are properly provided for by the Gov
eminent.

tutional by vote of 6 to 8. Justice
Stone, Brandeis and Cardozo dissent
ed in no uncertain terms, but to little
avail. While we hold no brief for the
Agricultural Adjustment Administra-

it seems to us that this decision is
just another evidence of the antiquity
III legal procedure. Why should any
act of Congress be compelled to await
months of elaboration? Why should
any 6 to decision be taken as a
widespread claim that the Federal
Administration has been repudiated :?
We see every day analogous cases in
our own local courts where juries of
IL men disagree and often return
verdicts when popular opinion is
manifestly against such decision.

more delicious on a cool Fall evening

Spinach, though a little scarce this
week, is Of excellent quality. Kale Is
unusually plentiful Mushrooms are
beginning to come in steadily and have
dropped a bit in price. Homegrown
tomatoes-large, luscious meaty ones,

plentiful.
Beef, roast cuts, as well as steak
portions, continues to sell at special
prices. Lamb is somewhat cheaper,
too. Pork stays about the same.
Butter has dropped a few cents.
Though the supply is lower now than
1t has been since 1928, the demand,
too, has dropped so strikingly that
the price will not, it is predicted, ad-
vance. Eggs are little higher, due
to the seasons shortage. The medium
sized eggs are the best to buy, since
they are produced by the younger
hens, who are laying daily. Older
layers now lay only about one egg a
week While they may be larger,
science claims they are somewhat be-
low par in quality.

the skin scrupulously clean. A good,

are essential for the high-school girl.
And very thorough rinsing is as i'm

scrubbing which should be part of
the complexion brush treatment. Then
the skin should be gently but thor

months, and particularly if the skin
is dry, thin film of lubricating cream
Is advised. But If skin is oily keep
cream off. Soap and water and an
occasional skin tonic patting Is best

Now we are settled, all comfy. These
electric engines are certainly slick
looking. That train from New York
that Just pulled int came to a stop
as gently as q baby shuts its eyes.
About time for us to be moving, too
Goodness there's q messenger boy-if
he stops beside me I'm going to scream
with rage and scare him to death so
he can't deliver the message.
Thank my stars-he went on down

love trains and train yards! The new
engines are marvellous, and terribly
impressive in their sleek lines and tre-
mendous power, but must admit q
sneaking love for the old smoke puff
ers. They were 50 ferocious, and it
was so easy to pretend they were really
dragons breathing forth flames and
steam. And at night, the glow above
them as they rushed along was one Of
the most fascinating sights in the
world. There is nothing lonelier than
the whistle Of a distant train in the
middle of the night in the country,
unless it's the mourning sound Of q
ships fog horn.
T WONDER If I left that special
batch of copy to be sent to the
composing room? There were so many
things to remember-now. what on
earth did I do about that? Oh yes.
I gave it to one of the boys to deliver
for me-but here, said I wasn't going
to think about the ONCE. A years
rest in two days is my motto from
now on. and worrying about business
details isn't going to help the project
along.
Think Of something else quickly,
that's the idea. wonder II my big
child will meet me in Providence all
right? Suppose she is late and misses
the train? What would ahe do then?
Maybe I had better wire her how to
get to Boston without me, 20 she'll be
prepared for any emergency. Ring
for telegraph blank-no, wait q
moment. That would insult her in
telligence, and she would accuse me
of being an old fussy mother. She is
pretty independent after q Summer Of
camp and visiting-guess I'd better
leave well enough alone. and keep my
fingers crossed.
Here's Baltimore-with those ever
lasting white steps. If I lived here
would do something drastic-have
q ramp instead Of steps and paint
1t the way they did camoufiaged ships
In the war. The endless stretches
Of them would drive me completely
mad.
Good-we're moving again, and no
telegraph boy showed up looking for
me. 1 still am sure I didn't do half
the things I should. Hope they can
find things In the files the way I've
got the new system running. Maybe
it isn't rs hot as thought. Perhaps
If I put request letters-whoa!

