Style Chats
BY MARY FENTREsS

Paris-It isn't as much fun to be royal bride as many people might suppose, for every single article in the trousseau of Lady Alice Scott. who is soon to become the Duchess of Gloucester, must be approved by Queen Mary of England. That means that each design submitted by Norman Hartnell, young Lon- don designer, must bear the stamp of royal approval.
 Fortunately Lady Alice has sim- pie tastes and does not like low backed evening dresses, split skirts or caught-up drapery which dis plays the leg. Since her tastes are most conventional, 1t is supposed that her trousseau will include rich and gorgeous materials made up ir1- to rather conservative styles.
 Among the designs submitted is one for a dinner dress in hydran- gea pink combined with blue. Since this combination of colors is 8 fa- vorite of Queen Mary, it is sup posed that this gown will be in- cluded in the royal trousseau.
 This dinner gown has long, fitted sleeves which are trimmed with band of chinchilla dyed fox which runs up the sleeves from the wrist to the elbow. The bodice is draped and drawn. into bands of shirring at the shoulder. The waist is trim- med with sash of pink lined in hydrangea blue as well as large bunch of pink violets. The skirt is slimly fitted to the knees, then flares out to the hem, where it is caught under the ends of the pink and blue sash.

 CHILDREN

Nothing is so valuable in hand ling children as taking advantage of the psychological moment. those brief fleeting seconds when the mind is receptive.
 It is my firm belief that any child of any age normally devel- oped could be saved and made into 8 first-rate citizen if we knew just when he is psychologically ripe for persuasion. But as rule it is just the reverse.
 Take, for example. the boy who has stolen apples.
 The very first thing he does is to excuse his action to himsesg He finds every sort of reason why he has a right to the fruit.
 The next thing, invariably, is to become indignant at the law supposed to restrain him. This passes from abstract to concrete against the person or persons who made the law, and those who up- hold it, including his parents.
 Set Mind Against Discipline
 No child ever did anything wrong without setting his mind in favor of himself and against his preceptors. Therefore scolding or any form of, punishment at this de- fensive time is not only likely to be useless but to deepen his private sense of outrage. In brief it may make him worse and set his deter imitation to repeat 1t.
 All this, naturally, is theory, and like all theory subject to change. But too, it holds basic truth that should not be disre- garded.
 am no advocate of continually delayed punishment. But neither do I think it sensible to whip or scold eternally while the offender is practically still red-handed. No matter what he has done, stolen apples, told a lie, kicked the cat or deliberately smashed a win: dow, the wall of self defense is there and while it is there he is bound to consider punishment an outrage.
 Then there is the difference in children. Some children are thor oughly ashamed of themselves the minute they misbehave. But they would rather die almost than ad- init it even to themselves. This per- feet hysteria of shame builds al- most the same wall that the other does, because the mind turned in on itself won't listen. It couldn't stand the agony of listening anyway.
 Parent Must Study Child
 If the parent studies the child the motives behind conduct anc the circumstances of the offense, ht will learn when it is best to wait When the offense is past long enough for Bill or Bob to cool of when he is in 8 mood to listen tc the lecture and let it soak in, ther he is likely to be more reasonable and to sec another side other thar his own.
 His psychological moment = tn. moment when his mind is open anc not closed by hySterical emotion o. one sort or another.
 | The matter of delayed restitution or instantaneous retribution is { serious one. It is a wise parent wh, can decide.

THE INCREASING SHORTAGE
 OF VITAMINS

Filler of the soil, man with the. hoe, rustic, country pumpkin, hay-- seed, hick, farmer, and even the traditional Si Simpkins of the car toonist connoteS lack of wit. With modern rapid transit, good roads, automobiles, telephones, radio and rural coverage by newspapers, agri- culture has lost the old bucolic touch which served so wei flor anecdotes. Today the credulous, gullible, unsophisticated souls hail from the city.
 In several years past, according to federal statistics, there has been a gradual decrease (about per cent a year) in the per capita consump- tion of cereals in America, and a gradual increase, in the per capita consumption of sugar.
 Now sugar is an excellent food. None better. I have always been an earnest booster for plenty of sugar.. especially for growing children, who play hard and require plenty of energy in form quickly avail able. But I know refined white sugar is not an adequate food in it. self, although there is no other food one can take in comparable quantity which will provide the call ories, the energy, the warmth, the sustenance, the refreshment from fatigue that sugar provides.
 Cereals, especially wheat, provide not only carbohydrate (starch) but also fat or oil and protein or nitro genous food material. Wheat in ad- dition provides a fair amount of calcium (lirne), a large amount of phosphorus, and a fair amount of iron-that is, plain undoctored wheat. But the particular point l want to emphasize is that wheat provides also a large amount of vitamins B and G together with some E and A. Other cereals not much refined, such as rolled oats or green or parched corn, provide the same vitamins, but wheat is the cereal most universally relied on as 8 staple in the diet. a
 If we consume less cereal, less wheat, we are likely to get less vita min, since bread and other wheat products constitute such large part of our daily food.
 If we substitute sugar as a car bohydrate food for wheat or wheat products, the sugar will provide the immediate fuel for muscle energy, work, play, the quick relief for fati- gue, and all that, but it does not provide the vitamins which are es- sential to maintain good health, functional efficiency.
 Lay in a peck or bushel of wheat and see for yourself how good it is to eat. Should be 8 hand grist mill in every kitchen to grind wheat, peanuts, corn, soy beans etc.. these being the essentials of the most appetizing and the most healthful and economical dishes you can serve the kids or the king him. self.

