Clarence Newton. Mr.. Pickering
and Howard Nolan accompanied the
boys. The boys first attended a
group meeting on small fruits held
by j. S. Shoemaker. Pruning and
propagation of grapes was his first
topic. Mr.. Shoemaker said the two
main objects in pruning was to in
crease the vigor and fruiting quail
ties of the vine. On his talk about
raspberries, he made it clear that
there is profit and pleasure in pro-
ducing these small fruits, if we
build up productive soil and prop
erly care for the planting. Mr.. Nc
Kellip talked to them about getting
profit and satisfaction from their
dairy herds at home. The boys felt
as if they were personally acquaint-
ed with Mr.. McKellip, as they had
just watched him judge cattle at
Morgan county fair. According to
Mr. McKellip, each dairy cow must
give at least 800 pounds of butter
fat per year to pay us soc per hour
for the time we spend caring for
her. Southeast Ohio should SO ar

COW can have full and plenty of
good grass for seven months out of
the year; thereby saving lots of la

labor. Southeast Ohio has one or

Why Get Up Nights?
Make This 25c Test

Physic the bladder as you would
the bowels. Drive out impurities
and excessive acids that cause irri-
tation burning and frequent desire.
Get a 25c test box of BU-KETS, the
bladder physic, from any drug store.
After four days if you are not re-
leved of getti gnup nights go back
and get your money. BU-KETS,
containing buchu leaves, juniper oil,
ETC.. acts pleasantly and effectively
on the bladder similar to castor oil
on the bowels. If you are bothered
with backache, or leg pains caused
from bladder disorders you are
bound to feel better after this
cleansing and you get your regular
sleep.-"Stanbery Pharmacy says

How many times have you
admired either secretly or
openly the snowy white appear
ance of someone's back, neck,
and arms in an evening frock.
Satin SmOOthneSs
With all things feminine now
the rage, from coiffures to the
smallest details of fashion, it
is more important than ever
that every woman should
possess a satiny skin.
The skin of the body, con-
stantly protected by clothing,
has a better chance to thrive
under a little care than does
the skin of the face.
1t isn't exposed to the
ravages of the weather, nor
does it become so easily the
mark for dust and dirt. 1t is
apt in the bargain, to be finer
in texture than facial skin.
Therefore, the problems Of
treating it is fairly simple.
But soap and water, and a
scrubbing brush are, alas, I'M
able to do the trick unassisted.
Occasionally, about twice a
week, there should be a thor
ough cleansing of the pores Of
the skin to enable it to take on
that velvety appearance.
Bath Nit
How to accomplish this! We
have discovered just the thing,
put up by one of the coun-
try'S foremost beauticians.
This is what is called a bath
nit, a small piece of turkish
toweling, which fits easily into
the palm of the hand, and is
packed with the most fragrant
and delicate soap combined
with almond meal which forms
a combination hard to beat
when it comes to cleansing the
skin.
These bath mits are designed
especially for use in the shower.
If you scrub yourself with one,
presto, the most marvellous
lather Imaginable forms, and
the beauty of the mits is that
they will make a lather in any
kind of water-hot, cold. hard,
soft-or, if you please, in salt
water.
Moisture Proof
This makes them marvellous
travelling companions. For if
you ever go to Bermuda, or other
ports, where the water for bath
ing is salt, you are all set. You
will not have to face the dis
comfort, and that uncleansed

baby but to the woman who has
gone through the ordeal, the
situation isn't funny.
It is, she suddenly sees, all
very we'll to laugh when it is
some one else's baby but when
it is her own she fails to see
the humor.
Nor is it funny. Child health
has never been so important.
It is the foundation of adult
health.
The child who has received
proper care in the first six
years of it's life is better fitted
to cope with future health prob
lens. A strong body helps to
build a strong mind. And the
man and woman of the future
will need both.

