Glorityimg Yourself
 Bv ALICIA HART
By ALICIA HART

who never has to ask the one and only maid in her hostess household to stop and press dress before ar rival day dinner and you'll be con- vinced that it isn't silly to take two bags that aren't really full instead of one that is stuffed to the bulg- ing point.
 You don't have to be an eXpe- rienced ladies maid to learn to fold dresses correctly. Simply place any garment front down on bed or the floor, fold the sides from shoul- ders to hem toward each other at the back Now lay smooth sheet of tissue paper over the dress and crush two more sheets-one to go into each sleeve. Smooth the sleeves down along the folds at the back. If the suitcase is long, fold the dress only once. If short, fold it twice. always putting paper between the second layer.
 If you are going to buy new lug gage, consider at least one bag with special dress hangers in the cover. And you might look at the square types that are high enough to keep hats from getting crushed and which have space for shoes all around the sides.
 Incidentally, the minute you ar- rive, take all of your clothes out of the bags and hang them on the shower rod in the bath room. Fill the tub half full of hot water, close the door and leave the clothes there to steam. Within an hour, the ma jority, if not all, of the wrinkles will have disappeared.

TREATMENT FOR INFECTED
 TONSILS

Aside from the risk involved in major operation and general anes- thesia in any case, victims of the tonsil and adenoid operation, if they recovered without serious complica- tions, too often failed to experience any evident benefit For example, removing adenoids had no appre- ciable effect on the mouth breath ing, expressionless face and dull mentality the old timers so readily attributed to adenoid "vegetationS" or growth" Probably other condi- tions obstructing or restricting the breathing are more frequently re- sponsible for such symptoms-for instance, simple chronic rhinitiS, hypertrophic rhinitis (thickening of turbinates), faulty development of upper jaw and other bones of the face.
 Some old timers still remove ton sils by the guillotine and snare method. Some dissect them with scalpel and scissors. Some "enuv- leate" them, that is, shell them out with the fingers and cut only the stem or root through which the ves- vels, lymphatics and nerves enter or leave the tonsil. Some use local anesthesia; some nerve block (in- jecting the anestheSia into the stem or root of the tonsiD; but most nose and throat doctors who learned their trade before the war still pre- fer general anesthesia. In view of the risks involved in general anes- thesia and the risk of hemorrhage, general septicemia, or lung abscess following operation, tonsillectomy by any method is a major opera ton.
 Six years ago I asked newspaper readers to vote on these questions: l. Have you had your tonsils re- moved surgically? If so, what is your opinion of the operation and the results? g. Have you had your tonsils extirpated with diathermy- electrocoagulation? If so, what is your opinion of diathermy and it's results? The vote tabulated as fol- lows: Against the old Spanish method, 51; in favor of it, 66; against the diathermy method, 30 in favor of it, 286. I think that is fairly representative; fairer by a long sight than the baised views of doctors or specialists themselves.
 Whichever treatment may be em- ployed in the treatment of enlarged or infected tonsils, warn the pub lie against the type of doctor or specialist, be he merely an old timer day, who pretends it is essential to remove or eradicate every bit of tonsil tissue from the throat in any case of enlarged or infected tonsils The truth is that no method is likely to be so thorough as that in actual practice, and as matter of scientific medicine and common sense it is neither necessary nor advisable to attempt to remove all tonsil tissue in such circumstances. It is the focus of infection in the tonsil, not the normal tonSil tissue, that endangers or injures health. If this focus or area of infection is pasteurized, sterilized, disinfected or removed, that is the essential purpose of treatment, and the method which achieves the object with the least discomfort, danger nd disability or detention from work or business would seem to merit the choice of well informed people.

AVACADOS IDEAL SUMMER
 SALAD

AyacadoS, either by themselves or combined with other fruits, are a refreshing summer salad ingredient, Select fruit which has a fresh ap- pearance and which feels somewhat firm or just beginning to soften. Avoid fruit that is bruised or has broken skin, since spoilage may have set in underneath. The flesh should be tender with a marrow quality, the flavor subtle, rich, ra- ther nut-like. Avacados differ in size and shape, as well as color of skin, and are at their best for eat ing when the flesh is fairly soft, but not mushy. Good quality fruit may be bought and allowed to ripen in warm place; kept cool and dry, rip ening is less rapid.

