 The art dancers, billed as the Classic Nine," were not regular troupers. That is they were not regularly booked, but instead were trying out new number. It was soon clear that all of them were down on their luck, stretching possibly go.
 Lottie confided to Sheila, busy with her cosmetic pan, that the only good number in the "Classlc Nine's" act was @ scarf dance done by the two little blonds. Lottie was 0 blond too, but there was a difference. The two youth full dancers had honey-colored hair which obviously grew that way without benefit of art or decoration.
 However, Lottic mightp feel, Shelia soon was aware that these girls were not trying to appears superior. They were not cheap, Sheila would have told you. The shabby little street suits which they were busily donning were well cut and reminded Shelia of the clothes worn by the smartest "Follies" girls. Dark, plain, un- ostentatious and expensive. Not fluffy, or loud as so many chorus girls costumes. Their hats were just hats-difficult to describe but suave and sure of themselves.

 Her hair would do, though she was sorry there had not been time for a shampoo and wave. Now that the exchequer was about to be replenished. Sheila could afford that.
 She lighted the tiny lamp, melted the cosmetic in the litle frying pan" and beaded her lashes carefully. Darkened her lids with blue-makeup, crimsoned her lips with generous strokes. dabbed rouge high on her cheek bones. Close at hand she looked grotesque, anything but intrigu- ing. But beyond the footlights the patches of color would be sub dued to 6 natural flush, hazy loveliness, glowing and sparkling with health.
 Next came her hose, carefully smoothed on, and her dancing slippers: A silken slip and then Daisy's frilled gown, tight at tho waist and billowing to her knees. If 1t had been fitted to Sheila 1t could not have been more suit able. She would wear 1t for the first number. Lottie, rather grand and aloof in tiara and sweeping blue satin, watched as Sheila promenaded across the dressing room.

She was seated now. She stopped talking.
 "No father likes to think that q girl has used his son as a stepping stone to better things" Judge Thornton answered in a voice that was curiously detached. Sue al- most thought she caught a thread of sympathy in it, though then de- cided, as he talked on, that she had been mistaken. Junior partners and the bosss sons have always been prey, you know.

 Judge Thornton nodded. "Yes, there was Harry Becker, who was in love with you for a while. But you didn't act quickly enough. Your sister married him."
 "But she loved him and he loved her. Why shouldn't they have mar ried. 1 didn't want Harry Sue an- swered.
 She didn't realize that Judge Thornton was talking against time because he was suffering as he re- membered that Jack might be dy- ing. And Judge Thornton didn't re- alize that Sue was putting words into sentences and fiinging them at him for the same reason.
 "If you loved Jack enough you wouldn't have taken him away from his father. He was grieved about 1t. He told me-" Joe DeXter's words interrupted. Her tones were silvery clear.
 "He told you, Joe?" There was hungry wistfulness in Judge Thorn tons voice.

Being beautiful is bit of a skin game.
 Take excellent care of your face. neck and hands, lavish attention and lotions on them, massage and pat and you'll get so that you can see why your friends think you are lovely. It is tho old skin re- juvenated that's done it!
 January is hard month on every woman. Fatigue over the holidays is cumulative thing. Your digestion Is apt to be inn paired too. And. last but import ant, you've been so busy you have let the care of your skin go.
 Buck up, don't let the winter get you!
 First, try warm oil treatments at night for week. They'll relax that tense face so that it will smile gratefully. Here is how to do 1t.
 Cleanse your face first, remov- ing all the obvious dirt of the day. Then heat a good facial oil in a little container set in very hot wa ter. Dip your fingers into the oil, when it is hot and work a gener- ous amount of it into your face. up from the mouth, around the eyes, out over the temples in TO- tating motions, up under the chin clear around under your ears and across the nape of your neck. Keep dipping into the hot pot so that 1t reaches your face good and hot. Rub briskly as you apply. Let it stay on for 20 minutes, while you give yourself a manicure, or a pedicure, or brush your hair or just relax.
 This nightly hot oil treatment will do several things for your skin. First, 1t relaXes and soft ems skin that is dried out with fa- tigue and hardened by exposure to hot apartment house air and mean outdoors atmosphere.

