Innovations in Latest Towels
BY LYDIA LIE BARON WALKER.

fringe Is either beaten straight ano
even by fecking 1t against the edge OF
the ironing board before the towel itself
is pressed or by combing out the fringe
when the towel is laid on the board. A
coarse comb Is required and gentle
combing, so that threads do not tear or
pull away. Well laundered knotted
fringed towels make a handsome array
on a towel rack, and the shorter, well
laundered fringed towels are similarly
pleasing.
Plaid towels are bizarre when colors
are strong and plaids pronounced. Or
they can be beautifully soft in tones as
well as texture when colOrS in pastel
shades are combined in the plaids. One
advantage of these towels is that they
do not show every mark and crease as
plainly as do the fiat colored textiles.
One of the interesting varieties in the
new towels combines differences of
weaves with colors. For example a
herrlngbone weave may be used fof the
body of the towel. while the border in
contrasting color is in plain weave.

WHO ARE YOU?
The Romance of Your Name
BY RUBY HASKINS ELLIS.

IL sons, all leaders Of various clans,
septs and tribes, and as surnames were
not introduced until the eleventh CEN
tury, they did not all answer to the
same cognomen.
When England was determined to
conquer the Emerald Isle, many a Neale
turned out to fight for home and coun-
try. Rather than bow to the yoke Of
religious and political oppression, they
were forced to flee into other countries
and the family disintegrated. We hear
OF them in England, Spain, France,
Italy and many Of them have held posi-
tions OF high Importance.
The present representative Of the
family in Ireland is Edward ONeiIl of
Shanes Castle, County Antrim, who
succeeded his father as second baron
in 1888.
This family in America was founded
by five brothers, descendants of the
earls of ireland. who disagreed on re-
ligion and politics in their mother coun-
try. One OF them retained the 20" in
the name, while the others dropped It.
Thus 1t is thought that the Neale fam
lily of Massachusetts, New Hampshire,
Maryland, North Carolina and Virginia
springs from the same family.
Virginia Neales who use the coat Of
arms shown are descended from Lieut.
Daniel. an Irish Protestant, who was
In Northumberland County In 1859.
Neales, Neils and O'Neills are now
living in every State in this country.
The characteristics of industry, deter
mination and faithfulness to duty mark
them wherever they are found.

Cold Weather and Diet.

"HE advent of cold weather in
spires many unhappy skin con-
ditions definitely elated to diet
L temperatures or clothing. II
the mother is aware of them
she can arm herself to deal intelligent
ly with them.
Some children are sensitive to fats,
with which the diet is apt to be over
loaded in cold weather. Rich milkS,
large doses of cod liver oil, bacon or
other meat fats, butter and salad oils
are all possible contributors to an over
1y rich diet of fats. The child who has
a wide tolerance for fats may not be
disturbed by them. The child who ex-
an unusual number of blackheads or a
series of boils may be indicating his
inability to cope with this digestive
burden.
When these facial eruptions appear,
cut down on the amount of butter,
cream and cod liver oil and notice If
there is a cessation of the symptoms.
Often complete removal of fats from
the diet for few Gays will help. Re-
turn to them very gradually and cau-
tiously. such fats as butter and cream
and cod liver oil are invaluable in the
diet, and for that very reason should
not be over-represented so as to cripple
the child's ability to tolerate them.
Wool is common skin irritant In
Winter weather. The child who breaks
out in areas touched by wool may have
some sensitivity to this element. He
would be more comfortable and less
trritated in all-cotton clothing.
Not only woolen garments but cold
winds work a real hardship on the
child with a delicate skin, The change
from a warm room to rough, cold
wind is enough to deprive these soft
skins of their velvety smoothness and
render them rough and burning red.
There Is another type Of rough, dry
skin often suffered by children In cold
weather that Is described by their
mother as goose pimply." This may
be the result of harsh soaps, cold water,

Uncommon Sense
Struggle.
BY JOHN BLAKE.
BY FANNY Z. CORY
BY JOHN BLAKE.

