'"The Methodist Church has

ItizenS Associations Editor


The proposed erection of
sports arena by the washington

northwest, where boxing bouts
wrestling matches and other
sports may be held, was vigorously
opposed in a resolution presented
by Harvey o. Craver and adopted
by the Petworth Citizens ASsocia,
ton at last nights meeting In

It was pointed out that the pro
posed site is within a denSely
populated residential area and IN
close proximity to the Petworth
Branch Library, and a very large
and growing public school center
where several thousand students
are enrolled who would be greatly
disturbed by noises emanstlng

Mr.. Craver, George w. Potter,
Timothy T. Tincher and Horace j.
Phelps, were named committee
to oppose construction Of the
arena at a public hearing held to-
day by the securities and ex-
change commission.
Criticism arose over the action
of the director of traffic in replac-
ing stop signs on Fifth Street to
stop traffic entering from Upshur
Street, which, it was asserted,
compelled three stops in one block.
It finally was decided to give the
experiment a trial until next meet
ing of the association in May.
Resolution Referred

dent of the Federation of Citi-
zens Associations, sponsored a
resolution favoring the election by
popular vote of two civilian COM

GIO'itying Yourself
By Alicia Hart

Real beauty has come to mean something quite different from what it did in the days when to be ccE1- bidered pretty was every girls aiIl- bition. Indeed, the very word pretty has been replaced by such terms as smart, good looking. charming, beautiful exotic, tl1divi- dual-Iooking, chic, trim and neat.
 Modern woman wants to be all of these, of course. If she can't, she,1I take any one of them in preference to pretty"
 As . result of all the talk about the importance of sleek cultures, diets, tailored clothes and if1di- vidual makeup, there are, as 8 matter of fact, few pretty girls. By this I mean the curly-headed. plump checked woman who wss just that--pretty and nothing more. Tn her place we have the exquisitely groomed, simply dressed girl with haircut that shows the shape of her fine head. jilst-right figure mot fat, but not nat like the postwar curveless bodies and feni- mine appeal that spells beauty rather than mere prettiness.
 { There always have been women like this; of course, but they used to be generously interspersed with pretty ones because pretti- ness was the vogue. If you doubt that 1t isn't today, look at screen and stage stars whose looks and personal appearances either set . trend or reflect 1t q never can figure which way 1t works out).
 Kay Francis certainly is lovely, but one thinks of her as beautiful and smart rather than pretty. Contrast her with petite Mary Pickford of the regular features who used to be considered one of the prettiest girls in the world. Prettiness was important then.
 Joan Crawford, Marlene Diet- rich and Katharine Hepburn are t0day's beauties. Yet not one of them really is pretty. loans mouth is too big. Marlene has hollow cheeks that make her iil- teresting but never pretty. Kath- arine Hepburn hasn't 9 single really pretty feature. Yet every. one of these women is beautiful by modern standards.

RY OIiYa RbTarfa NartOn

Jimmy hadn't done much. I mean that if you or I had helped our selves to the fig cakes that were be- ing saved for tea, we would not think so. Not even if we had been told they mustn't be touched.
 If we had come in ravenously hungry and had beheld those cookies so tenptineIy laid out on q plate, our corssciences wouldn't even have stirred in their sleep.
 But Jimmy was branded. He was called q thief, Q teart-break and . criminal. So angry were his aunt and mother that they predicted something would happen to make him pay up for his racket.
 If mother had sTnacked Jimmy and told him he ought to be a.. shamed, he'd have bawled c little, looked sheppish and rernorseftil (perhaps) and gotten 1t out of his system by going out and snowball- ing other youngsters to whistle back his gelf-respect.
 But bitter tongues lay you bare. They inch off every atom of self- respect Q person has. They not only Hay but slay. And Jimmy was bleeding.
 Jimmy an Impulslve Sinner ' When all the ladies had gone and the tea was pronounced suc- cess aunt and mother forgot about the cakes. Just once did Jimmy's aunt refer to them and Jimmy cringed. He felt that he never, would be able to stand it if they mentioned 1t once again. He decid- ed that if they did, he would run off.
 All this, perhaps, was foolish of Jimmy. Why didn't he say, "Ail this fuss about 8 few little measly cakesl" Why wasn't he hardhoii- ed? Why didn't he wait until their backs were turned and swipe the three left?
 Because he was not a "premed- itated" sinner. He had obeyed ifYi- pulse and sudden temptation and was going against his conscience even as he ate. Stolen fruits are not sweet to the moral. They are bitter, intensely so, to adult or child with well-deveioped inhibitions.
 Sins Were Only Normal
 Besides everything he did, even things that lie in the category of normal childish misconduct, were rubbed in and his good faith at- tackled. Acts themselves were never punished by a bit of retribu- ton, but everything was laid to his failure as Q person"
 Tn all his life Jimmy had done no more than break 8 window or two, not get up when called, track in mud, lose books or caps, or hook Q banana off the sideboard. Sins of omission and commission that may be forgiven in q child, plus, of course talks on "goodnesS" and right thinking and the average penalties. Average penalties, not soul-sear- ing ones unfair to a child.
 All his fife he will feel OVER- guilty. The world is full of peo. pie like that, good useful peoplel who eat themselves up and get sick by morbid conscience. It Is right to feel guilty for real wrongs and many children do not feel guilty enough. But why rob the Jimmies of all self-respect and fill them with agonies beyond their years? They don't outgrow them. They go through life feeling that for their very existence they should apologize to society.

