But it dazzles with diamonds una
ware
And rainbows out at play,
/ Too soon the sun unfurls
Gold banners in the west;
The diamond pendants pale to
pearls,
The flying shadows rest.
And the fair young moon in joy
Comes flushing up the sky,
To find our world Christmas toy
Carven in ivory.
MOTHERS LOVE
Author Unknown
Her love is like an island
In life's ocean, vast and wide,
A peaceful, quiet shelter
From the wind, and rain, and tide.
'Tis bound on the north by Hope,
By Patience on the west,
By tender Counsel on the south.
And on the east by Rest.
Above it like a beacon light
Shine faith. and truth, and prayer;
And through the changing scenes of
life.
l find a haven there.

WALKER GAINS
IN RACE FOR
POSTMASTER

Appointment of Curtis Walker,
prominent and active Democrat,
as washington postmaster to sue
ceed Postmaster Mooney, whose
tenure of office expires in Febru-
ary, loomed high on the political
horizon today as Democratic clubs
and organizations rallied to his
support.
Democratic support has not been
dedicated exclusively to Walker in
the race for the postmastership,
however.
Insistent that a Washingtonian
be appointed to the post, District
Democratic leaders some time ago
suggested the name of Malcolm S.
McConihe to Postmaster General
Farley. McConihe, president OF a
real estate firm. has been recon-
mended by virtue of his activi-
ties in swinging District absentee
voters into the Roosevelt column
In 1882.
Another potential candidate is
Rowland Marshall, Washington
insurance man.
Walker is indorsed by Senators
Millard Tydings and William l..
Radcliffe and Representative
Davis Lewis. all Maryland legiS-
1otorc Tho Democra tic State
central committee, of which
Walker is chairman, today indi-
Gated its support for him. The
Democratic Club of Chevy Chase,
of which Walker is president,
also favorS his candidacy.
Walkers Maryland supporters
point out that although he is a
resident of Chevy Chase, Md,
he is eligible for the appoint
ment because Chevy Chase is in
the Washington postal area.

ProphyIaxis And AnnphyIaxIs

PrOphyIaxis And AnaphyIaxis Most lnymen know more or less dehnitclty what prophylaxis and | prophylactic mean. Pro means for, | before, in behalf Of, and phyla means guard. Phophylaxis is pre- vcntion of disease; q prophylactic | being an agent which prevents dis case. 1 am giving our medical in- | depreciation. Of course prophylax- Is may apply to prevention of other things as well as disease. Then the dentors use the term in n still moro special sense, to signify q surface cleaning of the teeth. Anaphlaxis Is not 50 familiar. 1t means the opposite, increased sus- ceptibility. Anaphylaxis is the op- positc of immunity. As physicians use this term 1t applies to tho pe- culiar hypcrsensitiveness or sus- ccptibility to the effects o fany for- oign protein substance introduced into the body by other route than normal digestion.

 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
 Appendicitis
 have lived in this small town (pOpulation 44O) just a year and In that time there have been four cases of appendicitis. People say 1t is from the very hard water. Can you suggest anything to put in the water or anything to take to pre- vent this? (S. M.)
 Answer--So far as we know, the hardness of water never causes any Injury to health, as long as the taste of the water is satisfactory. l know of no means of preventing appendicitis. It would be beneficial to make n practice of eating some plain wheat every day. either raw, or run through the coffee mill and cooked as porridge, cooked q short time or q long time. as you prefer.

PERSONAL CONFLICT UPsETS
 HOME

Conflicts wear us out. They wear
 children out. The everlasting war
 between what we want and what
 we have, choosing between two
 duties, having to wear down an
 urge to be one thing while life
 points a relentIess finger at an. other--all these fights with our- selves are ruinous.
 We say we won't go back to the
 farms our grandparents lived on or the Slavish work they endured. We women wouldn't go through the daily routine that bent shoul- ders, twisted hands and streaked
 hair with gray long before it's day. But I had q lot of country reln- lives, and as look back on those
 old days. one thing registers in memory. The calmness of their features. the quiet peace of their eyes, and their good humor. And remember tatting and knitting, too, balls of sewcd rags for rugs,
 and neighbors driving in for calls. Life and Work Sufficcd. No, 1t was not aii potato peel- | thrashers. There was time for re- laxing in spite of all opinion to the contrary. Time for reading too. It's too bad that our young mothers today could not have had a peep into ono of the old fash- toned farm homes. Not that the modern farm is not quiet and peaceful, but the point | ig that those others had little but life and work itself. no way to | travel, to absorb, to be entertained through the air, to get all sorts of bright magazines, or mail-order
 service to make shopping easy. Yet they were content.
 One should not say yet" It
 was because of 1t all they were
 content, I think. And they did nos deteriorate or become sodden ana coarse. When I want a lesson in real refinement. think of my great. .grandmother at eighty out in Q lonely brick farmhouse miles from anywhere, dressed each day after. lunch, regularly, in slate gray silk. black lase cap and lace apron. Her daughters dressed too' have the woven coverlet stsH, A beauty, made by her as . young mother in which is woven, "SALI- MA GILLELAND-PEACE AND PLENTY-1S46."
 Conflict Was LAcklnB. Peace and Plenty.
 It was hundred-acre rarm with no oil or coal or gas stations
 or even q dairy herd. Just farm. The children grew up with the most wonderful dispositions. NO conflicts there to wear them out.
 Today there Is too much. TO" days children are worn out, par" ticularly the city children.
 Two truths, think, should pc borne in on the parents Of little families that seem to me to DC Fundamental to real happiness. One is q quiet household. The other, regular routine in wnlcn
 each one knows each day just about what the hour will bring
 time for duty, time for play. Not too much outside world interfer- ing. Not too many choices to make' or wants to be filled.
 We should make a choice TOT
 our way of life and then stick 10
 it without grieving. There are al"
 ways some ahead. of Us there ai-
 ways will be. Jealousy and hate quickly ruin. Conflict undermines | tempers and patience.
 Home should be q peaceful place and the. family unit supreme. Copyright 1894, NEA Service lnc'

 Of course, very few women can wear their hair perfectly straight. Nearly everyone needs il sngGcs- ton of q wave or q hint of q curl to soften the features and add Il certain touch of fcmininity. If you arc lucky enough to look well with your hair straight, by all means wear it that way. If not, get some little curling gadgets to use at home.
 If you want to Rarnish your straight coiffurc with n few wavy bangs, buy two or three metal curlers. dampcn your hair and put them on while you're dressing. If you want Il row of curls across the back of your neck. roll the ends over curriers'. Sculptured curls can be wound around fing- CT, pressed flat against the back of the head and clipped in place with special curl clips.
 Here's coiffure that's easy 10 fix. Comb your hair straight back from the forehead. Then, placing the comb in front of the right ear. pull II upward NO the side section of hair overlapB the scc- ton you've lust cOmbcd straight back. Do the same on the left side.

The walls were panellcd in pol lBhed oak and the ceiling bcamed In heavy timbcrs in the natural color, highly waxcd. The windows were draped in pumpkin colored linen, striped in red.
