CHILD LABOR IN

Tremendous Decrease Re-

Tremendous decrease in child la
Dor in Indiana is one favorable fac
tor growing out Of the depression, it
was reported today by Mrs. Jessie
Gremelspacher, chief of the wom-
ems and children's division of the
state industrial board
Mrs. Gremelspacher conducted a
child labor survey as part Of her
departments effort to cooperate
with the various other state de-
partments in carrying out the pro-
visions set forth in President Hoo
ver's White House conference on
child health and protection.
a go per cent decrease in the
number of boys between IA and Is,
and BIB per cent of boys between 10

industrial plants throughout the
state, Mrs. Gremelspacher's report
discloses.
4,O74 Plants Inspected
Figures we're tabulated from in
spections of 4,036 plants in 1890 and

clared.
This is rather a conclusive an
sWer to the question being asked at
the present time, Are employers of
Indiana using minor labor in pref
erence to adult labor" Mrs. Grem-
elspacher pointed out
Program Carried Out
These figures show that Indiana
employers are not using minor
labor in preference to adult labor.
IN fact they are showing a marked
preference for adult labor.
This department has been carry
ing on an educational program with
employers and social agencies over
Tn estate. The department has en-
deavored to impress the fact, where
ever possible, that increased educa-
ton for the minor means increased
earnings for him and greater profit
Tor his employer because of q more
skilled worker"
Number of men employed in the
plants inspected dropped from 49,

What Is an Ice?

Most Americans use the term "ice
cream" to indicate any sort of frozen
dish made with cream or milk, while
the word ice" they apply only to that
made without milk, cream or cream
substitute.
When one applies the word "Phila-
delphia" to ice cream one usually means
cream made of pure cream, sugar and
f1avoring. 1t Is the simplest and one Of
the richest Of these frozen dishes.
French ice cream is made with q Gus
tard made from eggs and milk, with
only small addition of cream or evap-
GRATED milk. Both French and Phila-
delphia ice creams are stirred during
freezing
Ices, as we understand them. are
usually made from some sort of fruit
| Juice or juices, with water and sugar
added. Some experts add beaten egg
whites to the water and Juice in max
| ing ices. Ices are usually frozen in
three parts ice to one part salt. Frappes
seem TO differ, in that they are not
frozen so stiff. They are frozen in
equal parts ice and salt.
Parfaits and mousses are made with
out stirring while freezing. They are
packed into molds and set in ice and
salt TO freeze. Parfaits are usually
made with egg yolks and sugar that
mas been melted and boiled until it
spins thread. The yolks are then
beaten light and the sugar is poured
slowly on them. Other ingredients are
ADDED, fruit juice or f1avoring; and
| hnally the cream is added, whipped
stif1: This is mixed and packed away
TO freeze. MousSes seem to be made
simply by whipping the cream and add
ing fruit, chocolate or other dainties.
The mixture is then turned into a
mold, sealed and put away in salt and
ice to freeze.

degree of immunity, against tubercV-
losis, diphtheria, smallpox or other spe-
ceific diseases. Immunity is always

against any other disease. The fallacy

to the pip, or what have you.
Ghosts and fairies are vague, too. l
might mention other conceptions which
are equally vague. prefer to reject
such vague and improved fancies and
cling to the ideas We can understand
tangible, practical. comforting ideas.
When I see a shooting star I say, "Oh,
oh, another universe comes to a glo-
rious end" When our turn comes wei
never know-So why think any more
about it?
We do know little about immunity
to tuberculosis. We know sunlight
helps one to gain more immunity. We
know the toxin of the tubercle bacillus
in the right doses stimulates the forma-
ton of antitoxin in the patients body,
and that's immunity. We know how to
regulate the tubercle-toxin dosage
through rest, exercise and other thera-
peutic measures.
Best of all, we know how to build up
immunity in any instance where i'm
munity is insufficient to make the pa
tent WELL That is the purpose of all
successful treatment.

Powder Puff

A convenient and inconspicuous sort
OF powder puff to use in the evening
may be made in this way: Buy a tiny
white powder puff and a chiffon hand
kerchief and sew the powder puff in
conSptcuously but securely to the CEN
ter of the handkerchief. Before YOU
start out in the evening dip the puff
in your favorite face powder, fold the
edges Of the handkerchief over lightly
and put 1t in your party bag. Then
when you need to add a bit of powder
TO your face during the course of the
evening you can stop before a mirror
and, opening your handkerchief, give
your face the little treatment neces-
sary without going through the obvious
gesture Of getting out a vanity case.

Evening Gowns
Have Little Goats

The woman who does not find bare
shoulders becoming or who feels I'M
comfortably chilly in an evening dress
of the sleeveless sort has reason to re-
ioice Many of the smartest evening
dresses are made with short jackets
that may be worn or left of, as one
wishes, and there is a continued vogue
for the evening dress with a bertha ar
rangement that covers the tops of the
arms. Sometimes bunch of artificial
flowers is worn directly in the center
of the decolletage at the front.
A decidedly looking evening
dress Of the classic type is made oil
black satin, with shaped inSets on the
skirt that give it snug line from waist
line and hips, with graduated fare
from the knees down. 1t is made with
out sleeves and with an austerely SIM
pie neck line, but is accompanied by
a short white satin jacket with long
sleeves.

