rooms at McCabe school are gay
with the orange and black decora-
tions of cats, witches, and jack o.
lanterns. A Halloween assembly will

by the students in Miss Moline'S
room. A characteristic adobe Indian
pueblo is being built by them in
conjunction with their work on In
CLANS. They have made many at

dian homes during their study of
them. Another attractive display of
posters has been made by the stu
dents of Miss Helen Van Fleet. AS
the class is now interested in health
and the proper foods their posters
deal with this subject. In the sew
enth and eight grade room of Mrs.

MINERS MINIMUM
WAGES REDUCED

Washington, D. C. (ILNS)-An ad-
ministrative order has been issued by
Gen. Johnson, recovery administrator
permitting bituminous coal operators
in Vanderburgh and Warrick coun-
ties, Indiana, to reduce minimum
wages to meet competition from
mines in Western Kentucky across
the Ohio river. The operators have
been paying minimums of $4.57k a
day for inside labor and Sd per day
for outside labor as against Sd for
inside labor and So a day for outside
labor paid by Kentucky mines. I'm
der Johnson's ruling Indiana mines
will reduce rates to $4.20 for inside
labor and $500 for outside labor.

in some states to 16 years, with pro-
vision for part-time attendance for
workers beyond that age, in most
states there is a gap between the
age of release from compulsory at
tendance and the minimum age of
employment.
The minimum age is fixed in child
labor legislation, in NRA codes or
determined independently by indus
try which of it's own initiative has
been more generally refusing to en-
ploy workers under 16 and even in
some occupations under 18 years of
age, according to DR.. Wright.
"This gap comes at precisely that
age Of adolescence when guidance and
direction are most essential for the
future welfare of the boy or girl"
he said.
Under the vocational education act,

ed for trade and industrial educa-
ton, if expended in the states, must
be used for part-time schools-that
is, schools providing instruction dur
ing part of the regular working
time for young workers.
DIR. Wright says it would appear
that these schools in the future must
be operated almost exclusively for
workers past 16 years Of age. Con-
sequently, he maintains that the Ia
to l6-years- s-old-boy or girl must con-
tinue in fulltime attendance at the
regular day school, since "it is in
conceivable that public opinion or the
interest of parents would tolerate
complete denial of opportunity to
these boys and girls either of en-
ployment or continued education"
DIR. Wright believes that school au-
thorities must solve the problem of
providing some educational discipline
for this group of young people who
cannot benefit by further formal aca-
demic instruction.

Inc great interest IN mana
knitting has not taken any popu.
larity from machine knitted cos
tunes, but rather added to them.
People who can't knit, or do
not have time to make their own
clothes, feel more than ever the
need for something knitted or
crocheted, because they see so
many around them.
And the only thing they can
do is to buy one ready-made, un-
less they want to pay the high
prices asked to have one knitted
by hand for them.
Boucle the FavOrite
Boucle is still the favorite
yarn, except for deep deep win.

woolen knitted things. The new
linen yarn is good. but is too
new to be we'll known. And for
ready-mades, boucle has never
had a real rival.

should get one now. Many are
made with short sleeves or cape
effects, and called Sunday

ers, with short sleeves, and in
cool knit, are merely a1l-day
types, worn for work, for resorts,
for any need you may have.
Much Improved
This year boucles may be good

been improved so much that you

the knees.
Colors are always lovely in
boucle too. The dress photo
graphed on this page today
comes in such luscious shades
that it's hard to choose between
them. They are aquamarine,
gold, a very pale creamy beige,
and French blue. The belt is
brown.
This suit is in two weaves, the
body of the dress rather firm,
and the yoke and trimming
lacy. It is a two-piece, beau
tifully made and fitted we'll with
crystal buttons at the neck. It
sells for $19.75 in a downtown
store, and is a good buy because,

amount of exercising. There Is
no need to go in for expensive
sports, unless you can easily
afford them. Science has re-
duced exercising to a few min
utes of stretching and pulling
every night and merning-and
right in your own room.
I am thinking specifically of
that ingenious contrivance of
leather and rubber that costs
almost no money at all. You
slip one end of it under a door,
adjust your feet in the stirrups
and pull away-to a simmer
waistline, and a well-controlled
diaphragm.
And if your exercise problem
is to build up. instead of to take
off. this same contrivance will
help you to do it. It is accom-
panied with scientific directions
for proper movements. They are
simple to follow and very, very
effective. While you are pull
ing and stretching you have the
confidence that you are getting
somewhere in this one-two-t three
business.
So there is no excuse left for
you, lazybones. Tuck your cos
metics away for a couple of
weeks, and indulge in a little
bit of health. Watch your skin
improve and the sparkle return
to your eyes. And if you get
lazy again, remember that cos
metics should only accent your
beauty and not cover up your
inertia!

