No'rmo of late has amused Wash- ington so much as the little per- sonal feud in the House of Representa- tives between Ham of New York and Johnny Schafer of Wisconsin.

He is a Harvard man, captain of his alma mater’s foot ball team one year. In the World War he ‘was a captain, then major and won the Croix de Guerre. In business he is vice president of an insurance firm with offices on Broad- got no farther than high At the time of his election to Congress he was a locomotive engineer on the Chicago & Northwestern Rail- road. He, too, has a war record, but as an enlisted man. Fish is tall. Schafer is short, in- ¢clined to be stout, and of the belligerant type. Fish is 42 years old, Schafer is 37. | The trouble started two days before the holiday recess, when both wanted imous house five minutes. Pish was recog- nized first and Schafer let him have A few minutes leter, when Schafer was recognized, Fish roared ldun objection and Johnny had to sit lown.. . But before he took his seat he mut- t. Ham smiled at him sweetly. Johnny, with red face and ready to fight, glared back. It was easy to see that Schafer was itching for revenge. His opportunity came the next day. And luck was with him, for Fish was in the chamber. Remembering thas Fish had been peeved by certain press reports concerning a visit to the White Ho\ll-le. Schafer attacked from that angle. “Of course no one has the virtue of infallibility but the gentleman from New York,” he began. “So impressed is he with his importance that he lost many nights’ sleep worrying because a certain newspaper said he spent two ruinutes with the President and not 15 | minutes. . . . “I suf next time he notify the reporters to accompany him and that each be required to have a stop watch. . . . that when he returns he print on the first page of the Congressional Record . . . in big and bold letters . . . | the fact that he had called and spent so_much time. .. . Pirst sarcastic, then bitter, always irate, Schafer poured it into Fish. He overlooked nothing, and was still going strong when time was called.

Or I can bring his own little chair. That is quite all right.” “I'm afraid that wouldn’t do. Fifty | children in a class is all the teacher can | manage. It is really too many, but 80 many children want to come—and we have only the one class—what can we do?” “I'm sure the whole 50 do not come every day, and you can put Jackie in a corner somewhere,’and when a child is absent he can take his place. Any- thing so he can come.” “What good would it do? We cannot crowd in another child. The teacher cannot attend to so many. They can- not do good work without her help. ‘There are coats and hats and rubbers to be put on for 50 children. So many children crowded into one room make for sickness. I'm sorry, but Jackie will have to wait.” ‘Why 50 children in a kindergarten?

Since when does a teacher have the right to tell us what to wear?” “Quietly there, children, you all talk #0 fast and so loud I can't hezr what ‘\:u say. You sound like Joan and the by in an argument. I understand you to say that our teacher forbade you to wear high led shoes?” i “Well, no, not forbade.

There is no saying how much time, how much of power we save in every kindergarten class. Do mot think that kindergarten is just play and that your children have enough play without going to school for it. Know that your children need sense training, need to know color and form, need to work with their hands, need to uild with their companions, need to play in groups, need to sing and march and dance, need to learn how to live with other children and work intelli- gently some part of every day. Our education is topheavy. We are putting more money and more intelli- gence into teaching high school chil- dren than ever we put on the little ones, and it is these who need us most. Give them what they need when they need it, and our high schools will pros- per the better for it. Not a crowded kindergarten, but an- other kindergarten every time 30 chil- dren are .

