It's one those long-planned schemes that is being put through in It a had hurry been on account dreamed of of the warg, years and might have remained a dream for 20 more if it hadn't been for the war.
war has come and the war will go, but the road will still be there. To Alaska, Perhaps Farther People le will drive to Alaska in our life and time, and perhaps, who knows, some day across to Siberia. Of the horrors of war we have heard plenty; it is good to hear something of the wonders war is going And to there bring aboutother blessing that I hope is going to come attached to something most of us regard as a curse. To take the curse first, that's the necessity for our limited use of cars. The blessing to be hoped for is that the share-the-car movement will take us back in hearts to the old days almost everybody used 1 to plane to share their good fortune in possessing a car.
If anyone went on a long drive in those days, that was an adventure and a luxury and it was cus- THE WAR BRINGS tomary to fill up the extra seats with people who didn't have a car. If you lived some distance from town, you just naturally asked people to go with you when you went marketing. And then came the days when it seemed as if almost everyone had a car and used it freely. Some 'families had two, three and four cars, and each member used his own as if it were a bicycle. When we invited people it was more for their company than the sense of doing them a service.
Tires Given Out Now those days are gone. Not forever. But for long enough so that we may become more thoughtful again. Maybe it will take us a little time to adjust. Yesterday I met a friend the market who used to have a car.
I subconsciously thought of her as having that car parked around the corner and chatted with her and went on my way, It wasn't until I was getting dinner at night that something floated back into my mind her tires have given out, she has no car. I could given her a lift towards home, have, I hadn't. I felt actually sick. Well, 1 if the war makes us more conscious of the other person's needs, it will not have been wholly in vain, will it? DIET AND HEALTH By LOGAN CLENDENING, M.D. We have some bitter complaints these, or days Navy, about but rejections there is for always the a good reason for what the services do even if the examining doctor doesn't have time to explain it to the selectee at the moment of examination.
I heard a new angle the other day. A man had applied for the submarine service and was perfect physically in every way except that he had some dental bridge work which caused them to turn him down. He couldn't seem to reconcile this with the eternal scheme of things, nor could I until a Navy medico explained to me that effective gripping of the mouthpiece of the submarine escape apparatus, or "lung," will be interfered with if crowns, bridges, dentures or even pyorrhoea are present, which seems reasonable. Bad Breath Causes Rejection Halitosis is also a cause for rejection in submarine service, which I also can understand: If you are cooped up in a small space with a fellow with bad breath it would lead, in my case, to mutiny. The Navy stresses vision and the Army feet: "No arches- no The greatest consideration, however, in the examination of any selectee is the saving of government money after the war from pensions.
In this field I see a great improvement over the selection in the last war, especially of those who have tuberculosis. In 1917 were boards set up to examine all draftees for tuberculosis, but they did their work in such an incredibly careless way that thousands of men with active tuberculosis were accepted. They often developed acute symptoms and broke down before they had been in the weeks. Those who active symptoms in France and had to be cared for Army sanitaria cost the government millions of dollars. Most people even with active tu- We, the Women There'll Be a New Victory Model of Woman Before the War Ends BY RUTH MILLETT Before this war is over there is sure to emerge a Victory Model Woman as well as victory model commodities of all, sorts.
Victory Model Woman won't 100 glamorous in the pre-war meaning of the word. She'll be a neat, well turned out job but there won't be much material or effort wasted on trimmings. You won't run into her at afternoon bridge parties or Ruth Millett at women's clubs 'that dabble in culture. You will be apt to find her in a defense plant, laboratory, government office, a kitchen that isn't just a place to open cans, or a WAAC or WAVES training camp. You will recognize her without any trouble, for she will be doing her job skillfully and with little waste motion.
Her man may be thousands of miles away from her, but you won't find her feeling sorry for herself. Whatever her financial or social group, she won't be worrying about keeping up with the Joneses. If she does any bragging it will be about economizing, canning, or learning a new skill. You won't hear her complain charmingly that she simply can't do this or that. She'll know how to take care of the details of living and make decisions like an efficient executive.
Never will you hear her make slighting remarks about women who are tackling hard, difficult jobs. For she will be a new-stlye woman herself. But she won't be hard, and won't glory in the fact that she can get along without a man at her side. The Victory Model Woman will be essentially feminine. She'll just be the average American woman who gives up luxury, time-wasting activities and all pretense of helplessness and dependency, to become a more capable, independent worker for victory.
If more wives were shy about for money, fewer husbands would be shy. Throttle Of the Child Who's Defiant Try to Develop Cooperation in Growing Youngster, Myers' Advice By GARRY CLEVELAND MYERS, Ph.D. Many a child over six, when commanded by his parents, acts as if he were a prosecuting. attorney. He questions and cross-questions his parents before he chooses whether to obey or not.
This practice is absurd. It. humiliates the parents and does grave moral harm to the child, cultivating disobedience in him and disregard for constituted authority in any situation. It is no way to build a good foundation for citizenship in a democracy. From time to time, I have, in this column, tried to show practical ways of cultivating easy COoperation and obedience in the growing child.
To this end, I have pointed out repeatedly the importance of limiting commands to the very few things the child should not do and of making requests instead. Reasonable Requests Commanding a child over five or six to do something other than a routine matter may occasionally be desirable and his age and experience should render him able to profit from a penalty to compel him to do this; yet such occasions should be very seldom. Being a good parent, you aim to make your requests and commands always SO reasonable that your child will discover that you always try to be just and sensible. When you are not sure the reason for your decision against the child or or command of him is apparent to him, make clear the reason before you state your decision or the habit of always asking why is mand. For your child to develop very bad practice.
It usually leads to argument and quarrels. In case this has become habitual, make up your mind to stop it. At a time when you and the child are calm, announce to him your resolve. Tell him you him to obey promptly hereafter without ado, that if, after he has obeyed, he still feels your decision was not just, he may feel free to come and tell you so. Then you must prove you have been reasonable or apologize.
Be sure Then to if make your word good. he proceeds, as formerly, to question you before obeying, keep your lips sealed. Should he fail to obey with reasonable promptness, assign an effective punishment. Otherwise avoid any future command unless or until you are sure he will obey or you have the wherewithal to effect obedience in him the next time. Solving Parent Problems Q.
My boy, nine years old, knows he must make a bee-line for the house when the street lights appear and that this rule will continue till its repeal is announced. He says he is the only boy on the street who must follow such a rule and that some of the other boys tease him about it. A. Don't repeal this rule until he is several years older. Refuse to argue with him about it.
Years hence he will be grateful to you for your wise guidance. Try to make his evenings indoors interesting and satisfying to him, attracting others there when time permits.

