A DAY IN THE LIFE ON ONE
 YEAR OLD JOHN

Since John Johnson is now just over a year old his baby schedule has been considerably modified, though he still leads a very orderly life. Mrs Johnson knows how im- portant it is for a young child to learn good habits from babyhood. She also knows that the only way to teach them is to have q regular daily routine. Her chief difficulty Is to order Johns day so that it sat isfies his requirements and yet does not upset the plans of the rest of the family. And since, to my mind, she has solved the difficulty with her usual good sense, 1 have per- suaded her to write down her out line insofar as it concerns John. Here it is:
 John wakes at six every morn ing, rain or shine. His mother takes him to the toilet, then wash es his face and hands, washes his teeth, gives him a cup of milk, and pops him back in his crib to sleep or play by himself.
 Between eight and eight thirty, when the others have gone off to school or work, John has his daily bath. By nine o'clock he is dressed and having his breakfast, followed by his cod liver oil. Then visit to the toilet for bowel move- ment, followed as a matter of course by hand washing, and then, dressed in his woolly play suit and hat, he goes out into the sunshine if the weather permits. Mrs John son wheels his play pen out on to the front porch, which faces the morning sun, and leaves him to amuse himself while she gets on with her housework.
 At eleven o'clock she brings him to the toilet again, washes his hands, gives him a short sun bath if the weather permits and then tucks him up in his baby carriage on the porch for his daily nap. He sleeps for about two hours, which gives Mrs Johnson a chance to pre- pare and have lunch with the old CT children.
 One o'clock finds John. awake again and ready for his own lunch con. preceded and followed by a visit to the toilet. He spends his afternoon out of doors, if possible -either playing again in his play pen or being taken for an outing by his mother, or sometimes by Mary after school hours.
 Between four and five he has the companionship of his older broth CTS and sisters and by five fifteen. when he is ready to be undressed for the night, his father comes home from business. Quite often his father undresses him while his mother prepares his supper, for MT Johnson believes in getting to know his own children!
 After a good wash John has his supper and by six o'clock after a last visit to the toilet he is in bed

"When she wore her party dress to the hospital?" Jack re- peated slowly, in a puzzled voice. as Sue finished her reference to. Joe Dexter. "Her party dress Oh-h-h! That night she came there looking like a gilded valen- tine for a Christmas tree? She was getting in her work then. you mean? Sue, you - goose! Don you know that she's just so much fluff? She isn't even grown up mentally. And she's been given mean disposition on top of that. "But she knows what she wants and she's out to get it," Sue ex- plained. "She isn't harmless "She sounded harmful" Jak answered, making wry grimace. Well, that young lady's gone. We won't see any more of her" "I hope not.''
 They were talking quietly, about inconsequential things, when tho knoeker fell against the dark green outer door again. It was Corrinne and Harry this time. Something gay and warm ana merry came with Corrinne but Sue, watching her closely, saw that
  and her mouth dropped ever so slightly when it was in repose. "Think you'll get well. Jack?". Corrinne asked. You look like the healthiest invalid I ever saw.
 i've thought it over - guess will. Life seems to be worth living" he answered. "Or haven't you found it that way?"
 Tt has it's points at times, she answered. But the twins have
 pains in their stomachs tonight. This isn't one of the times"
 "They yell" Harry answered. Loud and long. A declaration Of independence. We got out"
 Sue thought quietly that 1t | would be nice to have so much money that you could have trained
 nurses to care for your children and be able to run off from them | when you wanted to. She remen-
 bered the pile of bills that were stacked neatly in a corner of her desk. It seemed to her that she had written checks for ever so many of them more than she could have if it hadn't been that | the house had been closed for 3 few weeks. But the pile grew as- toundingly.

ster,, stepped out of the darkness.
 Hello, Janet" he said.
 "Why, Jeff"
 She hadn't seen him for nearly 6 month. Not since the night he had brought her here and they had had so little to say to each other. Janet thought Jeff was in love with the girl she had seen him with on the street that day. Dolores Callahan. She was sure she wasn't jealous of Dolores but she had missed Jeff and was genuinely glad to see him,
 "Why didn't you let me know you were coming out?" he asked. "I'd have been glad to drive over for you"
 I didn't know I could get away until just before dinner" Janet told him. Mrs Silvani was shak- ing her hand and urging her to come up and sit in one of the chairs on the stoop. It was cooler there than in the house, she eX- 'plained. Janet and Mrs Silvani took the chairs and Jeff and the youngsters sat on the steps. For three quarters of an hour they talked. Then Janet noticed that 1(OSle VOlCe WdS BTOWlHB bicopy' She arose and said it was time to leave.
 And you'll be sure to come again one of these days, won't you?" Mrs Sivani urged.
 "I'll try to-" Janet promised, "but I don't have as much time as l used to. I'd like to come out while it's daylight and see all those stunts in the park Rosie was telling about"
 Her mother laughed. Shell be glad to show you. Rosie thinks there's nobody in the world like Miss Hill."
 Ten minutes later Janet was beside Jeff in the roadster. "Where to?" he asked as they reached the crossroads. How about taking a swing out on the hill road?"
 "I'd love to-" Janet agreed. "Itll be cool and l like to look down on the lights"
 Up on the hill road the air was cooler. The lights of the city spread below them sparkled like a net work of jewels. Jeff stopped the motor and Janet exclaimed, Isn't 1t gorgeous"
 "Yes." he said. 'it is." His hand closed over hers.

