Transplanting tips

SEVERAL HOURS before trans
planting young plants, soak them
thoroughly so the soil will cling to
their roots when they are lifted.
Do not transplant young plants
and then sprinkle them with a hose,
as shown in Fig. / of the above
Garden-Graph. You are merely fool
ing yourself and the plants. The
water soaks the surface of the soil
but does not get down to the roots.
where it is so badly needed. If the
sun strikes such plants after being
watered in this way, it is apt to bake
and cake the soil and wilt the ten
der transplants before their roots can
take hold.
The proper way to transplant is
shown In Fig. 2. Dig a hole that is
large enough so it will not crowd
the roots of the young plant. Soak
the bottom of the hole with water
before setting the plant in it. After
setting the plant in the hole, firm
the soil about it with your hands,
but not hard enough to break or
crack the ball of earth about the
roots of the plant.
Always transplant on cool, cloudy
day IL possible, so the plants can get
a start before they have to brave the
hot rays of the sun. The cool of the
evening is also good time for trans
planting. If the following day ia
windy or hot, cover the plants with
'askets or newspapers to protect
hem against excessive evaporation
needed moisture.

Is Mean,

Miss Lee Suggests

By VIRGINIA LEE

ALMOST EVERY young girl
comes to a time when she is sure
her parents or guardians do not
understand her and are cruel to
her. She almost always wants to
run away from home, thinking she
will be happier making her own
life. Of course she has no con-
ception of what it means to
struggle along by herself with no
one to look after her. Ii she did
she would give up the idea very
quickly. A youngster in her early
teens certainly could not earn
enough to support herself properly
at anything but housework, and in
most cases she would find that the
hardships she had to endure at
home would not be a drop in the
bucket compared to those she
encountered in this new life.
A DISCOURAGED girl has written
telling me how mean" her grand
mother is to her. Her parents have
separated, her mother works and her
father demands that IL she lives with
him she must pay for her keep.
Discouraged is IS. "I have to write
before I go crazy she says, and
then tells me how her grandmother
finds fault with her, expects her to
help with the housework after she
has worked all day, and then talks
about the girl to friends and exag-
eerates her faults. Grandma also
likes to sit with the young folk when
the girl has company, and altogether
Discouraged is very much discouraged
indeed.

THE FOLLOWING letter from
Rabbi Alexander Ian Steinbach of
Temple Ahavath Shalom, Brooklyn,
N. Y, pleases me very much.
MY dear Dr. Myers: AS reader
of your column, may I take this
means of expressing to you my ad
miration of the fine work you are
doing? Not only are you disseminat-
ing information that enables parents
to understand problems relating
to their children, but you are also
advancing the cause of goodwill
among all religious sects. The need
for promoting goodwill and broader
tolerance Is a grave one throughout
the world. For both of these splendid
objectives. you and your newspapers
are to be heartily congratulated. I
deem 1t a pleasure to send my felici-
tations."
1t has never been my privilege to
meet Rabbi Steinbach, but have
known him "ough his splendid ar
ticles to parents in number of mag
azines and through his numerous
published researches in scientific
journals on juvenile delinquency. For
several years, while serving in a
temple at Norfolk, Va, he also served
as psychologist for the juvenile court
there. He spent several summers
studying psychology and psychiatry
at Johns Hopkins university.
Furthers Tolerance
A letter like that from Jewish
rabbi to Christian layman of Ger
man parentage bespeaks the toler-
ance I have always tried to further
in this column. in all my books and
other writings, as well as In my COL
lege classes and public addresses. My
wife and I have tried to bring up
our children to have kindly feeling
toward other persons of different re-
llgious faiths. Though we are Pro-
testant. among the closest friends of
ours are Jews and Catholics. 1t would

word and action.
When l was boy on the farm we
sold our produce to Nathan Sachs, a
Jew whom all the neighborhood re-
spected. His family occasionally ate
meals in our home and ours did in
his. There was only one Catholic
family in that farm country, but
they were esteemed by all their
neighbors. They. too, visited in our
home and we in theirs. Moreover,
there were three different Protestant
groups besides the one of my family,
and we children on numerous occa-
sions attended services in all of them.
Thanks to my father and mother.
whose memory I tenderly revere, I
have often been grateful for that
childhood education in tolerance and
goodwill towards others of different
faiths.

