BY FIORENCE LA GANXE. Everywhere she went Nancy heard tales of want and suffering. Havi been a member of two or three char boards for a number of years, she wa quite familiar with tales of woe, but never had she been so moved as she was this year. She knew from Peter that business was looking up, but that did not ease the situation for the time being. Too many reserves had been used, too many people were so close to the edge that it would take more than & week or two of prosperity to bring them back to & feeling of security. Food was needed, money for Tent was needed, but clothes were of almost pri- mary importance. Nancy was sure she had stripped her | closet. But after a particularly harrow- ing board meeting, she went back re- solved to give up everything which she did not absolutely need She found she had put away underwear of Joan's, thinking perhaps she might be able to wear it next year. This went into her charity box. Shoes, hats, gloves, stockings, negligees which she had half decided to give up found their way into the box She did not include partially worn finery, fancy slippers nor things which were obviously for party wear, but she did take the slippers and their like to & second-hand store. From the small sum she received for this and for that ghe purchased a few sensible garments. These went into the box She even included & few of Baby Sue's sacques and unnecessary kimonos. And as for her husband's cast-off clothing— she worked on his sympathy so that he | said first thing he knew he would have to apply to the charities himself. But at least two families were warmer and better clothed because Nancy had been kind and thoughtful (Copyright, 1932) Curried Lentils.

UCH small, compact writing fre- | quently denotes & writer who has | aptitude for things of a scientific nature. In this instance, the in- | dication is probably correct as the simplicity and clearness of the writ- ing seem to bear it out. This scientific interest may not be devoted to the realms of physics and chemistry alone, but would perhaps express itself in his | manner of attacking any problem. He | would probably seldombe swayed by | his emotions, but would consider every aspect of any situation in a coldly dis- interested way. This does not mean,| however, that he is unkind or incon-| siderate, for his family and friends may know him as a very courteous, though- ful person. | The formation of the “d™ with no| final down stroke, Jeads us to believe he | is & bookish type. He perhaps is par- | ticularly interested in reading matter that has to do with the cultural de- velopment of the world. In this group he probably classes history, biography and philosophy. His one deviation per- haps would be in his keen delight in de- tective stories. They may be the only | | true fiction that he reads, attracting| ! him because of the opportunity they | offer for ferreting out the answer to & problem. He would probably never be content at any kind of routine work. Instead, he would perhaps be an outstanding | success if allowed to use his own ideas | | and put them into force. Though they | might seem revolutionary at times, he | would possibly astound his associates | by his achievements. | | " vigorous out-of-door exercise would | probably afford him keen pleasure. | Horseback riding and tennis might be | favorites, offering an opportunity for | him to acquire skill in an interesting | pursuit. | Note—Analysis of handwriting is mot an exact science, according to world in- vestigators. but all_agree it is interesting and lots of fun.

Depression a Test Time DorothyDix Wives ISTEN, wives. These be the times that try women’s souls and tem- pers and show the stuff of which they are made. Most of you are walking through the Slough of Despond, and unless you watch your step you are going to lose in it something that is a lot more valuable %o you and more necessary to your happiness than your stocks and bonds. You are going to lose your husband's love and respect, and when that is gone, it is gone forever. You can't recaver it, as you can your fortune. Of course, there are plenty of women who are meeting the situation with a high eourage and who hide their fears and anxieties in their own hearts and turn a smiling face upon their husbands. They make a joke of having to do without the things they have been accustomed to and spice the plainest meal with laughter and good cheer. They are the good sports who stand by their men in hard times as they have stood by them in rosperity, and who fight shoulder to shoulder with them to the last ditch. ever & whimper out of them or a complaint. THER! are plenty of other wives who have not been able to stand the gaff and who, in the test that this depression has subjected them to, have shown themselves cowards and quitters. Yellow through and through. They have howled to high heaven because they could not have the pretty clothes and jewels and good times and fine cars that their husbands have lavished upon them for years. They have whined and complained over every hardship they had to endure. They have wept and lamented over their misfortunes. Worse still, they have ceaselessly reproached their husbands with having lost their money, or their jobs, or for not being able to get work. These wives take the last particle of hope and spirit out of a man, who is already at the breaking point, and send him to the suicide's grave, or else they kill his belief in himself so completely that he never has the nerve to make another struggle against adverse fate. I doubt if any man ever really gives up as long as he knows his wife has faith in him and as long as she is cheering him on and pouring her own optimism and courage into him. OF course, the hard times are as hard on women as they are on men, Perhaps they are harder, because Women not only have to endure all the hardships and the fear of want for themselves and their children that their husbands are undergoing, but they have, in addition, to put up with the irritability of men whose nerves are fretted and who are plunged fathoms deep in morbid gloom. What if such a man is unreasonable and cross and cantankerous and hard to live with! What if he is as depressing as a wet blanket over the family circle! Surely a wife should have enough intuition to understand that all the furies are tearing at the man’s soul and that his tempers are Just his crying out in agony. URELY, if there ever was a time for wives to be patient and forgiving and tender and loving, it is now. Surely, if there ever was a time for ‘wives to nail on their faces a smile that won't come off, it is now. Surely, if there ever was a time for wives to buck their husbands up with their faith and keep them cheered with their optimism, it is now. DOROTHY DIX. SONNYSAYINGS BY FANNY Y. OORY.

OKLAHOMA'S blind Senator Gore is| losing no time in getting back into | | the swing of things on Capitol Hill | after an absence of 10 years. | Already he | given evidence that | the ready wit and |infectious geod | humor that made him in former days one of the Senate's most likable per- | sonalities have not left him. On and \§ off the floor he is % much the same. The blind Bena- tor's streng point lies in his sudden interruptions of more or less seri- ous debate with witly observations. He has a knack of saying such things often in just a sentence—at a time when everybody gets a laugh. Of husky build, with snow white hair | and erect figure, he is imposing when | he shows these short flashes of wit in debates. And there is an almost con- cealed smile of misehief on his face. He brought loud guffaws from every one the other day with one of his gay observations while Pat Harrison was | twitting Senator Fess of Ohlo for his advice to the Republican National Com-~ mittee that they go out and “sell Presi- | dent Hoover” 'to the Natlon as they did in 1928. The Mississippian suggested that the | Republicans were ‘“selling Hoover short.” | “Selling him short?” chortled Gare. | “It’s & bear raid.” | Gore was accidentally blinded before | he reached his ’teens. HBefore that he | was inclined to be sad and gloomy. But | after he became blind he was noticeably lighthearted. He is still that way. | Friends say that he is seldom, if ever, | downhearted. | sit in the Senate. At present there is another—Senator Schall of Minnesota —also blinded by an accident, but much later in life, Hearing the Congressional Record read while & boy created in Gore the desire to become a Senator. And when he was retired in 1921, he predicted that he would some day come back. So firmly did he believe it that as | the time he scribbled his prediction on |a card and slipped it into a crack of his desk. One of the first things he did upon his return to the chamber was to have the sergeant at arms find the desk and extract the card. Honey Jumbles.
