Having practically taken the polo coat and the polo shirt off the backs of the players, fashion observers watch not only the participants but also these smartly attired spectators, as a guide to currently smart clothes for country and spectator sportswear. Much favored is the suit of Shet- land, the heavier type of brogue of reversed calf or apparel. The fashionable Shetland pat- tern in the black and white, or brown and tan herringbone, made in a three-button, highe roll, notch-lapel model. ‘The husky-soled semi- brogue, brown calf shoe is an excellent cholce for the ine formal country outfit, while the companion sock is the wool rib hose with horizontal stripes.

Children Ballooning Spiders. BY LILLIAN COX ATHEY. OUNT it a loss if you do not witness the takeoff of one or more of these famous flyers, the original balloonists. They depend upon the wind for fuel and they go places! e of them en- Joy the trip so well that they forget to lighten their ballast and land, and 80 are carried far out to sea. They are canny, too. When they wish to descend they do not cast their ballast overboard, but feast upon it. How thrifty! You will notice that these aviators do not start on a jour- ney when the wind is too strong. That is wise, as you can see. Not that the traveler cares how fast he goes, but there is too much danger involved. ‘Young and old employ this method of traveling. An aerial voyage is their way of finding a new home site. The aeronauts are so clever that they turn their backs upon the wind when they are spinning out their silk cables. That will also show you the “way the wind is blowing.” You can see the balloonists at any time of the year, provided, of course, you find their chosen “take-offs” and become “ballooning-spider conscious.” Many find that they have been walk- ing among these famous balloonists for years and did not see them. there. All members of the family are harmless and none will become angry, even when you disturb their activities to see how the “machinery” works. As for caring whether they have an audience, that never enters their minds! So don’t cheat yourself out of witnessing a group of happy little spiders, as they jockey for a good place on a fence post or weed stem before manufacturing their cables— here, indeed, is the magic carpet. (Copyright, 1936.) Psychology BY DR. JESSE W. SPROWLS. A Mental Law. ARS ago, Woodrow Wilson, as president of Princeton University, discovered that the students who stud- led laboratory courses remembered more of what they learned than the boys who got their knowledge from books .alone. Other educators have found this to be a fact. So it comes today that the school teachers are talking about a8 new education—edu- cation through activity. This so-called new education fis nothing more or less than simply mak- ing the school fit the mind. Suppose, for example, you were looking for some word to use instead of the word mind. In other words, you are looking for a term people can understand. About the only understandable term you can find is personality. That term has meaning, because it implies an ex- pression of some sort—a bodily ex- pression, facial expression, voice, tem- perament, attitudes toward other per- sons, social situation, ambitions and Fence posts, tall weeds, stumps and such places are sought for the take- off field. The fiyer fastens his feet into the “platform.” His body is raised into the air at about 45 de- grees. His head is bowed. The spin- nerets get busy and the silk mill is going at full capacity. From the tip of the body silk threads are spun, and as they come in contact with the air they harden. Sometimes the cables are spun out so fine that you cannot see them except against a black back- ground. Inspection at this time, when many eables are in the air, will show you what an effort it is for the ballon- Wishing to descend, the travelér will begin shortening his sails and gradually will drift to the ground. The greatest height so far recorded 1s 150 feet. Much has yet to be dis- covered about these famous balloon- ists. Now is your chance to add your valuable findings. . The orbweavers, citigrades, salti- grades, tubeweavers and latergrades (some member of eaeh family you have met in this column), are all capable “fiyer.” The babies are just as expert as their parents. Whenever they wish to go places they balloon i 80 on. One might make a long list of such expressions. ‘Whatever the, list may be, it still conforms to that law of mental life called activity. That's where psychol- ogy begins and ends. (Copyright, 1936,) Held in Youth’s Death. MOUNT AIRY, N.

HE more Chatterer the Red Squirrel thought about the home of Spooky the Screech Owl the more that home seemed desirable to Chatterer. He kept thinking and thinking how it might be possible to drive Spooky out of that home, but for the life of him he coudin’t think of any way in which to do it. Then quite suddenly an idea was born. “Perhaps,” thought Chaterer, “I can make a trade with him. I wonder why I didn’t think of that before. This home of mine hére would suit Spooky just as well as the one he now has. All I have to do is to make him think that it will suit him a lit- tle better. I ought to be able to do that. If we trade homes and then later something happens to this tree that will be just Spooky’s hard luck. Of course, I won't hint that anything is likely to happen. In fact, I don't know that anything is likely to hap- pen. Probably nothing will happen, but if Spooky will trade I'll feel a lot easier in my own mind. After all, that house of his would suit me ex- actly as well as does this-one.

Off went Chatterer to the tree where Spooky the Screech Owl lived. He looked up at Spooky’s doorway, hop- ing that he might see Spooky's face therein. He didn't. You see, it was broad daylight and Spooky, who had been out all night, was down inside, Chatterer climbed the careful not to make ut it. You see, while Spooky is not very big, he has good- sized feet and strong, skarp-pointed, curved claws, for which Chatterer has the greatest respect. Chatterer climbed the tree and peeked inside. Of course that was a most impolite thing to do, but Chat- terer is an impolite, small person. Spooky was at home. Chatterer went out on a dead limb just above Spooky's doorway and began to call. He made @ great noise, for Chatterer can be a noisy fellow when he sets out to be. Presently Spooky’s head appeared in the doorway. He was blinking, for he was hardly awake. He looked cross. He was cross. Chatterer knew it by the way Spooky snapped his bill. It had a most unpleasant sound. “What's all this fuss about? What do you mean by making such a noise up in my treg? Can't you let a fellow sleep in peace?” demanded Spooky. “Oh, were you in there, asleep?” exclaimed Chatterer, just as if the thought had never occurred to him. “It is too bad if I wakened you, but now that you're awake, I'd like to talk to you.” it “Well, I don’t want to talk to you,” retorted Spooky. ‘“You're a nuisance.

He knew he could dodge around that trunk if Spooky really should come out and try to catch him. And Chatterer did a fool- ish thing. He lost his temper.

It was a Listerine Tooth Paste smile HERE'S nothing so alluring, or so disarming, as a smile that reveals lovely, flashing teeth. _You may think that the tooth paste you are now using gives you the utmost in results. But how can you be sure until you've compared these results to those of Listerine Tooth Paste? This is the remarkable dentifrice that so many lovely New York models and talented Hollywood stars—women who live by their smiles—use year in and year out. An Exclusive Formula Contained in Listerine Tooth Paste is a rare combination of cleansers found in no other dentifrice. Only three places in the world can produce them to our quality standards. A They sweep around and over the teeth, removing that thick, greasy, germ-laden coating that dulls the looks of tecth. When their work is done, the teeth stand revealed —immaculate, white, flashing, and brilliant. Professional beauties say there is nothing like it. Try It a Month . Merely because your present dentifrice tastes good does not mean that it is the best for you. Why not put it aside and try Listerine Tooth Paste for an entire month? At the end of that time you will note how much better your teeth look and how much healthier your gums and mouth feel. 4 LAMBERT PHARMACAL COMPANY St. Louis, Mo.