man, Disraeli, 1t Is said, could not
touch violets without getting a rash
on the back of his hands. Yet he

we'll criticize him for that, for violets

SONS. And violet is also one of the
most popular of our shades this sea-
son.
The most unique use of the DELI
cate shade of violet, however. is
as a powder shade. Madeleine Car
roll. young screen star, uses this
powder shade often in the evening.
According to Madeleine, it tends to
give the skin an alluringly delicate.
transparent appearance. l can testi-
fly that she is right about that. But
one must know how to use this pow
der shade skillfully, IL the proper ef-
feet Is to be achieved.
Violet powder really is excellent for
giving the skin a soft, attractively
delicate appearance. However, it
should be used only under the arti-
fetal lights of evening. 1t is far too
likely to make the face appear garish
and obviously made UP in the clear,
revealing light of day. And of
course, no maiden wants to look obvi-
ously artificial. To use this powder
properly, you should mix one-fourth
of the violet powder with three
fourths of a box of the powder that
you generally use. And besides, you
should be sure not to use too much
of the violet powder, else it may give
your face a somewhat purplish tinge.
Not Becoming to All
Despite the delicate, luminous ap-
pearance it gives to the skin, there
fore, you see violet powder should
never be used indscriminately. More
over, there are certain types of indi-
viduals that this powder does not be-
come at all. Violet powder generally
is best suited for use by blondes and
redheads. Girls of this type are nat
urally fair of coloring. The powder.
therefore, does not break up their
natural color harmony, but simply
adds a more fiower-like delicacy to
theiy compilations,
Some brunettes, OF course, also can
use the violet shaded powder advan-
tageously. This class is very limited,
however. and includes only such bru-
nettes as possess very fair skin and
rich cheek and lip coloring. Ordi-
narily. the brunette with olive or
dusky skin should not use the violet
powder, as 1t will afford too great
contrast with her hair, and will tend
to give her an unnatural color.

Subject of Medical
Research
By LOGAN cLENDENING, M. D.

BY LOGAN CLENDENlN6, M. ID.
ONE OF THE two or three most
active fields of medical research to-
day Is that of the functions and dis
eases of the ductless glands. 1t Ia
important, then, when the eminent
director of neuroendocrine research
at Harvard, DIR. R. G. Hoskins, sum-
marizes the progress that has re-
Gently been made. (Journal of the
American Medical Association.)
The particular phase of the
subject that DIR. Hoskins empha-
sizes is the possibility of progress in
the field of disorders of childhood
and infancy. The growth and de-
velopment of children Is largely con-
trolled by these ductless glands-the
thyroid gland, the pituitary gland.
In the brain, the adrenal gland, and
perhaps most especially by the one
named the "thymus gland. in the
chest.
This thymus gland Is the only one
which disappears normally at cer-
tain time of life. The sex glands
atrophy after middle age. but not so
completely as the thymus. During
childhood the thyrnus is a large mass
of whitish tissue in the chest, but as
soon as growth is complete. at about
the age of Is, 1t disappears. It has
been possible to isolate an extract of
the thymus, which. in animals. pro-
duces an astonishing stimulation of
infant development Asher has re-
Gently reported the discovery of a
thymic extract that does directly
promote development. H e e."
writes DR.. Hoskins, there may soon
be available valuable medicament
for use in cases of delayed Develop
ment in children"
Another Influence Developed
In the thyroid gland we have an
other influence on the development
of the echild-particularly the mental
| development. Most physicians rec
ognize the classic fully developed
case of thyroid deficiency in infancy
those cases known as "cretinism'.
But there are many with less fully
developed manifestations, and these
are equally responsive tos treatment
by thyroid gland extract. Such are

dry and brittle hair, delay in teeth
ing and skeletal development, poor
nutrition and sluggish functions of
the skin, with failure to- respond to
| dietary management.
Still another development which
may prove of great help to the chill
| dren's doctors is the discovery of a
substance from the pituitary gland
which will stimulate the flow of milk.
1t does even more than this: it seems
to stimulate even the maternal in
stincts. because under its influence
virgin rats have been known to
adopt and mother infant rats and
mice. and even squads and little rab-
bits.