CHAPTER xxv11r

The chatter of gunfire in the street jared sharply on the ears of the people inside the bank. To the : victims, standing helplessly by the wall with upraised hands, it brought a sudden stab of hope; to the gum 7. men it sounded the imperative need for hurry.
 The red-haired man prodded the back of the trembling clerk with his automatic.
 Come on, dopey!" he snarled. 'Get goin' or I'll plug you. Hurry!"
 They had finished with the safe and the cage in which MT. Hobart lay in a grotesque sprawl on the floor; now they were in the other cage, and the clerk was taking bills from the cash drawer - there weren't many, but this fed-haired man believed in being thorough = and stuffed them into the flour sack. At last it was finished.
 The clerk turned to face the ban dit. The bandit coolly took the sack with one hand, swung the gun against thee lerk's left temple with 8 force that knocked him senseless, and ran out into the lobby.
 Come on, Wingy," he yelled. 6. got to step on it!"
 He opened the door and came out on the steps just as the village po- liceman crossed the street 50 yards away. The policeman was running and putting heavily, for he was a stout, middle-aged chap, unused to heavy exercise - and he was raising his revolver.
 On the steps stood the sandy haired chap they called Oklahoma. He was swaying slightly, and his face was pale beneath its tan, and blood had trickled down his body, beneath his clothes, and made his right foot feel sickeningly wet and warm; and he held his sub-machine gun at his waist and peered grim ly up at the window from which Buddy McGinnis had shot him.
 He did not see the approaching policeman, but the red-haired man did; and he stood there, his right arm extended, and fired three shots After each shot the kick of the heavy automatic jerked his hand in the air, and he brought it down with what seemed to be great de- liberation and fired again. The po- liceman seemed to stumble as he came up over the curb. and his

Artificial eyebrows that you shape and trim to suit yourself and paste on over your own are the latest in- novation of the beauty industry. A special boon to the girl with ex- tremely thin, uninteresting brows, these are easy to use and quite flat- tering.
 They come in various shades of brown as well as black, and are made from real hair. When you get up in the morning, simply moisten the back of each brow which you have clipped to fit the shape of your natural brow arch and paste them on.T hey won't slide out of place and can be re- moved and washed as often as you like. One pair should last several weeks.
 Whether you use artificial brows or not, remember that too thin, nar- row eyebrows no longer are fashion able. It's smart to have quite heavy ones. Tweeze only the hairs that grow across the bridge of your nose and down on the lids. In other words, keep the natural curves neat and trim, but don't try to change them by removing hairs here and there.
 Artificial eyelashes still are worn for evening by a good many won- en. These come in strips, to be past ed on just above your own, or sepa- rately with blue on the ip of each hair. You rnoisten the tip and paste the longer artificial lashes between the natural hairs.
 If you want your eyelashes to curl, put bit of vaseline on them night and morning and frush up- ward with a little mascara brush. If you want to try one of the pat ented metal eyelash curlers, make sure that the edges of it are finish ed with tiny rubber pads. These pre- vent the hairs from breaking when you squeeze the handles together. NEXT: Don't OyerdO beauty.

 He brooded over this for a mo- ment. Then he looked up sudden ly.
 'Listen," he said, 1T tell you what: put in call for the Depart ment of Justice men in Dover. You're Federal Reserve bank. aren't you? Well, robbery of a Federal Reserve bank is federal offense. Get the government men busy on it."

