SCHOOL HAS HOLIDAY
TO FIX THE PLUMBING

GALLON, O.-U.H-When the Sc
nior high school here was built
some years ago, the contractor
wanted to make certain no I'M
authorized persons would tamper
with the plumbing. He did, and
Gallon students recently had a
two-day holiday as the result.
But while the students were TAX
ing the double-holiday, workrnen
were using air hammers on 81
inch concreate wall, after digging
with shovels, hoes and trowels to
get at a broken pipe leading to the
school boiler.

Dorothy Dix Says

because as our sex is constituted we
are never satisfied with just bread
and meat, not even if it is hot rolls
and filet mignon. We still crave to
be fed on white hyacinths.
Another objection to your marry
ing this man is that he seems physi-
cally repugnant to you,. and that
feeling will grow instead of decrease
the oftener you have to look at him
across the breakfast table. And
still another reason for saying no
instead of yes is that evidently, even
now, you are ashamed of him, and
the one indispensable thing to a
wife's happiness is to be proud of
her husband.
1 get many letters from women
who ask the same question you do
whether they shall marry a man
for whom they have no affection,
but who can give them security
And the thing that always strikes
me between the eyes is that these
women never seem to realize what
a dishonest thing they are doing
when they take mans all and give
him nothing in return for it. For
there are very few men who would
marry women who told them that
they were marrying them just for
meal tickets

Dear Miss Dix: I am woman of
A. Divorced. Have two children.
A man of ST, who is fine in every
way, wants to marry me. He would
be a good provider and I am sure
would be very kind to my children.
But he is exceptionally homely and
is of foreign descent.
My problem is: Shall I accept
this man, who has all of these good
qualities, with the hope that will
some day care for him because Of
his goodness and kindness? Or will
I find myself unhappy, because he
may not be accepted by my friends?
AS things are now, work so hard
to support my children that I have
no life even with them. I am al
ways so tired at night 1 find myself
pushing them off to bed. and SO
often I realize that they started
to tell me things and I was too
weary to listen and told them to
save it for another time, which
never came.
This man offers me the opportu-
nifty to live a home life with my
children and I am sure he loves
me a great deal Shall I accept his
proposal, or not? N. H. e.
Answer-I don't think it pays a
woman to marry just for living,

Spring Headlines
By Evelyn Hayes

We're not talking about any visi-
BILE manifestations of the vernal
season. No, indeed; we wish we
were. Rather we're writing about
the new chapeaux calculated to
make any woman think she hears
robins and any man think of the
woman.
Hats are really hats this season
pretty notifications Of the big hats
that were introduced in the fall,
and the designers have outdone
themselves to see that they're as
pretty and sentimental as the sea-
son itself. The big fashion note
is the return of the sailor. This
beloved suit-hat which never quite
gets out of fashion comes riding
in this year with added impetus
on the flying streamers of the
bloomer girl whose wide-brimmed
boater is just one of many ver-
sions o. this springs sailor. Some
times worn forward, sometimes
back, many with straight stiff little
brims, often with streamers, sail
ors are back in sufficient vari-
ETY. to go round the clock. For
dressier moments there's John
Frederic's white Panama sailor with
its one massive rose spang in the
center-all swathed in yelling. To
go with soft-but not too dressy-
suits, there's Hattie Carnegie's leg
norm schoolgirl sailor with its fold
ed crown and heavy yelling. A
more moderate-priced version OF
the sailor that's both dramatic and
decorative is Milgrim's smart plaid
straw with fetching double ripple
brim, suggestion Of streamers in
the back.
The sophisticated ones will go
for the position sailor with its
rather high, severe crown and small
brim. Star of this galaxy is Hattie
Carnegie's George Sand topper
with big squared head-ftting crown
and neat cloche brim in navy blue
straw braid with smashing taffeta
bow in front. Judging from the
many versions of this chapeau that
will be on innumerable heads this
spring, that popular motion picture
about Chopin with the 10Th CEN
tury feminist should have beer
called "A Hat to Remember"
If you'd further fiaunt the 1885
look-youll choose one of the new

