Sacrifices
Made by
Family
Love and Devotion
From Youngsters
Repays Them
BY ANGELO PATRI.

The unfortunate days are here.
Many people who had comfortable
homes and good positions have lost
them. Fathers and mothers who
had believed themselves adequately
provided for are themselves de-
pendent. Work is hard to find, and
older men and women have no
chance of employment. Young peo-
pie have great difficulty in placing
themselves.
Such problems of finance, per-
sonal interest, personal safety as
arise in. the homes of today have
not been felt in this country since
the early days, and there is even less
possibility of happy solutions. 1t
was possible then to go West and
stake homestead. Now we must
abide where we happen to be caught.
Time and its routine of events will
remedy all this, no doubt, but in
the meantime we must all adjust
ourselves to the changed conditions
and help each other every way we
can. In time the trouble will pass,
but we must live today. The burden
presses heavily on youth.
In many families the older people
have to depend upon the sons and
daughters for help. Usually this is
given gladly, but in some instances
the young people grumble at the
necessity of using any of their earn
ings for the support of the family.
This is especially ungracious in those
who have been reared and educated
by their parents so that they have
the qualifications that earn the
money they get.
Fathers all over the land made
sacrifices to keep sons and daughters
in college. Mothers did without
things they would have liked so that
daughters might look right, and feel
right, in the eyes of their associates.
Thousands of dollars went into the
education of these young people
Leaving out the love that prompted
such service wouldn't it be just
decent to feel indebted to such q
father and mother, and to do all
that could be done graciously?
I know that parents owe their
children a good home, sound edu-
cation and a feeling of security
These young people had just that
Now their parents need good home
and feeling of security. I think
it is their turn to serve. I have nc
patience with persons who say that
children owe nothing to their
parents because they didn't ask tc
be brought into the world.
Asked or not, life was given them
What would any one of them sell
his chance to life for today? They
were given love and care and de-
votion. They were served with sac
rifice and joy. These are priceless
gifts.
Nor should children look upon this
as a duty without pleasure to tighten
it. It is a privilege. Selfshness
clouds the best of minds occasional
ly. Trouble and anxiety distorts
thinking now and then. But there
is one emotion that remains stead
fast though submerged by life ane
its upheavals-love for ones mother
and father. It may be overlooked
for day; it may seem to vanish in
a furry Of irritation and fear, but
it remains.
The day comes at last when that
father and that mother slip away
from this earth and its woes. On
that day the old love rises, and woe
to the luckless, hapless son OF
daughter who cannot face that love
who cannot wrap their aching hearts
Ia its eternal warmth.

home and her own new furniture
has worn off, she finds domesticity
dull and boring. She is used to
working in crowds, to people coming
and going all the time, to hearing
and seeing new things, to being
cog in a big machine, and it seems
fiat and tame to spend her days
alone in little house, with nothing
more exciting to do than to go to
market.
DEAR MISS DIX-I am a girl of
18. I entered college this past fall
and hate it. I don't study and I
don't like school and never did, and
I want to quit at the end Of the
semester because it is waste of
time and money for me to continue.
My mother Is a widow with little
money and it is a great sacrifice for
her to send me to college. but she
was determined to do it. Don't you
think I should quit before I funk
out? I am not interested in what I
am taking and I want to go to a
school where I can take a course in
merchandising or interior decorating.
What shall I do? BOBBE.
Answer-You are certainly right
in thinking that it is waste of time
and money for you to continue in
college when you hate it and are
not studying and taking advantage
of any of the opportunities it Of
fers you.
Your mother should realize the
truth of the old adage about one
being able to lead horse to water,
but not to make him drink, and that
it is foolish to try to force on you
the kind of education that you do
not crave She should withdraw you
at once from college and let you
take up the line Of study that you
wish and in which you will probably
make a success.
There is no way in which so much
money is so foolishly wasted as by
parents gratifying their own pride
by sending children to college who
are not college material.

smearing them. This, we think, is
one of the most welcome inventions
that could possibly be presented
and when we remember the many
times we've manicured our nails
only to wreck them afterWard, we
could fairly jump for JOY at the
thought of these protective cover
ings. Be sure to see these; you'll
love them.
II. After your polish is dry, apply
a coat of colorless, protective polish
over the entire nail. The enamel
will last longer, and nails will not
break so easily.
IL. Use a cuticle cream or mani
cure oil around the cuticle and wipe
off excess with a towel.
13. Smooth hand cream over the
hands, wrists and we'll up the arm.
This is delightfully."- soothing and
will keep your skin soft and white,
lending the final touch to your
manicure.
1ACSC give yOo q
fairly good idea of how to care for
your hands and nails in order that
they may present beautiful ap-
pearance. Remember, too, that you
can enhance their appearance by
learning how to use your hands
gracefully, making them express
your charm. But, don't talk with
them. Frantic waving of your paws
is merely distracting, not entranc-
ing. And watch your jewelry. Love-
ly rings and bracelets well suited to
your type of beauty are wonderful
devices for calling attention to nails
and hands, provided that those ex-
tremeties are deserving of notice.
And do accept our very best
wishes for a beautiful new year!

Resolutions
All Should
Adopt
Beauty Attained
Only if Health
Is Foundation
BY PATRICIA LINDSAY.

