Women are supposed to be inherently incapable of keeping check book straight Perhaps that's because this generation of married women is the first to have their own check books.
 Men are supposed to be entirely blinded by a pretty face so that they incapable of judging pretty woans character It's just possible that they aren't actually incapable of judging pretty woman. Maybe, if woman is pretty enough they just don't care about her character.
 MORE OF MANS PET IDEAS
 Interruptng spouse who is reading newspaper to make conversational remarks is supposed to be a purely feminine weakness Probably that is because the wife reads the morning paper after her husband goes to work, and the afternoon paper before he comes home. So HE can't interrupt HER.
 Forgetting to kiss a wife goodbye in the morning is looked on as typcaly masculine form of forget fulness Isn't that perhaps because 1t is the husband who always does the leavng2 If the wife had to run for train every morning, she might also get out the front door occasionally without thinking of a goodbye kiss.
 We may be complicating the relationship between the sexes by looking for fundamental differences of character instead of looking for common-sense ex- plantations of masculine and feminine behavior.

 This pause IS important - in the tango you always pause after bringing your feet together. And you step firmly but smoothly, NEVER hopping or leaping.
 The other tango movements are as easy to learn. With diagrams, in fact. you can learn to do any popular step well--make your part uers proud of you.

in the apuendix, and that the oth~ CT two per cent had duodenal ulcer stone in the kidney or other lesion Of the patients sent to him in Q hurry up operation for "acute ap- pendicitis" he found that in over half the trouble was neuralgia and hence he did not operate. AS for chronic appendicitis" many good physicians question such a diag- nosis in any circumstance if tho patient has not had one or more attacks of acute appendicitis.
 Radiculitis is the frightful term doctors sometimes apply to the painful condition formerly called intercostal neuralgia. Intercostal nerves are sensory nerves arising in the spinal cord and passing out between the vertebrae and extend- ing around the chest between the ribs. They supply the chest wall and the abdominal wall. Radiculi- tis means inflammation of the root of such a nerve close to the spinal cord. Whether actual inflamma- ton of the nerve root is present or whether the pain felt in the area the nerve supplies is just neuralgia (nerve pain)-aw, come now, how would l know. AS a rule 1t is not neuritis or radiculitis, just referred pain or neuralgia, in my opinion.

RADICULITIs

RADICULITIS
 Internal organs such as the ston1- ach, intestine, kidneys, heart, even the brain, have no sensation to touch or pain. The only pain produced by, say, Inflammation of the appen- dix or by gallstones or by stomach ulcer is actually bellyache, referred pain felt in the sensory nerves in the front wall of the abdominal cavity. If you prefer you may delete the term belly and say instead the front or anterior abdominal wall, but Haunt your ignorance and prud- cry by saying stomach" or "dia- phragm" when you mean belly.
 A boy riding on his bicycle to a fire got in the way of fire engine, was knocked to the pavement and sustained @ fractured skull and the loss of @ portion of his brain tissue. He carried on a running converse ton while the doctors were trim ming up the lacerated brain tissue and replacing the detached portion of the skull. Abdominal operations such as removal of the apuendix are painless, once the belly has been anesthetized with a local an- esthetic and the incision made but any undue distension, stretch- ing, tearing or pinching of the in- ternal organs or structures, while painless. nevertheless produces shock whether the operation is done under local anesthesia or under general anesthesia.

Glorifying Yourself
BY ALICIA HART NEA Service Staff Writer

The smart woman takes time out from serious shopping for new spring clothes and a new coiffure to give some thought to her voice and speech. She knows that harsh, rasping voice tones can spoil the effect of even the snartest costume, that no hair-do, however stunning, can quite make up for haphazard speech.
 It's as silly to say, But I can't do anything about my voice." as 1t would be to say, But I can't be slender" or T haven't time to get my hair done every week." Every one has time to do some of the simple exercises that make for a softer, more pleasantly modulated voice.
 A jaw and tongue that are tense will cause speech to be nasal or, at best, slightly harsh. The remedy lies in learning to hold the tip of the tongue against the lower teeth in- stead of tightly against the roof of the mouth.
 To relax your jaw, do this eXer-

else once or twice several times @ day: LOOSENING
 YOUR JAW
 Let your head fall backward as far as possible, relaxing jaw and opening mouth. Now bring head to an upright position. closing mouth slowly. Open mouth slightly and swing lower jaw back and forth. Close 1t slowly-and not too tightly. Upper and lower teeth should touch, of course, but it's a mistake to hold them crushed together. A tense jaw makes hard lines around the mouth as well as ruining voice tones.
 Remember that reading aloud is one of the quickest cures for bad pronunciation and unfamiliarity with words, which makes conversa- ton difficult. Speech experts agree that the person who will read aloud for fifteen minutes every day will, rather quickly, not only improve his vocabulary but his enunciation and voice tones.

