Boys will be boys; but what kind of

the problem that faces parents and

It's hard Job at best Parents and

The question as to Just how much or

interest to every woman.
Ideally ones muscles should be so
firm and we'll formed that they need
no constructing bands to bind them
down. Young girls and athletic young

Business Women
 Are Handicapped
Their Tendency to Detail
 Matter is Difficult.

Women should be willing to serve an apprenticeship before ex- pecting an executive position," de- clared Mrs. E. Nj. Statler, widow of the founder of the Statler hotels who. at his death was made presi- dent of the chain.
 Men are not apt to feel fitted for positions of responsibility without knowing something of the job" she said. That is an attitude women should acquire. If women did have it, less fuss would be made about whether a man or a woman held this position or that.
 Il think the attitude of women is because they are so new in business they do not realize it's qualifications. Heretofore many socially prominent women, thrown into the business world by reverscs comparatively late in life. felt that their experience in life enabled them to walk into a po- sition of authority.
 The type of executive work one wants should determine the kind of apprenticeship" Detailing work to others seems to be hard for women. l think it is the home and mother instinct working in us that makes us good on details and loath ta>surren- der them to others. which must hap pen if one is real executive"

Bitter Girls
 Are Given Care
Albion State School Shows
 Them the Way.

Albion, x. r., June 2S R-Pro- yiding pessmistic stories with hap py endings is the function of q school here that is considered a model in reforming human lives.
 To the Albion State Training school come girls who are bitter against world that'they have found cruel and sordid.
 Most of them have had pretty raw deal in life; few of them have ever known kindness or considcra- tion from anyone,' says Frs. Flora P. Daniels, superintendent of the school for q dozen years. Here they find that we are eager to help them and that we treat them as fel- low human beings. No one can keep on feeling bitter when she finds only kindness surrounding her."
 The institution with it's 92 acres of fertile farm land. broad campus and stately trees and homelike brick buildings was called reformatory before the name was changed to training school" Mrs. Daniels felt that one name might breed humili- ation, the other self respect. The state legislature agreed with her.
 Under her charge girls who can not read or write are given the ru- ailments of education. Others are taught to be efficient housekeepers. Those who show aptitude for busi- hess are given q, course in book keeping, stenography and typewrit- ing.
 Youthful costumes and bobbed hair are the fashion at this school. where the age limit is ] 6 to 30. Ar ter the adaptation in the "Reception House" the girls join the groups in the eight cottages that house Is or 19 girls each. In nursery cottage mothers keep their babies with them. When they leave, Mrs. Dan iels says, the mothers cling to their children no matter how adverse the circumstances.
 Administration building, hospital, school building and chapel make up building also is the recreation cen ter, for the gymnasium is in the basement. Beside gym classes, 1t is the scene of dancing Friday nights and parties on holidays which even paroled girls and former inmates at tend.
 The girls are helped in establish ing themselves in the outside world.

The Heart Story
 of 8 Steadfast Woman
Loves Awakening

thies thoroughly enlisted for her l had counseled her against going back home.
 That would be the most foolish thing you could do," l told her, Your personal problems haven't been altered by this thing except that you need no longer fear Serg- l jus. And your mother will some time send you the message which you have asked her to put in the per- sonal columns of the New York newspapers. the assurance that you need not marry King Albert. Then you can go home"
 But as the days went on. I had felt less sure that she would go home even if her mother should re- lent. For her infatuation for Noel Neritzen was as strong as was the fantastic determination of the young yiolinist's father that his son should marry Olina, the daughter of the woman whom Philip Neritzen had worshiped in his strangely shadowed youth.
 At Olina's kiss and embrace of me, at the beaming fatuous approv- a! of her every action in Philip Yer itzen's eyes, and at the bewildered. almost suffering expression in the dark eyes of his son, I felt again the fantastic sense of something electric in the very atmosphere surrounding these three strangely assorted peo- pie. But Olina gave me little time for reflection.
 II really didn't mean to come to- day." she said, flor l don't believe Mrs. Bickett approves of having people around these days. But when Mir. Neritzen came and wanted me to come oyer with him and Noel. was-how do you say it here-'plum tickled pink and l lost no time in accepting their invitation. l do hope it's all right, and how is Junior?"
 It's perfectly all right" I as- sured her heartily. I'm very glad you could come over, and Junior is getting along beautifully. He hasn't been permitted to get out of bed yet, but he has been sitting up and listening to stories,'
 "Oh, I'm so glad. But'-she turned with pretty apology to Philip Neritzen. I've been rattling on so that poor MT. Nertzen hasn't had chance even to say How do you do!' And he has brought the most marvellous things for Junior.'

