IMPORTANCE OF
 ALITTLE REP0SE
Hamilton Gibson Addressed Kiwanis Club at the
 Hotel Elton To-day
LOAFING A GRAND ART

The importance of little repose. a little recreation or little 'loafing" is ones daily routine was stressed in a talk at the meeting of the Kiwanis club given to-day by Hamil- ton Gibson, headmaster of the Gun nery school at Washington, Conn. The session was held at the Elton.
 "While on business trip to New York city last week, I was very much surprised when the man, whom I approached suggested a hurried lunch and then a visit to the Trinity church to listen to the or- gan. We had an ample but quick lunch and then we sat for half an hour next to the organ, just listen ing.
 "I was impressed with the thing. as 1t was plain that it was a com mon routine. The church was ap- parently packed and those present were undoubtedly typists, secretaries, clerks, managers and presidents and vice-presidents of banks. They were there with but one common thought, probably religious, but I doubt it.
 "It was rest. I mean that they were looking for a little repose from the press of their duties as 1t takes the edge off the grind of the day.
 "Loafing is grand art, but must be handled carefully" he concluded.

 J. Francis Roland, athletic Super visor, took the stand and urged every individual before him to add atmosphere to the Crosby cheering section tonight with their presence. He emphatically stressed the need of their attendance which he be- lieves will undoubtedly encourage the Crosby players to fight harder for a victory, which over a Wilby team is something to be proud of. James Murphy. assistant football coach, followed with another pep talk in which he discussed the Cros- by team in general and numerous vital points connected with tonights fray. Coach William Schofield failed to take the stand as illness which possibly will hinder from be- ing on hand tonight, deterred him from so doing.

Suggestions for
Housewives

Superfluous hair on arms
and legs can be removed by
scraping with a flat pumice
stone, but the effect is the
same as if a razor were used,
and the razor is more con.
venient and speedier. Depila-
tories are satisfactory. though
if the skin is sensitive, it's a
good plan to follow the treat
ment with applications of cold
cream.
Where one soft roll of hair
has been scooting across the
back of the head, three now ap-
pear. one above the other.
This effect offers a variation,
and is a filler for the alb
breviated hat that sits atop
the head. Wavelets to be worn
on the left side are on display
in beauty shops. light little
fluffs that are a comfort to
thin-haired buckles.
Soft corns between the toes
are caused by moisture of the
skin surface. Sprinkle we'll with
boric talcum or powdered pre-
pared chalk and cover with
small pads Of absorbent cotton.
Ordinary cornS are produced by
pressure and friction of ILL
fitting shoes.
