II you want the young school child's

him feel that he can come to you

Of getting the truth either through

However, the best opportunity for

but as yet there Is no sex attraction

the bodily and emotional changes
which will soon take place.

Of what you hear. It's going to be q

urally those for summer are either
white or light furs as the blond
foxes and natural creamy lynx.
Don't put your fur scarf away
either: 1t belongs with the faille.

irilly blouse that usually goes along.
Many summer dance frocks are
complete with little capes. pleated
or plain. made either Of some effec-
lively contrasting fabric. as lace,
or ofthe dress material. And
there's q tendency to drag along q
scarf to throw over ones head or

The mother Of q lovesick boy

not think the situation Is serious

seems to me that the important
thing Is not to magnify the situa-
ton, but to make him see It rs q

In the meantime keep him active

Cardwells Find
Happiness in
Arizona Hills
BY TALBOT LAKE

WE WOULD like very much to
interview Lawrence Cardwell
and his wife. Susie, but he moved
deep into the Arizona mountains to
get away from people, and SO We will
have to rely on what he says about
himself in his book. Mountain
Medicine"
He was born IS years ago In Lou
isville. KY. and when he was four
teen he ran away to Texas to be a
cowpuncher. A few years ago Card
we'll again ran away to be a cow
puncher. this time to ranch he
bought In Payson. Ariz. When he
was q kid he ran away from his
father. who wanted him to be a
minister. The second time he ran
away from the life of the city.
Cardwell has had quite a career.
He tested cars In Detroit, served In
the 238th Aero Squadron In the last
war. was q salesman. cab driver. re-
searcher. sales manager. and stu
dent of journalism and creative
writing at the University Of South
ern California. He and his wife grew
tired Of city life and went back to
the cows and horses in Arizona.
But what cows and horses! The
COWS are wild and you have to rope
and tie them to milk them. The
horses would give a dude a rough
time. You ride eighteen miles to get
the mail. hundred to hit q town.
Cardwell and his wife have had
to night every inch Of the way to get
the necessities Of life and rounding
up the cows means a wild time. full
of tell-for- leather riding. There's
not q page In Mountain Medicine"
where somebody. usually Cardwell.
isn't being bruised. bumped and cut.
The Cardwells live with practi-
cally no money. They make odds
and ends do. They raise their own
vegetables. and their first year they
had to dry everything because they
couldn't AFFORD the money to buy
Jars to preserve their food.
Mrs. Cardwell wanted for weeks
TO 60 to country dance. Forest
fires. floods. straying cattle. screw
worms In branding marks. delayed
and delayed her husband. Finally.
when he bathed and shaved lin the
open. and out OF tin tub he was
called to another forest fire. Mrs.
Cardwell Just tore up her greatest
luxury-a- mail order 1898 dress
and went back TO her back-break--
ing chores.
There's more In the story OF Susie
and Lawrence Cardwell than meets
the eye. They willingly left a world
they saw was buckling and went
back to the really primitive land,
and found themselves safer and
better of than their city brethren.
But caution - this life Is only for
those who can take, take and re-
take It.