Greetings to you and may some
of your ardent wishes be granted
during the next IL months.
You can help wishes come true
by starting off the new year in the
right manner. What happiness you
reap, and what success, depends
entirely upon your approach to
living. The first step to take is to
desire to be healthy. for health is
the keynote Of happiness.
If you are ailing even the least
bit have a good medical examina-
ton. Next drop in and have your
dentist look at your teeth. If both
reports are favorable your health
program is simplified. If either
physician or dentist urges a correc-
tive treatment, by all means heed
his advice and push all other things
aside until the needed treatment is
finished. Nothing, absolutely moth
ing, is as important to you as your
health. Remember that each day
during the next 1865.
Acquire healthful habits. Eat
scientifically of foods which will
nourish your body properly at regu-
lar meal hours. Guard against
tiredness by getting sufficient rest
daily and periods of relaxation. Exer-
else as much in the open air as you
can for fun and physical workout
# you cannot get out, exercise at
home.
2. Correct mental diet. Stop feel
ing sorry for yourself. Look at life
realistically. We all have duties,
work, trouble. Take them in your
daily stride. Give your mind relax
alton through good books or by con-
centrating on a hobby during lei
sure hours. Give of yourself to
others-there is always some one
worse off than you. Learn how to
find happiness in your own back
yard! It's there if you will look
for it.
3. Don't worry. Worrying only
breaks your nerve and burns up the
energy which should be used to
tackle the problem. Keep calm in
face of trouble-think your way out.
No trouble is as great as we expect
it to be.
4. Don't lead harassed life.
planned life allows time for work,
rest and enjoyment. Make haste
slowly! Cut out unnecessary de-
mandS.
S. Save some money. A bank &C
count, even a small one, is a great
comfort. It makes the first four
resolutions easy to keep!
s. Once during the year take a
trip for change of scenery. Stay
away as long as you can. After that
you will want to get home! We all
benefit by change.
7. Don't lose temper more fire.
quently than once a month.
8. Reach for star. You'll never
get it but the higher you reach the
richer will be your existence.
8. Do not be afraid. Go after
whatever you want. Choke SELF
consciousness, shyness, timidness
A portion of life's bounty is for you
10. Resolve to be very attrac-
tive woman. Let me help with your
beauty problems. Use every asset
you have to become a charming
personality. With health as foun-
dation, beauty can be acquired
And beauty lures both happiness
and success. Your woman's BIRTH

Public taste in furniture is Ger
tainly on the up grade. Today,

Putting the bed on a fairly high
place has the double advantage Of
getting it off the cold floor and per-
suading the cat to stay in it. From
way back yonder, that old tree
climbing instinct will "out"-and
Pussy likes her abode high, wide and
handsome.
Bedding a cat down with news
papers has distinct drawback.
This lies in the fact that if you are
going to housebreak the kitten to
paper, it is mighty confusing for it
to know which paper serves the pur-
pose. A dirt box is probably the
best solution, but at this time of
the year should be undertaken only
where dry, warmed earth or sand is
obtainable, which presents difficult
problem. Later on, of course, once
the routine is established you can
make a practice of digging few
bucketfuls of dirt from time to time,
putting them in the furnace room or
in some heated, dry spot where they
can thaw out to be used as needed.
But until this earth theory becomes
practicable, newspapers will have to

work, but keep your eyes open that
the occupant of the bed doesn't use
them for chewing purposes.

AS to the procedure of house

Diet Is Very
Important.
Now, as to diet the authorities
differ widely-especially where GER

of about months to l year should
be fed three-quarters of a pounc

It's one OF the most annoying ano
awful looking habits you can have.
Glad you're not guilty.
However, we do know that you
may need some pointers on giving
yourself a manicure at home, and
here is the formula suggested by a
well-known creator of nail aids.
It's a general method which you'll
do we'll to follow:
Simple Rules
For Manicures.
l. Remove polish with lubricant
polish remover, using moistened
cotton and working toward the tip.
2. File nails with emery board,
being careful not to file too closely
at the sides as this may cause hang
nails
8. Remove any stains from ink,
nicotine, vegetables and the like
with a special remover.
4. Buff nails in one direction
only.
S. Apply nourishing cream
around the edges of the nail.
6. Use lubricant cuticle remover
with orange stick wrapped in cot
ton. Push back cuticle and work
under the nail tip gently.
7. Apply nail white in paste or
pencil form, scrub nails thoroughly
and dry.
8. Wipe each nail with polish
remover.
9 Apply a protective, colorless
coating. This increases polish wear
and strengthens nails.
10. Apply your polish, using
enough On a brush so that it flows
onto the nail smoothly. Outline the
half-moon with one light stroke
across the nail, then complete with
even strokes to the tip. Remove a
hairline of polish at the tip with
tissue or finger. Be sure to give
your polish plenty of time to dry,
for it must harden underneath as
we'll as on top.

For Radio Theft

Ted Bradley Glasgow, 32-year-
old Tacoman convicted March Z
of stealing a radio from the room
of Frank Gordon at the Tourist
hotel in January, was sentenced
to the state penitentiary at Walla
Walla Friday afternoon by Judge
E. D. Hodge.
The young prisoner, who has a
previous Jail record. was given a
term of not more than Is years.
Glasgow raised the defense that
he found the door of the room
open and the light on and that
his crime could not have been
more than petty larceny.
Judge Hodge denied a motion of
Glasgow's attorney, o. NJ. Pitzen,
for new trial.
