Cheerfulness Wins in
Lies Strenuous Game

Cheerfulness is a wonderful tonic.
If you are enjoying yourself thorough
ly, how much you can do. 1t Is hard
to tire out happy person. 1t has
been proved, too, that gloom is wear
ing. You can exhaust yourself worry
ing and while you are lying abed and
not moving a muscle. If you worry,
you seldom do good work, because you
have not energy enough to go around.
You use it up In worry, and there is
not enough left for your work. 1t
follows logically that if you wish to
make the most Of life, you must cult.
vate cheerfulness and discard gloom
II you forget your trouble in helping
some one else, however, you will find
that you can always put gloom to
flight and get the mastery of fear. 1t
is your only chance for happiness

Holstein Cattle Winter
in Luxurious Quarters

Speaking of the winter care given
the famous Holstein cattle by the
dairymen of Friesland, Holland. the
National Geographic society says !:
Barn and dwelling are under one
roof, which rises high into the sky
in order to provide loft space for the
immense amount of hay needed as
cattle feed during the long winter.
The whole gives the appearance of a
one-story cottage pushed low into the
earth by weight of an immense pointed
roof, which reaches above the tops
of the tall trees lining the roadway.
"a hall separates the living quar-
ters of the farmers family from
space set aside for COWS, which as a
rule is the larger portion of the house.
Visitors testify that these barns are
spotless and odorless. Each stall Is
sanded and has window Of its own,
inevitably decorated with a fresh
white window curtain. Every COW
has a bath daily and many of their
tails are tied up with ribbon"

Eskimo Offer of Wife just Friendly Gesture

Something should be said about the
legendary eagerness of an Eskimo to
offer his wife TO every passing stran-
ger and the wife's eagerness to be so
offered. The report is greatly exag-
gerated.
Every good Eskimo provider, in the
course of time, is likely to accumulate
number of superfluous women. Each
winter many hunters at the Ice edge,
thirty miles or more from land, are
lost, and because of this and other
reasons there is a chronic deficiency
of men.
Eskimo economy rests inescapably
on the cooperation of man and wom-
an. The woman cures fish and vent
son, tries out blubber for oil and does
q thousand other things: and all
through the winter evenings she
chews away on heavy. hairy skins of
seals, making them as soft and plia-
BILE as cloth and fit for clothing. In
turn she is dependent upon the
hunter.
Since an Eskimo man has a kindly,
friendly nature presumably he shows

consideration to the extra women
who. because of the death of their
men relations, come into his family.
To call those women his wives, how
ever, is gross misuse of the word.
They are, more often, only so many
additional mouths to feed. When an
Eskimo presses one Of his so-called
wives upon the passing stranger he is
very likely hoping that the stranger
may be moved to make bid for her.

sure on the ministerial unemployment
policy offered by Sir Oswald Mosley,
Patrician Lahorite, who this week re-
signed his place In the cabinet as chan
cellor of the Duchy Of Lancaster.
Sir OswaId's motion was offered in q
speech Of SIS minutes duration. In the
succeeding two hours Mr.. Macdonald
and his Labor ministers were under
stood to have presented their cause with
eloquence and such effectiveness that
when the poll was taken the dissidents
numbered no more than the usual left
wing strength Of the party.
At about the same time It became
known that Mr.. Macdonald had refused
the demands of David Lloyd George,
Liberal leader, for certain electoral re.
forms, including proportionate repre-
sentation. Thus 1t appeared that what
ever happens next Wednesday, when
the ministry will be further challenged
In the Commons on unemployment, the
official Liberal vote will not be cast on
behalf of the government.
There was q growing belief, however,
that defeat of the government at that
time is unlikely. 1t was pointed out
that, while the Conservatives may vote
solidly against the government, the Lib
eral vote probably will be divided. This
Liberal detection probably will be suf-
ficient to save Mr.. Macdonald and his
aides.
The specific point at issue next We'd
nesday will be reduction Of the salary

the traditional mode Of calling de-
oartment to account for its policies.

CITES PUBLISHERS
IN AID CAMPAIGN
Member of Trade Commits
sion Offers Praise in
Radio Address.

Praising the publishers of the country
for success Of the Federal Trade Com
mission campaign against fraudulent
advertising, w. z. Humphreys, member
of the commission, in q radio address
over the National Broadcasting Co. net
work declared last night that In the
past six months publishers had re-
jected not less than $100,000,000 worth
Of questionable advertising"
The public as result of this rejec-
ton. the commissioner said, "has been
protected from being robbed Of not less
than $150.000, 000."
"The press in this matter has
rendered a great public service" Mr..
Humphrey said. II believe that within
a year the advertising columns of pub
LEGATIONS will be practically free of that
class OF advertisements that are plainly
false upon their face. p.
But whether it takes q year or 10
years, or however long 1t may take, the
fight Is going to continue until these
takers and crooks and scoundrels who
live by robbing the unwary and unfortu-
nate are put out Of business. In this
undertaking we have the support OF
every honest publisher in America. We
have the support of every honest adver-
Using agncy In America. We believe
honest and decent American citizen"
Commissioner Humphreys urged men,
bers of the radio audience to report to
the commission any fraudulent advertise
ments which they may see.
Write to us and give us the facts"
he said, I'VE will do the rest. About rs
per cent of this class of advertising
refers to physical ailments and deform-
tiles. These quacks can always find
crooked but shrewd and able physicians
to testify as to the merits Of their
wares. In order to meet this testimony
the commission must have the evidence
Of high-class physicians.
I'm behalf of the commission and the
public, appeal to the physician indi-
vidually and to the American Medical
Society and to the various other med
ical associations throughout the country
to help US in this matter Of furnishing
expert testimony. The funds Of the
commission are extremely limited. In
no other way can q doctor perform
greater public service than to help drive
these frauds out of business"
