The nuns remained here for
three months. moving to their
permanent monastery 3 miles
north of Port Tobacco on Oc-
tober Is. According to one au-
thority this was "the first convent
of religious women in the United
States" The statement is true as
regards the United States of 1890,
but it must be noted that there
was convent of Ursuline nuns in
the French territory of Louisiana
as early in 1927.
Mother Bernardina served as
Prioress until her death in 1900.
She was succeeded by Mother
Glare Joseph. who held the Office

Many of you write to me about
lines on the neck. This certainly
is one of the problems most
women who are past very youth
full days have. There are many
factors which lead to these lines.
First, as one grows older the
fatty deposit between the skin and
the muscles becomes thinner. the
general tone is less firm and a
certain amount of sag develops.
Also if you are very fat you will
have deep creases just as baby
has rolls on its neck. This creases
the skin so that the lines may
remain after a loss of weight.
However. the biggest factor of
all is posture. If you indulge in
poor posture at an earlier period
in your life, when you were a
child or young girl, you may
have developed abnormal lines.
Unless you make a truly earnest
and intelligent effort to minimize
these at midlife, of course they
will continue to deepen.
If you allow your neck to curve
at the back you will develop
creases on the back of your neck.
If you habitually. carry your head
with your chin ducked, the lines
around the front of your neck
will become more noticeable. The
important thing is to keep the
spine stretched through the region
of the neck, with your chin held
parallel to the floor. Get the feel
ing of pushing toward the ceiling
with the top of your head. You
will then feel the stretch through
the back neck area.
When We see how women walk
along with their heads down. sit
in q car with the neck collapsed,
read in bed with pillows under
their heads, pushing the chin into
the neck and sleep with pillows

ChiId's S
Outbursts
By AnqeIo Potri

There comes a time when the
sweet little child turns into an
angry, rebellious, spiteful crea-
ture who stamps a foot and
shouts, mo, I won't. I hate you"
Don't faint away. Nothing has
happened. This is still the sweet
child of your heart. He is tired,
that's all. He has been working
beyond his limit. fatigue has set
in and poisoned his blood stream.
Give him bath, put him to bed
to rest, all the while thinking.
poor little mite. He'll be all
right in the morning"
Whatever you may feel of as
tonishment and anger and hurt
wipe it from your mind. Know
that this means nothing but the
expression of fatigue. Don't
shout, weep or indicate anything
but sorrow, still and deep. That
will be more effectual than any
demonstration of anger.
Little children work hard, very
hard, all day to fulfill their quota
of growth. They have so much
to learn, so many movements to
master, so many accomplishments
to acquire in so short a time.
Imagine learning to talk, most
complicated process; learning to
walk, a most strenuous under
taking; learning to play, making
use of the hands and the whole
muscular system, all in three
years. Small wonder the wee
body, the untried nerves and
muscles grow weary in the effort.
Young children are likely to go
beyond the limits of endurance
so that their nerves fail to regis
ter fatigue in time to stop them
for rest The accumulated fati-
que is too much to bear and the
child explodes. He has to find
relief and that is the only way his
primitive being permits.
OF course, he must be trained
to know better and to do better.
Scolding and punishment will
never accomplish that. Wait until
he is clothed in his right mind
and then tell him that he lost
control of himself yesterday be-
cause he was too tired. Today,
therefore, you will call him in
ahead of time so he can be
washed and rested in time for
father to come home. And do
just that.
mo" is one of the first words
very young children learn to say.
They are not the tired ones. They
are saying no because they are
beginning to feel their own will
moving within them. When a
child says no, wait. appear not
to notice. then repeat the original
statement, calmly. with a note of
assurance, and see what happens.
Usually he responds properly.
Sometimes saying, Very well.
You needn't" and proceeding
with every evidence of going
along without him, serves the
end. Just don't make a scene
about it. The phase soon passes
if no great notice is taken of it..
But look out for the overworked,
oVertired child.

tured robbers and other criminals.
A little city in Italy, Pistoia, may
have given its name to the pistol,
but there is doubt about this point.
An Italian named Vitelli, a resident
of Pistoia, is believed to have in
vented it about half a century after
the first voyage of Columbus across
the Atlantic.
The first pistols in italy had
handles which were almost at right
angles to the barrels. In Japan a
pistol was invented at about the
same time, but the handle of it was
almost in line with the barrel.
Other countries soon adopted the
pistol. A German pistol of the
early period had handle with only
a slight slant.
AS time passed, many different
styles of these hand weapons ap-
peared. Some of them had two
barrels, side by side. Others had
one barrel directly above another.
For long time the hammer of a
pistol was made to strike flint, pro-

Mrs. A. w.
A. In the rice-growing States,
the only term used is "rice fields.
But in the Far East, English-speak-
ing persons use the term "rice
paddy" However, it is erroneous
and redundant, for paddy does not
mean field" 1t means "rice,'
especially rice in the husk, whether
uncut or harvested. Paddy is from
the Malay padi. rice
@. Why do we speak of eating
humble pie"?-E. B.
A. The original expression was
"eat humble pie" A humble pie
was one made of the numbleS of
deer or other animal, i.e., such
entrails as the heart, liver, etc
When a deer, for example, was
killed for the table, the choice meat
was served to the master and his
family. The numbles were eaten
by the servants and other menials
humble pie became umble pie.

The other day an 11-year-old boy
said to me:
when I get big, I am going tc
get a permit to carry a pistol. Then
I will be ready to fight any gangstel
or robber who may attack me-"
To that I replied:
Il hardly think it would be wise
for you to carry pistol. We are
living in an age when that sort OF
thing should be left behind. There
still are some robbers and gang
sters, but we have few of them
compared to our population.
There was a time when many
men used to keep loaded pistols
under their pillows at night. Their
idea was to be ready for any rob-
ber who got into the house. The
way it worked out, however, was
that many persons shot themselves,
or other members of the family, by
accident. That old custom has
been given up"
Pistols probably have caused more
sorrow in the world than good.
Laws have been made to keep them
out of the hands of gangsters, but
this has proved to be a hard task.
