say much for Pietro except that his food means well, and Angelo is not the ultimate in artistry. But Benito is without peer"
 Does Benito mean the Blessed ?'' asked Ginger. He is."
 When they reached Mill Rush Benito was waiting for them and with eager cries of delight led them out to the flagpole, which he had erected with his own hands, and where to his boundless and booming delight, a ed-headed woodpecker was pounding vibrantly.
 You see" he cried, cavortina about on the green grass. "A wood- becker! A red-headed wodopecker! That is good luck for this house."
 Ginger and Bard were eager in agreement. Certainly that house was the biding place of rare good fortune!
 "Look!" Benito went on, turning and pointing up to the corner oi the house. the southeast corner of the house, which he called his. You see that bird house? Right outside my window"
 Are there birds in it?' asked Ginger interestedly.
 Not yet. But wait. Birds will come. I sprinkle the floor with the finest seeds. I fill the bowl with fresh cold water twice. three times a day. Birds will come. Right out side my window. It's very lucky to have birds outside your window"
 Ginger and Bard followed him about for while from house to house, expressing interest and pleasure more to please him than else, and presently moved away But it was not solely to ad- mire the woodpeckers that Benito had enticed them forth. not entirely to display the smart new bird house he had built outside his attic window. He followed them down to the landing.
 Miss Ginger" he said. you take me in town and l go to Chicago to- night. To get my clothes and my money and to see my friends. To- morrow I come back. Miss Jenky she says all right. l go. I come."
 
 "Oh, you asked her first did you?"
 Benito shrugged his large shoul- ders.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1931-02-24
He's going to wire us."

Ginger gasped audibly. Who's he going to visit?" she ejacu- lated.
 "Why, IS. of course, dear"
 "Oh, us of course," repeated Gin ger. "How-nice! Speed Honey deal mel" She looked helplessly at her father, hopelessiy at Phil, lyearningly at Baro "C-couldnt we put him off a. while?' Why, darling. You are so fond of Speed"
 "Y-yes, of course" she faintly as- scented. But it is very inoppor- tune time I'm pretty busy right portraits-Benito gone"
 oh, dearest, am so sorry" Phil sounded most contrite. "I only asked him to come for your sake because you were so bored.'
 "Oh," Ginger pulled herself to- laugh. Dear me! So I was. well,' '' she added dryly, II fancy I'm going to be a whole lot boreder in the next ten days"
 will he stay here at Doorndee 2" asked Bard almost jealously. Per haps it would be more convenient for me to move in town-out of the way"
 Don't" Ginger laid a detaining hand upon his arm. '"The more the merrier. Always room for one more. Safety in numbers. The burned child dreads the fire. All that sort of thing. Phil" sine said suddenly, Tets ask Eddy Jackson to come too, to help liven things up-I'm- so@bored." But she laughed strangely.

YOUR CHILDREN
WMlIekebey7sRaradp JGi03) BY MA.SeRvlCe:

wish that scientists would get together and do something about this heredity business.
 One picks up book by a famous be ha viorist and he says hatly that it's myth. Give him any number of babies, he says, black, white or yellow. and he will make them fden- teal as to character in time-yes, and even mentally, for he claims that almost anyone can be made into a genius of a sort if taken at birth and trained.
 Then when we're all fixed and re- leved and everything we talk to mind" man, a doctor Jf six letters, who pounds the table and declares that we get our characters where we get our noses, from our ancestors. One such famous man ct the head of a large hospital for mental dis eases told me this himself. And there was again, back where I | started. Was I to believe that l never could do arithmetic because l l hadn't been started on it when | was weaned? Or because my grand
 mother couldn't do it either?
 Well. I believe the ayes had it for 8 while, that is the hereditarians
 had it over the behaviorists. They
 were a little louder, but there were fewer of them. We were being pret-
 ty complacent then about our sins,
 for when we forgot to order the but | ter, or didn't return our partners
 lead, or could not get the bank book | to balance. we let it go with. 'I
 couldn't help it. Grandma Smith
 would have done the same thing, so
 why worry. It's not really me.it's
 Grandma Smith,"
 Now the behaviorists Lave scored
 another run, for l see that a young
 professor in the Carnegie Institute of Technology says, and says em-
 phatically, that heredity is simply a | SUI uperstition. That We are what we
 are made into. no more and no less. l have feeling of something
 rather ominous in the gain of the latter opinion-this newer status of
 environment and guidance over
 heredity. Perhaps such a statement
 from me may surprise many par
 ed the part that proper training plays in the child's life.
 The fact itself, where we get our
 dispositions and wills and sensitive
 ness and all that, doesn't greatly
 matter as long as children are ham
 dled intelligently and parents do the best they can with the material. But l tnlnk that III the new ugnt
 it is putting a terrible onus on the
 parent, a frightening top-heavy re- sponsibility. He looks at a new born babe and reflects that in twenty years that child will be entirely his handiwork. If the child is a failure he alone is to blame. And I know many wise parents who have done all they humanly could yet whose children were wash-outs at 20.s In plain words, the idea of hered- | ity is a balance to my mind. And it encourages more than it discour- ages for nothing makes for inefficien- cy. in parenthood as in everything else, like corresponding.

