BURSTING BUDS MOCK KISS

Honolulu, (UP)-The kissing nois- es echoing through the halls of Queens Hospital herald love in bloom all right but not the common patient-nurse kind. The hints of osculation come from the rare Bombax tree as its curious banana shaped buds break into pink fuzzy blossoms.

.BEAUTY""----- Gl0rUyng
 Yourself
By Alicia Hart

While l was in Paris recently an extremely pretty French woman told me several beauty secrets in which her countrywomen have great faith.
 For instance, she said that eau de cologne, which the French use in lavish quantities after bathing, is valuable in a scalp treatment for excessively oily hair.
 "Oily hair must be washed once a week with greaseless, liquid shampoo. Then, every night be- tween shampooS, 1t should be brushed for five minutes. After ward the hair ought to be parted in sections and the scalp rubbed briskly with cotton pads which have been dipped in cologne containing at least 70 per cent alcohol.
 For dry, brittle hair, a pomade of beef marrow ought to be rubbed lightly into the scalp every other night" she continued. Here are her directions for making the prepara- tion:
 Melt four ounces of beef narrow in a double boiler. Then strain 1t through clean muslin cloth. Add one tablespoonful of olive oil and 8 few drops of your favorite per- fume. Pour into small jar and let cool.
 Remember, of course, that every head of hair needs to be brushed regularly and correctly. Whether you have an exceedingly dry or excessively oily scalp, never neg lect this bedtime routine. Place the

TODAY'S HEALTH QUESTION
 Q.-Is there any chemical solution which will help a per- son detect his own bad breath?
 A.-The substances causing the breath to be disagreeable vary in composition-if, indeed, all are known. It is quite i'm probable, therefore, that any single reagent can be prepared which would detect these sub- stances, particularly in the rel atively small amounts in which they occur. Probably the sense of smell of a person not af- flicted would be vastly more sensitive than any chemical.

THE STORY so FAR

A STRANGE premonition of disaster seized
~ Kathleen Bullitt as she set out on a
- cruise to the West Indies with her
mother. The presence on board ship of her
childhood friend. Trent KHgallen, cheered
Kathleen considerably. But when she met
handsome young Nadito Sanchez, Cuban
friend of Trent's, Kathleen was again dis
turbed by some inexplicable fear. 1t was
Nadito. who called Kathleen by the Spanish
diminutive of her name, "Catuca."
On the evening the ship lay over in Havana,
Trent and Kathleen went ashore and visited
several places Of interest suggested by Nadito.
Late at night, as she and Trent were returning
on foot to the ship, walking single file through
dark. narrow streets Kathleen suddenly
vanished without cry or trace.
Trent Immediately sought out Nadito, at
his home, and appealed for help.
Meanwhile, Kathleen was carried off to
remote plantation and locked in an apparently
deserted house. While exploring her prison
Kathleen discovered shower bath and, after
investigating to see that there was no one
in the house except herself, she undressed.
Just as she stepped from under the shower
she heard steps outside and mans voice
called: Who's there?"

The strange young man glanced
half defantly. half apologetically
at her, his eyes more mystified than curious
nice boy, Kathleen thought, sweet boy
with eyes like Bully's. Suddenly she felt no
longer frightened of him.
''You won't be long?" he asked
Only go quickly, and I'll show you," she
answered.
He gave quick nod and departed Watch
ing his long stride and the square way he
carried himself, Kathleen behed not a boy
but a man, and her brows gathered in a
thoughtful frown.
She closed the door and was soon dressed.
1t took time to touch up her eyelashes, but
her cheeks needed no added fire. She stepped
out into the patio hesitatingly. for she faced
a predicament of the mind. What would she
tell him = the preposterous truth? Already
she could hear his jeers.

Service Plan Found Practical In
 Other Communities
fife School Here-Deputy Superintendent Carson to Supervise General Training Course

Kreml will be authorized to proceed with the organization of the squad and 1t will be in actual operation within a week.
 Superintendent of Police William J. Roach said Lieutenant Kreml had completed the organization of squads in both Bridgeport and New Haven. Recent conferences with police department officials in both cities disclosed that the squads, al- though yet new to the work, were eminently satisfactory, he said.
 24-Hour Service
 In New Haven, according to the superintendent, two police cars at opposite ends of the city are kept on 24 hour duty. It is probable that the plan will be worked out here similarly. Lieutenant Kreml picks his men from 8 list of eligibles fur nished him by department heads. He conducts short, intensive course in first-aid work, compre- hensive reports and photography, where it is considered essential, then assigns the most apt of his pupils" to the squad.
 There is no cost to the depart ment for the services of the or ganizer. Lieut.. Kreml is on leave of absence from Evanston and is available to any police department requiring his service.
 The expense involved, it is un- derstood, is shared jointly by the International Association of Police Chiefs, and number of insurance companies.
 Plans are also proceeding for the new police school which all mem- bers of the department will be re- quired to attend, it was said today. The school will be under the super vision of Deputy Superintendent Daniel J. Carson, and will include daily setting up exercises in addi- ton to instruction in the varied phases of police duty. Deputy Su- perintendent Carson said the school sessions" would begin shortly.
 Guardian Proposed
 An interesting phase of the plans now in progress is the assignment to the school of policeman whose duty it will be to act as sort of guardian" to the children. This assignment, 1t was pointed out, is with no intention of frightening the children into good behavior. The officer, who has not yet been select ed, will investigate and attempt to settle amicably, all reported disturb ances among school children, thus eliminating as much as possible the necessity for arrests.

tOrian scribe has broadcast the following official announce ment:
 The Fifteenth Annual Dinner of the 3O4th Infantry AssOcia- ton of Waterbury to be held at Patsy Browns Grill on Satur- day evening, April 18th, seems to be the principal topic of con- versatiOn in town since the news broke a little over week ago. And why not, when most of the important celebrities of our community are on the Com mittee of Arrangements. Our genial Superintendent of Streets, Tom Fleming, is chairman of the banquet committee. Tom is ably assisted by such well known figures, as Ed Cass and Joe Phelan, our two popular police men, Fred Chesson, one of Waterbury's leading bankers, Finton Niver, classified as one of the big moguls down at Smith and Griggs, Billy Dillon, Com mander of the 304th, and one of the nattiest officers in the National Guard, Phil Kelly who now wears the Sam Brown belt, but who was listed as the lazi- est rookie at Camp Devenc some 19 years ago, and last. but not least, the soldier who broke fame and food to the boys of Com pany H, and who later won the battle of Camp POntanazen at Brest, Colemen (Gooney) O'LoughIin, now the esteemed Dog Warden of the City of Waterbury.
 The committee is very anx- iOus to impress upon the boys that there will be no shortage of food this year, for the very good reason that Eddie (BulD kee- nan is on a strict diet of crack CTS and lemon juice, per orders of Doctor Preston of the New ington Hospital.
 Some of the finest entertain ment available in Waterbury has been engaged to make it an evening long to be remembered by those in attendance, so sign up boys without delay. Tickets can be secured from any mem Der of the committee.
 A short business session will be held prior to the dinner. for the purpose of selecting officers who will guide the destinies of "Waterbury's Own," for the coming year. They say that the next pilot will be an officer or the law.
