YOu1" Children
By OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON

There is no greater brain ex- erciser in the world than questions and answers in any form whatso- ever.
 There are riddles, "as-me-an- others," cross word puzzles and pic lures to guess, as well as the car toons for children containing hid den objects in the intricate lines.
 Any and every one of these are not only brain developers and thought provokers, but their hold on interest makes them invaluable
 Children are always interested in the regulation l. o. questionaires used by schools for grading pur- poses. Anything they have to guess gives 8 fillip to imagination and elevates pride no end when they get the right answer.
 There is game that grownupS play occasionally when a party be- gins to die on their hands. This is to describe 8 simple object in a room, not too apparent, and make the others guess. Astonishing really how unobservant most people are.
 Spurs Interest in Reading
 One mother deliberately set a bait to get her teen-age children to read some of the classics i'll the li- brary.
 She related plot, and added that the first child to read that story and identify 1t, could take a trip with her later on. She was fair and named a dozen authors but those three read assiduously much of Shakespeare, Scott and Mark Twain as well as other notables in litera- ture. before Mary discovered that

David Elsmore" was the answer Don't feel too badly for the others because this is a versatile woman and the losers were given other chances.
 Children love to guess, however regardless of reward.
 On a rainy day, it takes no time at all to outline a few questions that are fair to all the children, regardless of age, based on school lessons past and present.
 Make Games Family Affairs
 Furthermore, it doesn't hurt to make it a family affair and show up father. Or, if dad makes up the list to give mother a chance to go to the foot of the class while Johnny stalks up to bed glowing with pride because he made 90.
 After all, we cannot call such games guessing" They are based on knowledge, on observation and deduction.
 Children love to use their wits, vest. They adore spelling bees, of course.
 Watch eyes shine and spirits pick up when there is something inter- esting to work on. The idle mind, the bored brain, is fertile ground for complaint and discoitent.

 If there is any history of diabetes in the family, it is desirable for all members of the family to undertake certain steps in the prevention of this condition.
 In the first place, members of the families in which there is diabetes should have regular examinations of the urine at least once every six months to detect the presence of sugar at the earliest possible mo- ment. If the condition is detected early, it is quite possible to keep 1t will under control.
 One of the most important steps in preventing the appearance of diabetes, is control of the weight, particularly after middle age. Con- trol of body weight is largely mat ter of what we call physiologic book keeping. Limiting sugar and starch, and lowering the amount of fat in the diet by limiting butter, cream, oil and the fat of meat will help to stop the development of overweight.
 People get fat when they eat more than they use up in the activities of their bodies. Thus, after middle age, when we lower greatly the amount Of exercise and keep right on eating, we are likely to become 0verweidght.
 There are certain changes in our habits which develop because of changing circumstances which may be associated with the rapid devel- opment of overweight and against which people with tendency to

 The rules that 8 truly smart woman follows when buying clothes are the ones by which to be guided when replenishing the cosmetic cabinet. In other words, instead of going in for dozens of items that will be opened only now and then, put all the budget allows into few excellent preparations, then use them regularly and exactly accord ing to directions.
 Generally speaking, a large box of fine face powder will last more than a year. In the long run, the large size will prove to be less ex- petlSive than three or four little boxes, ordered from time to time. Decide right now whether you want cream rouge or dry, light lipstick or dark, an all-purpose cream or a set consisting of cleansing and night creams, a tonic or mild astringent These are essentials.
 A young girl who never has had her own cosmetics ought to order O AoA SC WA OA tA1C UCSt 1dCG pOWuCI she can buy in a shade which matches exactly the tone of her complexion before she gets sun- tanned even a little. Also rouge and lipstick to ilarmonize with natural blood tones, a mild tonic and an all purpose cream. After she has learned to get these on correctly, she can decide wnether or not she needs foundation lotion or cream.
 Later on in the summer, tiny box of dark suntan powder and Q darker lipstick will be in order. The dark powder can be mixed with the regular shade until the desired color is obtained. Simply put the light and small amount of the dark through an old-fash- toned flour sitter. Keep on adding dark and using the sitter until the right color is obtanied. As you get more and more tan, sift more dark powder with the darker mixture al- ready made. In the fall after the tan has disappeared, go back to the regular shade, saving the other un- til next summer.

