UNCLE RAYS CORNER

Since our stories about vitamins
I have been receiving letters from
readers of all ages on the subject.
Among them is one from a South
Dakota farmer who says that sew
eral of his pigs. which were born
last spring, have weak backs and
he wonders what to do about 1t.
The farmer said his pigs had
been kept inside through the win
ter. This gives hint as to what
probably is wrong with them. They
no doubt are suffering from lack of
sunshine Unless young animals
have sunshine, or else vitamin D in
their food, their bones will tend to
soften. 1t is the same with human
beings.
A letter has gone to the farmer
suggesting that he feed his pigs
vitamin D in one form or another.
Cod liver oil contains this vitamin
and one pound of it smoothly mixed
with 100 pounds of grain will make
a good supply. SKINNED milk
should be fed to pigs, at least dur
ing winter.
Most of the vitamin letters, how
ever, are about factor w. That

factor has something to do with
growth and it seems that ever SO
many people want to know more
about it. A 14-year-old boy writes;
would it be good for boy of IA
who is small in stature? I can't
have the fun of other boys of my
age"
To this boy should like to say
there is a good chance that he will
"sprout up" within year or two.
1t often happens that growth is
slowed down more in some cases
than in others.
On the other hand, he may not
be born to be tall" If a persons
parents and grandparents have all
been short, it is not likely that he
will become tall. If certain ances-
tors have been tall, others short,
1t seems a matter of chance as to
which children in a family will be

Factor w is to be found in milk,

these are rich in vitamins.
If a boy has a good daily supply
of milk it is quite likely that he

Don't Take Ny

By FRANK COLBY.
Dy TnhINh VULDIs
GooI
Noun. A place OF confinement;
jail.


Most readers are familiar with
this word and know that it is an
other term for jail. But there ap-
pears to be considerable uncertainty
as to the pronunciation. Cole" to
rhyme with dole. and gale" to
rhyme with dale, are frequently
heard. Neither is correct.
Gaol for Jail is still the official
form in England; in the United
States Jail is both the official and
literary form. We are perhaps more
familiar with the word gaol from
the title of Oscar Wildes poem THE
hllad of Reading Gaol," which he
wrote after his imprisonment in the
gaol of Reading, Berkshire County,
England.
Gaol and Jail are not only identical
In meaning, but the words should
be pronounced exactly alike.
Correct pronunciation: JAIL.

True Beauty
Includes
Charm
Thorough Grooming
Very Essential to
AttractiveneSs
BY PATRICIA LINDSAY.

Charming habits are as important
to ones personality as colorful ac-
cessories are to ones dress.
A lovely voice used well, in nicely
chosen words and gracious sentences,
is one of the most compelling beauty
assets a woman can possess. What
comes through her lips is far more
important than what color goes on
her lips!
Nice manners speak of good breed
ing. They are sufficient introduc-
ton to the people worth knowing.
1t does help to read reliable eti-
quette book but good manners should
be inherent. If you think right good
manners are unconscious. Selfish
ness, greed, intolerance, rudeness,
snobbishness and thoughtlessness
must be conquered if charming man
ners are to be attractively uncon-
scious. That isn't an easy task, but
it is worth working at.
Sincerity of action is so rare in
the majority of women that we earn
the criticism men heap upon us.
We do nice things for effect rather
than because we sincerely want to
do them. The sincere personality
dressed in the simplest of garb-al-
ways attracts, and earns the lasting
affection of friends. What you do,
do sincerely Make your actions
come from the heart Otherwise be
inactive!
Tactfulness, or considerateness,
radiates in this world like Portals
candle Long after you have for
gotten the moment you were kind, a
dividend of gratitude comes to your
doorstep. But remember never to
expect gratitude as reimbursement
for your tact-sometimes it takes
years for the person to realize how
tactful you had been. The enjoy
ment you get for preventing ill feel
ing or unhappiness compensates you
enough for the effort.
To be appreciative is to exercise
charm. 1t is part of good manners