To ap- preciate what a convenient life we are leading now, it is necessary sometimes to realize what the fireplace of those days really meant. Not intended for charm, although it really had that, it served as the heating plant and also as the kitchen stove. About it were grouped kettles and all implements necessary to the duties of the cook and housekeeper. No. 1 in the fllustration is a holder for the candles, which were hand- d:zgfd. and how sparingly they werc used! No. 2 is a carrier for coals. When a fire went out, coals were borrowed from the next house, which was sometimes several miles away. No. 3 was a toaster and No. 4 was the bellows which encouraged stubborn embers. No. 5 is a bed warmer in which wore placed a few coals. Then it was shcied around between the sheets. No. 6 was a welcome foot warmer to those who returned from long walks on'| cold days. (Copyright, 1930.) Breakfast Bacon It is a bitter Winter morning, com- plying with the prophet’s warning, ex- pressed in language scarcely priestly, that this week's weather would be beustly. A harsher morn could not be chosen; outdoors the whole blamed world is frozen. Yet I don’t feel dis- tressed, forsaken, for my Aunt Jane is frying bacon. The scent pervades my humble dwelling, and makes extremely pleasant smelling. With watch hand and teeth a-grating, impatiently I'm watching, waiting, for that most savory of dishes, the object of my fondest wishes. Meanwhile the luscious scent is stealing around all corners of my shieling, it fills the house from sill to rafter and fills my soul with joy and laughter. Men talk about the scent of roses as being good for human noses, and garlands foreign and domestic lrv; n with which to scent us; perfumers al- ways are distilling the fragrance fine you see us spilling upon our clothing and ou whiskers when we would mix with stylish friskers. The druggist sells us perfumed waters to please our gifted wives and daughters, and throws us sometimes into rages—an ounce will take a whole day’s wages. These scents, if I am not mistaken, are cheap com- pared with frying bacon. It is a bitter | day, the storm clouds | threaten more disasters, the North is idlrk, the wild winds bellow, but I am feeling calm and mellow. Oh, let the frying breakfast bacon!

THE EVENING WHO REMEMBERS? BY DICK MANSFIELD. Registered U. 8. Patent Office. When St. Mary's Cemetery was lo- cated on Florida avenue, between Sec- ond and Third streets northwest? SUB ROSA BY MIML A Royal Wedding. Prince Humbert and Princess Marie are on their honeymoon after that wedding of their in Rome. You read all about the wedding and know that the bride wore a gown which reached to her arkles and the train was 23 feet long. The bridegroom wore the uniform of his regiment. The setting of this royal wedding was old fashioned and medieval. There may not have been any rice and old shoes, but the announcements of the wedding were sent out by 500 carrier pigerns. Those birds didn’t know that they were telling the world about the pair of cooing doves at the altar. It's nice to realize that this wed- ding wasn't a diplomatic move on the part of politiclans who wanted to unite Italy and Belgium, but a real | love affair between a boy and a girl. The royal bridegroom had had a crush on sweet Marie ever since she was 12 years old. A wedding like that makes us feel that they are like us and we like them. Every real wedding is a royal affair even when there are no kings and queens around waiting for the wedding cake to be cut. For the heart of a real man is princely and the soul of the girl he loves is a queenly one. Take the crowns off Hursbert and Marie, and you'd think they were a couple of your friends getting married. ‘There was nothing hasty about this Roman wedding nor was there the idea that, if we don't get along well together, we'll sign off. No, these royal hearts made their mutual decision once and for all. ‘When there is so much cheap sen- timent about marriage, it's pleasant to read about one of these old-time affairs where bride and bridegroom mean business. With a-lot of the kids who get married today, the affair seems to amount to little more than an invi- tation to a dance. A girl has her partner for a while, but thers isn't any of the old-style marathon, long-distance dance about it. Of course, we are inclined to envy Marie, who has such a royal husband, but we are really better off than she since we have a thousand to choose from where she had only one. These princes with the 18-karat hats are | mighty scarce these days. They are vastly outnumbered by the boys in the brown derbies. ‘We may not be able to find a Prince | Humbert, but we have a chance among | the many, many eligibles who are not | members of royal families. Then, we can always kid ourselves into thinking | that our marriage is a royal matter even when the fellow who proposes to us will never put his foot on a throne. our will be royal when love is king.

STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C., MONDAY, FEBRUARY 3, 1930, Shall KHMM Daughier From Marrying? | DorothyDix Mothers Make Mistake When They Try to Keep Daughters From Marrying Because Their Own Marriages Have Been Unhappy. MOST women are so incurably sentimental that they are anxious for their daughters to marry, no matter how disastrously their own marriages have turned out. Their own romance may have gone blooey and their prince charm- ing turned into a grouch, or a tightwad, or a philanderer, but they fondly believe | that their Mamie or Sadie will have better luck, and will marry and live happily ever afterward and never be evicted from her castle of dreams. | Or perhaps they realize that marriage is the great adventure, and that those who do not embark on that stormy and dangerous voyage miss something of thrill; something of a deep and wide knowledge of life; something of the hardening of the fibers of cne’s own soul, something of courage and endurance that is worth even risking shipwreck to gain. Or perhaps they look upon their boys and girls and feel that children are the consolation prize that a woman gets all. daughter from her own sad fate, but bogey it contains. lover.

So mothers make a mistake when Unhappy Wives | 1 “I find that the skeleton in my domestic closet is becoming a pretty big one,” wrote Charles Dickens to his friend and subsequent biographer, John Forster, 1854. Three years later we find him inditing the following tragic words: “Poor Catherine and I are not made for each other, and there is no help for it. It is not only that she makes me uneasy and unhappy, but I make her so, too, and much more so. * * * God knows she would have been a thousand times happier if she had married another kind of man, * * * ‘What a pity it is for her own I ever fell in her way * * Mr. and Mrs. Dickens separated in 1858. Incompatibility was the sole cause. He said: “Her temperament will not go with mine. I suppose that no two people, not viclous in themselves, ever were joined together who had greater difficulty in understanding one another.” 1t is easy to assume, from the known records of this infelicity, that Mrs. Dickens had a great deal to bear from her husband as he entered upon middle age. Her trials began even earlier. Americans noted as early as 1842, when Dickens came to the United States, that he was rude, petulant and otherwise m&omldente in his treatment of his wife. Dickens pleaded in his behalf pos- session of that “wayward and unsettled feeling which is part of the tenure on which one holds an imaginative life.” But since those closest to him noted a “hysterical restlessness” in him that must have been “terribly wearing to his wife,” we gather that he went beyond his rights in the matter. Edwin P. Whipple, for instance, speaks of his “strange fits of willfulness when he be- came altogether unamanageable and defiant of external control.” ‘We gain a splendid impression of Mrs. Dickens from the fact that she offered to efface herself and go away for her husband’s sake. But he insisted for some time that she stay and bear their “misfortune.” When in the middle fif- Yow’ll Make However it may be, most women want their daughters to marry, but not ‘There are some pessimistic women who, embittered by their own experiences, move heaven and earth to keep their daughters away from the altar, and many and tearful are the letters that I get from the daughters of such mothers, telling of how mother opposes marriage to the dearest boy in the world for no other reason than because she and dad haven't been happy together. Ol' course, it is easy to see why a woman who had been burnt to the bone by the purgatorial fires of an unfortunate marriage would try to save her but in hurrying up daughter’s wedding, and making her more determined to peep into the mltrlmoglnl skeleton closet and see for herself what sort of a grizzly For it is folly to hang out danger signals along the high road of love. No one ever heeds them. No one even profits by another's experience, the fact that mother has skidded over the brink of the precipice doesn't keep daughter from joy-riding down that way.

For a mother to attempt to keep her daughter from marrying because her been a disappointment to her is as foolish as for a man to try to keep his son from being a banker, because he has found that in those occupations there is endless work and worry | and anxiety, and that they call for sacrifice, and are full of disappointments and warn their daughters against marriage. They have seen all the bright hopes with which they started out trampled into the dust. They are nerve-racked with trying to make Their hands are hard and calloused with labor. They are heart hungry for the appreciation and the affection thet their husbands have long since ceased to show them, and they cannot bear to think of a pretty, gay, young daughter coming to be as they are, shabby and work worn, a drudge for a man who takes her for granted and never even notices BUT what the mother forgets is that even if her dream fails in the end, she She has had her hour of rapture. and the circling wings, and that is worth all it costs. She can never be as poor as the woman who has never felt the arms of love about her, or the burning of a kiss upon her lips. And she has known the ineffable bliss of a baby's head upon her breast and the clinging of little fingers to hers.

