New impetus was given the state
program for services to crippled
children under title v of the social
security act which was passed in
1885. In the spring of 1886 federal
funds were made available to
match state funds unexpended for
that year and an office was opened
in the capitol building and in June,
1886, the orthopedic commission
named Miss Freda Miller field worker
and investigator
A preliminary survey made by Miss
Miller showed need for more field serv-
ices and the state board OF health.
through its public health nursing pro-
gram, reported many children in need
Of care.
Legion Helps Out
The American Legion assisted In re-
porting cases as did many other public
and private agencies. Cooperation Of
the Montana Medical association was
enlisted and during the first year 10
intinerant clinics were held through
out the state. These clinics brought to
light many other cases which had not
been reported and by the end OF 1887,
l.575 crippled and handicapped chill
dren had been diagnosed by physicians.
Minimum standards for hospitals
were established and qualifications set
up for the personnel of the staff in
Guiding orthOpedic surgeons and ortlo-
pedic public health nurses
Today the following Montana hos
pitfalls and orthopedic surgeons have
been approved by the service:

There was blue jays nest in the
rosebushes near house in the sub
urbs. A cat belonged to the family
who owned the roses. And kitty, by
virtue of his position in the scheme
of things, decided he'd investigate
the nest. Only Mother Jay was
there! She didn't care for her
caller and proceeded to show him
the door in no uncertain fashion.
She also called for Father Jay.
He came with friend. The three
of them went after that cat!
At which point the lady of the
house glanced out the window. Fear
ing for kitty's life COR at least his
complexion) she went to the rescue.
The birds divided forces and gave
her little attention. Junior, hear

The Brothers Adam

The Brothers Adam, Robert,
James. John and William were arbi-
tiers of architectural fashion in the
middle of the 18th century in Eng
land. They not only built very
beautiful homes, but they de-
signed furniture for these homes
and attended to every detail of
decora ton. Much mahogany was
used in their furniture production
and they utilized furniture for these
homes and attended to every detail
of decoration.
Robert Adam, the mast famous
brother, is supposed to have been re-
sponsible for the bulk of the furni-
ture designs. He employed straight,
vertical lines for his chair and table
supports, and his decorations used
on mirrors, furniture and mouldings
were the swags of husks or bell
flowers, patterned after the flower
Of the Acanthus plant; rosettes; the
Greek Anthemion or the conven-
tionalized honeysuckle; Acanthus
leaf scrolls, wreaths, Grecian vase
and lamp. Tyres, etc.
Many furniture pieces, though of
mahogany or satinwood were paint
ed white, green, or gray and others
were gilded.

antagonize him. Not to forget he

adult birds away from feeding sta

dweller finds out more. And as those
who defend the bird remark upon
his color, wit and clownishness
said city dweller is likely to be
fighting off personal attacks. It's
happened. In Washington, too.
Blue jays aren't choosy about
whom they fight All they want is a
good excuse. Just try to act in any

High Hair1ine
FOrOff>Face
Chapeaux
Extreme COiffures
Not for a Woman
With Gray Hair
BY PATRICIA LINDSAY.

