blondes prefer powder rouge for
your cheeks, then it is best applied
over some liquid base. The color
ing for your cheeks may be slight
ly darker than that used for your

When cool colors, such as blues
and grays are worn by the blonde,
then her lipstick and her cheek
rouge should be more of the cerise
tone, not too dark. There is less
yellow in such makeup colors.

Adenoids are 4 common affection Of
children between the ages Of five and

these children arc estimated to have
enlarged adenoids. Adenoids are

There are two ways In which the

A BID FOR DISARMAMENT

For his Memorial day address President Hoover appro-
prlately chose the subject of peace. The speech is note
worthy because the president did not confine himself to
the usual ~plattudes and empty congratulations. but took
occasion to make a new and concrete overture for the
limitation Of navies by treaty agreement.
What is equally important. he made it clear that the
United States is not using naval limitation as a smoke
screen of apparent good intentions behind which to al
low militariSm to continue undated. At the Geneva con-
terence, where in 1927 the powers failed to reach agree
nent on cruisers and other smaller fighting craft. it was
proposed by Great Britain to put the number of per-
mitted cruisers so high as to make a farce of the whole
proceeding. President Hoover serves notice that "Limita-
ton upward is not our goal. but actual reduction of ex.
listing commitments to lowered levels" Any treaty that
resulted III navicS just as large or even larger than those
now existing would be a travcsty on ~rma
Here is a test of the sincerity Of the world powers
which solemnly put their names to the recent treaties
rcnouncing war. an opportunity to put those idealistit
sentiments into practical expression. It remains to be
seen whether President Hoovers overture is heard.

Talks
f.. Parents


Mary begged and begged me to
give her all aquarium, and ! did. !
got her a fine one with three gold
fish and q lot of plants and Snails.
She has only had it a month and she
has lost interest in it already. She
never looks at it any more. She even
forgets to feed the poor things. I've
told her that the next time she asks
me for anything like that she can
whistle for it"
Why on earth should Mary stay in
terested in an aquarium with three
goldfish and some SnailS? We all get
tired Of things after the ncwneSS has
worn off. after we have discovered
everything there Is to discover. It is
no use expecting Mary to take care Of
her goldfish from a high sense Of
moral obligation and gratitude. Chill
dren simply aren't made that way.
It is possible, however, to make
some enterprises more vital to begin
with. mor lasting and mor genu-
inc while they last. II YOU start q
child on All undertaking to which he
must make his own contributions all
along the line. his interest will be
more than a fleeing one.
Don't for instance, present him a
finished and perfect aquarium. Let
him put in his own water plants and
work out for himself the balance Of
plant and animal life. Suggest that
he get the kind Of snailS which will
lay eggs in the aquarium or the sort
which will delight him by producing
livc-born young.
Let him get the type of pollywog
which will turn into a frog in q few
months. Encourage him to make his
own excursions to the country to
bring back little pond snails. plants
and insect larvae. all Of which will
grow in his silent little water world
A child's interest Is held only by an
enterprise which constantly Is growing
and constantly developing new phases,
AS soon as it ceases to do this he will
drop 1t in favor of a new enthusiasm.

DlSREGARDlNG THEIR SAFETY

The department of commerce requires all men who
would get licenses as commercial airplane pilots to take
extremely strict medical examinations.
The doctors who give these tests, it seems, have to be
constantly on their guard. Scores Of men, who know
they are not physically qualified. try to hoodwink them
and get passing marks that they do not deserve. Few,
If any. succeed; yet the doctors have to be exceedingly
vigilant.
This represents a rather queer Quirk in human nature
The strict physical examination is as much a safeguard
for the pilot himself as for anyone else. II a man isn't
properly equipped physically he can't fly in safety. Yet
many men disregard this and try to become pilots any
how. They seem to overlook the fac, tina. by doing so
they are simply jeopardizing their OWE lives.
