George bent over and kissed her
cheek. Although they had been
married nineteen years, one of the
things that made the time seem
much shorter was Georges kisses.
But today, his kiss was perfume

ened.
What's wrong?"

She jumped up. But he was

When she opened the bedroom
door, she realized the house was
silent, too silent. The radio was
off. There was no sound of Shakes
peare's protesting squeals or LIS
shrieks from the kitchen. There
weren't even any voices from the
living room. And then. as she
went down the stairs, she heard
her husband say:
I'm SURE we can settle this.
That's why I've asked you to
come here. After all, she is only a
fifteen-year-old girl"
Abby thought Liz. Her stom-
ach tipped. Dear God, she thought.
Liz. So sure of herself. Forgive me,
Liz. You didn't desert me. l de-

much as you did in the days when

Once more the living room was
filled with closely huddled groups,
playing records, drinking milk,
muttering about life. Once more,
Liz monopolized the telephone.
Once more, the bathroom was
filled with girls washing hair,
shipping off little bits for new
arrangements with Abby's best
manicure scissors. Once more,
LIS overnight bag was in per-
petual motion.
WHEN Liz and Sylvia met, they
nodded vaguely and hastily went
their separate ways. Sylvia never
joined the record-playing groups.
But once in a while, boy would
come out to the kitchen and Abby
would corral him and snare Sylvia
into brief conversation. Once,
Mike called at the house to find
Liz gone, and Abby pushed Sylvia
off to the movies with him. And
once, when little George came
home Unexpectedly with two
freshman pledges, Abby sacrificed
the pie she had made for dinner to
keep them in the living room talk

told her husband on Saturday

They were in their bedroom.
Big George had retired there with
sheaf of examination papers and
two new mysteries. Downstairs,
little George had the football game
on the radio. In the kitchen,
recalcitrant Liz was washing an
even more recalcitrant Shakes
peare in the laundry tub. For once,
there were no guests. Even Sylvia,
who had been over in the morning,
had apologized that her mother
was taking the afternoon off and
wanted her.
George put down the mystery
story and focused on Abby. She
was wearing pedal-pushers and a
T-stirt, anticipating a cleanup
job in the kitchen when Liz had
finished.
Hadn't you better put on a
dress?"
ABBY sat down on the bed
abruptly. For why? You aren't

one of the adrenal hormones may
be the long-awaited cure for GER
tain types of arthritis.
A new source of vitamin B 2, or.
riboflavin, was reported to the So
ciety by chemists of the Agricul-

is essential to growth. 1t ordinarily
is found in milk, eggs and green
leaves. Small amounts now are
placed in most bread f1ours and

The new source, said DR.. P. F.
Pfeifer, Is a yeast-like organism

commercial quantities by fermen-

essential vitamin, DR.. Pfeifer said,
can be produced for about one

ATLANTIC CITY, Sept. o.
Both arthritis and arteriosclerosis
may be the result of prolonged
vitamin deficiencies, DR.. Agnes
Fay Morgan of the University Of
California told the American
Chemical Society meeting here
today.
She reported experiments show
ing that lack of the vitamins
riboflavin and pantothenic acid has
the same effect on the body as
exposure to high attitudes. When
the body is subject to severe
stresses, she said, the cortex of
the adrenal glands produce Ger
tain chemical substances. known
as hormones, in unusual amounts
and as a result starches and sugar
are rapidly converted into energy
to meet the increased require
ments. But, she said. vitamin de-
ficient animals are unable to step
up the manufacture of these vital
hormones and hence do not adjust
themselves to the increased de-
mands.
Some persons, she pointed out
may inherit an abnormally. high
requirement of vitamins which
would not be supplied by ordinary
diets.
DR.. Morgan, who was the first
to report that lack of pantothenic
acid caused graying of the hair,
said that this vitamin has an
important effect on the adrenal
glands and in extreme cases of
pantothenic acid deficiency ami
mails die because the adrenals stop
functioning.

Mrs. ROOsevelt's New Memoirs Tell
Of Pearl Harbor Day At White House

The day that will live in infamy,
as President Roosevelt called it,
began quietly at the White House,
but in an atmosphere of tension
which concentrated in one home
all the worries felt in homes
throughout the United States. But
when the first shock of the news
was over, the President and his
family felt more serene than those
who had borne the burdens of our
pre-war policy had been able to
feel for a long time, Mrs. Roose-
welt reveals in the fifth INSTALL
ment of her memoirs, 81 Remem-
Der" which appear in the October
issue of McCalls Magazine.
pearl Harbor Day began

pecting quite large party for
luncheon, and was disappointed
but not surprised when Franklin
sent word short time before
lunch that he did not see how he
could possibly join us.
Harry Hopkins ate with Frank
lin in the study that day, and
there were 81 of us at lunch. By
the time lunch was over news had
come of the attack on Pearl Har-
Dor. The information was so stun
ming that there was complete
quiet, and then we took up our
next occupation in kind of vac
uum.
"a few minutes after three
o'clock the Secretaries of>War and
Navy, Admiral BeardalI, my hus-
bands Naval aide, Secretaries
Mcintyre and Early and Grace
Tully were all in Franklin's study
on the second floor of the White
House. They were soon joined by
General Marshall and the Secre-
tary of State. Later, when we did
have chance to talk, l thought
that in spite of anxiety Franklin
was in a way more serene than
he had appeared in a long time.

