modern sheer fabrics are not
filmy, sleezy, or hard to make
up or keep looking we'll. They
are firm though cool, and they
always present a flat, neat ap-
pearance. They are particu-
larly suited to street clothes,
one-piece dresses to wear under
a coat, or jacket frocks that are
good on the street with their
jacket, and are slightly formal
without it. If you want a more

the neck. AS puberty ap-
proaches, however, the thymus
becomes smaller and smaller
until, at the age of about IL or
13, it practically disappears.
The reason for this remark
able diminution is supposed to
be the fact that thymus secre.
ton holds back precious sex de.
velopment for which the body
and mind, as a whole, are not
yet ready. And it has been
found that persons in whom the
thymus does not grow smaller
are given to crimes Of violence,
even to murder.
Wayward children are often
merely cases Of gland upset.
Adjust the glands-get them
working in harmony again, so
to speak-and the child's dis
position changes as If by
magic. Often a seemingly hope
less delinquent ,youngSter,
whether male or female, can be
made over completely by feed
ing him or her certain gland
extracts, in powder form, and

The problem of gland admin
istration in relation to crin1i'
nality naturally is one for the
physician, particularly for the
man who has specialized in
nervous disorders. Sometimes
deciding on the treatment
that is, discovering which
gland or glands are malfunc-
tioning and which gland ex-
tracts the patient should have
is simple, and sometimes it
is most puzZling. In any case
several months of gland medica-
ton are required before the
system can be made to func-
ton normally.
To be sure, the earlier in life
gland therapy is begun the
better. Therefore whenever

seems to be growing definitely

had better be consulted.

1t is not a new idea that GER
tain persons are defective in
mind and hence cannot really
help being criminals. 1t is a
novel concept, however, that
criminality may be caused by
disturbances in what are now
designated as the glands of in
ternal secretion"
These glands Of internal Sc
cretion are also known as "duct-
less" glands for the reason that,
unlike other glands of the
body-the salivary, for example
they have no ducts via which
their Secretions are poured into
the blood, but rather the lymph
stream, which is similar to
blood and connected with the
blood circulation, passes through
the gland structures and takes
from them their powerful chem
ical substances.
The evidence that oversecre-
ton or undersecretion of one or
more glands produces antisocial
behavior is not always conclu.
sive; but extensive research
work is being conducted along
these lines, and the further the
work progresses the more con-
vincing does the theory become.
Many individuals with criminal
tendencies have been found to
be suffering from gland unbal-
ance, and when this was cor
rected it brought about reform
in their behavior.
Among the important duct
less glands may be mentioned
the thyroid, pituitary, pineal,
the adrenals, the gonads and the
thymus.
The thymus is especially in
teresting in this connection. At
birth it is very large, extending,
within the chest, from the base

with hand drawn work for its
only trimming. The sleeves of
the dress are cape-like, and are
especially good for a larger
figure because they are only
over the arms, and leave the
front and back straight. The
jacket has the same cape
sleeves. This dress, comes in
powder blue, navy or gray, and
Is priced $15.75.
The other dress is in misses
sizes, is the same price, and
comes in the same colors. The
jacket is slightly fitted, and has
puffed sleeve that may be worn
up or down. The, dress has
white lace sleeves and flower,
so that it will do for dinner
and informal evening wear with
out the jacket.

Contract
Bridge
BY E. v. SHEPARD
A Frequent Inquiry

Questions concerning proba-
bilities are always being asked.
There may be a considerable
period when certain questions
of distributions or methods of
play predominant, then, with
out apparent reason, a par
ticular question may come from
numerous players, scattered all
over the country.
Just at present rather SIM
pie question is asked more often
than any other. The question
is: "If declarer holds Ace and
three small cards, and dummy
has XII and two small cards,
with the @, 10 and 9 missing,
how should the declarer play
that suit to win all four tricks
most often?"
There are five ways in which
the @ may be held at the de-
clarer's left: Q-X-X-XX, ok
x, Q-X-X, OK, Q. There are, of
course, five similar ways in
which the @ may be held at de-
clarer'S right.
Obviously it will be impossible
for the declarer not to lose at
least one trick, with the @ at
his left, in case the adverse
holding happens to be either
Q-X-X,X-X, QX-X-X or @, be-
cause the 10 and 9 are missing
from the declarer's cards. The
only divisions affording the de-
clarer an opportunity to win all
four tricks in that suit are
when the five adverse cards are
divided 80. This must average
to happen 68 times in 100.
Out of every 13 times that
the adverse division of the 5
cards is 80, the Q-X-X will be
held 8 times and OK will be
held only 4 times. To catch
the Q-X-X the declarer leads
his Ace. then in case the @
does not appear on the second
lead he must finesse dummy's
J. In case the @ originally was
held Q-X-X, he must win all
four tricks in his suit. If the
@ appears on the second lead
Of course dummy's K will win
the trick, and the j must win
the third trick, pulling down
the last card missing from the
suit.
BY laying down both Ace and
K the declarer would win four
times, by capturing the OK at
his right, but he would lose 9
times because the Q-X-X was at
his left, so he always must
calculate upon finessing the
j on the second lead Of the
suit, provided the @ does not
appear upon either the first or
second lead. This method of
playing the cards of declarer
and dummy will average to
give the declaring side four
tricks in the suit "a times in
100 occasions.

be taught to all classes. Teaching OF
preaching safety, however, is not
enough If the only thing a child gets
out of safety education i sa bundle
out of safety education is bundle
of facts he can recite to the teacher
taught him a thing. He must "do'
what he is being taught-he must dc
what people preach to him. A famous
author once said II have quit trying
to be good, but I have not quit trying
to do good"
That is the thought. Cultivate safe
habits in the children through safety
education. Safety education must, of
course, be based on intelligence and
facts and ideals, but it must have
coupled with that desirable and safe
habits.
Safety education is conception of
life or a state of mind. 1t must, how
ever, at the same time create machine
or thought for building efficient and
safe conduct.

No Free Drivers
Licenses Issued NOlU.

No free drivers licenses will be
issued by the Highway department at
least until January 1, according to an
announcement sent j. P. johnson, clerk
of district court.
The drivers license law, which goes
into effect March l, 1884, provides that
when the head of a family obtains a
license, and pays the regular fee, MEM
bers of his household may be issued"
licenses without additional fees. How
ever, owing 10 a shortage of working
funds, the Highway department has
adopted a policy of issuing only paid
licenses at least during November and
December.
During the past week the drivers
license division of the Highway depart
ment began sending out application
blanks to clerks of court in all counties,
says a department bulletin. Blanks
should be in the hands of every district
court clerk by November 10, the bulletin
announced. Residents of each county
are expected to obtain their application
blanks from their court clerk. The cost
will be 35 cents.

A story is told of medieval village
that decided to hold a great feast. To
insure its success, huge cask was
built into which each participant
agreed to pour a bottle of wine.
"If I fill my bottle with water,
Soliloquized one, land empty it into the
barrel with the others, surely it won't
be noticed"
The big day arrived, as days in
evitably do, and with all the villagers
assembled the great cask was tapped
And 10! only water flowed forth. Each
of the villagers also had reasoned, MY
bit will not be missed"
Community feaStS have gone out of
style, but not the moral of this tale.

paper further makes the asser-
