A DOGS Life!

AND WE like the story of the
Detroit buyer who took her pet
pooch TO New York in order
that he might be properly fitted
TO a new collar.
First of all. his highneSS
shared the stateroom with his
mistress instead of going bag
gage, as ordinary dogs are COM
PEELED to do. You are not TO
b bark. said she and he be-
haved accordingly crawling
under the bed every time any
one came to the door. And so the
conductor never suspected
thing. He was smuggled in and
out in camels hair topcoat, we
are told.
Then came the problem Of
what to do with him, while mi
lady treked about her business
=. and so an attendant college
trained) from the Canine Coun-
try Club called-.lor him each
morning. saw that he was prop
erly fed and entertained.
The doctor in charge Of this
elegant establishment was so
taken with our lovable friend
that he took him sightseeing
during the day - Grants
Tomb. etc.
So much for a dogs life.
It's just like getting married
all depends on the kind OF

Play Shoes
And Co++ons
60 Together
BY JOAN DEAN

FOOT LORE for the cotton
season -. that's the scheme Of
things today. Here are the 1912
play shoes that you'll wear in
doors and out for loafing or ex-
ercising, from April through No
vember.
The play shoe Is a very impor-
tant tonic TO the working girl
who's spent a day on her feet
and as result is nursing a Sc
rious case of sole-burning. It's
very important fashion TO any
woman who takes her fresh air
and muscle-building in one dose.
COLLEGIANS AS well as the
high school crowd have sane
toned the calfskin moccasin, as
shown in D.. in fact, it's stolen
the show from the saddle shoe,
which proves its popularity.
Although not new. it's tops in
practically for wear with slacks
or suits or little dresses.
The ghillie, lettered c in the
sketch, is a child Of the ballet
styles which hit the headlines
last fall. Comes in red. blue,
white or beige leather with a
laced braid platform. It's an
incompatible companion for
caper cutting.
The ever-flattering pump is
present in the group it's
letter b above. The open heel
on the wedge sole allows for
walking freedom a-plenty and
the nailheads on the toe glitter
gaily with every step. In this
one. you have a choice Of red,
green or beige.

good measure. II earns a place
by being made of monks cloth.
a wheat-like cotton fabric that
compliments your suits and
linen frocks.
While rubber~necking about
the shoes displayed in the same
store. we saw several other fair
weather models. For instance, a
Grecian sandal in light leather,
criss-croSsed on the fore part of
the foot.
The huaraches. from Mexico
are there in white and beige
happily priced at Sl.99. Foot-fit-
ting moccasins with drawstring
arrangements, the year-after-

To Cook

To cook spinach so that II
appears on the table in an at
tractive bright green state. wash
carefully through water several
times. When all of the sand and
grit has been removed, simply
shake the leaves out of the last
water and put into kettle over
heat.
Do not add any water; that
which clings TO the leaves is suf-
ficient for cooking. Do not
cover kettle, or the bright
green color will change TO
brown. Do not add soda.
Here are recipes which will
aid you in bringing variety into
daily menus.
Florida Spinach
Wash and drain 2 pounds OF
spinach. Cook in uncovered
kettle, without adding water,
just until tender about 3
to 4 minutes.
Melt 4 tablespoons butter in
a sauce pan. Peel a large grape
fruit and remove the white
membrane. Cut on each side of
dividing membranes and remove
section by section. Add grape
fruit sections to melted butter
and cook very slowly until
heated through.
To serve, season spinach with
salt and top with heated fruit
and sauce. Serves 6.
Spinach Salad
! red apple, unpeeled
u head raw cabbage
Z stalks raw spinach
small onion
Il teaspoon salt
Salad dressing.

Make Exercise a Part
.f Your Morning Routine
By IDA JEAN KAN

calisthenics, bear in mind that
you have been lying down for a
number of hours.
Take your dozen or so exer-
cises in a prone position. This
will give you a good send-off for
the day. Moreover, this position
is the best for taking exercises
to strengthen the midsection
muscles, the kind you are most
apt to need. Here is a good be-
ginning Set;
Begin With These
POSITION-Lie on your back
on the floor with knees flexed
and feet on floor close TO hips.
MOVEMENT-Dig the small
of the back into the floor, hold
and relax. Repeat five times and
rest. Then, from the same posi-
ton, dig small of back down into
the floor and progress in the
exercise by slowly raising hips
off floor until you are in
straight line from chest 10 knees.
Do not arc the small of the
back in elevating hips. Hold.
lower TO floor and repeat five
times.
POSITION-Sit on floor with
one leg straight out in front,
other knee flexed and clasped TO
chest.
MOVEMENT-Keep that po-
sition and rock backward, one
knee still Rugged TO chest. the
other stretched straight up in
air at right angle with trunk.
IL you can make il, hold every
thing and come back up to a sit
ting position. This exercise
tones the muscles Of the entire
midsection.

