Governor Bucks Budget
Proposal Entails Deficit
OF 81, 1,SO7,881.

Tentative Set-up.
MUST MAKE APPEALS

The general fund of the State
will have a deficit tOtaling $1,SO7,-
SSl.56 as of July l, 1887, the end
of the next biennium, according to
the tentative budget bill which has
been compiled by Governor c.
Douglass Buck. The proposed mea-
sure was submitted By him to the
General Assembly soon after it con-
vened, Tuesday. This deficit is
based on the appropriations the
Governor has recommended in the
measure. They total $4,6S5, 1926
for the two years divided as follows:
$2,2SO, ,567.53 for the fiscal year end
ing June 80, 1886, and $2.4O5, ,1S5.03
for the fiscal year ending June 80,
1887.
Governor Buck points out that if
all the requests from the various
commissions had been granted. the
deficit would have totaled $685.
431.16. The requests for the year
ending June 80, 1886, totaled $3,196,-
3SO.33 whereas the Governor recon-
mends a total of $2,2SO,567.53. The
total requests for the year ending
June 80, 1887, were $685. ,921.SS.
The Governor recommends $2,405,-
1888.
BY pairing down the requests and
several, the Governors
budget shows a saving of nearly
81 100000 for the two years, which,
however, he points out will not
avert a deficit. The Governors
recommendations for the biennium
are 1857, ,l11.39 less than the IS, ,6s2,-
S63.95 appropriated. by the last
Legislature for the current fiscal
biennium. n
Departments Omitted
Several State departments have
been omitted from the Governors
budget together with private and
semi7priyate institutions which here
LOfore have been drawing money
from the State treasury and these
account largely for the
reduction in the appropriations
recommended. The Governor points

Change Position

While they are being dressed,
or patted dry after their bath,
they lie comfortably on a soft
pad on a table, with freedom to
move their legs and arms about
and get the natural exercise
which has helped to make them
Shapely. Laps are by no means
the best places for handling in
fantS.
In bed, the quintuplets lie on
q firm, flat mattress, and they
sleep without pillow, so that
there are no uneven surfaces to
push their malleable little bodies
out of shape.
The nurses frequently change
their position-or did before the
babies were old enough and
strong enough to direct their
own changes of posture.
If baby lies first on one
side and then is turned on the
other he not only experiences
the relief which an adult feels
after such a shift but both
sides Of his body grow in the
same symmetry.
The Washington times., 1935-03-20
Set an Example

They set an example to every
nursery. They prove to all par"
ents everywhere how they can
create their own little master
pieces of flesh and blood. Even
such photographs as those pub
lished do not do full justice to
the shapeliness and physical
charm of our little Dionne
babies.
Good food, OF course, has
worked wonders in making
them the good-looking young
sters they are today.
But other factors have
helped. The quintuplets have
benefited by the way in which
their little bodies have been
handled, and other children
will benefit from similar treat
ment.
There is a knack even in hold
ing a baby's tiny body. In hold
ing the quintuplets our nurses
always provide proper support
for head and shoulders. Fur
thermore, when they take a
baby in their arms to give her
bottle to her, they make a spe-
cial effort to cuddle the little
thing as comfortably and affec-
tionateIy as a mother cuddles
the baby nursing at her breast.
Our babies are never picked up
and held lust any Way,
The Washington times., 1935-03-20

For your spring coat with a
fur collar, or with stitched taf"
feta collar, for your redingote or
your suit or coat that is not
tailored, there are several
choices. There are brimmed
hats, either off-face or forward,
and there are turbans, berets
and toques.
Pigskin New
The off,face hat, which might
be a bonnet, beret, toque or
brimmed shape worn well back,
is best on younger people, on
those with flawless complexion,
or on women with a youthful
look. The profile" brim is
everybody's hat, and is a special
favorite with women. MuSh-
room brimS are smart, and will
be better later on.
Berets may fall into three
classes, the plate" with ban
deau beneath, the "tambourine,"
which looks as it sounds and,
the vicor beret with its extreme
ly forward movement. All are
good. ToQueS are often off-face.

Can Be Corrected

Our babies also are frequently
shifted to lie on their tummies
instead of their backs. Rest
ing on their little chests helps
TO eliminate gas after feeding
and encourages each to lift
her head and move her neck
freely from side to side. The
back of the head is thus given
O. rest from constant rubbing
against the mattress.
A little baby is like sculptor'S
clay in that it can be made or
marred by handling.
If it happens that a baby is
born with protuberant ears his
mothers doctor can explain to
her how if taken early enough
this asymmetry can be corrected.
Great care must be used with
such an infant never to allow
a head-covering to press the
ears forward or to permit this
to be done by the position Of
the baby's head while lying
down or in his mothers arms.
Don't handle the baby too
much, but handle him right if
you want him to look beauti.
full in all other eyes as well as
your own.

