Into Exile
BY VIRGINIA LEE

THE FINEST types of women
l have ever met are the ones who
have followed their husbands to
the mining camps and stuck to
them, stated a woman who has
been in far countries and remote
places. Most of the women whose
men wander far from the beaten
path can't take it, she states.
You know there is something
about this marriage business be-
sides loving and being happy. 1t
takes grit, spunk, or what ever
you like to call it-courage, maybe
as well as love to see it through.
OF course I admit that there are
some circumstances that make it
almost impossible for two people
to keep on living together. But
the longer I live and the more
experience I have the more think
that when folk marry they should
take the clause in the marriage
service that reads, For better or
worse, for richer or poorer, in
sickness and health, seriously,
and resolve to keep the promise
they make when they speak their
vows.
To keep on doing your duty, even
when you are thoroughly unhappy,
is a wonderful character builder.
Don't be sissies, you young married
people. Put the same strength and
courage into winning the game of
life that you do into the football
or hockey game. If the partner
in life is a big disappointment,
don't rush to the divorce courts.
Do your best to wangle success out
of what may seem like a pretty
hopeless mess.
MARY E. A: Your mother is
your best advisor on your love
affairs, my dear. She can meet the
men and see what manner of men
they are. I cannot. The teacher
is much too old for you, so don't
encourage him, even if he has no
mother. You are too youthful to
mother him. And better wait until
the younger boy is through college
before taking him seriously.
UNDECIDED: Rich girl, with
two grand boys in love with you.
I'm sure 1 don't know how to tell
you to choose between them. If
you who know them can't tell
which you love, how do you sup
pose anyone else can? Don't prom
ise to marry either at present.
Talk the matter over with your
mother and see what she says. If
you can put them off while, time
nay tell which one you really care
most about Or you may meet
f someone else and discover that you
10 not really love either

Pays Her Way to College
With Flowers for Florists
By ROBERT III. BROWN
Central Press Correspondent

INSTEAD OF saying it with
flowers, Miss Velma Fern Carter,
Biloxi. Miss, girl, paid her way to
college with flowers. She is now
a student at the Mississippi State
College for Women, all because she
changed the slogan adopted by the
national florists organization.
Undiscouraged by her sex and
the usual inability of girls to make
enough money to pay their way
through college. Miss Carter was
determined to educate herself.
Last spring, as she was preparing
to graduate from high school with
honors, she cast about for ways
and means of financing her college
career. One day she passed a
florists shop.
Gets an Idea
An idea sprang up just like
that! Why not grow flowers to be
sold to retail florists? The more
she thought about the idea the
better she liked it. She decided
to raise chrysanthemums for the
All Saints Day market, Nov. 1.
She purchased one thousand
chrysanthemum plants and set
them out. The cost of the plants,
fertilizer, and care was less than
fifty dollars. Throughout the
summer, Miss Carter coaxed the
NUNS" along.
During the hot summer months
she worked faithfully bringing the
NUNS along so that they would be
ready to be cut by Nov. l. They
had to be nursed so the blooms
could then be at their best. This Is
an art which even professional
flower growers have difficulty In
accomplishing.
But All Saints Day arrived and
the blooms were in good condition.
Some of the plants were six feet
tall.
Meanwhile school had started,

ACCORDING to all accounts, it
vas the famous Venetian painter,
Titan, who first really glorified
red hair. Titan, it seems, was
nearly as temperamental as some
of our Hollywood prina donnas
lie refused to paint hair of any
other shade than red. And ]
rather imagine that many of the
coqucttisn ladies Of 'Titian's time
resorted to the henna pot to
achieve that popular shade.
Personally, l can't blame any
woman for longing to possess red
gold hair. For Titan hair really
is beautiful when properly cared
for. But just the same, the prob

