T. Eyston, of England, feels that at almost 360 miles an hour he virtually has reached the ceiling of land speed. His chief rival, John Cobb; also of London, holds however that there is no limit to the rate of motion man can attain on the ground. Eyston last month was officially timed at 347.16 miles an hour as he rocketed his Thunderbolt auto- mobile through the measured mile on the Bonneville Salt Flats, Utah, "I've figured it out scientifical- ly," said Eyston, "and I don't think a land speed of much more sj~ S ews 4 't ,f mart Pra:e By Elizabeth Eedy SICK MAN NO MORE—No long- er can Turkey be called "the sick man o!

Turkey is now a modern, efliclently-run state, with a string of defensive alliances and non -aggression pacts extending from mid -Asia to mid -Europe. It has suddenly become a key nation tivhnse recovery from `'sickness" Is a matter of vital interest to all the other nations of Europe. In pre-war days, Turkey was tied *with Imperial Germany—today, things are the other way about. It anything, Turkey is on the side of the democracies, becoming increas- ingly cordial with Great Britain and France (Britain recently lent Turkey money for rearmament). She has a friendly alliance with So- viet Russia, strategically important. But here's the main point for the present: as a potential leader of the states of the Balkan Entente (Yugoslavia, Greece, Rumania and Turkey) and Bulgaria, Turkey can swing that corner of Europe into line against the Rome -Berlin axis, can block German expansion down the Danube towards the near -East, FUTILE EXPEDITION—Sailing last week to Europe went six Cana- dians, delegates to the League of Nations September session in Ge- neva.

"Racing tires to hold up at greater speeds can't be built. At 360 the outside of the, tire is trav- elling at the speed of sound, about 700 miles an hour. If they were- n't completely shielded, the wind alone would rip them wide open. "Wouldn't Live to Tell It" "After you pass 300, the graph of danger rises almost vertically, and the graph of car and engine performance drops rapidly, Man won't go much faster than 360 on land and live to .tell about it." In the picture, Captain Eyston (Centre) is shown as he climbed from his racing monster after making the 347 -mile record, This story, if true, raises a dozen questions. Does Ilitler believe that Franco's cause is doomed? Is it a case of rats leaving a sinking • ship? Or is Hitler leaving Musso- lini to carry on, double -strength, in Spain? Perhaps the airmen are to be used elsewhere, on some more important front? END OF HARVEST—The farm- ers of Ontario, breathing a collec- tive sigh of relief at the satisfac- tory size of the crops, have garner- ed in all their grain—what the grasshoppers, the army worms, rust and hail storms didn't get. Barns are pleasingly plump with the harvest, and now for thresh- ing! Here's where the womenfolk on Ontario's farms don't get a break. Pront dawn to dark It's nothing but cooking, serving meals, washing up for a gang of hungry (oft boy!) workers. Some farm housewives have to bake as many as a dozen pies a day during the busy season, And all of them have to be like "mother used to make," or else. Won't they be glad to see sum- mer end, and the "season of mists and mellow fruitfulness" (Keats) begin! THE WEEK'S QUESTION—Ifow many young people in Canada, of employable age, have never had work?

"Feed prospects in Ontario and the Maritimes are excellent," said Mr. Byers, "and there is already a big demand for western cattle. The outlook is very good and east- ern buyers are already on their way west." A Mental Case Doctor Decries Trend In Some Families To Feel Ashamed Of Mentally I1) Person In The Home Bcause the average family is re- luctant to reveal the presence of mental diseases among its mem- bers, Michigan's problems and its expenses in handling these cases in state hospitals as well as in pris- ons has increased, according to Dr. I. N. La Victoire, psychiatrist at the Michigan Reformatory. A mistaken feeling of shame has developed through the ages about mental disorders, Dr. Victoire said, Most families seek to shelter rela- tives who develop mental diseases instead of seeking prompt aid for them at public and private institu- tions, The result, he said, is that such persons become worse in the same manner that persons 1plrysic- ally ill who are not 'given 'treat- ment become worse. Makes Cure More Difficult This, Dr. La Victoiro believes, leads to more cases of violent dis- orders and insanity and prevents the recovery of many who aright bo cured. It also increases the state's cost for treatment of the in- dividuals when they have to be publicly institutionalized. Maladjustment produces many mental disorders and many cases can be cured if reached in the ear- ly stages, Dr. La Victoire said. Ile urged that the aid of experts be sought in treating mental cases in the same way that strictly physical illnesses are recognized and the aid of a doctor sought. One Plant Bears 41 Big Tomatoes R.

