SEEN BY DR.. z00K
Commissioner Would Con-
tinue Camps as Outlet
for Youths.

Possibility of continuing the Civilian
Conservation Corps camps as perma-

cational system was seen by DR..
George F. Zook, United States COM
missioner of education, in an address
today at the conference of Govern
ment specialists with the Southern
Woman's Educational Alliance at the
MayfOWer Hotel.
The camps. DIR. Zook pointed out.
we're established primarily to with
draw some 100000 young men from
the labor market. He expressed the
fear that the founders of the camp
idea did not think this idea through
to it's conclusion beyond the immedi-
ate problem"
"As a matter of fact" Dr. Zook de-
clared, Ito the majority of the youths
who enrolled in the camps, they rep
resented a realization of their hopes
and desires to get away from home
for a while SO that they could face
what they believed was life IN the
raw The desire to get out on his
own is a perfectly normal desire on
the part of every young man. The
work they we're set at in the camps
certainly was real enough, and, at

DOLL FIGURES GROW PLUMP

k q ii q
 Philadelphia. (UP)-Baby dolls that suck from a nipple and breathe like real. live babies, are new play thrill which Santa. Claus will bring to 1884 Christmas trees. A doll that sleeps only on her right side is another novelty.
 Doll figuhes are bumper. For youngsters who want to initiate mothers task of bathing baby. there are all rubber dolls that will not suffer from complete ablutions. Tiny rubber tbathinettes, nursery scales, basinettes and complete lay cites are featured to provide nurs- cry realism in the play room. Doll carriages are resigned exactly like the best grown-up models, with sunshades,. kicking space and pro- lection against drafts. Educators favor this type of initiative play because 1t trains manipulative skill, stimulates imagination and efficiently prepares for grown-up' tasks.
 Hair is gaining new favor in the doIl world. Long curls and wind blown bobs will be well represent ed this season along with the sleek, lacquered cultures. The fashionable doll in Santa's pack. will be ,outfitted for every social and sporting occasion. She has roller skates, tap dances. skis. and. has lounging pajamas for tea.

Blocker said rather impatiently, I'm not a detective myself. but even deduced as much.'
 Griff smiled.
 You see," he said, "as soon as the police knew that I was keeping Thomas Decker concealed they tried to locate Decker by checking over oil of the hotels and rooming houses, paying particular attention to anyone who had registered on the night of the murder. 1 antici- pated this move on their part. Therefore, put Decker in a place where they would hardly expect to find him, yet where he would be instantly accessible if I should de- sire to consult with him.
 Bleeker's eyes suddenly widened. He opened his mouth to speak, but before he could say a word Griff nodded and said to the man who posed as his valet. Come in, Decker, and sit down. want you to talk with this man."
 The man in livery hesitated for a moment. then took four swift steps. sat down abruptly in chair, said nervously, You've let the cat out of the bag now. Why did you do it?"
 Griff's tone was not unkindly.
 Decker" he said. you told me and you told the police that you couldn't be certain of the identity of the man who drove that gray Cadillac car"

REAL HEALTH EDUCATION

Much that purports to be, health education in our common schools is sheer hooey. How can any one with a rnodicum of common sense imagine a young woman who has arithmetic can take charge of the class in physiology and hygiene if she happens to have a vacant per- iod? That Is the way physiology and hygiene or health is handled in the average elementary or high school.
 In Lansing, boys and girls en- tering sophomore grade in high school attend series of lectures by physicians on sex matters, The lec- lures, illustrated by sketches and lantern slides, cover the problem The boys in, one room, the girls in another, listen to different lec- boys among group of six hun lures. At the first lecture, two dred were shocked and they faint ed. What do you say about that, old pruders? I think 1t was for tunate thing that the two boys tainted. Even if they had nothing to get alarmed about, that was a small price to pay for the boon of such education of hundreds of boys who would otherwise go out into the world smart alecks and suffer far worse than shock as consequence of their ignorance
 One of the teachers in this Lansl ing high school informs me that the results of this fair deal to the pupils or students has been en- couraging: "A gap, which formerly existed between students and teachers and doctors, has been bridged and boys and girls are quite free in their questions and discussions both during and after the lectures"
 The same teacher goes on to ob- serve that in a pamphlet entitled The Problem of Sex Education in Schools" issued by the U. s. Public Health Service, Washington, D. C., in 1919, appears this view: Certainly all teachers are
 not fitted to engage in direct
 sex teaching. This task is for , few teachers only and in a
 few, subjects only. These few
 teachers must meet many re-
 quirements. They must have
 an accurate and scientific
 knowledge of the facts to be But in practice our educators waive all that. They look down upon health education, physical education, sex education as some thing pretty low anyway, and from that attitude they readily comply with the practice of designating any teacher who has the spare time or who will accept the job, to dish out the hoocy which sane

ions on all of them. Of course an educated man grows into very positive convictions in the limited. field he knows about. but he knows where his positiyeness should stop, because he knows where his ignorance begins. The all round ignorant mans ignorance begins anywhere and extends everywhere.
 3.-Dr Charles B. Davenport studied the family histories of 165 wayward girls in state institu- ton. Some of the families were highly intellectual. In one of these he traced violent outbursts of temper for five generations, and in a large number for three gen erations. He concluded that in people whose tempers are de- scribed by friends with such terms as violent" etc, heredity was the principal factor. However, this does not x1ean they could not have been taught to exercise more or less seIf-control.

