CORRECTION OF OUTSTAND-
 ING EARS

I am at 8 loss to explain it, but I always assume that a fellow witt outstanding ears is pugnacious, ill., tempered and of a mean disposition and this in spite of the fact that the fellows with outstanding ears I have known were generally good natured, kindly and altogether likeable guys. How do we get that ! way
 If you have outstanding ears and doubt that you are endowed with the right personality to compen- sate for the effect on P. A. it is comparatively simple to have the fault corrected.
 Perhaps any good doctor could do the operation, but not every doc tor knows the many special maneu- vers or twists of the wrist which the sculptural or plastic" surgeon employs to insure perfect healing after such corrective operations In the present backward state ot practice it is not quite "ethicaP' for the doctor who limits his practice to sculptural or plastic or recon Structive surgery to announce the fact on his office door. There the oculist, the nose and threat spe- cliaist, the general surgeon, the dermatologist and 8 dozen other kinds of specialists have the advan- tage of him, for they can and do in- form the public that their practice is limited to this or that field. So in order to find a reliable plastic or Sculptural surgeon, you must ask your doctor to recommend one for you, or else you may write to men and I'll name one as near as ] can find on my list.
 Outstanding ears may be cor rected under local anethesia in the sculptural surgeons office. It looks like a simple twist of wrist, but ] don't know the half of it. He first injects a local anesthetic, waits un- til sensation is absent, then makes an incision along the line where the ear and side of head meet. He neat ly removes an elliptical piece ot skin and ear cartilage from behind each ear according to exact meas urements, and suttres the skin margins together by interrupted silk sutures. This gives permanent correction, for removal of the por- tion of cartilage breaks the spring effect in the auricle which makes the ears stand out. Otherwise the auricle would protrude again be- fore long. There remains a thin linear scar located in the fold be- tween back of ear and side of head where 1t is virtually invisible. The sutures are removed about Q days after the operation.
 Ears taken in while you wait So 1t seems to the patient or to the onlooker. But as said, tt Is not quite So simple as that in fact; it is only the special skill of the surgeon that makes 1t seem simple.

The following recipe serves four: I pound shrimp, l package lemon gelatin, head lettuce. 2 tablespoons vinegar, l cup cooked peas, cup grated cabbage, l bunch radishes. salt and pepper. Cook the shrimp. remove shells and clean. Prepare lemon gelatin according to directions on the package, SUD- stituting two tablespoons vinegar for part of the water. Chill. When gelatin mixture begins to thicken add seasonings, cooked peas, and grated cabbage and turn into a ring mold. Chill until firm. Unmold on a bed of lettuce, pile shrimp in the center, and garnish with radish tulips.
 o. How can soybeans be sprouted?
 A. They can be sprouted in flower pot, a sink strainer, or any container that has holes for drain age and can be covered. Be sure the container is large enough, because the beans swell at least six times their original bulk as they sprout. Soak the beans overnight, and next morning put them in the container: cover it and leave them in warm place. Flood them with lukewarm water four or five times each day during the sprout period. In 4 to 6 days the sprouts will be 2 to 3 inches long. After that they should be kept in cool place. The sprouts are used in raw salads and in ome- lets, souffles, meat stews. or fric- assees. They are very tender, and to hold their crispness, should be added to hot mixtures just before serving.

Modern Menus
By MRS. GAYNOR MADDOX NEA Service Staff Writer

The job of Harriet Elliott, only woman member of the National De- fense Advisory Commission, is to protect the well-being of consumers in the drive for national rearma- ment. Every American woman in charge of family's weI-being has Q job on her own board of defense similar to that Miss Elliott holds in Washington. The homemaker's problem is to keep the men, women and children of her household ade- quately fed on an economical bud get.
 Miss Elliott denies that the aver age man is so "sot" in his old- fashioned ways of eating that he cannot be taught to enjoy food plan- ned on modern nutritional prin- ciples. Just watch men in lunch rooms and restaurants when they order their food. Ask college ath- letes what they want to eat. You'll ind large numbers of men proving they are aware of the part Scienti- f1c diet plays.
 ''Men know that what they eat affects their health and fitness" i" Miss Elliott insists. Tn the past sev- eral years there has been tremen- douS educational drive for nutrition al sanity in this country, and i am convinced that far more men have accepted the principles of nutrition that most women are inclined to acknowledge.
 Every cent of the family food dollar must be efficiently used. The housewife must learn how to spend her money, not just how to save it. She must learn what nutrients are needed in her daily menus and supply them in an appetizing way.
 When every cent of every food dollar goes to producing better health and better growth, then she can call herself an efficient mod ern manager.
 She will be doing her patriotic job of helping to keep the American standard of health and stamina equal to the demands of these strenuous times.