bonnet cloches. perhaps Florence
Reichmans high draped-f1tting
beauty of hibiscus rose felt
trimmed with black tassels; or our
fayorite - John Frederics' draped
with navy blue tulle, the 1eweled
motif sparkling in front.
Other versions of the "hattier"
hat have softly bloused crowns.
These are especially effective. when
combined with ripply brims as Sally
Victor does them. One Of the
prettiest poses a soft brim on a
bloused beret of biscuit colored
plated straw-an faced with dark
green satin-one of a special series
of chapeaux this milliner designed
to go with various coiffures.
Those who can't wear big-crowned
hats needn't worry, because this
springs varied scope of silhouettes
offers lots Of fiat sailors-wide and
narrow with single, double and
sometimes triple brims-as we'll as
gay little Watteau brims and sew
eral plateau ideas both straight and
forward
For those who want the last gasp
in fashion news there are two very
new-looking silhouettes both trans
lations of the Greek. One is Walter
F1orell's Psyche silhouette inter-
preted in flowers and ribbons with
tiny funnel crown. Secondhand
very wearable with chignon-a
series of "oracles" inspired by the
1880 Greek. revival in America.
These are small caps shaped close
to the head, worn far back and
curved upward with some thickness
placed above the chignon.
The bare" look in fashion has
also invaded the millinery feld-in
open-croWn hats that leave vents for
your upsWept curls to come tum-
bling through-this wonderful hot
weather fashion. While some de-
slgners omit the top to tighten the
look OF lofty crown, others cut out
the back of the brim to accommo-
date a chignon or long bob.
II flowers are any gauge of spring,
this season will be springier than
ever with every type of ribbon and
flower being used. The designers
have shown new and wondrous WAYS
with fowers-for "after-five" mo-
mentS, please. The hats are so pretty
this spring that your headgear
! should headline your whole costume.

foods away and spend wonderful
evening just relaxing. Incidentally,
we just never go out, for there is no
one to stay with the children If I
feel like it I sew, or write, or do
some painting 1--WE are painting the
whole house, walls, woodwork and
floors and my husband may build
some furniture. But only if it seems
like fun and not hard work. =.
Two more hints-I hardly ever
iron any more. The older children
wear cotton knit sweaters and cor
duroy overalls and corduroy or seer
sucker dresses that don't have to be
ironed, the baby's sweaters and skirts
don't need it. and they all look quite
presentable, too. OF course, 1 have
to iron some of my own things, but
we use paper napkins and woven
place mats except for very special
occasions. And when the going is
hard and the childrens' chatter is
driving you crazy, and you feel like
screaming, don't! Sing! Sing good
and LOUD and furiouSly, and you will
be amazed how it lets off steam and
makes you feel gay again and Incl
dentally amuses the children no end
I hope I haven't taken up too
much space in your wonderful RICH
and that my experience will prove
valuable to other young mothers
who don't feel SO young.

Your Psychologist
ADVERTISEMENT
By Dr.. w. H. Young

Nervous conditions are the bane Of
a physicians existence. Nerves
cannot be treated successfully with
medicine. Many nervous patients
are told they must overcome it
themselves. This is almost impos-
sible. as the patient is unaware
of the real cause of their trouble.
Subconscious fears and worries
are responsible for nervous condi-
tions. Without a correction of the
subconscious mental state, there is
no permanent relief. The usual
nervous symptoms finally produce
physical symptoms which convince
the person that some organic dis
ease has attacked.
Continuous or periodic indiges-
ton, backache, weakness and dizzy
spells, tight feeling around the
head, sleeplessness, numbness, and
feeling Of panic are symptoms Of
nervous weakness. When treated
in the proper manner these symp-
toms are eliminated and health and
strength restored.

give you the details.

Prehistoric Monsier Believed Found on
 River 10 Westward

CORDOVA, Alaska, June 28.- Residents of Katalla, 40 miles east of here, today were attempting to get some expert to identify the well pre- served remains of what may have been 8 prehistoric monster, discov- cred by a trapper on sandbar in the Glacier-fed Tsivat River
 Tom White, longtime resident of Katalla, said Paul Schneur, told him he found a portion of carcas 12 feet long and six feet high, pro- truding from the sandbar. The Tsivat originates five miles inland in glacier and flows into the Gulf of Alaska. 40 miles east of Cape Suck ling. Schneur said he believed the body was released from the big Der ing ice cap and floated down the river until it became imEedded in the sand.
 White said Schneur said two bones seven feet long and with joints every two and a half feet, stuck out from the body, which was covered with white-haired, tough half-inch hide. Bears had been gnawing it, he added.
 Efforts were to be made to have Don Miller, a U. s. Geologis5 cur rently n the Boring Lake area, 50 miles west of the Tsivat, investigate tke find.

WASHINGTON, June 28.-The In- tarior Department today recommen- ded immediate consolidation of all government agencies charged with administration of federal lands.
 Oscar L. Chapman, Assistant Sec retary of the Interior, told the special Senate committee Investigating petroleum reserves that the advan- tage of bringing together in one set of books record of all lands holdings ana having them available to that tie public and federal agencies themselves can learn who owns a particular piece of federally-held land" would outweigh administra- tive cost.
 He said there are now more than GO government agencies dealing with public lands.
 He also urged uniform leasing and administration of conservation mea sures for the protection of resour- ces cn public lands.