LEARN TO SWIM Around two hundred boys and girls have learned to swim under the auspices of the Lions Club and that is a great achievement.

Ho would be a rash man, however, who would say it would be imma- terial to national interests if these forces were so potent as to colour aid influence the public mind to the detriment of logical thinking.

Would Build Up Big Food Reserve Vast Storage Plan for Great Britain" Is Submitted by Pro. lessor Keynes -- Scheme of Warehouses Full of Canad. ian Foodstuffs The plan submitted by Professor John Maynard Keynes to tho Brit- ish Association for the Advance- ment dvancement of Science calling for stor- ing in the United Kingdom vast quantities of Canadian wheat and other surplus empire foodstuffs and raw materials was generally approved last week in the press, though there were a few dissent- ing notes, Professor Keynes' paper esti- Uncle Henry and Aunt Em start- ed out alone to explore the grounds. They couldn't get lost because the palace grounds were enclosed by a high way of green marble set with emeralds. It was a rare treat to those simple folks, who had liv- ed in the country all their lives and known little enjoyment of any sort, to wear beautiful clothes and live In a palace and be treated with respect and consideration by every- one. They were very happy, indeed, as they looked at the gorgeous flow- ers and shrubs, feeling that their new home was more beautiful than any tongue could describe. Sud• denly,.as they turned a corner and walked through a gap in a high hedge, they came face to face with an enormous lion which crouched upon the lawn and seemed surpris- ed by their appearance. They stop- ped short. Uncle Henry trembled with horror and Aunt Em was ton terrified to scream. The next tnotnent the poor wo• man clasped her husband around the neck crying—"Save me, Henry, save me!" -"Can't even save my- self, yself, Ern," he returned in a husky voice. "The animal looks as though it could cat both of us and lick his chops for more. If I only had a gun." ''haven't yew, Henry? Haven't you?" she asked, anxious- ly. "Nary a gun, Etn. t knew our luck wouldn't last." ''I won't die! I won't he eaten by a lion!" walled Aunt Em, glaring at the huge beast. 'Copyrighted 1992, Reilly & L,. Co Then a thought struck her and she whispered: "Henry some sav- age beasts can be conquered by the human eye. I'll eye that lion and save our lives." "Try it, Em," lie returned, also in a whisper. "Look at frim as you do at me sometimes." Aunt Ein turned upon the lion a wild dilated eye. She glared at the immense beast steadily and the lion, who has beton blinking at then quietly, began Ito appear uneasy and disturbed. "Is anything the matter, ma'am?" he asked Iu a mild voice, mated the United Kingdom could store £500,090,000 worth of goods at an annual cost of £20,000,000. He mentioned specifically Cana- dian wheat, British West Indies sugar, Indian Jute, Australian wool, West African vegetable oils and various metals. "Better Than Gold Mine" Professor Keynes, food storage adviser to the government, said such reserves in war "would be better than a gold mine." The News Chronicle, Liberal, considered the plan had undoubt- ed advantages but expfesscd the opinion it was by no means cer- tain it would prevent ups and downs of prices, "The (Keynes) paper should stimulate the government to deal with this question on a much larg- er scale than it has done up to the present," the News Chronicle added.

