A great deal of modern jewelry is function- al. This makes it as much of a ne- cessity as anything else that per- forms a necessary duty. Clips fasten dress necks and hold the decolletage in place. Rings tell a story--and an in- quiring eye saves a faux pas for the gentleman who wonders whether she is married or engaged. I'm all for husband wearing wedding rings, too; it would save some girls a lot of trouble. Brooches have always had a definite place in a woman's dress scheme, Attention Please Necklaces and bracelets call at- tention to slender throats and wrists, and earrings emphasize the color of the lips and the brilliance of the eye. Personal adornment is as old as man, 1 say man advisedly for men first wore jewels and in primitive times the handsome headgear, beautiful animal skins, necklaces, rings, ear and nose rings, to say nothing of finger and "toe rings, were men's pride and joy and the ladies were decked out like the hen pheasant or the pea hen. a little on the drab side. However, in the race development, gradually the female of the species has proven without a doubt that she is more deadly than the male. I don't exactly mean poisonous, you know, but she knew her stuff and did it. Now gentlemen have been shorn of their beautiful garments. their flowing locks, their handsome neck- laces, their flowered walstcoats, lace ruffles and elegant shoe buck- les--and all of their hard earned sheckles go to decorate the females who rule them. To women jewels mean a variety of things. but most of all, I think pride of possession. Rings, bracelets, earrings, neck- laces and clips all matching, this is the newest jewel fashion Sm women have assembled several of these ensembles and find that sets of jewels look much more Important than mixtures. Jewels are negotiable collateral as well as highly ornamental, and these days we note with increasing frequency the number of refugees who come to our shores bringing with them a fortune in a small black jewel case. Jewel Always Fashionable Jewels can be reset as fashions change without loss of value and the jewel itself is always in fash- ion. It knows no limitations of age time or place. Women who have money collect Jewels. Women who have jewels wear them and collect admirers. It isn't a bad time to consider jewels not as luxuries but as invest- ments.

WATER QUILTS SLEEPING AID New York, Nov. 5 (CP)--Now that winter is arriving, word of a 'hot- weather" water quilt comes along. You sleep on top instead of under it. Tap water, diffusing slowly be- tween its walls, produces the cool- ing effect, When the body heats it above the comfort level, valves con- trolled by a thermostat let addi- tional cold water in and let the warm water out. An official of the firm manufact- uring the pad reports it has proven satisfactory at 104 degrees with hu- midity at 80. It is necessary only to maintain a skin temperature of about 90 to 92 degrees to be comfortable, he has found. Persons lose sleep above that point, body temperature warming bed clothing until it causes perspir- ing. Another advantage -- you don't have to roll over to find a cool place in the sheets. Writes Letters To Lone Troops London, Nov. 5 (CP)--Next time you complain about having to write a long overdue letter, consider Mrs:- Alex Townsend of Brighton, who as "Auntie," writes 50 letters weekly to lonely soldiers, sailors and airmen in all parts of the Empire. They aren't one-page letters. They aver- age 10 sheets of good man-sized stationery. "This all started," explained Auntie, "when my son joined up and I started writing him. I real- ized how lonely he was and I started writing also to other young men in the services who used to Hve near us." Finally the practice developed un- til Auntie's correspondents have sprung up In such far away spots as Canada and Singapore. "I write about anything but war," says Auntie, "and they write me all about their personal life, without glving away any secrets," TN -- It is discouraging to the parents when their child lags or fails at school. More , however, to the child. This second fact parents are prone to overlook. There- fore, they tend to scold the lagging child and charge him with laziness If only they could, even for a few minutes, be in the child's place, just to get his feelings, they would do very differently, Of course, if the child runs about at night when he has home assign- ments from school, he just won't have time to get these lessons. The problem then for the parent is not to hound the child about the les- sons but to cultivate in him the habit of being home on nights be- fore school and going at his home work at a regular time and place. With some children in school it may be too late to re-establish these good habits. If their parents can do nothing about these habits how much less can they do about the lessons? The obvious warning is to parents of younger children to make sure adequate controls will have been established early. Don't Nag Under no conditions can the par- ent hope to help the child improve in his work at school by scolding and nagging at him about it. If you really want to help this child, learn from his teachers, or from an expert, just what can be done at home to contribute to his Success at school. Say the child is in the fourth or fifth grade. Is his trouble in reading, spelling, arith- metic? If in arithmetic, about the first thing to ascertain is whether he has learned by heart the simple 100 basic addition facts and the 100 basic subtraction facts, as 7 and 9 as he counts or guesses in relation to the facts his troubles will con- tinue. In order to help him, you will induce him to memorize these facts, just as he memorizes the mul- tiplication facts, a few an evening. Maybe he has not yet caught on to the process of hard subtraction, hard addition, or long division. If not, you might, if you are poised and serene, show him in an even- ing or two, by working calmly and patiently a few samples with him. likewise you might help him with are 16, 8 from 13 leaves 5. So