SEWER BONDS
UP FOR VOTE
INFREDERICK

FREDERICK. Md, Aug. 20
Citizens of this historic old towr
will go to the polls next month al
a special election to vote on q
$550,000 sewer bond issue.
This was announced today fol
lowing an old fashioned "towr
meeting" last night, when several
hundred citizens packed Win
chester Hall, the century-old site
of the Frederick Female Institute
to discuss the bond proposal.
Commenting on the meeting
Herbert S. Shredder, president ol
the board of aldermen, said:
1.-TWO months ago l did not
believe the bond issue would
pass. But opposition has died
down, and now I feel sure II
will be voted. There Is no ques.
ton but what the town needs
this system"
An ordinance calling for the
special election has been drawn
up and will be passed at a meet
ing of the board, probably to-
night. The ordinance must then
be advertised for 20 days. It Is
hoped to hold the election around
September "a.
PWA to Pay $452,0OO
IF the citv passes the bond Is.
sue, the Public Works Administra'
tion stands ready to approve an
outright Federal grant Of $452, 200
to construct a sewage disposal
system, the entire project to cost
around one million dollars. The
remainder would be raised by the
bond issue.
Construction Of the system
would take about 16 months, en-.
gineers estimate, and would pro.
vide jobs for between 400 and
500 men.
Opposition to the project had
followed three lines. They were:
!. One group, representing fl
nancial interests of the district,
who wished to obtain a PWA
grant of approximately 100000
more than the PWA offers.
2. A group Of taxpayers who as.
serted that construction Of the
plant would require an increase in
taxes to meet interest and sinking
fund payments and to operate the
plant.
3. A group Of property owners
who contended that it would be
too expensive to connect present
disposal outlets to the new sewers,
Objections Answered
The first group withdrew its op.
position when Secretary Ickes re.
fused to allow this shopping
around" for funds, and the city
was threatened with loss Of the
PWA grant.
The other groups were an.
Swered last night when engi
neers pointed out that the entire
cost of payments and mainte
nance would amount to only
about $13 per family per year
DoubterS were whipped into
line by the yelled threat that the
State Board of Health would
order sewers installed and the
city in that event would have
to pay the entire one million
dollars.

Ran ExpenditureS
Excessive local and national
spending Of the taxpayers money
was condemned in resolutions
adopted by. the convention. In
reference to national expenditures
the resolution of the convention
read:
eve direct attention to the
fact that bonds Of Virginia are
selling materially higher than
the United States bonds. This
we attribute to the fact that
Virginia has proceeded upon
'pay-as-we-go' plan. We resolve
that we demand a like course
of action by the National Gov
ernment."
DR.. Brown in his keynote ad-
dress tore into President Roose-
velt and the Brain Trust. He
said:

orders of any demagOgues who
crack the whip. This is not

the Government made US all
sing I don't know where I'm
going, but I'm on my way
They promised us New Deal,
but they didn't tell us it was
going to be a Raw Deal. The
present spending Of our money
can't be tolerated by well think
ing Americans. Why the New
Dealers would change the Con-
stitution Just to better the ad-
vantage Of a selected few. I
ask that we all turn thumbs
down on the raw dealers and
their wild spending.
"Where is that Blue Eagle?
You know, and 1 know. I think
his feathers have been pretty
well plucked, and it was men
like william Randolph Hearst
that fought such violations Of
the Constitution as the NRA.
Such wild expenditure Of the
taxpayers money and the at
tempt to virtually buy an elec-
tiOn with the taxpayers money
will resound on Roosevelt and
his cohorts in the 1886 election.
do you realize if a man
would spend $1,000 a day from
the time Christ was born to
the present time, he wouldn't

Child May
ThinkWhen
Acting Idle
BY ANGELO PATRI.

