YOUR CHILDREN
TO THE, SOILl-
Rx Olixe Robert Rsrton
oissa s7 NEz sEszicF IES:

BACK TO THE SOILi- If a child is taught never to put his hands to his face--let me ac- cent this, by the way, very strong iy-I think that mothers need not be afraid of little dirt.
 There stays in my mind the pie ture of a family saw in the south. The father had a mule, blowing. The mother was carrying a bundle of sticks across the field toward suppose. And four little children, the little cabin - for ifirewood, I all under five or six, were sitting right out in the soft loam playing. They had nothing on, am sure, but the merest shells of clothes, certainly no shoes or stockings. The sun was out hot and strong, their faces were dirty, and they were all laughing. It did my heart good to see them because some way it seemed to me that was where they belonged. Fat, dirty, healthy young animals getting vie tamins straight from nature and not having it doled out in ounces by a trained nurse .who said naughty, naughty" whenever a spot appeared on clean pinafore.
 I am perfect fiend about chil- dren having ground to play on yes mud, if it's warm--and little puddles to wade in and only few duds to bother them. One good bath a day and an occasional washing of hands and faces ought to keep them in fairly good order.
 Vital Things Overlooked
 We weary the life out of them al a smudges and spots. Like a good for the superf1uous, hte extraneous and the artificial, and we have drained away the vital things.
 I believe in sanitation and anti septics because under our present condition of herding into cities with their lack of air and sum- shine, they seem to be necessary, but they will never take the place of Mother Earth.
 When I see an immaculate child walking primly along the concrete beside its mother or nurse, want to grab it and whisk it out to a muddy field or a grassy plot some- where and say, Enjoy yourself get dirty, roll around and kick and forget bottles and measuring cups and clocks--and being everlast- ingly clean" They will never take the place of the sun and the ground and pure fresh air.
 Children today are robbed of something that used to be a nat ural heritage-the country. Boys need to climb trees and fences and go fishing; so do the girls. The babies need to roll around on the ground and dig.
 Apartment children don't have half a chance. Children with no back yard (there's the garage) haven't either. We need more parks and playgrounds, but. you young parents who are moving we need more country.

Buttons Go On Dress Parade In Military Mode
By JOAN SAVOY NEA Service Writer

This spring, the question of
 Who's got the button?" if easily answered.
 The answer is: Almost every modish woman"
 For Dame Fashion has literally button-holed all her chic little children, and the smart lady who once was content to "button up her overcoat" now. finds herself do- ing the same thing to trim, mili- tary new daytime frocks. And sometimes to formal gowns, too!
 If you think buttons aren't go- ing to be the supreme decorative element of the season, just knock on wood. In fact, you can knock on the wooden buttons of the novel outdoor-and-indoor dress which Barbara Schwinn has sketched to. day. Just look at them, as the slim. smiling young woman steps into her roadster for a spin through the countryside. See for yourself to what lengths buttons can go-all the way from the neck to the wrist! And between but tons, the skin plays peekaboo with the spring sunshine.
 Beautifully nodded to the figure, the circular skirt. gives a graceful movement to the costumes. The dress Is of dyed twine with an interesting pattern of hand-woven angora. It is very successful in teter de negre or midnight blue with red buttons.
 Above the high, fitted waistline Is blouse with high neckline and large sleeves that betray the Rus sian influence.
 Add one dash of blue tip.tilted sailor--and serve to an admiring public!

Corrinne Calls at Sues House "Corrinne!" The word slipped from Ruth's lips in startled sur prise as Corrinne entered the liv- ing room.
 | "Sue where is she ?" Cor rinne's gay, flippant voice half lost in shadow sometimes, vibrant with magic at others, was fright ened now. "She isn't she <. won't ."
 She's sleeping" Ruth answered. Wont you sit down?"
 But have to see her!"-
 "After a while. Not just now. She can't be disturbed. She is go- ing to be all right but the doctor said the least jar might make her worse."
 "Who was the doctor?" Cor rinne asked. "'Dr Raynor? But you naturally would believe any thing he said. Doctors always say that. It's expected. They don't really mean it." Then she saw the quick, hurt look in Ruth's dark eyes, she caught her breath. "Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't mean that. But you and he have a habit of be- lieving each other, I know, and you would obey his orders"
 You must be confusing me with my sister," Ruth answered in a steady voice. "Dr Raynor is en- gagged to Sally, not to me-" "Oh, didn't know that. I'm sorry again, then. But I must see Sue!"
 You will have to wait," Ruth said. "I'm merely try to pro. tect her. She had an ugly bump tonight"
 q know" Corrinne sat down suddenly. She seemed very small, very white, very scared. Her dark eyes were enormous tonight. T didn't know what had happened. But I thought 1t was strange that the girls wouldn't come in but

CLORIFYING
 YOURSELF
KINDS OF uHARM.
By Alicia Hart
O Rlqsz sf NEA Sl=l3HlcE I!!