finally that the die was cast"
After this, the First Lady joined
her husband in the exhausting
round of official work, flying cross
country with Mayor LaGuardia
to check afraid precautions on
the West Coast, and organizing
civilian defense throughout the
nation. Underneath their preoccu-
patton, however, the Roosevelts
felt just like any other parents

October II, 1919
Gentlemen:
On looking over some old papers
| find copy of your issue of Jan
uary 80, 1908, containing an obitu-
airy of William Brown of j., writ
ten by F. w. Brown, and l would
like to know if there are any des-
cendants of F. w. Brown, or other
family connection.
About that time (19OS) 1 had
some correspondence with F. w.
Brown who gave me some valuable
family history, which has been lost.
F. w. Brown and myself had the
same ancestor about five genera
tons back. Ny branch of the fami-
ly first went to Virginia and later
to South Carolina, about 1889. The
"e" was added to the spelling of
Brown about that time.
l hope to establish some con-
nection with the Maryland Browns
to get family history that I lost.
Very truly,
G. P. Browne

Are All Alliances Bad?

THIS does not mean that no al.
l lance is good, or that no treaty
can be relied on, or that the United
Nations (for instance) is bound to
collapse. What Isaiah is driving at
is this: God has a Purpose TO work
out in this world, and the name OF
it is Justice, Righteousness, Peace,
Love.
Any nation or combination Of
nations, any pact or agreement
or program, that goes against
Gods purpose is going against
the grain Of things and Is bound
to fall. Pure power politics"
always looks impressive; but
the question Is: What Is the
power going 10 be used for?
II it is really for the benefit Of
mankind, God will bless it; but
IL it is selfish and unjust and
against the peace Of the world, it
will fail, because the God OF Justice
has set his face against il.

in-chief of McCall's.
In addition to describing her
feelings as she watched her sons
and friends go off to the fighting

once told her after she had served
him lunch at her apartment that

what he had had to eat, adding

Cowardly King Bold Prophet

INTO ISAIAH'S little country of
4 Judah an invading army was
marching. and the hearts Of king
and people trembled like leaves
in the wind" Little Judah was
being invaded by a combination Of
two ambitious powers, Syria and
Israel, either one larger and strong
er than Judah. Isaiah had to go out
and try to calm the mind Of the
King. 1t was of no use; it was clear
that King Ahaz did not believe the
prophet. But Isaiah was right
nevertheless.
The foreign army that looked
so big would not win the war.
The alliance that looked so
frightening did not last. 1t could
not last, because God was
against 1t. Military men and
others too find such things hard
to believe.
Is not God con the side of the
largest battalions"? Is not cit
thar fustest with the mostest men"
the one and only recipe for victory?
Nevertheless, the prophet was
right. In fact, whenever a prophet
raised banner inscribed, Trust in
God, it was not likely to be at
time when things were going
smoothly in the world. That banner
most often appeared in times Of
trouble. of darkness and dismay,
of wars and invasions.

craft Advisory
Service, which answers thousands
of queries from parents every year,
has found this to be form of dis
cipline quite commonly used by
mothers. And the discovery that it
is almost always effective, may
tempt you to use it more and more
often. -&sn
But, the next time the need arises
for disciplining Sis or Junior, try
to resist the temptation to exact
obedience in this way. 1t will not
be hard to do if you remember that
children reared in families where
the fathers word is law, may grow
up to be either extremely dependent
or else resentful of any authority
) When you meet grownup who
seems unable to make decisions for
himself, or who lacks self-confidence
and initiative, you will quite often
discover that he comes from a
family in which the father was or
was made to appear - domineer-
ing individual and a strict disciple
marian.
: Friends and business associates of
this type of individual may refer
to him as "mamby-pamby" or
"wishy-washy". They will lack faith
in his ability and ignore his timidly-
expressed opinions. Now and then,
they will be heard to say in a puz-
zled manner: II wonder what's
wrong with John! Why, he's nothing
at all like his father!"
Such persons may not realize it,
but they are seeing what happens
when one personality is crushed I'M
der the weight of another.

Leagues Don't Always Last

The situation had different
angle, later on. The Syria-Israel
invasion collapsed, just as Isaiah
said it would. But still the little
nations jockeyed and unanswered.
1t looked like photographic be-
tween Assyria and Egypt, and
every nation wanted to be on the
winning side. So it was a great
time of treaty-makings, Of pacts
and agreements and alliances.
Isaiah changed the form of his
message to suit the changing times,
but the core Of it was still the same.
To King Ahaz he had said: Don't
be afraid of hostile alliances; trust
in God. To King Hezekiah and
others he said, in effect: Don't put
all your hope in alliances; trust in
God. Egypt will fail you, any al
lance you form will melt away in
time.
But God will not melt away.
You can depend on him. Now
In our time the situation Is
strikingly like what II was in
Isaiah's day. People today are
tempted to put their trust in
what Is big and imposing. Big
nations, big ornaments, big
armies, big alliances.
Men once put their trust in the
League of Nations, and it died (of
cowardice and dishonesty. among
other things). Millions put their
trust in the Axis, and for awhile it
looked as If the Axis powers would
overspread the earth. But thef Axis
vanished under the blows of the
Allies.