In the first place, the carrot
topped lassie's tresses need a
great deal of care, so that they
will retain their lustrous, FURNISHED
appearance. AS one of our pref
test redheads, jeanette MacDon-
aid, will tell you, brushing is
the grandest way of polishing
Titan hair. jeanette herself al
ways brushes her auburn locks
briskly the first thing each morn
ing.
When she was just a mere tot,
she got into the habit of brushing
her hair vigorously every day.
And she considers brushing the
first step in any redheaded girls
hair-grooming routine. In addi-
ton, whenever possible, jeanette
suns her hair and lets the air get
at her scalp. And she gives her
locks a hot oil treatment weekly.
Olive Oil Best
jeanette usually uses olive oil for
these oil treatments, for she thinks
that this oil supplies just the right
ingredients for red hair. Red hair,
she says, generally needs more oil
than other kinds, as it loses its
luster and fine texture more quick
ly If neglected. And sometimes
she uses a good brilliantine in be-
tween these oil treatments, in or
der to preserve the lovely sheen of
her hair.
She merely pours a bit of the
brilllantine into the palm of her
hand, and then sweeps her hair

MANY OF the loveliest silk and
satin slips are lace-trimmed, but
the newest and most important
change in slips is the arrival of
the all-lace one.
The all-lace slip hangs much
more comfortably under velvet or
wool dresses, and the lace does not
cling to the fabric of the dress.
The slip pictured is of fine white
cotton lace in a novelty pattern.
1t is exceedingly attractive under
a sheer blouse as well as under a
dress.
Lingerie is among the preferred
gifts at Christmas time. A girl
or woman may have too many
books, pocketbcoks. whatnots for
her home, perfume, etc, but she
can hardly have too many sets of
dainty underthings. including slips
and negligees.
Black lingerie is still high style,
but while making gifts it is well
worth considering, as any woman
would like 2 set in black. although
she might hesitatS to buy them for
herself.

Reserve University

FORTUNATE the suffering
child whose teacher tries to help
him in a sympathetic and intelli.
gent fashion. From Oklahoma such
a teacher writes:
"I am a rural teacher who reads
your column with interest. Not
long ago read your article on the
suffering child. This greatly in
terested me, as I have a little girl
of nine in my school who shutters.
/. &. Please tell me if anything can
be done about the matter"
My reply: I am happy to learn
that you are trying to help a stut-
tering pupil. You will get best re-
suits eventually if you will deal
with the suffering directly. Do
not interrupt this child or tell her
to go more slowly or to repeat
after you; act always as If every
thing were going well. Don't look
at her mouth when she shutters;
look at her eyes or look elsewhere.
Don't hold your breath then;
breathe naturally and be relaxed
while the child speaks. In the
event you know the word the child
is trying to say but cannot, it
might be well, at times, provided
she welcomes such help, to give the
word quietly and nonchalantly.
Get Parents to Help
Get into touch with the child's
parents and try to prevail on them
to treat this child as considerably
as you do. Look into the likelihood
of jealousy, and try to induce the
parents to make this child feel
worthy at home, and loved as much
as any other member of the fam
lily; and to induce them to help this
child win more successes with her
playmates. To check with their
doctor, moreover, with a view to
building up the child physically and
providing a home atmosphere Of
calm and poise. ....
Try to create a home.' classroom
atmosphere in which no child will
need to feel self-conscious as he
speaks. Keep your voice quiet and
low-pitched.
If you have had speed drills quit
using them. Be sure you do not
tell any child to hurry if while on
his feet he hesitates to give an
answer or volunteer a statement.
Have a secret understanding with
this suffering child that she shall
recite only when she feels she has
the courage to do so. Help her
get on with play slsills on the play
ground.
Plan to have her absent when
you will take the other children
into your confidence about her, and
appeal to them to strive to help
her feel more comfortable. And
see the moral good that they will
gain. Expect only gradual results.
Be happy if you see improvement
in the child's speech after a few
weeks or months.

brush over it. And when the
brush has been properly lubri-
Gated, she brushes her lovely locks
with it. This distributes the bril-
liantine evenly, and gives her hair
a beautiful luster.
In shampooing red hair, jeanette
says, a liquid soap is best. The
hair should be lathered and rinsed
several times, and the water and
shampoo solution should be grad
ually reduced in temperature until
it is almost cold.
The final rinse should be
vinegar or lemon rinse. Then the
hair should be dried with warm
towels.
When shampooing red hair, how
ever, special precautions always
should be taken in the rinsing.
For if any soap Aim is left on the
hair, it will make it appear sticky,

