IF WE ARE to have wider
governmental control over the
distribution of wealth and jobs,
as seems probable. we would
still be in a serious economic
corner under the present ratio
of distribution. For in none of
the governmental agencies, city
state or national, do we share
job and job alike with other ra-
cial groups.
At least we must ask and ask
earnestly that the new President
take every vestige of racial dis
elimination out of all the func-
tions of government. On this
the leaders must not compro-
mise.

THE FACT is that this world
economy is shifting so definitely
towards a state where there will
be a wider distribution of the
benefits of work and achieve
ment that the group can well
train its guns on color line dis
elimination alone. Some there
be who tell us we can attain the
opportunities we need without
concentrating on Jim Crowism
and racial segregation. But I'M
til white and colored people can
work, eat, play, and think to-
gether. we will die faster, have
higher crime rates, and less cui-
tural advantages.

Sharlie didn't answer for a

scarcely spoken to him since
the night she had found out
that he had told Edna about

had told him what she thought
of him at that time and had
let him alone ever since.

She "Bawled Him Out"
Dear Miss Fairfax:
have been going with a boy
steadily for about two months,
but have known him for over
two years. He formerly went
with another girl, but now
claims he is in love with me.
About a week ago I saw him
with this other girl and I got
very jealous and "bawled him
out" He said he never took
such a bawling out from any
woman, and that his affection
for me has grown less as the
result of it. I told him I was
sorry for what I said, but he
hasn't treated me the same
since. REGRETFUL.
Perhaps everyone has had
the temptation to do a little
"bawling out" at least once in
a lifetime. But wise people
refrain from giving away to the
temptation, because what's been
said can't be unsaid. Better
be friendly and not refer to the
unfortunate Incl d mt again.
Trust to time to work it's Gus
tomary magic in healing things.

two, coming to you for some
advice. I have been going for
some time with a young lady,
19 years old aod she is very
anxious we should be married.
Personally, I'd like to grant her
wish, if I were only a little
better fixed. But as it is. I lost
my father about six months
ago, which leaves me with sew
eral dependents at home. At
present I average only about
SIT per week. And the girl
averages between SIS and $40
weekly. I have talked the
whole thing out with her, but
she doesn't seem to understand
we can't live on that, with my
responsibilities. 7 told her as
soon as I saw my way clear,
I'd gladly marry her-W. F. P.
You are very wise not to
undertake the responsibilities of
marriage on such a small in
come, especially as you have
dependents at home. AS your
ages are only nineteen and
twenty-five. you can both afford
to wait till the tide turns, and
prospects brighten. Meantime,

The science Of medicine has
made tremendous advances in
the last two decades, not the
least of which is treatment
with glands.
Administration Of glands diff
fers in principle from the TAX
ing Of drugs, as such. because
gland extracts are not inor-
ganic substances; they are
taken from animals. Further
more, glands should be looked
upon as being quite as essen.
tial to the maintenance OF
health as is food. In fact, sci
entists have learned that a GER
tain balance exists between the
various glands Of the body.
which acts like a system OF
wheels within wheels. If one
gland either oversecretes or
undersecretes, not only is the
balance upset, but other glands
may likewise, because OF this
upset, start to secrete too much
or too little, and thus upset
the smooth working of all the
glands all the more.
That is why each patient
with a gland disorder must
needs be studied as an 1ndivld-
ual. Perhaps only one gland
is not functioning as it should.
It is more than likely, how
ever, that before treatment Is
completed and the symptoms
from which the patient COM
plains have entirely disap-
peared, two or three or more
glands will have demanded at
tention.
Although the Chinese are
supposed to have used gland
extracts centuries ago, these
being taken from dogs, lizards,
toads and spiders, our modern
conception of the Importance
of glands dates from Thomas
Addison who, in 1885, discov-
cred that the disease which
now bears his name is caused
by a destruction of the adrenal
glands.
Nowadays not only are the
adrenals - these, incidentally,
being situated on top Of the
kidneys-considered important
in connection with Addison's
Disease; they are also admin.
istered in certain cases Of low
blood pressure, general weak
ness and in neurotic states.
The thyroid gland, which is
a three-part gland at the base
Of the neck in front, is an
other that may cause consid-
cradle disturbance. When it
secretes too much thyroid the
patient becomes nervous and
highly-strung, perSpires freely
and often has a bulging Of the

