Aug. 24 - 31 - Sept 7) Mrs. Smith waa particularly fond of reminding her husband that the silver was hers, the piano was hers, and the furniture was hers, and Smith was getting tired of it. One night Mrs. Smith was awakened by noises downstairs. She shook her husband, relates Pearsons London Weekly. "Henry," she said hoarsely. "Get up. There are burglars downstairs." "Burglars!" echoed Smith, wearily. "Well, let 'era burgle. There's .nothing of mine down there." Nice of Them . A woman had gone to Scotland for the first time in her life. On her return to London she expressed herself as quite surprised at the comparative civilization of the north. "Our English customs are spreading rapidly," she said. "Even in a little town like St. Andrews they have a nice golf course."--Pearson's Weekly. Poor Elixabeth Two little girls who could not have been more than 12 at the most were discussing plans for a party. "I'm inviting only couples," said one of them, with great dignity. "But I'm facing quite a problem with Elizabeth. She hasn't got a boy friend--you know, she's only eight."--Cleveland Plain Dealer. Simple Test _ Professor--I am going to speak on liars today. How many of you have read the twenty-fifth chapter of the text? Nearly every student raised his hand. Professor--Good. You are the group to whom I wish to speak. There is no twenty-fifth chapter. LITTLE FAUX PAS Household Hints By BETTY WELLS DEALY we sometimes get pretty mad at all the people who tell us how to raise our baby. Because they each have a different idea and how are we to know! The only thing we're sure about is that the baby is entitled to a room of his own. Not for style or luxury but just for everyday convenience and comfort. Where baby can rest in quiet away from the confusion and noise of the family. Where he can learn the first principles about order and privacy. Where mother can keep all his tilings together and handy. without interruptions or diversions. Now with so many excellent new improvements in children's furniture, it behooves a conscientious ft He (exaltedly)--I feel I could put all the world under your feet! She--Sir, permit me to say the size of my feet would not permit the carrying out of your ambition by any means.

"Yes, but you forget he infected the whole school for you!" Voice That Tokl Voice over the telephone to schoolmaster--Please, Alfred Jones will not be at school today, because he is in bed sick. Schoolmaster -- Very good; but who is this speaking? Yoke--My father. Not That Slow "Are you a messenger boy?" asked the near-sighted man of a boy in the street. "No, sir," was the indignant reply. "It's my sore toe that makes me walk so slowly."--Royal Arcan* um Bulletin. It Pays Now "You know, dear, you hold that umbrella over me every bit as nicely as before we were married. In fact, you are even more careful." "I have to pay for your dresses BOW."--Minneapolis Journal. The Weather Again Election Agent--That was a good long speech our candidate made on the farming question, wasn't it? Farmer--It wasn't so bad; but a couple o' nights good rain wud done a sight more good. NO SUCH THING "So he's Married for the rest of his life?" "He's married; but I doubt that he'll find much rest." No bakes for Hawaii ----Authorities will not permit cir- Cttses to ship snakes into Hawaii. As a "serpentless" land the Pacific isle rates in a class with Ireland and a couple of runner-up places. The Irish claim snakes can't live oil their island, and have not lived there for centuries, observes a writer in the Washington Post. The common lizard is said to be the only reptile found in Ireland. Madagascar has been publicized as an island with no poisonous snakes. But, among its "harmless" reptiles is the tree boa constrictor, the "most mean-tempered of the nohrvenomous serpents."