The ,greatest single factor iu this reduction of blindness, Sir Stewart explained, was early treatment and especially the ap- plication of silver solution to the eyes of children at birth. Insulin, by checking diabetic conditions, is also reducing the in- cidence of cataracts, said Sir Stewart. Cathracts were often caused by diabetic condition, he explained, GOAT'S BLOOD CURE Two hundred people have been cured of gastric ulcers by having goat's blood injected into their veins at the Institute of [flood Transfusion in Moscow, U.S.S.R. The cures were remarkably , rapid, and in the two years that the experiments have continued no patient has had n recurrence of the trouble after 'treatment. The treatment has been found success- ful also when applied to skin (lis - eases and tropical ulcers, though somewhat less effective than for gastric ulcer, Five cubic centimetres of blood are transferred from the goat to the patient at each injection, Af- ter the second transfusion the pain disappears and the ulcer be- gins to heal. • ELASTIC METAL Scientists are constantly (lis- eovernhg new metals and improv- ing on old ones, But now they have made a new substance which is neither mineral nor vegetable, bat a combination of both.

M, McNeely, medical superinlendent of Essex County Sanatorium, Windsor, Ont,, has been experimenting for years with plants in his capacity as amateur horticulturist. 11 is hobby has brought him ninny pleasant mo- ments, and lately gave rise to the •idea that it niay be possible to hasten the growth of bone, in op- erations where pieces must be re- moved. He admits that he doesn't think himself capable of a medical dis- covery of this magnitude, but be- lieves it will come, in the light that CoI, Charles A. Lindbergh is experimenting with a live heart and has kept it alive by nutrition for years, The genial doctor got %nim idea when he began to grow his re- markable flower garden without earth last May, in his first experi- ment with hydroponics, Ile has one garden containing.13 varieties Of plants and a tomato plant as well, and there isn't a vestige of earth anywhere. The toots _are in water containing a solution of chemical salts. '1'he seeds are planted in four inches of ordinary excelsior, suspended on wire net- ting above water containing the salts solution. And a!niost miraculously, the plants are healthier and much larger than those left to the care of Mother Nature, \Vhen the leaves of the plants began to yel- low, Dr. McNeely took this as a symptom that there was an iron deficiency and added a bit of iron sulphate. lnuncdialcly the leaves took on n deeper color and show- ed signs of improved health.

For one thing, the county is bordered by the Niagara River, a body of water which has figured large in a dozen incidents. The Welland County Historical Society has done a valuable job in collecting over a period of years all the papers and records which throw light on the past of that re- gion, So far, five volumes of the Papers and Records have been published, dealing with the \Var of 1812, the Fenian raids, the building of the Welland Ship Canal, the story of Fort Erie, happenings on the Niagara frontier. Sketches of personalities serve to make the documents real and interesting, The student interested in the history of Ontario cannot afford to tnlss a perusal of these volumes. They may be had at $2.00 a piece.

During the trip Mrs, Cumming and her daughter had the experience of seeing con- siderable big game, A Black Sheep A black sheep ran into a cul- de-sac, chased by a dog; leaped a four -foot gate; jumped through a window into a house; knocked over table at which some people were having breakfast; smashed crockery and ornaments, and smothered the food in broken glans.

Farmers' Feeder Purchase Plan "HOOK UP Is Announced OGDEN'S" Fedcral Government Aids The Farmers In Buying Cattle - One -Way Expenses to West Paid The refund to farmers, or their agents, of one-way travelling cx• peuses is embodied in n feeder pur- chase policy which Agriculture Minister J, 0. Cardlner announces became effective in Canada Septem- ber, extending until December 31, The policy is aimed at helping farmers to make personal selec- tion of feeder stock - cattle and lambs- in Western Canada, 1t is efllective 111 three editions, ono each for Eastern Canada, the Prai- rle Provinces and Brltlsh Colum- bia.