The advent Of the SemltormaI
type of frock has changed all
that, however. We can now
wear a dinner gown With
sleeves, wear a hat, and we
are sure to be correct, never
overdressed at any good restau-
rant.
If the occasion should de-
velop into something more for
NAL later, you can remove your
hat, and be correct again.
Backs Cut Low
The fact that many of these
new long-Sleeved dinner gowns
are cut low in the back, doesn't
detract from their serviceability
in the least.
We go right on wearing them
to dinner, the theater, and for
the cocktail hour if they're
not too dressed-up.
Practically all of them have
sleeves of some sort, and that
seems enough to allow them
to appear on the street after
dark.

a splendid suggestion for what

so we fastened to show the

1t is cut semilow in the back,
and has all the grace in the
world, especially as it has a
little train which somehow
manages not to show in the

BY SALLY BLAME

Here is a frock that I brought
back from Europe a. few weeks
ago.
It's not so pretentious, but
then I definitely don't like pre-
tentious clothes.
I think the whole trend of
fashion, from the time I was a
little girl, has been toward
more and more simplicity. One
of these days we girls probably
will all be wearing the equiva-
lent of Roman togas.
The gown itself it just a gray
crinkled crepe ensemble.
Those fur epaulets of cross
fox fool the men sometimes.
They think I'm wearing a long
fur boa.
I really bought the gown be-
cause I liked the lovely simple
neck with the BIASED tie. I
thought they contrasted so
charmingly with the rich fur
trim.
The sleeves also had an inter
esting tucked treatment which
appealed to me.
There's nothing much I can
say about the hat except that it
is draped with veil which has
the most tremendous mesh I
have ever worn. They call 1t
"fisherman's net" in London.
didn't buy many gowns
abroad, although I certainly did
plenty of window shopping in
both London and Paris.
The Paris department. stores
seemed to be a few steps behind
the big London establishments
and both Paris and London
offer styles which, to me, are
not so appealing as those OF
New York and Hollywood orr
gin. But. then, maybe I'm
prejudiced, being strictly Amerl-
can in my tastes.

NEW YORK, Nov. 20.-No,
this has nothing to do with the
correct comeback when the wom-
an ahead of you in the Pull
man Mushroom swipes the last
towel off the rack, leaving you
with soapsuds in your eyes and
murder in your soul-nor does
it give you the Emily Post pro-
cedure when the train lurches
and deposits a portly dowager
in your lap.
No. this is all about the trains
to be found on evening skirts,
instead of railroad stations, this
season - that lovely, luxurious
fashion that is being practically
ruined by the way in which it
is managed-or mismanaged.
We've seen skirt trains so man.

Advice
I O
Love|orn
By Beatrice Fairfax
"And Some Parents Wonder
Why Their Children Go
Wrong"

"And Some Parents Wonder
Why Their Children Go
Wrong"
Dear Miss Fairfax:
My father is very strict; he
never lets me go anywhere. I've
lost all my girl '"iends for this
reason, because they don't want
to bother with anyone who can't
ever go out. I have been gradu-
ated from high school and have
a part-time job. I used to speak
to certain boys I grew up with,
but my father told me if
didn't stop he'd tear me to
pieces before them" And I'm
almost ID.
This summer I again met a
boy and we renewed an old
friendship. He told me he loves
me, and ! love him dearly. I've
told my mother all about him,
but she can't help me any,
though she'd like to. Every
time I think about him / cry.
He is too honorable to let me
sneak out to meet him, and I
think too much Of my reputa-
ton besides. And some parents
wonder why their children go
wrong. I'm writing to you be-
cause your answers are fair, and
you never gush. Shall BE hoping
to hear.
ELAINE.
Thanks for your kind ap-
probation, my dear Elaine.
And let me say that, though
evidently well meant, nothing
to my way of thinking could be
more mistaken than the "strict-
ness" you describe. Isn't there
someone close at hand who
could reason with your father
about this morbid attitude? II
there is, enlist his or her kind
offices without loss of time.
OCherWlSe, I'm afraid there is
no other course than to wait
until you have a full time job
and your eighteenth birthday
has come around, and then
have a temperate showdown
with your father himself This
you will not be able to do as
long as you are a partial de-
pendent and are under legal
age in your state.
Parents flying in the face
of human nature in this NOR
bid fashion furnish an ample
answer to your question of why
some children go wrong.

