her reactions, and whether she eX-

Recently, after a rather lengthy

in which he almost had the child
believing that robins eggs were
pink instead Of blue, father pulled
one of her curls affectionately.
Did you ever see a robins egg?'
he asked. The little girl answered
affirmatively. And you still think

Joan felt her nose and this sent
dad into a fresh gust Of laughter
The child didn't see the joke, and
now that she appeared annoyed,
that too seemed TO amuse dad.
Hours later at the dinner table,
Joan frowned at her father. you
made me very mad before" she
accused. Good heaven!" father
exclaimed, do you still remember
that" III never forget it," Joan
replied gravely. This caused con-

ness. VindiCtiVe wives have brought
down all sorts of trouble, even just
for troubles sake, on husbands who
may not have been as bad as they
were represented and who might be
willing, but are unable, to support
the eX-Wife in the manner to which
she is accustomed.
There's a great deal TO be said
against, as well as for, the alimony
laws, but whatever side one is on,
there seems to be no good reason
why the receiver Of alimony should
not be taxed, since one is taxed on
all other sources Of income.
Joint Tax Opposed
The joint income tax, however.
is quite another and more serious
matter, since, after all, only a COM
paratiVely few women are receiving
alimony. In spite of the work being
done by many WOmenS organiza-
tons, the joint return provision
may be passed. although it seems
that the churches, as well as other
organizations, are opposed TO it be-
cause of it's effect on young people
who want TO marry.
Suppose a man makes $50 a week
and a girl S25. BY pooling their
salaries they figure that marriage
is possible under the present syS-
tenn Of taxation, but figured Jointly
it seems they would have TO cut
corners too sharp for comfort. They
would, If sensible. defer their mar
riage, which, according to church
and government, is bad business.
Mrs. Roosevelt acknowledges that
her sponsorship Of the joint tax has
brought her many letters of pro-
test and been the subject of edi-
torial comment. In her Syndicated
column recently she said in part
that she accepts the opinion of the
Treasury Department on the joint
income taz question, and she ended
by saying:
"A Joint income tax return, where
my husband and ! are concerned,
Will mean paying higher taxes for
both Of us. l do not feel that I can
take exception to that If it is going
to be Of benefit TO others"
Cases Not Comparable
wish she had not seen fit to end
the discussion, or her defense, at
this point. It would have been en-
tightening in the extreme to learn
who, other than the Treasury De-
partment, is to be benefited. The
combined incomes Of the President
nd his wife, even Jointly taxed,
would leave them a very comfort
able income, definitely over the
prescribed $4,000 mark. But in the
case Of our boy and girl brave
enough to try marriage on their
combined salaries, the balance,
after other taxes and living ex-
penSes are taken care Of, is defin-
itely on the seamy side. The two
cases are not comparable. This is
Mrs. Roosevelt, the clever pOliti-
clan, not Mrs Roosevelt, friend OF
women, speaking.

United States by plane TO become
Films LiaiSOn between London
and Hollywood. New York and
Washington. His duties will be to
arrange ShoWingS Of new British
Ministry Of Information films in
America; to COntriVe the exchange
Of film material, and the pooling
of ideas between the two countries,
so as to achieve complete coordina-
ton in films. AS the contact between
Hollywood and England on fiCtional
war stories, he will give the United
States studios the benefit Of his eX
perienCe gained in England on war
time screen problems.
Bernstein came to this country
last year to supervise the diStribu-

10000 theatres in North and South
America. Besides this he has
studied production in Hollywood. A
pioneering film man, he helped
found the London Film Society,
which introduced the best Russian
films to British audiences.
Forty-three years OF age, and
over six feet tall, the film eXeCu-

he first took over" as adviser Of
the Films Ministry Of Information,
that organization had produced
only three pictures. Now it is max

lures TO all British cinemas, it has
organized 70 mobile CinemaS cover
ing remote districts, and has estab-

which covers the Near and Middle
East. Additionally, all neutral

The Ministry's Central Film Lii
brary distributes 1900 information
shorts weekly, free to private pro-

and churches. 1t also hires motion
picture theatres, outside Of opening
hours, for the showing Of instruC-
tional films to air raid Wardens, the
home guard, and similar organiz-
atoms.
Finally, the Films division OF the