UYYOUR
 CHILDREN
By Olive Roberts Barton
01055 5Y Nf7 sfeNcE. INc

One night during the last heavy snowfall we were driving along a boulevard when, rounding a curve, we came upon a group of two dozen or so children with their sleds.
 It was only because the road was decently wide and there were no other cars near us at the moment, that we were able to swerve into deep snow and save one little chap who was almost under our wheels.
 Another little boy kept on ahead of us after we strengthened the car. It seemed as though he must be blind, deaf and dumb, to defy danger the way he did. We were afraid to drive around him because he might take it in- to his head to bolt either one way or the other. We couldn't stop because another car behind us might crash. We couldn't take to the left because other cars were coming in the opposite direction. By and by the lone runner was joined by others. They kept right on going ahead of us. Sled Near Wheels
 Then suddenly, I thought we surely were in for 1t. As I looked out of my side of the car I saw a dark shadow glide by, almost under the step. He couldn't have been. twelve inches from our wheels.
 He shot past our lights, turn ed in and then, he, too, was just ahead. Finally we reached an- other group of young mushers. This time we could stop and did. Say, boys" I yelled. You'll all get killed if you sled-ride out here. Please don't. It's terribly dangerous"
 There was silence for while and then one spoke for the crowd. "It's all right. We live here"
 "Well, be careful" was all I could say. "Some ones going to get hurt as sure as anything"
 The next day I saw what I ex- pected to see in the morning paper that thousands of children had been killed or hurt in coasting ac- cidents that week all over the country.
 That is as bad as war. The lit- tie fellow who answered, Its all right. we live here." gave the req son for so many accidents. A feel ing of safety. They knew their streets and neighborhoods. They play about and nothing ever hap pens to them.
 It doesn't seem to occur to these little people that death can ride in to them so quickly and surely from outside. Where their parents are I don't know. But they trust the kind motorists to look where they are going, and their children to keep out of the way, I guess. It must be that.
 There is too much trusting all around. But no one trusts an ex- press train. In many ways it Is safer than an automobile.
 Surely every one knows now the mighty power of car, even car going slowly. It cannot be stop- ped with all brakes on under fifty or hundred feet at the very least. Turns complicate matters; the unexpected terminals of other streets or roads, the car approach ing the other way prevents turn ing out. And night sledding is twice as bad because the lights of a car play tricks with shadows. Night sledding should never for moment be permitted except in the country.
 The pony cart had to go, the bi- cycle almost; now I believe it is the turn of the sled. At least in cities and on highways where cars cannot be regarded as anything but potential death.

Sue had not noticed that she had been seen. She didn't catch the lifting of Judge Thornton's eye brows. She was surprised when he crossed the floor and called to her as she stumbled down the hall. She knew only that her eyes were filled with tears. That the future was strangely blinded. Not that lun- cheon engagement with Joe could mean anything to Jack! Not that for minute, she told herself Only she wished that he hadn't been with her when this happened. Joe would magnify 1t, eXaggerate it, use 1t as q weapon of torture. There was nothing kindly. or sympathetic about her. After all, when wom- an loved Il man, she didn't like to share him-even for luncheon en- gagements--when the other woman had an interest that she tried to make possessive.
 "Sue, won't you wait with us?" Judge Thornton asked and his voice was kinder.
 There was no other place to go, Sue told herself. She might as well.
 "rhank you. Are you sure 1 won't be intruding?" she couldn't prevent herself from asking the question.
 After all, you are Jacks wife" Jacks father answered.
 "But you wish that he had mar ried someone else. You are sorry that I am," Sue said in a curiously quiet voice, winking back the tears that gave her eyes bright blue shiningness. "Ive always been sorry-that you couldn't like me-"
 "But l appreciated your work very much as stenographer."
 "Oh, but don't mean that! You didn't want Jack to marry me. It has always hurt. Not for my sake. But for Jacks. It worries him. He admires you sol"

ROAST CHICKENS FOR l FARMERS BECOMING SCARCE

Cleveland, (UP)-Roast chick on on the ohio farmers table is becoming unusual because the little brown hen has become more valuable in the coop than in the pot.
 Eggs have reached their highest prices within the past few years, H. s. Ward. county farm agent, said, and the hen has become the farmers most profitable revenue producer.
 A drop in feed prices and im- proved production methods are responsible for the greater profits to be earned. Large producers have their hen houses equipped with artificial light. which allows the hen to think the day is long, er She eats more food. exercises more, and lays more eggs. Then the large hennerles add cod liver oil and alfalfa leaves to the ground corn, wheat and oats which improves the chickens diet.