The spring evening mode is
interpreted almost entirely in
three types Of fabrics. There are
first, the printed crepes, then
the chiffons, usually in plain
colors, and last but not neces-
sarily least, the crisp materials,
organdie, mousseline de sole,
net, and the like. They are all
utterly charming, and it's i'm
possible to recommend any one
as preferable to others.
Shoulders Covered
Chiffons can attribute most Of
their popularity to the vogue
for full skirted gowns, and
drapey Dodices. Chiffon does
beautifully around the shoulders
and neckline, if you want a
cape or a cowl effect. It also
falls softly and very straight in
a full skirt. Shoulders are coV-
cred on the majority of frocks,
in some way or another, and
soft fabrics lend themselves es-
pecially to the new treatments.
Chiffons are nearly always seen
in pastels or white. Shoulders
are covered by crisp fabrics, too,
but in different ways. They
have ruffles, ruches, frills, and
boa effects, as well as clever
short jackets. They make much
of color contrast, both in fab
RIGS, and as trimming. They are
sometimes old-faShioned looking.
and sometimes very fresh and
modern.
Double Duty Prints
The printed crepeS are usually
rather tailored, as they need no
elaboration other than their
own pattern. They are in large
floral effects, or in rather small,
tailored patterns. You'll even
see checks and stripes used.

whether they are full or slim,

mental and physical sluggish
ness. Deficiency of thyroid in
children may even produce
feeble-mindedn edness.
Other glands besides the
adrenals and thyroid exist. Two
are in the skull; the pituitary
and the pineal. The gonads
are also included in the glands
of internal secretion, while the
pancreas, from which "insulin"
for the treatment of diabetes
is made, is another.
The indiscriminate use Of
glands, especially when not
under the direction Of a ply
sician, is dangerous. The rea-
son for stressing this point Is
because many women take thy
roid extract for purposes of re-
ducing without consulting their
doctors. The effect o. thyroid
upon the heart must always
be watched.
Giving a mixture of glands
-"pluriglandular treatment it
is called-without first discov.
ering by examination of the
patient which glands he Is de-
ficient in, is a method often
resorted to but one that sell
dom succeeds. For gland ther-
apy must be altered from time
to time in order that a total
balance Of all the glands can
be effected. This, incidentally,
often takes months and taxes
the confidence of the patient.
DIR. BiSch's Daily Health Hint
The mind plays a tremen-
dous role in our appetites, as
well as in our digestion. An
ticipating some special dish in
advance helps to start the d.
gestive secretions flowing, and
aids materially in assimilation.
The actual serving Of the food
AS regards arrangement on

flowers and the like-has more
to do with sound digestion
than is generally supposed.

CHAPTER XVII

The flat was more cheerful
that night than it had been
In years. A pleasant spicy
odor of sage and onions greet
ed Sharlie when she opened
the front door, and Dodie was
at work in the kitchen, pour
ing hot cranberry sauce
through a Strainer.
"We're going to have cold
pickup supper" she announced,
pushing her hair up from her
forehead with the Jack Of one
hand. "I've been so busy stuff
ing the turkey and making this
sauce that I haven't had time
to cook anything for us to-
night"
She looked at Sharlie's empty
hands and a questioning look
popped into her blue eyes.
"Where are the things I told
you to bring?"
"I thought Jim Barnum could
take me to the market after
supper for them" Sharlie an
swered quickly. She had learned
not to make excuses to Dodie,
who was always exasperated by
them. IT didn't have any
money, and Edna was too busy
to meet me downtown and lend
me some"
At seven Edna had not come
home, and the family sat down
to baked beans from a can,
sardines from a tin, peaches
from a can, and bread and
butter.
When the meal was over
Sharlie went across the hall to
ask Jim Barnum to drive her
to the market. His mother
came to the door, her glasses
pushed high on her head and
the evening paper in her hand.
Beyond her, in the little
hall, Sharlie could see Jim. He
was standing before a long
mirror, folding a white silk
muffler around his neck, and
he was in evening clothes.
He turned quickly at the
sound Of her voice and smiled
at her She never had seen
him in evening clothes before,
and it was almost like looking
at a stranger. For the first
time since she had known him
it struck her that Jim was
genuinely handsome in a quiet
sort Of way.
Hello, Sharlie," he said,
picking up his overcoat from a
chair beside him.
Hello. What are you all
dressed up for?"
