Dear George, do you know why
you got the mumps? It's the
punishment for neglecting your old
friends and not coming to see me
and getting your jaws working on
some of this Biltmore food and
sampling the famous Crockett Dia-
quiri.
Somebody handed me today a
copy OF your story telling about
your delicated condition, and l find
the same deals also with Bonnie
Baker and the story of her report
ed marriage.
. We'll, Bonnie, who spent an
hour in my Office the other day,
assures me there's nothing in the
report of her engagement and
that she is not married to Orrin
Tucker, "cross her heart" She
seems pretty sore about the stories
to that effect that are going about,
and if you weren't such a flinty-
hearted and hard-headed cuSS,
you'd come in and witness the big
hit that Bonnie and Orrin Tucker
are making in the Bowman Room.

Some will accept it in full and others will

before the convention of the American In
stitute of Electrical Engineers.
Looking out on the present and the recent
mast, Mr.. Wilson found convincing evidence
that the whole world is in state of flux.
Civilization, he said, is passing through the
second stage of Revolutionary movement
Of the masses based upon sense Of frustra-
ton, an emotional manifestation frequently ap-
preaching unreasonng sacrificial hysteria." !"
And this movement, which exists in our own
country as well as those under totalitarian
regimes, may be destined to live for many
years.
It is necessary to see the situation as it is.
Mr. Wilson said, because it is dangerous to
fail TO deal with it realistically. In this coun-
try, specifically, Mr.. Wilson declared, the
hunger for economic as well as for political
freedom and justice poses problem for those
who believe in free enterprise. The system
must become 'the primary provider of eco
nornic security for all Of the people at all
times" This goal can be won only il the
leaders prove by deeds as well as words their
understanding of their social responsibilities,
their obligation to the public, and their ability
to plan and create and perhaps police a pro-
gram of commercial and industrial progress
accountable to the majority Of our people.

CHILD LABOR LAW
DRIVE TO CONTINUE
Chief of Children's Bure u
Says Effort to Get Amend
ment Will Be Pushed

WASHINGTON, Feb. s. -
Katharine F. Lenroot, chief of the
children's bureau, said that efforts
to get the long-pending child labor
amendment ratified would con-
tinue because the wage-hour law,
upheld today by the supreme
court, covers only children in in
terstate commerce industries.
To protect all children it is nee
essary to have legislation regula-
ting their employment in intra-
state industries as well as inter-
state, Miss Lenroot said.
In upholding the fair labor STAN
dards act, which contains pro-
visions regulating child labor, the
supreme court over-ruled its 1918
decision which held unconstitution-
al statute prohibiting the inter-
state transportation of child-made
goods.
1t was after the overthrow of this
statute, passed by congress in
1916, that proponents of child labor
legislation began work for a con-
stitutional amendment giving con-
gress power to regulate employ
ment of children.
In 1924 congress approved t h e
child labor amendment and it was
submitted to the states. Since then
% states have ratified it. Eight
more states are needed.
Miss Beatrice Mcconnell head
of the industrial division of the
children's bureau, estimated that
only one-fourth of the children
gainfully employed are in inter-
state industries d

Placid Minds
Cause Pale,
Aging Skin
BY DONNA GRACE

WHAT TO do about aging
skin is the theme Of today's col
umn. Women write Of their
heartbreak in the change of
their complexion as they ad-
vance in years. They feel some
thing can and should be done
about 1t and they are right.
Advanced years do bring a
change in the skin texture and
there Is nothing one can do
about this. There is bound to
be this gradual change but it
need not impair beauty and
good looks.
The decline after 40 Is when
we should be concerned about
keeping the skin young. Modern
specialists say one of the con-
tributing factors to this grow
ing old is lack of animation and
interest in immediate things.
Outside Interest
They advise all home women
10 be interested in something
outside their own surroundings.
Placid minds reflect in the skin
and the result is pale. thick
appearing texture. It takes
mental and physical activity to
retain the translucency Of youth
full skin.
But mental stimulation Is only
half the cure. Physical treat
ment is also necessary.
The daily use of soap and
water discourages the formation
OF sallow dull surfaces. Plenty
of fabrication every day relieves
the dryness.
Packs and bleaches will re-
move yellow patches and help
TO shed dull skin.
Face Exercises
Here are some face exercises.
Open the mouth, twist the lower
jaw TO the right, then down and
ID the left. Stretch the neck
and thrust the chin forward. then
back, with the head. Feel that it
moves back from the top of the
neckline rather than by relaxing
neck muscles. Do 10 Of these
whenever possible.
Move upper part Of the face
from right to left and alternate.
Move eyes from side to side and
roll them. Thrust out the tongue
several times. These help TO
keep the face alive and interest
ing.
Be sure your eyes are not
strained. Have them examined
occasionally and be sure If you
have glasses that they are prop
erly fitted. Do not wear then
more than two years without q
complete checkup.
