LISTEN WORLD!
A New Tempo
By Elsie Robinson

But nowadays you have to
step lively, mentally and physi-
cally, or you're left out Of the
procession. And it's terribly
hard, If you were born back
in '82.
That's something Mrs. Hor-
tense Rogers's children can't
understand. There are three
of them. all working, all in their
early twenties, all Live Wires.
And the amount Of ground
those youngsters cover in a day
leaves their mother breathless.
They think nothing of racing
home from the office. leaping
into evening clothes and dash
ing off to some party, sixty
miles away. They tackle every
thing in that same spirit.
1t terrifies their mother. She
can't keep up with them. She
has the constant feeling that
Something AwfulS Going to
Happen. This dashing about
without any prelimi-
nary planning or discussion
this business of being
always on the move
She Just HAS to think about
things get everything
Just So before she'll
bulge.
It drives her youngsters
frantic.
"F's heivinsake. ma" they
rave. "whatsa big fuss all about?
You'd think you were making
your last will n testament.
Why. you're just going for a
weekend. Throw something in
your bag and come along"
But Mrs. Rogers can't. for the
life of her, get the knack of just
throwing something into a bag
and coming along" Life was a
heavy, solemn performance in
her youth. She can't see that
the swift, easy movement of
modern life really means prog
resS. She views her children
with fear. They view her with
irritations..
That's why mothers who were
born back in the '80'S are having
such a hard time now.

ONCE-OVERS

.Justifying yourself. without
impressing upon yourself the
lessons you might learn from
your failures, weakens you.
Your years of experience
should make you more valu-
able to your employer and to
yourself because you have
learned how to to avoid max
ing mistakes.
But can you say that this is
true?
1t is your repetition of the
same error that makes you
inexcusable.
You may think that your su.
periors are harsh when they
reprimand you for not learning
by experience. but they are
fully justified in so doing.
Such criticism should be val
liable to you.

HE is verging on Indian

anywhere near his own age, he
would look like Gods perfect

Any blobby. red-cheeked boy

SECRETS OF
HEALTH
BY DR.. Louis e. Risch-

THE glands of internal secre-
- ton continue to be field
of fascinating inquiry.
Not only are medical men in
terested in their activity but
people at large are more and
more frequently asking what
the glands do and whether or
not their own glandular system
is out of balance.
The thyroid gland, situated
in the front of the neck, is one
Of the most important of the
glands. It manufactures a'high
percentage Of iodine and its Sc
cretions are essential in what
is known as metabolism, that
is, in the building up Of tissue
and the breaking down and
elimination of waste products.
The pituitary gland is an
other very important gland
structure. It is composed of
two lobes and a stalk and is to
be found in the skull, under
meath the brain, but connected
with it.
The front or anterior lobe of
the pituitary has to do with the
growth of bones, Very tall and
large-boned individuals proba-
bly, have an over-secretion of the
lobe, while the reverse is true
OF short, dwarfish persons. The
poSterior or rear lobe of the pit
uitary seems to stimulate the
growth of tissue and to main
tain the blood pressure.
The pineal is another gland
situated in the brain. 1t is sup
posed to be the rudimentary
third eye" of a prehistoric lob
Ster and little that is SatiSfac-
tory concerning it is known.
The SuprarenalS or adrenal
glands, one over each kidney,
are composed of two kinds of
tissue, an outside layer and an
inside core, that are antagonis-
tic to each other and therefore
tend to balance.
The suprarenal Secretions can
draw stored.up sugar from the
liver, activate the muscles. and
consequently produce more en-
ergy for body and mind. Their
influence on the general ner-
Vous system is far-reaching.
The thymus gland is largest
at birth but it gradually dimin-
ishes in size until at puberty
only a remnant is left in the
chest. 1t also has to do with
growth and its secretions in
hibit too rapid development.
The above are the most i'm
portant glands of internal Sc
cretion.
Whether gland tranSplanta-
ton for rejuvenation will ever
be successful is questionable.
But the medical profession is
becoming more and more en-
thuSiastic over the results that
may often be obtained through
proper administration of glands,
and I venture to predict that
the next ten years will see this
up-to-date form Of therapy al
most universally used.

MODERN life makes Mrs.
AVA Hortense Rogers terribly
uncomfortable. It's hard to
realize that when you look at
her. She's still fairly young
47-fashionably dressed, pretty.
good-natured, but her pleasant
smile covers a constant, secret
misery.
The times are too swift for
Hortense Rogers. They leave
her painting.
When Hortense was a girl you
could take your time about
things. 1t was a slower world,
physically and mentally. The
streets weren't full of automo-
biles nor the sky of airplaneS.
You went to places in a buggy.
and it took a long time. Just
going seven miles to the next
village meant something. And
when you went 80 miles to the
city for week, it was real
event. Nowadays people do
things so casually. Why, they
scoot off to Russia or Africa as
CareleSsly as though they were
just stepping across the street.
But then you had to do a lot of
planning. You had to wonder
who was going to water the gar
den and feed the chickens. and
Of course your clothes had to be
Just right. You couldn't drop
into any old store and pick up a
new dress those days. Nor store
a months supply of clothing in
a handbag.
Yes, folks moved slowly when
Hortense was a girl-AND
THEIR MINDS MOVED AS
SLOWLY AS THEIR BODIES.
Minds, then, weren't used to
quick changes or a flood of new
notions and experiences. They
logged along, slowly, taking
things in little, by little. It was
serious business. Making Up
Your Mind. And after you'd
made it up. you were supposed
to keep it that way. PEOPLE

PRINTS FEATURE
new DRESS STYLES

Mrs. ]. F. Cook returned Tues
day morning from a ten day trip
to the Twin Cities, where she at
tended Market Week and did her
spring buying.
The new spring dresses are very
attractive and gay according to
Mrs. Cook, bright colors being
characteristic of nearly all of
them. No one or two shades, how
ever, will predominant to the com
parative exclusion of others, and
there is a sufficient variety sc that
any type of person may choose a
color that is becoming to her in
dividual style. The blues range
from the light shades to navy;
violet and all the related shades
are good; all the lovely shades of
pink from old rose, rose through
to shell pink; rich golden brown
combined with orange will also be
popular.
When it comes to materials fiat
crepes, prints, georgettes and COM
binations will be the most popular,
printed silks in beautiful patterns
being seen o%ftenest. when in
doubt choose print" says Mrs.
Cook.
The newest style show flares,
Grapes, bows-anything to get
away from the straight line effect
which was so popular a season or
two ago. One of the newest is a
high wasted tight bodice in
basque effect with faring skirt.
Large round collars and clever
jabots are shown on some of the
dresses. Spring styles for day
time wear show long sleeves,
though later in the summer sleeve
less gowns will be shown. En-
semble costumes are very popular
again this year.
Hats for early spring are small
and close fitting, although there
is enough of variety of line to be
becoming to all faces. Combin-
atoms showing the metallic note
are good. One of the very newest
ideas is a hat of printed silk with
a scarf to match.
Mrs. Cook brought back with
her a number of beautiful after
noon and evening gowns, as well
a big assortment of hats.

week of the County Commission
ers held in Sidney, an order was
issued to the county attorney to
disincorporate the town of Lam
