PHYLLIS WHEATLEY OFFERS
PROGRAM

The Boys Council of Phyllis
Wheatley House is offering to the
public a three-star program for
entertainment. The first event to
be given will take place Friday,
Dec. Is. Because of the proverbial
superstitious character of that
date, two mystery plays are to be
given by the Boys Drama club.
Judging from the names of the
plays, "Spooky Cabin" and
Haunted House," and the mys-
ferrous manner in which rehearsals
are conducted, the audience is due
for an evening of thrills. The audi
forum is being fitted with new
doors which will open automatical-
ly, enabling those persons, fright
ened by the action, to leave the
place without doing any damage.
A dance will follow the perform
ance.
On Monday, Dec. %, two basket
ball games will be played. One
will find the Southside Lancers,
with the Rays and the Hughes
starring, pitted against Wheatley's
Illicits. Halle @. Brown will fur
nish the opposition to Wheatley's
Cardinals that night. A dance will
also be held that night.
For one of the first big events
of the New Year, an amateur con-
test, a la Noble Sissle, will take
place, Friday, January 10, 1886.
These features cost 15c per per-
son, but season ticket is offered,
permitting the purchaser to at
tend all three of the events for
the small sum of 30c, or a saving
of &c per event. A contest is being
waged among the individual clubs
to see which can sell the most
tickets. A unique thermometer in
the foyer of Wheatley indicates
which club is in the lead.

RAIL FINANCING
PROBE URGED

Charles A. Beard, New England
economist, yesterday urged the
Senate Interstate Commerce Com
mittee to adopt the Wheeler reso-
luton for an investigation of rail
road financing.
New York banks are still con-
trolling a great many lines in.
cluding the Van Swerigen group,
said Beard, despite the law pro.
hibiting banks interested in rail
roads from having directors on
their boards.
He described the resolution as
one of the greatest constructive
efforts of the depression period" j."
adding:
"ThiS resolution and the in
quiry for which it calls are
means for making those who
have wrOnged the railroads and
railroad investors pay back mil
lions which they got wrongfully
out Of the pockets of the Ameri-
can investing public.
ut is q means for building q
sound foundation for the future,
so that the railroads will be
run as q railroad induStry-nOt
as an adjunct Of Wall Street;
so that they will be encouraged
in competitiOn-not in stock
market speculation; so that
they will serve first the public
interest, be fair to the employees,
and pay a decent return to their
investors"
Beard said the "real control
Of the large Van Sweringen lines
was in the hands of j. P. Morgan
and Company and a New York
banking syndicate formed by that
company.

Rule Calls Stop
Sale Guarantee

The committee on arrangements
Of the New York Stock Exchange
has announced new rule to gov
ern sales Of stock which have been
stopped. The rule specifies that
a stop by a member constitutes
a guarantee Of the purchase or
sale by him of the stock at that
price or it's equivalent.
Consequently if a stopped order
is executed at a less favorable
price the member who agreed to
stop the stock is liable for an
adjustment for the difference be.
tween the two prices.
The Washington times., 1935-03-21

and many wants are unsatisfied.
At such times, theorists arise
who assert that the cause of the
trouble lies in under consump.
tion.
So they attack saving, and adj
vocate spending. They say, "let
us create purchasing power" so
that the people may spend and
consume. They propose work
relief" and social planning or
public works. They generally get
around to financing their pur.
chasing power schemes by issuing
paper money.
Always, they are strong for
reform" which center on "shar- g.
ing wealth"-which means tax.
ing it away from those who
have, and giving to those who
haven't.
So it was with Sismondi in
1919. So it is with this New
Dealers, Longs, and COughIins
today.
The sad part is that at such
times we do need relief" The
needy have to be fed and clothed.
People do have to consume in
order to live.
During the emergency, people of
means do have to help, and the
government has to raise taxes to
provide the organized relief which
social justice requires.
This makes the schemes Of these
crack pot reformers seem plausible
at the moment.
But such emergencies are temp
orary. We are not going to live
in emergencies forever. Nor should
we revolutionize government and
economic life, as though We were
always going to have people con-
suming without producing-lving
off the accumulated wealth of
other people.
Obviously, we can't live on the
accumulated wealth of others
very long. It is income from pro-
duction that we must count upon.
Don't you see that "share
our wealth" means "share other
peoples wealth?" 1t isn't "Our"
wealth. And if we go ahead to
make it impossible for shrewd
and energetic individuals to ac-
cumuIate wealth, we will kill
all wealth, including our own?
"DOn't you see that wealth"
is not "income?" Unless wealth
is productivity used, income
soon ceases-incIuding the in
come of employed labOrers.