OUR FRIENDS THE DENToRs

OUR FRIENDS THE DENTORS The first school of dentistry was opened in America less than a hun dred years ago-the first dental school in all the world. American dentists today are the best educated and the most skilful in all the world.
 Prior to 1899, when the Baltimore College oi Dental Surgery was opened, there were no dentists. Just doctors, who extracted teeth or treated toothache and even at tempted more difficult dental opera tions, as an incidental of general medical practice.
 never have and never will call a dentist "Dentor," except maybe an intimate friend in fun. Had let ter today from a dentor who says he has been reader of my articles for years and 1t is only my unadul- terated egotism that prompts him to express himself at this time. Then he gives me good spanking for my one-man movement to restrict the BUSINESS use of the title Doctor to legally licensed, practicing phySi- cianS-who had 1t exclusively until the dentists broke away from the medical profession-and to compel practitioners of dentisty who are not legally licensed physicians to use "Dentor" or some such designation to make known their trade. Like several other irked members of the dental profession this one proposes that physicians give up the title of Doctor" as a trademark and call themselves "Medico."
 The founding of the first dental school was mistake, and the age old narroW-m of the med ical profession of the day was to blame for it. A physician, Dr. Har- ris, had applied to several medical schools to found dental chairs or departments and teach oral or den- tai pathology along with regular medicine, thus to equip physicians who might elect to practice the spe- cial branch of medicine known as dentistry. But the near sighted big guns of the medical profession couldn't see the wisdom of such a course, and Dr. Harris therefore es- tablished the Baltimore school of dentistry which began instruction in 184O.
 Bowed with the weight of less than century they stand, these dentors, and, like the camel that got his head inside the tent, they have the gall to propose that physi- clans give up their 5,0OO-years-old trademark!
 Seriously, good many of the fin- est dentists agree with me that the time has come to close all dental schools and let students who wish to practice dentistry take their training in a regular medical school, graduate as bona fide M. D.'s and then pursue such special or techni- cal courses as may be required to prepare them to practice that spe- cialty of medicine. It is unjustifi- able extravaganza and waste to maintain separate schools now. In fact the student in a first-class den- tai school receives virtually the same education that the student in a first-class medical school receives.
 That's all I mean when I call dental practitioner a dentor.
 No one has greater respect for or of the value of the dentor's work than have. I sin cerely believe that American den- tiSts contribute as much toward health conservation and health bet terment as any other specialists do.

65 ASSISTANTS
 FOR GIRLS CAMP

With 65 girls having registered for Camp Wequapauset, local Girl Scout camp, during the coming sum- mer season, the local officials said today that they feel that the camp will see an excellent enrolment this year. It was explained today by Miss Evaline Hauser, assistant executive that these 65 girls were registered during the past two weeks and that already the two weeks set aside ex- cluSively for Brownies" (younger girls) have been all filled.
 It was announced at the local of- flee today that Mrs. Frances Phil- lips, chairman of the camp com mittee, represented the local council yesterday at state meeting of camp committee chairmen in New Haven.
 On Thursday morning of next week, under the direction of Mrs. J. Warren Upson, there will be a special session of the finance com- mittee. As far as could be learned today the meeting will be sort of preliminary affair in connection with the annual drive for the Girl Scouts next year. Other financial matters will also be discussed at the session.
 A report was also released at the ofice today that within the week final announcement in regard to the permanent infirmary building which is to be erected on the camp site will be made through the camp committee.
 A number of Waterbury Girl Scouts will take part in, the local Memorial Day parade.

Whole Family Should Be Examined
 When Diabetes Evidence Is Found
T. M. Reg. U. s. Pat. or.

, diabetes should be warned particu- larly.
 A boy of a diabetic family who has been exercising regularly may break his leg. He is kept flat on his back for from Six to eight weeks, during which time friends bring him candy and pasteries. He rap idly becomes overweight without exercise and diabetes appears. A foreman on a gang working in the field is assigned to a desk job and promtly develops diabetes. A football player. after graduation, stops all his exercise, gains 30 pounds, and develops diabetes.
 Diabetes comes on insidiously. Many times a person who has never had symptom is suddenly in- formed by the examiner for the life insurance company that he has the disease.
 In people who are particularly careleses about themselves, the first sign of the disease may be a sud- den attack of unconsciousness. This is very bad, because 1t is a sign that the disease has advanced far without being discovered.
 It is dificult for the average per- son to understand that overweight may be associated with the appear ance of diabetes. because most of the diabetics whom he knows have suffered a rapid loss of weight.
 That is the significant fact about the disease. No matter how much the person eats. he loses weight simply because his body is unable to use the material. With this loss of weight. as has been mentioned, there is great thirst, excessive uri- nation, and a ravenous appetite.

 Life in the open has its points. Still there's nothing so nice as a hot dinner plate. When the gang packs up for an all-day picnic, don't let the great open spaces leave empty spots in the stomach. Listen to the seasoned wisdom of the Girl Scouts outfit. When the June breeze sings through the woods, its voice will be sweeter for mess of dried beef chow.
 Dried Beef Chow on Toast
 (For 10 hungry Girl Scouts or their brothers)
 One pound dried beef, 4 teaspoons melted fat, pint tomato pulp, 5 eggs, teaspoon paprika, 1-2 tea spoon dry mustard, 2 cups grated cheese, toast.
 Cut the dried beef into bits, turn into hot fat in camp frying pan. Add the tomato pulp, paprika and mustard. Stir while the chow is get- ting piping hot. Beat the eggs lust fly. Add cheese and eggs to pan and stir with rolled-up sleeves in- tensely. When your chew is as thick as cream, make toast, butter 1t, cover with the sauce and sound the mess call.
