GLORIFYlNG
 YOURSELF
|. By Alicia Hsrt HES

Most girls makeup carefully when their best beaux are coming Saturday nights.
 But how many young wives take the time to makeup after tho babies are put to bed and it's time to sit down to dinner with hubby?
 Dash some cold water onto your face, when you've tucked in the in- fant. Then use little powder base for face lotion, put on your rouge, lipstick and even a bit of eye-shadow, dust over the powder and see if you won't contribute Il little more to the evenings enter tainment.
 Probably the greatest benefit will be to yourself. Just getting that last glimpse of yourself look ing pretty will do something 10 your spirits. Those same spirits will do something to make your husband forget imitation, the extra work he's doing for the same pay.
 Your hair is very important. Thank fortune the old days of curl papers and "boudoir caps" are gone. Practically 80 per cent of women now take pride in keep ing their hair fixed" But not that many take the time or trouble to do it over and take some pains with it every evening. Why don't you pay special attention to 1t!

 CHILDREN
By Olive Roberts Barton
olsss 6TNEz sfaNel. INe

Why is it that some children grow up with a haunting rear or poverty while others reach matur- ity without the slightest sense or financial responsibility?
 We reply glibly, Because some are too poor, and others too rich. | Yes, alas, this is only too true. But 1 1t is not the answer because we can take any level we choose, poor, rich, or the larger medium, ana find children with the same ao- vantages-or disadvantages = as unlike as it is humanly possible 10 be- .
 MT Smith, say, earns $16O a month and lives on B street. He has a wife and two children. Next door in the same row lives MT Brown with the identical family and the same salary. The children are of an approximate age.
 Different Paths
 Both families have about the same number of emergencies, ill., ness and all that. Both Mrs Smith and Mrs Brown are hard workers as are their husbands.
 But the dividing wall between the houses is more than a wall. It is sign post that prints east and west. The children Smith and the children Brown although they are good friends and play together are routed in absolutely opposite directions, both leading nowhere.
 No one notices this until the children are 15 or so, at about the time the neighbors begin to say, Billy Smith and Johnny Brown will soon be able to help their parents"
 But their mothers aren't so sure. For the first time they begin to lie awake nights and wonder. Plaint of Poverty
 Since he was baby, Billy Smith, with his sister, had one long plaint poured into his ears, the plaint of poverty. The troubles of his parents became his, the dread of the future, the unhappi- ness of the present, the meanness and unfairness of the world, the bitter inferiority' of the poor. Every inch of the struggle he shared at a time when his baby mind distorted and exaggerated. Never too strong of will, putty pounded into queer shapes by com- plicated adult problems he never quite understood, he had reached puberty with 6 sense of defeat. In- stead of encouragement he had been fed on bitterness. Confidence or courage were words unknown. Both Extremes Bad
 Johnny Brown was a spender. His parents had sacrificed and de- nied themselves to sublimate their children. Every bit of struggle had been kept secret. Johnny and his sister must never suspect how really poor they were. Money problems never met their ears. It was quite to be expected that the world would do for Johnny what his parents did. A maximum of pleasure with q minimum of work. Johnny too was defeated before he began. Such an attitude is as fatal as the other.
 Two extremes, both bad! Every household should consider its chill dren entities in it's problems, but not to the extent of either dis couraging or spelling. Some things they may be spared, some things they certainly should know. But they have @ right to normal viewpoint of family affairs. It will be their best weapon later to be normal, energetic and unpreju- diced.

and their plans for this summer. Finally he came to the point with rush. 1T really came to ask you about Bill Johnson, Doctor" he said. What about Bill ?"I asked. Well, it's like this" he continued: "Bill': getting restive and I'm rather afraid we're going to lose him from the scouts" And you don't want to?" "We certainly don't. Bills been credit to the troop. As you know, he's first class scout and leader of his pa trol. But he's growing up so fast that I'm afraid he's beginning to think he's too old to be a scout"
 I thought this over for a mo- ment. Lets see. Bills about six teen and half, isn't he. Old enough to feel quite grownup and independent. Rather beyond the gang stage. eh, Rogers? Unless. of course. he's sufficiently interested in being a leader"
 MT Rogers smiled. "You've hit it exactly, Doctor" he said. For some time now I've had an idea of making Bill Junior Assistant Scoutmaster." Then, seeing no doubt that I looked puzzled he explained further, "I have an As- sistant Scoutmaster already but he's kept on. the hop pretty much all the time and there's plenty of work for a Junior. The question is is Bill Johnson fitted for the job?"
 But why ask me?" I protested. Because you know the boy well, Doctor. I've already spoken to his patrol members, to his class teacher at school and to the ath- letic coach, but I'd like your opin- ion too."
 This needed little thinking over. Was Bill really a leader? Would 1t help him to develop him. self more fully if he was given this opportunity decided that he was, and that it would! You know, Rogers" I said, "Bill did excellent work this winter organiz- ing and running the winter carni- val, and I saw for myself how well the other boys work with him. Then, too, I've been on long fish ing trips with him and I know he's a good sportsman in every sense of the word. And finally, I've ssen him at home and watched him ac- cept responsibility cheerfully and intelligently. Yes. feel safe in saying that if I had a son young CT than Bill, I'd be quite content

f.-Yes. think so. The famous Bishop Bucknell used to say. there are times when our highest duty Is to refuse to do good" He meant that by giving ourselves to some immediate service we often exhaust our energies which. If wisely conserved. would enable us in time to render a higher service. I think this answers this woman's problem. Many noble women give their lives in this way. when a wiser self-interest, wiser both for self and others. would enable them through their own increased hap piness and efficiency to serve more abuntantlv the ones they love.

