GREAT TRIUMPHS OF CHILDREN

It was necessary to rap him sharply

Wake up, Horacel" his teammates
would say. Wake up! It's your turn
to SPELL"
He never failed to respond properly.
Every one said:
THAT little Greeley boy can spell as
well asleep as awake"
Though he was destined to become q
great editor, Horace had trouble at
first with grammar. But 1t was not his
fault as much as that of Lindley Muir
ray, author of an English grammar and
reader then in use in the schools. This
book was not adapted to the instruction
of little children.
Moreover, the boy found errors in his
grammar. He didn't progress until he

Everyday Psychology

The Joker.

The Joker.
The psychology Of the habitual and
boresome joke teller has been to me q
constant problem, not to say annoy
ance.
Why should man want to keep on
telling the same joke time after time to
every person who will listen to him?
When some one asks Have you heard
TINS one! We feel like saying, mot
lately"
According to the most approved psy-
chology Of jokes, the joke teller is a
little fellow trying to enlarge upon his
mental dimensions. II some one laughs
with him, he supposes thereby that he
has really made an impression on the
person, has taken that person into his
mental household.
take 1t that that is good psychology.
For I recall that most speakers, when
addressing an audience, begin by telling
a joke. The joke is the royal road to
the minds of the listeners. These he
naturally wants to get in tune with. AS
q mere device it is good. The public
speaker may be pardoned. He is only
using good pedagogy, as they would say
In teachers college.
The real psychology Of the joke is
measured in terms Of the laughter 1t Is
able to provoke.
Take group Of 40 persons, and q
really good joke usually has q Door
chance Of getting across" Tell the
same joke to thousand and it's a sue
cess. According to one noted psycholo-
gist, Laughter is directly proportional
to the size of the group" This means
that while the group increases arith-
metically, the response increases geo.
metrically.
According to another psychologist,
1.-THE intelligence Of a group decreases
geometrically with the arithmetical in
crease of the group"
Put these two laws together and you
arrive at one conclusion: Jokes are
childish, even primitive They indicate
that the jokester is really bored by
civilization, is COMPOUNDED by the intelli-
gence of modern civilization.
Jokes. then. must represent tempo
rary relapses Of ones intellectual attain
ments. At least, that's one interpreta-
ton.

Mrs Greeley read from a book in her
lap as she spun. One day she dlscoV-
cred that her little son, Horace, was
reading from the book, too.
He was leaning against her knee. For
him the words were upside down ana
the lines reversed, but whether from
that position or sideways, he devoured
the printed page with equal ease. And
"What a child" Mrs. Greeley muir
INJURED to herself There was o catch
in her throat. She had lost her two
other children and Horace was sickly.
He was so feeble that he could not
watch through a closed window the
falling of rain without becoming vio-
lently Ill.
Mrs. Greeley had had schooling
better than most farmers wives OF her
day. 1t was at her knee that Horace
learned to read.
His unique ability brought him great
fame in the countryside about his New
Hampshire home. But folks shook their
heads doubtfully. Such intelligence in
a mere infant was bound to be fatal.
He'll never live to grow up" they
said,
Horace went to school two months
before he was 3 years old. He was so
clever at spelling that before he was 4
he could spell down" any one in the
school, which numbered among its stu
dents many of practically adult age.
He was head of the first class.
In those days the schools had spelling
matches every Friday afternoon. The
first Speller and the second best chose
sides. But Horace Greeley was so In
fantile that he could not be trusted
with this task. He would select for his
team the smallest children. his play
mates, who could not spell at all.
Sometimes there would be big eve
ming matches. Poor little Horace would

BEAUTY CHATS
Treatment for Blotches.

If your skin quite unaccountably gets
full Of little red marks, which seem to
be under the surface and which you
cannot lose by dieting, try the water
drinking method Of curing them. These
may be acid marks, and they may even
come from dieting, II you have cut out
too much fat and starch from your
food and If you've gone in for thin
ming acidy fruits as q means Of reduc-
ing weight.
They may not be acid marks. It's
hard to tell and you can be as good at
diagnosing the reason as any one else.
If your food has been too full Of acid
stop all acidy things and see what hap
pens. Strawberries produce an ugly
rash sometimes and quite often torna-
toes will do so. Too much orange and
grapefruit Juice may be q reason, or
a diet Of fruit and vegetables exclu-
sively. You might take o spoonful of
milk Of magnesia each night for q
short time. This counteracts acid in the
stomach and is laxative as well.

Arrange a fiat wave at the temples and
another over the ear. Have the ends

shingled until the side hair is long
enough to be made into a coil behind
to cover the short ends. Another way
to dress your hair is to have one small
wave at the left of the part and a
deep, diagonal wave coming down al
most to the bridge of the nose and
slanting up above the left temple. The
ends Of side hair come forward in a
single wave on the cheek with the ends

SuperhuOus Hair.

Dear Miss Leeds-G) Will solution
Of one-third part ammonia and two
tt1trds part dioxogen. faithfully used,
kill facial hairs? Should one use house,
hold ammonia or spirits Of ammonia?
How long will it take to kill the growth?
az Will the wax depilatory that is said
to destroy the hairs really do so per-
manently? ANXIOUS.
Answer-O I think the bleach you
have in mind Is the one made OF Ia
bleSpoonfuls of peroxide and 6 drops OF
household ammonia. The bleach will
not kill the hair roots, as it acts only
on the hair shafts above the skin. The
only way to be permanently rid, Of the
hairs that Is sanctioned by physicians
Is provided by electrolysis. Any exter-
nal application that Is strong enough to
penetrate into the hair follicles and
destroy them would seriously injure the
skin also. (2) No. The hairs are
jerked out and one may see the small

destroy the hair follicle.

Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1929-09-05

One sometimes sees goodly portion
Of book shelves filled with large num-
Der Of books partly obscured by a table
or sofa placed in front of them. This
gives the feeling of the books having
been installed because they were needed
to fill the shelf space and not because
they were to be good friends.
A book that is difficult to reach is
being sighted, and who can reach a
book easily If 1t is behind sofa or at
the back of wide and heavy table?
In the illustration is shown wall
bookshelf which Is too low to have
either table or sofa placed In front of
it without cutting off the lower row of
books. But the solution Is one which Is
attractive, simple and practical.
A bench the length Of the shelves
offers opportunity for comfort while
browsing through the various volumes
and the covering may be of material
which brings an important spot Of color
into this portion of the room and per-
hape complete a balanced effect.