There are double or single strand neck
laces made of beads of graded sizes, the
largest placed in the front. With this
necklace you may wear button earrings
or pendants and you may add a brace
let consisting of round, bead-shaped
pieces of coral, set in a transparent
band which is placed above the elbow
on the arm.
The new white coral ornaments, of a
soft ivory-yellow tone, also are very
smart. Button earrings of this sort are
decidedly good looking with the black
street costume, and If any necklace is
worn with them it should consist of
graded beads of the same sort of coral.
Ivory-white galalith appears in some
OF the new ornaments, being used for
| beads or rondels combined with silver
or other white metal.
Aluminium has been promoted to a
place of honor among the metals used
for smart costume jewelry, and If you
want an inexpensive necklace that will
look well with many costumes buy one
made of the new hammered aluminium
beads. These may be strung alone or
in combination with jade beads.
White leather will be much used for
handbags for Spring. White alligator
has been seen in the collections of ac-
cessories for Palm Beach wear White
calf and white kid also are used. One
Of the new white calf bags has a large
ornament of navy blue combination,
making it especially appropriate to wear
with the navy blue Spring ensemble.
The Scot type of neck scarfs remains
In high favor Some of these show the
combination of two colors-one solid
for the outside and a contrasting tone
for the lining.
Interesting scarfS for late Winter
wear are made from woven chenille in
two tones. Wool lace lined with chiffon
Is another novel fabric combination
found in the new scarfs.

Travel Clothes.

IT all depends, of course, where you
are going as to how many clothes
you must get before you start forth.
If you are going to Europe, by all
means get as few clothes as may be
before you 60. Then when you arrive
in London or Paris or Florence, aug
ment your small stock with new things
bought in the fascinating shops you
will find. You will save money In this
way and you will have the fun of buy
ing. Also you will have the fun of
bringing home when you return in
teresting clothes from various foreign
countries.
If you are travelling in this country,
there is no particular money advantage
to be gained by buying clothes in other
towns. If you go from small town to
a metropolis, you may want to buy
your clothes therein the metropolis;
especially If you like to shop. But you
may, on the other hand, be able to
make your money go further at home.

HOLLYWOOD. Calf, February 2
(N.ANA.).-Them most famous opening
in the history of Hollywood was more a
holocaust than holiday.
When the world premiere OF the
Chaplin film was announced everybody
agreed that here would be the most
distinguished audience the motion pic
ture industry had ever known.
Every one agresd that the street
crowds would be heavy; that curiosity
would reach its naive height-and this
community has reputation for that
little thing-but nobody suspected that
mobS, thousands strong, would line all
streets leading to the new Los Angeles
Theater, where the film was being
shown.
At 10 O'Clock performance scheduled
for $3.50 wasn't even making show Of
beginning. Limousines with liveried
chauffeurs were slowly worming their
way through humanity banked in the
streets-hufnonity that cheered or cat
called or good naturedly joked, as the
case might be; humanity that, despite
the vigorous attempts Of the police,
climbed up on the running boards of the
cars holding the famous, thrust their
heads into the windows and took a
good, bold lock at close range at the
crowned heads of the industry.
Behind us in the slow-moving van
was Gloria Swanson's car. Gloria her
self, seated between two escorts, laugh
ingly met the bold acclaim of the faces
thrust against the panes of her hnlou-
sine Her escorts didn't think it quite
so funny. They made some gestures to
that effect and promptly got a healthy
raspberry from the throng They
swarmed like ants all over her car,
leaped onto the tenders. lined the run
ming boards. Her chauffeur. plainly
frightened, tried to keep the machine in
its course 1t took the better part of an
hour to traverse the block leading to
the main entrance Of the theater.
Here a battery Of lamps made the
area before the building insutferably
hot. Add to it a rainy evening, so the
effect was like a steamy bath room.
Women tainted and the police had ire
mendous difficulty getting ambulances
In to render first aid. The theater is
in the most congested quarter Of the
city, so all traffic to and from was
necessarily slow, despite the crowds.
Street car service was paralyzed. Now
and again a flock of eight or ten cars
would slowly pierce that human bank,
which gave way only sufficiently to let
the cars through a short inch from
their noses.
Inside the theater an elaborate sup
per was served throughout the evening
It was almost 1890 before the show
began But the audience wandering
over the most elaborate and spacious

And often girls resent ability when IL

But that's all very different from the
silly snob whom have described. The
things she said seemed unbelievable.
But I have seen some strange things in
ONCE. In one ONCE there was girl
who sat at the front desk ard took in
the cards Of visitors. She was only II
years old and 1t was q perfectly good
job for her to do. In some ways she
really did It very well. But she was
ashamed Of her work So If anybody
asked her what she was doing she
would say. "Oh, I'm q sort of hostess
for the Office" She was extremely rude
to all the other girls In the place.
That was 90 years ago. and I occa-

In the world as the wife of an important
