old Acqualntances Are snobs?
 Frozen by . couple who were once her friends, she'll weep on her pic low tonight-"Snobsl"
 She'll never realize 1t was her vocabulary that repelled them, for she inagines that her "Where are you RE9IDrNQ9" and T always RETIRE early" are ultra-refined,
 But discriminating people don't use such pretentious words. They say, simply, "Qo TO BED" and Living" To thOm on affected speaker appears ill-poised, of poor background.
 The oddest part Of it is, people who converse" rather than "taik" are the very ones who make crude errors like borrowed off" for "bor- rowed from" and ''leave 60" for "let go."
 While avoiding such obvious slang aS guy" they still give themselves away with "Soup-and-fish" for "for- mai dress" and "gadget" for-al- most everything.
 Cultivated people are specific inN their speech. The "gadget" Is Riv. en It's right naI1ie-and other adjec. tives are used besides "nice" and "awful"l
 Yet anyone can learn to speak in q cultivated manner. Our g. page booklet helps you enrich your vocabulary, lists frequent mistakes in English and pronunciation, with correct forms. Explains words Of. ton inig-used.
 Send 10 cents in coin for your copy of How To Improve Your Vocabulary" to Waterbury Demo. crat, Home Service, 03b sixth Ave, New York, N. Y. Be sure to write plainly your name, address, and the name of booklet.

One who has had either treatment may live out his or her life expectation, and probably will live longer than he or she would have lived without such treatment.

A TACOMA SUNDAY SERMON:

The Rev. Paul Deane Hill. pastor
Of Roosevelt Heights Christian
church. selected The Victory
Road" as his Palm Sunday sermon,
delivering II 10 the morning con-
gregstion.
The pastor pointed out through
Christianity parts Of the world
have beer lifted from harbarism
70 orderly. progressive communi-
ties. citing this as an example
to show the victory march, started
BY Christ in Jerusalem, has not
ceased.
His sermon. in part. follows:
When DR.. E. Stanley Jones went
to India over 80 years ago. he found
the people there suspicious. even
antagonistic, toward wester
Christianity. They asked him,
What has Christianity to offer
that our religion has not ?" He
answered simply, Jesus Christ"
And thousands of educated high
castles have thus found in Christ
what they could not find in all the
PHILOSOPHERS of the east and west.
Christianity has been a victory
road.
IL was the week before Easter,
commonly called Palm Sunday,
that Jesus entered the city of
Jerusalem to be crucnied on the
cross. He changed the cross,
which had been an emblem of
shame, enmity. hate and evil TO
symbol of hope. brotherhood, love
and righteousness. His tomb is
empty now. For 1000 years all
the armies that ever marched, all
the nsvies that were ever built, all
the kings that ever reigned, all the
legislative bodies that ever coun-
seled and teachers that have lived
have not effected and changed life
on this earth as did Jesus of Naz-
areth. Christ marches on the VIC
tory road.
The victories of Christ are not
limited to His generation. He was
an example of what God is and
what man is to be. Jesus was a
great God and a great man in the
same universe. He was not only