They may also purchase lambs and breeding ewes at the Moose Jaw sale, and lambs at the stockyards. In Three Sections British Columbia farmers, or their agents, may have the benefits of the policy on cattle purchased from a range herd in the Interior of British Columbia; at the Moose Jaw and Saskatoon feeder sales, and at country points or stock- yards, in Alberta and Saskatchew- an. Lambs purchased at stockyards, and both lambs and ewes purchas- ed at the Moose Jaw sale, or at country points in these two pro- vinces, will be eligible.

Farm Topics +r-.-a-�-•-* _.r _ +-�-�-.-++a-+++ Control of Sow Thistle After -harvest c111111atiton is the cheapest and most effective method of controlling Perennial Sew 'This- tle, states J. D. McLeod cf the Crops, Seeds and Weeds Br:luclh of the Ontario Department of Agri- culture, in an interview this week. "The .creeping rootstallts of the Perennial Sow Thistle are at '.heir weakest stage right now," sail Mr, McLeod, "Heat, sunlight anti dry weather are oer best .partners." Mr, McLeod advises deep plow- ing immediately after harvest, The land should be allowed to dry thor- oughly for two or three weeks without Cultivation. It is 1►ointed nut that surface soil is separated from subsoil; moisture is cut off, and root -stalks are hollow and milky and cannot stand thea' and dryness. Follow later with the broad shares on the cultivator to get any plants that remain. Shallow plowing, cultivating or deep discing will hill young sum- mer annuals and Induce seeds to germinate, states Mr. McLeod. Af- ter harvest cultivation pays big dividends in assuring larger suc- ceeding crops and better returns. Kill weeds when they are weakest. Plan now to work all infested fields which are not seeded down.

THE BUSY FARMER The Toronto Crop Throughout Ontario weather and I moist,1re conditions ri'rr•ing the past month have been generally favourable for good growth. The quality of sotue products, however, was somewhat low- ered by heat and too much rainfall. Tomato worsts are particularly numer- 011)1 this season in Eastern Ontario. In Southwestern counties tomato crack- ing is greater than usual and there has been some sea:ding of onions. in Middlesex county thrip injury to on- ions is reported Otherwise disease Roadside Weeds harmers and city dwellers alike, will agree that country roads are the show windows of Ontario farms and are largely responsible for advertising pro- ducts of the soil. If roads are marred by an unsightly growth of weeds, tour- ists get a bad impression and urban residents lose faith in rural Ontario as a producer of agricultural products second to none in the world. There are seven good reasons why roadside weeds should be wiped out of existence. They (1) infest adjoin- ing farm lands; (2) spread plant dis- eases (1) are dangerous to traffic; (1) will gather and hold snow; (.,) clog ditches on roans;des and thus hinder the flow 01' water and proper drainage of the road bed; (6) are dangerous from a fire standpoint; CO are un- sightly to residents and tourists alike. The Weed Control Act of Ontario states roadside weeds trust be de- stroyed before seeds mature. The \innicipal Council, through its road authority, is responsible for seeing that. this work is done. Proper grad - and insect pests are being cpntrolerl by ; ing of roadsides and removal of stones, intensive spraying operations and not'tumps and brush will enable the roadS more than the usual amount of damage authority to do this work quickly and has occurred. efficiently. A thick seeding of a good grass mixture will Make a thick sod which prevents weeds from obtain- ings a foothold. Chemical weed killers have proved efficient and many municipalities have greatly improved county and township earls in a weed cleanup via the chem.