Arteries Harden
 as Body Ages
This Is Sign of Wearing
 Out of Tissues.
By Dr. Morris Fishbein Editor Journal of the American Medical Association and Of lily. geta, the Health Magazine.

Mc01Cal Association and Ot lily. geta, the Health Magazine. The arteries are the blood vessels that carry the blood directly from the heart to the farthest part of the body.
 In order for the circulation to go
 on, the blood must leave the heart
 with a considerable amount of pres sure. The walls of the blood vessels
 are composed of muscle and of elaS-
 tic tissue.
 There is about twice as much elas-
 tic tissue as muscle in the largest
 arteries and much less in the small
 CT ones. The amount of stretching in
 the vessels and the amount of resist
 ance to the passage of the blood
 stream are factors which influence
 to some extent the blood pressure. The Price Of Age AS the human body becomes older the elastic tissue of the blood vessel walls tend to diminish both in amount and it's ability to stretch.
 exactly as the rubber in any elastic
 preparation tends to weaken with age.
 As the elastic tissue reaks down. its place is taken by other fibers known as fibrous or connective tis-
 sue. AS these develop in the walls of the blood vessels. the walls be- come thickened and resist stretch
 ing.
 Naturally this resistance to stretching tends to raise the blood pressure. It is one of the reasons for
 the gradual rise in blood pressure
 as the human body becomes older. This process is not, however. the same as the hardening Of the arter- ies that is sometimes called by the technical name 'arteriosclerosis." In that condition there is a deposit in
 the walls of the blood vessels of sub stances which indicate degeneration
 and breaking down of the tissue.
 Under such conditions fatty ma terials deposit and also calcium salts. Such qualification tends to
 strain a blood vessel which resfsts even more the necessary stretching
 associated with the passage of the blood, and therby brings an ex- tremely high blood pressure. ApOplcxy When the current Of blood IS sluggish in its flow or when 1t is ln-
 terfered with by inflammation of the { blood vessel wall, blocking Of the vessel may take place. Sometimes the blood vessel breaks and If 1t breaks in the brain the person has apopleXy.
 Apparently many causes are asso- ciated with the changes that go on
 ir the blood vessels and with the
 bringing about of high blood pres
 sure.
 All of these causes are of the type that put increased wear on the hu-
 man body either by overwork or by the production of poisons which are
 difficult for the tissues to handle. The control of such conditions de-
 pends on a suitable hygiene through
 out life.

Mary Pickford
 and Her Clothes
She Seems to Like Sports
 Togs Best.

Paris. June SS lR,-Mary Pick ford, who says she Hikes sports clothes best" confirmed the state ment when she left Paris after her recent trip by taking home large assortment.
 Her first choice was a blue and cream plaid lightweight wool from Patou. set on yoke at the shoul- ders, with buttons the entire length. the blouse with tncrusta- tons and the skirt pleated.
 Next came d white crepe satin made up on the flat side and trim med with the shiny. A checkered pattern in black and white trims ths sleeves, pockets and three V bands on the collar.
 Plain jersey in golf blue made into q pleated skirt and three but ton coat with blouse and white collar and vest showing an en- broidery motif was another choice.
 For variety Miss Pickford added evening coat trimmed with white fox fur and incrustations, blue printed chiffon evening dress and beige satin lounge pajalnas with unusually long trousers.
 From the Jenny collection Miss Pickford selected d grey crepe de chine dress with a full. scalloped skirt s"t on the dress with scal- lop"1 yoke. The belt ties at the front of a fluffy bow. The sleeves have appliqued trimming and the snug collar ties at the neck. Blue and lavender crepe de chine in a square print design with pleated skirt and flouhce at the bottom of the blouse was picked out for infor- maj afternoon wear.
 Miss Pickford's visit was slightly marred by the question, ITO bob or not 10 bob?" She found short hair predominating in Paris.
 Incidentally. she refuses to try on clothes. She IS so tiny that she is simply lost in the smallest manne- quin size.