long. specific troubles in fractions, denom- inate numbers, percentage. Or, his arithmetic might be with berbal (reading) problems. If so, the. chances are he is a poor reader or so much in haste that he doesn't take time enough to read the prob- lem carefully, but hurriedly looks from one number to another among the words and guesses it is add, subtract, multiply, or "guzinto." Parent Control Anyway, the average parent who is self-controlled, poised and patient, who never lets the voice rise, nor even feels angry at the child with trouble in arithmetic, might easily be able to locate this ehild's diffi- culty and help him overcome it. Of course, any parent who can read fairly well can easily find out if the child has trouble in reading, No standard test will be needed. If this child must pause, stutter and stumble over every few words, it is clear that what he is trying to read is too hard for him. But this may be the book or assignment for this child's grade. No matter. He will not improve much in reading through the torture of trying to read from such. Find materials that are easy enough for him to read, that alsa will be interesting to him. Better still, if you can induce him to aloud to a child under six to enters tain that child. You may have any one of the following by writing me at 235 Bast 45th Street, N. Y. City, enclosing a self-addressed envelope with a three- cent stamp on. it. 1. The 100 addition and 100 sub- traction facts. 2. Home Helps for the poor read« er. 3. Home Helps for the poor spel- ler. Solving Parent Problems Q. What may happen if a tot is nearly always dressed better than his playmates? A. He may lose their friendship and become a lonely, suffering soul. Q. 8hould we teach a boy never to hit a girl, even when assailed by her? A. No; in a child under nine or ten the .rules of self-defense have no regard for sex, as a rule. And it is not good for any girl to impose on other children. REFUSES TO QUIT WARTIME ENGI.AND Washington, Nov. 5. (CP)--Diana Lindsay, an English girl of 16, has refused her father's offer to send her to friends in America where she knows she would "find life very happy." In a letter to John W. Hanes, former under-secretary of the Unit- ed States Treasury, Diana, who lives from generals to flight-lieutenants. When first established by Mrs. Massey as what might be called a commissioned edition of the now famous Beaver Club, organized for the men of the ranks, the Officers' Club was housed in ropms made available by Percy Clews, European Manager of the Canadian National Railways. The club outgrew this ac- dation, however, and trans- ferred to quarters loaned by the Cunard Steamship Company. with her parents in Lond set forth these reasons for remaining there: "I could not leave my country at this time. I am standing on the threshold of womanhood. With all the people of England who are thinking beyond the abyss and who are able to stand apart from them- selves, I know that life after the war cannot be lived as it was be- fore. 5 "Girls cannot live in a whirl of dancing and sports during these years when they can help their country, just as there must not be men who will not work when there is work todo... "We are fighting for our freedom, but we must not fight for the right to misuse that freedom till it is no longer a splendid thing but degrad- ed . ., therefore a new, a rejuvenat- ed England must rise out of all the misery and suffering of the war. "And with my people who will re- mold this country I too would take my place and I know I cannot have the glory that is to come unless I share in the intermediate period of suffering." Canadian Women Mark Club Work London, Nov. 5 (OP)--Organiza- tions set up in London for the com- fort and entertainment of Cana- didn troops are already acquiring a history. The oldest of them, the Officers' Club, founded by Mrs. Vincent Mas- «sey, wife of Canada's High Commis. gioner, celebrated one year of active service in October when a midday patrol ate the 16,063rd lunch served at the club. The surroundings are as quiet and homely as London's bomb-scarred west-end nowadays allows; the membership is free to all officers of Canadian services and prices are nominal--for instance, tea and cakes cost sixpence--while the ser- vice is maintained by Oanadian wo- men who give gladly of their time. As far as possible the meals are Canadian in style. Names in the visitors' book are of men from all parts of Canada from the Arctic to the international moundary, and from all ranks -- from acting sub-lieutenants of the Royal Canadian Naval Volunteer Reserve to Alr Commodores and KNICK-NACKS For furniture dents in rugs, cover dented area with damp cloth, then press with hot iron. Unless dent is too deep the moist heat will make the nap come back. After rug is thoroughly dry, brush it. * * » : If vegetables are stale or wilted, soak for an hour in cold water to which you have added some vinegar or lemon juice. * PP When you are lending dishes or pans for any special occasion, mark them with a brightly colored finger nail polish. This makes "returning" them easier, and you can remove marks with a polish remover, * +o Try this appetizing new tomato or fruit juice cocktail accompani ment: Mix % cup mashed sardines, % cup white cream cheese, 1 tea- spoon lemon juice, }4 teaspoon each of minced chives, parsley, and cel- ery. Spread on buttered crackers and toast until brown. Serve hot. * * ee If your gas bill is overlarge it may be that you use your large stove burner often when a smaller one would do the work as well, * PP To keep your metal sinks bright and shiny, scour them freguently with a fine powder applied with a sponge. (To determine whether or not the powder is "fine," rub it be- tween the fingers. If no grit is felt. it is all right.) Rinse the sink with cold water, then wipe it dry and polish it with a soft cloth or crushed paper toweling. Cut roses will keep fresh longer it you cut off the thorns, allowing more absorption surface, Cutting the stems slanting also helps in the same way.
