I I WONpER WHO'S
KISSING HER Now


guys call up his fair Lillian or, take her
out to lunch when he isn't present. The
evenings when he hasn't an engagement
with Lillian he is imbued and distressed
with fear that she Is distributing her
attention to others. He repeats to him
self the lines of the old song, ST wonder
who's kissing her now, wonder who's
teaching her how" when the chances
are that Lillian is sitting at home, re-
pairing one of her garments and Won
dering what Joe Is doing and why he
doesn't call her up.
One day, Lillian, while walking down
F street, sees her boy friend Joe with
another girl. The truth Is that Joe
accidentally met her and will leave her
at the next intersection, but does Lii
liam believe that wild yarn? Yes, she
does-not. That evening there are
words and tears and threats Of breaking
up their affair.
Smith tells his wife that he is going
to work late at the Office. Now, Mrs.
Smith has heard some Of her bridge
club members speak about that old
bunk. "Never believe a man when he
says he Is going to work at the Office"
Therefore, Mrs. Smith, suspecting and
miserable, calls her husbands Office at
and her worst fears are confirmed. At
IL o'clock midnight Smith returns
home. Mrs. Smith is awake. She may
be fearful or angry depending upon her
disposition. Does he expect her to be-
ieve for single minute that he was
out grabbing a sandwich and cup OF
coffee at o'clock when she called him?
A pretty story. Actually that was what
Smith was doing. He had been labor
ing over his accounts and became tired
and trif1e hungry, SO ran across the
street to a one-armed restaurant. He
has told the truth. For weeks his wife
suffers and so does he. He really ought
to work tonight, but he wishes to avoid
another scene.
Sometimes ones suspicious may be
well founded. More often they are not.
Employees are frequently suspicious
Of other employees In their office. limo
cent fellow workers are silently If not
openly charged with catering to the boss
or trying to win his favor. Thus the
quality Of their work becomes impaired.
Suspicion is a cruel master.
X n X X
There Is vast difference between
suspicion and jealousy. Even animals
may be and frequently are jealous.
Dogs especially so. We recall q fine
dog whose companion was female OF
the same breed. They romped together
and occupied the same kennel in the
to erect new garage back Of the house.
It was nearly finished when workman
started to enter one morning. He
heard menacing growls from within.
Peering through the door he saw the
big white bulldog standing over the
body of his mate. When he stepped
softly inside the dog emitted a roar Of
rage, but kept his vigil over the other.
His companion had died during the
night and he decided to resist the eff
forts of any one to touch the stiffened
body of his friend.

larry, it will put OF by many years the
period when the hair gets thin and
gray.
Being stimulating it may make the
hair oily. But In any case a weekly
shampoo is not too much in the Sum-
mer. II you have dandruff Of either
the dry or oily variety you can cure it
not only by this tonic, but by rubbing
the scalp with an egg, letting it dry
and washing 1t Off with CASTLE soap and
warm water. You have another ad-
vantage In the Summer, you can ar
range the hair while wet under a cap
shaped hair net and let it dry in the
warm air outdoors or in the sun. This
Is marvelously beneficial.
Few people suffer from split ends or
knotted hair these days of bobbed
heads. Incidentally, there Is no need
to waste your money having your hair
singed when you have it washed and
trimmed; the trimming is quite enough.

One mother says: When I buy
knickerbockers for my small son ale
ways buy two alike, though sometimes
I get one pair size larger. When the
first pair Is worn out I have the good
parts Of 1t to use as patches on the
second pair. If neatly patched with the
same material and cleaned and pressed,
the Knockers are almost as good as new
and the little chap is not ashamed to
wear garments that have been patched
in this way.

important Hollywood actresses
use Lux Toilet Soap
"Charm depends on Ioveb
skin, say SO :....
leading Hollywood directors

ANY girls greatest charm is lovely
"A smooth skin. AS Howard Higgins,
Pathe director, expresses it, summing up
the experience of leading Hollywood direc-
tors: "A girls greatest loneliness is beau
tiful sldn-it is more important in girl
than wonderful eyes or beautiful mouth"
He goes on to say: 81 don't remember a
girl ever reaching screen stardom with
out a rarely lovely skin-for makeup is no
help under the all-revealing lights of the
closeup. Smooth skin is absolutely neces-
sary for popularity and loveliness.''
Because this is true, nine out of ten
screen stars use Lux Toilet Soap, and
all the great studios have made it the
official soap in their dressing rooms. In
Hollywood they have found that this de-
Gghtful soap-made by the famous French
method-keeps the skin exquisitely lovely.
IF you aren't already devoted to this
daintily fragrant, white soap, do try it
this very day. Such abundant lather! And
it keeps your skin as smooth as satin.
LoIS WILSON, Warner Brothers popular star,
says: "The satin-smooth skin that closeup re-
veals must be as lovely it looks-it is something
that even the cleverest makeup cannot fake. I'm
delighted with LUX Toilet Soap It's lovely soapl'