IF YOU knew that you had to work
with a machine all your life, you
would learn how it worked. Children
have a machine side to their being
and we would do a better Job with
them if we learned a bit about its
working. Take the effect of a thought
on the muscles of the body as start
ing place.
Whenever a thought enters the mind
it starts certain muscles moving. If
the mind does not send out the order
to 60, the movements are scarcely
noticeable. But they are there. AS
the child listens to words his speech
muscles are working. AS he thinks
about running for base in the game
that is to come at recess, his RUNNING
muscles are twitching and are held
quiet by his will All day long and
even in Sleep this law works. "All
ideas in consciousness tend to dis
charge themselves through the motor
areas"
Children think of things that are
not disclosed to us. Thoughts are
shadoWy forces at best and as they fit
acros the child's mind he controls his
body so that they do not show on the
surface. But there they are working
away, straining at the leash that the
body imposes upon them. If the
thought is strong enough it struggles
with the body which grows weary Of
the battle and the WEAKNESS shows it,
self in strange behavior.
George is a nuisance in class. He
won't even try to sit still. He wiggle.
and squirms, he answers out of turn
he will not settle down and give us a
minutes peace. Either he goes out
of the room or I'm headed for the
hospital
Lets have the doctor look at him
and see what he can find" The doctor
found nothing. George continued to
be a nuisance and his teacher was
about desperate. So was his mother.

Fruit Made
Safer With
HonneWash
Vegetables Also Need
Similar Treatment
Before Using.
BY EDITH NJ. BARBER.

How can I be sure that fruits
and green vegetables are safe
to use? The other day read a
report ip the paper that the sprays
of poisonous materials used to get
rid of insects are dangerous" Sew
eral times last week questions of this
type have come to me since the re-
search made on this subject was made
public.
A careful study of fruits and vege-
tables in the market showed that in
many cases the residue of the sprays,
which are necessarily used to prevent
their destruction by insects, is large
enough 20 produce i'll effects. The
Interpretation Of these results, as far
as the housewife is concerned, means
not that she should discontinue the
use of fruits and vegetables but that
she should be even more careful than
usual in washing and preparing them
for the table. Some growers take
care to remove a large part of the
material used in spraying before the
products are shipped, others are not
so careful, and in some cases it is
probably impracticable The house
wife, therefore, should take no
chances, but should give all fruits
and vegetables a thorough washing
before she uses them.
Particular care should be taken to
remove the blossom ends of fruits,
where the residue Of the spray Is likely
to accumulate. Berries should pe put
in large bowl of water, which should
be changed several times. They may
then be put IN a strainer, given an
extra rinsing under the faucet and
shaken TO remove excess moisture.
The outside leaves of cabbage let
tuce and salad greens should be re-
moved and discarded. The Inside
leaves should be carefully separated
and washed thoroughly, after which
they may be ,haken in a colander or
dried with towel before they are put
into the refrigerator to chill.
Let me note that it is the. ac-
cumulated effect of these products.
which stored i'll the body, may have
bad effects. There is seldom enough
residue on one serving on any of
them to De harmful.
The housewife has usually been &C.
cuStomed to exercising care in the
preparation of food for the table, but
it will be worth while for her to take
even more seriously this one of her
many responsibilities.

Nervous Wreck.

Dear Miss Leeds: I am rs years
old, 5 feet 5 inches tall. My blood
pressure is 35 per cent below normal
all the time. weigh 124 pounds.
I have blue eyes and fair skin, but
my complexion is bad. Please advise
me. A. N.
Answer-I trust that you are under
a doctors care and are working
toward restoration of good health
with his guidance. You are only
about seven pounds below the average
weight for your age and height. You
cannot hope to have a lovely COM
plexion until you have better mental
and physical health. Nervousness is
one of the worst enemies of beauty
and it brings on premature aging
more quickly than anything else, so
you must concentrate your efforts on
building radiant health if you want
to have your share Of good looks and
good times. In the meantime a few
makeup tricks might help you look
more attractive. It would do you
good, ! believe, to 60 to a beauty shop,
have a soothing facial treatment and
let the operator put on makeup for
you. If you are very sallow, a deli
cate application of rouge over most
of your face, before powder is applied,
will give f1attering warm glow to
your complexion. My leaflet Make
up for Your Type" would be helpful to
you. If you desire copy, send me