GLORlFYlNG
 YOURSELF G}sNBy Alicia Hart n
Oio35e7 NEA SERVICE INc

Are yuor eyes eager for spring adventure these days?
 The clear eyed lady wins, usually That is why 1t pays to take a few minutes off each day to devote to getting your eyes that way.
 First, do you wash your eyes mornings? You should. Use an eye cup and some good eye wash --boracic acid dissolved in hot water and kept in clean bottle will do very nicely.
 Do you squint? Try brimmed hat first. If that doesn't do any good, try an occulist. Don't read in bad light, don't read in sun- light. Don't read - if your eyes hurt. Just let spring take care of your head for the time being and devote yourself to looking your best. Give your eyes 8 rest!
 If you wake up early mornings when the first light of day hits you, make yourself little binder of black goods and put 1t on nights. or put it under your pil- low so you can adjust it mornings. Either cut the goods out, like gog- gles, and put an elastic from end to end to fit over your head. Or just plain bandage will do.
 During the day you should wash out your eyes, too. Keep some lotion in the officer. If work ing over the stove. or the type writer tires your eyes, rinse them out. It has the same fresl1ening effect that dashing cold water has on your face when it has a drawn feeling.
 Little things, these. But they add to your eyes beauty. Try them.

Hair Waves

Paris (UP)-The permanent wave is one thing which has re- sisted the wave of depression here and platinum heads glitter bright CT than gold on the highways and boulevards.
 Let us hope the permanent will be eternal" said a spokesman of the hairdressing trade, flor it is a sign of good luck. Our industry has made profits during the past twelve months 20 per cent over those of the preceding year, and there is no sign of abatement.
 "Frenchwomen in general re- fuse to let their hair grow and they have an apparently deep rooted distaste for leaving 1t a natural color. Along with the per- manent wave, the platinum treat ment has been a tremendous suc- cess."

BEGIN HERE TO-DAY

JANET HILL breaks her on. gagemcnt to ROLF CARLYLE when she learns he has been paying attentions to BETTY KENDALL, wealthy society girl. Janet. 23, is secretary to BRUCE HAMILTON, advertising managcr of Every Home Magazine. She still loves Rolf.
 JEFF GRANT, young engineer, saves her purse from a holdup man and she and Jcff become friends. When she learns Rolf has cloped with Betty she tells JcT about her broken engage mcnt and says she can never care for anyone else.
 Hamilton leaves the magazine and secures a job for Janet as social secretary to his sister, MRS. CURTIS. It is several days before Janet learns Mrs. Curtis is Betty Kendalrs mother.
 ItOlf and Betty return from their honeymoon. Janet feels she should leave but circumstances prevent. The young couple move into their own apartment. Janet has one encounter with Rolf and after that seldom sees him.
 She goes to the Carlyle's apart ment on an errand and there meets VAN HARVESTER, wealthy and socially prominent. He offers to drive her home. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY
 CHAPTER xXXIV
 The door of the elevator slid back just then and both Janet and Van Bannistcr stepped inside. "Well-?" he said, smiling persu- 
 He was very good looking young man. His eyes crinkled at the corners when he smiled and he had an air of easy assurance as though the world always had and always would go exactly as he wanted it. He was hatless and must have spent hours in the sun to acquire such a deep tan.
 Thank you" Janet said hesi- tantly, but 1 think I'll walk"
 Nonsense! Why. the sun is blistering."
 Janet smiled. T don't mind" she said.
 They reached the ground floor and walked through the lobby to the sidewalk. There at the curb was a long slate-colored roadster. Van Bannister turned to the girl.
 "Listen," he said, "I'I bet you're going to Betty's mothers, aren't you? Well, I'm headed that way myself. Now hop in and don't say any more about it."
 Janet found herself seated on the deeply cushioned seat. Ban mister, beside her, started the mo- tor and the car lunged forward.
 What a beautiful roadster!" she said.
 Like it?" he smiled. Well, I like it pretty well myself. Out on a road where there's a chance to tear loose there aren't many that can pass her. Like to see how it's done?"
 Janet said, "Why-yes."
 "F'ine. How about tOnight?"
 She shook her head. II couldn't she said.
 Well then tomorrow?
 "I'm afraid not" Janet told him. "You see Mrs Curtis likes to have me stay with her."
 "You don't mean to say you never have a night off"
 "Oh, sometimes, but never know when it's going to be-"

with the window open, the door shut and no night light. The rest of the evening belongs to the other members of the family.
 This schedule works very well and covers all the important hab- its that John must develop. It pro- vides for about fourteen hours sleep, regular meals, plenty of out door play and sunshine, cleanliness time spent in the company of others and time spent by himself. It also provides for regular visits to the toilet. roughly once every two hours during the day, though l see I have omitted to mention the afternoon occasions.
 John takes his routine as a matter of course and is quite ready for his bath, his meals, and his bed when the appointed time aF- rives. He seldom makes a fuss or cries, for as far as he knows there's nothing to cry about!
 And as for Mrs Johnson, she declares that with a family of five children and no outside help she couldn't possibly find time for ev- erything if 1t were not for her definitely daily plan.

1.-Amazingly so. Edward A.
 Ross, sociologist, University of Wisconsin. has shown that peasant
 women who are compelled to work In the fields are broad-backed. broad-hipped, squat, ugly and strong. Why? Because men who permit their women to become beasts of burden admire that type of women, marry them and rear their daughters like them. The few delicate, dainty, beautiful daughters that are born die from the crushing soil. Very soon this process establishes . race ef square built, homely women. But when change comes in marriage selection this soon shows in the in-