Light. “Thou wilt light my candle; the Lord my God will enlighten my darkness.”— Ps., 18.28. In the Bible light is frequently used as the symbol of our best blessings. In general literature it is commonly used as the symbol of knowledge, truth, wis- dom, purity, goodness and love. “The spirit of man is the candle of the Lord,” says Solomon. Man's spirit is the candle of the Lord only as divinely illuminated. God is not only the suthor of material light; He is the source of all light—intellectual, moral, spiritual, holy light! Offspring of Heaven first born,” sings Milton. Bacon writes: “The first creation of God in the works of the days was the light of the sense; the last was the light of the reason; and His Sabbath work ever since is the illumination of the spirit.” “Where shall wisdom be found? And where is the place of understand?” cried Job That has been the cry of man in all ages. David discovered the answer: “Thou wilt light my candle: the Lord my God will enlighten my darkness.” Would you know truth? Would you possess the knowledge that drives away the darkness of ignorance and super- stitution? Would you have your mind and heart illuminated with the under- standing and wisdom that make for useful and beautiful life? Would you be pure and good? Would you have a heart aflame with divine love? Do you desire so to live that your life will be. as a light from Heaven to those around you, putting to shame their evil and provoking them to good? Let all who desire these things make this their prayer: Shine upon me, O Lord, with the light of Thy counte- nance; illuminate my spirit; light my candle. DAILY DIET RECIPE SHRIMP CAKES.

Dark circles under the eyes are a common beauty blemish and many of my readers have requested informa- tion in regard to getting rid of these. In the first place, loss of sleep is bound to bring these telltale circles, and where this is their cause obvi- ously the only remedy is to see to it that one gets plenty of rest. Any extra physical strain or vworry also shows itself first around th: eyes, and here again the preventive treatment is most effective. One must try not to arrive at_the fatigue point. Dark circles under the eyes are often an indication of a rundown physical condition. The woman who stays in- doors a great deal and who falls to get an adequate amount of exercise in the open air will nearly always have to pay the price by dark circles under her eyes. These blemishes sel- dom trouble the woman who gets her allotted amount of sleep and who keeps her health radiant through plenty of fresh air and exercise.

Betty.—I suspect that the dark cir- cles under your eyes are caused by the condition of your health. It is However, there are some whdse skin under the eyes seems merely to be darker than the rest of the complexion, and in such cases it is well to pat on a little bleaching cream or lotion. In using creams of any kind around the eyes one should be extremely careful to prevent any from entering the eyes, or it will cause a smarting sensation just as does soap. Also pat it on very gently, as it is very easy to stretch the skin in such a way that premature eye wrinkles will be formed. In mas- saging directly beneath the eyes do not use any pressure, just a soothing and stroking or patting motion. Press gently around the outer corners and upward, following the contour of the eyes. Puffiness under the eyes is often an accompaniment to the dark circles, and for this condition the following lotion is good: Glycerin, 1 ounce; tannic acid, 5 grains; cologne water, 2 ounces: Mix and apply with absorbent cotton. It is a good idea to pat on a food cream around the eyes, as it is here that wrinkles usually make their first appearance. Those troubled with dis- ‘Ways for Women to Invest. Many women, inspired by the possi- bilities -of investing, have come to us for advice on how to start their own investing careers. There are two ways to begin an in- vestment program. One way is to save systemmatically each month a certain sum of money and accumulate a fixed amount at the end of a period of years. The other way is perhaps more ap- plicable to business or professional women. It is that of deducting each year a fixed portion of your income and putting it aside in investments. Women with fixed incomes may de- cide at once whether they can spare $10, $20 or more per month. n de- ciding what they can spare, they should also look into the future and estimate their requirements.

That’s why Rumford is called the two-to-one leavener. That's the secret of the superior results of every Rumford baking. 62 laboratory tests in the process of manufacture make certain that every Rumford baking has the advantage of two-to-one leavening. For thi, reason a Rumford bake never has the sogginess and heaviness caused by leavening action which is delayed until exposed to oven heat. The dry, crumbly eakes and biscuits produced by the release of too much leavening gas in the mixing never occurs when Rumford is used. Rumford leavening is always perfect two-to-one leavening — the leavening which produces perfect results. Why not have these advantages in your baking?