THE FORGOTTEN MAN"

A few days ago. long and interesting list Of
Calhoun farmers, on the back of "Uncle Sam"
reached this sanctum. A perusal of the 13 lengthy
sheets was an eye-opener to some more revelations
of government business. 1t shows that there have
been 767 borrowers from the Seed Loan Santa
Claus in the small county of Calhoun. We Won
dered from the first how "Uncle Sam" would play
the role of lien merchant. These sheets tell the
tale. Up to January /, 1888, there are 1852 of the
767 (just about so per cent? given as delinquents
on payments. These unpaid accounts range from
less than a dollar to over 1900 dollars.
There was an apparent continuance of loans In
spite of unpaid balances, in a great many in
stances. To make sure of the situation, safe
business committee and economist was asked
about this. He said that cotton, in cases,
had been hypothecated to the government in ware
houses, but admitted that many more were total
losses. He also confessed that the government has
made little or no effort to collect. He cited cases
where all the crops had been sold and the parties
left the state. The addresses of some of these
were procured and turned over to the government
but nothing was ever done about it, pouring out
millions of dollars to make cotton then ploughin9
it up, and making effort to collect the millions
Such tactics not only encourage dishonesty, but
put heavy tax on those who fight their battles

BETTER TAKE TIME

The average man wants the recovery program to
do big things for him and right now-no delay
about it. If it shows no such fondness for him. he
begins to squawk.
That's universally the Capital seeks in
slant and larger dividends. Labor wants quick and
higher wages Merchants want more sales with
greater profits Producers think their wares should
bring twice as much as they did yesterday.
That old profit motive sticks out everywhere and
human avarce has not been put to sleep by the
dreadful blows sent against it by the hard times
of the past four years.
Recovery that will be as fast as lightning is de-
srabe, to be sure, but not necessarily the wlseSt
recuperaton.' Better to wait and get legitimate
prosperity than to hurry and build up fungus
type that will blow up with the slightest pricking
of evil fortune.-Charotte Observer.

pie to work when work is offered, or IN
cases where employment is declined, to
cut off relief support.
The greatest weakness of the public re-
lief program is its tendency to make loaf
ers and beggars out of certain proportion
of the population. The loafers and beg
gars are always with US, of course always
have been and always will be; but they
are here and everywhere throughout the
country in larger numbers today than at
any time in the past. To guard against the
building up of a class of millions of these
shirkers and mendicants the authorities
will be compelled to take rigid action.
People must be put to work wherever pos
sible; and those who refuse to work should
be dropped from the public relief rolls.

WOULD BE A NEW PROBLEM

The News and Courier in an enquiring frame of
mind asks this question:
Why not distribute the wealth of South Carolina
among the poor? Who are the wealthy? If the
100000 audit men and women in the state had the
mills the railroads and the power companies, what
would they do with them? Tax the mills and the
lands out of the possession of the people who own
them and we shall have problem, not much of
unemployment as of starvation.
There is not much popular consideration given t.
the matter of directing and operating industries
so that people can have work. The plants could
not operate themselves and without capable and
competent direction they would not operate very
long
Government ownership, of course, of all indus
tries, would keep wheels turning but where is the
American workman who would change places with
Russian workman? Black bread and bean soup
would not please over here very long and no Rus
sian workman can own an automobile of any kind

self and the "fanatical lies and
provocation'' connected with it.

sian premier and one of Hitler's
most trusted ieutenants, is de-
scribed as drug fiend' in the
book and is charged with having
directed operations" in the
Reichstag trial. Edmund Heines,
the report continues, "a murder
err, was entrusted with the leader
ship of the incendiary group" anC
Marinus van der Lube, one ,ol
those on trial in Leipzig, is called
the "toop' and scapegoat of thu
