MAGA ZINE PAGE Promotion of Sleeping Comfort BY LYDIA LE BARON WALKER. A BEDSTEAD FOSITIONED BY A W OF AIR 1S GOOD. HERE are certain adjustments in the arrangements of furnilure for Summer comfort which cam be made at any time without in- | volving more trouble than they are worth in the hot season. More- over, these are things which. though the 'Summer months are far spent, seem too important to let go. One | of them is the placing of a bed- | stead so that it is not out of the| range of any welcome breezes which | may blow. Even if this means that the room is not quite <o decoratively attrac- tive, comfort snould not be sacrificed to | appearances. To lose sleep for want of & good circulation of air, when one ean be had, is futile. It unfits one for work or for the enjoyments of the -coming day, and the arrangement of the furni- ture fails to please, however good 1t | may be. Of course, in the replacement of the bedstead the best arrangement of the | other pieces of furniture in the roem should be carefully considered. Som:- times the new scheme proves as satis- | factory as the original one. One wom- | ders, ihen, why the bedsiead never was %0 placed before. | Where there are two or more windows in a room giving an opportunity cross-currents of air, put the bed: where these currents will pass over it. | In Winter this would ‘be unwise, but in | Summer it is advisable. Where win- dows come on one side of & room only for | ead | INDOW WIIERE THE CIRCULATION put the bedst.ad where there will be a draught between them and he entrance door or the door to some oiher room. Do not put the bedstead in the cor- ner of a room, not in Summertime. Corners without windows in nearby walls are the hottest parts of a room. In rocms where a door inust be kept open in order to get draughts of air sufficient privacy can be secured the oe- cupant by. having a en curtain. These screens are made the width of the door and the {yame and reach higher tham one’s vision at the top, and at the | bottom they leave zbout 18 inches free. Sew curtain rings to the corners and put small brass hooks in the side of the door frame for the rings-to slip over. It is well to have one or (wo rings with their corresponding hooks evenly spaced between the top and boitom ones. This screen curlain is used only when needed (o sccure the wanted privacy. 1t takes but a moment {0 put it up or take it down. Ii is always on the side of the door frame o which tae hinges are ot attached, so that the door, when opened, swings away from it. It is true that some of the draughis are shut off by =& screen curtain, but half at least can get in abeve and below it, wirtch : far better than shutting them off en- tirely, as would heppen when the door was closed. If the curtain is of mate- rial matching that used in other ways in.the rocm 1t will not dstract frem the decoration.

EAR MISS DIX: I am affectionate by nature, but my wife has no more sentiment in her make-up than Grant's tomb. She is an excellent cook, & good housekeeper and easy on the pockethook, but cold as an Eskimo's Christmas. I love her dearly in spite of the blizzard, but sometimes get a bit discontented. This part worries me. We have been married but five years—but will my love grow cold in spite of my temperament in this frigid atmosphere? = An orchid cannot thrive in an igloo, and one-way love, like a one-way street, is not my idea of the proper highway for life’s journey. My wife is my ideal but for this one defect. Her Labrador kisses and don't-be-silly attitude make me wonder if she loves me at all or is just putting up with a bad bargain. What do you think? CHARLIE. A NSWER—If there is any way of defrosting & human refrigerator I have never heard of it. There are just men and women who are constitu- tionally at zero anc nothing seems to warm them up. Whether these men and women are really capable of any normal man-and-woman feeling I do not know. Of course, they say they are and that they love as deeply as any one, only they are not demonstrative by nature and cannot show their feelings. . Probably this is often true, but it isn't a great deal of comfort to be scientifically convinced that some one you care deeply for really does entertain a hidden affection for you, if it is never shown to you. VWHEN we love a person we want some Tesponse. We want the tender assurance of it continually in tne spoken word. We want kisses that are warm with passion, not a flabby peck on the cheek. We want to see that the beloved one thrills at our coming, not an indifferent, bored welcome. Marriage is turned into cinders, ashes and dust for millions of women who are married to good men who give them everything on earth they want except what they want most of all—love. These women are always writing me about how barren their lives are and how they hunger and thirst for a few words of praise, a caress, some indication that their hus- bands still care for them. UT this heart-hunger is not exclusively a feminine complaint. Men suffer from it just as women do. They want their wives to show that they love them. They want to be petted. They want to be told that they are still heroes of their wives’' girlish dreams and that their wives feel that their marriage means more to them than just a business partnership. - The pity of it is that there seems to be no way to tell beforehand what is the normal temperature of the one you are marrying so that the effectionate could avoid getting the undemonstrative and the icicles be left to mate and congeal together.

