 him to mingle with boys he does not understand. Let him find his own way.
 r He likes to play with girls. That is simply fine. Girls are splendid company. They don't knock one down or jeer. They are tickled to death when a boy plays with them. That sets Billy up lot, and. dear knows, Billy probably needs it.
 One of these days, for children are as smart as tacks, he is going to say to himself, "Aw, nuts to girls They play with dolls and always want tea party" Then he will make up with some little codger around the corner, maybe younger than he is, or weaker.
 Next, he will venture another boy not quite as sappy as Lionel or AL phonse. This boy will boss Billy a bit, but he will also make him stand up for his rights when he snatches the lollypop and runs. Billy will chase him. Or, at least, be very mad.
 Then, too, Billy will start school He will have lot of boys to adjust himself to. He won't pick the bruis- CTS to pal with, or I hope he won't but rather the boys like himself who are peace-loving and kind.
 He is very little, though. Girls will do nicely for a while. Indeed they make good ingredient in any boys life. But the masculine urge is there, just the same. He will make boy friends in good time.
 Yours sincerely,
 OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON.

Or in a more philosophic vein, but one just as hard on the men, Il was taught that we must create our own happiness. Why should men have their happiness made for them?" :.
 And on top of the protests Of wives there are complaints from young men that many girls today seem to take delight in tearing down when a pat on the back is in order.
 There's nothing wrong with the revolution. Things have been pretty lop-sided on this score, and If the women win-life will be much simp- Ter for them. No more taking the whole responsibility for making a marriage successful; no more plot ting ways of putting man in the best possible light; no more running home according to the lord and masters hours and whims.
 But, as in any revolution, a lot of people are going to get hurt.
 They are the women who are leading the fight. And the reason they stand to lose so much is be- cause all women aren't joining the revolt.
 There are still plenty of women around who are willing to build up mans ego and cater to his com- fort to make it tough on the fem mine revolutionists.
 Yes, the builder uppers are still in there pitching. And there is go- ing to be many man lost to the enemy camp. Taken in on the old, old theory that the woman who is good at building up seldom gets let down.

THE SURGEON WHO STAYED
 ON THE JOB


 Not all cases of hernia (breach, rupture) are amenable to injection treatment. Nor is the ambulent treatment always successful even in cases ideally suited to 1t and in the hands of the most skilful phy- sician. But in most cases a cure may be obtained by ambulent (in- lection treatment and probably the percentage of failures in all cases SO treated is lower than the per- centage of failures in all cases treated by radical operation.
 Both laymen and medical men must bear in mind that the injec- ton treatment is modern de- velopment and the physician who attains success with this method must apply at least as much skill and judgment in the conduct of the treatment as the surgeon does in a hernia operation. The technique of injection treatment is indeed a good test of doctors skill and training.
 While an uncomplicated hernia operation may be completed in forty minutes, the ambulant method requires. weeks or months to com plete. Some half-baked eminent surgeon, according to propaganda sent out by the American Medical association against this new method used that fact as an argument te discourage people from taking the injection treatment. Personally, I'd rather drop into my doctors office for an injection from time to time throughout the year if necessary than be laid up two or three weeks in hospital and undergo the hazard of general anesthesia or local anes- thesia and a major operation.
 When operation for hernia fails to cure, the patient is out CD the hospital bill, (2) the surgeons fee (3) the loss of pay for the time he had to be absent from his work
 When ambulant treatment fails the patient is out only the fee charged by the physician for the injections. If the primary series of injections fails to bring about cure, there is no increased diff. culty about the radical operation l afterward if the patient elects tc undergo operation. Nor is there any less probability of cure being obtained by @ further series of in- | iections.

