volume and steadiness. Par

As far as we were | concerned, we subsisted on a club sandwich all day yesterday. which was no fault of anyone but ourself l But let that go, we dislike to refer | to 1t.

We did our weekly turn of listen- n n oil m WTIC was silent We stepped in at 7:40 o'clock, in time to hear the last two selections by the Army band. One was "The Army, Navy and Marines" and the other, Half a Moon." The former, march, was played in thrilling style, while the | latter, popular foxtrot selection. was also well done. Tone was per feet, volume excellent, and the weather fair and cloudy. The band fore signing off.
 Then over to WNYC, New York, where the Piano Twins entertained
 with a group Of popular numbers. That was at S:05 o'clock. For a change, code did not interfere once while We listened to the program. and we were too astonished for words. Transmission was excellent and the reproduction of the pianos was good. There's only one thing we'd like changed, and that's the sadvoiced announcer they have down there. We wish someone would cheer him up, since he sounds as if he had a great, secret sorrow. All Alone Monday Blues" Precious" and "Cross Your Heart" were among the numbers played.
 
 WBZ. Springfield is becoming quite the station, since it is now taking a great number of features from WIZ, New York. Last night we heard the Yacht Club Boys, South of The Mason-DiXon Line, and that's S all. from New York. Each evening the Springfield station broadcasts several of the more important fea- lures of WIZ, and we might say that they are heartily enjoyed. WBZ' S transmission is much better than it used to be, and it now compares fla vorably with WTIC.