All the delegates and members attending the conference were accommodated at Macdonald College. Kitchen. Harry Cook, a resident of the sixth concession of East Wawanosh, escap• ed death by a fraction Wednesday night and attributes this to the rubber boots he was wearing. During a severe electrical and rain- storm he was sitting in the kitchen of his home tinder the telephone on the wall. Other members of the family were in the house at the time and there was a particularly violent blast of lightning that seemed to conte in from the telephone wires. Cook felt a numbing sensation and slumped to the floor In a dead faint. Other members of the family deaerib• eel it as a blue ball of flame that seem- ed to explode in the -room and then disappear, Cook was unconscious for over halt an hour, and one side of his body was black after the accident, but last night he was on the way to recovery, although still suffering severe shock, The lightning severed, the telephone wires as neatly as if they had been clipped with a pair of shears. GODERICI-I,—The home of John •Nlvins, Warren street, was struck by lightning on Wednesday afternoon; during the electrical storm which occurred with the heavy downpour of rain' The bolt shattered a bridge lamp in the living room and crashed into the chesterfield, damaging the centro of it, and badly singeing an afghan. The chesterfield had been occupied by Miss Shirley Nlvins, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Nivins, a few minutes before the bolt struck. Fortunately the damage is Covered by insurance. The home of Miss Roberts, St. Pat- rick street, was also visited by light - wing during the sante storm, and the telephone box in the basement was de- stroyed. The lights on the streets and in the homes of the southeaatern section of the town were out of commission for nearly an hour on Wednesday night. Radios and telephone connections were also • disconinued in some parts of the town. VICTIM IS RECOVERING. DUNGANNON — Gordon Finnigan, \Vest Wawanosh, injured in Wednes- clay"s electrical storm, is doing nicely it was reported last night. Finnigan, who was leading a horse by the metal ring of its bit, had his hand and wrist burned by the bolt. It is thought that, if the horse had not been there, the young man would have been injured more seriously as ino would have re- ceived the full force of the bolt. Dur- ing the same storm, William .1. Stew- art, reeve of West Wawanosh, had a young cow instantly killed as she was grazing in the field. When found she' was dead, beside a rail fence alon" ,which a strand of wire had been stretched to strengthen the fence. The flesh was burned where it touched the wire. ROOSEVELT VISIT KEPT C.N.