1 moderately painful and produce little or no after pain or discom- fort. AS a rule, I say. Untoward results occur exceptionally, as they do in surgery.
 The best testimonial can cite for ambulent treatment of hernia in this. One day I visited the pri- vate clinic of doctor who has achieved wide -repute for his suc- cess in the ambulant treatment Among the patients saw under treatment was an excellent sur geon.
 "Ho, ho," exclaimed, "hov come you elect to take a chance with injection treatment, Doctor?'
 Well, I've seen several bat cases cured under our good friends treatment, so I'm taking the treat ment ans staying on the job, as can't afford to leave my practice for several weeks
 Finally, let me repeat this warn- ing: Beware of the doctor or speci- alist or institution that canvasses prospective patients for this treat. ment

GloriHing Yourself
By Alicia Hart
NEA Service Staff Writer


 Foundation preparations will be in the limelight again this fall. New hats, hustle dresses and other clothes designed to enhance the new small-waisted "lady" silhouette demand fiawlessly smooth skin. And one sure-fire way to achieve the desired satiny look is to choose and wear the right foundation cream or lotion.
 There are greaseless lotions to make powder stay on oily skin. There are wonderful creams and stick bases to give excessively dry skin a fafntly dewy appeahance. And, for formal complexions, there are several varieties of easy-to-ap- ply foundations. All types come in shades to match natural skin tones.
 To conceal birthmarks, small scars and the like, there's a special cream. If purchased in the right shade and applied with the utmost care, 1t will cover a scar perfectly. It's not to be used over open blemishes or over any scar which isn't completely healed, of course.
 SECRET IS TO
 BLEND WELL
 Start applying any foundation at the base of the throat-not at chin line. Otherwise, your neck won't match your face. Blend 1t smoothly upward, according to di- rections, let set moment or two gently remove the excess by blot ting with cleansing tissues, then apply rouge cream. It, too, must be | blended carefully so that no rough edges remain.
 Keep in mind that rouge is sup posed to enhance your natural coloring. Place 1t exactly where natural color shows after you have exercised violently.
 Powdering is the next step. Use powder lavishly, pressing it into rouge and foundation. Let 1t set then whisk off the excess with g soft powder brush or fluffy piece of clean cotton. Now put on lip stick and brush eyebrows anc lashes.

Keep Your Head

Rarely in our history has it
been so necessary for Ameri-
cans to keep their heads as
it is today.
The most ghaGtly of all
tragdies has engulfed Eur
ope. 1t is the burning hope
of the vast majority of our
PEOPLE that we may escape
the holocaust of destruction.
We have not forgotten the
World War. 1t sOwed the
seeds for the years of social
discomfort and depression
that followed. We have not
forgotten that thousands of
American lives and untold
billions in American wealth
and resources were sacrlfl-
ced. Only history will even
tually reveal what good, If
any, came from that war.
The president has said
that as ong as it remains
within his power, there
shall be no "blackout of
peace" in this nation. In
that he echoes the minds
and hearts of all of us. But
the mere wish is not enough.
Hysteria, passion, fanatic
ism, mistaken idealism-
these things can be the pro-
ducers of ruin and horror.
American neutrality is de-
pendent upon America keep
ing its head.
No one knows when the
war will end, or who will be
the victor" But certainly
there is justified fear that
all that is best in Europe
may be lost to that CONT
nent for many years after
hostiities have stopped. War
means that the arts of peace
must be ruthlessly dropped
in order that the arts OF
death and destruction may
be advanced. The preserva-
ton of liberties which have
been won through centuries,
are threatened in a warning
world.

10, Mrs. Grace Velma Be-
chtel,- Al years old, a resi-
dent of Arizona many years,
who died at her home three
miles west of Coolidge, Tues
day. Mrs. Bechtel was a ma
tive of Iowa. She leaves to
mourn her loss a husband,
three sons, Robert, Herbert
and Bernard, and a daught-
er Mrs. Gertrude Cowan, of
Central Valley, California.
Sympathy 20 the bereved
family is extended.
England announces she is
prepared for a war of three
years duration.
However there are some
hopes it may be a relatively
short war. Immensely signi-
ficant factor is that this time
none of the nations went to
war willingly-they went
grimly, with worried faces,
to do what both Germans
and Allies think is a neces-
sary and distasteful job.
That attitude doesn't create
sentiment for prolonging the
GLORIOUS adventure"
