six, don't you think? So few people
own six Sandwich glass plates.-Ah
I think you're very wise, madam !.
Thank you!"
She deserted the querulous woman
and came quickly to him.
"Geoff Ensloe, what are you doing
here?"

serenely.

needed here"
"You never were more mistaken in
your life! Don't bother me, Cynthia.
I'm busy. Got to sell that fat woman
a couple of paper knives and a cal
endar."
Dinner time came and went and no
one dared to leave for the meal. Last
minute customers dashed in and out
in breathless haste. One frantic man
had long list and confessed that he
had forgotten all about his shopping
until this minute.
"Anything-giv me anythingl" he
begged Cynthia. Heres list of
their names-sister, nieces, nephews-

across the little table. "Im looking

"Have you, Geoff? Well. I have
one for you, too. A nice one"

He hesitated then said swiftly: "Cyn-

"We haven't quarreled since Ben

The words thrilled Geoff.. The little

He felt humble. this young man who
was learning for the first time what
love meant. He had thought he knew
when Cynthia came home from the
hospital, but now he realized with
touch of awe that to love and be loved
by Cynthia Aylesbury would be an ex-
perience so different from the super
fetal, ephemeral emotion which went
by the name of love with most Of his
generation that it would set man
apart from his kind. With this
knowledge came depression. His self

work in stock. The same experience
was repeated with Lois Weber, the d.

of me. 1t was bad too.
Shortly after this, my stock engage

Three stage roles in New York-two

me just about where had started, ex.

been failure and was at loss what

CHILD
THEME OF TALK
GIVEN FRIDAY

Small audiences were out to hear
Mrs. Lillian B. Hill, chief of the
bureau of mental hygiene, state de-
partment of education. last even
ing. AT the dinner held at the CAL
ifornia hotel Mrs. Hill explained
the problem of the wandering boy.
Between $4,000 and $4,000 boys are
wandering about in the state of
California alone. The unhappinesS
resulting from the present econo-
mic condition causes many boys 10
leave home and later become juv-
emile delinquents, said Mrs. Hill.
At the evening meeting at the
Wilson school. Mrs. Hill explained
THAT economic conditions caused
many problems for our children to
face. Changing conditions call for
need for mental health. The sim
pie principles of mental hygiene as
given by DR.. Burnham are. the
conception of Wilderness, the whole
child must be considered in its re-
lation to the situation; the concep-
ton as that of the task, there
should be happiness in doing task
which has meaning to the child;
creation in the child Of an objec-
tive attitude an attitude of persis-
tence, a child should have the abil-
ity to do the same thing over and
over again.
According to Mrs. Hill, the var
ious types of problem children are:
the bright child who often gets lit
tie or no personal attention; the
physically handicapped child who
often gets little or no personal at
tention; the physically handicap
ped child who needs understand
ing. medical or physical attention,
special education, but not SYM
pathy; backward children who
should be trained to make use OF
what ability they have; behavior
problem children whose faulty be-
havior may be caused by heredity,
environment and faulty technique
in the management Of personality,
and children who fail in school.
Causes for failure may lie in the
curriculum, methods of testing, at
mosphere of the school, personal
ity of the teachers or handicaps of
the children.
Mrs. Hill was a visitor today in
FL Centre. being shown points of
interest by Roger M. V. Walton Of
the county superintendent Of
schools office and Mrs. Margaret

STYLE CHATS
With ALMA ARCHER

Quite without rancor or venom,
the uptown shops are urging sheer
organza as the newest note for wal
lets. OF all things. This sounds
like an idea that might have been
dictated but not read. Perhaps
women are not expected to carry
much heavy silver in their purses
this season. Or perhaps they have
not much to carry, which ought to
make this an ideal organza year.
As a matter of fact, the ruffled
bags are sufficiently sturdy for or
binary dinner or afternoon respon-
sibilities and are rare relief to many
of the tough-hide purses which
have been so overdone. And if YOU
haven't infant control to consider,
you might succumb to the prevail
ing fabric weakness, and match the
bag with corded organza gloves.
For real catapulting, add the or
ganza scarf. That makes the only
thing missing, poncho and horse.

Christian Science

A lesson on Adam and
Fallen Man" will be delivered on
Sunday in all Churches nf Christ,
Scientist. branches of The Mother
Church, The First Church OF Christ,
Scientist, in Boston.
one OF the Bible citations in the
lesson-sermon includes these state
ments from Genesis. And God
said, Let us make man in our
image, after our likeness: and let
them have dominion over the fish
of the sea, and over the fowl Of
the air, and over the cattle. and
over all the earth, and over every
creeping thing that creepeJh upon
the earth. So God created man
in his own image, in the image Of
God created he him; male and fe-
male created he them And
God saw every thing that he had
made, and, behold, it was very
good Thus the heavens and
the earth were finished and all
the host of them"
A correlative passage from the
Christian Science textbook, Sci
ence and Health with Key to the
Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy,
says: THE Scriptures inform us
that man is made in the image
and likeness of God. Matter is not
that likeness. The likeness Of
Spirit cannot be so unlike Spirit.
