QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
 Baby Fond of Eggs

Daughter. aged two years, very active. healthy, will eat at least four eggs for breakfast if let her have them. Some people say this will cause asthma and others say it will ruin her stomach. A (F. E.l Answer-Nonsense. four eggs for breakfast will do no harm, supply nutriment equivalent to pint of milk.
 Asinine-One s
 Of all the assinine (two S's) re. marks ever heard yours about dogs and cats giving children worms Why would the Creator put worms in the saliva of mans best friend.
 (Reader). Answer-I repeat, any one, child or adult, should always carefully wash the hands after betting or playing with cat or dog, lest one in- gest the microscopic eggs of warns from the animals saliva on the hands. One should do this imme- diately-before the hand uncon- sciously goes to mouth. Children frequently get worms in this way.

The Day of Invasion has everyone more or less jittery. All are anxious for it, yet apprehensive It was announced this week that one day of horse racing will be cancelled when it arrives. It has been a long time coming, and the effect on nerves is not too good. A request has been made to advertisers that they play it easy and do not feature it too big.

Hold-the-Line Note

No matter how your own particular griefS make you feel toward the bedeviled Office of Price Administration, you'll have to okay its newest plans: to clamp down on prices charged in barber shops and beauty parlors. Milady'S strato- Spheric hairdo has needed ceiling for long, long months, and as for Bowles- model haircut, why say

Mistakes and mis-
 calculations made by AMG in Italy will not be re- p peated in the counter : invasion
 of northern Eur ope, say Assistant secretary of War John J. McC cCloy and Maj. Gen. John H. Hilldring, chief of the Civil Affairs Division of the War Depart
 n1ent's special staff.

 Also, it has made some people wonder why the business of join- ing utility companies doesn't work both ways. In other words, when Prentiss Brown steps out of the Government to head Detroit Edi- son, why should Wendell Willkie be criticized for stepping out of Commonwealth ana Southern to run for President?
 Here is a list of former office holders under Roosevelt who have stepped into lush utility jobs:
 William Hickey, former chief of the registration division of the Securities and Exchange Commis- sion, now president of the power full United Corporation, backed by J. P. Morgan.
 John Burns, former counsel of the SEC, now 8 director of United Corporation.
 William Yeager, former Recon struction Fiance Corporation of- ficial, now president of Interna- tional Utilities, a director of Dom- inion Gas and Electric company, and vice president of General Wa ter, Gas and Electric company.
 George Mathews, former com- missioner of the SEC, now vice president of the Northern States Power Go.
 NOTE: Leo Crowley became head of Federal Deposit Insur- ance, and now also as Foreign Economic Administrator.
 LADIES OF CONGRESS
 No matter what happens next November-whether FDR is re- elected or whether the House of Representatives goes GOP-it looks as if a lot more ladies would grace the next Congress. It also looks as if the Democrats would treble their number of Congress women.
 Most of the female glamOr in the House today is furnished by Republicans. As against the sole woman Democrat, hard working Mrs. Mary Norton of New Jersey. there are five Re- pubs-scintillating Clare Luce of Connectiut, reliable Mrs. Edith NOurse Rogers of Massachusetts, genial Miss Jessie Sumner of Illinois, fastidious Margaret Chase Smith of Maine, and Winifred c. Stanley of New York, who will not stand for re- election because her district has been redistricted.
 Probable additions to the ladies of Congress will be two named Mrs. Douglas, both Democrats.
 Mrs. Douglas No. is Mrs. Doug las, wife of the movie actor who has now fought in two wars. She become famous on the stage as Helen Gahagan and, campaigning under that name, she won the Democratic nomination in Cali fornia,s 14th district last week. Mrs. Douglas No. 2'is Mrs. Paul Douglas, wife of the well-known professor at the University of Chicago and daughter of Chi cago's famous sculptor, the late Lorado Taft.
 Mrs. Paul Douglas, a very alert lady, will run against the Chicago Tribune's candidate, Representative Stephen A. Day, who in 1883 sent a telegram to Hitler c0ngratuIating him on his rise to power. She is weII- known in Illinois and has a good chance to win. Miss Gahagan is almost a sure bet in Cali. fOFnia.
 END OF DIES COMMITTEE
 The CLOS score against the Dies Committee in recent pri- maries has several congressman quaking in their boots. Reaction ary moguls who thumbed their noses at CIO are now going home to cultivate local CIO leaders.
 At first, when Joe Starnes. ranking majority member of the Dies Committee, was defeated in the Alabama primaries. Congress

AS A MATTER OF FACT

Massachusetts has had an abundance of forest fires this spring. AS matter of fact they were still raging pretty much early this week. Forest and brush fires in our own vicinity have been pretty numerous. Heavy rain Monday night will have had dampening spread, no doubt, on the fires in the general New England area, unless the showers were merely local