Household Hints

The Waterbury Democrat., 1941-03-17

 Most national defense leaders be- lieve we can keep food costs at as low a level as Is consistent with services rendered. That means that our family food budgets, provided they are adequate, can be kept in a reasonable balance with nutri- tional needs and the extra demands made on our purses by defense costs. However, wise buying, no food waste and careful preparation of all ingredients must be the rule in every American home.
 A recent issue of Consumers Guide, published by the Department of Agriculture, sums up household economy hints. Here are few:
 "The most important single rule in meat cookery is to keep the tenn perature fairly well down (moder- ate), at least most of the time. This is true for stews, pot roast, and all the less expensive meat cuts, as well as oven roasts. It's cheaper to cook foods over the burners on the top of your stove than in the oven. Tender cuts suitable for oven roasting cost more money to buy, and they cost more money to cook, too"
 COOPERATE IN BUYING
 Get your neighbor to go in with you and buy your apples and oranges, and peaches and tomatoes by the crate or the box or basket. Then divide up. You'll be surprised at how much you'll save.
 Don't let the green grocer throw away the turnip and beet tops, or the cauliflower leaves. They con- tain valuable nutrients. Prepared like other leafy green foods, they make tasty and valuable foods.
 When you prepare vegetables, save the cooking liquid and use 1t in soups. There are health-giving vitamins and minerals dissolved In that liquid. The liquid in which canned peas and asparagus and lima beans and other canned foods are packed also has food value.
 COOKING RULES
 There are also few simple cook ing rules to follow in cooking fruits and vegetables which help you get more nourishment and flavor out of fruits and vegetables.
 Don't stir air into fruits and vegetables while they are cooking. Never use soda In cooking green vegetables. When you boil veg etnb'es bring the water to a boil as fat as possible. Use as little water as you can. Don't stew or slow-bake fruits and vegetables If fully developed at birth, twins and triplets measured at years og age do not usually show any appre- ciable retardation of growth.
 What is the difference between cocoa and chocolate?
 A. Both are prepared from the cocoa bean. but chocolate contains c much larger proportion Of Tat than cocoa.
 Q. Please tell me how to clean a copper cup.
 A. Rub 1t with piece of cut lemon and salt Wash carefully with warm water and polish with a dry cloth. ., '''
 o. Should I continue to use "jun- for" on my cards after my fathers death? My mother is still living and of course, she bears the same name as my wife.
 A. This is somewhat a matter of personal taste but strict etiquette requires the dropping of the suffiS junior" and your mother becomes triplets measured at years of preferably, sirf'v Mrs. Smith.

Bo||es Urges
Dimning Lights
To Guard City
First Complete Test
BIuckout Unlikely
For Several Weeks

Emphatic advice to residents and
business houses of washington and
its suburbs to darken all unnecessary
lights was voiced today by Col.
Lemuel Bolles, civilian defense di-
rector.
Under present plans the first COM
plete trial blackout will not be
ordered for perhaps several weeks,
but common sense, he said, dictates
that householders, apartment and
hotel dwellers and business houses
begin now to keep from lighting
Washington as a possible bomb
target.
However, he declared, the civilian
defense program here now is "going
over" and the public is beginning to
cooperate by dimming lights.
Signs Blaze Brightly.
He added that some stores still
leave advertising signs blazing
brightly at night.
"It should be remembered" said
Col Bolles, that failure to CO.
operate may mean the blasting out

IF we, or some of us, continue to

and adding to its wartime hazards.
IF lights are necessary they should

to improvise shades and screens if
the desired materials cannot readily

not wait for shipments of this kind
of shades or that. Improvise! That

Speaking of the general civilian
defense setup and referring to the
thousands of volunteer workers now
being trained and assigned to duties,
and to the food of volunteer offers
still coming in, Col. Bolles said:

Prince Georges Board

A settlement of the controversy
over the resignation of Lewis Knox,
Surrattsville CMd) High School
teacher, which nearly provoked a

Board of Education, was announced
yesterday by County Supt. Nicholas
Orem.
At a board meeting this week,
the effective date of Mr.. Knox's
resignation was changed at his re-
quest from December 81 to June 80,
1912. Meanwhile, he has been trans
ferred to the Bladensburg High
School for the rest of the school
year, Mr.. Orem explained.
Mr.. Knox submitted his reSigna-
ton after a meeting of the board
last month, but later demanded a

ton and threatened suit unless one
were granted.
