Perfumes Do Lend

sounds a bit commercial to our

Nest of us are hustling through

Or office. And why won't the aft

MORE FASTIDIOUS
One of the pleasant signs If the
time is that women are becoming
more and more fastidious in the
choice of scents. Ten years ago
there was frenzy for perfumes
that were strong enough to work
IN section gangs. You would pass
a lady On the street. or she would
watt into a bus, and your nostrils
would be assailed and insulted.
That's not the case now.
The girls are going subtle. When
they find a perfume that pleases
them they stick to it They don't
mix them. Which means that the
entire wardrobe becomes impreg-
mated with their favorite selection.

Exploitation Of Women Is
Blasted By Ark. President
DR.. Watson In
Strong Address
At Kansas City

KANSAS CITY, Mo.-(SNS)-A
powerful and determined voice re-
sounded in the Second Baptist
Church here Sunday when DR.. j
B. Watson, president of Arkansas
State College pleaded the cause OF
the financially and socially under
privileged Negro girls who are
being victimized by Inscriptions
people
DR.. Watson spoke to a very inn
preSsive rally in behalf of the Big
Sisters Home, a philanthropic in
stitution in Kansas City for the
education and uplift of underpriyil-
eyed young women.
Tracing the case of exploited wo-
manhood in historic perspective, the
distinguished educator exposed the
i'll treatment to which women have
been subjected continually in the
past He blasted the terrific ex-
ploitation which Negro women have
experienced in the past and are
experiencing today because of their
financially and socially underprivil-
edged position.
THAT the race people themselves
are keeping ahead in this scheme OF
exploitation is most deplorable,'
said DR.. Watson. In his opinion, the
subject is one of extreme impor
lance to us all of today. The time
has now come when men and wo-
men of vision and Christian Chart
ty must act in order that through
out these United States, underpri>
viledged Negro girls will obtain
better chance for education, en-
ployment, and respectable living.
DR.. Watson substantiated his plea
by referring to the moral and
spiritual foundations on which
christianity is built up He pointed
to the attitude of Christ, to the
humble and lowly, how Jesus came
seeking and saving that which
was lost" and how He strongly de-
nounced the attitude of the Phra-
sees, Scribes and other vested in
tereStS which kept down and trod
upon the rumble and the lowly.

THERE Is ONE MUST in the
daily diet that many housewives
seem to have trouble with, and
that is the item of whole grain

GRAIN PRODUCTS are good
sources ot energy. Fdours and ce-

foods but arr important for pro-

the whole grain are valuable for
some CT the vitamins and for iron

things that make YOU sick if you
don't get them.
THE KIND AND FORM of ce-
real as well as the amount make
a difference in the cost and in the
value However well we like them,
and no matter if they are conven-
lent to use, the ready to eat
breakfast foods are much more
expensive in proportion to weight
and to food value than the ce-
reals that are cooked at home.
So get on speaking terms with
bulk oatmeal, race, wheat, and
many others.
YOU DON'T HAVE TO use
whole grains exclusively for break
fast you know. There are the
brown flours that may be used
for at least part of your baking.
Nut Bread: Mix and sift a cup

and half of white flour, cup

a cup of sugar, six teaspoons of

FretfuI Wife
Asks Sue For
Some Advice
BY SUE LEAF

Dear Sue Leaf:
My husband and I have been
married little more than five years
and we have a fine baby girl.
He has started running after wo-
men and very seldom stays at home.
When he does spend the night at
home, he does not sleep with me. I
have done all wife can do to make
him happy and to help him.
Do you think he will ever be the
same as he was?
Perhaps, now that you have a
child to cOnfine you at home, your
husband is taking advantage Of
you and doing the things he has
wanted to do all of the time. There
is another angle to this proposition
Of having baby in the home after
so many years. You, no doubt, have
transferred your affections to the
baby, where you, all of this time,
have babied him. 1 would be will
ing to bet that he is jealous, as
men are, because he does not get
all of your love and attention now.
You will just have to keep on like
you started with him and let him
think he is the whole cheese all
of the time and everyone and every
else is secondary.
l hope you get along all right
with him. 1t is somewhat disheart-
ening to. know that man treats
you all right until you go right
through the shadows of death for
him and then he starts playing with
your love and devotion. He really de-
serves killing but you will have to
smile and pretend it does not mat
ter and all too soon, it will not
matter.