For Gay Indoor Garden
 Start FlOwering Bulbs

Autumn days are here-saying it's time to start towering bulbs if you'd have a truly lovely indoor garden this winter.
 And your window sills will be lovely, abloom from fall to spring, if you choose bulbs with different blooming periods, follow a few pointers on their planting and care.
 The fragrant hyacinth, the trail ing pink-flowered oxalis in our pie ture bloom in mid winter. But muc hearlier you may have autumn crocus and tender narcissus and later there are amaryllis, lilies-of- the-valley.
 To raise most bulbs successfully, you have only to give them good drainage and, during their roofing season, cool moist darkness. For drainage, put cinders or pebbles in the bottom of the pot as our dia- gram shows. Though the hyacinth prefers a garden pit for its root ing time, the other bulbs we've

 Women today are smarter about gray hair than they used to be. A head of gray hair no longer is some thing to regret but to use for all the chic it is worth.
 There is no smarter woman any. where, all ages included, than the woman with beautiful gray hair, who dresses up to it.
 GRAY HAIR
 NEEDS EXTRA CARE
 First of all, though the gray- haired woman realizes the smart. ness of carefully groomed gray hair. she also knows that no hair looks quite so bad when 1t is carelessly allowed to go its own sweet way. Wind-blown gray hair isn't lovely it is just frowZy.
 So the gray-haired woman spends more thought than her sisters on finding becoming coiffure, one that is smart as well as pretty, and is even more scrupulous than they in having her hair done the day before,- rather than the day after, it begins to look straggly.
 If her hair is bobbed, she keeps it fairly short.
 Whether it is long or bobbed, she sees that the hair at the sides of her face is brushed up-for that gives the face a young look. GRAY HAIR CALLS
 FOR DARING HATS
 The gray-haired woman can wear daring hats. And she should, for they proclaim to the world that gray hair has nothing to do with age, or woman's fashion con- sciousnesS.
 Earrings also are often very good flor gray hair sets them of like a fine frame.
 Makeup, of course, should be applied with a light touch. And light, delicate shades of nail polish are wiser choice than deep, flash ing shades of red.

Coyote had expected it would be.
Just as before he led Bowser straight
to the private summing bank of Red
dy Fox. This time Reddy wasn't
asleep. but he lay still, as Granny
Fox had told him to, until Bowser
was almost to him. Then up he
jumped and ran for his life. OF
course, Bowser saw him and start
ed after him, forgetting all about
those tracks of Old Man Coyote he
had been following. After a little
Granny Fox slipped in behind Red
dy and, the scent of her tracks be-
ing a little the freshest, Bowser be-
gan to follow her without knowing
it. Reddy slipped away to a place
where he could see all that hap
pened on the Green Meadows He
saw Granny run around the Smiling
Pool, across the Green Meadows,
and finally straight over to the far
corner where Old Man Coyote had
made his home. Reddy chuckled.
He could guess just what Old Man
Coyote was saying to himself.
Now, when Granny Fox reached
the home of Old Man Coyote she
played very sharp trick. She ran
round and round and back, and forth
and this way and that way, until
her tracks were so mixed up that
she knew it would take Bowser a
long time to work them out with
that wonderful nose of his, if he
even tried it. She hoped he wouldn't
try to. You see she ran right over
Old Man Coyotes doorsteps two or
three times. and she hoped that
when he reached that point BoWser
would realize that he had found
somebody's house and make such
a noise that Farmer Browns Boy
would come out to see what it was
all about
When she had mixed her trail up
enough to suit her Granny made

trail. Then she trotted off little
way and lay down in the grass to
watch what would happen. Up came

there was then! You see Old Man
Coyote had been too lazy to run
when he heard Bowser following
Granny toward his house. He didn't
think that Granny would dare to
come right up to his door, so he
just slipped inside.
When BowSer reached the door

inside, and how he did bark to let

pregnancy was announced recently
by the American Medical associa-

the "Scotometer," an optical instru-

Is pregnant. To date the investiga-
tons have not disclosed how early
pregnancy can be seen in the eye.
The signs are detected in the blind

Because there are numerous blind

Accidentally spilling a glass OF
water on his hostess brought Angelo
Bisenz fame and fortune as an in
dustrial designer in New York city.
He noticed that the glass and many
other articles which we handle in
our daily lives were not designed
to fit our hands.
Bisenz changed all this by what
he calls "formagenic design" He
has designed door-knobs which can
be opened with soapy hands, glasses
with non-slippable groove, a safe
ty razor that is easily gripped with
the fingers and many other house
