the Mrs. Anna Register place and that
Mrs. j. H. Thompson wrote about sew
eral weeks ago. His parents were the
late Mr.. and Mrs. William G. Rogers
who were both born in Person coun-
ty, but settled at Oak Hill when they
were married, and both lived there
for fifty-five years.
D. T., Jr., is a rising junior of V.
P. l. at Blacksburg, Va. Both the men
are very stout and healthy looking
and upon questioning what they ate,
the elder replied that when asked
that question, he always answered
peanuts.
Had not seen Miss Ora Garrett for
a year or SO until | met her at Hen
derson. She is brothers daughter
of the late j. L. Garrett, for whom
worked in his grocery store some
years ago.
And at the garage saw Irving Mutt
working on Stanley Ellington's car.
Had not spoken to Stanley since last
winter when he was over to our town.
I don't believe he has worked a bit
this summer, as he is too fat and
healthy looking to have put out much
work during all that hot weather.
And then 1 saw Claude Crews and
his son, Mac, talking to Ray Wyche,
l asked them if they were plotting
against the poor, but don't know what
they we're up 70.
Coming back out of town lady
waved at us from a car. / finally rec
ognized her to be Mrs. Clyde Robbins,
wife of the Rev. Clyde Robbins, of Ra-
leigh She is a niece of Miss A. Daniel
Marrow of Marrow's Chapel COM
munity. and was formerly Miss Eloise
Sorrell, of Chapel Hill. Miss Eloise
played the piano at the Salem meet
ing several years ago.
Clement Fakes and M. M. Daniel
have returned from ten-day motor
trip to Canada. They went up to De-
troit to see Clements brother, Elvin
About halfway to Detroit, the broth
ers unbeknowingly passed each other
and did not see each other except for
left for home, after Clement had re-
turned to his home.
! At Delhi they saw Oscar Tingen,
Forest Longmire, and Cooper DEMENT,
who have lived in Canada for years.
and who were raised here in Gran
vile. Norman and Edible DEMENT, are
also in Canada for the season curing
tobacco, with their wives. They took
supper with Cooper and his wife one
night They also saw William Crews
and Harold Bradsher who are up
there They reported very nice trip.
I wonder if any one else has had
a nice trip they could write and tell
us about.

.BEAUTY~ GIorifing
 Yourself
By Alicia Hart

The woman who is serious about keeping her skin smooth, clear and youthfully firm knows that tonlng and lubricating as well as proper cleansing routines are all important. She keeps her complexion scrupul- ously clean, of course, but in addi- tion, she uses skin tonic and soften ing creams, appreciates the results of ice water riTses, proper massage and exercises for facial muscles. At night, after she has washed her face and neck, she slaps on very cold water until her skin is pink and tingling. If she prefers skin tonic to ice water she puts it on vigorously and lets it dry be- fore applying night cream. Inci- dentlly, she always keeps her bottle of skin tonic in the ice box.
 Night cream goes on with upward and outward strokes from the base of throat to hairline. Here are di- rectionS for the throat and facial exercises she does before removing the cream:
 Stand or sit erect with arms at sides. Relax neck and let head fall backward as far as possible, mean while opening your mouth. Now, slowly close mouth and making mus cles at sides of the neck do the work, life head until back of the neck is straight. Feel the muscles of your throat stretch and pull. Re- peat five times.
 Fill your cheeks with air then slowly blow the air out through your lips. Repeat five times. This discourages downward lines from corners of the nose and mouth.
 With thumbs and forefingers, grasp the tip of yoCr chin gently pinching skin and the flesh beneath it. Continuing the pinching move mentS, work fingers and thumbs out ward along jawbone to ears. Repeat eight times. This routine tends tO eliminate double chin.
 To get rid of vertical lines on your brow, place finger tips squarely be- tween the lines and massage out ward to sides of the forehead. Then pat the lines for a few seconds, ap- plying more night cream if, by this time, the first layer has just about disappeared. Horizontal lines across the forehead also should be patted.
 For Eye Wrinkles
 Place tips of third fingers at in- side corners of eyes, then lightly massage around and around gently working cream into lids and hatten- ing out the fine lines at outside corners and underneath eyes. Re- peat for thirty seconds.
 Finish the treatment by batting throat and sides of the neck-al- ways batting upward, of course. Af- terward, remove the cream with soft tissues. Next morning, cleanse with soap and water if your skin is oily with cleansing cream if it is. dry. Rinse several times with very cold water before applying foundation To- ton and makeup.

