MORE than 20 years ago a
lVx young man took charge OF
a. school way out in the noun
tains. The building in which he
taught was not even "a little Red
Schoolhouse." 1t was an I'M
painted, dilapidated room, which
one entered by means of block
steps. There was an old stove in
the center of the room; a rough
blackboard across the front end
and plenty of cracks for ventila-
ton.
Most Of the children had read
ers and spoilers. Some of them
a.. had arithmetics and two or three
of them were the proud possessors
of geography or history texts.
But Willis Sutton had been taught
that a good workman never. COM
planned of his tools.
He conceived the idea OF teach
ing his pupils the geography of
the country b means of a school
made map. This map was laid off
on a six-acre tract. The boys dug
channels for the rivers; and with
rocks built ranges OF mountains
to scale. Lakes, bays and places
Of outstanding interest were
shown in similar manner. The
State lines and the location Of the
principal cities We're indicated with
appropriate markers.
Every pupil in school felt a
keen interest in their map Of the
United States: and those who took
part in making it glowed with
pride whenever it was mentioned.
In the course Of this map-build-
ing the pupils also learned some
thing Of geology from the rocks
and minerals.

CUPPOSE it's twins! One in
- every hundred births is. Ire
land averages higher-one pair
for every ~ births.
Twins run in families. A mother
who has twins is likely to bear
more twins. She is called ''re-
peater.'' She probably inherits
twin capacity-and transmits it.
Her anatomy is such that twins
are possible. That she bears
afwins only one-fifth of the time
9is probably due to her own in
Nernal weakness. Twins occur
also in other mammals that ordin.
arily bear but one individual at a
time. Triplets occur once in
every 1000 births; bankruptcies,
only once in every $1,000 births.
There are two kinds of twins:
twins: identical twins. The first
typk develops independently from
two ova that happen to mature at
the same time. Each Ovum de-
veIops it's own chOrlon and pla-
centa-though the two placentas
may partially fuse. They are not
true or Identical twins, merely
accidents as to time of birth.
Both may be boys or girls, or
they may be brother and sister.
They vary as brothers and sisters
OF family normally vary.
Identical twins are always OF
the same sex: either both boys or
both girls. They develop from a
single ovum, in the same chorion,
and receive fnod and oxygen
through the same placenta, to
which each is attached by it's own
umbilicus.
There need be no doubt as to
whether twins are just twins or
identical. If identical, they are
always of the same sex and there
is only one placenta; if there are
two placentas, or IL they are OF
different sex, they cannot be true
twins.
Sometimes identical twins are
so alike that only a string around
the thumb. or some such device,
will enable the mother to dis
tinguish one from the other.
1t was formerly held that identi-
cal twins, triplets. bankruptcies, etc.
resulted from multiple fertilization
of one ovum. But twins and mon
STEERS can be produced artifically
in biologic laboratories. Fish
monsters can be grown from eggs

sters of all sorts have been grown
by separating the young embryo
into two or more parts. Perfect

teaching has tremendous appeal.
And zest, earnestness, common
sense never fail to get results.
There was once fifth grade
teacher who told her pupils this:
There may be one boy in this
class who will never go to school
any more after this year. That
sometimes happens. / am trying
every day to teach you as much
as l possibly can. And I want
you to work and study just as
though you had to learn enough
this year to begin your business

Those boys caught the spirit of
that suggestion; and it worked
wonders.

TNE1E other day a wind from
the South seemed the first,
faint harbinger OF lgpringtfme,
even though it had a cold tang
from blowing over northen tracts
of ice and snow. It reminded me
that women OF northern chimes

In general which is even now be-
ing enjoyed by sojourners in the
sunny Southland.
Winter sports are wonderful
aids to beauty But too few Of
us take advantage of the op.
portunity they offer for outdoor
life. Many women hug the fire,
grow fat and lazy, then wonder
why they look so impossible IN
one-piece bathing suit when late
spring comes along.
The most serious crime
woman can commit against beauty
Is to let herself go. Laziness
accounts for many a blotched, sal
low complexion, shuffling walk,
slouching carriage, as well as for
struggling hair and duh eyes.
Artificial aids to beauty cannot
conceal nor can stimulants re-
store this loss of natural lowell
ness and vivacity.
Why do you not begin today to
become as healthy, vigorous and
beautiful-as perfect in every way
las Nature intended you to be!
incidentally, you will be prepar-
ing yourself to look your loveliest
In your new spring outfit.
Everyone of importance now

Make out a health and beauty
regimen for yourself, then stick to
IT. Let your regimen include set
ting-up exercises, a daily bath,
daily walk, eight hours of sleep
and simple, well-balanced meals
adapted to your own way OF liv-
ing. Choose exercises that will
tend to bring symmetry to what

IL you can manage to work for

you should find yourself in won
derfuI trim for spring frocks and
spring bathing suits. The director
will give you just the special work

Your skin needs its maximum
