multitudes Of young officers we see
around washington. > -
LET them install q system which
will make use Of the talent which
is offered when men of military ex-
perience come to Washington to
offer their services and are given
the old well-known walking treat
ment' until they leave in disgust.
Let the Office Of Adjutant General
go over their list Of pigeon -holed
applications and give these men a
chance. Let them give the young
men who completed three years Of
instruction at the c. M. T. c. camps
a chance to take an examination
for second neutenants.
There are thousands of these
men, who in all fairness to them
selves and to the Nation, should be
given an opportunity at these COM
missions before those who have had
no previous military experience.
House Argues Ban Wednesday.
The proposal to ban commissions
for civilians without military expert
ence is slated to come up in the
House Wednesday as Faddis-spon-
sored amendment to bill doubling
the s21 pay of buck" privates and
increasing pay of all others in the
armed services up through second
lieutenants and corresponding
grades.
One member of the Senate Mill
tary Affairs Committee who asked
not to be quoted by name said War
Department officials had expressed
the opinion that adoption of the
Faddis amendment would hamper
rapid expansion of the Army by
making it impossible to release
trained officers for field duty and
replace them in administrative posts
with qualified civilians.
This Senator said he was con-
vinced that instances of favoritism
were exceptional, adding there was
no doubt that the Army needed al
of the officers it could get as quickly
as it could get them.
Aside from the Faddis proposal
little controversy is expected in the
House over the pay increase bill
Trouble was expected, however, fol
two other important military meas.
ures: One to establish women.
branches of the Army, Navy ano
Marines and the other to provide
family allowance payments for de-
pendents of drafted men.
The Senate Military Affairs Com.
mittee asked Chairman Walsh o.
the Senate Naval Affairs Commit.
tee to present his committees view
at a closed session today on the So
called women's army bill. Senate
Walsh last week wrote the Navy De
partment demanding revision of .
similar Navy bill to preclude th'
possibility that women might b.
called on for combat duty.
Plan Similar to Houses Seen.
Senators Hill, Democrat, of Ala
bama and Chandler, Democrat, o
Kentucky predicted the COMMITTEE
eventually would report out meas
ure similar to bill which pre-
viously passed the House, settin,
up a women's army auxiliary will

If YOU have a naturally pleasant voice and if you talk clearly ard softly, you're way out there with charm. Those are special assets in a world where too many women talk like top sergeants.
 There's a very simple, easy way to improve your voice and dic- ton, too. Just read aloud for ten minutes every day.
 Of course you won't get lar by sitting in corner far from the dictionary and just reading any old way. Read slowly. distinctly. And don't skim over the unfam- iliar word with vague mental not. of hard word'', and go on. Look it up in your dictionary. Get the pronunciation accurately, and get the meaning too. It's being half familiar with word, half sure of it, that leads to the really embarrassing misuse of it.
 ADOPT NEW WORDS
 INTO YOUR SPEECH
 When you have read the deflni' tion and have it, try to use th' word in a sentence or so. Yol might even make note of it on : little pad. Now and then, before beginning your daily reading ses' sion, review the words on tht pad. See how many of them vol can greet as a friend.

FORMALDEHYDE AS A HOMT
 REMEDY


 REMEDY
 Formaldehyde is product of the oxidation of wood alcohol (methy) alcohol.) It comes in the form of a solution in water, called Liquor Formaldehydi, Solution of Formal dehyde, Formalin, Formol, or. in French, Formique. This solution contains not less than 37 per cent of formaldehyde. It should be clear, nearly colorless, and give of 8 pun- gent odor. The vapor is very irri- tating to nose and eyes and throat. The solution mixes with water or with grain alcohol.
 Formaldehyde vapor Is a germi- cidal. disinfactant, and is still used by some old time health officers for "fumigating" apartments after con- tagious or infectious disease. Of course ordinary soap and water housekeeping and an airing and summing eff there is sunlight avail able) for day or two, makes the apartment or room as safe as a room can be for the next occupant no matter what disease the last oc- cupant had.
 Formaldehyde is a valuable de- odorant, whether in liquid or vapor form. It does not harm colors or textiles, in fact it helps to preserve cloth, leather, etc.
 Spraying 8 few drops of a Solu- ton of one part of Formalin (37%) with four or five parts of water in the insolves of shoes, and letting the shoes stand drying, if possible out of doors and in the sun, for a day before wearing them again. is an ex- cellent way to control excessive ol malodorous sweating of the feet = one such application week will usually suffice. This may be a val uable procedure for preventing chil. plains or frostbite in winter-damp. ness of the stockings and shoe lin ing from excessive sweating is predispcsing factor of freezing.
 An ointment made of teaspoon ful of standard Formaldehyde So' lution (37Tc) and two tablespoonful of petrolatum (petroleum jelly) vel mixed cold, ard kept in a tightl. closed contairer, is good remed. to apply to the palms to control ex cessive sweating of the hands.

And don't forget that sometimes the most important part of the sentence is the period = I near the pause that prevents rattling on. Of course, don't go to the other extreme. The speaker who dawdles between thoughts can be- just as irritating as the one who never paragraphs, much less makes sentences.
 Open your mouth and let the words out; don't mutter belaino half-cpen lips. Best speech is soft but rich and warm in tone, cleal but not clipped. When you're talk ing in a room full of people, try to remember to talk under in- stead of above the general con versation. The low, clear ton' goes further than the strident ont and goes pleasantly.

Acouaintance had impression made immediately after last extrac- ton. She tainted when the dentist put the plate in, also when he mace the impression. CW. Fo
 Answer-The impression should be taken before extraction, the plate or other denture made, then the ex- traction done and the denture im- mediately installed before patient leaves the office. This is immeci- ate denture service which only the more progressive dentists as yet are technically qualified to render Usually the plate or denture re- quires some adjustments later, but in actual practice this modern den- tai service is boon to people who are not content to go toothIess for weeks or months.