There's a table and chair that are built to develop proper posture and correct eating habits. The chests and chifferobes are designed to make orderliness come naturally by being of size and shape to be handled easily by a small child. Then they are so planned that various pieces can be combined into a more grown-up ensemble as the child grows older. The new type crib can be Jiggled into a bed when baby days are over. What's more it's built so solidly that it doesn't rattle and it is equipped with posture springs. And this furniture is quite gaysome pieces have numbers painted on the*drawers; others have Scottie dogs leashed to the-knobs. Washington Letter Washington, August 23--Recurrent war alarms from overseas apparently have relatively little effect on official life here. There has been so much fist-shaking over territorial concessions in Europe that the American government continues to devote its major time to domestic matters though foreign dispatches indicate that several nations are on the brink Where she can care for him fof war. The absence of the President, the Secretary of State and other high-ranking officials has a reassuring effect on the rank and file of citizens and > on officialdom. The presence of large numbers of troops around the city for summer maneouvers failed to excite any concern over the possibility of war involving this country. Political talk is largely confined to social functions where the bigwigs gather to sip eooling drinks. Only those chained to their posts by duty remain in town. The "humidity which envelops Washington during the hot spell is not conducive to political discussions which always have a tendency to ruffle feelings and tempers. Even on Capitol Hill where the employees have more than a passing interest in political developments there is a distinct let-down in activity. Congressional secretaries, remaining during the boss's vacation, settle down to routine matters and resent demands from constituents for this and that favor which require rambling around the government departments. Though Thomas Corcoran is carried on the government rolls as a high-salaried attorney at the Reconstruction Finance Corporation his goings and doings claim plenty of attention. Corcoran, affectionately dubbed "Tommy the Cork" by the President, is known as an under-cover agitator for the continuance for the radical or liberal theories of government. He has been quietly conducting an employment agency whereby lawyers and economists who subscribe to his pet theories are planted in Federal posts. The fact that the Congress appropriated large sums for the ex pansion of some government agenci gives Mr. Corcoran splendid opportunities to work his friends into key positions where policies are shaped and laws enforced. Therefore, ke^n observers endeavor to keep tabs on the vacancies and scrutinize the records ihl that leaves her yards jblic view. And there's a Effectual Fences. America is about the only country I've been open to pub lot to be S&4 f°r that idea. For one thing, it doubtless reflects the fact that we haven't needed high walls to protem our homes, as have the peoples of most other parts of the world. /And then, too, open yards with nice lawns and gardens make a town look so much more attractive than when you can only see blank walls . . . the better sections of an American town look like parks for everyone to see and enjoy. But there's a lot to be said for the old-world custom of enclosing a place in a high wall or an effectual fence. It gives privacy that enof Corcoran - endorsed candidates. Tommy is not a social butterfly so it is difficult to draw inferences from the types of guests he has for luncheon and dinner. It is Corcoran aittl others of the "Palace Guard," as White House advisers are typed, who are putting steam behind the third-term move* ment. If Mr. Roosevelt should retire at the end of his term, these particular followers would soon be chased into political limbo. It is generally agreed that one of the first official acts of a successful candidate for the Presidency would be to wield the «xecutioneer's axe on the official heads of this group. Their only hope of self-preservation is another t«rm for the Chief Executive or in his ability to select and elect his successor. The conservative and "middle-of-the-roaders" among the Democrats blame much of their party's troubles on the visionary dreams of Tommy Corcoran and his pals because they have access to Mr. Roosevelt's ear. The publicity given the next census is for the purpose of preparing the public for the appearance of enumcr ators. Yet is has also stirred ambitions among the smaller fry politicos They want to obtain the credit for naming the temporary census takers in their vicinity. As a consequence the local offices of our national legislators are besieged. A few hundred employees will be taken from Civil Service lists in Washington to prepare for the field work. The actual enumeration will not require more than a month. The • nose counting under the fifteenth census will start April 1. The totals must be compiled before December of 1940 for submittal to the President, but the other details will require some years to tabulate. Because of crowded conditions in government buildings the Census Bureau is now seeking outside space for this enormous task. By the way, a census every ten years is mandatory under the Constitution. A new Federal agency, the War Resources Board, is now functioning This outfit in event of an emergency will have broad powers over the in dustries of the country. At present, they hav^ considered policies and ere ated subcommittees to study the many phases of national defense of which they* will be the coordinating body. The\ civilians and the armed services have representatives on this Board. Army and Navy experts have been working for many years on the subject of industrial mobilization. The question of man-power is closely followed by the problem of strategic materials. In all the war plans it is necessary that a steady supply cf these materials be assured, especially where the items are not obtainable in sufficient amounts within our borders. The President has given this body the "go" signal and they a^g. proceeding without much fanfare. -•* The Ward 'Dessert* The word "dessert" comes from • French word which means "to dear the table." Battle After War The Battle of New Orleans, Coring the War of 1812, was fought two weeks after the treaty of peace was signed.

Thus may even quite a small plot of ground serve very usefully as an outdoor sitting room-Mr dining room in fine weather. ' Without an enclosure you would feel too public to use a yard fully. Not to mention the relief of being able to enclose a toddler safely. We've been looking into the fence situation lately--the stone or brick waU is prohibitive in cost for all but the plutocrats. Wovenwood fence is very popular now--that's that French provincial fencing that looks like small trees put together for a wall (actually that's just what it is). This is available in various heights and makes a most attractive wall at not too great cost. Good metal fences aren't cheap but they are excellent permanent barriers which provide adequate privacy if you grow vines over them. Lattice fences or lattice-and-batten wood fences are good solutions of the fence problem. So is a good picket fence. As cheap as anything and very attractive for the right property is the post and rail fence, which of itself doesn't make privacy, but with wire netting behind it you can have vines that do a fine job of closing off the public view. In a nutshell, a high fence simply means that you'll get much more use out of your yard, whatever its size. • Betty W«U»--WKU Scrvtc*.

First remember that the size of the picture depends on the size of the wall space.