CONVENIENT LIDDED UTENSIL

Handy is the word for new type of aluminium cooking utensil in which food can be stirred, seasoned or drained without removing the lid. Turning the knob on the cover in opposite directions opens space for seasoning or stirring, or dis closes colander-like perforations for draining.

weighing an appeal of ruling handed
down yesterday by Judge Charles w.
Woodward in Circuit Court at Rock
vile, Md, upholding the validity of a.
foreclosure sale Of the Colt home at 7

the Home Owners Loan Corp.
The two elderly spinster sisters re-
ceived loan on their 15-room family
home in 1888. and subsequently asked.
for another loan to remodel the house
to enable them to take in roomers to
provide means for repaying both loans

Monday, their attorney. s. Jay Nc
Cathran, jr, contended H. o. L. c.
officials promised to make the loan,
pointing out that the sisters would
have no other means of repaying the
mortgage without revnue from rents.
The H. o. L. C.. foreclosed in Octo-
Der, 1896, bidding $4,000 for the prop;
erty, approximately the amount of the
loan. The case has been In litigation
since that time, attorneys for the
Misses Colt maintaining refusal of the
reconditioning loan prevented their
repaying the mortgage.
I'VE are considering an appeal, al
though have not been officially ad-
vised of the courts ruling" Mr.. Nc
Cathran said. However, we have not
decided what will be the best course to
pursue. I don't know what will be-.

Compound Tested
At Hopkins Makes
Men Young Again,
Boards Take on Ne,c
CrO,uth and Voices
Become Deeper.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
BALTIMORE, March 5.-A years
clinical testing of chemical COM
pound called testosterone has proved
to two Johns Hopkins Hospital physi-
clans that men can be made young
again.
Results Of the effects the rejuvenat-
ing fluid had on II patients were de-
scribed to meeting Of the medical and
chirurgical faculty last night by DR..
Samuel A. Vest and his collaboration,
DR.. John Eager Howard.
The physicians reported after careful
study Of the patients treated with the
drug that they had seen boards take
on aew growth, dry skin become oily
and ruddy and voices deepen. In some
cases, they said, normal male faculties
were rejuvenated.
The rejuvenating fluid, first made
in Switzerland two years ago, is q
synthetic male sex hormone "a chem
ical product Of an organ that activates
another organ through the blood
stream).
To maintain the effects of the re-
juvenator. patients must continue
using the compound, the physicians
said, since the body quickly uses up
the synthetic hormone. The compound
was described as much more effective
than trausplanted glands.

up men departed police car cruised
by, Mr.. Schultz said. He hailed it
and gave description of the bandits.
He said he could identify them by
their voices.
Il am certain the police will catch
these men," the Representative said.
He accepted the robbery philosoph-
ically, saying these things are bound
to happen"
Was on Crime Committee.
Mr.. Schultz, as a member of the
special House committee that investi-
gated crime conditions in the Capital
several years ago and currently as
chairman of a special District sub
committee on traffic, long has been in
close contact with the police depart
ment.
He led opposition that recently
killed an amendment offered by
Representative Dirksen of Illinois,
during House consideration of the
1889 District supply bill, for adding
81 men to the police force. He said
then he believed hiring civilians for
clerical work and releasing uniformed
policemen now at desk jobs for regu-
lar police work would make the force
adequate.
His experience this morning did
not change his mind on this point,
he said, but did put him "in complete
sympathy" with proposal by Repre-
sentative Nichols of Oklahoma for
law providing the death penalty for
armed hold-ups.
Il shall 60 along with that proposal
and insist that it be passed." Mr..
Schultz said. 1T seems the only way
to get rid of these hold-ups. I be-
lieve knowledge that they faced the
death penalty if caught would keep
armed bandits off the streets
Mr.. Schultz took an active part in
the work Of the Crime Investigating
Committee, which was headed by Rep
resentative Randolph of West Vir-
ginia, criticizing some police actions
at that time.
Detective Sergts. James Tolson of
the robbery squad and L. M. Wilson
made a preliminary investigation of
the robbery of Mr. Schultz Immediately
after it was reported. They were said
to have obtained clues that police
hoped would lead to prompt arrest Of
the bandits.
Inspector Thompson, assistant chief
OF detectives, assigned Detective Sergts.

credited with breaking some of the
most important robbery cases in the
District during recent months. to aid

IN detailed investigation of the case.

"a loot. and 27 other robberies and
house-breakings in which loot aggre-
gated $873.10, were reported here

at Meeting Addressed by
L. r. Barrett.

Formation Of a citizens joint COM
mittee on recreation was voted unani-
mously by the Citywide Playground
Council at its meeting in the United
States Chamber of Commerce Build
ing last night.
The motion was made by James E.
Schwab, chairman of the Legislative
Committee, who said invitations will
be sent to various civic groups to par
ticipate.
The motion was adopted after the
group had heard Lewis r. Barrett,
co-ordinator of recreation, describe
the events leading up to the present
recreation situation and explain the
National Capital Park and Planning
Commission bill for unification Of the
agencies.
In question-and-answer period

the proposed recreation board. The
present bill allows for only one, to be
appointed by the Commissioners.
Several other amendments were sug-
gested which Mr.. Barrett agreed might
clear up some doubts about the scope
and operation Of the proposal.