! rI" Long ago, in one of Barrie'a plays, someone asked: s'What is 1 charm ?"
 The answer is to the effect that charm is that thing that a woman sometimes has and if she has 1t she doesn't need anything else. But, if she hasn't charm, then no matter what she has, it doesn't suffice.
 There are, of course, many dif- ferent kinds of charm. Tn Vienna of Paris, for instance, a woman may charm men by the sheer bril- lance of her intellect and wit. In China, 1t may be the very soft wo- man1iness of a delicate Chinese girl that makes her 50 charming.
 Tn America, youth has charm for almost all men. That. perhaps, is why older women care so much for preserving the appearance Of youth.
 They may be making a mistake to spend their lives pursuing beau ty, thinking it is the only high they become so self-centered that they may lose those qualities that make for beauty. Moreover, arti- fatalities do not make for charm. A fragile, Dresden china bit of an old lady, white haired, perfectly natural, her face alight with in- terest in what goes on about her. her heart gentle and understand ing, may have q thousand times more charm than her sister who Is dyed, had her face lifted, wears the latest clothes and knows the last joke.
 American women have the rep utation of being the most sfnart1v dressed and best groomed In the world, the most successful in busi- ness and the prettiest. But you do not hear many folks talk about the charm of American women. For, in achieving these other quail ities, they often have lost charm. They are too brittle.
 The first requisite is to be your self. Natural easy, understanding, interested. I suppose no person on earth is charming who is too self centered. Therefore, if you want to be charming, try practising every day to think less about your own work, your own private affairs your own this and that. Begin de- finitely to interest yourself in others. It is the one way towards becoming charming.

And and somebody picked up a vanity case. It was one had given Sue last Christmas and I had her in- itials put on it. Then knew!"
 "But she's going to be all right" Ruth said gently. There isn't anything at all for you to worry about"
 ooh, you don't know!" Cor rinne sat erect and her slim brown fingers clutched her pocketbook conslusively. "I said so many mean things, and I didn't mean them. Not ever! I don't know what was the matter with me. Oh, yes. I do! I found an old picture of Sues that Harry had. He didn't know that I knew it. He didn't know that he had it. found out later. It didn't mean anything. But it made me furious for fear that it did. was scared. And so :. took it all out in spite. I've been awful. If she had died =. .Oh, if she had died!"

"He told me they'll probably set- tie out of court" Ellen responded in a vague, uninterested way. "Stev- ems last will, the last one he sign ed, left most of his money to his sister, but I guess Leda Grayson. as his window-she seems to be ac- cepted, as his widow-probably has a claim on some of it."
 You aren't sorry about that?" Myra asked curiously.
 Ellen considered. "It would have been nice to be rich." she admitted honestly. 'Nice for mother and for Mike. Still I'm glad I didn't take any money. It makes the whole thing seem bet ter somehow - makes 1t easier to forget and that's what want to do."
 Myra hazarded.
 Truly Ellen thought that she had.
 The following night Ellen return ed to Dreamland and danced again. solomon rejoiced at the chance to regain her services. None of the other hostesses was tnQuisitive about what she had been doing none. that is, except Tony. Tony was difficult with her teasing, per- sistent questions but Ellen only told her that she had changed her mind about being married. After a while Tony reluctantly let the mat ter drop there.
 Ellen found the evening long. A light and feverish restlessness seized her when she heard the familiar voices, saw the familiar setting and familiar faces. As she danced again and again and filled her pocketbook with green tickets. as she sat smiling across the table seeming to listen to her partners conversation, she was thinking that at any moment Lar ry might come swinging through the door. But he did not come.

EXPLAINS CAUSE
OF WORLD SLUMP
Field Gives Comprehensive
Discussion at Meeting
of Inquiry Club

On a thesis often mulled ovel
by economists before and after the
unhappy days of the Wall street
debacle of 1929, the Red Lodge
Inquiry club Thursday night heard
a lucid discourse by H. B. Field,
school superintendent, on "The De-
pression-What Caused IT."
1.-THE Wall Street explosion
said Mr.. Field, "is likely to take
its place in history with the
'sBlack Friday" of Civil war timse,
and the "South Sea Bubble" of
British history as one of the fl
nancial turning points of time.
But the Wall street explosion did
not actually start the blaze, it only
spread the flames :"
Pointing to the nature of the
depression, he said that the slump
was world wide, rather than an
American affair solely, that it had
become evident in the United
States and other countries before
1929. Economic prophets had dis
cerned it upon the horizon before
