BUDDY LEARNS ABOUT boobies
Edith Brandis


What shall | do with this little
boy who asks questions all the
times?" wondered Mrs. Sandusky.
"If' / answer his questions l shall
get nothing else done all day. This
is never going to do"
She asked other young mothers
and found they could not help her
very much. Then she asked the kim
dergarten teacher to whom Buddy
would go in another few months.
BE glad he has an active mind"
said Miss Gaines. "If he were a stu
pid little boy you wouldn't like that
either. My guess is that part of his
urge is the desire to be noticed, but
that by far the most of II Is what
we call intellectual curiosity, and
that is the base for the quest of all
knowledge. So then. the first thing
to do is, at all legitimate times, to-
satisfy his desire to be noticed, and
gradually replace that with an in
terest in the objective things around
him. This will give his mind the
food II needs"
She made other suggestions which
Mrs. Sandusky carefully noted.
The next morning Mother gaye
Buddy his breakfast in peace and
harmony, having waited until his
older brother and sister had gone to
school, so he could have her full at
tention. After breakfast, his face
and hands washed, his little play
suit on for an hour out-of-dOOrs. his
questions began, and 1t was not hard
to see that he did not want to go
away from her. But this was her
problem. and she set about solving
II at once.
She remembered that she had
heard the older children mention a
colony Of doodle Bugs" in the soft
sand of the driveway. When Buddy's
barrage of questions began, she took
him by the hand and they went to
visit the "DOodles."
She showed Buddy one Ant Lions
funnel-shaped trap. Then she sat
quietly on the grass by the drive
way and allowed him to find all the
rest of them for himself. When he
had done this he counted them and
told her how many there were.
Next she told him that when she !
was little girl she used 10 talk to !

Gould they talk TO you?" he ask ,

BEST FOR REST

BY T. A. Hall, Milford
I love to be alone,
And feel the Lord is near
And let my thoughts just roam
Without a thought of fear.
I love to think deep
On things that seem worthwhile
Just before I go to sleep
After a day of trial.
I really think that's best
After the day Is done.
And we have gone to rest
Even tho we are lost or won. 1tI

HOME TO BE OPENED
FOR GADSBY BENEFIT
Garden Party Will Be Held at
Residence of Mr.. and Mrs.
Sherier at Alexandria.

BY Stan Correspondent of The Star.
ALEXANDRIA, Va, May 31.-A
garden party will be held at the home
of Mr.. and Mrs. James Sherier on
King street extended Friday afternoon
to raise funds to aid in the restora-
ton of historic Gadsby's Tavern, IA
NOUS inn of Colonial days.
The party will mark the first time
the Sherier residence, which is ap-
proximately 100 years old, has been
opened to the public. The tract Of
land on which it stands is part Of
the 6,000-acre grant which Sir Will
liam Berkley, Colonial Governor of
Virginia, made to Robert H. Housing
In October, 1867.
Alexandria court records show that
the one-time owner of the estate,
Charles c. Smoot, in conveying it to
Jefferson Tasey, spoke Of it as my
homestead, Eastern View, in the year
1874" The belief that the house is
at least century old Is based on that
record
Mr.. and Mrs. Sherier, the present
owners, are both of Colonial Virginia
heritage. They have preserved the
house and garden in their original
h form.

HEALTH PARLEY
SET FOR July IS
National Conference to Be
Held Under Auspices of
Federal Group.

To consider the major needs Of the
Nation in the fields of health and
medical care, a National Health Con-
ference will be held July 1s, 10 and
20, probably in the Department Of
Commerce auditorium.
In announcing the conference, Miss
Josephine Roche, former Assistant
Secretary of the Treasury, who now is
chairman of the Presidents Interde-
partmental Committee to Coordinate
Health and Welfare Activities. said
that approximately 100 men and
women had been invited to attend.
They will represent not only the
medical and other professions and
organizations actively interested in the
provision Of medical services, but labor,
agriculture and other groups Of citi-
zenS.
Miss Roche explained the committee
is carrying out the suggestion of
President Roosevelt that it invite "rep-
resentatives Of the interested public
and of the medical and other profess
sions. to examine the health problems
in all their major aspects and to dis
cuss ways and means of dealing with
these problems.
It is hoped that the conference will
contribute to two ends, Miss Roche
said: First, better understanding of
national needs in the field Of health
and medical care; second, the formula
ton Of policies which will enable the
medical and other professions, private
organizations, Federal, State and local
agencies, and individual citizens, to
cooperate in efforts to meet these
needs"
The calling Of the National Health
Conference follows almost three years
Of preliminary work by the Interde-
partmental Committee to Coordinate
Health and welfare Activities. 1t has
been assisted by Technical Commit
tee on Medical Care, consisting of ex-
perts from the United States Public
Health Service, the Children's Bureau
and the Social Security Board.

ficiency tax claims made by the In
ternal Revenue Bureau.
Among the items on which the
bureau wanted to collect was one for
$3S,543. The Government declined to
permit the company to deduct this
item In 1885 because the money was
used to combet the Public Utility
Holding Company Act.

SPACE PROVIDED
FOR NEW JUDGES
Three Will Have Offices in
Police Court Building,
DC. Heads Decide.

To provide Office space for three ad-
ditional judges for District Court, the
Commissioners agreed today to make
available for Federal court purposes
three of the four courtroom suites now
unused in the new Police Court
Building.
/ The Commissioners decided to re-
tain the last of the unused courtroom
suites in the new building, anticipat-
ing that shortly there would have to
be an expansion of Police Court activi-
ties to meet its own demands, Com
missioner Melvin c. Hazen announced
Request for the temporary use Of
the Police Court Building space by the
District Court had been filed with the
Commissioners by representative Of
the Justice Department. Congress has
provided for the appointment Of three
additional judges for District Court
and one extra Judge for the Court Of
Appeals.
One problem remaining to be solved
is the request of the district attorneys
Office for additional space for the grand
jury. Some time ago the Commission
ers allotted one Of the unused court
rooms in the new Police Court Build
ing to the district attorney when that
position was held by Leslie c. Garnett.
This fact will be reported to the De-
partment Of Justice, and the decision
as to the grand jury quarters will be
left to it and David A. Pine, the new
district attorney.
Formal action on the space request
is expected to be taken by the Com
missioners Friday after they have re-
ceived report from Capt. H. s.
Bishop, Assistant Engineer Commis-
sioner, to whom has been referred q
report by special joint committee
headed by David Lynn, architect of the
Capitol, who has supervision over the
physical conditions at District Court.
The Commissioners had hoped for
approval by Congress Of bill pro-
viding for the appointment Of one ad-
ditional Judge for Police Court, but so
far this session it has not been re-
ported out by either the House or Sen
ate District Committee and Is regarded
as dead for this session.
