Fortunately, a woman is still efficient as @ wife and mother after 29. And maybe she will func- tion more completely in this dual role if the chain of ages is firmly implanted, for married women, who are attempting to increase the family bank account, may find themselves on the retired list.

CHICAGO ¥ NEW YORK BOSTON Morrow’s Nomination ‘he overwhelming victory of Dwight W. Morrow in the w Jersey Republican primary in obtaining the U. 5. atorial nomination almost inevitably guarantees his stion. Even his two opponents in the party have has- ed to affirm the verdict and have pledged him their sport in the general campaign. .8 for Alexander Simpson, his Democratic opponent, re is nothing to fear in that direction. Simpson once od pretty high in New Jersey, but that state was much cken: up by the Hall-Mills murder in New Brunswick, i Simpson popularity was considerably damaged by ignment as special prosecutor in that case, following arrest of Mrs. Hall, the widow, on charges of being slayer of the apple tree pair found with throats cut. e murder trial for a time was full of political repercus- a. Simpson was the loser by it. Mection of Morrow to the senate will again give New sey @ senator of wet standing comparable to the drjp- ‘pMintensify of former Senator Edward Edwards, Dem- at, who failed to be returned several years ago. The te nomination already has confirmed the poll recently {ducted by the Literary Digest, as to eighteenth jendment sentiment in the Garden state. That poll i New Jersey was a leader in wet sentiment. A lity of 300,000 over Franklin Fort, the dry candidate, ld seem to bear out the Digest’s figures. | Dawes as Chicago’s Mussolini Jonditions in Chicago, where the civic plight has ) hed such infamy that talk of a dictatorship by Gen. firles G.

How to Raise Children Our psychologists have been very busy of late telling us how we should raise our children. The job ought to pe done scientifically, they insist; most of us have not the knowledge to be good parents, and botch the job fearfully. Now, however, comes Miss Joanna C. Colcord of the Russell Sage Foundation to laugh these pretensions to scorn. Miss Colcord tells the national conference on social work, meeting in New York, that the old-fashioned, un- scientific way of raising children is after all about the best way there is. “The most stable children,” she says, “seem to be reared by parents who are too busy at useful tasks to interfere unnecessarily in the developmertt of the children.” That sounds like common sense. The psychologists are prone to take in a little too much ground in their claims. Defending Mexico’s Good Name It is not hard to understand why the republic of Mexico is preparing to censor all imported American films and books to see to it that nothing “degrading to Mexico” is allowed to pass. National pride has come to life strongly below the Rio Grande during the last few years. The government is trying to foster it; and however little you may like the idea of censorship, you must admit that this supervision of American books and movies is not without reason. The Mexican almost invariably plays the role of vil- lain in an American story or film. Indeed, whenever a Mexican character comes on the scene the seasoned read- er, or playgoer, knows at once that he is up to no good; and if a group of Mexicans comes on one can be prepared for skullduggery on a large scale. Mexico's censorship, accordingly, isn’t hard to under- stand. A Sport or a Racket? Now that the most recent heavyweight “championship” fight has ended in the usual unsatisfactory manner, it is.to be hoped that the country can get back to normal and recognize the fact that boxing, in this country, is much more like a racket than a sport. All sports in this country are commercialized, of course. College football suffers from this blight, and profes- sional baseball is quite frankly a business proposition. But the clement of play has never been eliminated in either of these. Each can still be called a sport. But boxing! It is getting to be the regular thing for the customer to be left holding the bag. Indeed, it is getting so common that the customer hardly deserves any sympathy. H | Editorial Comment | ‘As a Man Plays It’ (Columbus Dispatch) A member of congress arose on the floor of the house the other day and pompously declared: “I insist that no woman take a seat in either branch of congress who a not willing and able to play the game as a man Plays it.” Such a statement sounds somewhat ludicrous in this day of congressional blocs and factions, and individual free lances, when there is, weeping and wailing because men themselves will not play the game according to any | recognized rules or customs whatever. If a woman should be elected to the senate and should be informed at the front door that she must declare her willingness to play the game as a man plays it, she might answer by asking “What man? Shall it be Borah or Smoot or Norris or Bingham or Caraway or Johnson or. Heflin or Couzens?” This is no age of submission to arbitrary standards, and it may be taken for granted that women entering con- gress will not begin their services by studying up on man-made and extra-constitutional traditions as to how they shall conduct themselves. Stalin of the Centre (New York Times) It is frequently true that heresy of today is orthodoxy tomorrow. In Russia under the rule of Joseph Stalin the statement must be revised to say that there heresy “of today is the creed of tomorrow and the heresy again of the day after. The communist regime in Rus- sia has been accused by its enemies of dedicating itself to the task of remolding life to a rigid materialistic formula, But there will be few to deny that, if the communist, creed is hardset, the communist record of 13 years in power has @ series of ext improvisations, record of policy this is implicit in the very nature of “policy,” and would manifest itself impressive. .A back- upon to be the first to hich is primarily an industrial ‘rich” peasants, Within less than three months he was denouncing “excesses” against the peasants.

