serene countenance or a very opti-
mistic outlook on life when every step
brings pain. The woman who said,
I'm as old as my feet" put the truth
very aptly, for 1t is quite true that If
ones feet are always comfortable and
able to take long invigorating walks it
is comparatively easy to keep Father
Time at bay. Many home women will
agree that while they seem able to walk
miles about the house while performing
the numerous tasks of housekeeping
they find 1t firing to walk even a few
blocks out OF doors. Sometimes this is
due to lack of practice but often it is
because of ill-fitting shoes or some foot
trouble such as weak arches, cornS and
callouses.
If there is any definite foot trouble
the first step Is to see a reliable foot
specialist for diagnosis and advice. But
today we are going to consider those
foot ills which can be greatly benefited
by little special care right at home.
Changing shoes and stockings several
times day gives almost magical relief
to tired feet. Before putting on fresh
hose and shoes dust the feet generously
with boracic foot powder, as this is very
soothing and also helps prevent the feet
from perspiring excessively. Suitable
foot powders can be purchased or one
can make her own. The following in
gradients make a very good foot powder:
Flowers of sulphur, two ounces; boric
acid, four ounces; talcum powder, six
ounces.
At bedtime the feet should be soaked
well in warm soapy water. After soak
ing for several minutes, scrub them
briskly, rinse well in tepid water and
finally plunge them into cold water and
then rub them well with common table
salt and rinse again. Dry thoroughly.
After this treatment those whose feet
tire quickly and are swollen at night
should massage them with camphor
ice. To make this, melt, in jar set in
hot water, one ounce of spermaceti and
one-half ounce white wax. Beat well,
then stir in one and one-half ounces of
spirits of camphor, adding it gradually
a drop at time. AS the ingredients
do not blend easily, it is necessary to
stir them together until they cool. Be-
fore the mixture has hardened pour
into jar to set. Keep tightly covered
to prevent evaporation. If it becomes
too hard it may be melted down again
and a little oil of camphor added. In
using the camphor ice apply it to the
foot generously. Bracing the thumb on
the arch of the foot, massage with a
rotary motion with all the fingers OF
that hand Massage and gently pull
each toe. After the massage wipe off
the remaining cream and dust with foot
powder.

PROPER .SQUELCHING

Judge William Doran of the Los An
geles superior court, deserves vote OF
thanks from citizens of California for his
action in clamping down the lid on fur
ther sensationalism in the Clara Bow
Daisy De Voc case.
1t is almost certain however, that his
action will be considered in some quar-
tiers, as favoritism for the famous mo-
tion picture star. We prefer to believe
that his course was prompted by fairness
and a healthy cognizance of the dignity
which is due our courts.
Whatever opinion one may have of
Miss Bow, the fact remains that she was
not on trial and there was no call to haul
out undesirable affairs in her career.
She was not accused of wrong doing and
the private life of any witness is entitled
to the protection of a court in which he
may appear.
And the court itself is entitled to coh-
sideration. Among some of the more
morbidly curious, here was a grand
chance to turn what should have been
bit of orderly court procedure into wash
day, during which goodly assortment
of Hollywood's soiled linen might be
hung on the line. The fact that the law
accused a woman of crime and had
summoned her before the bar of justice,
had no particular appeal for them. 1t
was the hope of seeing a famous person.
age at close range, that packed Judge
Dorans court and necessitated q score of
deputies to keep order.
The judge rightly informed attorneys
and spectators that the sole fact to be
considered was whether or not the ac-
cused was guilty, and although Clara
Bow may have bought jewelry for all the
sheiks in the movie colony it had no bear
ing on the case.
There is no necessity for court airing
of Miss Bows affairs. She has been
prominent in so many undesirable esca-
pades recently that it will be only brief
time until she is quietly but effectively
dropped from the role of movie star.
Only the Lord and some nitwit film eX-
ecutives can explain why she was ever
placed there.

course. that the story of Washington and

informed US on few more incidents con-
nected with Washington, which prove

More recently the legend of Paul Re-

Paul's ride was dismal flop and never
would have been heard of had it not been
for Longfellow, who happened to come

UNCLE WIGGHY'S HARD

Fuzzy Wuzzy one afternoon. as she
saw Uncle Wiggily hopping across
the snowy fields to his bungalow as
fast as anything.

why are you running away from
her?"
II am running home to save the
pussy by my pulley line and basket

"I had to come here to reach up to
the pulley line as, back at the tree
where the pussy cat is, the line is
so high up I can't reach it. The
basket is on the line here at my
bungalow and as I want to give the
pussy some warm milk, after l save
her, thought I had better come
home"
Yes, I guess you had" agreed
Nurse Jane. well, is everything all

Il think SO, answered the rabbit
gentleman, as he hoped up on the
back stoop where there was fasten-
ed one pulley wheel around which
ran the endless rope with basket
tied to it. The other pulley wheel
was at the Hollow Stump School and

Uncle Wiggily as he saw the little

was out of sight of the rabbit gen.

SCOUT MOTHERS

OF SONS RANKS

Four new merit badges - citrus,
fruit culture, cotton farming, indi'ah
lore and stamp collecting-haVe
been approved and included IN the
merit badge program OF the Boy
Scouts OF America, by the NATIONAL
executive board. Two other badges
recently approved were wood turn
ing and zoology making a total OF
90 subjects in the merit badge pro
gram. 1t is expected that the rec
crd for awards of merit badges he
past year will exceed 1929 when SILL
1876 badges in scientific, vocational
general subjects covered by the pro-
gram, were won by Boy Scouts.
The national executive board also
approved several changes IN Scout
requirements. One provides that 10
agricultural merit badges be added
TO the list of those available TO SEC
ond-class Scouts, making total OF
40 from which the second-class
Scout may select five The 10 such
badges so designated are animal m
dustry. beef production, corn farm
ing farm home and It's planning
farm layout and building arrange
ments, first aid to animals, fruit Gull
ture, hog and pork production,
sheep farming, soil management
The board also decided that a
Scout mother may wear miniature
pin of the same rank as that held
by her son.
Junior assistant Scoutmasters,
older boys who have exhibited quail
ties OF leadership, are authorized TO
wear the uniforms of adult leaders.
