Plainly he had expected me to be sulky and unwilling to accept Edith's aid. My prompt falling in with his plans had disconcerted him. I knew that by a sudden letting down of his exalted manner. Dicky Phones Edith He walked to the telephone with- out further colloquy and asked for his office number. And, though I was filled with glee at his discom- fiture, of which I now was sure, I could not help clinching my fingers in my palms at the tone of his voice as he talked to her. “'Lo Ede, how's the girl. Yes, just got in—that is, only an hour or two ago. This is the first chance I've had to telephone. How's ever: thing? Good!

Instead I managed quite a creditable smile as I took the re- ceiver from his hand and . cooed into the mouthpiece: “Oh, Ede, get ready to say yes in your prettiest manner. I have much need of thee.

Of all of these none ssems to be much more important than is fodine. The normal human body of one contains about one-tenth of a zram of this substance. Most of the fo- dine in the human body comes in by way of eggs. milk, bread, wine, water and zir and it is deposited {in the thyroid glund The thyroid with two lobes the windpipe. {gland are little low material known as them.

The iodine in the body represents {about four hundred thousandths of one per cent of the body weight. All |of the iodine in the body equ therefore about onc-tenth of a grain and this is to be round for the smost part in the thyroid gland | The interesting discovery made within the last quarter cen- |tury that the frequency of goiter in many locahties was duc to the fact that children did not receive iodine regularly in their food. True. they were eating the food sub- stances suppos:d to contain iodin: but the iodine itself had to come from the soil into the food sub- stances eaten by the children or gland is on organ in the throat ov a yel- colloid 4n (hundred and fifty pounds weight ! was | into the food substances eatéen by the chickens that provided the eggs or by the cows that provided the milk. Studies are now being made of the soil of the various states in our country and remarkable varia- tions are found in mineral content. Thus | in areas near the seashore there are considerable quantities of iodine and this substance is pro- fuse in seaweed. But as one gets farther from the shore there is less iodine, although areas on mountain slopes not too far in may again have more ijodime than those be- tween the shoge and the: mountain, In the Great Lakes area and iIn the far northwest which are fed by glacier waters the lodine is small in amount and in these regions in our country goiter is most preva- lent. Todine is then one of the most important substances in the body even though the amount necded is lets than one part per billion. Ex- act studies of the soils of various places should be made with a view to supplying the deficiencles pérhaps at their source. In many communitiés through the advice of family physicians, through ' schools and through public health officials the public has been instructed as to the necessity of providing proper amounts of lodine to insure the prevention of simple goiter. The deficlency is made up by the use of solutions containing iodine, or fodized salts, and of special tab. lets containing lodine. Already there is a lessened amount of goiter in these communities. A LONELY YOUNGSTER By Alice Judson Peale “We live in a big apartment house and my little hoy has no one to play with. When I take him to the park he is so shy that he does not make friends. I think he would love to play with children but he doesn’t know how. “He spends most of his time out of doors standing with a wistful expression on his face, watching the other children laughing and calling to each other as they race up and down the pavement on their kiddie cars and scooters. 1 feel so sorry for him. But kindergarten is out of the question and, until he is old enough to go to school, 1 suppose nothing can be done about it.” Perhaps your child is one of those [1onely little youngsters who docs not 20 to kindergarten, who has ne cne to play with. and no way of mak- ing friends for himself. What can you do for him? You can do a great deal. You can make contacts with the mothers of the likaly looking children you see in the park. You might now and again plan special trips to such places as the zoo or the merry-go- round, and invite one or two of these .children to come with you. | On rainy days call in somie child who lives in your apartment bulld- ing. His mother will be charmed to let him have a change. of scene. and the children will have a good time if you give them a proper chance. Leave them alone together | 8ce to it that they have the sort of play materials which suggest coop- erztive play—big floor blocks, tr#ns, dolls and housekeeping_toys. When you have done what you can to provile your child with olayfeliows, be ready still occasion- ally to step into the breach. Be a child yourself now and then. Play his games with him and follow his lead. Be his companion as well as his mother.

A perfect dress is often completely apoiled by an injudicious choice of shoes and the couturier must, there- fore, attach as great an importance to footwear as, for example, to hat: and to follow the efforts of boo makers with the closest attention. The extraordinary fantasy to be found nowadays in accessories— due to the muititude created during the last few years—resulted in an almost disastrous influence on the efforts of the “bottier de luxe.” Bome of the lesser accessories may, at times, be allowed to differ alto- gether from the prevailing note of the ensemble. This is absdlutely tabeo, however, where shoes are concerned. Line, cut and color play Just an important a part here as in dress. In other words, shoes are intimately related to the color scheme whereas other accessuries, such as jewelry, are for that matter superfluities and sometimes can even be considered intrusions. General Harmony Important Tdo not think shoe elegange re- sides either in detail work or dec- orative effects. A shoe is not nec- essarily smart because it repro- duces a detail of the dress. It must harmonize more generally with the dress. Style is rually the important point. To accompany a morning or sports suit a shoe must necessar- ily be very simple in line and col- oring like the suit itself. A few brogue effects are permitted, evi- dently. Women seem to show a ency to wearing light shoes for the afternoon. This is all right so0 long as the colors are discreet and if the color of the shoes matches exactly that of the frock. Beiges and grays are al- ways good but it must be borne In mind that certain shades now seen in dyed kid are veritable catas- trophies. The only really pretty and satisfactory shades are to be found in the color ranges of beige and gray. The dull finish of antelope is attractive in afternoon shoes be- sides Dbeing distinguished in ap- pearance. tend- Satn Shoes for Tea Hour A great number af women are seen these days waaring satin shoes for the tea hour. This in- dicates, I think, their desire to look *“dressed” for this function, because until now satin shoes were exclusively reserved for the evening. This is not the only correlation to be found with dress so far as shoes are concerned. We are sure-. ly reverting to the era of real “haute couture” that prevailed in pre-war days and this movement also can be traced in the boot- makers’ models. We now see the master “bottiers” insisting less on decoration but more on style and line. Crepe Slipper Has Elegance This also applies to the evening shoe, wherein satin is now replac- ed by crepe de chine. The ele- gance of a crepe slipper resides in its cut and then in its dull sur- face. Lamc shoes, obviously. are worn with lame gowns, but I al- most prefer a white crepe slipper. The beach shoe has now attain- ed an important place in the col- lection of a shoe creator. At first decorative attempts were inclined to lose scheme and also the function of this footwear. Today, the beach shoe is practical, comfortable and in harmony with the beach suit. Very sober trimmings, if any, and an absolute absence of eccentric- ity mark the creationa. colored | Menus for the Family By Mrs. Alexander George Salmon for Di Salmond salad, creamed peas and potatoes, bread, cherry conserve, sliced pineapple, spiced cake, frost- led, iced tea or coffee.