Spinach Reasonably Priced
So Serve It Many Ways
By PRUDENCE PENNY

SPINACH IS quite plentiful
now and reasonably priced.
Therefore, we should take adj
vantage of this and serve il in
many ways.
Such green, leafy vegetables
are important in the diet be-
cause they are high in Vitamin
A. The days quota Of this vita
min is literally supplied for
children in l quart of whole
milk, an egg, green leafy and
yellow vegetables, butter and a
half teaspoonful of cod liver oil
or its equivalent in other fish
liver oils.

II YOU do not take the time
10 exercise, time will certainly
overtake you. You can count on
that! A small amount of exer-
else every day is absolutely
necessary to keep that middle
aged spread-asd the middle
aged feeling that goes with it
firmly in check.
or course you can't believe
what a set of calisthenics will
do for you until you give it a
try. And, very likely. the more
you hate to take ii up the more
you need to and the greater the
improvement you will see.
To get results and also 10
make exercise as painless as
possible, turn il into a habit.
Put il into about the same cate
cory as brushing your teeth.
Make 1t just one Of those things
you do.
Setiine.up Exercises
II you are business woman,
take your setting-up exercise in
the early morning TO wake your
self up. But If you are a home
maker you may find il easier
10 fit your 10 TO Is minutes
workout into the mid-morning
or the mid-afternoon.
The time of day doesn't really
matter so long as you choose a
time you can stick TO, day after
day.
The only thing 10 be said for
exercise early in the morning is
that you get IL over with before
too many other activities inter-
fere.

TOO GREAT A SACRIFICE

Lets win the war; is familiar phrase the lips
of every in America today Nothing should stand in
our way that would impediment in giving
all we have to win this war, for the continuation of
theory in this country depends entirely upon outcome
IN this conflict and that depends upon efforts
To win this means the full cooperation with the
governments program of ALL the peoples Sacrifices will
have to be made. Hardships will have to be endured
Many of the things that the opportunities of America
have made us accustomed to will have to be discarded.
Much blood will have to be shed Many of who able
to come thru will never look think the same These are
the prices WE AMERICANS WILL and MUST pay for
the continuity of democratic theory These sacrifices
VIII be made and IN no degree of reucancy for Amer
cans enjoy Boosting of freedom But the most essential
sacrifice that will have to be made to insure the freedom
OF America, seems too great to make and that for
to discard their estimation of superiority that they will
remit to every man the ndomitabe rights to his ad
montion subjected to his conscience pursue for his
existence in whatever line of ondeavor he chooses without
mythical tolerance.
This sacrifice MUST be made to insure victory over our
enemies. The quicker it is made the quicker will have
national unity, and when national unity is established
success will be Americas.
Well admit that this is great sacrifice for any race
to make who has for years established itself to the
of perfection in its estimation that its people superior
Well admit further that miracle that God could per
right basis without intolerance, is an idle thought

I RUTH TAYLOR SAYS:
IT'S UP TO THE WOMEN

This is Just for the women-but it is call to arms
Our men going out to fight whether they go
out the weapons of defense have work to do
oon the factories on the farms, freeing men for the
task of fighting.
There is one other job, however, which is peculiarly
our own and which do matter how tied down we
are-and no matter how little money time have
The most serious effect of war is ON the gen
Grafton fighting it but the generation following The

hardest themfor they have not had the back ground

penings Even when they do not show any immediate eff

well young minds permanently We all know how
childhood memories endure, Remember that Hters first
followers the warped children of the last And
those who faered and hampered and hindered in other
lands were children when the guns roared before.
1t is to the women to guard the minds of the chill
dren-not by shutting them away from truth but by
teaching and training them to clearly and without fear
The women must keep the light of faith burning They
must never be too occupied to scotch the first signs of
subversve propaganda They must teach those who look
to them for guidance the destructive influence of this
propaganda which advocates racial discrimination and
gious intolerance They must keep their children from,
dersandingto shun the evil because it is evil-not
because it is against them. They must use the war as
clarion call to noble ideals and high standards of neghbor
Illness.
But the three principal gifts they must give to the
children are peace love- and happiness at home This
qures rigid self dscipne-t is not dependent upon mat
eral things 1t takes so little to make child happy and

we may be anxious, we may be afraid, we may be sad
but we can keep that TO ourselves and shadow our