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS..
I do not know who invented
all the gentle, sentimental the
ories about Woman's Sphere;
but you may be sure of this:
It wasn't a female!
Don't girls want homes?
Don't they wish to become
wives and mothers?
Don't they enjoy having fam"
lilies?
They certainly do. But they
also enjoy doing a great many
other things. And it burns them
up when this fact isn't recog-
nized.
Every young man cherishes
an ideal of a loyal and lovely
mate who hasn't an idea out
side her family
BUT EVERY YOUNG MAN
WHO HAS HAD THE ILL FOR
TUNE TO MARRY SUCH A
EATURE WANTS TO
STRANGLE HER WITHIN
THREE MONTHS.
It isn't any more normal"
for the average young woman
to find complete satisfaction
within the four walls of her
home than it would be for the
average young man.
And it's quite as natural for
a devoted wife to go berserk
and long to commit mass MUIR
der, if she has too monotonous
a diet of home chores, as it
would be for a devoted hus.

Some Items About
Pets, Mostly
=. Dogs
BY LIZ HUME

There are not many Welsh
terriers around here, but we
have discovered two belonging
to the Lawrence Bakers. These
two pets are at present blessed
evening"" so we will tell you
more about them in June.
Mary Lib Macarthur has Just
been given a cunning police
dog puppy. Only a few months
old, he is mischievous addi.
ton to the Macarthur house
hold.
One Of the funniest sights
around town is the sheep dog
(whose picture we have already
had) belonging to Miss Violet
Biddle. His chief delight is
jumping over hedges and
fences in the vicity of Q Street
and Connecticut Avenue. This
he does under the guidance of
a boy who exercises him. To
see this large and heavily
furred creature leaping through
space is very amusing indeed.
Lee Wells Talbot, whose "cre-
ative millinery" is so popular
with Capital socialites, has an
ideal pet. a cat. This is a
remarkable cat indeed. It costs
her nothing to feed him, and
he requires no attention what
Soever, and for one reason
only-he is china, a lovely
Dresden one.
There is a postman out in
Chevy Chase who likes com.
pany when he makes his daily
rounds. So he has acquired
several dogs who accompany
him from door to door. These
pets are we'll known to all who
live in that community.
Evelyn Walker, recently re-
turned from Reno, brought a
dog home with her. Some day
soon we will have to take a
day off and journey down to
Webley, the Walker estate on
the Eastern Shore. where Eve
lyn keeps several pets. She used
to have a bloodhound-and a
lamb.
"Spraggon," a scottie, came
all the day down from Phila-
delphia with the Wayne ClarkS
to get plucked by experts here.
He discarded his winter coat
for a brand-new one-a very
lightweight spring model.

A Borrowing SuitOr
Dear Miss Fairfax:
No doubt you will think this
is the worst letter you've ever
had, and I agree with you. Sew
eral months ago I met a most
attractive young man who in
terested me lots.
I met him through my
brother, and one evening, after
telling me a story which is too
long to relate to you, he asked
me if 1 would get him my
brothers evening clothes, as his
hope of landing a job depended
upon his going to a certain din
ner.
I gave him my brothers
evening clothes, like a fool, and
I just can't get them back again.
My brother will be coming home
soon, and I'm worried almost
crazy about what to do next.
SALLY.
Write the young man letter
and say that you would be very
much embarrassed to put this
matter into the hands of a law
yer, but if he does not return
your brothers evening clothes
he will leave no other course
open to you. And then, if he
doesn't return them, better 'teSs

LISTEN WORLD

"Every woman is a wild, wild

''Deep inside"
There is the simple truth
about "the gentler SEX" Women
are naturally no gentler than
men-no more timid-no more
addicted to firesides and cosy
corners. To the contrary
WOMEN ARE THE EX-
CITED, THE CURIOUS, THE
ADVENTUROUS SEX.
Startling as this statement
will seem to complacent hus-
bands, Family Life is as arti-
ficial a habit for women as for
men. The primitive mother was
as much gypsy as the primi'
tive father. Housekeeping, at
best, was originally a catch-as.
catch-can affair, in which Papa
did quite as much catching as
Mama.
Savage females worked as
laboriously as savage males,
but their work was also as di-
versified. Mixing bowls and
sewing baskets were not con.
sidered exclusively feminine per.
quisites in 1884 B. c.; nor are
they today in many a primitive
tribe where Big Braves often
cook, weave and Shush the baby
while the Missis builds, digs or
gabbles with the other girls.
So there's nothing that makes
the Dear Little Woman at
Home madder than to regard
her as a Dear Little Woman at
Homeland nothing else but.
She can't explain just why it
makes her mad. or why she
feels that the Big Boy is get

Something is! All these dis
