ROAMING THE AIR WAVES

At least one amateur on Major Bowes' Amateur Hour to be heard over the WABC-C Columbia network tonight from goo to 10:00 p. m., EST will have nerves of steel when he comes up for his trial as national entertainer.
 In fact, not only will he have nerves of steel, his entire makeup will consist of the stuff. He is Big Looie", a mechanical man built by two Detroit auto mechanics. And in addition to walking, talking and singing, he also can play the accor- dion-and will during the broadcast.
 Big Looie'', constructed by John and Patrick Rizzo, has been six years in the making. The Brothers Rizzo figure that they've spent more than 10000 hours of their spare time and all their spare money on him.
 The mechanical man, who willsv1e with other entertainers, less well equipped nervouSly, stands six feet, two inches tall; weights 185 pounds, and will be dressed in clothes espe- cially tailored for him by the Rizzo brothers. His body is constructed of steel tubing and he's activated by six specially wired motors-two in his legs, two in his arms and two in his body. The legs can move for ward and backward and in a circu- lar fashion. The motors in his arms permit him to extend and squeeze his pearl-plated accordion, as well as move his fingers for pushing in the individual notes.
 Whether Big Looie" can also smile at the results of the voting for this particular Amateur Hour re- mains to be seen.

toast is given in honor OF your
birthday, what should you do,
or say?
2. When visiting at a home
you go to every day what should
you say when leaving? S.
l. When the toast is proposed,
you do not rise and you do not
lift your glass. When the others
rise and lift their glasses in the
toast to you, you graciously
smile your appreciation of the
compliment.
After the toast has been
drunk, you may, if you wish,
rise and say sentence or two
about your happiness in this
occasion, about your apprecia-
ton of the friendliness and
thoughtfulness of the guests in
planning such a delightful party
to celebrate your birthday.
2. "Good-by. I've had such a
happy time" or LAS always, I've
had such a good time with you
today" or Its been so delight
full this afternoon thank
you" something like this, to
express your appreciation.

of wedding would be correct
for her? M.
Under these circumstances it
would be extremely poor taste
for the bride to plan a large
wedding. Simplicity should be
the keynote of such a wedding.
The bride might have one at
tendant or she may have none.
Only members of the immediate
families and close friends are
invited to the wedding. The
bride usually wears an afternoon
street dress or ensemble and
hat, or very often she wears her
travelling dress or suit After
ward there may be small we'd
ding breakfast or luncheon or
dinner, or the simplest of after
noon teas.

The greater number Of the

admitted that, for themselves,
they expect to stop with a fam

At the same time, the general
feeling was that the one-child

Indeed, there's getting to be

1ue Ol0-t taSnlOne0 AltGIe NLIH
WHEN I was a little fellow We
w used to have little girls,
legions Of hthem. What I mean
by little girls are those Of the
feminine sex that were IL, 13,
IA and even IS, and acted their
age, minus permanents, sans
lipstick and sexless. Where are
the little girls Of today? We
don't seem to have any. One
day Mary or Jane is q mere
baby and the next day she gets
a permanent and a beau.
I can well remember how we
detested the little girls while
we felt attracted to them. They
were such nosey, sly little per-
sons and what tattle-tales! They
hated us cordially as dirty,
nasty boys but they couldn't
keep away from us.
When they gave parties they
invited us and Immediately we
began plotting mischief to spoil
their parties. They seemed to
be so smart in school, always
knowing the right answers. We
swore to shock them, scare them
with bugs and worms. But the
funny part Of it all was, they
were our girls and in q way our
sweethearts.
Miss Something
Today
Modern boys miss a lot by not
having that kind of girls in their
lives. It was a sort of seXless
period where we got nearer girls,
without thinking too much
about sex. Maybe we did hurl
insults at each other about them,
calling each other sissies and
so forth for walking with them.
It was great sport to chant
"Johnny's got a gu-url, John
ny'S got gu-url."
It is a far cry to the modern
age of sex-wise little girls who
talk about their figures" like
grown-ups and are aware Of
what snug-fitting clothes do to
the average boys emotions. I'd
like to return to the old-fash-
ioned type of little girl who was
unaware of sex as a power she
possessed, and whose relation
ship with boys was the banter
ing, teasing, squabbling, but
wholesome thing it uesd to be.
This article was inspired by q
letter from a teen-age miss who
Graves advice on how to act
when with boys and what to do
about late hours. Both these
subjects should be a matter OF
family training. But I will grant
the youngsters request and give
her some articles on them later
on. She is a little older than my
little girl, discussed today, but
I warrant you she has been sex
conscious for some time and her
youth has made her insure Of
how she should conduct herself.
Another Puppy
Love Affair
Dear Mr.. Antheil: This may
sound silly but I am IA and
simply crazy over a boy II. He
doesn't seem to care for me,
but said he would like to ask me
to go out, but is afraid I would
refuse. wouldn't refuse. I try
to get my mind off of him, but
can't. PERPLEXED.
Your session of muShlneSS
over the older boy won't hurt
and it won't last, so don't worry
about it. Fourteen-year-olds go
into tailspins over nice boys,
which is a part of their growing
up. It will bother you-but deli
ciously.