Certainly education pays! 1t pays
in that it makes possible the bulk so1
our great business achievements and
give US control over our rich natural
resources.
What good would it be to have
rich harvests if we had no learned
men who could make the machinery
to care for it, and provide means Of
transporting it? A wealth of miner
ais would mean nothing without The
ability to construct equipment to
mine them. Great commerce could
not be built up by people who had
only birch bark canoes or horses to
haul their goods. Education is ab-
solutely necessary for national pro-
gress!
In the sense of a dollars-and-cents
benefit, education is great advant-
tage. Each day spent in school is
equal to $50 in later life.
The effect of education upon a
mans chances for success in life. is
another proof that schooling pays.
There is a book called "Who's Who
in America" published biennially. In
1888 the editor checked over The
amount of education possessed by
20,115 people. 81 out of 100 had
more than an eighth grade education.
70 out of 100 had attended college,
and So out of 100 were college grad
yates. States with the best school
systems have the most citizens in
"Who's Who"
One must not think, however, that
education pays only to enable one
to make money or gain success end
fame. The real reward Of education
comes in understanding and appre-
citation. Education makes it posi-
BILE for one to see how one thing is
related to another. The worthy use
of leisure is taken as one of the i'm
portant goals of education. Educa-
ton pays, not merely because it gives
you the ability to read, but because
it stimulates in you the tendency to
choose good reading.
1t is not only the knowledge you
gain that makes schooling valuable;
it is also the pleasure you find in the
use you make of that knowledge.

Junior High School Notes

Mr.. Wichman gave fine inspiring
talk Wednesday morning. He spoke
of a number of observations he had
been making. One of the things he
spoke of was the care of our school.
He said, "This is the students
school and not the teachers. We are
going to get out of school exactly
what we put into it"
One thing which we have to watch
is the manner in which we conduct
ourselves. When people visit the Jun
ior High School they will judge the
kind of school by the way we act. So
students, let US watch ourselves and
see if we can't make this one of the
finest Junior High Schools in the
state. l am sure we can do it with
just little effort.
In his talk he also mentioned the
care of this wonderful building. 1t
is probably one of the finest build
ings in the State of Minnesota.
Why can't we help the janit-
ors keep our building looking respect
able? 1t is our school and we should
appreciate it. Our parents have paid
for the school and the equipment in
it. So let us remember that it is our
parents property that we are using!
Miss Aske also gave us a few
"pointers" Thursday morning that
she thought we could improve on. We
will all try and see if we can't accom-
plish something by these suggestions
Next week we are going to start
putting on a program every week
Each grade will have chance to do
something. The first program will
be one where person is picked from
each three grades. We ought to have
some very good musical programs
These programs will be given during
the twenty-minute periods.

The Minimum Essentials Test in
English was given the fifth period on
Wednesday, Jan. 80, to all the high
school students. After ten sentences,
containing commonly misspelled
words, were dictated; the students
were tested in punctuation, correct
usage of words, simple, compound,
and complex sentences, clauses and
phrases, and the parts of speech. The
results, which are not yet known,
will be published later. The stand

they have been improved this time.

A unanimous turnout of the stud
ents was seen at the free show We'd
nesday night. We find we have quite
few Scotchmen in our school.
Many of our students went to the
Lincoln School Building to see the
Art Exhibit held on January 80, 81
and Feb. 1. Reports are that it was
well worth the money and time spent
there. This opportunity is not to be
found at all times, and those who
took advantage of it will never regret
it.
The preliminary games of the girls
basket ball teams will be played on
Monday, Feb. H.. The winners of
those games will play final game
Feb. Is as a preliminary to the ST..
Peter game. In the preliminary game
the captains of the teams will draw
for their opponents.
Faculties to Speak Before Assemblies
Within the next week or two the
students in both the Junior and Sem
ior High School are going to have the
pleasure Of hearing from their re-
spective teachers on some phases of
the subject "Your School and You"
These talks are going to take place
in the assembly during some of our

which will be supplemented with a

sonal experiences are being awaited
with high anticipation.
