It's nice to nave a man In the house. 1 get sick and tired all day listening to the wo- men around here." "Harriet, your father's tired," re- monstrated Mrs. Thomas. "Let him cit down. Had a hard day, Harry?" "I am tired, Chief,' 1 he said, put- ting Harriet down and kissing his wife's cheek. He flopped into a worn, comfortable old Morris chair. "This grind is getting me down" He. stopped, grinned and pulled Mrs. Thoma-s down on his knees. "Chief, I had a pretty easy day and a pretty good day. I guess hus- bands Just get in the habit of com- ing home tired.' 1 "Harriet," said her mother, "rim up aud brush your hair.'' "I know. Tfou're going to talk about Mary getting taa-r-r " "Go up and brush your hair!" "Why do people try to fool peo- ple that can't be foo!e<I? Oh all right. I'm going." "Remember, if you get yourself dirty I'll put you under the shower - dress aud all!" Harriet left re- luctantly, and Mrs. Thomas said: There's another privilege of be- ing a husband and a father hav- ing your pipe and newspaper up In the bedroom this evening." "Suffering cats! You know this chair is the only comfortable " "Tonight ie a very special night. Mary is thinking of getting mar- riedand tonight this room be- longs to her." Marry The Lone Ranger? "Mary?

"Chief, there's something maybe I should hare told you before this. \\"asn,'t Ted Foster pretty serious- ly involved with that little Ather- ton. flibbe-rty-gibbet?" "But Anastasia Athertou m in New York." "I got a letter f. om ' her last week. She safd not to rent her house. She's coming back to live In it." "Back here to stay?" Mrs. Thom- as's voice expressed concern. "I thought she was working as a mod- el." "Personally I'd pay somebody ten dollars cash to go to Miss Ath- erton and tell her what's hap.pned to Mary and Ted since she left I mean, In case it is Ted. Do you think he would be- weak enough I mean fool enough " Some sound, slight yet suspici- ous, had caught his ear. At a nod from his wife he reached out his foot and closed the grill of the hot air furnace. A sudden sneeze from upstairs confirmed bis suspicion of having been overheard, and he con- tinued: "A boy Ted's age mar- riage the first couple of months ie no picnic a streamlined redhead handy I wonder." "Our first couple of years was no picnic and we got through it." "But I didn't have a redhead hamly: he kidded her. Evelyn au- nouuced that dinner was just about rwdy. Harriet, her ear glued to the- hot air register, had listened to bet- parents' conversation, but when .Mr. Thomas closd the vent down- stairs a vague cloud of coal dust flew out of the grating into her face, over her dress, and she could not suppress the sneeze- that gave her away. He Owei Her Ice Cream Without waiting to clean up, Harriet betook herself to tbe up- stairs tele-phone, spoke low into the mouthpiece: "Hellman Auto Ag- ency? I'd like to speak to Ted Fos- ts-r, please." After an interval Ted answered. "Oh. It's you. Hello, Harriet." "I celled up to make a business proposition." said Harriet in a cau- tious voice. "If I told you that my sister Mary spent an hour in trout of her mirror just in case a cer- tain young man happened to drop in that certain young man would owe me some ice cream, and he might just as wel! bring it with htm. and might just as well be pistachio! " "Thanks, Harriet! At eight o'- clock tonight you'll have a gallon of pistachio ice cream!" Ted. grin- ning broadly asked permission to take out a Cornet demonstrator car that evening. Mr. Hellman granted It, but Ted had no more than left the office until the 'phone rang again and the some youthful voice asked to speak to Jim Rey- nolds. Ted's rival In selling Cor- net autos a* well as for Mary's hand. To him Harriet made the euuiie "business proposition" that sue had just made to Ted. aud it was as eager snapped up. And then Jim Reynolds request-si 'Mv. HtMlman's permissiou to take out a demon- strator car that evening. When Harriet didn't answer the call to dinner, Mary was sent up after her. She fomul Harriet stand- ing, fully clothed, under the show- er. "Harriet! Are you crazy?" cried Wary, jumping to the shower. "Mother said If 1 got dirty she'd put me under the shower bath, dres ami all. so I'm just saving her th trouble," responded Har- riet with a virtuous air. (To Be Continued) She Hated Men But Married One Mrs. Marian Phillips Ahmlale, whose "83 reasons why I hate men'' touched off widespread pub- licity two years ago when she was a co-ed at the University of Michigan, has just become' the ! mother of a seven-pound jriil She wrote the reasons for a ,-am- pus literary publication. She eloped with Einar Almdale in I'.MO after a courtship which she says proved ho v.aa not like other men. Various Types Are Analyzed Character Analysis Is Subject of Talk Based on Physical Trait* Certain character types se--m to have physical traits in comuaon, Mrs. A. Cameron Grant pointed out In an address on "Character An- alysis" at a recent meeting <;f the Mount Royal Women's Comm nity Club. In the beginning of her talk Mrs. Grant stressed the need for guidance for young people caoosiug a vocation. "It is such a wafp "f time and energy to force d:ili!:vn into fields where laey have no tal- ents, making them feel inferior, in- stead r-r guiding them in thi- dir- ection iu~ which they can nuke a definite contribution to society," she remarked. SKIN i.'OLORS IXKLVENr-E ACTIONS Color has been foun'I to be mo:'e than skin deep, the speaker noteii. Environment influences life, habits and finally general characteristics. Hence, those at the equator where extremes in seasons need not b contended with, live an easy life, with food and shelter and cloth- Ing easily acquired. There i* no need to be markedly creative. With many free hours these people turn to things artistic, colors, music, characteristics associated with ;he dark colored races. On the other hand, groups moving farther north, with no need to resist the heavy rays of tue sun, have lighter skins, tnd must struggle for daily needs, until, in the north, the blonde races are found practically and resource- ful. READING PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS Mrs. Grant described various types of personalities ou the basis of physical characteristics. She mentioned the mental type who prefers to fight with ideas and words rather than with fiets: the driving type, who is the football hero in school and the engineer or business man in adult life; the ty,.e who becomes an executive because he has learned to direct others; the conservative type; and the nian-of-action type who Joins the air force or seeks other forms of adventure. Teach Child To Finish His Job Youngsters Should Learn to Stick With A Task Once Be- gun There, is one point about child- ren's wort that needs attention. It concerns the good begiuuer and the- bored finisher. This tendency to "dabble" is re- ceding as special courses in train- ing come to the fore. Witt atten- tion, directed to a special vocjtion or trade or profession, there ie less tendency to fool away t!tue and quit. DISCOURAGE "DABBLING" It is in childhood that this ment- al habit needs to be jelled, if the. future career is to be a success. It is the "personal" quality that counts in all good work. This is no day for dilettantes or fiddlers. The roadside is full of the weak sisters who quit. Only the firm In heart get there. Only the child taught to carry a job through will be infected sufficiently with the virus of determination to am- ount to anything later in life. Duck Shocked It was so cold recently at Port- land.

At national registration last Aug-ust, about 65 per cent of British Columbians who filled in cards said they were in "good"' health. In Ontario 62 per cent placed themselves in that cate- gory, in the Maritime Provinces 69 per cent, on the Prairies 57 per cent and in Quebec 50 per rent. Totals for the Dominion indi- cated 56 per cent of all Cana- dians were in good health, accord- ing to the detailed statistics tabled in the House of Commons.
