Peace In Spain

ctllCO uOctIAAeAAAI S~U"A
tude toward overtures for an imme-
diate peace in the Spanish civil war
is not difficult to understand. He
naturally feels that since he has
sacrificed to win and, to all intents
and purposes has won, he may as
well reap the fruits of victory.
To him it makes no difference
that his success has been possible
largely by the help of Mussolini and
Hitler. The important thing is
that he has won the war; What sort
of an agreement he has with the
dictators the world does not know
and may never know. But II Duce
and Der Fuehrer will be richly re-
compensed for the men, munitions
ard probably money as well that
they have furnished.
England and France are turning
heaven and earth to displace Mus
solini and Hitler in the affections of
the insurgent victor. Since our SYM
pathies here in America are with
the European democracies in their
fight to save free government on the
face of the earth, we are wishing
them complete success in their
maneuvers to that end. But, by the
principles that guide our dealings
and reckonings in these parts,
Franco would be the basest of in
CRATES to turn bluntly upon his
benefactors, even though western
nations may provide the money to
rehabilitate his war-torn country
when reconstruction begins.
Mussolini and Hitler did not fight
this war in Spain for the fun of it
nor merely to keep their soldiers in
trim. They did it for a reason. They
want the natural resources that
abound in Spain and desire wedge
driven between Britain's lifeline to
the East and Frances road to her
African colonies. If the totalita-
rian rulers remain steadfast in their
purpose and demand, to the point
of employing force to get possess
sions in Africa, Britain and France
certainly must defend their pro-
perry or submit in humiliation to the
will of the dictators, as they did at
Munich last fall. If these develop
ments come, there can be but one
result-war.
AS for the peace in Spain that is
now being sought, Franco would
have little to gain and much to
lose, in both manpower and re-
sources, by fighting for complete
annihilaticn of the loyalist armies.
Government Spain at long last adj
mits it is whipped and is ready to
throw in the towel; indeed has al
ready done so. Azana is making
use of the good offices of his former
sympathizers in trying to salvage
whatever may be possible. All he
is asking is humane treatment of
the peoples of the conquered areas.
Franco could lose nothing by grant
ing that
The immediate issue is to stop the
fighting and the preparations for
continued hostilities. After that will
come the diplomatic maneuverings
of Britain and France, as the demo-
cracies, on the one hand, and Musso-
lini and Hitler, as the dictators, on
the other Those Englishmen drive
hard bargains in the age-old diplo-
matte game. But this time they
have hard nut to crack. Upon the
result may hang the question of
war or pence for Europe.

TODAY'S HOROSCOPE

Today's nature is apparently pla-
cid and calm, but with an undercur-
rent of feeling and passion that may
tend to the sensuous. Adversely, or
little opposition, may awaken a
desire that will overcome obstacles,
The disposition is by no means as
weak as it often appears from its
indifference to affairs of everyday
life.

From One to Six" They have quite a list of these. Write for this list, check of the ones you want and get them.
 There are, however, larger books on the market on the pre-school child, lucidly and kindly written.
 The way to get them, or 1t, fl you live in an out-of- -the-way place is to write to 8 store that has a book department, of ask the librar- ian in your town to refer you to the various publishers of this type of book.
 Usually such a volume costs from dollar and half to two or two- fifty.
 Then there are simply excellent books on child care, or home treat ment for simple illnesses, and nurs- ing.
 They won't take the place of your doctor, ever, and hang onto him, but they are filled with good ideas on general prevention and are very comfortable to have around. Again, ask the librarian.
 Generally speaking, you will ab- sorb some valuable ideas. Why is it that a great portion of the public will read about raising good dogs, fine roses and delicious cakes, but isn't willing to learn the first thing about the funny little quirks of children and the way to make them happy, strong and confident?
 Yours Sincerely,

Glori1ing Yourself
By Alicia Hart
NEA Service Staff Writer

Tn addition to creams for cleans ing her skin and keeping 1t soft, smooth and unlined through the years, the smart young college girl takes back to school with her several items to simplify grooming routines.
 For instance, she chooses . really utilitarian manicure kit, containing essentials-only essen- tials. It's filled with double sup- ply of emery boards and cotton tipped orange sticks rather than an extra bottle of polish in shade she doesn't particularly like and only couple of emery boards.
 There's cuticle oil in her mani- cure kit. And she uses this al least a couple of times @ week She always buffs her nails before applying liquid polish. She doesn't cut corners or file them too closely. To remove dead skin at base of nails she uses cuticle re- mover and an orange stick.
 Lipstick is her favorite cosmetic. In fact, sheh is practically a col- lector of lipsticks. She buys the very best powder she can afford, uses rouge every day, of course, but uses 1t sparingly. She often wears mas cara and sometimes a touch of eye shadow to formal dances, but never to classes or daytime functions.