The feminine world has made a
mad dash for net turbans, snoods
and off-the-face hats for summer
comfort and casual wear-and thus
foreheads are brought into promi-
nence.
To wear these hats effectively
your forehead must be high or give
the appearance of being high. If
your hairline is very low it can be
raised somewhat by tweezing (Which
many actresses resort to-, but if YOU
have an aversion to tweezing YOU
can attain an illusion of high hair
line by brushing your hair straight
back from your face before putting
on your hat.
Plucking the brows also helps to
add height to your forehead-but
you must pluck along the top only.
Penciling slight arch as long
brows, widely spaced, give greater
breadth to your forehead, which YOU
do not want.
If you powder your forehead a
slightly lighter shade than the rest
OF your face, that also helps, and
highlighting it at the center and on
the temples with a light touch of
vaseline tends to attract others eyes
to it.
II you like these off-the-face hats.
by no means wear bangs-the COM
bination just makes you look COM
mon. Either the long bob or the
newer brief curls may be worn with
these summer hats, providing you
keep your forehead free of hair when
your hat is on.
Expression lines-politely termed
may be dimmed by nightly mas
sage with warmed olive oil or a rich
cream. Upward and outward is the
movement most efficacious. OF
course, dark glasses which cut the
glare and keep you from squirting
are almost must" and you should
wear glasses for close work if your
eyesight is weak.
Be sure your hairline is free of
powder and cream before dashing
out, and the best way to be sure
Is to go over it with a little cot
ton swab saturated with your face
astringent, once your makeup is on.
While the average woman reaches
for a dark-hair crayon when she
sees the first silver hairs appear or
ruShes for tint" Fay BANTER
takes the opposite view. She re-
joices at her first sprinkling of gray,
for she considers gray hair nicely
groomed the most f1attering of head
halos. She warns women, how
ever, that gray hair requires more
meticulouS care than any other
shade. Daily brushings, regular
shampoos, according to the oil con-
dition OF your hair, and proper rims
ings are necessary to keep gray hair
looking chic.
If your hair Is turning gray, how
you do it is of prime Importance
Long bobs, extreme coiffures with
numerous ringlets are strictly taboo.
And being overconservative Is Just
as bad.

Women Need to Cultivate Hobby
To Avoid Lonely Late Life

Among the most pathetic people
in the world are those women who,
at middle age, suddenly find them
selves alone, with nothing to do but
to kill time, and they do not know
how to do that without Staying
themselves with boredom. Up to
then they have been busy all their
lives. Going to school, Being
popular girls. Getting married.
Helping their husbands get a start
in the world. Having babies. Rear
ing families. Rushed with pleasant
and interesting things to do. Being
important. the kingpins that held
a household together.
Then in a moment, as it seems
to them, it Is all over. Their jobs
are finished. Often their husbands
are dead. Their children are mar
ried and gone. And there Is moth
ing left for them but to sit with
idle, empty hands longing for some
thing to do that will put a little
pep into life.
One of these women who feel that
they are too old to start a new life
yet too young to die, asks me: Can
nothing be done for us middle-aged
lonelies? There is nothing more
terrible than the fate of women like
me who, in their late 40s, are
made to feel that everything worth
while Is over for them. We are
alone in the world, with nothing to
do. No one to make housekeeping
interesting. No one to come home

Manners
of the
Moment

There is always one thing that
will break the reserve of two strang-
ers waiting for the same elevator.
And that is, the elevators complete
ignoring of them.
They may have stood in stony
silence for minutes waiting to get
down to the street from the seventh
floor. They may have been tempted
to speak to each, and stoically re-
Trained. When the signal above
the door shows that the elevator
is near, they edge little close to
the entrance, still holding their dis
tance. And suddenly they both real
ize that the elevator has come and
gone without stopping.
It's enough to start lifelong
friendship.
But I want to give you just one
small warning. Before you break
down completely and let the ex-
perience involve you in a lifelong
friendship, take good critical look
Ut the other person. After all he
may not be just the man for you.