When an enlisted man, because of physical disability, is found to be unfitted for military service he is retained in the hospital until his condition has reached a point where he will no longer be benefitted by treatment in a military hospital. He is then given a Certificate of Disability for Discharge. Many are weeded out quite early in their military career, the largest number within three months.
Most of these are simply temperamentally unfitted for military life. They are continuously reporting for sick call for minor complaints, or they have indigestion, or their hearts flutter, or their backs ache, etc. They are much better off in civil life, where they recover with surprising aplomb. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Are thyroid tablets harmful in any way if taken with a doctor's advice? A lady told me she took them and they made her nervous. I should take them as I am a way overweight.
Answer: Answering your question strictly, if taken with a doctor's advice thyroid tablets are harmless, but the doctor's directions should be followed. You sound to me as if you were thinking of taking them without consulting a doctor. Thyroid extract is a very poor way to reduce. The only safe procedure is a strict diet, Editor's Note: Dr. Clendening has seven pamphlets which can be obtained by readers.

The hostess should either invite the guest to take her place, or suggest some other game such as hearts or rummy, in which five persons can play. Q.
When introducing two men, is it proper to say, "Mr. Baker, this is my friend, Mr. Harris?" A. No; this would imply that Mr. Baker is not a friend.

How can I correct her of this bad habit?" EDNA.
Answer: Tell her casually and in a friendly spirit that it would be most embarrassing if the landlord or building superintendent should have to enter the apartment in your absence and see the condition of her room. Next morning, suggest before going to work that you make each bed together one on one side the other on the other side, for the sake of speed. Then hang her clothes on the hangers in her closet and put her shoes and stockings where they belong. After she has seen you do this, she will realize the improvement and will probably cooperate. I fear that her oversight is due to some fault in her breeding.
I know very wealthy girl who, while attending a country wedding, had to leave her personal maid at home. Knowing that her hostess' one servant would be overworked at that made particular time, she voluntarily her own bed and did not leave her room until it was spick and span. She had had the same home training that Queen Victoria's mother had given her. A real lady will prefer chamber work to a conscience pricked by responsibility for disorder. Question: I have recently moved into a house having a swimming pool on the grounds, which are spacious.
I thought of giving a swimming party in the early evening soon. Could you give me some suggestions for thus entertaining my guests and tell me what to serve? ADA. Answer: If you have a large bathhouse, partition it off with one side for men and the other for women. This will relieve your bathrooms of wear and tear. If you have no such bathhouse, you will then have to arrange for your guests to use your bathrooms and hang their clothes in your closets.
They will, of course, bring their own bathing suits and robes or slacks. Be sure that you have large supply of towels convenient. After your guests have had enough swimming and have changed to their clothes, arrange a bridge game or a dance using the music of your radio or victrola and serve a cold buffet supper of sandwiches, a salad, iced drinks on your ve- Miss Markel will promptly mail personal answers to questions from any reader enclosing selfaddressed 3-cent stamped envelope.
