"GAY CADETS"
By NANCY PEPPER
JANGLE-JINGLES

We've been reading through some
high-school newspapers and we're
that impressed with their poetic con-
tent. In case you'd like to know how
to rhyme in teentime-here are some
typical examples:
Now / lay me down to sleep
pray my hair the curl to keep
Should the curriers' open before 4
At least let me look like Veronica
Lake.
Roses are red
Violets are blue
Each time it rains
think of you.

Some folks think that f1eas are black,
But 1 don't think it's SO
Cuz Mary had little lamb
With feas as white as snow.
PEEVES OF THE WOLF PACK
Pancake Makeup-The boys don't
like it, chum, especially when you
plaster it over your face for school
and get kind of streaky as the day
wears on. Give 'em the natural
bloom of youth any time.
Curriers' i'm Your Hair You
thought they didn't know that your
hair was up in curriers' under your
snood; they're more oDservant than
you think and they contend that
curriers' should be a private affair.
Elaborate Hair DO's-Ask any boy
and he'll say that he likes hair to
look shining, live and free-not like
an engineering project or a nest OF
robins. The simpler the better is
the male opinion.

Many Old Estates Are Being Donated to Cities for
Conversion Into Parks and Community Centers

when our young men and women
return from service they will expect
to find their home town as lovely
as they envisioned it in the lonely
watches of the night. They will
expect beauty in their home town
and recreation and a chance to build
a satisfying life," said Howard Brau-
cher, president of the National Rec
reation association.
'Those of us who stay at home
have great part to play if these
expectations are to be fulfilled. We
should make our plans now for these
home towns, so that they will af-
ford the proper recreation and beau
ty to which our boys are looking for
ward. All over America are fine
old estates which are no longer in
use and in some cases are a finan-
cial burden to their present owners.
Some are historical landmarks, and
many can be converted into recrea-
ton centers where young and old
can study, play and develop. Ogle-

Neau Floor Treatments Are Suggested

The new floor show is the theme

The furniture here is Chinese mod

Huge, but not too insistent, white
roses are stenciled on the charcoal
stained floor of the living room, to
repeat the design of the chintz used
for furniture coverings, draperies,
and matching wall paper in the two
end bays. 'The main walls of the

Wheeling, is a notable example of
this sort of center"
From the first the project benefit
ed by the advice of the National
Recreation association and the agri-
cultural extension division of the
University of West Virginia. Colo
mel Oglebay had left his entire es-
tate known as Waddington Farm to
the city of Wheeling. The city
changed the name of the estate to
Oglebay Park.
One of the oldest buildings on the
estate, the Old Mansion, built in
1902, and now museum, has been
left practically intact since it was
enlarged by Colonel Oglebay. Other
old buildings have been remodeled
to serve their new purpose and the
$50 acres of land are left much as
they were with their fine old trees,
shrubs, gardens and roads. Bride
trails and paths have been laid out,
swimming pool has been added,
and there are accommodations for
vacationers.

reproduction.
On the other hand, fine rugs also
turn up in this audacious show. In
the library, for instance, the whole
design of the room is inspired by a
