4'DEAR ANNE HIRST: Last fall front our hoot.-. My Batt; l,ter says
my daughter, a high school senior,
started going with a divorced mat,
I ant very much
against divorce
and have talked
to her, but to no
avail,
He bought
her a winter
coat, gave her a
birthstone ring.
Later we found
he, had stolen
the money;.but others made it good,
and he wasn't arrested.
"Ile has little education. and
comes from a low-down' family,
His parents are divorced, and his
mother is not even living uow with
Iter second husband.
"Ile is most disrespectful to her
fatherand nae, and doesn't even
speak to us when he eaters our
bonne. If 1 talk to him, be laughs
in My face. 1 have tried to tell her
that anyone so hateful to older
people cannot possibly be good or
kind to his wife, It makes no im-
pression.
A BAD INFLUENCE
'Since going with hint. Eve had
three letters from her principal,
saying her graduation is doubtfult
My husband works 'very hard to
' keep a nice home for tis and give
her an education. He, with our
two -sons, see no immediate solu-
tion to the affair.
"My relatives are blaming ole.
saying l should order the man
I 1 that. sbc will
if t o �go too,
"She and .1 used to he such good
pals, going everywhere together!
But now e. w ilnug has changed.
I ani hearthro1e'. She in not even
polite any more. and says elle is of
age and can do as she pleases! 1
do hope you can give tits a little
advice to restore some peace to m+
shattered nerves. ay\i R. M."
* Ask your daughter to look at
"' this man as the father of her
" children.
* No matter how hypnotized site
* may be, she is still intelligent.
* Would she deliberately choose to
* endow bee children nit!, the
o blood -strain of a man who is dis-

"' should realize her rt•spo „si kith ler.

Such girls are out for a thrill the;
''' have never had. Well. they get
+ their thrill ---and land is.. the tai.
e vorce courts.
With yourself, your hushaud
* and your sons. I see no immediate
+ solution. cscept to let her alone.
'' It is easy for 'your family to blame
* you. But I agree it ie far let-
'" ter to accept the man in your own
• house than to have your daughter
• leave it with hint. At least now
„ you can observe the progress of
* the affair,
* Assure the girl that she has
• heard your last objection. From`
* now on, you will not disco', the
" matter unless site asks you to.
• That will relax her considerably,
*.and lessen the family tension all
' around.
* 1 deplore it all, too. But a girt
* in love cannot often be swayed by
argument. She must choose her
• own path, and take the conse-
quences. That you will suffer
-with her if she persists, is one of
* the consequences of being a
mother.
If your daughter is blinded by
passion, you can do little about it.
When she suffers the consequences
of her willfulness, she will need all
your love and sympathy .. , Anne
Hirst will try to comfort you. Write
her at Box 1, 123 Eighteenth Street,

Medical Service
Over The Air
An international radio network
operated through the medical men
of the United Nations is spotlight-
ing the :shifting flow of contagious
diseases throughout the world and
helping to check their spread.
In daily code broadcasts from
Geneva, home office of the World
Health Otganizatiou, and in twice
weekly transmissions by thirteen
substations in cities of the Ear
East, this network flashes news of
outbreaks of dread diseases.
Whether it is deadly cholera or
some other epidemic, these broad-
casts hell world stealth authorities
in a natter of hours where the
danger points are on every contin-
ent.
Under the network plan Geneva.
Saigon anti Batavia broadcast daily.
Stations at Karachi, Tokyo, Mada-
gascar, Ceylon, Hang Koug and
others send their information on to
Geneva once or twice weekly.

In addition to the radio sending

far Facet
Controls
The major unit in the net work
is the Geneva operation which ante,
a day uses ten transmitters to send
its 0 orld-wide disease reports. This
ttettrork actually started under he
League of Nations and has gradu-
ally been growing until there is
the hope that ultimately it can re-
place slower transmission of writ
ten reports that now expand the
radio bulletins.
Basically these radio reports are
beamed at world health officials
who then transmit this information
to individual maritime and port
authorities to control the 'influx of
any disease, This permits quaran-
tine and vaccination regulation to
be imposed before a ship arrives.
For instance, in addition to out-
breaks of influenza that started
apparently in Sweden, there has
been a sharp rise in cerebral spinal
meningitis in Europe and Spain,
Typhoid, too, reached• almost epi-
demic proportions this year in cer-
tain portions of Spain.
This typhoid epidemic in the Ma-
laga province was ended in March
after the entire population had been
vaccinated. The W.H.O. network
so informed the world.

Shoe Sizes
'1 he size of your shoes is based
ori the length of a grain of barley
measuring one-third of an inch. In
medieval tinges the barleycorn was
much used as a standard of mea-
surement, and when the noblemen
of old decided that the shoes of
their foot soldiers need standard-
izing they selected the soldier with
the biggest feet of all,
Measuring one foot they found
it - was exactly 13 inches, so called
it size 13. Size 12 they decreed
would be 13 inches minus one bar-
leycorn or one-third of an inch.
Size 11. would he 12 inches minus
two barleycorns.
Women's sizes were also counted
it: barleycorns, but the biggest feet
they could find among the ladies
only measured 11 inches, so they
hegaa with that size and called it
size. 11, LL —
