because it disappears instantly into
the skin. It's beauty-saving night
creme alright, lubricating the surface
of the skin without grease. Use it and
avoid soiling bed linen and nighties
and that awful feeling that comes
from going to bed with face covered
with greasy goo. Beside, its perfumed
heavenly. Ask about it when next
buying night creme.

OF course you've tried your hair in
pompadour, but we don't blame you
if you're not wearing it that way.
Altho the new hair style is appropri
ate to both young and old, and many
of the new hats have been designed
to natter the pompadour, still, if its
not becoming, then, abandon it. Most
OF the young things seem to prefer it
long in the neck, altho the ends should
be turned up in a sleek roll

As told to
CAPTAIN r. II. Dunlap

Columbus, O.-American youth can
help this country flying a derisory
thumb at all the Mr.. Bigs' in the world
by enrolling in the Army's Flying
Cadet pilot training program" Milo
J. Wamer National Commander Of the
American Legion, said today.
The Legion Commander commented
on the need for pilots to man the
planes this country is marshalling
"to beat the threat Of the dictators.
The manner in which this job is
tackled by young America will deter
mine whether we in this land can send
message to Mr.. Big in Europe and
Asia to Keep Of and have it under
stood so clearly that it will be obeyed
without hesitation," Warner said.
Declaring, we've a lot to do to get
this country Of ours prepared for the
worst the dictators may have in mind,
he said: Our task is to do all Of it
so thoroughly, so completely, and 50

EQUAL CHANCE

\ great task remains in determin-
ing the nature Of the training in the
new army, in providing q discipline
which will be consistent with the dem
ocratic tradition, and in making char
acter and competency the sole bases
for promotion. We must have edu-
Gated officers, but it ought to be laid
down as an unbreakable rule that
from now on the brictlayer's or farm
er's son shall have an equal chance
with the public officials or the mil
lionaire's. There should be no place
in the new army for the abhorrent
theory of class distinctions.-The

m TIE CEIILDREN'S
ROOM
LYDIA LION ROBERTS

The most interesting kind of chill
dren's room is one that is never wholly
completed, that holds an element of
anticipation because some new feature
is always being planned or worked
upon. If the children themselves have
the larger part in this enchanting
process, the room will become, for
them, very satisfying.
The play table may be made most
unusual and fascinating, if it is trans
formed into poetry table. First be
sure there is no oil or wax on the
surface. "Wax-off" will quickly re-
move it. If this is not available, con-
suit a painter. Let the children col
lect from papers and magazines, or
have typed, enough poems that they
really like to cover the top. Help
them to glue the poems to the table,
arranging them with spaces between
so they may be easily read and an
artistic effect be produced. Shellac, or
if one of the children is old enough
let him shellac, the whole top, giving
it several coats so that hard smooth
finish is obtained. Be sure to use white
shellac, and test its drying qualities
on and around a small piece of paper,
later to be covered by poem, pasted
on this same table, before the shellack-
ing is undertaken.
A table like this will be Of unend
ing interest to the children, and it
NAV be used for ordinary activities

GHOSTLY SOUNDS EXPLAINED

Grand Island, Neb.-Ghostly rap

MEANINGLFSS?-

The suggestion has been made that
the Armistice Day holiday be abol-
ished, since recent events abroad have
made its observance meaningless
That's one way to look at it. The
other is to change its name, perhaps
ard devote it TO an annual rededica-
ton by all Of US to the principles Of
democracy on which this nation was
founded and for which tens Of thous-
ands gave their lives in 1917-1918.-

You can estimate the weight Of a
piece of ice, by measuring the length,
breadth and thickness, multiply the
three numbers together and divide the
product by 80. The result is a reason
ably correct approximation of the
weight in pounds. Well-frozen ice
weighs about 56 pounds per cubic
foot. The weights and measures law
provides, however, that ice shall be
weighed at the time Of delivery and
housewives should insist upon that
being done.

GLA NOR

Very few women walk with any de-
gree Of grace, but effect slouch or
slump that is anything but graceful.
Poor posture is easily corrected if
women will put their minds to it.
Back yourself up against wall with
heels, buttocks, shoulders and head
touching. See how much taller you
feel. Pull your tumNy up and in, not
just in by holding your breath. But
when you pull it up and in your but
tocks automatically tuck under, max
ing you Gatter there too. See how
good you feel in this position. Now
hold it. AS you walk down the street
keep your mind on your posture. When
you approach the stop-light, stop pull
yourself up and in again if you've
sIumpcd DO this at each corner inter
section. After you've practiced it for
week you'll suprize yourself to see
how easy and natural it becomes to
hold yourself that way. Shortly you'll
travel with the air of queen.

PANTRY PALANER

The Bureau Of Home Economics, L.
S. Dept. of Agriculture, has defined
a cooking vocabulary for the amateur
cook so that she may more readily
understand her cookbook. For instance:
Simmering means to cook in water
just below the boiling point.
Panbroilng means to cook in a
skillet on top without added fat, water
or cover. Pour off the fat that rem
dcrs out so that meat will rot cook
in fat. Good for tender steaks and
chops.
Scattering comes from the french
word "to thumb" but in cooking it
means to brown the food in little
fat, turning often to prevent sticking.
Frying means to cook in fat, either
deep fat or shallow fat in a skillet
Braising means to brown in little
hot fat, and then cook the food in a
steam by covering, with or without
added liquid.
Scalloping originally meant to cook

New Puett Gate Boon
 To Honest Racing

than been closed than, bangi the horses were off and running, and in q perfect line.
 When e start out of the new gate takes as much as two minutes it Is considered miserable. This is a good break for players, owners and horses. Long post delays can and frequently do change the form on 0 race, especially if e horse is carry- ing a lot of weight. The longer such e horse stands there waiting for the green light the more fatigued he gets.
 This Is one of the reasons why the new gate should be factor in inak- ing form stand up better. No long, CT should 1t be necessary to figure on post behavior as an important pre.race consideration. Say Q Sea- biscuit or a Challedon is asked to carry l36 pounds, e lot of weight, by the way. Right off the trainer and the owner know the horse isn't going to wear himself out at the post waiting for some balky crit- ter to get in line.
 We think the various racing agen- cies, first of all, of course, the jockey club, have done much for the betterment of racing both on the moral and the competitive side. But we are beginning to wonder if, in the end, science Isn't going to wind up taking the most elaborate bow.
 Racing today, in most phases, is 80 much better and SO much more attractive than 1t was, say ten years ago, that 1t Is almost futile to sug- gest comparisons. The new gate Is the latest progressive step, and in our mind the most important that has been made to date.
 The camera eye Is e bang Up sec- ond, Just as anybody can be Q starter today because of the new gate, so can anybody be @ judge because of the camera which photo- graphs the close firishes. When a horse wins by ten lengths you don't need e judge. When he wins by a whisker the judge passes the buck to the camera,