Place. --The location of Ramah has not yet been exactly identified; Mizpah was in Benjamin on the road from Jerusalem to Shechem; Endor was four miles south of Mount Tabor. Mount Gilboa, the top of which is seventeen hundred feet above sea -level, was on the great plain of Jezreel in the cen- tre of Palestine. Saul was Israel's first king. The same "Saul" is usually regarded as the passive participle of the verb "to ask," and so means simply "asked". Saul was the son of Kish, of the tribe of Benjamin, the fight- ing tribe of Israel. Saul's home was at Gibeah, usually identified with Tell el -Ful, a town about midway between Ramah and Jeru- salem. Excavations carried on by the American School of Oriental Research in 1922 show that the site was occupied in the Canaan- ite period and was strongly forti- fied at the time of Saul and David. Sometime after Samuel's pri- vate anointing of Saul, the prophet called all of Israel together at Mizpah. Chosen King 21. And he brought the tribe of Benjamin near by their fam- ilies; and the family of the Mat- ri.te ryas taken; and Saul the son Of Kish was taken; but when they sought him, he could not be found. 9,2 of ifs o t. Na1l.i14p we know nothing, for it is ire-slr referred to in the Bible outside of this passage, 22. Therefore they asked of Jehovah further: Is there yet a man to come hither? And Jeho- vah answered, Behold, he hath hid himself among the baggage. Saul shared the feeling that constrain- ed Moses to shrink back when he was appointed to deliver Israel from Egypt. 23. And they ran and fetched him thence; and when he stood among the people, he was higher than any of the people from his shoulders and upward. 24. And Samuel said to all the people, See ye him whom Jehovah hath chos- en, that there is none like him among all the people? And all the people shouted, and said, Long live the king. 25. Then Samuel told the peo- , ple the manner of the kingdom, and wrote it in a hook, and laid it up before Jehovah. And Samuel sent all the people away, every man to his house. This was, as it were, a charter at the beginning of the Hebrew monarchy, probab- ly defining the position of the king, both in his relation to God and in his relation to the people. Israel demanded that the king should possess all the natural at- tractions which the Israelites would desit:in a king. He would reflect the religious standpoint at its best, but also he would rep- resent their national failings and the great defect of their religious life, namely, a combining of zeal for the religion of Jehovah and utter want of real heart submis- sion to the Lord. The people oh- tained precisely what they ‘:ant- ed; and because he who was their king so corresponded to their ideal and so reflected the national state, he failed. Saul's Disobedience Considerable time elapses be- tween the day of Saul's public anointing before Israel and the story which we are now to con- sider. Saul had completely reor- ganrmed the army, had inflicted n terrific defeat upon the Philistines at Michmash, and then had gone out against Israel's old enemies, the Amalekites. The time had now come for the execution of God's sentence of destruction de- clared many years before. God had told Saul through Samuel that he was to destroy utterly all the possessions and property of Amalek, and every member of the tribe, every man, every woman, every child. Saul carried out God's instruction to destroy all the peo- ple, but Saul and the people spared Agag, and the best of the sheep, and of the oxen, and of the fatlings, and the lambs, and all that was good, and would not utterly destroy them. The sparing of the prey was a matter of pure greed. The sin of Saul was delib- erate. It was the sin of putting his will before God's will, and this was the great moral tragedy in Saul's life. 20. And Saul said unto Sam- uel, Yea, I have obeyed the voice of Jehovah, and have gone the way which Jehovah sent me, and have brought Agag the king of Amalek, and have utterly destroy- ed the Amalekites, 21, But the people took of the spoil, sheep and oxen, the chief of the devoted things, to sacrifice unto Jehovah thy God in Gilgal. 22. And Sam- uel said, Hath Jehovah as great delight in burnt -offerings and sac- rifices, as in obeying the voice of Jehovah? Behold, to obey is bet- ter than sacrifice, and to hearken than the fat of rams. 23. For re- bellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as idolatry and teraphim. Because thou hast rejected the word of Jehovah, he hath also rejected thee from being king. Saul still continues, as guil- ty people often will, to justify his conduct, though, down in his heart, he must have known that there was no real justification for what he had clone. With a burst of prophetic inspiration Samuel rends asunder Saul's tissue of ex- cuses, and lays bare his sin. Saul now confesses his sin, and Sam- uel had solemnly to tell him that he could no longer go with the Icing as he appeared before the people. Many years have passed in Saul's life, and we find him now a man stripped of power, fearful, walking in the darkness of his own counsels, rushing hes long to the doom that is immediately before him. The episode recorded in chapter 28 is one of the most fam- ous in all the Old Testament. Defeated And Slain 3. And the battle went sore against Saul, and „the archers overtook him; and he was greatly distressed by reason of the ar- chers. 4. Then said Saul to his armorbearer, Draw thy sword, and thrust me through therewith, lest these uncircumcised come and thrust me through, and abuse me. But his armorbearer would not; for he was sore afraid. Therefore Saul took his sword, and fell up- on it, 5. And when his armor - bearer saw that Saul was dead, he likewise fell upon his sword, and died with him. G. So Saul died, and his three sons, and his armor - bearer, and all his men, that same day together. Bell -Ringing Bird Killed Farm Hands Get Strange Creat- ure After It Had Caught Crow WARDSVILLE, Ont. — With their attention attracted by a wild commotion of flapping wings and the sound of ringing bells high above their heads, harvest hands working on the farm belonging to J. A. King, second concession, Ald- borough Township, were surprised on looking to see a large bird evi- dently of the raptorial order pursu- ing a crow which it finally pounced on in midair and bore to the earth clutched in its powerful claws a short distance away. Frightened by the approach of the men the bird flew to a nearby tree where it sat perched watching every movement of the men. D. Lee, one of the workers, borrowed a neighbouring farmer's gun and later shot the winged killer while its attention was centred on the men. The bird with a wing spread measuring two and one half feet was blutsh•gray in color and had a small bell securely strapped to each leg. Neither hell bore any identification marks.

