Buying good herd bull is the first
step in growing better beef calves at
less cost per pound. In common or
native-cow herds, calves sired by
purebred bulls average 125 pounds
head more when one year old than
calves of the same age SIRED by
average scrub bulls, and they sell for
about cents a pound more as stock
ers and feeders, says the U. S. De-
partment of Agriculture. Two-year-
old steers sired by good purebred
bulls weigh, on the average, about
200 pounds more a head than steers
sired by scrub bulls and sell for con-
siderably more.

If the colt becomes accustomed to

trouble will be avoided. Untrimmed
hoofs usually grow long and uneven,
and the result may be crooked foot,

care of the foot during the growing

RIVER FOREST, Ill, June 25.-If
rouge and lip-stick make woman
more attractive, their moderate use is
all right, in the opinion Of DR.. Walter
A. Maier of st. Louis, editor of the
Walther League Messenger, who Is here
for the thirty-fourth triennial conven-
ton of the Evangelical Lutheran Mis-
souri, Synod.
Painting and powdering are thumb
worn sins catalogued in the indict-
ments of modern youth, DR.. Maler SAID.
But any one who thinks that such de-
nunciations are a reaction to the pres
ent generation alone or that the prac-
tice is a development of today does
not know his history, DR.. Maier brought
out.
"In America as early as the good
old days of 1886 we read of one Boston
belle who was denounced in these
terms: ITO hide her age, she paints;
and to hide her painting, dares hardly
laugh" he said. so If professional
reformers point to a predominance of
beauty aids, we can heartily agree, but
uct of the present age. The early
Colonial newspapers revealed the Puri-
tan prototype of all this in their ad-
vertisementS.
He declared that the good old days
are considered good only because they
are too far distant to permit their
inconsistencies and absurdities to be
revealed.
And as for mcdesty, no one who
knows the inclination to the decollete
that characterized the end of the
eighteenth and the beginning of the
nineteenth centuries will complain
today" he said.

TT IS SIGNIFICANT that the best
i shod nation on earth should wear
fifty million pairs of international
Shoes year. One pair out of every
seven produced by the entire in
dustry is an international Shoe.
This is the equivalent of two pairs
for every home in the nation.
This fact measures in definite
form the leadership that has come
to the International Shoe Company
through the things it has done and
is doing for shoes.
1t is comparatively simple
problem to elevate quality when
price is no consideration. But to
elevate quality and definitely lower
price at the same time is an achieve
ment. 1t is this that International
has accomplished.
Today the international Shoe
Company stands at the head of its
industry. 1t is the worlds greatest
producer of shoes. 1t is the worlds
largest tanner of leather. Likewise
it is large producer in many related
industries where its factories manu-
facture in tremendous quantity the
many materials required to make
and market its shoes.
From the selection of the hides
themselves, through their tannage
and on beyond the building of its
shoes, International follows policy
Of manufacture that embraces the
production of its own lining fabrics
and rubber heels and soles.

New Ideas for the Home

When you want to achieve the
most elegant effects in table serv-
ice, but with the least amount OF
work, use trays. Not for a
FORMAL dinner, of course, but for the
many small meals that occur dur
ing a day, breakfast or luncheon
for two, afternoon tea, or late sup
per. Any time when a snack seems
desirable, and the setting of a table
too much like work, the tray is
mothers best friend.
You can get trays in the most
amazing variety of shape, style and
price these days. They come square
and oblong and round and oval; in
wood, wicker, tin, papier mache,
glass, copper, silver, brass; with
handles and without; on removable
stands and on wheels. If you want
to be original, you can make trays
OF your choice lace or linen doilieE
that are SO lovely you hate to keep
them safely locked up and also
break your heart when they are
used and soiled. Have them mount
ed on wood, covered with glass, and
have little handles screwed on both
ends. You car then proudly dis
play your linen treasure, without
exposing it to the danger of being
spotted.
You can buy trays from 10 cents
UP to several hundred dollars, and
that being the "a it is far better
to have many cheap trays than a
few costly ones. (You cover them

LnuS relaxing the body so that a
night of sound, healthful sleep is
assured.
On occasions when you are es-
pecially tired and want to feel as

hours, an extra pound or so of sale
should be added to the water. You'll
find 1t rather difficult to get a good
lather in the sale water, so I'd sug-
gest that you take the cleansing
bath first, then refill the tub and
add the salt. Remain in the salt
water for fifteen minutes and have
the water as cold as you a stand
1t without chilling. A tepid temper
ature is ideal for this. If too cold
such a bath would be injurious due
to the inactivity Of the body; if too
hot such a bath would be e~nervating
instead Of stimulating.
Do not rinse the skin after such
q bath, merely rub the body briskly
with an unironed bath towel until
the skin tingles. You'll feel re-
juvenated at the completion of such
a bath.
II the same stimulating effect is
desired and you haven't time to take
a tub, saturate a heavy turkish
towel with salt water, using at least
one pound of salt to one gallon of
water and after wringing it out as
much as possible, rub it briskly over
the body. Let the skin dry naturally.
Then, too, if you think of it ahead.

outlined above, then hang it up to

diately.

Dear Annie Laurie:
I am a girl eighteen years old ano
am going with a young man nine
teen years old. He seems to love
me, but is very jealous of me. Is il
right for me to continue going with
him? I really seem to like him al
times but then again I don't.

Blue Eyed Sally: If you are not
engaged, then you should not con-
fine your friendship to one man
Have many friends, for only in this
way will you eventually find Mr.
Right. If the young man truly
loved you he would prove it by a
proposal of marriage. Until that
time, you have the right to have as
many friends as you desire.
Dear Annie Laurie:
I'm a girl sixteen years of age. I'm
in love with a mar of thirty. My
parents have announced engage
ment and seem very happy over it.
He wants to kiss me all the time,
but for the last two times he has
come, he hasn't kissed me at all.
Please tell me do you think he is
getting tired of me?
Dell.
Dell: In all probability you show
ed your dislike Of his caresses to
such an extent that he has decided
to curtail them until you showed
some disposition to respond. I hard
" think he doesn't love you, for if
that vas the case. he never would
have asked you to marry him. So
don't worry, but show your fiance 2

consensus of fashion experts who
watched Easter parades is that
modish skirts are just a trlfle
longer.
Many of the fashionable pa
raiders along Fifth Avenue wore
dresses that came an inch or two
below the knee. A few that were
emphatically longer were seen.
Here and there were distinctly low
hemlines showing a tendency to
dip in uneven frills. There were
also plenty of ultra short skirts.
Shoes were so variegated they
often struck the eye before the
other components Of the costume.
Purple, green, pink, beige and
steel blue suedes we're the rule.
Lavender kid and polka-dotted
footwear proved startling. Reptile
