The inauguration will be similar to those of former Presidents, including a proces- sion from the White House to the Capitol, the taking of the oath at the east front of the Capitol, the return procession to the White House and an ‘The military units which have been brought to this city during the last few weeks by the Federal Government WHIS PEPLUM JACKET SUIT OF BLACK CREPE SILK IS WORN AS A DRESS WITH A SLEEVELESS | day psychology refutes the whole idea. | rest.

Everyday Psychology BY DR. JESSE W. SPROWLS. Nigthmare. Some psychologists assume nightmares belong to a special class of dreams. According to looking at the question, ordinary | dreams refer to events which the indi- | vidual has some time or other actually | experienced: nightmares refer to events | which were experienced by our re- mote ancestors. For example, you dream, or rather nightmare, that you are being pur- | sued by a ferocious animal, the like | of which you know does not exist. This | ancester ‘theory holds that some un- known ancsstor did actually have a similar experience and that this ex- | perience left its traces in his nervous | system. You inherited the said ances- | tor’s nervous system, and, of, course, the | tendency to relive the experience that was laid down in it. | _This is the famous recapitulation theory. 1 suppose one should regard it as an infamous theory, for present- | It is now supposed that nightmares | are really not different from ordinary dreams, so far as their origins are con- nary dreams, refer to one’s personal | experiences. | Just as some of your waking thoughts | stir up more fearful emotions than | others, so do some of your sleeping thoughts stir up more fear than others. | | Those night images which are at- tended by noticeably fearful situations | are called nightmares. All the others | are merely called dream: | . If this second theory is not correct, how do you account for the fact that 'some of vour dreams are actually so pleasantly toned that they awaken you quite as readily as do the so-called nightmares?

He never | says a kind word to me or gives me a smile and is so glum and gloomy that XI dread the time when he comes home from work. I have tried every way I know | to keep peace and make things pleasant, but all in vain. He earns a good salary, | but he only allows me $5 a week for food, and I have to scrimp to save until I am nearly frantic. If I go over this amount there is a grand row. He has never given me $10 worth of clothes since I have been married. My sisters have clothed me and the baby. I have pleaded with him to get me a washing machine, as I am not strong, but he refused and bought a radio for himself.

An excellent homemade lotion for this purpose may be made as follows: One ounce honey, one ounce glycerin, two ounces rose water, one dram essence of white rose, one-half ounce cologne water, Shake well. Do not bite your lips or wet them with your tongue, as this will aggravate the condition. Those who sleep with the mouth open and those who are sub- ject to colds in the head are very often bothered with dry, chapped lips. See my kmk on the subject appearing next week.

Nancy wondered how she would like 8 dish of pan-broiled ham served with sauteed pineapple. She decided to try it anyway.

It is encouraging to have new hair coming in all the time, even though it does not seem to be as strong as it should be. There are ingredients | in the tonic that counteract any drying effect of the alcohol and by weaken- ing that part of it you lose somewhat of the needed stimulation. Dryness of the scalp comes from sluggishness, so any stimulation helps it. Massage every | day to get blood circulating and use the tonic two or three times a week. E.

Why should they be so much more considered than doorways? Yet they are. There must be a latent reali- zation that the glass through which we look, with no lrechl thought of pride, was a matter of great pride to our for- bears of several generations back. In some countries during this present cen- tury persons were taxed wcmfllnh‘m the number of panes of glass in their windows and that today many English homes of a past decade have windows boarded up, with the glass permanently removed, because of taxable quali- ties of such a supposed luxury. ‘Those who place an unnecessarily heavy glass curtain across the surface of their windows, except to hide an ugly View, would have been thought strange indeed by the ones to whom much of the glamour of glass was the fact that IS GENERALLY 'DICTATED BY THE it was transparent. If what lies beyond the window is beautiful, the object should be to veil without obscuring it. The light of a room should be softened but not dimmed by curtaining. How to hang sheer curtaining so that its falling in graceful and uniform folds is assured is a problem well solved by the French. A banding of lace is sus- Pended by loops to a rod. Sewed to the ower edge of the lace, in carefully reg- ulated gathers or pleats, the net, lace or other soft fabric is allowed to fall its full length. Its folds are not sub- ject to the occasional laundering or the shifting on the curtain rod. The effect is of a “well tailored” window. Outside of the somewhat laborious lam- is no manner of sus- pending glass curtains which is as sure as this. It has this advantage: It does not involve the exgendlmre necessary to the fashionable lambrequins and it can be accomplished by any housewife who plies a needle, however slightly, (Copyright, 1930.) promise of divine deliverance. And both coming through the lips of the same prophet, uttered almost in the same breath, God's threatenings are always ac- companied with a revelation of the way of escape. The ark is always shown along with the flood. Zoar is pointed out when God foretells Sodom’'s de- struction. The brazen serpent is rearcd where the venomous snakes bite and sting. With every warning of the pen- alties of sin, we are assured of God's mercy and forgiving grace. ‘Who of us are free from sin? “There is none righteous.” “All we like sheep have gone astray.” How terrific is the indictment the Bible brings against our race: “Being filled with all unright- eousness, wickedness, covetousness, ma- liciousness; full of envy, murder, deceir, malignity; whisperers, backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, in- ventors of evil things, disobedient to p;flenu." Can any of us plead not ty? 'u"l ywlll punish them.” Who of us can uestion the justice of this sentence of ajvmo judgment? God's act in punish- ment is not an arbitrary judgment upon us, It corresponds to, and is the inevitable outcome of, our act of trans- gression. “They which commit such things are worthy of death.” “I will ransom them.” Thus does divine love set a rainbow of hope in the dark cloud of our sin. “The wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our rd.

Perhaps Marie Antoinette never said it, but the historians used to tell us that when she was told that the down- trodden people of Paris were in misery because they had no bread to eat, she said, “Then why don't they eat cake?” The comment was told to show just what a light-headed, unsympathetic creature_the wife of Louis XVI really was, it seems that there are women i Paris today, some of them visiting Americans, who hold to Marie Antoinette's ideas concerning cake as a substitute for bread. Bread, you know, is terribly dear just at present in Prance. There is enormous concern about it and many people have given up bread as a mat- ter of economy or as a protest against the high price.