Importance of a really clean skin.
The product is creamy liquid that
may be whisked on and off in just
few seconds, meantime cleansing
the skin and providing a powder
base for fresh cosmetics. 1t is ideal
for the business girl who can tuck it
away in the desk drawer; perfect for
the traveller who wishes to look her
best at all times and designed for
all women who know how much
better makeup looks when applied
to fresh and glowing skin.
Say what you will about these
healthful, carefree days of summer,
the fact still remains that they are
trying to the complexion. Long hours
in the sun rob the skin of fabrication
and give you dry, harsh complex
ion that is certainly to be deplored
The delicate tissue around your
eyes comes in for its share of
harm, too, and should be protected
at all times. One way to do just this
is by using a splendid little eye stick
to lubricate the eyelids, brows and
lashes. The stick. no bigger than a
lipstick, may be had in eyeshadow
shades or in a colorless form. The
latter, incidentally is particularly
recommended for beach wear when
you don't want to look too made
up" Simply run the stick over lids
and eyebrows and it will give you
the protection so necessary. And
more than that, 1t will make your
eyes look bright and sparkling and
encourage your lashes to grow.
New Powder Has
Finer Texture.
Perhaps one of the biggest wor-
ries of summer grooming is powder
1t somehow won't stay on, or 1t
cakes and becomes clogged on your
face. One of the best face powders
has been heartily accepted all sum-
mer as an easy way TO avoid q hot,
shiny look, and now the manufac-
turers are planning bigger and bet
| ter things for fall The same pow
der has been improved, retaining all
It's fine features but adding new
ones. They tell us that the texture
is now sheerer and more transpar-
ent and that the product gives you
finished look of perfection with
out heavily powdered lopk. There
are six new shades keyed to the
fashion picture for fall, and all are
in the new lighter and fluffier tex
ture. Try it now for a really fresh
and natural appearance. and we
believe you'll find it one of the most
satisfactory powders yet. Incident
ally, even the name is symbolic of
a smooth, dull material we'll be
using this fall. In fact, the prod
uct is just one of those things that
seem to appear at the right mo-
ment-at the very time when we're
looking forward to a completely
new personality that We hope will
arrive with cooler weather.
And by the way-clean lingerie
every single day, shields carefully
laundered as often as hose and the
use of spic and span beauty aids
will help a great deal toward a
cool and dainty summer BY those
beauty aids we mean fresh powder
puffs and spotless comb and brush
among others. Don't limit your
possibilities of charm by overlook
ing the rules for daintiness.

Debutante Flowers
Garry Card From
MIR. and Mrs.
By EMILY POST.

Dear Mrs. Post: My husband and
I received an invitation to a tea
dance being given to introduce the
daughter of business friends whom
I know scarcely at all. I will prob
ably not be able to go. My husband
may, because the party is during
the week when he is in town at
tending to business. Will it be
proper for him to go without me
and in what way should this invita-
ton be acknowledged? It did not
ask for a reply.
Answer-It is quite all right for
him to 60 alone. The invitation is
not acknowledged at all, unless your
husband would like to show especial
courtesy to his business friend by
sending the daughter bouquet with
your Mr.. and Mrs" card. But IL
you have no card with your names
engraved together it would be best
in this case, to send his card instead
of yours, since he is the person in
terested rather than you. He merely
adds an IS" to the Mr.. before his
name and prefixes Mr." Or if his
card is engraved without any "Mr.
before it, he writes Mr.. and Mrs.
before his name. AS 1 have already
noted, this would be better-only in
this case. Usually you send your
card with Mr.. and" written before
the Mrs"

According to our Hollywood cor
respondent, the lovely ladies of that
city seem to have adopted a par
ticularly fitting slogan. Look fair
but not warmer" is the way she
describes their successful attempts
at perfect grooming throughout the
summer.
All of which means that those
who get paid for looking beautiful
are doing very we'll in this business
Of retaining their charm no matter
how high the temperature scars.
It's much too easy to look down.
right wilted during this season.
Noses shine. hair becomes dry and
lifeless and, unless you're very
careful, your whole appearance re-
fleets the fact that this hot weather
is just too much. So here are a
few ideas that may prove helpful
to you in keeping a bright, fresh
and pleasing appearance.
Cleanliness plays big part in
achieving this goal, and certainly
it is an important factor in the
maintenance of a beautiful skin.
Too often we are inclined to apply
fresh makeup over old, and in this
warm weather especially, it not only
is harmful to the skin, but looks
really terrible. Powder applied over
former layers gives your skin a
clogged look that is certainly mot
fair and much warmer" Be quite
sure to remove all old makeup be-
fore you apply your fresh cosmetics.
