 being taken out of marriage just as thoroughly and systematically as the marriage doctors can get around to it.
 And are the women happy about it? No They are registering their protest-and in the best natured way imaginable.
 They are packing the theaters to watch people in love kicking and scratching and throwing books at each other. They are getting vicar iously the kind of love that the clinics and class lectures are teach- ing them how to avoid.
 Hollywood is pouring out pictures where the hero and heroine fight to the last reel. And every time He gives Her nice right to the jaw the women laugh loud and long. They keep right on laughing when she catches him under the ear with three-pound book.
 And no wonder. Women have taken all the marriage science they can stand. They are getting just a little bit sick of hearing that if they do this or that Reno will get them.
 They have always dreamed of love as being exciting and unex- pected, only to grow up and be told that marriage is business propo- sition and can succeed only when people work at 1t.
 Dutifully, they have absorbed the dull formulas for keeping a husband happy and at home, his relatives subdued, the landlord sat- isfed, the dinner menu interest ing" and children free of complex es, and themselves young.
 And right when they are fed up to the point of thinking that a nice, smooth marriage where the woman f1atters the husband and the husband remembers the wed- ding anniversary because he has it written down on his office calen- dar is bit on the dull side, along comes Hollywood with some rollick- ing, knock-down, drag-out love scenes. Is it surprising that women find them fun?
 It must be a great relief for a woman to walk out of a marriage clinic where love is disappointingly scientific into a picture show where it is an exciting mixture of kicks and kisses.

INFORMAL CHINA

For informal table service colorful china remains popular. Solid color ware is vivid in tone and sets are assembled of one color or of con- trasting colors. Especially suitable for outdoor dining or informal luncheons and breakfast is decorat- ed china with bold Mexican and Spanish designs. One set seen in a recent china exhibit is assembled of pieces each having different motif depicting important articles in the life of the southwest-cacti, gay woven baskets, native blankets, adobe houses, sombreroed figures. Scenic designs, showing typical phases of Mexican and Indian ac- tivities are new and make an inter eSting luncheon setting.

What A Cold Really Is

What A Cold Really Is
 Last month we recorded the bull letin distributed by the New York State Medical Society announcing to the public that cold is never really just a cold" after all, but something entirely different. Sorry, we have been stringing you along for years with the bare-faced fal- lacy that a cold is just a cold. But now that we have made monkey out of the nameless doctor who has been trying to tell the public, for years and years, that there is no such thing as a "cold," we, the organized medical profession of the State of New York, hereby VOUCH FOR the accuracy of this definition of a "cold":
 "It is an infection which may
 be any one of several kinds,
 usually contracted from friend
 who sneezes or coughs at us.'
 Eminent specialists that we are, it seems to us that this is as far as we can go at present without loss of dignity. Give us ten or twenty years more to quibble and squirm and maybe we'll be ready to ack- nowledge that respiratory infection is at least as likely to be carried in polite conversational spray as in the spray or open face cough or sneeze-if that's the kind of friends one has.
 Fortnight after the N. Y. State Medical society organ fopped on the "cold" controversy, the national medical society organ came out with still different dictum on the question:
 owing to lack of scientific in- formation as to what a cold really is and the great variability of it's incidence in individuals as well as in communities, scientific investi- gation on the question of the use of sodium bicarbonate as proven tive or treatment would be most difficult"
 So there you are, all clear on the question What is a so-called cold and what should one do about it?'
 To date the medical profession has recognized the hazard of con- versational spray infection in only one place-in the operating room Everybody dons a mask there.
 Now if some genius would devise a mask that would look imposing or even beautiful or at least mol ugly or frightful to timid souls maybe we could make some head way in the prevention of respira- tory infection, which is responsible for most of the illness physician! attend and for most of the ab. senteeism in national commercial industrial and educational records

hour. Even Socialists would prefer a Hapsburg to a Hitler.
 And now Hitler has marched in Zita has now given up all hope. She knows Hitler has a contempt for kings. His book "Mein Kampf" is filled with uncomplimentary refer ences to the Hapsburgs. He moved to Bavaria rather than live under their rule. He enlisted in the German army rather than serve under Hapsburg officers. His eye is on Hungary and he will not tol- crate Hapsburg king there.
 zita now faces the bitter truth Otto will never be a real king. Copyright, 1888, NEA Service, Incl

Molyneux' spring coIIectlon m- troduces an unusual new suit sil- houette. Its fitted, slightly longer, swallow-tail jacket is rounded in the front somewhat like a bolero and dips down in the back. It is worn over a plain shirtwaist frock with tailored white collar and full, knife-pleated skirt. A hat pin sailor in a rough straw with a medium bumper brim and a sheer dotted veil tied in high bow at the back of the crown is the right hat to wear with it.

Start TEXAS
SHELTER BELT
Lessening Of Dust Storms
Held Proof of Effective
ness of Program
By JACK TURNER
United Press Staff Correspondent

TURKEY, Tex, Feb. ,. (UP)
Work has started on the Turkey
shelter belt, part Of the federal
governments 1898 fight against
wind erosion in the Texas Pan
handle.
Contracts have been signed
with farmers for the planting OF
100000 trees in this area. Last
season 50 miles OF trees were
planted with a record Of only a
five per cent loss.
The effectiveness of the tree
planting program, which many
said would fail, has been shown
in the size of the trees and the
decreasing number and intensity
Of dust storms. Many of the trees
planted last year reached height
of 8 to 10 feet the first year.
One hundred WPA workers
we're put to work in this area
planting the trees. Farmers on
whose farms the trees were plant
ed reported that black locust, cot
tonwoods, Chinese elms, apricots
and native trees thrived best m
the shelter belt experiments.
TREES HOLD MOISTURE
The trees not only prevent the
Wind from sweeping unchecked
across the plains areas, but m
crease the moisture content 81 the
soil.
Snow held on the ground where
it falls means more moisture for
crop and grass growth in the
spring. If the snow IS swept into
gullies and bitches by winds, the
moisture is lost TO the fields.