use of the dark pieces as shown in the
drawing. The artist has put them
there to make the picture look more
interesting in the paper. But what
you really do is to choose small figured
prints of about the same color weight
and use them for all the pieces labeled
'colored' in the direction leaflet.
IT have a quilt made like this and
the pieced Pinch blocks as shown
here are set together with 12-inch
blocks of small all-over print of tiny
black rings on white ground. The
finished effect is that of an old-fash-
ioned quilt.
But in my quilt I still keep the
pieces shown white in this picture in
pure white. This contrast of white in
the pieced block with the figured white
and black print makes the pieced block
stand out in beautiful relief.
"I really think that this is one OF
the prettiest of pieced quilt patterns
that I have ever seen. 1t is not easy
to put together since care must be
taken to get the small lozenges with
long sides meeting long sides. But
once you learn to observe that caution
it is not bad"
The quilt members sent for the
direction leaf1et and used it, being
sure to allow one-quarter inch on all
sides of the pieces for cutting pat

Greatest Mistake Couple Can Make Is to
Live With Parents After Marriage.

brute and was sorry and the girl
could have sobbed out on his breast
that she was a little goose But they
we're ashamed to do this with the
family looking on and showing that
they thought the man was hen
pecked if he gave in. and that the
girl lacked spunk If she let her hus-
band tell her where she got of.
A YOUNG couple should live alone
when they are first married, be-
cause being by themselves draws them
closer together. 1t makes them de-
pendent upon each other for society,
and brings about comradeship that
they never have il they are living in
house full of people Many a man
gets in the habit of treating his wife
in cold and undemonstrative man
ner, because he can't make a fuss
over her and tell her she is the sweet
est thing in the world, or give her the
kiss that would hang the sun in her
heavens. with the family looking on
and kidding him.
Many a man never confides in his
wife or talks over his business with
her. because, when they were first
married, they lived with his people
or her people and they had no oppor-
tunity for private conversation. He
didn't want to tell them his plans
and hopes and so he got in the way
of keeping his own secrets and shut
ting her out of his real life.
EVERY young couple should go
alone to their own home, no
matter how small and humble it is,
because if they don't, it takes half
the JOY out of marriage to the bride.
All her life, ever since she played
doll house, she has planned and
dreamed about her own home. that
was to be just the way she wanted
it, and in which she would cook just
the thing she liked, and it is
tragedy when she fails to realize this
vision. Besides, having her own
houSework gives a girl something to
do and lets her down easily from the
job she has given up or the parties
she used TO go to.
And. most of all, for the young
couple to go alone saves those ghastly
family quarrels that embitter SO many
lives. For the way to keep friends
with your in-laws is not to live to-
gether. No house was ever built big
enough for two families.

is a subject which is really i'm
possible to discuss in detail, as I know
of no occasion so individual in its
aspects. No two people ever agree
exactly on a breakfast menu, and at
that hour in the morning personal
likes and disikes may rapidly develop
into an issue of serious proportions.
Therefore, all 1 can do is commend
you to your own breakfast ideas,
simply adding the warning that hot
things must be really hot and cold
things iced. Daintiness in prepara-
ton of the food is paramount. and
small portions are far more appe-
tizing than large ones. A valuable
addition to the service is a small,
shiny thermos jug to keep coffee or
tea at just the right temperature for
the second cup.
Have the toast and the bacon crisp
and the butter fresh and cold. A good
way to insure the chilliness of the
fruit juice is to shake it with ice in
a shaker just before serving. This
makes it light and frothy and gets it
cold without dilution.
Heat all the necessary dishes thor
oughly to keep the contents good and
warm, arrange them on the tray with
an eye to convenience as well as
beauty-and enjoy your breakfast to
