Dorothy Dix Says >>>
Happiness Is Great Stimulant
That Will Kindle Ambition

A young girl who is going to be
married asks how she can best help
her husband Well, there are just
as many different ways of helping a
husband as there are different types
of husbands. What's one mans meat
is another mans poison, and the
treatment that may put pep into
one husbands soul and make him
reach for the stars may make an
other husband sit down on the do
nothing stool and let Georgiana do
it. Sometimes wife lays the foun-
dations of her husbands fortune
with her penny-pinching, and some
times man has to hustle so hard
to pay an eXtravagant wife's bills
that it turns him into a go-getter.
1t all depends. Speaking by and
large, however, the best way in
which a wife can help her husband
is by making him happy. This is
the old recipe that Grandma used
when she was boosting Grandpa up
the ladder, but it still works. You
see misery is depreSsant, whereas
happiness is a stimulator. It is only
when we are feeling good that we
want to go out and do things. When
we are disgruntled and life leaves a
dark brown taste in our mouths, all
we want to do Is to slump down and
pity ourselves.
Besides this, there are many other
reasons why happy marriage is a
first aid to success for man. 1t
gives him faith in himself and his
judgment, whereas the man who is
married to shrew or a nagger Won
ders why the fool-killer didn't get
him on his wedding day.
The happily married man can
give his thoughts to his work, in
stead of half of his mind being oc-
cupied with brooding over domestic
woes. 1t is a great economy for
man to be satisfied with his wife and
his home.
And still another reason, it gives
a man an incentive, something to
work for and strive for. A man will
work his fingers to the bone for a
wife who keeps him happy, but he
will lay down and quit if all he gets
at home is whining and complaints.
Not without reason do the railroads
and the big corporations take into
consideration how his wife treats
him when they hire man.

lowed a fashion trend or period
has gone, never to return, let us
hope. Our homes today are a COM
bination of the best of American
tradition brought up to date with
all the contributions and conven-
fences that the world offers, to help
us live each day as comfortably,
conveniently and with as much grace
as possible. If there is any rule
to be followed, let it be 'let
your house reflect happy way of
living, built to your own individual
specifications"
Adapt Furnishings
To Mode of Life.
The house created and furnished
on this plan will solve its own deco
rating problems. Good taste, good
construction and simplicity of de-
sign are all things that can stand
long, hard wear and never go out
of style. Combine this with nice
color that you are happy to live
with, and plan it all to support the
life you live. The whole secret of
a real home is there. A dash of
drama in the way of a picture or
two, a dash of sentiment in the lit
tie things that reflect your hobbies
or personal interests and a bit of
the finer things of lite In the way
of music and books and flowers will
give you all the good things the
world offers within your four walls.
Don't be too quick to throw away
the things that are out of fashion,
but judge them for their own in
trinsic value and keep them for
another day when they fit into the
picture again. All of us remember
with longing the cut glass that
was discarded or given away when
tinted glass came into style, and
happy are the ones who can dig
out of the attic the cut crystal
punch bowl or the silver topped
crystal water pitcher, which is fash
ionable again. When a home really
gets its roots down into the mean
ing of things, 10 or 20 years makes
very little dent on the big scheme,
and the house that lasts unto the
third and fourth genIation finds
the earliest investments paying divi-
dends "a hundred years after"

Unpleasant
Remarks
Relatives Should
, Not Take These
Too Seriously
BY ANGELO PATRI.

Little children sometimes make
mistakes that embarrass their par
ents beyond words. Some people,
who do not understand little ones,
blame parents for teaching young
sters to say and do these unpleasant
things when quite the contrary is
true.
Cousin Emma was on a long visit
and was most welcome. Little Ellen,
aged 3, seemed to like her and
stayed much in her company. One
afternoon Cousin Emma objected to
something that Ellen did and told
her to stop it.
go home, you old Emma. you. I
don't want you here. I don't like
you." said Ellen, stamping her wee
foot.
To the family's dismay, Cousin
Emma took this seriously, packed
her bags and left the house, shak-
ing its dust from her feet and with
it all memory of its hospitality. IF
she hadn't heard it she wouldn't
have said it," was her parting re-
mark.
A certain grandmother was more
understanding of children's ways.
When her little grandson scowled
and told her, go home, don't love
you any more" granny smiled, gath
cred up her knitting and her specs
and her book and disappeared. No.
body else came in her stead, and the
room grew silent and big and empty.
Small grandson began calling.
Mama" When no answer came he
raised his voice and called, Granny
granny, come on back. need some
body to help me-"
Granny came quickly, poked her
head inside the door and waited.
please, dear granny, come stay with
me- I'm lonely"
We'll, I'm very busy, dear. Very
busy. Would you like to come to
my room and stay while I finish
this? I'm very busy"
Grown people have enough ex-
perience to understand little chill
dren's ways If they but make the
effort. Any grown person who places
a little child on the same level of
maturity as himself is certainly not
mature in understanding. There are
two children then, and one of them
Is spoiled past saving.
Families know each other in
dividually. Otherwise, they could
not be families. One always puts
up with the other. Nobody is so
completely unsettled as to be mega
tive influence in the household. 1t is
always necessary to adjust oneself to
the others, including the children.
This applies most directly to guests.
1t is fair to suppose that one would
not be invited where one was not
welcome. Hospitality and good feel
ing ought to be taken for granted,
and ones faith in the family should
be firm enough to stand up under
little child's footless remarks.
A guest ought to be more than
another chair at the table. There
Is always something a guest can do
to tighten the load on the hostess
back, If 1t is no more than staying
out of the way. Making friends with
the children. smoothing their diff
culties and heightening their joys
is one sure and certain way Of earn
ing a welcome. The children are the
reason for the home and the center
OF its interests. Family relatives
and staying visitors must revolve
about them or keep away from them.

