A NNAPOLIS, Md, November 8.
~ -Notre Dame formations,
n with which Navy people have
been so familiar for the past
three years, were seen here for the
first time this season yesterday when
"B" squad, thoroughly drilled in that
.ihe Of play, took the offensive against
the varsity as a foretaste of what it
might expect in Cleveland next Sat-
urday.
The varsity had little trouble In
stopping the plays which started
from the well known box formation
as the second team was able to put
them over, though it is expecting more
difficulty from the originals at the
end of the week.
News from Cleveland is that there
will be a capacity crowd in the sta
dium, which holds 10000, and also
that for the first time in the series,
OF which the coming game Is the
eighth, Navy is the favorite. This,
however, will not cause letdown on
the part of Tom Hamilton's charges.

Philadelphia. (UP)-Baby dolls that suck from nipple and breathe like real, live babies, are new play thrill which Santa Claus will bring to 1884 Christmas trees.

Tiny rubber hathinettes. 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- tection against drafts. Educators favor this type of initiative play because it trains rnanipulative skill. stimulates imagination and efficiently. prepares for grown-up tasks.
 Hair is gaining new favor in the doll world. Long curls and wind- blown bobs will be well represent ed this season along with the sleek, lacquered coiff1res. 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 pa5amas for tea.

REAL HEALTH EDUCATION

REAL HEALTH EDUCATION
 Much that purports to be health education in our common schools is sheer hooey. How can any one with a modicum of common sense imagine a young woman who has been trained to teach geography or arithme etic can take charge of the class in physiology and hygiene if she happens to have vacant per- iod? That is the way physiology and hygiene or health is handled in the average elementary or high school.
 In Lansingc 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 frankly, thoroughly, practically. The boys in one room, the girls in another, listen to different lec- boys among group of six hun lures. At the first lecture. tw q dred were shocked and they faint ed. What do you say about that, old pruders? think it 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 a conscquence of their ignorance
 One of the teachers in this ,Lans- 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:
 x Certainly all teachers are
 not fitted to engage in direct sex teaching. This task is for
 a 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
 imparted :"
 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 hooey which sane

 It is hard to handle the cranky child. One who fies into sudden un- controlled rages is even a bigger CT or sister.
 As a matter of fact he is hap pier in his way than almost any other child living. Rage is 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 chill dren usually have some deep-seat- ed cause for their unhappiness, sometimes imaginary 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 it 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 relief.

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 life. That is first. However, If rage is merely self exploitation and sheer nastiness, solitude after each outbrust, CT. during it. is a good idea.

 The girl who goes to business must plan coiffure that will look well for at least three hours at a time. Tn addition, it generally has to be a rather versatile style, sim pie enough; for the office and, with maybe one or two curls and swirls added, appropriate for evening.
 The average business woman. after all; hasn't the time or the means to have her hair arranged in beauty shop before every eve ming party. She can't leave her desk at five, spent two hours with a hairdresser, bathe. dress and still be on. time for a formal din- ner at seven-thirty. Obviously, then, her coiffure needs are quite different from those of woman
 who can make beauty appoint ments in the middle of the after moon.
 Of course, .everyone's hair should
 be groomed by a professional at least once every ten days. A scalp treatment, Q shampoo and a good
 wave should keep you going in fine shape. That is, if you learn how to do things for yourself between vls- it's to the salon.
 One of the business women who is an exceptional example or those who learn coiffure tricks teaches reducing exercises in one of our we'll known beauty salons and has, as you can well imagine, mini mum of time to devote to her own grooming. However, she always looks neat and her hair always IS in place. She brushes 1t straight back from her forehead and then makes four rows of small curls across the back. Two hairpins keep it behind. her ears, When she goes out in the evening it is a sim
 pie matter to give it the much sought fluffy ppearance.

 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.

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 livablencss can be secured by adding, as perfect complements to the davenport, good lamps-properly placed! Like an artist with a pallet of paints, a home maker with a dav- enport, lamps and end tables, can create a balanced arrangement that is beautiful to the eye-and more thar tnat-good to the eye from the standpoint of lighting. How to go about it when ones davenport is placed against wall i is illustrated in the accompanying sketch.
 Although the lamp arrangement looks casually and gracefully sim pie, it embodies several technically correct things over which a light ing specialist would nod his head in approval.
 To begin with, the lamps (quite modish as twins!D are just tie 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.