Would Like a Career

Dear Miss Fairfax:
I'm a young man of 81, and
know now that I married too
young. We have two children,
and it's very hard for me to
make enough to keep even a
modest home.
My wife is bored with married
life too, and likes to go to
dances, and enjoy herself. The
question is, of course, the chill
dren.
1 have always felt I should
like to write, preferably plays,
and if it were not for the burden
of supporting my family, I
should at least be able to try my
hand at play-writing. Do you
know of any institution, where
children with both parents liv-
ing, can be cared for at a nor
NAL cost? j. w. L.
No, my dear sir, do not know
Of any institution which accepts
children with young healthy
parents, who would like to park
them, while one parent tries his
hand at playwriting, and the
other goes in for frivolity.
Some of the best plays pro-
duced on the modern stage have
been written by men and wom-
en- who have had to scratch
hard for a living while they
pushed the pen.
Try your hand at combining
domesticity and playwriting. It
has been done before.

This little story is called
"Color, or the Secret of a
Beautiful Home" The furni-
ture may be old, but surround
it with fresh, attractive color
and you'll never notice it.
There is nothing like color to
give new life to a room. Fine"
you say, ''but suppose you have
two rooms that open into each
other?"
Have Similar Backgrounds
And our answer is that there
is one basic rule that never
fails. Make the backgrounds
the same in color-or practi-
cally the same. Carpet the
floors or put down rugs in both
rooms that are alike; a soft
gray-green, let us say.
Next, walls must be alike in
hue-in oe room plain cream
walls; in the other, wallpaper
with an open, simple design on
a cream ground.
Plan your two rooms so that
at least one dominant color Is
the same in both. For the liv-
ing room, grey-green, blue and
lacquer red. Use the latter in
lamp bases, a pillow or two, or
a bit of pottery.
In the dining room, gray
green, lacquer red and gold.
Bring out the lacquer red a lit
tie more prominently in the
dining room and let the gold
be in the mellow glow of maple
or pine. If the furniture is
mahogany, the gold could be
in window drapery and chair
seats.
If a hall separates the rooms,
as in the illustration, it should
be included in the color scheme
Of either room. This increases

COrsage?

Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
Is it proper to send a girl a
corsage when taking her to a
dance at hotel?
It the girl wears formal
clothes, it is permissible for the
boy to wear a light suit or a
sport suit? A.
Yes, this is the proper and
the gallant gesture for the
young man to make. Not
strictly necessary, of course, but
generous and friendly and
courtly. And the gals love it!
No, this type of clothes would
be terribly out of order. The
young man should wear his
Tuxedo suit, anyway. and, if
the occasion is a strictly formal
one, his tail coat.

It is not considered good
form for a close relative of the

her. But if you are willing to
disregard this social suggestion,
then I think that you should
give the shower in honor of

Dear Miss Fairfax:
I am a girl 20 years old.
My mother died a little over
a year ago, and my father

sake, and I said "Oh yeh."
My stepmother is very

I want my father to provide

Your stepmother has tried to
be kind to you and would be a
real mother, I believe, if you
would give her the chance. Your
fathers second marriage was his
own concern, and while you
may resent seeing someone in
your mothers place, that, my
dear, is just some of the thornS

Like Scuzptors Cay Bobys Body Responds Proper Handling
Good Bath
Basis of
Beauty
By JULIET SHELBY

Sally Eilers, the Columbia
star who rose to cinematic
fame in bad Girl" and who
will soon entertain you again
in Carnival" is another
star who believes the ABC
of beauty is contained in
soap and water.
When Sally takes her daily
Tubing, she arms herself with
a long-handled bath brush and
a cake of soap that makes a rich
lather. Every month this soap
arrives at Sally'S home in large
quantities, and even baby
"Poochy" enjoys it. In fact, the
entire household laudS the mer-
it's of this particular soap.
Miss EilerS is so enthusiastic
about the soap-and-Water system
that she claims that it is one
of the perfect methods of keep
ing the back unblemished. And
if Sally's back is an example of
what proper skin cleansing can
do, then by all means resort to
skin scrubbingS. For Sally has
one of the most beautiful backs
in HOLLYWOOD: the skin is as soft
and transparent as the skin of
her face.
AS soap is antiseptic, slight
blemishes are banished by thor
ough scrubbingS. Of course, the
brush helps in the treatment,
for it stirs up the sluggish cir.
culation, and the impurities
that are not erased by local
treatment are carried away by
the blood stream.
Choose a soap that gives a
rich lather so that the brush
ing will not be too harsh.
The inexpensive soap that Sally
uses is richly scented and its
ingredients are kind to the skin,
which shows no irritation or
discoloration after a scrubbing.
Acquire the habit of giving
your back a good shampoo each
day and see if that doesn't
keep your skin clear and
smooth.
Although you may not realize
it, in many instances dead
cuticle or dandruff drops from
the scalp to your shoulders and
back. These tiny impurities,
unless they are brushed away
with soap and water each day,
clog the pores of the skin.
A blemished back is often no ,
more than an external skin
condition, and if o soap and
water treatment can cure it at
very small cost, you should fol
low the suggestion of Sally
Eilers.