American Home
A Combination.
We have gone down deep to the
roots of American life, selected types
of furniture that fit into our back
ground, borrowed from every coun-
try all that they offered in the way
of design. handcrafts and materials,
incorporated all of these into our
pattern and turned out the Amer

Look around your own house! You
have china from England, glass
from CZecho-Slovakia, silver from
Sweden, rugs from Brussels, linens
from France and the list might
go on Indefinitely. There is little
bit of all the world surrounding us
every day, and all of this we have
blended with our own heritage to
make it our very own. We have
learned to select the best and COM

bald EAGLES
AREPR0TECTED
National Emblem to be More
Than Bird of Biological
Interest.

Permanent protection for the bald
eagle, United States national emblem
and permanent nesting resident OF
border lakes in the Ely territory, was
made federal law last week coincident
with drive to halt persecution of the
vanishing species.
The bald eagle is found in consider
able numbers on Lac La CroiX and
Crane lake which stretch for miles
along the international boundary. They
may also be found along the boundary
of Itasca state park and Scenic state
park.
Counterpart of the bald eagle is the
golden eagle 1t does not nest in Min
nesota, but passes through the state
each spring and fall in migration. It
nests in far northern Canada.
The act protecting the bald eagle
asserts that by statute, tradition and
custom "the bald eagle is no longer
a mere bird of biological interest but a
symbol of American ideals of freedom.
It provides a fine up to $500, or six
months imprisonment, for killing, pur-
chase, sale or transportation of any
bald eagle. The same penalty applies
to handling eggs or destruction of nests
Minnesota bald eagles along Lac
La Croix and Crooked lake have been
protected because they are within a
game refuge.

We could choose brushes, brooms, scis-

physical and mental abilities. Such
toys as these could be included in this
group: wagons, planks, easy puzzles
small photograph with records of folk
songs, balls, tricycles, constitutional
toys and larger apparatus as jungle

When possible we should choose play
materials that a child can use without
adult aid, and we should remember, toe
many toys are worse than too few. A
child with too many toys never learns
to concentrate or exert himself.
Toys should be suited to the age OF
the child but these rules will serve as
suitable criteria for judging toys foI
most ages. Last of all, good toys can
be found in odds and ends of house
hold materials, such as boxes, paper
household utensils, bits of ribbon and
cotton reels. These often satisfy the
child and prove more worthwhile than
a flaShy toy from a toy counter.

CHOOSING SUITABLE TOYS FOR
CHILDREN.


Most parents and educators have
come to realize the Importance of play
in child's life. They agree that play
is as important for physical and mental
development as lessons. Manufacturers
of children's toys have also come to
realize this Importance and vie with
each other in producing costly dis
fractions. Though parents, friends
teachers and manufacturers mean well
they often find it difficult to choose
suitable toys for children from the
numerous and costly array before them
Often times, toy purchasers end by
buying playthings that attract, interest
or amuse themselves forgetting to take
into account the fact that this same
toy may bring neither joy or salts
faction to the child for whom it was
intended. If these same parents
friends and manufacturers would keep
in mind these few basic principles in
regards to children's toys, they would
make fewer mistakes in the toys pro-
vided and could feel assured they would
provide real happiness.
l. Toys should stimulate the imagin-
alton and creative effort, teach self
reliance and initiative. Toys such as
these could be included in this group

LINCOLN BLDG.
IS INSULATED

Insulation Of the attic of the Lincoln
school building with zonolite, a gran
ular all-mineral loose-fill insulation,
was completed this week under the
direction of L. j. Venard, special repre-
sentative of the Zonolite Insulation
company, Minneapolis, and the Lampert
Lumber company of this city. Local
men were used on the job.
Many prominent schools and build
ings on the range have been insulated
with the material, Venard says. They
include the Lincoln and Fayal schools
and the Park hotel, Eveleth; the john
son school and Fay hotel, Virginia; the
Senior high school and Balkan school,
Chisholm, and all Biwabik schools.
The story of zonolite is that of a
proSpector in Montana who came across
an outcropping of mica. He noted how
the exposed mica had expanded and
changed color under the heat of the
sun. Engineers experimenting with the
material found that it would expand
Is to 20 times at a heat of 1000 de-
grees and that it had very high in
sulating value.
