Wife Fears
Loss of
Home
Dear Miss Fairfax:

Dear MISS Falr1aX:
1 am the mother of four chill.
dren, the oldest Of whom is a
boy of 10. Until two years ago,
my husband and 1 lived very
happily together. Then we went
to live with his people, and he
began to see all kinds of faults
in me and accuse me Of them
before my children.
I thought after We left his
people and went to ourselves to
live, things would be better, but
he continued his old abusive
ways.
His sister came to my house
and told me that if it were not
for the children, my husband
would leave me. These in-laWs
of mine seem to be breaking up
my home.
A DISTRAUGHT MOTHER.
If your husband has a job,
and you have four children,
he will be obliged to con-
tribute to your support and
their maintenance, unless he
leaves town. And men, with
any degree of proper pride,
object to having their families
become objects of charity.
When men approach middle
age, frequently they go hay
wire, domestically speaking.
It's a sort of last call for
dinner, in the dining car, with
them, and the first symptom is
to become abusive to their
hard-working wives. Try to re-
tain your composure and do
not let these meddlesome in
laws upset you unduly.
A good many men succeed
in weathering this half-cracked
period and emerge as good as
ever.

# the child is sickeling with
Q cold it probably will not wish
to eat. Do not force food upon
it, but give plenty Of cool boiled
water. Make sure that the
processes of elimination are
working properly, and undreSs
the baby and put it to bed in a
quiet room.
A mustard plaster, made with
plenty of flour and oil, will not
hurt the baby, even though I
know that some modern medi-
cal men rather laugh at this
old-fashioned remedy. admit
suggesting to more than one
mother that she make a mus
tard plaster, chiefly because I
knew it wouldn't do the child
any harm and would do the
mother good!

Dear E. L.:
It is quite natural for the face
to appear shiny after washing,
and there is no reason why you
should not use little powder.
A very little cream smoothed

pure powder, will improve its
appearance and is harmless.

Just Eighteen

By ALINE MICHAELIS
Just Eighteen
He was just eighteen when he
went away
And a mothers heart is torn,
While the places that knew him
so blithe, so gay.
Are lonely now and forlorn.
Before him, Life stretched forth
reckoning hands
$50 much for a lad to doD
All earth's unsailed seas, all
untrodden lands,
Were waiting him, fair and
new!
He would soon have found there
was work for him.
And the dream Of a woman'S
lips;
All youths realm was his to the
blue sky's rim,
And his hopes were like hon.
ing ships.
He was just eighteen and he
never knew
In his brief years. golden span
That there can be dreams
which do not come true,
Sometimes, in the life of a man.
He was just eighteen when he
went away,
So his mother can clasp this
joy;
There was not a shadow Of
care to stray
On the sunlit soul Of her boy.

First Calls on NewlywedS

First Calls on Newlyweds
Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
My brother is to be married
at a church wedding. The
wedding will be at 8 o'clock in
the evening. I would like to
know If I should wear q hat
and gloves with my evening
dress, and if so, what type Of
hat?
There is to be no reception.
When should the groom's fam"
lily call on the bride and her
family? Since the "bride-to-
be" lives in another state we
have not made any calls since
the engagement has been an
nounced. B.
Unless the denomination Of
the church in which the eve
ming wedding is to be per-
formed forbids women entering
the church with uncovered
heads, women usually do not wear
hats with the formal evening
clothes and evening wraps that
they wear to an evening we'd
ding. And they wear gloves or
not, as they wish.
Since it has been impossible
for the parents of the groom
to-be to make the call-of-wel.
coming-into-the-family on the
bride and her parents, they
have undoubtedly written vel.
coming letters to her.
And when the groom's father
and mother arrive in the city
in which the wedding is to be
held, they would as soon as
possible make this important
call on the bride and her family.

those who suffer from a slightly
lily skin condition, may use it
as frequently as desired.
Unless your skin is very oily,
a little cold cream in cold eli
mates, or a powder foundation
in a hot country, will add
beauty to your skin if applied
after washing your face and
before making-up.
It's much easier to get money
for soap from Dad or friend
husband than it is for any
other cosmetic. Somehow men
like to believe that any woman
can keep fresh glowing skin
by sticking to soap and water
alone. After all, let us grant,
they are about two-thirdS cor

Wedding Gift
Dear Mrs. Beeckman:


Is it customary to send a
present when. you get an invi'
tation to a church wedding and
not the reception. T.
There's no rule about this,
for it depend entirely on your
own choice as to whether or not
you wish to send q gift. But
there is this about it: that the
fact that you are invited to
the church ceremony and not
to the reception indicates that
you are not an especially close
friend of the couple, and there
fore, if you do send a gift, it
probably would not be such an
important one as it would be if
you were closer in friendship
to the couple.