But there have always been prophets of all sorts, ready and eager to_forecast anything and every- thing. For every true prophet there must be some ten thousand false ones “It can't be done.” Back in pler’s time such false prophets ac- tually refused to Jook through his tele- scope. Bruno declared that the sun was the center of the universe. False prophets thought otherwise and burned him at the stake. The crop of false prophets never fails. Today I read of high-minded men who declare that science is about to destroy civilization. False prophets! Civiliza- tion is & question of insight plus faith. Insight first, If civilization is to amount to anything it will be because of sci- ence. The civilization that cannot look facts in the face isn't worth per- petuating. Those prophets who know nothing but lore are false. Those who have a genius for putting related facts together become the inventors, the true prophets. Every invention is a eollection of fac! every collection of inventions a eivili- zation. The prophet who doesn't un- derstand these premises will continue to deal in lore. (Copsright, 1932.) Your Baby and Mine Cross Period. BY MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED. LMOST every baby, no matter how healthy, seems to have one cross period every day. It arrives oftenest between 4 and 6 in the afternoon. There are often some definite reasons for the baby’'s restless wails. With the nursing baby, the scantiest feeding is very apt to be the afterncon eme.. The amount of breast milk fluctuates with each feeding. The late afternoon nursing, One may easily determine whether faction. because of the mother's fatigue, is coin- cident with baby's audible dissatis- this is true by weighing the baby before and after each feeding in the day.

There are other reasens than under- nourishment which may occasion the afternoon screams. If the baby is im- oibing a very ricn breast or cows’ milk, there may tend to be an accumulation of fat in the stomach during the late afternoon. Fat is a slowly digested ele- ! ment. Water, sugar, and proteins leave tne stomach first, fats last. If a feed- ing is given to baby belore the fat | from the preceding feeding has left the ! stomach, there wilt be more fat to wrestle with, By the end of the day this aecumulation may mean a real &igestive burden.

It must convey the greatest sense of pleasure to the taste, with little sense of fullness.” These are, indeed, the essentials of the hot-weather dessert, and we find, in fact, that gelatin, custards, ices and ice creams are gen- erally favored dur- ing the Summer months. Combined with these, the Summer fruits give their delicious and characteristic fla- vors. What can be more acceptable to finish & meal on & hot day than. for instance, jellied peaches, Traspberry custard, blackberry ice or strawberry ice_cream? Chilled fresh fruits, served indi- vidually or in combination, are almost universally liked, and many a hostess uses them several times during the week with the approval of the family. Canned pineapple and peaches may be kept in the refrigerator and will always be ready to make the fresh fruits €o further when unexpected guests arrive. If there is whipping cream in the re- frigerator it can quickly be beaten, col- ored with fruit juice and used as a garnish for the glass dishes filled with the cold berries and whatever fruits are on hand.

A Toisy, restless group of younger people is responsible for this because they have flouted all that came out of the past simply because it was old. 'To these misguided young folk to be old fashion- ed was unthinkable and to be new, “modern” of all things the most de- sirable. Life goes forward from generation to generation and it would be sad indeed if each period did not make its con- tribution to the whole accomplishment of time. It would be sadder if any generation had it in its power to dis- card permanently anything of good the race had gathered thrcugh the years. There is no danger of this hap- pening because good has the quality of etérnity and whatever of good we achieve stays. ‘What is good?

I would count temperance one of the chief of old fashioned virtues and I would strongly advise that it be taught lall from birth to old age.

ODAY I have another letter from an adult, who has a story of childhood to tell: “Dear Uncle Ray: As I read one of your Saturday Talks, I felt the urge to tell you about a faith- ful dog, which was my playmate when I was a child. His name was Carlo and ‘he was a shepherd dog. “We lived on a farni. It was my job to go on a pony and drive our COws to the barn to be milked. “The farmers of that district had no fences around their crops, but all joined together in paying a herd boy on the prairie to keep- the cattle out of the grain. Sometimes the herd boy would drop to sleep and the cows would get in the corn. “There was a slight hill between our cornfleld and the house, but if the cows got in the field we could hear them breaking through the stalks, and we would call to Carlo and would tell him to go quickly to get the cows out of the corn. He would go away like a streak, and in a very short time we would hear the cowbells jingling. Then | we would know that the -cows would get their Leels nipped unless they left the field. The boy would wake up, covu UNCLE RAY. Care of The Evening Star, Washingten, D. C. printed_direct rules of tiie club and the 1933 mem! self-addressed, stamped envelcpe. are good.

OUR CHILDREN BY ANGELO PATRL | The young people who like to think | of themselves as modern and so feel | called upon to seore the old and honor- able teachings of their fathers are sow- ing the seed of sorrow and the parents | and teachers who stand by helplessly | must feel somewhat responsible for the results. It is we who have to defend !the ancient landmarks, uphold what of good we know and direct the chil- dren toward better ends. I believe it Was our own excesses, our own disre- gard of standards, of simplicities, that | misled the young pecple who have made this mistake. We are suffering for our sins and the best thing for us to do now is to pick ourselves up out of the ashes, admit our error and start afresh, this time taking the children with us along the straight and narrow way, bare and hard though it be. Teach the children to honor the truth wherever they meet it. Teach them that service to one’s fellows should come first in one's thoughts. Point out {o | them that the purest selfishness is that which considers._ itself last. To that one all else is added and he becomes wealthy, powerful, serene through that which he surrendered. He gains in power as he serves. This is no lesson for babies.. It is meat for strong men. We who have | been through the stress and storm of life know its implications and its full power. When we turn from duty we Iace pain. When we clutch we lose. When we are intemperate that which | we value most turns to dust and ashes. | B2 as modern as we will, we can pro- gress only by the old road of good and that means we discard only the use- less from our experiences and hold fast ;:goczlhn which we have proven to bz { good.
