FAIRFAX, Va, October 30.-Plans
for American Education week, to be
observed from November to II, were
discussed at meeting of the Fairfax
County Education Association here
last night.
DR.. Belmont Farley Of the National
Education Association. outlined the
DEVELOPMENTS In education through
out the Nation. He declared Educa-
ton week is the ideal time for schools
to give the public an insight into
their workings and what they are en-
deavoring to accomplish for future
citizens.
He asserted the decline in educa-
tional opportunity that came with
the depression has apparently reach
ed its lowest point. He pointed to
. slight increase in the national
average of funds appropriated for
schools and to the fact that teachers
salaries on the average are now
slightly higher than for the session
1928.
Division Supt. W. r. Woodson
urged a closer cooperation between
the teacher and the home. He said
the best Interpretation of the school
can come from the school itself
through the teachers and pupils.
Schools over the entire county
were asked to cooperate in the OBJ
servance of American Education week
by Gordon E. Smith, principal Of Lee
jackson High School, president of the
county education group. A meeting
Of all high and elementary principals

An indictment accusing the COM

Of the acts of 1888, was returned
against the cemetery October II. The
chapter prohibits the establishment
of new cemeteries in an area Of about

The Rhymin9
Optimist
BY ALINE MICHAELIS

De VaCa In the wilderness
Eight years the Spanish knight,
de Vaca, went
Preserved most strangely from
strange enemies,
With stumbling steps across our
continent.
Immune from savage stealth
and dread disease,
Ships sank beneath him,
stormy seas SpeWed death;
But stout of heart, he van
quished every i'll.
For he was clad in armor
wrought of faith
In God, in prayer, and in his
own vast will.
It seemed another world he
wandered through,
So alien was it to his glamor-
ous Spain;
This land so cryptic beautiful
and new.
So rich in promise, yet so brim-
med with pain.
And even in age de Vaca felt
in dreams
The wild, strange lure of Texas
plains and streams.

)ERN EQUIPMENT REMOVES MAJOR DRUDGEREs OF HOUSEKEEPING
Puppies Thrive
On Simple
Fare
BY LIZ HUME

These ten husky-but still
hungry-Da m a t i a n puppies
pictured here belong to Miss
Edna Roth, of 4400 Cathedral
Ave. Thank you Miss Roth for
the amusing and very clear pic
ture of your pets.
In their papers, they boast
connection with the famous Dal-
matian, Tallyho Last of Sunstar.
When Miss Roth got the dam OF
these puppies, she was just two
months old. She was named
Pebbles SunStar and registered
in the American Kennel Club.
Easy Task
Seeing the pups gobble down
their food reminds me Of the
problem of feeding puppies. 1t
is one of the most perplexing
ones confronting the beginner.
In reality this should be one Of
the easiest tasks. Merely plain
common sense and judgment is
all that is required.
The more simple a puppy is
fed, and the less fusSing about
his meals, the better it is for the
pup as well as for all others
concerned. Nothing fancy, moth
ing complicated in preparation
and no extraordinary line of
diet should be offered to the
puppy. Just good, plain whole
some and nourishing food.
Meat and Milk
First of all let it be explained
that the idea that dogs should
not have milk to drink and that
meat is undesirable, even dan
gerous, especially for puppies
should be entirely ignored.
Nothing is better or more proper
as a food than milk-cow's
milk. And there is no more
fitting food for any dog than
meat-beef or lamb Cor mutton).
If you feed your dog, and let
him drink water from dishes
which you keep Sterilized, then
your pet should keep well and
strong.
Too liberal an allowance of
vegetable matter will cause far
more harm than good. Leave
the vegetable eating until the
animal is quite a bit older.
When a puppy is six months of
age, that is time enough to be.
gin this form of feeding.
If you have q good picture
of your pet, Liz Hume invites
you to send it in for use in

turned.

some of your experiences would

Correct Care Of
Feet Aids
Beauty
BY JULIET SHELBY
The Beauty Reporter

No woman can appear truly
lovely if foot pains have sent
up their telegraphic messages,
and caused dropping lines to
etch themselves over her face.
I firmly believe that to appear
gracious and charming we must
be comfortable. Moreover, al
though slight foot pains may
cause but temporary lines, all
too often these lines become
permanent if the real cause is
not removed.
At the very first sign of foot
discomfort, before it has a
chance of causing permanent
MISUNDERSTANDING lines, I sug-
gest that you make use of the
special corrective aids I shall
tell you about.
If callous spots over the balls
of your feet interfere with
your daily activities, by all
means use the medicated pads
that are made especially to re-
lieve this condition. Simply
press one of these pads over the
affected area; tn e n you'll be
able to walk along, light of foot
and free from scowling, droop-
ing facial lines.
Smaller pads should be used
over the toes if they develop
callous spots. These unlovely,
painful spots are the fore
runner of even more serious foot
discomfort and should be imme-
diately checked.
If constant shoe friction al
ready has developed hard,
roughened and sensitive skin
over your instep or heel, or if
any similar foot discomfort is
present, by all means check it
at once.
Don't use a razor blade in an
effort to remove callous spots,
for unless one is skilled in han
ding sharp instruments, the re-
suits may prove quite unpleas-
ant.
If your feet are tired after a
busy day, give them a warm
saltwater bath, then dry them
well, apply a little soothing
cream and massage firmly over
the Soles, heels and insteps.
Stretch the toes with your fin
gers, then twist and exercise the
26 bones of each foot.
Use the medicated and COM
fort-giving pads over the offend
ing callous spots. To assure a
serene, gracious manner, take
care of your feet and keep them
comfortable. Correct care of
these busy members will repay
you with a buoyant carriage.
So be sure to heed the tele-
graphic messages that warn Of
foot discomfortS before these
etch deep, scowling lines over
your face.
