are well var that many of the de-

this resolution should not be passed
without much discussion.
The Chairman( Harrigan): This is a
duplication of just what we have act
ed on. What this resolution calls for
is what we already have and, there
fore, to pass resolution to give us
authority to make investigation is not
necessary. AT any time a. member
feels an investigation is necessary a
motion could be made on the floor of

necessary.

HOLES IN GLASS? ETC.

(Fr0m D. G. F., W1Shtngt0n.)
I am glad to become q con-
tributor as well as a reader of
RICH. In answer to several re-
quests. I offer the following method
of drilling holes through glass.
The method is also suitable for
clay. porcelain, or tile:
First build a little dam of candle
wax around the spot where the
hole is to be drilled. If the hole
is on the side Of q bottle. be sure
that it Is everywhere higher than
the highest point Of the glass
inside it. Inside the dam place q
small amount of grinding COM
pound. This may be coarse au-
tomobile valve grinding compound
such as is sold in automobile
accessory stores, or a thin paste
of carborundum powder (medium
to fine) and water.
The drill consists of q short
length Of brass or steel tubing the
diameter of the desired hole. This
is notched with a file on the
business end so that six to eight
grooves are available to pick up
the grinding compound. This tool
is turned about its axis by means
OF a drill press lowest speed) or
a hand drill (eegbeater type
preferred), or If one has a great
deal Of patience. by hand. The
serrated end Is pressed against the
glass using light to moderate pres
sure. and is lifted frequently to
allow fresh compound to flow into
the groove being cut. Too heavy
a pressure may cause cracks to
start. as most glass bottles are not
thoroughly annealed to remove
strains in the glass.
The grinding compound should
be rinsed out and replaced ut
least twice while drilling through
an ordinary bottle. Care should
be taken to prevent accidental
scratching by stray grains of
compound. and the rinsing should
not be done in an enamel sink
lest it be scratched.
For tiny holes, for which tubing
may not be available, it may be
possible to use solid rod, grooyed
across the end.

Few children escape accidents
or illness and the ministrations
they demand. They win, some-
time or other. need the physician.
the dentist. the nurse. 50 we
should prepare them for the ex-
periences they will meet.
The dentist is certain to be
needed. The first teeth must be
carefully tended because on their
good health the soundness OF the
permanent ones must depend. II
cavities appear they must be
filed. When some of them refuse
to be shed at the proper time the
dentist must remove them.
Prepare the children against
that day. Play dentist with them
as you clean their teeth each day.
Take them along when you go
to the dentist. so they become
acquainted with him and the Of
fee. The unfamiliar thing fright
ems a child. He accepts the fam
iliar scene, the familiar person
more philosophically.
Train the child to look on the
physician as his friend, the friend
who will come to his help when
he gets into trouble. Show him
how the doctor will look at his
eyes, his throat and how he will
listen to his chest to hear his
lungs working and his heart beat
ing. Let him become acquainted
with the physician if that is at
all possible.
Unless a child has seen a nurse
in her uniform he is likely to be
afraid of her, 50 he should be
made familiar with her appear
Iance and know what she stands
for in relation to him. Pictures
will help, and stories, too. The
idea is that familiarity with peo-
pie and places and the rouSines
that he will meet when ne is
i'll, if he is i'll or has an accident,
will enable him to accept them
with little fear or resistance.
The doctors have their full
share in this situation. Any doc
tor who Is likely to treat children
needs to prepare himself for the
task, He will accept the chill
dren's fear and plan to allay 1t.
He will school himself to meet
them with friendly. helpful atti-
tudes. He will make them well

Of March and Marriage

the bride over the head with It!
Medieval Germans threw a shoe
to the wedding guests and the ono
to catch it was supposedly the
next to marry. ~
On the Isle of Man a pinch Of
salt in the pocket Of bride and
groom was considered surety Of
good luck. In ancient Sweden no

to court a maid. Rather, he
would wait until she was on her
way to marry another, weaker.

marriage ceremonies were In
variably held at night, this was an
absurdly simple feat and a gen.
orally practiced one.
At weddings in Japan, red flags

waved to frighten off evil infiu-
ences. In Malay, a bridegroom
has to live with his mother-in-
law for two years. And the stand
ard price for all brides in Zulu
land is 20 cows.
In 1895 the British Parliament
passed law taxing all bachelors
and childless widowers. But it
also taxed people for marrying
and for having children! At any
rate, no one could cry favoritism!
The custom of an engagement
ring can be traced back to the
Bible. In Genesis, to be specific:
And Pharoah took of his ring
|. and put it upon Joseph's
hand" The ancient Greeks began
the custom of putting wedding
rings on third fingers because
they thought a vein of pure love
went from there directly to the
heart. Speaking of rings, 80 per
cent of all engagement rings today
are bought on the installment

But why so few people like to
get married in March just isn't
in the records. If you want to
be different" though, this is the
time. Just plan your wedding
march for March.

/ Every one knows most girls like
to get married in June-here o.
in India or Indiana. Or, say sta.
tistics, as second choice, in Sep
tember. But pity March. The
fewest number Of all marry this
month.
Which means that not only dc
ministers find themselves low on
income. but think Of the laggard
market for wedding rings and
flowers and silverware and dresses
and caterers and 50 many things!
For marriage, today, is big
business. It's always been q funny
business - depending on which
matrimonial customs you do or do
not follow.
For instance-an old Albanian
custom DEGREES q present on re-
turn from journey. not for your
bride, but for the wife of her
eldest brother. In ancient Fire,
the groom gave the bride a brace
let Of human hair. Greeks once
poured flour and sweetmeats over
the newly wed. In early England
they used wheat. In India as here,
they used rice. but the basic ges-
ture was always world symbolic
of a wish for an abundance Of
good things.
The kiss, or preliminary step
to marriage, developed Cor did you
think it was always known?)
where would you think? In La
Belle France, Of course. The we'd
ding veil is a wispy reminder of
the days when the bride was
shrouded from head to toe during
the ceremony. And the marriage
ceremony itself wasn't made OBJ
ligatory, in a religious sense, until
by decree of the Council of Trent
in 1863 and, legally 50. by the
French constitution of September,
It'll.
The wedding cake, a nice Gus
tom, too. appeared first in ancient
Rome. It was then a small af-
fair made of salted meal and, inz
stead of being eaten or slept on,
was broken over the brides head.
A French chef in London made
the first large mound from which
evolved our present white layered
works of culinary art.
That business with the old shoes
dates back to the days of the
Saxons. 1t was then the thing
for the father to hand a shoe to
the groom, who, in turn. hung it
