Ten passengers rode out of Ell

In fact, satisfied grins spread

Needless Pain

AS long as there are women
enduring nine months OF discom-
fort, pain and mental anguish
before their babies come, as long
as there are women returning
from hospitals with their babies
to take up a weary, dragged-out,
nervously fretful existence, 1t
cannot be said too often that
these things need not be-not IN
the vast majority of cases.
BY all means let us pay a
Mothers Day tribute OF pity
and sympathy to the long,sut'
fering mothers of yesterday. BuC
if we want to make the day both
cheerful and constructive, let US
see clearly and state emphau.
cally that mothers of today and
tomorrow must come out OF the
"long-suffering" class. They
must no longer be martyrs and
victims, either of community
neglect or of their own ignorance
and carelessness.
why not make Mothers Day
a New Years Day for mother
hood and babyhood-the begin
ming of a new year for both?
During that year there are at
least three campaigns OF prac.
tical usefulness which can be
conducted to promote the well
fare of mothers and babes.

in the kitchen window will
bring above ground the tiny
plants of cabbage, lettuce, beets

Anyone can have q little cold
frame to receive the seedlings

Practical Plans

First, each community can
make a careful appraisal OF It's
own resources in handling the
problem of maternal welfare. II
these resources are not adequate
they can be made so.
Second, women themselves
can be trained to demand and
make use of the facilities avail
able for their care-and too
often neglected by those who
should be beneficiaries.
@Third, men can make ma
ternal and child welfare their
own battle.
How to advance on these three
fronts will be discussed in fol-
lowing articles.

Beauty
Prevent Skin
Blen7isheS
By JULIET SHELBY

Definitely I possess a penchant
for choosing medicated cosmetics
that just dress up the skin and
add a little allure.
To me it seems far more i'm,
portant that girls and women
should learn to keep their health
and, incidentally, their youth
and to be familiar with beauty
aids that either cure or prevent
blemishes, than it is for them to
know about the latest shade OF
lipstick or eyeshadow.
You see, the dreSs-up cosmetics
are of little use if your skin is
no. healthy or if your eyes lack
the sparkle of normal vitality.
And if your skin is blemiShed,
even slightly so, you should get
at the root of the evil!

In Most COLOrs

Fabrics for window treatments,
for slip covers and upholstery
are among the most remarkable
in their progress and improve
ment. They are now nearly
all sanforized, which means
they will not shrink, they are
sun proof and color fast. And
every possible design and color
is available. CottonS are now
just about as good looking as
woolen materials or any others.
There are marvellous new
glass curtains, sheer or coarse,
as you prefer, and cotton
makes most of them. There's
a wealth of chintz, heavy fab
RIGS, and so on. And the up
holstery fabrics are quite sub
stantial too, and in excellent
selection.
The photograph on this page
today gives good idea OF how
well a room can be decorated
in cottons, and an exceedingly
smart room. It happens to be
on display in 2, downtown store,
but similar arrangement
could be made in your own
home at small cost, and in
almost any bedroom.
Brown and white is the color
scheme, with paper of a creamy
tone, printed in brown. The bed
spread and window draperies
are of brown goazed chintz
dotted in white, and ruffled
In white too. The glass curtains
are of white marquisette, again
ruffled. Cotton hooked rugs
are used on the floors to COM
plete the entirely cotton scheme.
The furniture is maple.

Chill winds to make my fever's

Bright rainbow banners for the

Serious Menace

When a mother dies unneces'
sarily at the time of her child S
birth, the pity and peril OF the
little baby's position are OBJ
Vious.
But there is another less spec
tacular yet almost equally serl'
Gus menace to babyhood which
every thoughtful woman may
well stop to consider on Moth
ers' Day. For that matter,
every person who loves babies
and every citizen interested in
child welfare should realize how
it is endangered when women,
because of improper or made
ouate care before, during or
after childbirth are rendered un"
fit to perform properly their
whole duty of motherhood.
1--WE never been well since
the baby was bOrn!"
How tragically often that SEN
tence is uttered, and what vistas
of pain and unhappiness for
baby and mother are opened up
by the words!
Yet they ought not to be
twisted into alarmist propaganda
against motherhood, because
nine times out of ten, they are
the lament for misfortune that
i, avoidable and should be
avoided.
Most women. if proper precau,
tions are taken, can be as well
and strong after their children
are born as before. Should semi
invalidism ensue instead, neither
mother nor baby gets a square
deal from life,

ian exceptions, you will find
that all cotton articles and ma
terials are not only practical,
but that they have been styled"
in the past few years so that
they are beautiful and smart,
too. And some of the things that
were formerly just beautiful
have been put to further use,
have been made usable so that
they, too, fall into the practical
class.

She Is Worth

By BEATRICE FAIRFAX

Famous Authority on Love and

Dear Miss Fairfax:
She is II years old, working,
and is the main support of
her family. I asked her to go
STEADY" with me for two
months, and if she hasn't
grown fond of me at the end
of that time, we could break up.
She told me that her mother
does not approve of her going

time, as she's too young. Shall

months have expired?
have a steady job, and am
% years old. Does the girl
really care for me, or is she just
"stalling?" M. P.
Any girl Of II who is the
mainstay of a family could
hardly consider boy seriously
unless she decided to leave her
family flat.
It's a pretty heroic type of
girl who acts as "the man Of
the family" at this tender age,
and if you're seriously in love
with her, she seems well worth
waiting for.
Meantime, why don't you two
continue as good pals?
She Danced With Stranger
Dear Miss Fairfax:
I've been going with a girl for
three years, and we're engaged.
The other night we went to a
ball with a couple of friends.
Everything was going fine till
my girl disappeared. I asked
several girls to dance, but they
all turned me down.
Later I found my girl had
been dancing with a strange fell
low, to which I naturally OBJ
jected. would not have minded
if she had danced with one of
her own friends. is.
While it is not in the best pos
sible taste for an engaged girl to
dance with an utter stranger.
and 1 take it you mean a man to
whom she was not properly in
troduced, I believe I'd condone
the offense, if it hasn't ap-
peared before.
