News From Angora.

According to the cables, the prime
minister of Turkey has called upon the
ladies of that land to start economic
ing. by renouncing Partisan perfumes
and silks. This news will startle the
folks who have always thought of Turk
ish women as wearing Powered kimonos
and wells. We had no idea that the
danes from the Dardanelles were so
ritzy.
Yes, this is the report from Angora
where the cats and rugs come from.
The big idea is to have them clothe
themselves in Turkish fabrics and be-
deck their locks with the flowers that
bloom on the Anatolian Mountains
They don't want their yelled beauties
to tog out like movie stars.
But it Is not only in the boudoir. but
all over the place that the prime minis
ter, or pasha, wants to start economy
SO that Turkey can pay its war debt.
The pasta person thinks that, once the
ladies Of the land have canned their
finery, the men of the festive fez may
be induced to indulge in some Scotch
thrift.
This is new application of the prin-
ciple, the women first" Since they
are the first to be saved in time of ca
tastrophe, If that is the rule over there
among the Turks, they should be the
first to save the nation from bank
ruptcy. The Turks would reason that
way.
Now, is this chivalry or psychology?
On the side Of chivalry, you can always
size up q nation by the way 1t treats
its woman folks When the race lived
in caves, courtShip was carried on by
means of the club, and those who were
won in such petting parties were dolled
up in the skins of wild beasts subdued
by similar means.
The dawn of civilization saw a wom-
ans face in the bright sun disk. 1t was
the place and build her a Babylon or
Rome. The kind of civilization is such
as man inagines a woman would like
to have. Man may MISS the point once
in while, but in general he knows how
to please woman. That's the chivalry
of it.
On the psychological side, we realize
that men take their cue from women in
either French luxury or Scotch econ
omy. When there are coolies OF money,
men will lavish 1t on the dolls who take
them shopping.
But when dollar bills are as scarce
as lettuce leaves in January, man wants
woman to locate the 5 and 10 cent
stores. At any rate. that's the TURKISH
idea of "the women first"
We have been good spenders OF late
both In Turkey and the United States.
Lots of the money has gone into SILK
hosiery. 1t might be good idea to see
whether that sock couldn't make good
savings bank. All the Turks would like
that.

OUR CHILDREN

Mental Hygiene.

We are doing good work in physical
hygiene. Our children are healthier.
have less illness, more actual health
than ever before. We have about con-
Quered diphtheria. If we can succeed
in giving all children preventive
treatment we need fear that disease
no longer as q dread scourge. We almost
have it under control. Malnutrition
grows less as mothers learn more and
more about children's diet. Childish
diseases grow fewer as mothers learn
more about physical hygiene of child
hood. Now for the very, very important
next step. We have to work hard TO
teach mental hygiene.
Nothing q child does is uninfluenced
by thought. The mothers thought in
fiuences her children. Try it for your
self. If you have been feeling cross;
If your words have been sharp, your
actions abrupt, no smiles, no gentle
words, the children are behaving in
accordance with your thought. They
are afraid, uncertain and unhappy.
They will do wrong things, each accord
ing to his nature.
Take a new thought. Think, IT am
thought Of the Infinite. / reflect
some of the perfection of the Infinite.
sions of perfection. That is what
would see in my own life, in the lives of
my children" Think along that course
for a few seconds. Let the lines on your
face relax, loosen your tense shoulders,
smile-and watch the children. Imne-
diately they relax and their whole being
is illuminated. Now they are good
children.
It is necessary for the very first step
mother to think right. No unlovely
thought, no jealousy, no fear, no grudg-
ing, is to enter. If such a thought
creep up, push it out with the other
one. perfection, love and truth and
beauty, because we are all thoughts of
the Infinite mind, and therefore must
reflect some of its perfection. You can
not think good thoughts without reflect
ing strength and courage and faith upon
the minds of the children, and when
they feel that influence upon them
power rises within their bodies and they
do better. Every thought fathers an
| action. You cannot avoid that law.
Make the thought good one and action
reflects the good.
When a child shows fear, think cour-
age Study the child to find the cause
of the fear and put courage In its stead.
If the child says he is i'll, care for him
and keep thinking health. Keep look
ing forward to health. When child
grieves because of some failure, think
success for him. Gently show him how
to succeed. Show him where his power
lies (every one has some), and pour out
encouragement until he rises to try once
more.
And when you can't see the way
clear, when no helpful thought rises
that your cold reason does not promptly
down, take refuge in faith. We are all
children of the Infinite, and II we claim
/
hint of mental hygiene. Perhaps you
know IL by another name. It is quite as
effective by any name you choose to give
| it. The point is-are you practicing
what you know?

Men in the service of Federal, State
or city governments are sometimes en-

entitled to their pensions. Shares in

Widows experience their greatest diff

are officers in closed corporations. Their
stock usually has little market value
and a corporation may wait indefi-

If others won't buy it the widow may
be left temporarily without any funds
whatsoever. For that reason more and
more men in such corporations have
standing agreements.
II one dies, the others must either
buy up his stock or wind up the business
within q definite period of time. The
widow usually must give 80 days no.

the other officers do not act, she may
either sell or have the business wound
up. This latter provision Is suggested
as a practical one for wives to propose
Nobody expects to die tomorrow or even