milk and being especially rich in calcium.
 In buying food, too, there are other things to be considered. There is, of course, the budget question: :: division of expense for food needed for actual nourishment. luxuries re- quired for satisfaction of special ap- petites, and victuals to have on hand for entertainment and social purposes.
 Regarding the last item, food has come to have significant place so- cially in our lives. When you en- certain friends at dinner, you like to provide something "extra spe- cial," 6 custom that flourishes even in Arctic climes.
 Among the Eskimos, 1t is Q great occasion when fresh meat is avail- able; and the Eskimo possessing 1t is, temporarily at least, @ "big mos gull" in his community.
 It is also necessary that the per- son handling the food have cook ing ability. Remember: you must like the food or you won't eat 1t.

diyination that such paralytic acci. dents are not due to the Pasteur virus; while I, on the other hand, can't savvy any other rational ex- planation for it. But, remember, folks, am 8 newspaper doctor, and that's pretty low as status is rated in the medical world. I mean-a doc- tor who holds forth in the news papers regularly and unbiushingly is practically g quack, whereas if he jumps in only when good occasion presents he is 8 leading or well known representative of the pro- feSsion.
 The material injected in the Pas teur treatment to prevent alleged Tables is @ variable suspension of dried spinal cord of 8 rabbit which has died of some hypothetical dis ease presumed to be rabies which was inoculated into the original rab- bit from a dog which was presum. ed to have died of rabies. It is all quite complicated and perhaps @ bit too deep for @ mere newspaper doc- tor to grasp anyway. but have said enough to give you a rough idea of the nature of Pasteur treatment and to make Q few more bitter enemies for myself. Ordinarily I should call 1t day, but there Is still something-what was going to Sayp-Oh. yes, earnest, level- headed physicians still give Pasteur treatment to persons excited about dogbiteS, and on the same basis up and coming practitioners now be- lieve in and administer convalescent serum as a remedy in poliomyelitis, or virus or vaccine of one kind or another as @ means of immunizing against poliomyelitis. We can't wait for the cause of poliomyelitis to be determined, the specific germ, virus or whatnot to be isolated and iden- tified and attenuated and standard ized as to potency or virulence. The newspapers have to have news.
 Well, what of that? No one has determined the cause or discovered the germ, or virus of smallpox. .'et we vaccinate people by the tkou- sands and imnunize or inject peo- pie with smallpox virus or suspen- sions of tissue from an animal pre- sumably dead of smallpox. So there is no fair analogy here. Vaccina- ton is inoculation with cowpox, a disease of cattle, not dangerous to man but the natural immunity fol- lowing recovery from the inoculated cowpox (called vaccinia) seems to confer immunity against smallpox too. Knowing what I know we don't know about the cause and nature of smallpox and of cowpox and of vaccinia, believe in keeping well vaccinated myself, and I advise jt for any one who asks for my advice, but am unalterably opposed to compulsory vaccination and partic- ularly to trick laws or ordinances or regulations by which school boards and peanut-brained health officers seek to make vaccination cofnpuls- ory for certain classes, such as the children of people who prefer the public school to the private school.