She had realized Alan would repay Ber- nadine for any actual loss she had suffered, but that might not be serious, It was the fact that Ber- nadine might have made money and was deprived of the opportunity that ‘had given her so much sat- isfaction, She, too, had watched the stock- ticker with growing uneasiness that day.

It was the envy of one on a lower plane of life for one on a higher. But this Phillipa had never admitted to herself. She nad wanted to take Natalle’s place, and come into the office, dressed in ex- pensive furs and French chapeaux, because she had thought it would thrill her as she believed it thrilled Natalie. But she dared not utter a word to further the expose. She turned first hot, then cold, with impatience as Bernadine continued to stand staring at the letter. She wanted to cry out: “OL course you didn’t write it. Don't you see? Natalie did it!” Perhaps her avid eagerness com- municated itself to Bernadine, for the latter suddenly looked over at her. Phillipa felt the penetration of her glance. It brought her up sharp, warned her to guard her- self. Bernadine, if no one els might suspect her, she thought. For it was ptain that Bernadine knew someone had changed her letter. . Phillipa remembered, now that her mind was functioning more normally, that she had no reason —that 1s, no reason that she want- ed to appear to Alan or Bernadine —to be waiting there. “Is that all, Mr. Converse?” she asked, to cover herself. “Yes,” he said shortly, his eyes on Bernadine. Phillipa turned ab- ruptly and left the room, as though she had merely been wwiting for his permission to go. “What is it?” Alan asked, when Phillipa <had; closed the door de- hind her.

The | the sun is good for every part of the body it is therefore good for the eyes.” Answer: I do not consider it a good plan to look directly at the sun. There is danger of irritating the ret- ina and causing injury to the deli- cate nerves inside of the eyes. The body is helped by sunbaths because the blood is enriched by the ultra- violet effect of the sun’s rays. There is no single part benefited because the sun’s rays touched that spot, but only because of the genereal blood improvement. ‘ Is Water Fattening Question: 5. D. asks: “Is water fattening if used with meals?” Answer: The body is composed of about 78% ‘of water, and those in- clined to be fat have a tendency to hold in the body an excessive amount of water. It is doubtful if there much more effect on the fat person from drinking with meals, or from drinking the same quantity of water between meals. The fact is, one who is ig- clined to obesity usually drinks ‘a large amount of liquids at all times. If this is cut down, either at meals or between meals, it will help in re- ducing weight, but care must be exer- cised in not reducing the liquid in- take to the point where the urine be- comes heavy with too many solids in who could it have been?” she added wildly. Their eyes met, and though Ber- nadine’s expression of utter be wilderment did not change, Alan's face slowly colored under her gage. “You do not seem to siispect ms?” he remarked bitterly. : “Alan!” x For a moment silence. Then: “Thank you, Bernadine,” he said quietly. For her voice bad car- ried complete conviction of his Hon- esty, as well as deepest reproach for his doubting her faith 4a bins. “But you see, don’t you, how I might have taken advantage of your tip?” he pressed on. & “Yes, but suppose you had want- ed to play it yourself; would that have made it necessary to leave.me out?” “No,” Alan had to agree, { Bernadine sank into a cla: ‘Someone with a motive did: “But who? And why?” "—Alan’s lips were grimly compressed—“if it was done by any- ~ one in my employ, I'll find out who it is." He reached out to tauch Phillipa’s bell. “Wait.” Bernadine extended « hand to stop him. “Hadn't we pet- ter talk it over a little first?” © “But I wish to ask Miss West who had access to the letter,” Alan: “Miss West herself is an employe here,” Bernadine reminded him. a hesftated. isso “Yes, I know,” Bernad! 1d; “dt will be horrible to put them at der suspicion one by one. Wouldn't: could have done it?” t “But I must know ™ bad the letter,” Alan insisted. \ : “I suppose so,” Bernadine and Alan pressed the button. Phillipa, prepared for the sum- mons, was outwardly calm; when she entered the office. She knew that as long as the guilt had not been fastened upof any one per- son, she as well as all the others, must come in for a share of sus- picion. F She felt she could go through with it safely. For an instant or two, when Bernadine stood at the window with the letter, she had been afraid her work was so clever broportion to the water content. The fat person should keep his drinking o the minimum and still keep the urine a light straw color. (Copyright, 1930, by The Bell Syndicate, Inc.)
