 Opinion Is Final Arbitor
 And convention means nothing more or less than the opinion of other people. A good name de- bends on 1t entirely. It ts not what one does but what people think one does that makes fepu- tation. To be at the wrong place with the wrong person, innocent as oil may be, may spoil Q whole life. A whisper, 0 rliTnor, Q chorus. It isn't fair but 1t is 90. Tell them about 1t. Tell them not even to look wrong.
 Unfortunately the boy is less easily smirched than the girl. To warn him of convention may not bear too much weight, but even he has to look out. What will he think when mothers of nice girls prohibit him the house2 How will he feel when nice people leave him out7
 As for the girl, she should be told that everyone" does not see eye for eye with that careless jolly crowd of hers. That she cannot be entirely independent of old Madam Grundy's tongue. She may as well learn young that con- vention still rules reputation. Copyright 1S3S, NEA srevice. Incl

merely in splint or sling, but in ap- paratus to hold the arm abducted and externally rotated and with Q moderate pull maintained on the arm. This must be continued for several days. In this stage cold applications or ice bags on the shoulder give more relief than heat.
 After perhaps four or five days of this. the arm must be paSSively moved by the doctor, and now is the time when diatherfny treat- ment is of great value. Daily the diathermy should be applied, for perhaps half on hour, followed by moderate manipulation of the arm by the doctor. This manipulation is bonud to hurt c bit, but better little discomfort now than c stiff and useless shoulder for life. Day by day the extent of movement (ab- duction and rotation) is increased, until in Q month or more the Shoul- der is nearly as mobile as the well shoulder. Meanwhile the patient carries on regular exercises daily, as instructed.
 Tn neglected cases 1t may be nec- essary to put the patient under anesthesia and carefully free ad- hesions before the physical therapy is instituted.
 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
 Fasting
 Is it scientifically established that intelligent fasting occasionally is conducive toward good health and longevity? What Is considered "overeating"? Eating as much as one wants? (S. O
 Answer--One should fast only for specific purpose under medical au- vice. Overweight is the most com- mon evidence of overeating. One should eat as much as one needs. What one wants and what the body requires are often quite different matters. For example. the common craving for excessive sweets, carbo- hydrates. which are easy to eat even when one doesn't need such food and is only handicapped by it,

Paris (UP)-Among the most striking afternoon dresses seen these days are the black crepes trimmed with luxurious yokes of gold or silver lame. They are worn with wide, ornamental belts and large bishop sleeves. The golden lame yokes are short, with the lame ma chine stitched in close, small rows. Other gowns have deep yokes of plain silver lame which dip lower in back than in front
 Almost all black dresses stress in. terest on coliarettes and belts. Sometimes these are of golden metal in the form of looped fringe. Collarettes and belts often are seen in soft white feathers or again the decoration may be in bead ernbroid- cry.
 Although afternoon dresses usual. iy are seen in black crepe, excep. tons are sometimes made in two- tone color combinations. One of the smartest in this category IS in sage green with Q twisted torsade collar of rust color and twisted belt to match. An equally attrac. tive combination is found in Q deep, bright blue dress trimmed with magenta purple.
 Another black crepe gown shows the color contrast in Q touch of emerald green which Is brought through the front corsage. The same color appears again in a line of emerald green which runs down the length of the Florentine sleeves Into tight wrist cuffs.

The amount of fish taken will include 2oo0 large fish, 5000 sar- dimes, founders. and herring. He will eat about 0000 pounds of pota- toes, i2,000 pounds of other vege. tables, i4,0o0 pounds of fruit and drink 6o0o quarts of milk.
 If he is German, he will probably include i6.000 quarts of beer. He will take in also i2,000 quarts of coffee, 1000 pounds of salt, 5000 eggs, 5000 pounds of sugar, 2000 pounds of cheese, 10000 quarts of water, and . lot of smaller delica- cies.
 This is c tremendous amount of food and nutriment. It is merely an illustration ofNthe inexhaustible op- erations that go on constantly in the human b6dy.
 The average man who weighs from i40 to 160 pounds has 66 pounds of muscle; 2o.2 pounds of internal organs; 27.2 pounds of skin and fat under the skin: 20.i0 pounds of bones; and 3.3 pounds of brain.
 But we should not consider liv- ing tissue in terms of special or. gars. Living tissue consists essen. tially of waer pt,otisrne
 tially of water, proteins, carbohy- drates, fats and mineral salts.
 On this basis, the body will con- tain 90 pounds of water, 30.0 pounds of protein, 1BA pounds of fat, 7.7 pounds of minerals, and i.6 pounds of carbohydrates. The body cells are constantly be- ing broken down and rebuilt to keep the human being in c living and healthfui state. Food must be taken to repair this wastage, co well as for the energy that the hue man being will use.

