 That the auditor was right in this instance is evidenced by Sen ate Bill No. 76, in the recent Leg islature, providing that the bond of the treasurer of a school board and a duplicate of the budget of a school board shall be filed with the auditor.
 Of course, refusal of the audi tor to issue warrant never con- stituted final disposition of the rejected claim. Claimants could proceed in courts of law. But to afford speedier adjudication of disputed claim that can be ob- tained in court, the last Legisla- ture created board of examiners, consisting of the Governor, the Treasurer and the Attorney Gen. eral, to pass upon any claim dis allowed by the auditor, and the board is given power to instruct the auditor as to his action in the premises. Even this enactment, however, does not release the au- ditor from responsibility on his bond.
 The auditor is bonded for $25,- 900 for the faithful discharge of his duties Under the criminal law, he is liable to a maximum fine of $10,0O0 or maximum inn prisonment of two years, or both, for false or fraudulent acts in con- nection with his official conduct. His duties are clearly defined by statute. They are plain. Against the treasury, whose only resource is taxation of the peo- pie, he cannot draw warrants un- less they are supported by proper vouchers representing expenditures authorized by law.
 Personally, he cannot afford to incur the liability of mistakes or errors. Quite rightly, the pub lie would neither tolerate nor con- done them.

In one of his earlier books, H. C.. Wells expressed his opinion about giving children religious instruc- ton at too early an age.
 He suggested that child should be old enough to think for himself before the subject of the soul is brought to his attention, as young children are incapable of grasping ideas of God and inn mortality.
 Recently certain group of mothers decided to remove their children from church and church. school for the same reason, de- claring that they will have a clearer understanding of religious teachings when they are older.
 It takes courage to fly in the face of precedent and do thing like that even in the year of Our Lord 1891, when independence of action is no novelty.
 Time Niay Change Custom
 Who is to say whether it is a wise plan or the opposite? A hun dred years from now, or fifty, or ten, it may be universal custom to postpone this serious and vital subject to a time when children are more fitted to receive it and more able to grasp the fundamen- tai principles of faith and eternity.
 But the more I think of it, the more certain I am that when we grow up with anything, the more a part of our natures it becomes, There may not have been much in religion that we understood in our own tender years, but in some way, as we look back, our simple pure trust, or at least part of it, has lived on with us. As we grow older and more analytical, inclined to question and temporize, do we not lose something very sweet and precious?
 If we had begun to learn about the carnate examples of love, sac rifice and forgiveness set forth in the Bible during adolescence in stead of in childhood, would they have taken root? Would not in- telligence = always after facts, all ways wanting proof, have closed the way somewhat to the more simple acceptance of God and heaven and hereafter? Very comforting precepts and a code to live by.
 A Matter of Happiness
 And if the time ever comes that man is more comforted without than with this trust in a higher power, I believe from that minute on he will be less happy.
 Perhaps I am wrong and these mothers are right, do not profess to know. Little children some times do get queer and distorted ideas of things so far over their heads. But who can tell just when they do begin to think for themselves? We are told that re- ligious habit like all others be- comes static before seven years of age.
 New Russia looks upon religion now as a superstition. The chill dren in school are made to repeat q do not believe in God" even the very smallest ones. Evidently the Russians consider it necessary to start in young to implant their irreligious idea. If we want to do the opposite we shall have to start in young, too, it seems to me.
 My idea is to instruct child in the religious faith of his fathers, and to begin 1t very early in life.

 Certainly I think acting is a fine profession-whyi it's my whole life," declares Miss Dressler num- Der one.
 I'm glad you like those drapes, I made them myself" says Miss Dressler number two.
 The first Miss Dressler can be found around the Metro-Goldwyn- Mayer studio a good bit of the time. Or she might be seen at one of Hollywood's gay premieres which are fading out so rapidly-or making a personal appearance With one of her pictures.
 The second Miss Dressler's hang out is a large and substantial red
 brick house in Beverly Hills. There she fusses around in her garden, makes over her old dresses, makes | drapes, reads, writes letters and plays bridge with few close friends. She is one of the film
 colony's best bridge players. A stranger in town would have the red-brick house pointed out to him as the home of Marie lDressler, famous movie star. And In sense that is correct-but only | in a sense. She owns the home. It
 was the money she earned in pie lures which enabled her to buy 1t.