CHILDREN MUST LEARN TO
 CONTROL TEAfPERS.
3lasl M NEd sElglc9, &

NOxN n AkOA-- Il Ak1XshA AfAA0s
 It Is hard to handle the cranky controlled rages is even a bigger problem than his too-meek broth CT or sister.
 Ash matter of fact he is hap pier in his way than almost any other child living. Rage is a pleas ant sensation. It is classed among the emotions that, give complete satisfaction to the soul.
 This does not include the mor- bid or breeding type. Such 'chil- dren usually have some deep-seat- ed cause for their unhappiness, sometimes simaginary but often real.
 The quick-tempered child is diff ferent. His nerves explode in one grand smash and then it's all over until the next time. He forgets about 1t and the sun comes out. He Is usually amazed that others lay so much store by his fits.
 Habit Forming Emotion.
 Quick rage becomes habit. Any emotional demonstration be- comes a habit if the mind likes it. And these minds of ours love re- lief at any cost. Rage is a relief
 When we are good and mad we can lick the world. We love te get furious and throw our inhi. bilious to the wind. If feels so god to the wind. It feels so good to reach the stage where we can march off to the neighbors and tell them where to get off. We get. a synthetic courage, and, oh, SC chesty and forceful and reckless! We play better golf. We get the dishes done in i've minutes-what's the difference about few chips if we are so mad at somebody we slam each plate as though it was his head.
 The child is no different. In fact, not having Judgment or. control in himself, he can go us twenty times better.
 And right here lies the danger of over-indulgence. It is not the thwarted child who is likely to have such brain storms, but the constantly humored one. If con- sessions are too frequent, he won't learn to stand authority or disap- pointment. The child who gets his own way always can't stand losing it once. N
 Heredity May Decide.
 CnllQren nave QliIeTeuI uiSpOSA~ tions. There can be no dispute about it. Some are regular ire brands. In spite of theorists, l own to a conviction about heridi- tary tendency along this line. But this does not say that nothing can be done about it. Another contrib utory cause to rage is a feeling of insecurity or trouble in the home. Psychologically this has been checked up and proved.
 Remove the cause that can and should be corrected from the child's s life. That is first. However, if rage is merely self exploitation and sheer nastiness, solitude after each outbrust, or during it, is a good idea. Put him to bed and tell him he is too unpleasant to have about spelling other peoples fun. He will find in time that control pays.

Since the ned tables in this liv- ing room are relatively low, the lamps selected are tall in order to send sufficient spread of light on the book to be read beside it. However, if the end tables used were higher, the eye would catch raw glaring light from beneath the lamp shades. In that case a low CT lamp standard like that at the right in the underneath sketch, or a still lower one, as at the extreme left, would be used. Be mindful of the height of your end table and select your lamps accordingly!
 Many of the better lamps of course have adjustable upper stems and movable sockets, allow ing for change in height or spread of light.
 Bridge or floor lamps, of adjust able types like those sketched in the center, are second choice for this davenport arrangement. They should be placed at either end. the former with a 60 or 75-watt bulb in each lamp and the latter with two 60 or 75-watt bulbs in each one. The difficulty is that the tall- CT floor lamps cannot be placed far enough to the back of the dav- enport (because of the walD to keep unshaded light from striking the eyes.
 If your davenport, however, stands away from the wall, well, that's another-a coming story.

people demand in the name of health education.
 The boys and girls are quite free in their questions and dis cussions, during and following the sex lectures. Prudes will pretend to be mortified by that. Honest folk know the young ones discuss things among themselves anyway. Far better that their questions and dis cussions be founded on facts than that fairy tales or romantic stor- ies should lead the youngsters astray.
 It is significant, I think that this Lansing high school teacher says. T cannot agree with you that the | world evidently prefers to reel

 That's what I told them" Decker said. T explained that to the officer"
 And" Griff continued, "since anyone, no one would harm you to keep you from giving that testi- mony."
 Decker moistened his lips with his tongue, swallowed and said nothing.
 Therefore" Blocker said, you must know something that you're keeping back
 Decker stared at Dan Blocker, then turned to Griff.

 No. who is he?"
 That" said Griff, lis the latest authentic photograph of Philip C. Lampson, sometimes known as Cincinnati Red"
 Decker stared at the picture with wide open eyes. You're trying to trap me in some way" he said.

Did you ever notice how your family or guests gravitate toward the davenport when entering the living room? They usually do.
 So it's really not surprising how much pleasure and livableness can be secured by adding, as perfect complements to the davenport, good lamps-properly plased!
 Like an artist with Q pallet of paints, a home maker with a day. enport, lamps and end tables, can create balanced arrangement that is beautiful to the eye-and more than tnat-good to the eye from the standpoint of lighting
 How to go about it when ones davenport is placed against wall is illustrated in the accompanying sketch.
 Although the lamp arrangement looks casually and gracefully sim pie, it embodies several technically correct things over which light ing specialist would nod his head in approval.
 To begin with, the lamps (quite modish as twinsD are just the right height for this arrangement. Two 60-watt bulbs in each lamp insure adequate light. The shades are open at the top and sufficient ly opaque to avoid undue bright ness and glare even when both bulbs in a lamp are in use for reading, sewing. or studying.