 Girls who want to look fresh and lovely during the holiday season ought to begin right now to give their figures, hair and faces a little extra attention. Christmas and New Years parties will be twice as much fun if you look slim in your evening gowns and if your skin is fresh and clear.
 First of all, plan to concentrate on your figure. Decide how many pounds you want to lose and where you want to lose them. Then get busy with correct exercises and cut down on fattening foods. Take @ brisk 30.minute walk each day.
 If you suspect that you will need new permanent just before Christmas, start now with recon ditioning treatments of hot oil, massage and brushing. If you get your scalp and hair in healthy con- dition. the wave will be infinitely prettier and will stay in good deal longer.
 If your face looks dingy, better indulge in weekly facial for the next month or two. If you can't get them from 6 professional, learn how to give them to yourself. You can use @ prepared mask concoc- ton or, if you like, any one Of the excellent homemade preparations like egg and oatmeal.

 The man had stopped firing, and dodged down below the window sill, his bulky weapon clutched in his hands, It's muzzle touching her knee. The man blinked and saw her recumbent figure in the dusk.
 "Hey!" he said hoarsely. "Who is it?"
 Jean made no answer, and the man evidently took 1t for granted that she had been killed. He wasted no time on vain regrets, but slowly raised himself to peer out of the window. After a long look, he got to his knee again and raised his weapon to shoot; but be- fore he could press the trigger he unexpectedly spun half around, teetered drunkenly on his knees, and then collapsed on his face. The machine gun lay beneath him; Jean found herself stupidly won- dering if 1t wasn't an awfully ua- comfortable thing to lie on--until, suddenly, she realized that the man was dead.
 With this realization the leth- argy that had held her seemed to fall away. Outside somewhere, was Larry Glenn-and Larry rep- resented safety, rescue a return to the old life which, half an hour ago, seemed forever out of her reach.

 He looked down compassion- ately. How about Sandy" he asked softly. "Sandy's on his way to the hospital. He was shot four times, and" He hesitated, then decided that sine might as well be told bluntly. Hes dying. I doubt if he'll live until he reaches the hospital"
 Jean made no reply, but looked at him soberly.
 DO you still care for him" he asked, putting his arm about her shoulders. Her eyes met his without wavering, and she shook her head.
 "No," she said evenly. T don't think I ever did. 1-oh, Larry, I was just insane, that's all-in- sane. r."
 She broke of abruptly, then added "of course, I-Larry, it's a shock to know that he's dying. Don't think I'm heartless. But the man I thought I cared for he died long before the fighting
 "Ail over it?' said Larry.
 "Yes," she said. If I can ever forget what Q fool was"
 Never mind about that" said Larry. T blame myself. l should have warned you, long ago.
 You tried to, but I wouldn't listen." she said.
 T could have made you listen" he said. Don't blame yourself too much. Blame me, too"
 He helped her into the car, shut the door and went around to take his place behind the wheel.
 Now we'll highball for Dover" he said. "Your fathers there waiting for you, and you'll have c good long rest, and then"
 And then," he said, smiling in the darkness. T think know c young man who'll be only too glad to help you try to forget about the whole business"
 She stared ahead ct the light of the auto lamps on the leafy road. "What do you mean?" she asked in c tired voice.
 Bobby Wallace, of course"
 She shook her head slowly. No. I've forfeited any claim I ever had on Bobby"
 Larry reached down and took her hand.
 "Tell me this, Jean," he said quietly. DO you love Bobby7"
 The tears sine had ben unable too shed earlier that night came, now, in Q binding torrent. Through them, ct last, he heard her cry despairingiy, "oh, Larry, of course do. But he'll never want to see me again = end I'll never be able to look at him in the face"
