ings. During the depression Of 1921
q group Of 10 important economists
issued q statement that the United
States faced 30-year period of sub
normal business and serious economic
consequences. My point is not that
there was no basis of truth In such
predictions, but that q wholly tnac-
curate and lop-sided picture was pre-
sented.
Few Of us in our busy daily activi-
ties recognize or comprehend the
magnitude of the economic and social
problems which have faced this Ma
ton during the past two years. Very
frankly, my friends, the most I'M
pressiye deduction that can be made
Is that 1t is remarkable, In the face
Of such conditions, that we could
even make the progress that we
have. Who can say that the best that
could possibly be done in the face
Of such monumental problems has
not been done? We do know that
chaos was averted. We do know that
this Nation in major fundamental
economic respects Is in q thoroughly
sound and healthy condition. 1t thus

disease what the doctor thought of
his case, answered: II have seen pa

probably could not find q more flag
rant psychological mistake on the
part Of Q doctor. We all observe
many similar instances as related to
economic recovery. The defeatist at
titude has repeated itself in pre-
cisely the same manner throughout
history. Such defeatism today takes
the form either Of a failure to take
the full facts into consideration or
the willful Misrepresentation of true
conditions in all of their aspects for
the purpose Of obstruction or partisan
advantages.
Recalls DQleful Warning.
There are many who would have
us believe that conditions today are
as dire as they were represented to be
in Harper's Weekly Of October 10,
1857, in an analysis which said: 1T
Is a gloomy moment in history. Not
for many years has there been so
much deep apprehension; never has
the future seemed so incalculable as
at the present time. In our own
country there is universal CONNER
cial prostration and panic, and

Second, assess fairly and completely
the balance sheet Of your country's
assets and liabilities. Study the real
conditions and analyze recovery from
the broad viewpoint of the problems
involved and seek results and benefits
for the common good, rather than
solely from the angle of your personal
desires, experiences and observations.
Sees Need for Cooperation.
Third, the linking of individual
creative initiative under proper COM

these social objectiveS, We must resist
the inroads OF the high saleSmanship

of promises and fulhllments. How
ever, before passing from this may I
quote from Roosevelt's speech OF
october 2, 1882, in Albany, in which
he said:
whenever income in any great
group of the population becomes 30
disproportionate as to dry up pur-
chasing power within any one group
the balance of economic life Is thrown
out of order. It Is a proper concern
of the Government to use wise meas
ures Of regulation, such as will bring
this purchasing power back to normal.
This emergency exists among the
farmers in the Nation today, and I
have not hesitated to say that the
Government owes a duty with respect
to the restoration of their purchasing
power"
Farmer Declared Better on.
As a result of the Presidents agri-
cultural program, the farm group in
relation to income and purchasing
power has been brought into sound
er and better-adjusted position with
respect to the income and purchasing
power Of the business and industrial
group. On the basis Of prices re-
ceived for what he sold and prices
paid for what he bought, with the
average from 1909 to 1914 as a pre-
war average, the farmer in March,
1888, was receiving In prices for what
he sold about one-half as much as
the prices he paid for what he bought.

If one carefully follows direc-
tions, this ointment will correct
an oily skin condition in a week

heads within 80 or 80 days.
A simple remedy to use, it Is
applied after washing and dry
ing the skin thoroughly. It is
left on for only IS minutes in
the beginning. The time Of
treatment increases weekly, but
you never should have it on your
skin for more than one hour.
This efficacious remedy is pri"
marily for the oily skin, but
those of you with normal skins
who suffer with stubborn
blemishes will find it very USE
full.

Wrong Start

A nagging woman's attitude
toward life is expressed even in
her gestures. When dressing
her baby, changing him. feed
ing him, turning him over in
bed, her underlying diSsatisfac-
ton with life translates itself
in the way her hands behave.
She witches. She yanks. She
ShoveS.
The baby reacts to such han
ding, and not desirabiy. He
literally feels" that something
is out Of joint. So he in turn
may become nervous, tldgety,
bad tempered. He's getting the
wrong start. And it's a great
pity.

Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
II am having my eighteenth
birthday party next month and
/ am expecting about IL couples.
As we will all be seated at the
same time, it will be necessary
for me to give a speech.
"a great many of the guests
will not know that it is my
birthday and therefore I am at
a loss as to what to say.
"Some of them will not bring
gifts. / do not want to thank
those who did bring gifts at
the table. Is it all right to
thank them personally as they
go home. so the others won't
feel hurt? M"
You might say, at the table,
something like this:
81 want to thank you all, my
very good friends, for coming to
my party-and for making my
birthday such a happy one,
such a memOry-making one"
It wouldn't be gracious, under
the circumstances, to mention
the birthday gifts at the table.
The thing to do is to open each
gift as it is given to you, thank
the giver and say pleasant and
appreciative words about the
gift.
Then put the gifts in an in
conspicuous place, so that those
who did not know that it was
your birthday will not feel en-
barrassed at their omission OF
gifts. Then, the next day,
write notes of thanks to each
giver, to follow up your words
of spoken thanks on this eve
ming.