sprayed? We know of instances of arsenic poisoning from residues of such spray left on fruit or green vegetables when the weather has been dry following spraying. (M. J) Answer-I do not know. Tn any case washing such fruit, greens or vegetables in very dilute solution of hydrochloric acid best removes any such residue. One teaspoonful in the quart of water. Rinse in clear water to remove the acid. 2. -4 Goats Milk
 Have heard that the superiority of goats milk over cows milk lies in the fact that 1t Is alkaline while cows milk is acid. Also that 1t is richer and more easily digested. (D s. P0
 Answer-virtually no difference in alkalinity-neither may be regarded as "acid." In any case goats milk is at least equal to cows milk. In many cases infants suffering with malnutrition thrive on goats milk. Goats rarely or never suffer with tuberculosis; their milk is therefore free from tubercle bacilli, so often present in cows milk. The flavor of goats milk, for the benefit of any one who may not have tried 1t, is at least equal to the flavor of cows milk. Goats milk is not richer nor more digestible than cows milk. Family having one or more goats to provide milk, butter and even cheese for the family, is lucky, say II.

 A swimming pool wallflower"- the girl who can only paddle aroundl
 Yet with few simple instruc- tions she could be flashing through the water. For anyone can teach herself popular strokes, diving. Here Is how you learn to do the Back Crawl:
 First practice kicking as you lie on your back. Alternately move legs up and down from the hips, no farther than 12 to IS inches below surface. Relax ankles and knees, keep thighs in water.
 Now add the arm action, which 1s the same for both arms except that while one arm reaches and pulls, the other arm recovers-as our diagram shows.
 Lift arm from thigh and carry 1t back across the surface of the water to diagonal reach above the shoulder. Now strongly pull arm and hand back to thigh.
 You learn to dive gracefully, too, if you know such simple pointers as keeping your head down, pushing with your feet as you take off.

ODD HOUSE xs ON THEE FIRE

ODD HOUSE xS ON THE FIRE
 Reader offers her contribution tc Odd House. In her days as a stu. dent nurse she had to run up q ramp from one floor to another perhaps carrying Q tray of fooc and never spilling dror of coffee Now, with four children, she wishe, she had a ramp instead of the stairs in her home. She alway, found 1t difficult to keep flies out of the house, with the children running in and out and constantly swinging the screen doors open admitting the waiting flies. She pondered the problem of the man who cut large hole in the door for the big cat, and some smaller holes for the kittens. Finally she had small screen doors fitted in the large ones, so the tots could readily pass through without swinging the larger door open. This bafiled the insects. The lady published the idea in 8 popular magazine years ago, but believes itm fight be used in Odd House.
 Now that the odd House booklet is on the fire, coming up, being whipped into shape for the printer, I begin to wonder whether the name, Odd House, will not frighten conventional people of. After all Odd House Is not going 10 be Maniac Mansion, so there is noth- ine to fear except what he neigh bors may think about 1t.
 Friends who have seen 1t assure me that there is an exhibit in one of the worlds fairs bearing the startling name of the House of Tomorrow" Perhaps we had bet ter subordinate the forbidding idea of odd house and call ours the House of Next Fathers Day. some people might be interested enough to study 1t just to find out when the heck Fathers Day hap pens.
 Every development or improve ment we accept as feature for Odd House is primarily for health's sake. Architecturally or esthetical- ly some of the innovations already adopted or to be considered may be away out of line from the con- ventional point of view We can't help that. Odd House is the House of Happiness. Health is Happiness If in our opinion-shucks, excuse me, I mean my opinion, of course "a ramp seems to have any ad- vantage over stairways from the health viewpoint, I use the ramp instead of stairways. Don't be shocked when you first look at 1t Remember the way you felt about certain novel designs in automobile bodies when the early models ap- peared.
 It is the health aspect that gets odd House endorsement of the Alabama readers baby screen door If you can't keep all of the flies out of the house all of the time, at least 1t makes for health and hap piness to keep some of them out some of the time.

SIMPLE ROUTINE IS NECESSARY

Included and given importance in her beauty budget, are mouth wash and dental floss, as well as a dentrifice and couple of tooth brushes. Also an anti-perspirant, which she uses exactly according to directions.
 In other words, while the average college girl doesn't want and doesn't need to go in for com- plicated beauty routines, she does like and employ g few simple ones.
 She's determined to preserve present youthful appearance and, at the end of four years, to have mastered the art of being smartly groomed day in and day out.

 There is a girl in his home town to whom he writes and visits once or twice year.
 You sometimes suspect that he comes to you only to be "built up".
 Though he flatters you, you know from remarks he makes that he thinks women are "dopes". GOODNESS MEANS HE'S UNDECIDED
 He doesn't try hard to please you, but must constantly be pleased or else he sulks, or goes for a week or two without calling.
 When you have a date with him you usually see show HE wants to see or go somewhere else that HE wants to go.
 He occasionally breaks date with you.
 When he takes you to a party he is as likely as not to let you look after yourself if. there is an attractive new girl around.
 He is never aware of your mood.
 He doesn't make a definite date when he leaves you. but says something like "see you soon," so that you are always up in the air.
