MISTAKES IN
 L0vE-MAKINC
 CAUSE OF WOE
Bad Housekeeping, Failure to Use Leisure Are
 Also Blamed
By HOWARD w. BLAKESLEE Associated Press Science Editor

NEW YORK, Sept. 3.-Mistakes in love-making, bad home making and failure to use leisure time constructively" were blamed for American marriage failures before the third International Congress of Eugenlcs.
 The three points summarize the intimate experiences of one of the few marriage counseling bu- reaus in the world, the Institute of Family Relations of Los Ange- les. Paul Popenoe, director, pre- sented the findings.
 Not every love-making difficulty leads to broken home, he said but in "our experience" almost every such home is preceded by enc. And several studies agree in suggesting that at least in the educated part of the population these difficulties exist 'in 25 per cent or more of marriages at any one time"
 MT. Popenoe advocated more sound education about marriage anc parenthood and said:
 ".Unfortunately, the trend o1 education during the past genera. ton has been unfavorable, because the dominance of a doctrinary feminist point of view has led to z depreciation of the difference be. tween the sexes and frequentl. between in ignoring them or deny. ing them altogether"
 Success Patterns Needed
 In home making there are para. lyzing fears of desertion amone many women and some men, mon. ctony and deadly routine" in honit life and a serious problem" O. women who feel the lack of prop. CT clothing to appear in society

WORK DONE ON MANY PROJECTS
 ALL OVER CITY
Community's Improvement Program One of Largest
 in Recent History

One of the most active com munity improvement programs in the history of this city, launched early last Spring as soon as wealth CT conditions permitted, is still in progress with crews working in several parts of town under the direction of Mayor Thomas B. Jud- son, and City Engineer Frank A. Metcalf. With many projects con- pletlAi, the seasons program, which probably will be extended through most if not all of the coming win ter, now has several completed projects with others in vario IS stages of construction.
 The crews employed by the City itself and forces of contractors working on municipal projects have been a major factor in keep ing down local unemployment From Lower Front Street through out various sections of the city including the Shattuck Addition word of varying character has been consistently in progress all Spring and Summer and is still going on The widening of Lower Fron. Street is partially completed and the work is moving steadily ahead The City Cafe was moved back 21 feet, the Alaska Juneau will take down shacks, the road is being straighuened and when completed the roadway will be approximate ly 30 feet wide.
 Has New Method
 Preparatory to this end all oth- CT improvements surveys were made by City Engineer Metcalf from 20 oo-ordinated points in the city. Formerly only one point was used, and because of lack of CO., ordination much confusion result ed. However, this has been large ly overcome through the new method, according to MT. Metcalf Some of the other work that has been done, and in progress 1n- cludes the large new concrete biulk- head back of the grade school, put in by the firm of G. E. Krause By installation of this wall thu hillside was cut back 20 feet and splendid playground for the chil dren resulted In addition seeo- age into the basement of the schoo building, which has caused much inconvenience and expense in tht past was eliminated.

COmposure of Winnie Judd, Slayer of ? Juneau Women,
 Is Now Beginning to Crack

cd Rev. H. J. McKinnell, Indiana minister, and his motherly, pe- spectacled wife.
 She has been given of late to incessant play of her hands, wind ing a handkerchief interminab,y around them, a "Sterotyped ges- ture," of which much was made during her trial as a sign of in- sanity.
 Rule on Appeal
 Some time this Fall the State Supreme Court will rule on her appeal. Though no one presumes to predict the decision, the con- sensus of seasoned legal minds lis that a reversal of her convic- tion would be amazing. She seems to suspect this, too. Unless the court intervenes, or Mrs. Judd is convicted" of 1n- sanity in this county, with the warden as the complaining wit ness" Or unless she dies in the meantime, sine will be executed some time next Spring. She will be the second woman to have been hanged in Arizona, Mrs. Eva Dugan having died on the gallows in 1929.
 Mrs. Judd killed Mrs Agnes Anna Leroi and Miss Hedvig Samuelsen two Juneau women, last october She was arrested in a Los Angeles railway station shortly after sh' tried to reclaim her baggage, whict : contained their bodies.

FLORENCE, Ariz., Sept. 3

FLORENCE, Arlz., sept. 5. - Winnie Ruth Judd is scared.
 The hard composure of the hawk faced blonde who killed her own two best woman friends and car- ried their dismembered bodies to Los Angeles in her luggage, has begun to crack at last, according to those who see her every day in the state prison here.
 In these sinister stone-and- metal surroundings, where each changing door is loud hamburger of the moment when a heavy metal door will open beneath her feet. Mrs. Judd is living what probably will be the last year of her life. And she is frightened. The sinister dreariness of the prison has done what all the solemn words of court and jury failed to do.
 Periods of Breeding
 Mrs. Judd prattled hopefully of her chances when she first came here and talked quite casually oi the gallows as fate with which she was being unjustly threatened but was certain to escape. Of late however, prison authorities said she has become wary of the word and seldom discusses her case al all. She is given to long periods ot breeding, when she tries to es- cape all company and sits in hel cell for hours. busy with needle work.
 There are days when she refuses to see her parents, the white-hal

Your Baby and Mine
BY MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED.
Pre- Natal Care.