Up to, the time he is four or five years old, Johnny has used his eyes rather vaguely. He has done a lot of staring at the sky, for instance; he has watched peo- ple and animals and things, but as a whole rather than in detail, Now, when he learns to read, write and do little SUIl1S, he is also learning to concentrate both his mind and his eyes. Rest Them Off and On Besides the obvious precautions of seeing •that when he is reading or writing he is 'sitting at the right height, in the right light (which should always cot11C from behind hila), and is dealing with a good clear print, you .should make a rule that at first the child doesn't work any more than an hour a day. h,'ncourage hinl to rest his eyes when he is not working, Teaching children to wash their eyes carefully every day is really as important as teaching them to brush their teeth. You can start by bathing them with a piece of cotton wool soaked in eye lotion, but the best way is to use an eye- bath. Even if your child's eyes sects as strong and healthy as you could wish, it's alti'nys worth while hav- ing them tested now and again.

'Tiredness May Be Due -To Worrying Often Fatigue Is Not Caused By Organic Trouble At All A patient visited a physician and complained of a tired feeling all the time. After a careful examination he advised him to visit his dentist and bring a report as to 1110 con• dition of his teeth including an X- ray examination. When the pati- ent returned with a statement from the dentist that there was no in• fection of the teeth or gums, the physician simply turned to the pa- tient and said, "Suppose you tell 010 the whole story, I find no cause for your tiredness nor does your dentist, so that your tiredness is not due to organic trouble of any kind. You have something on your mind, something that has you think- ing most of the day and part of the night; it is this constant thinking —worrying, or puzzling of your brain—that is keeping you con- stantly tired, And until you get it settled in some way you will re- main tired," Not The Work Itself Tiredness is sometimes said to be due to overwork but it may be the worry about the work, not the work itself that causes the tired- ness; And if the individual cannot adjust himself nicely to his wot'k, then the constant upset state or this lack of adjustment is going to keep hint tired, - Perseverance Is Always Required If You Want to Be Slim and Have Beautiful Hair A thorough, nightly brushing is just about the best treatment for hair.

Some one is always the life of the party, says a writer in the Lon- don Daily Express, In every tennis club, every olflce, every seaside ho- tel, one or two girls make ill the others look uninteresting, Do you ever wonder why? Do you ever wonder what makes a Plus Girl? Let's analyze in detail the points that make them Plus. She's Natural You will find that her charm is based on probably unconscious obedience to a few simple rules. She does not obey all of them al- ways, but she does so more than the other girls, Conform to these rules, and you can be a Plus Girl yourself. 1. She is natural. She doesn't try to be somebody else, 2. She is not afraid of being snubbed or misunderstood, doesn't waste time thinking of people as possible enemies. 3. She looks happy, It is easy to 111(e some one who looks happy. That sloes not 111ea11 put on a non- stop hyena act, but it does mean that you should make a genuine effort to smile a lot, Make your- self look happy and you'll soon be happy. 4. She seems to be genuinely in- terested in the people she talks to. She really wants to know about their children and their interests. She pays them the compliment of appearing wholeheartedly interest- ed in what they have to say. Hats For Autumn Will Be Practical The hat silhouettes for autumn are largely practical, and with an occasional exception in a tiny hat for formal wear, are designed for general acceptance. There are pillboxes with bright trimmings or irregular formations, tricornes which are of comfortable propor- tions with bows for height, and many spectator sports hats with brims that expose the hair at one side and with conical, high crowns, the height augmented by off -shooting quills. Among the brimless styles are a number of very high fez shapes, made of suede in a combination of two or more colors, striped or in patchwork effect. Also numerous are the visor effects, which com- plement different small silhouettes with or without brines.

Among Mrs. Ward's first customers was the then Prince of Wales, now Duke of Windsor. She recalls that he ate enormous quantities of her chocolate cake.