You give a boy the impression

tion is how good-looking and smart

everybody admires him. Every girl
he meets is trying to marry him.
Every employer is on his knees Of
fering him a marvellous job at a
fabulous salary. And the only rea-
son he isn't President of the United
States is because he doesn't care for
politics. I'd rate the Egotist as sub
zero in the matrimonial market.
There is the Lout, the boy who
considers good manners and

excess baggage. He thinks he is
being witty when he says rude and
insulting things to girls. He criti-
cizes them to their faces and tells
them what he thinks of their

And there is the Patronizer who

Dear Miss Dix-We were much in
terested in your classification of the
different types of girls and their
matrimonial ratings. Now please
give us the different types of boys
and their ratings.
A GROUP OF GIRLS.
AnsWer-Well, to begin with, there
is Handsome, with soulful eyes and
Wavy hair which may have been the
gift of God or merely acquired at
the beauty shop. He is dangerous
only to very young girls and middle
aged women who fall for him like
ripe wheat before the scythe. The
in-between women are immune to
him because he seldom has an idea
under his curls and is generally
sickeningly vain.
He is bad matrimonial risk be-
cause he will spend his time posing
around before mirrors instead of
working. He will monopolize all of
the family's clothes budget and let
his wife 60 dowdy. His wife will
pass her days fighting off other
women and she will have to go
through life listening to people say
behind her back: What on earth
do you suppose made that handsome
man marry that frumpy little
Woman?'
There is the lad who is the Great
Lover. He believes himself irresist-
ible to women and that he has a
faultless sentimental technique So
five minutes after you have met him
he goes into his act. He will ask
you, in voice surcharged with Won
der and pathos, where you have
been all this time that he has never
met you before. Then he will men,
ton your different features in
laudatory terms and wind up by as
suring you that, though this may
seem to you sudden, he is DEATH

MenOrizing

Easy Way for Child
To Learn a Good
Vocabulary
By ANGELO PATRI.

Part of every childs preparation
for life should be the memorizing
of fine pieces of poetry and prose.
When the mind is stored with fine
thoughts, phrased in beautiful
words, the emergencies of life can
be met in better grace and stronger
spirit. Store the children's minds
with gay verse, comforting psalms.
the finest bits of our splendid
literary inheritance and you help
them to lay by riches that cannot
be lost or stolen from them. You
help them to build up reserve of
courage and faith and hope that
no emergency can shake.
I like to begin with Mother
Goose. These old verses are dis
titled wisdom. Study them over
in the light of your experience
and see whether that is not true.
The easy rhymes and rhythm make
learning simple matter of listen
ing and repeating. In this way
the children learn good words and
add them to their vocabulary as
easily as they breathe.
After Mother Goose come the
easy poems of Stevenson, Field and
Reilly. After that the world of
literature is wide open. I think
that all children profit by learning
the Ten Commandments, the
Twenty third and the Ninety-first
Psalms, the Beatitudes and the
thirteenth chapter of First Corin-
thians.
They all should recite the Get
tysburg address, the words of "The
Star Spangled Banner" America" !"
and America the Beautiful and
the Lords Prayer. All through the
school years they should be learn
ing such pieces and many others
that please them.
The children learn words easily
and repeat them correctly with
great pleasure when they are be-
tween the ages of 5 and 7, roughly
measured. They continue to
memorize easily until they are well
past 20, when it is not as easy. The
method of learning changes as they
approach these years, and they de-
pend more on content than on ac-
curacy. The time for accuracy,
which is important, is the earlier
span.
We do not ask the children to
memorize these pieces just to have
them recite publicly. They need
never recite before an audience, for
that matter. The important point
is that they learn these pieces of
good literature to acquire the es-
sence of experience and beauty that
is in them. We hope to enrich their
minds, their thinking and behavior,
and we hope, too, to enable them
to meet a crisis in their lives with
more serenity and surety by having
such thoughts to rely on.
One learning is not enough.
These pieces must be reviewed
steadily. Nothing is easier for chill
dren than to forget. They learn
rapidly and many of them forget as
rapidly. Many repetitions are
necessary to fix the lines in memory.
Once fixed they stay forever.
Don't make the lives of children
miserable by forcing them to recite.
If they like to do so we are that
much ahead because each recita-
ton helps fix the memory. Forcing
them to recite makes them hate
the whole business, and we really
want them to like it. Let us hold
to this old-fashioned idea in educa-
ton. Like many old-fashioned
things, It 1s good.