MILLS REPORT
INCREASING
BUSINESS

Increased September activity at
steel mills, with greater output in
lumber mills and mill consump-
ton Of cotton during August, was
reported today by the Federal Re-
serve Board.
Output of bituminous coal also
showed an increase, as factory
employment mad pay rolls showed
more than a seasonal growth from
the middle Of July through All
gust.
Employment increases were re-
ported for steel, machinery, silk,
lumber and clothing industries. A
6 per cent increase in the number
of wage earners in the durable
gods industries was also noted.
Factory employment on the
whole was 3 per cent larger than
in August last year.
Output in the automobile indus
try showed sharp decline, chiefly
because of a change in the time
for producing new models.
Whereas the new models were
usually shown in midwinter, the
first showing this year will come
early in November.
On the topic of bank credit, the
board reported that "excess re-
serves of member banks declined
in the five-week period ended Sep.
tember IS, reflecting a temporary
increase in the Treasury's total
holdings of cash and deposits at
Federal reserve banks and a sea-
sonal increase of money in circu-
lation, which was partly offset by
an inflow of gold from abroad"

Theme From Scarf Dance" by Cecile Chuminode

Have you q little musical prob
lem in your home? Parents are
invited to write the World Of
Music for advice on questions Of
musical education. Answers will
be published as space and time
permit.
ITO me, 'ultra-modern' music
represents only retrogression," said
the famous Russian pianist, Rach-
maninoff, in a recent interview.
II do not believe that anything
worth while can grow out Of it
because it is lacking in the one
great essential-h cart. Music
should bring relief. It should re-
habilitate peoples minds and
souls. It must reveal the emotions
Of the heart. Modern music does
not do this. 1t is just color and
rhythm"
Rachmaninoff expressed his be-
lief that out of the depression
from which the United States
seems to be slowly emerging will
come the greatest enthusiasm for
music, art and literature this
country has so far experienced.
"You will see, first, there will
come a more general interest in
the arts. After interest comes
understanding and, finally, love,
which produces great masters and
great masterpieces"
Rachmaninoff, who will appear
here December 2, under the man.
agement Of Mrs. Dorothy Hodg-
kin Dorsey, believes that so far
as music is concerned, composers
will return to fundamentals in
stead of wasting their time expe-
rimenting with so-called ultra
modern forms of music.
An interesting contrast Of
opinion by a fellow Russian COM
poser, Stravinsky, is contained in
his recently published autobiogra-
ply, "Chroniques de Ma Vie" Oes
editions Denoel ct Steele, Paris) .
AS Stravinsky has had the great
est influence upon the sensa-
tional developments in modern
music, his views are of the high
est value in presenting the case
for it.
The belief that runs as a theme
throughout the book is in the free
dom of the art of music from any
limiting factors imposed by past
masters. He refers to the time OF
his early studies when he disliked
the study of harmony, but de-
lighted in working out counter
point.
While he believes that a COM
poser should study and know the
music of the present and past
masters, he should do so with
out losing contact with the pres
ent. The composer should master
his own style in composing by eX-
perimental efforts rather than to
be bound by the so-caued funda"
mental rules of form.
scoffing at the need of "inter-
pretation," he says that the melo-
dies, rhythms and instrumental
color combinations in composition
are either good or bad in them
selves. Music is either successful
or not as the sound effects have
been we'll or i'll calculated in
actual performance.

Monkey Wins Liberty
And Deserts Science

NEW YORK, Sept. 26.-One of
the monkeys used for scientific ex-
periments escaped from it's cage
in the Pathological Building at
Bellevue Hospital. Its escape was
discovered by William Pierce, 3
hospital messenger, who lives in
the mems dormitory on the sixth
floor of the building. Waiting for
the elevator, he peered through
a window of the shaft door and
saw the monkey climbing up a
cable.
Armed with poles and canvas
bags, Pierce and Perry Mooney,
the elevator operator, went to the
roof in search of the monkey,
which had fled from the shaft
through an opening in the sky
light. It was nowhere to be seen.

Stravinsky's Views

~ oN ~ IoN ~ W.
StravinSky mentions a wide
circle of friends and acquaint'
ances in the accounts OF his var1'
GUS travels, especially with the
Ballets Russes when Diaghilef
was the director Of the famous
organization. He tells Of the
amusing incident when the
Kaiser ordered his EgyptologistS
to attend the performance Of
the ballet Cleopatra" as a
lesson in their subject; evidently
believing that the music was
revelation of ancient Egyptian
music and the fantastic scenery
by Bakst was an exact historl-
cal reproduction.
Richard Strauss, after hearing
Stravinsky's "Oiseau de teu," told
him, You make mistake IN be-
ginning your music pianissimo.
The audience will not listen to
you. You should take them off
their feet at once with a brilliant
beginning. Then they will follow
you and you can do whatever
you want.
Stravinsky was disappointed
though when Diaghilef asked the
late noted dancer, Nijinski, to
create the choreography of the
"Sacre." He found that while
Nijinski was a great dancer, ne
had little imagination and not
even an elementary knowledge OF
the time value of notes so that it
was necessary for Stravinsky to
teach the dancer the elements Of
time before they could proceed
with the ballet. After 20 years, in
reflecting on how little Nijinski
had assimilated the revolutionary
ideas of Diaghilef, Stravinsky
Sighs, "How far it was from what
had intended"
This present volume ends with
the activities of StravinSky up to
the year 1920. He promises an.
other volume which will cover the
years since 1920.
The theme shown above from
"Scarf Dance" by Cecile Cham
made, is one of the well-known
lighter classics that was written
by one of the few women COM
poSerS.