Claire Lacey appeared one day in blouse and her wool skirt tuck-in blouse and her wool skirt with it's inverted pleat down the front. The sewing teacher asked Claire whether she would mind letting her examine the skirt to see how the pleats were put in. Claire said. mo indeed" The class studied the workmanship and soon all the girls could tell their mothers how to put the pleats in skirts. Nearly every girl had a dress with such pleated skirt. The method is as follows:
 Make plain skirt, preferably not circular one since such skirt is apt to sag with the best of skill in the making
 After the skirt is made or planned and the front breadth is cut. get the exact center front. Measure up this to the hin line and cut a straight line from bottom of skirt to hip line right up center fold. At hip line cut crosswise one and one-half inches each side of lengthwise cut. All told the crosswise cut will meas ure three inches.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1931-02-24

Cut straight piece of material fourteen inches wide and the depth of cut from hip line to bottom of skirt. Seam this on wrong side to-. the cut edges of skirt. This gives an insert of IA inches of material. But the skirt material is turned back the amount of crosswise cut so there is really IA plus inches. minues the small amount taken off for seams. Get the exact center of this insert and fold the material forward on itself so that two folds come down exact center of skirt. Pin and press in place Fold re- rf1ainder of material back toward sides of skirt. Pin. press and stitch as shown in illustration.

Spring IS the time to experiment. Just as you adore fixing your house over when warm days come, just as you cast a critical eye on your clothes, so you should look twice at your beauty and see if it doesn't need a little toning up, a little ex- tra attention, some new care and treatments
 There are so many new creams and facial oils on the market that it is impossible to estimate their real number. Many of them are the re- suit of experiment and 1t wouldn't hurt you to try out something new that seems suited to your deficien- cies.
 Newest are the creamy emulsions that are fragrant. soft enough to pour slowly out of fiacons and have double duty of cleansing and nOur- ishing. One woman, giving up three creams to try out one of these new emulsions. named it her face cus- tard" and is devoted to it. This type of creamy emulsion comes both in bottles and in tubes, depending on the make. Your department or drug stores will have them, if you want to try them out.
 There is a new bath oil out, not to be rubbed on the body but put into bath water; 1t softens the water and gives the desired fragrance.
 A new idea. incorporated by many beauty companies this spring. is to make up beauty ensembles so in get ting these you will have all you need in the way of beautiflers for the skin.
 One such has three preparations, a cleansing cream that liquifies when it comes into contact with the skin, toning liquid that also cleanses and refines the pores when used in conjunction with the third cream, which is a greaseless skin food.
 Another ensemble of beauty preparations for simple, basic treat ments for the skin consists, among other things. of one small vial of muscle oil for those fine lines about the eyes. A third beauty kit has cleansing oil, instead of cream. and anyone who has been treated to the relaxing satisfaction of cleansing oil, will take a look into this.
 The thing to do is not to let any one pick your new spring beauty preparations for you. Go into your department stores or your drug stores or your beauty shops and spend some time shopping about for your spring face tilt. For there 's no denying the psychological up-lift to the purchasc of some new beauty aidse Spring is the time to experi- ment. Beauty is cutie as good q field for it as clothes or interior decorating.

You are Just lost building blrds nests here in the woods. Benito. You should go in for diplomacy. She says it is all right does she? But how about all that money for fare?''
 Miss Ginger l tell you what. You pay me to Chicago and I'll pay me back"
 And do you promise faithfully that you VIII come back? Can we depend on you?"
 Benito laid a large hand in the general direction of his heart.
 Miss Ginger" he said solemnly. 'I come. My heart she will bring me-"
 Its too bad that she won't pay your railroad fare,' interrupted Bard facetiously.
 Since he had set his heart upon going there was nothing to do but asquiesce, and Ginger. half-fearing he would not return, held out as many inducements as she could. You know we're going to be mak- ing money here pretty soon," she said We've more than paid our ex penses already and it is largely due ! to you, Benito. You stand by us and we'll see that you don't lose by it." Again and again he promised He was sentimental about going away. He walked slowly through | the grounds. filled all the bird bowls with fresh water. cleared the debris | from the fountain, watered the flow CTS.
 | He took a look at every garden spot, rubbed down Mrs Carter, the mare. and clucked jovially to the 1 xt~s y4 IoI ;,, I.te n11 frightened up the bolts. shook out the rugs and blankets and emptied the cans of bait.
 "Benito, you are coming back, aren't you?" asked Ginger. tagging at his heels. You wouldn't just say it to fool me?"
 "To-morrow I will come back = if not tomorrow, then Saturday. You i be here on Saturday. You'll see. And Miss Jenky. too
 He'll make it Saturday. I'll bet Mrs Carter" said Bard. Hes dra- matic enough to want the gang on hand to give him welcome"
 Ginger drove him to the train, stopping at Ben and Jenky's for a fond adieu, and for the first time Miss Jenkins had the experience of having her hand kissed. It flustered that dear lady great deal.
 "Mr Benito," she said, "now don't you forget to come back. Seems like we just couldn't stand that place without you"
 "The real trouble with having him." thought Ginger, lis the slump that lies ahead of us when we lose him.
 But she had many things on her mind-Bard's portraits. in particu lar, as she was torn between the desire to promote his professional success and to keep him away from the better looking girls of the com munity.
 l In the end her better nature tri- umphed but the days were not without their sadder moments. She had never before realized the utter shamelessnes of the incest girls of her acquaintance in forcing their attentions on entirely diffident and disinterested men.
 It was after a particularly trying hour, when Miriam Updike had quite overstepped the proprieties for young ladies having their por- traits painted by lighting with her own hands and at her own lips a cigaret for the encountered artist. that Phil greeted her with deadly news, delivered it smiling. as though it were something to rejoice over.
 "Oh, Ginger" she cried, T have a surprise for you. Do you remem Der Speed Roney? He is coming out land will be here in a day or two.