"A 4 EN- must fight. They always
M will fight. If they had not
IVl fought this would be much the
i same kind of world as 1t was
when the cavemen beat each
other over the heads with stone axes
and the man with the strongest arms
and the biggest muscles won.
As the race has progressed 1t has dis
covered that the old-fashioned way Of
fighting did not do very much good.
The stone axes were replaced by spears
of brass and iron, then OF steel. The
invention of gunpowder made the bat
ties briefer and more convincing. In
the late war great deal of the fighting
was done by machinery.
If men have not acquired enough in
telligence not to fight and If there Is
another war it all will be done by ma
chinery-by pressing buttons hundreds
of miles behind the battle lines, which
operation will send machines against
each other as battalions are sent today.
The world has grown by struggle, and
1t will continue to grow by struggle;
but the time will come when it will be
a struggle of intelligence against the
forces of nature instead of a struggle
between nations.
Meanwhile. we must all put forth a
few struggles ourselves, and many Of
these will be struggles against our
selves. The Bible tells us that he who
ruleth his own spirit is greater than he
who taketh a city. That is what We
must learn-to rule ourselves.
That cannot be done without fight
ing, and by fighting with our own
worst enemies, who are ourselves.
If every man could conquer his own
nature, and set out bravely to do it,
there would soon be an end to the en-
mites and hatreds, which, multiplied
many times, finally send armies into
the field to battle with other armies
composed of men who well might be
their friends If they had met some
other place than on the battlefield.

My Neighbor Says:

Have plenty of waxed paper on
hand to use for wrapping lunches
to be carried by the school chill
dren. This will keep the lunches
fresh and palatable.
When making a layer cake,
with a soft filling between the
layers, put on a thin icing of
confectionery sugar and let it
harden before spreading on the
filling. The cake does not then
become soggy.
A small pad Of tissue paper will
give brilliant polish to mirrors,
picture glasses and crystal.
To remove a water mark on
waxed floors, rub the spot with a
cloth dipped in turpentine, cover
with a little wax, then polish.
Colored handkerchiefs should
be soaked for 10 minutes in
basin Of cold water to which a
tablespoonful of turpentIne has
been added before they are
washed the first time. This will
set the colors.
Apples will not break when
baking If pricked with a fork be-

that to werk for the State will hence

me? he said.
Sir? Yes sir. I said, and pop said,
At your age your home is the State as
far as you are concerned, and your
mother is the Queen Bee and am the
King Ant. and when, as at present. you
are privileged to go an errand for
either of us, that privilege should MI
you with exultation at chance to
labor for the common good rather than
with a base and self centered desire
for self advancement. So how do you
feel now? he said.

Senator heQQrlCk.
OMahoney was Farley's first choice
for a place on his official stan Wnen
he became Postmaster General. Exper-
fenced in the game of politics, OMa-
honey was lust the man Farley wanted
at his side when he began distributing
the rewards and prizes Of the great
Democratic victory to the faithful.
Joe O'Mahoney was schooled from
the start in practical politics. Al
though born in Massachusetts,. he went
West as a young man, and absorbed
the political thought and philosophy
of that section. He enlisted under the
Theodore Roosevelt banner in 1912. but
returned to the Democratic fold In
1916 and supported Woodrow Wilson
for President Since then he has been
one of the stalwarts of Democracy.
He has taken an active part in the
MANAGEMENT of Democratic campaigns
in Wyoming for the last Is years. He
directed the affairs of the wyoming
State Committee in 1924, when Mrs.
Nellie Tayloe Ross was elected Gov-
ernor.
In 1928 he was elected Democratic
national committeeman for Wyoming
and In 1882 was appointed vice chair
man Of the National Committee.
It was at the Democratic convention
in Chicago last year that OMahoney's
political stature loomed big on the ma
tional scene. He was member OF the
subcommittee of the Resolutions Com
mittee, which helped draft the short
platform on which President Roosevelt
was elected.
In the campaign, Farley leaned on
him heavily as his chief lieutenant in
the West. When the Democratic VIC
tory came, Farley brought him to
Washington as one Of his chief ad-
visers on patronage.
OMahoney is 40. A student of his
tory and the science Of Government,
he has a faculty for remembering de-
tails.
Curiously enough, he takes in the
Senate the place of the man for whom
he once worked as secretary.

THERE is an interesting legend
connected with this name which
tells the story of the red hand
L appearing in the coat of arms
here shown. A daring explorer
named O'Neill, with some of his kins-
men and followers, was crossing from
Scotland to Ireland in search of new
homes. 1t had been offered that who-
ever was the first to touch shore would
be granted the privilege of calling the
new country by his name. When O'Neill
saw that he was about to lose this
honor he severed his hand from his
body and flung it ashore. So it is that
the red hand appearing on the coat Of
arms is called 'lamh dearg Erin" the
Red Hand of Erin, and the ONeills
were the first lords of Ulster.