gled and mutilated at various
formal affairs about town that
we feel something should really
be done about it, before this TO-
mantle fashion is utterly tram
pied to death. So here are
few simple dos and don'tS for
keeping your own particular
train on the right track
DOn'tS
Don't seize a fistful Of skirt
material somewhere around the
knees and hitch it up around
your hips under the mistaken
impression that you are
Beatrice Lille.
Don't clutch your skirt
madly in back and drag it
around to the side-giving your
self a Grecian bend effect in
back that outdoes Mae Vests
famous curves.
Don't lift your train high and
leave it suspended somewhere
in midair between your dancing
partners shoulders and the
floor-thus affording a perfect
view of satin slips. silken knees
and beribboned garters. We
saw this very thing done by not
a few fashionables should
have known better-at the
Victory Ball at the Waldorf
Astoria.
Do, when you're walking down
a theater aisle or ballroom stair
case, nip in your skirt train
neatly with the middle finger
only-not with the whole hand!
According to the best au-
thorities, this is the correct and
charming manner of managing
a skirt train. Try it yourself
n front of a mirror some time
and see how much more
graceful it is than the death
grip ome women get on their
skirt trains. Besides, it's easier
on he eyes of the long-susfer-
ing tag line!
Do, when you're dancing, lift
your train over your finger
with the little loop provided
for the purpose by every we'll
trained skirt. leaving your hand
free to rest lightly on your
partners palm. It's really much
more charming than the fist
full of skirt" effect so many
women have while dancing.
And do-for the sake of the
blushing bystanders - get a
train that's long enough for
the various occasions on which
it's worn!
IF it's to be a dance srock,
have it decently long enough
to loop over your hand with
out giving burlesque effect.
# it's a restaurant o. theater
gown, have it short enough to
clear the floor when it's lifted
without forming entangling
alliances with table legs and
chairs.

When Manners
Are Correct
BY MRS. CORNELIUS
REECKMAN
A Gift for the Bride


Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
1 am giving a bridge party in
honor of a friend who is going
to be married in about two
months. Is it necessary to pre-
sent the girl with a gift at the
party? I want to give it to her
a few days before the wedding.
There has been an argument
about this. Some girls told me
that I have to present this girl
with a gift at the party that I
am giving for her. I believe
that is not necessary. R.
agree with you it is not at
all necessary for you to give this
girl a present at the time of the
party. If you prefer to wait,
and to give your wedding gift
at the appropriate time, this is
correct.

Household Hints

Room StuffineSS
Room stuffiness in winter
can be avoided by placing a
small tin of water on the
radiator or stove.
Greasy Dishes
A few drops of ammonia in
the dishwater will prove help
full in cleaning greasy dishes.
Interior Finish
All kinds of stain should be
given a final coat of varnish.
Some interior paints will also
take a coat of varnish and
will wear longer.

The Rhymins
Optimist
By ALINE MICHAELS
The Inmate

The Inmate
The house was but a poor and
empty place,
With walls that tottered bleak
ly to decay
And scarce a memory of it's
one-time grace.
Its fair facade had crumbled,
fallen away
And few were left who had
one thought, one care
For aught that dwelt within it's
portals gray.
But once I CHANGED to glimpse,
in passing there
A light that burned, half hid
den. far within,
Which cast a CLEAN of splendor
on the air.
And once I heard, above the
highways din,
A voice of music, sweet and
very clear,
And to my dreams loved
voices strangely kin.
And since that hour I often
linger near
To view. unseen, the dweller in
that place
Whom none have guessed the
dWeller wise and dear.
The house was but a poor and
empty place
Until I learned the inmates
lofty grace.
