BENJAMIN FRANKLIN, One
OF AMERICAS GREAT SONS

On January 18th occurred the 226th
anniversary of a great American who
should not be forgotten amid the ma
tons tribute to George Washington
this year; for this noted American
was not only a glory to our history
but without him Washington might
not have been able to achieve our in
dependence.
This great American was Benjamin
Franklin, who became, next to George
Washington, the best known Ameri-
can of the 18th century. Wherever
enlightened men gathered during the
lifetime of Franklin, they accounted
him foremost in philosophy, politics
and diplomacy, and to this day his
name is secure in history as that of
pioneer in science.
Franklin was one of the most YER
satile men of our history. His clear
thinking and good common sense won
him fame everywhere. AS for his win
ming personality, it proved tremen-
dous asset to the American cause. The
final victories of Washington on the
battlefield would never have been pos
sible but for Franklin's skill in the
field of diplomacy and his ultimate
winning of the French nation to
Americas side.
Benjamin Franklin was born in
Boston on January II, 1706, the Unit
ed States George Washington Bicen-
tennial Commission reminds US. His
father wanted him to learn the trade
of candle-making, an occupation that
he disliked so much that he threatened
to revolt. To forestall his running
away to sea, the boy Franklin was

Sutton of Atlanta, Ga, states that after six years of intensive dental and health education in Atlanta schools, the average per- centage of repeaters dropped more than half.

 Childhood diseases often develop because the body has been weak ened by bad teeth. Sometimes children are labeled stupid or in- competent simply because foul mouths have poisoned their sys- tems.

''What a heavenly time we had!" It was Sally's voice over the tele- phone, answeriwng my question as to how she had enjoyed her week at Southampton.
 "Simply heavenly!" she repeated "I'm coming into see you some time when you have about three hours free-instead of three min- utes, the way you usually have and tell you all about it. But right now, I've got to ask your advice !. No, not about me this time, but about Diana Morehouse. She simply would. not use the preveri- tive creams and things took with memo matter how much warned her-and the result is that now while look just grand and all evenly beautifully tanned--thanks to you-she looks perfectly awful. She's all red and blistered and peel ing and so sore that if anyone goes near her, let alone touches her shoulders or arms, she simply screams"
 "Poor Diana!"
 "Yes, that's how feel about her now, although I certainly warned her. But l don't want to be an I-told-you-so girl, and think the kindest thing I can do is to tell her, in my bread-ard-butter letter. that I've asked your advice about what she should do. She'll respect your opinion, of course, even If she doesn't mine!"
 Probably that's because my opinion isn't merely an opinion but scientific knowledge plus long years of experience with every type of skin."
 "Of course. Tell her first to ap- ply a sunburn cream which will prevent further blistering and soothe the painful burn. Then toll her to use "a pasteurized bleaching cream that will soften and mildly bleach her uneven dark spots as 1t cleanses and soothes her skin. Finally, let her use a beautifying skinfood to clear, purify and rour- ish her skin tissues, for after such exposure, the skin is in need of such nourishing and regulating. And, as final word of warning tell her to be sure to use pure powder and one that matches her present complexion. Mauresque

GLORIFYING
 YOURSELF
By Alicia Hart

LESSONS IN PoIsE -
 FOR YOUR HANDS
 When the cups and saucers are washed and dried, and the crumbs are swept away, most of us have a tendency to wash our hands in hot water, dry them, and forget them.
 And the tendency is entirely wrong. Hot water was never made for hands. It belongs to dishes and cupboards and kitchen hno- leums. It will make the pores of your hands twice as big as they should be. It will give them a glaring, red appearance that is anything but attractive, and it will make your veins pun up until you willu be embarrassed.
 Use warm water-water that Is warm enough to remove the dirt particles, but not warm enough to destroy the natural oils. Have a soft soap which does not contain harsh ingredients. Dry your hands thoroughly. Use hand lotion on them. Take an orange stick and press back the cuticle. Never let itg row over the base of the nail.
 When you are seated always keep the puiulS O1 yVuA A~hUS turned up. This is a much more graceful position than the one which turns them down. The blood doesn't flow into the veins. Consequently they are not en- larged and do not appear ugly.
 Place your hands in your lap. Have the palms turned down. Watch the blue veins grow larger. They stand out. Your hands lose charm. Now turn them over, palms up. The blood supply dim lshes. There is an added loveli- ness.
 That upward lit that applies to eyes and mouths and posture is also worth cultivating for hands. It keeps them smooth and young.
 When your hands rest on the arms of a chair, remember to turn them with the palms up.
 Practice in front of mirror. Put your hands down. Notice the sagging line. They appear tired. Now change the position. Youth, loveliness and beauty come f1ow- ing back. Your hands don't look as though they have worked all day, and are weary. They appear to be waiting to play.
 There is beauty in your hand. But you must hold your hand in the right position to catch 1t.

CRUSADERS HOPE
FOR REPEAL ACTION
Wet Organization Writes Garner
Looking for Consideration
in House.

Hope that the resolution calling for
repeal of the eighteenth amendment
will be approved by the House when it
convenes tomorrow is voiced in a let
ter filed yesterday with Speaker Garner
by national officers of the Crusaders,
militant wet body.
Only five States now are making any
effort to enforce the law, Speaker Gar
ner was informed by Rufus S. Lusk,
national legislative officer of the Cru
saders, in reporting the results of the
body's second survey of prohibition en-
forcement activities.
The statement was accompanied by
the Crusaders 1882 prohibition map,
which showed is States that have either
repealed or never had any prohibition
laws ard 20 States which have re-
tanned their prohibition statutes but
are not spending one cent on enforce
ment"
More than 44,0Oo,O0O persons are
living in States where the local author
tiles not only make no attempt to en-
force the law, but even the judges are
holding it in contempt" the Crusaders
declare. predicting that soon the num-
Der would be increased to about
In word, the condition is approach
ing chaos" the letter continued. THE
sooner the eighteenth amendment is
repealed outright as your resolution
proposes and is ripped lock, stock and
barrel from the Constitution, the sooner
each State, provided it does not want
prohibition, can and will institute a
sane system of liquor control best suited
to it's needs. And sane liquor control
is the only way to promote real tenn
perance.
Our people are impatient to see the
end of prohibition. They said SO on
November In language that child
could understand. Ultimate repeal is
inevitable We hope the House of Rep
resentatives gets it started on Monday"