 Here's a slimming costume slip that Paris has designed along the lines of the new frock.
 The interesting cut of the mould ed bodice extending into deep point at the frcnt proves partic- ularly slenderizing feature and gives heightened line. The skirt being circular falls so gracefully beneath the similar circular fiaiYhg hemline of the frock. The hem of the slip may be rolled by hand, which gives 1t a French finish or it may be finished professionally with picot edge. Lace edging provides dainty trim which may also trim the upper edge of the bodice.
 It can easily be made in an hour or possibly two. And the cost will prove surprisingly small.
 Style No. 228 may be had in sizes IA, 16, IS, 20 years, 36 and 38 inches bust. Size 16 requires 2H yards of 35-inch material with 32 yards of edging.
 Crepe de chine and flat crepe silk are popularly used for the ex cellent service they give.
 Our Fall and Winter Fashion magazine is ready. It contains styles for children, the miss and of course, a most attractive selection for adults including slenderizing effects for stouts.

Marie Dressler, On And of The

see. is two persons-one in the spot light and quite another out of it.
 It is Marie number one who delves into grease paint and per spires under glaring studio lights all day long in order to buy the simple luxuries which her other self enjoys so greatly. And she loves doing 1t. It has been her life for the last 40 years.
 Were 1t not for the fact that her appearance gives her away, you never would know that the Marie Dressler you enjoyed so much at home was the same woman you had met previously in the studio When she drives out of the studio gate after a days work, a decided change comes over her. She no longer is the actress but a tired middle-aged woman who desires only comfort and the congenial companionship of few friends. There is only one way in which the two personalities found within the Dressler body run parallel That is her humor and wit. Re- gardless of where she ma ybe or Whta she may be doing Marie never forgets her sense of humor. And she invariably has a witty remark waiting to pop out at any mo- ment. This is one of the things which make her so popular on and off the screen. Throughout her nearly three score years she has faced life with a laugh. Right now that is easy for her to do. But there have been times-many of them when the sailing has been pretty rough, although not rough enough to wipe off that smile.

attention while other things are being done and will be ready to serve when wanted, directly from the oven.
 Meals of this type can be pre- pared in two ways, using either long or short periods. Long cook | ing periods demand low temper atufe, while short cooking periods necessitate high temperature. The housewife who wants to spend an afternoon tout" can put her dinner in the oven before she l,leaves and come home to find it cooked ready to serve if she regu- lates her oven to a slow temporal ture.
 Foods for the whole oven meal should be chosen with some thought. Those which can be cooked at the same temperature and for approximately the same length of time must, of course, ne selected when the entire meal goes into the oven at once. However, very often most satisfactory com bination can be worked out in which the cooking temperature re- mains the same. but the cooking periods vary. Foods which re- quire the longest time for cooking are put in the oven first and the others are added with sufficient
 time allowance to assure their be- ing done when wanted for serving. The stove which Is equipped with an oven heat regulator is ideal, for the meal practically can
 be forgotten when the food is : placed in the oven and the regula- tor adjusted to the desired tenn perature. If regulator is not part
 of your equipment, an oven ther-
 mometer insures an accurate temperature.
 For long time oven meals, the
 meats are scared at a high tenn
 perature, 450 degrees F.. for 30
 minutes. Then the heat is reduc-
 ed to 275 degrees F. and the whole
 meal cooked for three hours or
 longer.

 Sue nodded. She did know. She remembered how Grace had advised her, over and over again.

Easy for her to keep them, too, for the men with whom she played them had no personal interest for her.

 Lipstick Is the favorite cosmetic powder, ''swear off'' rouge for a few days, omit eye makeup, but don't neglect your lips.
 Nature has given very few of us enough natural coloring in our lips. And since your mouth re- fleets your every mood, be sure that the frame which shows the reflection is lovely one. Choose a shade of lipstick which blends exactly with your rouge. If you don't wear rouge, then get lip- stick which is bright, young, nat ural looking, and cheerful. The pinkish and orange shades are be- cosaing to most women. If you are the Spanish brunette type, you may find that the deep rose shades are better, but, as a rule, bright shades are nicer for everyone. Lipstick should be applied with the finger tips rather than direct ly on the lips from the "stick" it. self. Your fingers have a tendency to make it soft and flexible and you are less apt to leave harsh edges.
 Relax and open your mouth a little way when you start to make it up. Begin at the center of the upper lip and work outward to the edges. Be sure that you apply along the inner edge so that a white streak will not be visible when you smile. You can improve the shape of your mouth by applying your lip stick with that idea in mind. If your lips are thick, keep the paste within the line of the edge. If they are thin, carefully apply it over the natural line of your lips with the cushion of your fore- finger. It will take a good deal of practice to perfect this trick, for, unless you are extremely care
 ful, the lip rouge will show on your white skin above and below
 the lines of your lips. If you have an exceptionally long mouth, do not rouge your lips way out to the corners. The reverse is true if your mouth is too small sim ply be generous with your lipstick on the corners. Unless your lips are very thick, accentuate the cupid's bow.
 A little trick which you can ac- complish with lipstick and one that has been used for centuries is.
 leaving your upper lip free of color
 in the very center and arching the
 color on the curve of the lips on both sides of the center You'll. 1 look quite naive and child-like.
