INTERESTING
STORY TOLD OF
WESTERN CLINIC

This story begins seven years ago
when the public health nurse in one OF
the counties in the Western part OF
the State-a newcomer in the county
stopped for friendly word with some
children on their way to school. They
liked her and one of them said, "There
are some little children up ON the
mountain road who can't walk because
their feet are all twistea,~
The nurse found out Just where the
children lived and in a few minutes
her little car was headed up the
mountain road" The mother was
ct home and with her were the three
little children with the twisted feet,
a boy of eight; one of five and the
baby sister, a year old. All three
were born that way, she told the Wis
itor.
The nurse told the mother about
the clinic that was to be held very
soon, in the nearest town, for children
who were lame, or who had trouble Of
some sort with their backs or arms, or
legs, or, like her children, had club
feet. Would the mother let her take
the children down to the clinic? She
would take the mother too, so that
she could hear what the doctor would
say,
They all went to the clinic and they
waited hgeathlessly fer the ehilGheAs
tsEA 10 be examined The doctor went
ever each one Of them carefully, and
then turned to the mother and told
Der the little feet could be Strengthened
50 that they could walk and run and
play like other children. Of course,
they would have to go to the hos
pital to have it done, he said, and it
might take long time.
The mother and father gave their
permission and arrangements were
made for the children to be operated
on in hospital in Baltimore City.
That was in 1927. A photograph
taken at that time, shows the three,
hand in hand, fine and sturdy above
the knees, but the little legs and feet
aeferMed and twisted, There is am
ether picture of them taken two or
three years later after they had been
operated on. This shows them with
the legs and feet almost straight A
third picture, taken recently, shows
the way they look, now. They stand
in row-straight and tall, bright
eyed and fine looking. The oldest boy
is fifteen, the next twelve and the lit
tie girl is eight.
The clinic through which the little
twisted feet were made straight, was
held under the auspices of the Mary
land League for Crippled Children and
the County Department of Health.
Since the League was organized in
1927, over 1,400 persons in the coun-

ties and over 100 in Baltimore City
have had the benefit of special SER
vice through its efforts. Many of
the children have had to have hospital
care and surgical treatment. Others,
through the help Of service clubs and
other organizations have been supplied
with braces and supports.

Fitted Slip Is Provided With an Ulnderam
Designers Set New Mark With
Unbroken Effect Showing
Perfect Symmetry.
Lingerie Material Is Offered in
Exquisite Types With
Remarkable Results.
BY BARBARA BELL,

IN THE fanfare and furore about
sleek-fitting undergarments to
wear under our smooth, stream
line frocks, the underwear de-
signers have surpassed themselves
in thinking up ways and means Of
molding our figures so that an un-
broken effect of perfect symmetry will
be the foundation Of our new light
weight frocks.
The slip sketched today bases its
silhouette upon the form-fltting lines
of the new Summer dresses. 1t is
high and firm, the waistline smooth,
and the hips are gracefully curved.
These excellent aids to fashionable
figure are further enhanced by neat
under-arm fastening, that leaves the
back smooth and free from bulges.
This slip is available in two lengths
"a longer one that has a shadow
proof back and a short one that can
be converted into a panty combina-
ton by putting on strap.
The materials for lingerie, this
Summer, are so exquisite that it seems
a pity to cover them with clothes.
Listed in the order of their impor-
tance, they are satin, crepe de chine,
taffeta and cotton. For use under
clinging gowns, satin should be chos-
en-, and for a foundation slip under
mousseline and organza, taffeta has
no rival. Few materials look so in
ferior as these transparent ones when
the slip beneath is inadequate. Taf-
feta, with its sustaining qualities,
seems the one perfect compliment to
these fabrics Among the luxuries of
the season are the cotton and linen
slips, that appeal to women who feel
the heat and take an interest in hav-
ing their underclothes washed and
boiled in the good. old-fashioned way.
They have reputation for being cool,
and at the moment are extremely
fashionable.
Barbara Bell pattern No. 1888 is
designed in sizes IA to 20; 80 to A.
Size 16, or "a, requires 31a yards of
IS or 80 inch material. for longer
slip; IA yards Of material for short
combination, IS yard of all-over lace
for brasSiere top, 212 yards edging for
trimming at bottom.
Every Barbara Bell pattern has an
illustrated instruction guide that is
easy to follow.

-Rattles the Kingfisher.
ATTLES the Kingfisher had
little to do now but fish when
N he was hungry and loaf when
i \ he wasn't. The new home In
the wall of the gravel pit in
the Old Pasture was finished and on
the bed of leaves and grasses in the
snug bed room 9 feet in from the
entrance were nine white eggs on
which Mrs Rattles spent most of her
time sitting. When the fifth egg was
laid Rattles had thought that would
be all. 1t was all they had had the
year before and the year before that.
So he was somewhat surprised when
he visited the nest while Mrs. Rattles
was out fishing and discovered six.
And when the next day he was in
formed that there were seven he was
a little disconnected, and when the
number reached nine he felt some
thing like CONSERVATION.
MY dear" said he. do you realize
what it will mean If all those eggs
hatch?"
Certainly" replied Mrs. Rattles.
"It will mean the finest family we
have ever raised"
1T will mean nearly twice as many
mouths to feed as we had last year,
and it seemed to me then that we
would never get those children filled
up. I don't for the life of me see how
we ever can feed nearly twice as
many"
Perhaps they won't all hatch. but
I hope they will, and they will If

MARTYR TO
CONSTIPATION
But Kellogg's ALL-BRAN
Brought Welcome Relief

Read this splendid letter from
Mrs. Haynes:
For so years I have been a
martyr to constipation. Have tried
every remedy under the sun.
"One day I read an account Of
some one who had been relieved by
ALL bran, but I thought What
was the use Of me trying anything
more when all else had failed?'
"A while after, I read it again.
That time I thought would try
it, 1t would do no harm anyway.
II began with a small dish Of
your ALL-BRAN for breakfast. and
wonderful to say, never need to
take any physic at all now. How
wish other poor sufferers from con-
stipation could be persuaded to try
it."-Mrs. Sarah Haynes, 1873 Ce-

Tests show Kellogg's ALL-BRAN
provides bulk" and vitamin B to
aid regular habits. Also iron for

This bulk" in ALL-BRAN Is
much like that in leafy vegetables.
It's so much safer than taking

spoonfuls of ALL-BRAN daily are
usually sufficient. Severe cases.

are any to feed? It will be time
enough to worry about that later"
Rattles went away unconvinced, but
as the days passed, with nothing to
do but fish and loaf about the Smiling
Pool and along the Big River, he al
most forgot that there would be any
hungry mouths to feed. He rarely
saw Mrs. Rattles except when she
came on hurried visits to the Smiling
Pool to catch q breakfast or dinner
or supper, as the case might be. A
week slipped away and then another.
On the morning of the seventeenth
day, as Rattles sat in the Big Hick-
ory on the bank Of the Smiling Pool,
Mrs. Rattles arrived In q state Of
great excitement. He saw her COM
ing and he knew she was excited by
the way she flew.
What is 1t, my dear?" he asked
anxiously as she aighted beside him.
They've hatched!" she cried q
little breathlessly.
How many?" asked Rattles.
"All," replied Mrs. Rattles, proudly.
"All!" echoed Rattles in something
very like dismay.

them. But In the darkness Of that
bed room so far in the bank this
didn't matter much so far as looks
went. However, Rattles wisely agreed
that they were darlings and then left
to begin fishing in earnest. He knew
that from now on he would have to

would be no time for loafing.