Divided authority never helps in the
training OF children. Parents are part
ners in q great undertaking. 1t is well
to pull together. Once the child sees
that they agree, he will understand
and shape his conduct accordingly.
It takes both parents to rear child.
Father and mother must put aside
their differences, forget their whims,
opinions, tastes. They should pool the
best they have for the childs sake.
They should agree on few funda-
mental principles and follow them.
No pickering in the child's presence.
Show q united front. Argue it out
privately, come to q decision. and let
the one who must surrender his opin-
ion do 50 gracefully. Agree on the
privileges to be extended to the child.
Agree to back each others disciplinary
measures. Only one person is to give
orders at one time. Each Is to assume
some responsibility and carry it fully.
In all things parents should be loyal
to each other. That's one way OF
keeping faith with the child.
Children are quick to sense q diff
ference between their parents, and
when there is a difference they lose
the sense of security to which they are
entitled. Children cannot thrive un-
less there is cooperation and under
standing between their parents.

Astringent
Not Always
Beneficial
Diagnosis Of Skin
Should be Made to
Determine its Needs.
BY ELSIE PIERCE.

T HAVE a very typical letter before
me. The writer decries the fact
that she has been using aStringents
for some time now and the shine on
her face hasn't been toned down
one bit Furthermore, she cannot
quite understand why her skin should
feel so drawn and irritated after the
use of an astringent or even soap and
water and why the shine should con-
tinue. 1T isn't a really moist shine" ="
she continues, but a harsh shine"
One Of the reasons why so many
women. like the writer of the above
mentioned letter. fail to get the maxi
mum results out of their treatments
Is the fact that they cannot diagnose
their own compilations. Shine to most
women means oiliness. Oiliness calls
for astringents. So they use astrin-
gents to counteract the shine.
As q matter of fact the extremely
dry skin tends to shine too. But 1t
is q very different sort Of shine from
that which accompanies the oily skin.
Unless the skin actually looks and
feels oily and has q moist ShinineSS,
don't treat it to astringents. And un-
less you are quite certain as to the
type of complexion you have you bet
ter consult with a specialist who
knows before you attempt to treat 1t.
The most puzzling type of skin is
the one that presents combination
Of symptoms. The nose, chin and fore
head may be oily and the cheeks and
the tissues around the eyes quite dry.
What to do? Obviously the same
treatment will not answer for the
oily as for the dry portions. The
cheeks need cream, the oily sections
need drying tonics. The entire sys-
tenn needs exercise, stimulation to
normalize the circulation and the
functioning OF the skin.
The majority of skins. today are in
clined to be dry. But q great many
present puzzling symptoms like the
combination skin or the extremely
dry skin that shines from overdryness.
Learn to recognize your type Of
skin. The dry type is likely to feel
dry. drawn and irritated. particularly
after exposure to the cold. Extremes
In temperature irritate the dry skin
more than any other type, for it is
very sensitive to heat or cold. The
dry skin becomes rough and .scaly at
the slightest provocation. powder
flakes of or sticks" in patches.
Three -fourths Of the success Of
complexion treatments depend upon
Cd knowing the exact type Of skin
that Is yours, (2) knowing the type OF
corrective preparations needed and
90 using these preparations correctly.
Perseverance makes up the last
fourth. There you have q perfect
formula for skin beauty. All that
providing that you are doing the right
thing by the machine We call our
bodies. Remember that health Is the
foundation of all beauty. Remember
that the skin may be dry from lack
Of food, lack Of water, fresh air exer-
else. etc.

President in a formal and public cere-
mony!
Since then cheese manufacture In .
the United States has come long
way Many Of the imported specially
cheeses are quite successfully imi-
tated-thereby allowing the people
here to enjoy their approximate flavor
at infinitely less cost. The tremen-
dous number of commercial cheese
spreads" has grown steadily during the
past few years, and the markets now
are stocked with an almost endless
variety-all neatly packaged. rindless
and ready to serve. Cheese comes
grated. in shaker boxes and little bags
for culinary uses, and every effort Is
made to supply the housewives with
this dairy product in its most con-
venient and labor-saving form.
THERE are so many ways to use
cheese in the menu that 1t Is
really hopeless to try and give many
recipes. Cheese "aS is" cheese in

nish for soups, with maccaroni-the
list is a long one. But here is one

about 80 to 40 minutes until the