NOT IN NEWS

BUT PIGS SQUEAL!

the mousse this and mousse that
give US dyspepsia, the wording of
the menu was not the cause of our
dependency. Our means for the
human race arise in despairing
protest against the food we NOR
tails are expected to eat because
some expert food connoisseur, who
probably has stomach trouble, has
labeled it delicacy.
IN MAKING this public COM
plant, we want to say that we
have no quarrel with those people
who relish a dish of sweetbreads or
tripe or other such foods with
names that don't really tell what
you are actually eating. If you
like that kind of food, that's your
business. We don't, and we sup
pose that's our business.
Through years of restaurant
dining, we have learned to avoid
such foods. So, experienced as we
are, we felt safe enough when we
ordered roast sucking pig at the
dinner of which we spoke. But
what we got was not at all what
we expected; matter Of fact. we
got more than we eXpected-more
than we asked for.
This dinner was somewhat like
a chestnut pudding. That is, each
time you put in your fork, you get
another chestnut. Only our fork
didn't unearth any chestnuts. But
there were plenty of other discov-
cries to make up for the lack of
chestnuts.
1t looked tame enough when the
waitress put it down expertly in
front of US. The meat was typi-
cally porky, an anemic gray, but
it had an appetizing appearance,
and we literally licked our chops.
Then we discovered, like other
pork dishes, that the portion given
us still had the hide, hair and all.
That wouldn't have stopped us
had we not learned, the next in
slant, that what we were eating
was a pigs snout! Now we have
seen pigs roofing in the dirt so
often that this revelation brought
on a very distasteful recollection.
But we forced back our nausea
and prodded deeper into the dish.
our fork struck something hard.
A bone. perhaps, we thought. So
imagine our surprise and shock
when we turned up a jaw bone
With the incest set of molars any
pig ever hadl
We have eaten nickel ham,
burgers in one-arm joints, and
10-course dinners in $5-a-plate
restaurants, but never before have
we been served with anything that
had less gustatory appeal. But
even the discovery of the teeth
was not the worst of it. Our next
find, we swear, actually fright
cned us. For there, staring at us
with a lcok that must have been
reproach, was the pigs eye!
NEEDLESS to say. we didn't
overeat at that dinner. After an
other look at the. meat in sar-
castle effort to find the pigs
squeal (why not Everything else
was thereD, we made hurried de-
parture and tried to think of love
and spring and honey and other
sweet things.

CHEAP WIRING OFTEN A
CRUEL DISAPPOINTMENT

Identification of a farm home
can be a bitter disappointment
if the wiring is ansafe and made
quate.
The disappointment is p%articu-
larly hard to bear if the family has
made a sacrifice to install electri-
city, said D. E. Jones, Extension
engineer at State College.
Yet families who have to make
a sacrifice are often the ones which
wire t .eir homes improperly in
their effort to cut down the ex-
pense, Jones continued.
No house should be wired until
the family has given a great deal
of thought to the use that will be
made of electric current at present
and in the future.
Then the advice of a competent
electrician. should be sought to de-
termine the type of wiring that
will give the greatest benefits,
Jones pointed out.
Even though only a few lights
and appliances will be used at first,
he went on, it is especially impor-
amt to remember that from time
to time the family will wish to add
new equipment.
The wiring should be adequate
to carry all the current that will
be needed, and the wires should be
so located as to provide sockets and
outlets at all points where lights
and appliances will be used.
Jones stated that he has yet to
find a family that thought it had
too many sockets and outlets. Most
of them feel that if they had the
job to do over, they would put in
more than they have.
The convenient location of
switches is another factor vital to
the fullest enjoyment and use of
electric power in the farm home.
Jones emphasized that although
it NAV cost a little more to put
in adequate wiring, it is much
cheaper to do it right the first time
than to tear out improperly install
ed wires and do the job over again.
