DIXIE LEADERS
BUILD FENCES
FOR ROOSEVELT
Visit 70 Warm Springs,
Ca, Reveals Their
Sentiment

ATLANTA, Dec. %. GUP0-What-
ever the fate of the Democratic
presidential candidacy of Cover
nor Franklin D. Roosevelt Of New
York, when the convention receives
it, it can be safely said that his
Southern policitl fences are in first
rate repair, without any apparent
loopholc.
Favorite sons and dark horses
may subsequently ariSe to head off
the New York Executive, but if the
nation as q whole remains Of the
same mind as the South appears
to be at present, nothing of the
sort will occur and Roosevelt may
ride to the nomination by acclanla-
ton on the first ballot.
Periodically for years he has come
to Warm Springs, Ca, for his
health, which today is far more ro-
bust than in decade While at
Warm Springs, he has carefully
built up his strength, found much
time for New York State official
business-and what is nationally
more significant-mu time to con-
fer with Dixies political leaders.
But before 90 per cent of the
visitors left Warm Springs they
somehow made it point to ex-
press their belief that Roosevelt
was their man of the hour" that
their states were 'so1idly behind
him..
That's the picture in the South
as painted by the political leaders,
recognized as such by the rank and
file voter. Roosevelt has strong
following among women's organ
iZations.
There is another side to the pic
ture. The proverbial "solid South
is equally solid dry, politically
or was at the last count of ballots
Roosevelt is labeled as wet, and
certain outspoken church leaders
have publicly proclaimed their op-
position to any "wet' candidate.
There is nothing on the South's
political horizon as yet to Indicate
that the church opposition to a
-'wet'' candidacy viii be any less
vigorous in 1882 than it was in 1929
when Herbert Hoover raided the
-ssolid South" and carried four pre-
viously Democratic states.

OUR CHILDREN
By ANGELO PArRI.
HandWork.

This is the time to teach handwork
I believe that all children who are
gifted with skillful hands should be
trained to use them thoroughly and
well, to the end that the world may be
made beautiful in the everyday things
we use. The machines turn out things
by the million and they look and feel
just that way. The more we use ma
chimes, the more We will want to sur
round ourselves with bits Of hand
wrought beauty.
I know that all children are not
skilled in this way. I do not ask that
all children be trained in this way but
only those whose gift is plain. Why
train boy who is by birth or inherit
ance skilled woodcarver to be a clerk?
Train the child who has fondness for
office work to be clerk if he wishes it,
but do not overlook the woodcarver and
the potter and the weaver and the cab
inetmaker. Train the child who likes
to run machine to run one. but train
the one who looks at a bit of cloth with
an artistic eye, who uses a pair of Scis-
sors to cut a line Grecian in its purity
to do handwork and create lovely
things.
The world needs beauty more every
day as the machine products turn out
uglier and uglier things for us to use
submit to the crudity of our belongings.
the keener our desire for beauty is
going to grow. Our hand-gifted chill
dren should be trained to meet this
need There will be no doubt about
their power to earn living and good
one, and there will be no doubt either
of their great spiritual value to the
Nation.
An old, old lady showed me a patch
work quilt she had made when she was
a girl. She said 1t was the wild duck
pattern. 1t was very lovely. On a
background Of muslin, so aged that it
was creamy ivory and like old silk in
texture long rows of triangles of calico
were stitched. 1t was quilted in half
inch squares, by hand and every row
of sewing was q delight to an artist.
II always liked to make pretty things,
but never got much chance. had
my work to do" Just as II making
lovely quilts was not work.
Women used to do fine weaving
lovely needlework, in the days before
the machines came. Men used to make
bits of fine cabinetwork and leave them
heirlooms to the generations that fol-
lowed them. Some of this work was
crude, but much Of 1t was lovely, as the
antique dealers will tell you should
you want a bit of it today.
We have a better chance to teach
handwork now than the schools of the
older day had. We are missing the OPP
portunity. We still insist upon giving
the same instruction to every child, re-
gardless of his tastes, abilities or needs.
So doing, we waste much time and
money and talent. A saner way would
be to, accent and train the peculiar
gift hidden in each to the profit of the
Nation.
Handwork is going to be rare and
precious. Train the skillful children to
make it their lifework in whatever
fields their power lies and life will be
richer for all CT us.

Breathing Problem. =
Dear Miss Letds: % Would yoG
kindly write an article on correct
breathing and give me the following
information concerning deep-breath=
ing exercises? Here Is my problem:
The exercise SayS-first inhale a deem
breath through the nose-do you hold
1t few seconds so that the chest Is
fully expanded? Now, what puzzles me
is the exhaling--is it true that one must
exhale quickly through the mouth land
not through the nose)? shall appre-
ciate 1t very much II you viii help me
with this problem. j, MISS W. 8. :.
Answer.-An article. on correct
breathing will appear shortly. In the
most common type Of deep-breathing
through the nose, first expanding the
lower part of the lungs, thus pushing
the diaphragm downward and the an
domen out. Next expand the uppsf
parts of the lungs. Hold breath for d
moment without straining. Exhale slow
ly and evenly through the nose. In
some breathing exercises one inhaIeS
through one nostril and exhales through
the other Still another method is III
inhale through the nose and to exhafei
through the mouth. LOIS LEEDS. .

Art of Making Things Over
BIZ MARY MARSHALL.

over The dress itself was long enough,
but It was little too loose at the waist
line and the neckline was out Of date
and @ little worn. And so this clever
French girl bought yard and more OF
polka-dotted silk, looked once, twice,
three times at the charming new dress,
went home and in a surprisingly short
time had completely transformed her
last seasons dress. She had taken in
the seams SO as to make her dress a
little snugger at the waist and hips,
and covered up any possible signs of al
teration at the waist with the girdle
made from the polka dotted material.
Then from a square of the silk she
made the new collar trimming, with the
points fastened at the back and the
front forming a cowl line at the neck.
