Machine quilting is just the
thing to give the pads the stiffness

they will lay fiat in the bottom OF
the drawer and not wrinkle up.
Glazed chintz in plain soft blue

for the pads made to fit the chest

sheet wadding for the padding.

Among newcomers in the field Of

Women Must
Utilize Their
Natural Gifts
BY PATRICIA LINDSAY

SOMEONE has said, ''No beau
ties are born, all are made"
And what hope and encouragement
to all women lie in that statementl
True it is that few of us are born
beautiful but persistency in making
the most of what Nature endowed
us with does make us attractive.
And after all, it is the interesting
looking woman today, rather than
the pretty-pretty, who is recognized
and toasted as the modern beauty.
The woman who has developed her
natural gifts by being beauty-loving
and beauty-Seeking.
Gone are the days when ones ear
nest devotion to good looks was
frowned upon, or when doctors
voiced their disapproval of cosmet-
les. Today it is considered a wom-
ans duty to society to be as lovely
as possible and leading physicians
believe strongly that the healthy,
normal woman should keep astride
of her times and make herself most
attractive.
No matter what your age, your oc4
cupation, your circumstances, you
owe it to yourself as woman, and
to those around you, to make the
most of your feminine heritage.
Husbands and children alike uncon-
sciously dote on wives and mothers
who have not allowed themselves to
become buds. Proud is the child
who can produce personable moth
er to show his friends and school
mates.

Keep Child's Mind
Active

If you are truly concerned about
her beauty you cannot fail to keep
her mind active and growing. What
nonsense to allow her to concen-
trate on makeup! Teach her simple
daily groomings. Fill her day with
small duties and childish pleas
ures. Let her growl Every child
loves to be read to. Every child
loves to paint and draw pictures.
Think up new activities that will
teach her to be self-reliant and pro-
gressive.
There is no beauty as appealing
in all the world as child's beauty.
It must be held sacred. 1t must
not be SCARED by stupid parents
who feel that artificial beauty aids
can possibly make their child more
attractive!
Body health, skin health, mental
health are the goals to be reached.
Help your child by concentrating
on those. She will grow to lovely
womanhood, happy in the knowl-
edge that her parents were wise par
ents who did not sacrifice her youth
needlessly. e 80

BE sure not to coax a child

child enjoys beng the center of
attention and uses poor food hab-

Get your child to clear his plate
voluntarily by serving him small
portions of each kind OF food.
3.-"Set your child a good ex-

discussing their own food dislikes
their children will feel it neces-

4.-"AllOw a reasonable time

If the child has not finished, re-
move the plate without comment
and do not offer any food until
the next meal.
5.-"DiscOurage eating between

WHATS WHAT ABOUT
SOCIAL SECURITY

Charles E. Bailey, manager of
the Hagerstown office of the So
cial Security Board has returned
from Washington where he at
tended a regional conference of
Field Managers from Maryland,
North Carolina, Virginia, West
Virginia and the District of Co
lumbia. Consideration of amend
ments to the Social Security Act,
passed by Congress last August
and consequent changes in admin
istrative procedure formed the
basis of discussions during the g.
day meeting.
He said that considerable at
tention was devoted to an import
ant change in the act which re-
lates to workers approaching the
age of 60 or those who have al
ready reached the age of 65 Be
fore the Social Security Act was
amended wages earned by the
worker after he had become 60 did
not count toward benefits Under
the amended act this stop date"
at age 50 has been removed so
that a worker may continue to
build up wage credits regardless
Of his age as long IS he remains
in employment cov0'ed by the
system. This particular change
was made retroactive SO that it a"
tually became effective as of Janu-
airy 1. 1889.
Mr.. Bailey stated that in view
Of this fact the attainment claim
formerly paid to an insured work
er when he reached the age of IS
has been stopped. Instead the
older worker now has a chance to
1u"lifv for monthly benefits
which became payable January /,
1910. He stressed the fact that a
relative of any insured worker
who dies before 1910 may still file
claim for a lump-sum payment of
old-age insurance, provided the
deceased had not received a bene-
fit payment of old-age insurance
during his lifetime.

Ing experience. The King Of kings

had come to earth to be our Re-

and was prepared to enter on His

be His forerunner to prepare the
way and to herald His coming.
L. A Herald Prophetically Fore
told (vv. /. 3, ~.
The coming of John CASUALLY
called the Baptist was of such VII
tai concern to God that He had re-
vealed it to His prophets hundreds
of years before (see lisa. 40:3.
We should study and believe the
message of the prophets. The same
prophecies that pointed to John the
Baptist and Christ's first coming
also point to the second coming
(Mal. 3:1-6: 4:1-6. We know the
former took place, why should VIC
doubt the fulfillment of the latter?

for such an appearance to attract at

The preaching of John was burn

had been no prophetic message
since the time of Malachi, and in
the intervening 400 years the reli-
gious life of the Jews had settled
down into barren legalistic formal
ity. John came with simple. prac-
teal, and plain-spoken indictment of
sin, which led to repentance and
which made religion vital and real
again.
We know that the gospel of the
grace of God in Christ goes far be-
yond the preaching of John. But We
also know that the Church needs to
get back to the proclamation of a