1T Is said that the late King George
took for his guiding motto in life
this truism: The secret Of life
4 is not to do what one likes to do,
but try to like what one has to do"
There may have been more thrilling
and romantic slogans than this, but
doubt if there ever was one that con-
tanned more good hard sense. or came
nearer to comprising the whole OF
the law and the prophets on how to
be happy. For If we like what we
have, we have what We like, and
that is the realization Of our desires,
and when we learn to take what comes
In life and like it, We have acquired
philosophy that protects US from
all the slings and arrows Of outrageous
fortune.
I would particularly urge the mem
bers of my sex to paste these royal
words of wisdom on their mirrors
where they will see them every time
they put on their compilations ana
their hats because, somehow, women
seem constitutionally unable to make
the best Of a bad bargain or to adjust
themselves to dificult situations. In
deed, they have a talent for making
mountains Of trouble out of mole
hills of unpleasantness, Of letting
single flaw in a glass ruin the whole
OF q beautiful view. It was woman,
you remember, who couldn't sleep be-
cause there was a crumpled rose leaf

IN THE thousands upon thousands
of letters that I get from women
telling me OF their woes, the thing that
amazes me most and that seems most
tragic to me is that so much Of their
suffering Is unnecessary. 50 many

thoroughly. This shop has some other
new items that we are going to tell
you about.
You probably have "girdle" down on
your list somewhere. and are not aw-
fully keen about it, but right here
We want to tell you about q new Fall
junior model at $295 that is just
about right in every way. 1t has q
lastex back and satin front with
tummy reinforcement covered with
lace that conceals two very unobtru-
sive bones. It hooks at the side and
has fiat garters. The combination of
satin and lastex will keep you fiat and
smooth where you need 1t most.
After your girdle you will want
panties, and the smoothest hit of the
season is . skin-fitt:ng pantie made
to fit the body snugly of silky rayon
mixture. No wrinkles or seams to
show through. these new undies come
in three lengths-short, medium and
long. The secret Of their perfect f1t
is that the elasticity Is knitted into
the fabric, and they will neither
stretch nor sag. Each one comes in
. cellophane envelope at 81, and
they're SO easily laundered, too.
PAJAMAS for bed are apt to be
rather loud affairs for college
girls. They run to bold. bright colors
and splashy designs. They like them
very mannish in cut aud favor polo
and paisley prints which come in both
long and short sleeves. Quite the
best looking ones among the group
shown is a soft gray plain material
with collar, shirt front and cuffs
trimmed with three rows of seam bind
ing in three tones of wine color
light. medium and rich dark. These
come In sizes 14-17, and are cut on
ample lines with adjustable trouser
tops.
Then we found real scoop for any
one going away to school. 1t was .
whole table Of perfectly adorable bal
briggan pajamas in several styles to
keep YOU cozy and warm all through
the Winter. We especially liked the
one with q v neck, short sleeves and
. fitted-in belt and ankle bands. These
attractive garments have tops in
horizontal stripes of blue alternating
with Q gray blue mixture, and the
trousers are plain blue. They also
come In pink with dubonnet, and yel-
low with brown. They are only 81,
wry{n lnvn
style with long sleeves and high,
round neck using bands of contrast
color for trim comes In plain colors.
In the same general style are other
collegiate pajamas in what is called q
tuck-stitch-really meaning q thin
knit weave. All OF these wash easily
without ironing, which is . great point
In their favor, and besides, they will
feel 50 soft and warm the very first
chilly night!
To return to the subject Of robes
again. Corduroy is always good, and
terials. This season it comes In a
house coat style IN dark colors with
collar, revers, belt and cuffs Of dotted
satin in contrast color.
The initiated flannel robe is smart
with its double breasted closing fast
ened with q large square button con-
tanning individual initials. We are
told that these have been selling Won
derfully well TO college girls. They
come in navy, aqua and crushed rasp-
berry, with white satin binding on
collar, cuffs and pockets. Princess
models are also features, that boast
square white pearl buttons and are
unbelted.
