He had count- ed on beechnuts to help make that layer of fat and there had been no beechnuts, or almost none. He had | counted on acorns to help mu€ that layer of fat and acorns had been very scarce. So Buster Bear was uneasy and he muttered to himself in his decp, rumbly-grum- bly voice: . “I don't know what I'm going to do.

Happy is the child whose mether realizes the magnificent educationul | opportunities of the kitchen and who is sufficiently serene as she goes about her duties not to be an- noyed by the ubiquitous little hands and feet and the inquisitive, de- manding little presence. For the Kitchen is the one place | left in the modern home where things really happen. The apartment | | house child and the city child have lost the broad education that comes Larn and garden. But the kitchen remains a scene of action. Here there iz a sink with shiny faucets from which the water runs hot and cold in fascinating streams. Here there is a stove where fire leaps up at the light of a match. On the miraculous stove things steam and boil and boil over. butter melts and fries in the pan to | hot. sputtering neises. Here there are containers of ev- ery size and shape, drawers cupboards filled with mysterious tins and packages. There are nests of pie and cake tins, cooking pots and pans of every gort, and potato mashers that come apart and can be put together again: flour sugar, salt and starch that look much the same out feel and taste | quite different.

London, Nov. 26 (M —Vested with a royal office dating from Norman times and entailing the most an- cient privileged rights accorded to a functionary of the King’s house- hold, the Lord Great Chamberlain of England, tixth of the great offi. cers of state in the United King- dom, is a woman. When Lord Carrington, Marquis of Lincolnshire, died last J8ne, leav- ing no “heir-male of his body” as the English statutes phrase it, his five daughters were declared to be co-heiresses to his office. By the decision of her sisters, Lady Lewisham, the third daughter, whose husband is Viscount Lewis- ham, son and heir of the Earl of Dartmouth, succeeded her father as Lord Great Chamberlain. The office is invested with nu- merous eeremonial cuties, chief of which is the responsibility for a rangements for all royal processions and functions of state such as the opening and closing of parliament by the sovereign, for which the Lord Great Chamberlain issues the tickets of admission, appoints a peer of his choice to carry the sword of state, and sees that the ritual of precedence is carefully carried out. In-view of his high office, he him- self occupies an impeortant place in the procession, walking to the right of the sword of state and next to the king. He also assists at the in- troduction of all newly-created peers into the house of lords and at the homage of all bishops after their consecration. Te him is entruated the charge of the palace of West- minster, and especially the house of lords itself, where his official effices are located. For a woman to execute the fune- tions of Lord Great Chamberlain, however, is still too unusual for British court dignitaries te aceept. At the recent opening of parliament, therefere, Lord Lewisham, wearing the key emblematic of the Lord Great Chamberlain’'s office, depu- tized for his wife, who looked on from the peeresses’ gallery. Health Hints BY DR. MORRIS FISHREIN Editor Journal of the American Medical Assoclation and of Hygeia, the Health Magazine Among more than 9,000 clerical workers employed in the home of- fice of a large insurance company there was 12,378 absences lasting one day or more in 1926 due to the common cold, influenza, bronchitis and tonsilitis. There were 1,345 absences for each year due to these diseases for every thousand men and women on the pay roll. For all other types of | disease, the figure was 1,632 ab- sences per thousand. Expressed in another way, coughs, Question: Docs the average person today live longer than people did 100 years ago? Answer: In the 17th century the average age at death was 33 years; in 1855, the average age at death in Massachusetts and in New York was 40; in 1920, the average age at death in 24 states was 56. cent of all illness reported among clerical workers in any year. About five working days are lost for every clerk each year because of respira- tory discases. Rate Among Women The women employes have a much ‘lllgher absence rate because of sick- ness than do men employes, exceed- ing the rate for men by 78 per cent. For respiratory diseases alone, the absence rate of women is 54 per cent | higher than that of men. The | figures for this insurance company may be duplicated in any large con- cern employing numbers of people. Investigators are convinced at present that the control of respira- tory diseases by the ordinary | metheds of preventive medicine is extremely difficult under modern conditions of civilization in which large numbers of people are con- stantly thrown into intimate com- tacts, assembling the great crowds at entertainments and sports, eating in | tremendous eating laces, traveling to (and from their places of employ- ment. A single germ cause for the cold l'of daily familiarity with workshop, | has net been determined at present, investigators inclining rather to the belief that various germs which may produce these symptems aré con- stantly in the nose, throat and respiratory tract generally, and that they seize upon the body when it is in a poor condition to repist disease.

Mengarini, is shown with Premier Mussolin{ and her bust of the Duce, recently done by official orders. Among her works is & War Memorial that was unveiled by the King and the facade of the new Ministry of Justice in Rome is a tribute to her ckill. The insert is a close-up of the sculptress, New Yeork, Nov. 26.—"The mod- ern woman is to be admired, theugh too often she is very superficial.” That is the opinion of Fausta Vittoria Mengarini, herself a mod- ern, and the ofifcial sculptress of Italy. Mme. Mengarini, recently arrived in America, has an exhibi- tion at the Art Center. “It §s not our fault If some of us are spperficial” she continued. “If toe many women acquire a surface sophistication, a surface knowledge and patter, without learning to think deeply, they are not altogether to blame. “It is because our freedom {s o new. We have had to fight for every inch of ground and use up our energies in catching up with men’s opportunities,. The woman ef tomorrow will have noe handi- caps whatever. This generation's women have not had time to diz deeply into their brains and put them thoroughly to work.” A Good Fight Mme. Mengarini really speaks for Italian feminists. Kor she her- selt waged a stiffer fight for wo- men than American women have tasted for a long time. At 18 she wanted to enter the Fine Arts Academy. It was pre- posterous, at that #ime, for a girl to attend public classes. But her father, an influential Senator and eminent seientist, arranged it. She was the only girl student among 6,000 males. For the sake of con- ventions she was chaperoned to classes every day by a chamber- maid. Lser, In an art competition to which she submitted a model un- der a masculine pseudonym, she won the award but was denied it, because she was a woman' Fortunately Mme, Mengarini's family approved of her career. In fact, 40 years ago her mother was a mild scandal because she | had insisted on an education. The ! University of Rome had refused her—because &he was a woman. But $§hrough a compromise she had been permitted to attend biology classes by concealing herself be- hind a curtain so the male <|\14 dents should not be aware of presence! Times Have Changed “Of course Italy has since mother’s time,” Mme. | garini smiled. “Women may | tend universities and uow. But there's still Men- at- art her | | changed udice. Through my whole career I've felt it. At heart many Jtal. fans felt if you are bern a lady and insist on working, somehow you no longer are a lady.” { Mme. Mengarinl, however, does not seem to have been retarded much. She has just forged ahead and won the highest art honors a woman ever won in her country. Her bust of Mussolini was done by official orders. Her War Memorial was unveiled by the King. Her sculptural decorations adorn the facade of the new Ministry of Jus- tice in Rome. Her latest govern- ment commission was the wmodel for a lighthouse to be built in the harbor at Massana. The Land of the I'ree “I have come to America be- cause I know it to be the land of women’s opportunities,” she ex- plained. ‘T know I shall enjoy working here.