that he hasn't grown up. tired of being told he is lazy and won't help, and fast losing faith in both mother and father who have turned into heartless critics, nurses secret re- sentiment. Watch for it. It may ac- count for the distressingly bad tem- per or the failure to study.
 Kindness Tempers Discipline
 This state of affairs will go on to a destruction of mutual love and that happy condition known as confidence" unless you, mother, and you, father, shrewdly mix kind- ness and good nature with restric- tions, and allow just enough liberty to satisfy at least a part of that consuming restlessness.
 A boy cannot learn overnight how to meet the world. Nor can girl. Little by little they should be al- lowed to try new ways and learn what to do with freedom when they get it.
 Young adolescents need kind ness and sympathy for another req son, too. They just need 1t that's all. They are lonely. They are un- sure, too, if we could see their hearts. They are almost pitifully grateful for tender words, although they pretend indifference. The par. ent who holds the love and grati- tude of the young adolescent is dO- ing grand thing. It is now that faith iy, y,aoY1lo and fhif1ps either withers away or remains fragrant to beautify the years to come.

Mrs. Barton ups. They are In between. Straining to act older than they are, the days are filled with Don't do that: Wait until you are older";; When I was your age wasn't allowed to go out after dark; You are too young for parties of that sort"
 Discipline Greater Now
 Many of these warnings are nec- essary. Sometimes a spirited young ster, represSed on one count, im- mediately breaks out in another direction. He becomes completely surrounded by a ring of "Dont's" and Waits" and Nos" A few docile children need no second re- minding. It all depends, naturally. upon disposition and circumstances.
 Yet, all in all, it is an age of suppression, greater than that of early years when submission was natural state. Growing minds, growing hungers and developing personalities crave action and free dom. The tendency, of course, is not to add to work or responsibility, but to go in hard for interesting experiences that are sweeter because they're new.
 As result, clashes will come. Parents lose patience and temper. The child, tired of being reminded

WHAT YOUR DENTOR PRE- SCRIBES FOR YOUR TEETH

WHAT xOOR OECN AOAs AS
 SCRIBES FOR YOUR TEETH In a symposium on the relation of the teeth to health, in which sev- eraI doctors and dentors part1cl- pated-oh, well, say physicians and dentists if you pretend you don ' understand-some of the soundest practical observations were offered bv dentors. But toward the end the dean of the dentors felt it incum- bent upon him to utter a word of caution to his colleagues. He feared a dentor might incur the dis pleasure of doctors if the dentor at tempted to tell his patient what to eat in order to promote sound teeth; he even opined that it might not be construed as within the legal rights of the dentor to prescribe for a patent.
 Now, I ask you, isn't that a de- plorable situation? If the education and training the law requires in the individual who seeks a license to practice dentistry does not qualify the individual to prescribe whatever diet or medicine he thinks his pa tient should have, then 1t is high time to. close all so-called dental schools or colleges and let students who expect to practice dentistry complete their training first as doc tors of medicine, and then they will be qualified to do whatever doc tor should do for his patient. If the dentors themselves, or their leaders, doubt the competence Of a dentor to give his patient the ad- vice and treatment the patient pre- sumably pays for, am out of bounds when I urge a needed re- form in professional education?
 Dentor or Doctor, the best of 'em today takes advantage of every op- portunity to instruct parents upon the value and importance of seeing that children and youths in their teens get adequate amounts of calcium and phosphorus daily and also good ration of sunshine vita min D to insure utilization of the calcium and phosphorus for build- ing strong, sound, even teeth and preventing carries or decay.
 I have monograph on High Calcium Phosphorus Diet, Calcium Feeding, Vitamins Everybody Needs flor copy send stamped en- velope bearing your address.
 In England competent authorities who have studied the problem in- tensively for years conclude that the time of greatest need for calcium and vitamin D is during the period from the tenth to the eighteenth year of life.
 I hope my dentor readers, If any. will remember this and give their young patients, as well as parents, better service for the conservation

Interesting service may intrigue the small child into eating his meals without protest-perhaps his own silver and his very own special dish. An amusingly decorated plate with the hange widened on each side to accommodate small-sized spoon and fork, in one gift package, would make fine Christmas or birthday presents for small members of the family.