Ndgging Mothers

Perhaps, to do her strict JUS
tice, she doesn't nag the baby
himself. He hardly gives an
opening to her in the long hours
he spends asleep. But he SUI
fers just the same, even if it Is
his father and his older brothers
and sisters whom his mother
nags consistently.
A baby is a psychological
home barometer. If the domes.
tic pressure is low, his health
and spirits drop. If his mother
is a bit Of human sunshine, he
too is "set fair"
A doctor who has been watch
ing babies throughout his pro-
fessional life, and who has
thought about them and tried
to understand them, knows that
they are at once tremendously
responsive to suggestion and
tremendously initiative. Babies
have to be like that-how else
would they learn about life?
Then how important it is
that the mother-with whom a
baby spends most Of his time,
despite all we have said about
the responsibility of the father
and of other members of the
family for helping with his
care-should by her words and
her general behavior suggest a
cheerfully positive and pleasant
acceptance of life, instead Of a
whining negation.

Flannel Back

Skirts are of similar materials,
with flannel, linen and soft nov
city woolens apparently the
favorites. There's quite a vogue
now for white flannel skirts
with colored jackets, and a very
pretty fashion it is.
Blouses and sweaters are
available in all colors, too, of
course, and it is usually best to
have them match either skirt or
jacket, unless you wear white or
a neutral tone. In other words,
when you're going in for such
striking colors, two might often
be smart when three would be
much too much.
Prices are pretty much what
you want to pay. Really good
skirts can be bought for SO and
up. Really good quality jackets.

HOUSEWARMING

"Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
81 am coming to you for some
advice. My friend bought a
home and is going to move very
soon. She is planning to have
a housewarming. Would you
advise a gift? And what kind?
81 cannot afford an expensive
gift, but would like to get her
something. F..
It is not necessary to give a
housewarming gift, but it is a
very gracious and generous
thing to do. Anything for the
new home is an appropriate
gift-from a simple set Of tea
serviettes to as consequential
gift as you wish to give.
In linen you might give a
breakfast, luncheon or tea set.
In China, a set of dessert or
salad plates. In glass, a. clear
crystal vase, a set of plates for
salad or a "refreshment set"
of glasses, with perhaps match
ing pitcher.

kind cigarette box. ashtrays'

Beauty
New Ointment
Aids Skin
BY JULIET SHELBY

After actually taking a CEN
sus in the fashionable bright
spots and business offices, I
learned that men, in general, re-
mark about a woman's skin and
hair long before complimenting
her on the gown she wears.
Nine times out Of ten the OBJ
serving man will comment on
the girl who has a beautiful
complexion or an unusually
lovely head of hair!
You are looking very well
tonight" is more natural for
the man to exclaim, than, '1s
that a new gown" Later in
the evening. becoming more
analytical, he possibly notices
that the gown is new or that
the bonnet is fetching. But first
he sees the skin and hair.
Gloria Stuart considers her
smooth, lovely complexion to be
her greatest asset. She abides
by a strict diet and exercise
regime to keep her skin clear
and unblemiShed.

Hyacinth Tints

Just as a starter, there are
the hyacinth tints. What could
be lovelier than a jacket Of n.y.
acinth blue with a skirt OF pink,
perhaps worn with a cream
sweater or white blouse. Then
there are the gorgeous combi-
nations of wood violet with
American beauty, or a light
carbon blue with a rosy tone
that blends. There are colds,
yellows, greens, whites, grays,
and so on, to be used together
with great effect, and to en-
liven the scene at many an out
door gathering this summer.
You'll find the downtown stores
showing jackets of linen, or flan"
mel, novelty woods, heavier non
crushable linen or crash, of cot
ton materials and of Palm Beach
cloth. Some are swagger, some
belted in the new sports YER
Sions, some are plain.

Made, Not Born

How necessary that a baby
should see his mother smiling,
far more often than he sees
her scolding!
It is possible to Sympathize
with a nagging woman as we'll
as with her victims. She may
not even realize the state of
chronic carping into which she
has allowed herself to fall.
And the causes of it may lie
In some physical maladjust-
ment. She may be a nervously
exhausted individual. Her
strength may be drained by
some condition which needs
operative attention.
One reason why it is so i'm.
portant that women receive
proper post-natal care is be-
cause in the absence of it, a
definite ailment or injury, or a
generally lowered vitality, may
change for the worse the
woman's whole personality. The
nagger has been made in this
fashion; she is not always born.
But even while trying to un-
derstand and pity her, it is i'm
possible not to pity her baby
more. He doesn't know what
it's all about, but he is made
definitely uneasy and unhappy
by the sound of her voice with
a constant complaint in it, just
as he is terrified by the voice
of the woman with the habit
of anger.

ors. Whereas men often wore
a brown checked or plaid
coat with gray Stacks, women
nearly always stuck to the one
school of colors, such as black
and gray, navy and gray, or
brown and tan.
Now the idea is developing
for summer, and women will
mix their colors beautifully.
They can achieve as much har-
mony and contrast as they
please. There are some stun.
ming colors shown for summer,
and the combinations possible
are Just about limitless.

the fastening. A black velvet
sash makes a smart contrast.
