THROUGH A %nnanls nls Eyes By JEAN NEWTON
MARITAL BRAKES

A CHICAGO judge who has had 4O,- "A 900 cases of marital disputes be- fore him and reconciled 2,OOO of the couples, feels that he knows something about why people go to the divorce courts and-more impOrtant-h0w they can be kept out of them.
 At the bottom of most marital un- happiness, this Judge Sa bath of Chi cago finds, are trlvialities. ''Such a simple thing as wife waving good-by to her husband when he goes to work in the morning would avert good many diiorces," he says.
 And most important among all his conclusions. is the conviction that most people want to do the right thing" Therefore the usual, trivial causes of trouble can be defeated by just observing a few simple rules: Here they are:
 1. Have patience with each other
 2. Work together, play together, grow up together.
 8. Tn all disputes avoid excited talk.
 4. Do not conceal little differences until they accumulate to the breaking point; discuss them calmly.
 5. Be frank with each other.
 6. Sympathy and mutual understand. ing are the pillars of the home.
 z. Share responsibilities.
 8. Establish home of your own.
 g.. Make your bedtime prayers review of the day and never go to sleep without clean slate.
 Certainly these are all very simple things, and none of the rules is start lingly new. If they are the answer to marital peace and happiness, and most of us will readily agree why are they individually not more frequently observed?
 Doubtless because they are simple

enough and seem easy enough while everything is going smoothly. It Is when they are most needed however when there is resentment and dissen- tiOn and hOtheadedness, that these simple remedies are not so easy to observe. It is like telling a vehicle that is rolling rapidly down hill to be reasonable in turning the corner.
 That, you may say, is what we have brakes for. And that is exactly how married people should use such set of rules-as brakes, when they feel things going down hill. Once they stop you, the rest is simple enough. What they tell you to do Is really what you want to do. It's the stop. ping to think about it that Is the big thing.

PETER AND NIMBLEHEELS
 COMPARE TAILS

DETER RABBIT always has been interested in tails. He just can't help it. You see, he hasn't much of tail himself, so when he meets anyone whose tail is short he always has a friendly feeling. And when he meets one with long tail he always is wee bit envious. Peter Is like great many people in that he always wants what he hasn't got.

 Of Its Owner Peter Had Ever Seen. Nlmbleheels the Jumping Mouse. It was the longest tail for the size of it's owner that Peter ever had seen. It was more than twice as long as the body of Nimbleheels, and il was slim and tapering. As he looked at 1t Peter couldn't help wondering how :. was possible for Nimbleheels to make such very big jumps when he had to take such'.i long tail as that with him. It was this which led him at last to ask Nlmbleheels if that tail didn't bother him when he jumped.
 "Certainly not declared Nimble- heels very emphatically. "If I didn't have such long tail wouldn't be able to make such long jumps"
 Peter looked as surprised as he felt. ''Tor goodness sake!" he exclaimed. ''What has your tail got to do with your jumping? I'm a pretty good jumper myself. or thought l was until met you, but my tail doesn't have anything to do with my jumping"
 Nimbleheels laughed. It was n funny, thin, high, squeaky, little laugh. "No," said he, q shouldn't think |: could have much to do with your Jumping"
 Peter grinned and looked over his shoulder at the funny little bunch of cotton he calls tail. "No," he agreed cit isn't much as tails go. and it isn't of any use in jumping. All the same it is very useful and don't know how I would get along without it."
 Nimbleheels pricked up his ears and looked interested. "Is that really so?"

TWO CONCERNS BID

~ the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, September 10.-Two
companies offered yesterday to build a
new queen for the merchant fleet OF
the United States Lines, and their
bids were sped to Washington for
study.
The New York Shipbuilding Corp.
OF Camden, N. j., and the Federal
Shipbuilding Corp. of Kearny, N. j..
submitted offers to construct a liner
Of the same size as the Manhattan
and the Washington-speedy passen-
ger and cargo boats, which are not
in the class of the super liners of
France and England.
The bids went to Secretary Roper
Of the Department of Commerce, who
returned recently from a European
trip on which he had used the Man
haitian and the Washington. The
Secretary said then the United States
needed more ships like those.
The New York Shipbuilding Corp.
hid $12,995,000 to build duplicate
OF the Washington and $13,O95, 900
for the same kind of a ship with i'm
proved engines in 80 months.
The Federal Corp. offered to build
an improved type of ship the size of
the Washington for $16,500,000. For
another 81 ,o00,0 900, the company said.