 "Im quite sound emotionally and mentally" Nancy told Arnold Page. And I'm dreadfully in love with you! But I've seen so many marriages turn into bread-and- butter affairs. The interest left. There wasn't any raspberry jam for the bread any longer. People grew inquisitive. If there isn't trust in marriage - it isn't worth much. If the structure isn't strong and deep and fine ."
 Darling .'
 q know. I sound rather maud lin, don't I? But I'm not. I'm trying to tell you that you won't be fretted, you'll be free, for if two people can't be trusted with freedom there isn't any sense to the marriage. If you won't come back to me wanting to come back every time you make a fortnight's trek into some jungle where women can't go, then our marriage isn't a success. But If you come hurrying, -

 She smiled gaily. "oh you do understand"
 And now shall I give speech, too?" he asked little teasingly.
 "No, mine will do for both of us."
 Well, just remember, that if there isn't a fire and a lamp and tna xunlIIGn'f he any sense in coming back at all. Putting everything else aside get this, Nancy" His voice was a little hoarse. "I've loved you all these years. It hasn't been fun. l did n't want to remember. But did. T Nancy lifted her face to his again. and for a second surrender ed herself to the closeness of his arms. But she was thinking, dim ly, remotely, that only the Ulysses of the world sailed wandering seas The Penelopes waited at home for the glimpse of the crimson sail that told that a warrior had re- turned. And yet Arnold had come back had remembered .. Maybe men. too, were hurt. May be she had been wrong in thinking that only women suffered greatly.
 Nancy, darling, there Isn't much time

 The rush of obtaining the mar riaee license in the wide, dreary room of the courthouse, with just the desk lamp shining on the reg ister which bore the names Of those who were plighting eternal love, seemed like a dream.
 Nancy, gazing at the names on the register, wondered how many of them would find what they wanted; how many of them would take what they found and build from it as best they could; how many would give up when the pieces of the marital puzzle didn't 20 together easily. Life took bravery took strength and humor and sympathy
 But l mustn't philosophize. It's my wedding night. I'm marry ing Arnold!" she told herself and suddenly the old mad sweetness from across the years came blow ing back.
 Happy, dearest?" she heard him murmuring.
 "Dreadfully. Are you"'
 The magic carried Nancy across the threshold of Sue and Jacks waiting house.

 MT Rogers thanked me and told me that my opinion coincided with the others he had heard. He as- sured me that he would have no hesitation now in offering Bill the job of junior assistant scoutmaster. and that he hoped Bill would find renewed interest in scouting. we need people like Bill" he wound up, "to be our scoutmasters later on."
 I must remember to ask next time I go to the Johnsons' wheth- CT Bill has accepted. hope he has, for I know that his years of scouting have meant a lot to him. and I should like to see him pre- pairing to help other boys enjoy the pleasure and the benefits that Boy Scout training provides.

2.-No. When one seeks self improvement solely for Its increas- ed money value. he is doing pre- cisely what the whole world was doing for a generation prior to the present economic crisis, namely, losing sight of the things that money cannot buy. To some ex- tent society recognizes self cul- ture by giving it larger earnings. but when the earnings become the object, self-improvement ceases to be true culture of the spirit and improvement of the inner self. These arc values that money can not measure.

 To make caulifower fritters dip cooked howerets into fritter batter and drop into deep hot fat. Serve with cheese sauce.
 Broccoli fritters are made the same way.
 Any cooked vegetable can be drained and added to the fritter batter and dropped by spoonfuls into hot fat.
 Two tablespoons sugar are add ed to the batter for fruit fritters. Apples. bananas, canned peaches drained from their juice, drained pineapple-in fact any canned fruits may be drained from their juice and added to the fritter bat ter. Bananas and pineapple are dipped into the batter while other fruits are usually added to the bat. ter and cooked by spoonfuls. Clans and oysters make deli cious fish fritters and are made in the same way. It's a good idea to add few drops of lemon juice and Worcestershire sauce to this bat ter. They are good served plain or with horseradish sauce.

SHALL BILL JOHNSON QUIT
 THE SCOUTS?

I had a surprise visit the other evening from our local scoutmas- ter, Mir Rogers. He dropped in just as I finished dinner, and as I have known him more or less in- timately for several years l was glad to see him.
 He had come, he said, to ask me if T would be good enough to act as judge in a first aid test which one of the patrols was holding this week. Of course l said 1 would be only too glad, and we settled the day and hour for the test.
 But this was apparently not all he had come to see me about, for he fingered, talking about the boys

CURRENCY DROPS
TO UNIFORM Level
Increased Gold Coverage Also
Stressed as Favorable Sign for
Sound Money Advocates.

The amount of money in circulation
has fallen to uniform levels. standing,
on August 2, at $5618,O0O, 900. or S1lO.-
600, 900 less than on the comparable pc
riod of last year.
On the same date total gold reserves
of the Federal Reserve banks amounted
to $3,559, $50, 900. as compared with 81
1888 900 on the same day of last
year. This would indicate that our
gold strength or gold coverage
for all currency has increased almost a
billion dollars in the last year. The
above figures carry considerable feas-
surances to advocates of sound money,
indicating that whatever the policies of
the administration may be as to infla-
ton of wages and commodity prices,
they are so far conservative in MAIN
tanning an uninflated currency.