GET TANNED GRADUALLY

Hollywood, Cal.-NoW'S the time
for summing, more gardening, walk
ing and bicycling,
And now's the time" says Bette
Davis, ito give your skin that extra
care it needs because Of its more
frequent exposure TO the sun"
Bette knows whereof she speaks.
for it wasn't so long ago that Bette's
skin and health suffered from an
over dose Of sun.
First exposure to the sun calls
for the most caution" Bette says.
"A good protective skin lotion or a
tanning agent should be applied.
Then make the summing short to
begin with. Your skin fourishes
under small doses of the sun, but
long SiegeS are not only dangerous
TO your health Crobbing you of en-
orgy and perhaps giving you SUM-
poisoning, but make your skin
sore, swollen and painful, (not to
mention unSightly pink.
Your second summing is a matter
OF taking it gradually, too. You can
take longer exposures, but be sure
to keep the skin well oiled TO pre-
vent burning and drying.
After you have acquired the de-
sired tan, frequent oilings will keep
1t gliStening and smooth. But IL 1t
is impossible to retain your tan be-
cause of not being able to get out
into the sun very often, and you
lose much of it. it is advisable to be
just as careful on your next expos
ure. Treat your skin again as
though 1t were getting out into the
sun for the first time Of the season."

she is incapacitated. l mean she
gives none of her symptoms. So l
am inferring that she suffers from
shortneSs of breath and general
weakness. Rheumatism is primarily
caused by streptococcic infection
from some source of focal disease.
How 1t Develops
Most often this results from an
attack of tonsillitiS or from infected
teeth. Bacteria from these sources,
floating in the blood, find Joint
surface that is not quite healthy
and they start to multiply. This
produces an acute inflammation
which we call rheumatism. Then
comes fever, swelling, redneSs and
intense pain. The bacteria causing
tonSillitis, infected teeth and rheu-
matism possess an especial affinity
for the inner lining OF the heart
and It's valves. The result is So
called rheumatic heart.
The inflammation thus caused
affects not only the valves, but the
muscles of the heart, creating scar
tissue on the edges OF the valves
and in the muscle fibers. The mus
cular contractionS are weakened
and scars cause the valves to leak.
AS q result, not enough blood Is
pumped to the lungs, which &C
counts for the ShortneSS OF breath
and any general weakness. II the
trouble is severe enough, there will
be swelling of the legs and feet.
This infectious condition is the
cause of most heart trouble in
young people and is very serious
problem. If the cause of the trouble,
such as infected tonsilS and teeth,
Is removed and the patient can
rest till nature can restore the
heart, we may have recovery. This
comes when the heart muscle grows
thick enough to reduce the leak
age. There is sure to be improve
ment in the patients condition.
Very frequently 1t / m prove S
enough SO that the patient can live
4 prolonged and useful life. II the
initial attack is not fatal, reason
able care will leave the patient
fairly safe from threat Of sudden
death.
Surgery Unsuccessful
Mrs. d states that she has con-
suited physicians in several states,
but is not satisfied. One physician
told her that an eminent surgeon
had operated on the valves OF a
heart to straighten them out. He
succeeded in his operative scheme,
but failure resulted when the valves
contracted before the wound heal
ed. Surely we hear some fantastic
stories. To even reach the valves
we would have to enter the center
of the heart cavities.
While we were doing that, the
muscle could not contract and no
blood could pass through, and
death would result before the sur
gerry could be completed. Any in
Jury or stitching of the valves would
cause more scar tissue.
I agree that nothing is lmpoS-
sible, but some things we do not
know how TO do. This reader also
says that she read some place about
a foreign girl dancer who had
danced through an attack Of rheu-
mdllC lever III SltdI PAM DuI WIZ
no harm done to the heart. That
might be true. The bacteria caus-
ing rheumatic fever do not always
attack the heart. Even dancing, by
an expert, might not strain the
heart. Mrs. D says SHE has taken
digitalis and the salicylates. That
Is good treatment. My advice Is
that she place herself under the
care Of one good physician. Do as
he says and quit frettlng about
her heart.
