Happy Together
By Alice Judson Peale

Some fathers and mothers and brothers and sisters have the knack of really enjoying each others so- ciety.
 A certain family of my acquaint- ance made a regular ritual of their Christmas holiday. They lived in California, and year after year they hitched a trailer to the family car and went to a particular canyon in the desert where stream flowed between basalt rocks and a few palms grew.
 There they made camp and set up their Christmas tree with can- dies and trimmings in the still air. They hung their stockings on the sage brush and sang carols as the warm dawn came over mountains on Christmas morning.
 It seemed like a good deal of an undertaking to transport four chil- dren to the desert for a whole week but, as their mother explains, it was no trouble at all.
 It took just an hour to get ready. The older children made their own packs, and helped the younger ones make theirs. She herself assembled the food while father got the rest of the camping equipment together and slowed everything into the car. During all the years that the chil- dren were growing up they went on all sorts of outings together. Their trips were no burden. Everyone did his share and did it cheerfully and everybody had a glorious time.
 I suppose this capacity for cheer full cooperation within the family circle, for real joy in one another's society, depends more than any, thing upon the keynote that is struck by father and mother.
 If they enjoy doing things to- gether, if they help each other nat urally and gaily in any common undertaking, their children catch the mood that is in the atmosphere and follow their example.

DO you know where my home is?" asked Impy very suddenly.
 Little Miss Frisky nodded. I've known for a long time" said she. I've watched you come out and go in many times.''
 Impy remembered then that Miss Frisky had told him once before that she knew where his home was, He had pretended not to believe it. Now, however, this wouldn't do. He knew in his heart that she must De speaking the truth. T didn't sup pose any one would find that" said he. T have never found your home and I've looked for it and looked for it.
 Little Miss Frisky chuckled soft ly. 'The entrance to my home is we'll hidden, if I do say so," said she. T should love to see the in- side of your home"
 If you like it will you live there with me-" asked Impy
 That depends" replied little Miss Frisky.
 Depends on what?" asked Impy.
 Whether or not you'll come and live in my home if your home doesn't suit me-" said little Miss Frisky.
 "Then it's all settled" replied l Impy promptly, Well live in which ever home you like the best. l do hope you'l like my home, for it is the very best one I've ever had. What are chuckling about?i
 Its the only one you've ever had of your own, isn't it?" asked lit tie Miss Frisky demurely.
 Impy had to admit that it was. He took her down inside and show ed her the long hall that led to tn" snug bedroom, which was really or the other side of the big stonepilo. He showed her where t. back door had been, out of which he hal pushed all the sand; and how he had filled the passage that led to this door. Miss Frisky examined everything with the greatest or care. She discovered the two little storerooms that opened from the long hall and wanted to know wha. those were. Impy told her.
 T guess l made those rooms just for the fnu of working" said he. T knew they would come in handy sometime.'
 Miss Frisky nodded approvingly. These are very good,' said she. T think we'll make them a little larger; also, l think we'll add one or two more. I believe in having plenty of storeroom
 "Then we are going to live hcre"' cried Impy delightedly.
 Miss Frisky nodded This is Il better house than mine,' said she.

Overweight It has been long known that the length of life of the obese is shorter than that of the normal in dividual.
 This general impression recently has been fortified and validated by a study of the relative death rates from certain leading causes among those markedly overweight, as against those who are under weight.
 In general, it was found that overweight persons are more sub- ject to the so-called degenerative diseases, while those underweight have higher than average death rates from respiratory diseases
 This study, published in Human Biology" in May, 1880, points out that if we take the death rates pre- vailing among those of normal weight as 100 per cent those who are overweight have a mortality in heart disease 151 per cent of the average.

Will Dicky Consider Mir. Veritzen's
 Flamboyant Extrayagance an Im-
 pertinence? Madge Wonders
 After Her First Glimpse of the
 Dining Table
 Mary shot a furtive side glance at me as I told her that we must hurry down to thank MT. Neritzen for all his kindness. But she made no comment, although I knew that she was thinking of her former i'm pertinent little speech concerning MT. Veritzen's ostentatious gener- osity for her party, and the reason for his flamboyant gesture. l said nothing further either and we went into the dining room with the de- corum of attendants at a funeral.
 A Veritable Garden
 But Mary's high spirits were not proof against the sight of the deco- rated room at the rear of the big dining room. In the big room, of course, nothing was changed from the ordinary routine of dinner, eX- cept for the bankings of palms and trailing plants in the corners and the bracket lodges which outlined the sides of the room a few feet be- low the high ceiling.
 But the smaller room was all ready for our dinner before the the ater, and Mary clasped her hands IS might a little girl before a coveted doll when she saw the musicians platform banked in flowers and green, and the festoons of greenery which came from the corners of the room and met at the chandelier q few feet above the center of the tahle.
 "Oh! oh." she breathed, and at the words MT. Veritzen turned from the table and came toward us. The center of the table was hidden by sheets of the green paper which florists use for wrapping flowers, but l noticed that they were skill fully arranged so that they did not touch what was beneath them.
 "Ah! at last" he said, and there was distinct note of reproach in the words which he addressed poinc- edly to me-he ignored Mary as if she were a small child accompany ing me.
 T am so sorry" I said perfume torily, but at the last minute a missing collar button complicated matters. You, with your perfect man, can have no idea of the havoc so small a thing may cause"
 l deliberately had brought in the domestice note, feeling that in some vague way it armored me against the banal sentiment with which my employer seemed determined to in vest his lavish gift of flowers for the party.
 His eyebrows narrowed into an involuntary frown. and with secret malice l saw that he did not relish my having delayed my inspection Of his flowers because of Dicky's call upon my services. But the next in stant he was all urbanity again, and stepping back to the table took hold of the sheets of green paper

 Air Service Aids
 MT. McGregor, who is enroute to Nome to establish an sociological station of the first class similar to the one now operating at Fairbanks, told the Chamber that five air sta tions would be established in South east Alaska as soon as funds are available, probably next year. It was aimed, he added, to work in cooperation with the Canadian au- thorities in establishing reporting stations so that the route from Ju- neau to Seattle would be adequate ly covered.
 It is planned to establish 35 to 10 air reporting stations in north ern, eastern and western Alaska, he added This will give a cover age to virtually all of the routes over which planes now operate.

PHILADELPHIA May 15--An avi- ator who just missed going on one historic flight may take part in another.
 Clarence H. Schildhauer, former navy flyer, has been offered the chance to pilot the German "DO-X' the worlds largest heavier-than-ai craft, on it's projected trip across the Atlantic.
 Back in 1925 he played an im- portant role in the navys attempt to conquer the Pacific ocean be- tween the west coast and Hawaii by air.
 A new ship, called the PN-9, was built and to Lieut.. Schildhauer was assigned the task of finding out if the ship could remain in the air long enough for the proposed flight.
 With Lieut.. J. R. Kyle, jr., now dead, alternating at the controls, he piloted the plane to worlds seaplane endurance record of 28 hours and 36 minutes, mark that stood for three years.
 The navy provided two PN-9s and a heavier ship for the flight Schildhauer was named second al- ternate pilot but the regular crews took their places for the journey.
 One plane, in command of Com mander John Rodgers, fell short of it's goal and drifted for nine days at sea; the second PN-9 went down 400 miles from California; and the heavier ship never got under way.