 Larry had just got back from lunch when the call came in. It had been quiet day, and the sunlight on the pavement was be- guilling; so much so that it made him think of the baseball park, and he was just reviewing the current state of affairs in his mind, to see whether he would be justified in "sneaking off to the ball game" when his telephone bell tinkled.
 "Maplehurst is calling. Will you hold the wire?" said the operator. He waited; then came MT. Dunn's voice, to tell him about the rob- bery.
 Thoughts of the ball game fled from Larry's brain = not to re-en- ter it until many an eventful day had passed. He drew a scratch pad over to him and made notes as, with swift questions, he got from MT. Dunn the salient fea- lures of the case. At last he hung up, pushed has chair back, and strode to the next room. Agents Tony LaRocco and Al Peters looked up expectantly.
 : Get your hats said Larry. Were taking a run down to Ma plehurst. Looks like Red Jackson has blown himself to another bank robbery"

Daytona Beach, Fla, March 20.- (UP)-It is the wind and the tides not Sir Malcolm Campbell, who are now racing against time.
 With the Briton's passage. for home booked, and Bluebird sur- rounded by the big wooden cratel which will carry her back to Eng land, nature finally had a change of heart, and is working day and night to prepare 3O0-mile-an- hour beach.
 Today it was fifty-fifty, a flip of the coin, whether or not the days would run out before the fickle old lady, who pulls the strings on the clements, had time to pack the sands.
 For six weeks Campbell stood by, awaiting natures pleasure, and for six weeks she tantaliZed him with vagrant winds and a fickle surf. Finally, convinced she was heartless and was determined not to give him the racing strip he wanted, Campbell decided to pack 1t up."
 He wired New York for passage on the Berengaria.
 "We can't wait forever" he said, land it looks like that's what we'd have to do to get a perfect beach. So let's be done with it."
 No sooner had Campbell given marching orders than nature re- tented. The wind, which had been blowing out the south, swung to the northeast, the proper place. The sea, almost dead calm for days, ruffled its waters, and then whip ped by the northeast wind, began sending in the long. curling, swish ing rollers that heal the bruised sands.
 It was if nature had regretted her obstinacy, and had set her mind on giving the stout little Britisher what he wanted-eleven miles of hammered highway on which to give Bluebipd the gun.
 Today it seemed nature might have time to squeeze in her apology. The beach, a dismal sweep of wrinkles and soft sand two days ago, was, to the eye at least, clean and hard. The treacherous bumps just south of the measured mile were gone, as were the undulations near the south tip of the course. It was so good, in fact, that Campbell. after a 90-mile an hour ride over it in his heavy sedan, said there was possibility that low tide at |2 p. rn., would find him out for test run.

"Id like one more ride for ad- justments," he said, "for if do get the perfect beach on Thursday or Friday, want nothing but per- lection. Bluebird's nearly perfect now, but a trial at about 150, with out the timing traps or flags, would enable me to put the well-nigh per- feet machine on the beach. And you know, we are frightfully keen about that 300 mph, what time we'll have the night we make it." Campbell very nearly went for 8 trial run yesterday, but decided to wait when he gave second thought to his tires. He has only "A racing cords left-just enough for two round trips. He will use twelve on his next trial run, sav- ing the final dozen for the perfect beach nature is trying to ready.

GOOD GOLF
 BiH KHsh
By BILL KLIsH

The average golfer is al- ways trying to correct some fault by changing swing, stance or grip. First of all, the golfer should find out how the stroke should be played, and then start work ing on that basis. Sometimes one fault can be corrected by another; but that is confus- ing because in time that fault also will have to be corrected and before he realizes it the golfer will find that his game is nothing but faults.
 There are certain funda- mentals that have to be worked on and if learned pro- perly there will be few faults and the golfer will always have something to work on.
 All good swings are not alike but the fundamentals are the same. It would pay the average golfer to take a few lessons from a 'profes- sional and get started on the right track.
 I will give you an example. First of all is your balance, feet about twenty inches apart with the weight slightly more on the right foot and hit with the club head, not with the body. When you i drive a nail you don't think about the hands, you think about the head of the nail and the head of the hammer. Your hands and wrists guide the hammer, but it's the ham, mer that does the hitting. Your mind is also on the head of the hammer, not on the action of your wrists and hands.
 Keep this in mind-picture the head of the hammer as your clubhead and you have a fine fundamental to work on improved a hundred per cent. and you will find your golf

UNsUNG HERO

An unsung hero of major league baseball diamonds is E. c. Steffen, St. Louis mer- chant.
 Steffen, well-to-do fur dealer holds the record of being a member of two teams, the St. Louis Cardinals and the St. Louis Browns, but his name never has appeared in an off, cial box score nor does he re- ceive a cent of salary for per- forming yeoman duty on the pitching mound.
 Steffen's boyhoOd ambition was to be a big league pitch CT, but he never made the grade. Instead he entered the fur business and became suc- cessful. His love for baseball, however, did not die out.
 So, daily at 12:S0 p. m., he has his chauffeur drive him to Sportsman Park. When the Cardinals are at home, he wears Red Bird uniform. When the Browns are here. he wears their official regalia.
 For 30 minutes each day, ,Steffen pitches in batting prac- tice. Then he. takes turn in the field to shag flies.
 Steffen takes his daily exer- else on the ball field in lieu Of other sports,X golf or tennis. He once played with Ml- waukee in the American Asso- citation, but his arm went bad and he never realized his ambition of becoming a major league hurler.
