o. What makes soap bubbles round and what gives them color?
 A. Equal distributed air pressure within soap bubbles, resisted by a film of equal tensile strength at all points, makes them round. The beautiful play of colors is caused by the refraction and reflection of light.

D. {. Gains in Control
Of venereaI Disease Noted

A steady strengthening of the
Districts venereal disease control
program is noted in the annual re-
port of the Social Hygiene Society
of the District of Columbia, made
public yesterday. The report states
that public demands for blood
tests have. risen by leaps and
bounds"
Neither physicians nor the pub
lie are now so inclined as formerly
to give the venereal disease infec-
tions position of isolated opprobri-
um," it declares.
The fact that the society's lee
lures on sex education and marriage
guidance showed larger total at
tendances than those on health for
the first time in recent years Is
viewed as an encouraging trend.
More than $500 attended the for
mer and approximately 1000 the
latter, the report reveals.
Despite a curtailed budget, the
result of the Community Chests
failure to achieve its last campaign
goal, the society was able to carry
out an extensive program of lectures,
Aim showings, Office consultations,
book loans and pamphlet distribu-
ton. The Special Committee in
Negro Health, under Craftsmanship
of DR.. Paul Cornely, was particu-
larly active during the last year.
The society is pressing toward
enactment of a pre-marital health
law for the District, q draft of
which now is being studied by the
corporation counSel's ONCE.

NEW YORK, June "a doctor
should be called to take care of most
of the parents who get scared be-
cause baby sucks his fingers.
This advice was given to the
American Academy of Pediatricians
today by DR.. William s. Langford
OF the Babies Hospital here.
There are dangers to thumb
sucking children, he said, but even
more dangers in what parents do to
these youngsters He declared that
children who suck their fingers are
not any more susceptible to digestive
disorders than those who do not.
THE only scientific evidence" he
said, regarding production of facial
deformations is by Lewis, who has
shown that If a malocclusion fail-
ure of teeth to meet properly does
occur, it will spontaneously correct
itself If sucking disappears before
the eruption of the permanent
teeth"
The reference was to DR.. Samuel
j. Lewis of the Merrill-Palmer
School, Detroit.
There is little to be gained by re-
straining baby from thumb suck
ing during its first year, ne asserted.
Afer the first year, restraint is not
the proper remedy.
After infancy and during pre-
school years, he explained, the treat
ment Is to keep q child reasonably
well occupied so that he does not
suck his fingers through boredom
or for emotional reasons. He denied
that finger sucking is a sexual ac-
ton.
In older children there is danger,
he said, Of deformity from finger
sucking. But he said that the habit
at that age is part OF a manifesto
ton Of general emotional imma-
turity. The remedy is to attack this
underlying cause through person.
atty and environment readjustment.

DEAR DOROTHY DIX: Girls are
always asking why they don't inter-
est men and have dates. Here's
telling 'em: 1t is not because they
are too clever or too dumb, but be-
cause they are in a position to make
a man feel inferior. Most of the
young fellows aren't doing any
thing to shout about. consequently
they consider themselves out of the
marrying class. Especially when
they aren't making good money.
They can't take girl to the kind
of places they think she would like
to 60, or do the things she would
like to do, SO they drift away. I
know l am free, white and 26, but
I am also broke or badly bent, and
haven't any immediate bright pros
poets for the future. So what?
So I maintain strictly neutral
course, and that is what most of
us young men are doing. 1t is the
safest We would like nothing bet
ter than to step out with nice girls,
only it must be under our own
steam. And as we can't raise this,
we stay on the sidings, which Is
tough for us, and maybe tough for
the girls. CHARLES.
AnsWer-Perhaps this answers the
problem of why they don't have
dates that so many girls are trying
to solve. And this riddle is par
ticularly hard to unriddle by the
girls who belong to we'll to-do fam
lilies or who have good jobs. They
know they are good looking. attrac-
tive, well dressed, good dancers and
companionable, but, alas, men pass
them by. No takers.
According to Charles, the reason
is the vanity of man. He wants to
feel superior to the girl he takes
out and, if he can't do this, he leaves
her at home. He won't take her out
unless he can act like Good-Time
Charlie and set up champagne and
throw his money around at expen-
sive night clubs and blow her to
box seat at the opera. He has to
be Prince Charming or nothing And
apparently it doesn't occur to him
that unless girl is a gold-digger
her good time doesn't depend upon
what it costs, but upon the COM
panionship of the man with whom
she goes out, and, anyway, even a
Street-car ride is better than sitting
at home, and beer and sandwich
supper with jolly lad great