The care Of the mother during the
prenatal period is far from being as
! universally observed as it should be.
Ihere Is rather common tendency to
say, oh, I feel marvellous. Why
should l go to a doctor?" Then the
mother throws the burdens upon her
! doctor at g later date when she doesn't
| feel so marvellous. This is unfair to the
doctor and grossly so to the mother,
Her condition. however normal, needs
attention from the first. She may
her carefully for the nine months. Bar
ring this, she may go to an obstetrical
clinic in a hospital or to some social
welfare agency devoted to clinics of this
| nature.
The mother will have to inquire in
| her own city about what help she can
! get in such matters. Doctors, social
| service agencies and hospitals are all
supplied with information about their
specific localities.
| Mrs. H M. c. wants to know what
so many mothers have asked me be-
, fore, When shall I consult a doctor?"
| She writes also: II am taking a tonic
because of my rundown condition, hav-
| ing had all my teeth extracted, and
wonder if lime water will help the baby
| w lIoNC d DCIbCl DOlIy 1LdlIiC"O4h w al

beneficial for me to read at this time?
have an unusual desire for oranges
! and lemons. What about that?"
The time 20 see a doctor is the mo-
ment that you are certain of your
| condition. This catering to cravings"
is a traditional attitude, foStered by
old wives tales which insisted that a
mother should have what she craved
This is as absurd as most of these
old ideas, and without foundation. 1t
is natural for any one who is slightly
nauseated to enjoy sour foods. There
fore, pickles, lemons and other acid
foods spring into prominence at this
time and are dignif1ed by the name
of cravings"
The mother needs a we'll rounded
diet. If she is the victim of poor food
habits, as many people are, she should
follow some good diet list which is
based upon a sound knowledge of nu-
triton.
The mother does need an abundance
of lime. One quart of milk daily, in
addition to a good diet, will supply the
mother with this lime. A three-times-
a-day dose of cod liver oil will insure
that her body makes the best possible
use of its mineral supply.
Liver or other internal organ meat
is exceedingly rich in iron and, like
all natural foods, is more appetizing
than tonics containing iron. Spinach
and eggs are other rich sources of iron.
Reference books, some of which are
entirely devoted to prenatal care, are
listed on one OF our leaflets This leaf
let may be obtained by sending a self
addressed stamped envelope with your
request for Reference Books for Par
ents." We also offer leafet on pre-
! natal care that should be of special
interest to you right now, Mrs. H M.
C. The title of this leaf1et is "Informa-
ton for Prospective Mothers" Address

Condolences.


This world is full of so-called myster
les. because there are millions Of things
that happen at the same time. There
can't help but be 8 great NUMBER of
condolences. Some of these are related
in some way. Or least they seem to be
related, to the minds of men and Wo-
men (moStly Women) who are always
on the lookout for something to happen
Nothing is more natural than dream
ing And it is by no means an I'M
common thing for dreamers to mistake
their dreams for reality. Many per-
sons dream of some calamities to their
personal interests, or perhaps, it's some
misfortune to their personal friends or
relatives AnXietieS for those dear to
them, but far away, are particularly
common. Now and then some mishap
to friends or relative comedies in time
with the corresponding dream. The
, dreamer then declares that he Cor she)
had vision" The slightest point Of
resemblance is enough to cause him to
make the whole dream over to suit the
facts.
What is true for night dreams is
even more true for day dreams, about
which we know little or nothing. One
thing is certain. We have thousands Of
them every day.
So when one of these day dreams
comedies with some event the day
dreamer gets a bunch" These myS-
teries may all be traced to the magma
ton. There is no other connection.

PERSONAL HEALTH SERVICE
BY WILLIAM BRADY, M. ID.

A correspondent offers his expert
enCe:
Il should like to give your reader
E. G. F. the benefit of my experience.
I suffered with thrombo-angiitis oblit-
erationS and was obliged to undergo
amputatiOn of one leg above the knee.
Later the disease set in in the other
leg and there was a serious gangrenOuS
condition Of the toes. I was again in
the hospital and the question of an
other amputation was seriously con-
Sidered
AT that stage I learned about DR.
and l went under his care He abSo-
luteIy forbade me to smoke and en-
phatically stated that he would refuse
to treat me unless l gave up smoking
entirely l had been a very heavy
cigarette smoker and found it very
hard to cut it out, so l cut down to
just a few smokes day, but the doctor
still insisted that a few smokes were
Just as bad as 40 day and said he
would retire from the case unless l
promised to give up all use Of tobacco.
I finally gave it up entirely and after
two weeks found it no hardship.
The doctor began giving me injec-
tions of saline solution. AS a result
=
cleared up, and I have had no Symp-
toms of the disease since that time
about two years ago.
Il am convinced that while smoking
may not be dangerous to most people.
there is minority of people who are
susceptible to thrombo-angiitis obliter-
ans and for those the habit of smok-
ing brings on the dreaded results of
the disease, so that it is absolutely
necessary for such persons completely
and suddenly to give up the habit.
II hope this recital Of my expert
ance may be of help to E. G. F., who
asked for your advice.
