The slightly jtngled d.f. thinks he is . better man when he is in that state; any sober observer can readily see that he is actually less competent in every respect than he is when sober.
 Only drinkers regard alcoholic beverages or liquor as 'stimulants", and they have to be slightly i1toxi- cated in order to feel confident they are right. All scientific authorities know that alcohol in any quantity and in any circumstance is depres- sant from first to last, depressant to every function of body. and mind; and when sufficient Alcohol is taken into the body 1t is invariably 1arco- tic in action, as any normal, sober observer can readily perceive.

Not a few dis have paid with their lives for such Q false notion, as when exposed to extreme cold or when called upon to make some supreme physical ef- fort involving prolonged strain on the strength or energy of the body. Alcohol in such circumstances is a fatal poison. ".'.t
 Fiction writers of the moron class who play up the expression on the face of the corpse still resort to a little brandy when they have to re- vive g character long enough for him to gasp out his confession or tell who killed him.

 A person who takes @ few drinks and presently feels flushed, excited, warm, talkative, confident and cap- able, naturally iinagines this is stim- ulation. The surface flushing and sense of warmth is due to a kind of paralysis and relaxation of the fine arterioles, which permits the warm blood from the vital centers and or- gans of the body to rush to the sur- face and remain there. The faster pulse rate is due to release of nor- mai inhibition or brake control of the heart beat. The garrulity is due to the narcotic first putting to sleep the higher brain centers which nor- inaiiy keep . person from talking foolishly. l-,

SPRING EXPOSES CHILD
 TO TRAFFIC DANGERS

Skate time, kite time, ball time. All of them are here with the robins and, like the robins, come at their own risk. s.
 So far the youngsters have been moderately safe, because in many cities and towns, to say nothing of country roads, the ice piled up in alps between curb and road-bed have done splendid duty as barriers. But daily the sun levels the bull warks and daily encroachrnents on speedwayS increase. ......- - q. .s
 Actually the wonder is that more children are not hurt. But that does not help the situation much because too many are Killed. 5 t
 One answer to the whole busi- ness, especially in large cities, is of course, more playgrounds and small parks easily reached from home. The growth of safe open spaces for play has been criminally slow and far from adequate com pared to the increase in cars and speed. One would think that chil- dren were incumbrances not to be

openly acknowledged in some city budgets. Schools are important, but not any more important than health and life.
 Need to Realize Traffic Perils
 Increased police protection around school buildings has been a gesture in the right direction; but it is like taking the matches from the baby from three to four in the afternoon and letting him play with them the rest of the day. School-let-out is, of course, a greater hazard because of greater numbers on the street at once, but 1t is not enough.
 Last year the skates rolled so many of their owners under wheels of passing cars, confiscation started in many places. Police harvested skates on sight and many a bicycle served its term as well.
 So far, the, express wagon and top auto seem to have escaped, but who can tell when their time may come? As for balls and kites and anything else that flies or rolls what is to be done about ,them9 It has come to the place where anything that moves is under in. dictment. Most outdoor toys move and children either move with them or on them, blissfully oblivious te danger. %
 Play Space Decreases
 "Playthings should promote &C., tivity and exercise" say the books But the space to play decreases as the advice advances. There is little place to use muscle-building tops except outdoors, and the outdoors means pavement and the pavement means street for most children.
 Once outside they forget where the dead-line lies, and dead-line lis an apt designation. We know how irnpluse works and how easy it is to forget orders from home Just this one little chance won't hurt anyway" says Johnny, and sometimes it won't, but out of those chances he takes, sometime his guardian-angel will be yawning.
 However, even enough play grounds would not be an air-tight preventure of accidents. Children would still skate to them, cross in front of cars, and play ball on the way. So all I can see is first-aid course in prevention right at home Some equivalent of AND SUDDEN DEATH should be told them. And I'd make it good. L,
 All children need to learn real respect for motor cars. Few of them have any. Drivers can't be changed They are what they are. Some good some indifferent, some selfish fools Anyhow the day is over when they can stop on @ dime.

 When the children come trooping home from school at noon, with ravenous appetites, try satisfying their hungry demansd with hot, substantial, savory sandwiches.
 When friends drop in for Sum- day night supper, the savory hot sandwich also answers the problem of something easy and interesting to serve to company.
 Leftover meats, odds and ends of cheese, gravies, sauces, help make the sandwiches tasty. For toast, two-day old slices of bread can be used: graham, Boston brown, whole wheat or rye, crack CTS, rolls or biscuits.
 Say that you start with bits of the Sunday roast of beef. Chop the meat quite fine, add the gravy and a few shreds of green pepper and minced onion Drowned in a little butter. Heat to the boiling point and add half a teaspoon of Worcestershire sauce or tomato catsup to taste. Serve on hot but tered toast with spicy pickles.
 If you had chicken with bis- cults and gravy for Sunday din- ner, an easy sandwich is made by taking the meat" from the bones, relocating it in the gravy

 During the past week there have been many requests for exercises which will correct bad posture. Here are two important ones which, though done only two or three times day for one month, will remove the hollow from your back, make your stomach flat and hips look a god deal smaller: . s5 .'
 Lie flat on the floor with aYtns at your sides and knees bent so weight of the legs is on balls of the feet. Now, beginning at the nape of the neck, press each vertehra, except the last four or five at the base of the spinal column flat against the floor. Turn these last four upward from the floor. As you do SO, pull your stomach in as far as 1t will go. If you do 1t correctly there will be ab- soluteuly no space between the fnid- de of your back and the floor.
 Hold the position Q few sec onds, then relax, lowering the legs. Repeat two or three times. This teaches you correct posture. You should stand as you were ly- ing-base of spinal column curv- ed forward, hips turned in, stom- ach flat and shoulders square.
 When you have finished, stand about g foot away from a flat wall, facing the middle of the room. Keeping your feet together, let your neck fall backward against the flat surface, then, vertebrs by vertebra flatten the entire length of your backbone against the wall. That is, all except four or five links at the base. These should not touch at all, but should be turned forward and up 50 the center of the back will be flat.
 Naturally, this pulls your stom- ach in. Repeat several times. The position your back, stomach and hips are in when you are against the wall is the way they should be when you stand or walk.
 NEXT: More aDous posture.

 Paris, (UP)-One of the greatest faults to be found with Paris sports clothes in the past has been that they were made for the hot-house- plant type of woman who never went beyond the fur robe on the back seat of @ limousine. In re- cent years French women have be- come more athletically minded and sports clothes. accordingly, have become garments that are really practical for exercise.
 One of the most practical and smartest suits for between sea- son" wear is in brown tweed with a straight skirt, wick pleat in front, and a three-quarter length coat fashioned with mannish re- veres. The coat is double breasted and trimmed with twin rows of brown leather buttons. The sleeves are modified leg-o-mutton variety with shoulder fullness achieved by small gathers at the seam. With this is worn Q jacket in a grey and creamy check mixture of the. same tweed. The jacket is single breast ed. fastening up the front with 6 row of small brown leather buttons, and is beited only in back.
 More summery is . suit in . clear dark green linen which looks SO much like wool tweed that you must touch it to make sure. The skirt has the same kick pleat in front, and the loose. straight jacket with leg-O' mutton sleeves hes revero1 lined in- to a check linen iia which ned pre- dominates.