What
To Do

Here Is what you can do: Pro
tect the hair with a towel, then
cover the face with mineral oil
or an oily cleasing cream, and,
while this is softening the dry
surface, prepare an oatmeal
pack. Take a heaping table
spoonful of the powdered oat-
meal and mix to a thin paste
with milk. For a naturally oily
skin use witch hazel instead of
milk. Spread it over the face
and neck and leave it on for 10
minutes, then remove with a
fresh washcloth and warm
water. Rub dry with a turkish
towel, after which you will apply
a tissue cream with the regu-
lar massage movements. Two
of these treatments should be
enough to restore the original
Snoothness to the skin.
You may haze nly "FGciGl
Massage Movements" or the
prepared Facial Packs for
Dry or Oily Skin." There is
no charge for either, but please

Prefer,
Small Families

Women really aren't becoming
less maternal, after all, accord
ing to their own statements.
There's as much love in the
world for babies as there ever
was; perhaps more. It's only
that women aren't emulating
their great-grandmotherS for two
main reasons. One is that they
think small families are wiser
and they have the knowledge,
denied to those great-grand-
mothers, of limiting the num-
Der of their children. Birth
control is, as you would expect,
a powerful factor.
These rollicking families OF
from 10 to 16 boys and girls
must have been rather jolly, it
is true-for the children. And
exhilarating, too, for the popula-
ton countesr. But those prolific
mothers, exhausted by excessive
maternity, often died in middle
age, and the mortality among
children themselves was lar
greater then than now.

Apple
Tart

Make a plain paste. as for pie.
Heat pared, cored and quartered
apples in two oval vegetable
dishes that have flat rims. Each
dish should hold about two
quarts. Sprinkle over them
half a teaspoon Of grated nut
meg and one teaspoon Of lemon
rind, one cup sugar and one
third cup water. Cover with the
paste about haif an inch thick.
Prick in several places with a
fork. Bake in a moderate oven
for three-quarters Of an hour.
Serve with cream and sugar.

Child-BeGring
More Expensive

Children, too, are a good deal
more expensive than they used
to be and this the second reason
why American women now say
they believe in limited families.
Formerly, on arriving in the
world, a child was more or less
invited to take its chances. Now
the medical care necessary for
a child, added to its education,
to say onthing of its food and
clothing, involve a pretty con-
siderable sum. And incomes,
wadays, are flutcuating
things.
So. if the average American
woman, as revealed by this sur
vey, believes that the ideal FAM
lily consists of four children,
that need not mean she is plan
ming such a family for her
self. No, shetemporizeS. Indeed,
she is probably forced to temper
ize. Lets do our duty, first, by
