f^/lealth byDr. CCRobinsor MUSIC AS MEDICINE SN the New York Nursery and Child's Hospital, good music will henceforth form a part of the regular program. Asa result of musical treatment In this institution • luring a recent period of sixty days. It was quite definitely established that :i& value as a curative and restorative • gent was very marked. The test • as tried at first with mothers in the iatemity wards but also with the •ables and sick children. The tests have amply demonstrated hat music of the right kind has a marked therapeutic effect on the : nirita and general morals of these • •spltal patients. Music seems to • eate a desire to get well and enoy the promised hope music instills In their souls. Just what it is in good music that causes patients to sit up and take notice or to forget for the time being. ;md undoubtedly for a much longer period, the pain that 1? gnawing at their vital health condition is hard for a physician to diagnose. But this we do know —the heart beats faster in full health when a brass band strikes up a stirring march. The same holds true when we are ill or convalescing. Mother’s song of other days brought peace to ihe heart of childhood when she sang way the pain of cuts, aches or bumps. There is a peculiar gland action in the human body that responds to the stimulus of music. The pituitary g'and of the sphenoid bone in the cranium has been accused of sending out the stimulus in music to which "he body responds during periods of depression for renewed hope, health and happiness. Medical science is not so sure of this, however, but let us hope it is true. This situation is a positive one. Health may be hastened for many patients by the use of music or a concord of sweet sounds. The writer js well acquainted with a woman over 60 years of age who has been ill in bed for almost two years. Music by means of radio has restored her health to a marked degree. Here’s a Pleasant Task A call for a meeting of the county finance board Jan. 10, has been issued by Auditor Harry Dunn to select banks in whish to deposit county funds of 17,000,000. which were turned over to the new treasurer, John L.

KITCHEN TOOLS FTTH O you ever take an inventory, I J so to speak, of your kitchen l L ~' utensils and weed out the old and worthless to make way for the new and necessary? It’s quite as important for the housekeeper to have a full set of good tools as it is for the carpenter or plumber. Sharp knives, broad blunt knives, stiff knives, limber knives, one long two-tined fork, one short three-tined fork, assorted spoons, a pair of scissors are as necessary In the kitchen as the bits and chisels and saws and hammers are In the carpenter’s tool chest. And the housekeeper uses her tools three times a day, 365 dajss In the year, rain or shine. A nicked or bent-edged paring knife is worthless in the kitchen, so throw it away and invest in a good steel knife that will stand sharpening and then take care of it. A paring knife is a delicate tool and should not be used for scraping pots and pans nor prying off refractory lids. If you pay a good price for a stainless steel paring knife with a sharp, easily turned •edge designed speecially for paring and then abuse it you are throwing your money away. Don’t cut down on a hard surface with a paring knife. For instance, when mincing parsley, put the parsley on a small board rather than an old plate or saucer. Economical, Too When you are baking cookies you will use the spatula to remove them from the molding board and again to remove them from the pan and again to remove the last bit of dough from the mixing bowl. A light, fluffy j cake frosting is spread wtih the spatI ula and the last trace of the frosting >is removed from the platter or bowl with this same tool. A spatula will save many times its cost just by being the means of using every bit of batter or frosting of pudding or omelet or anything which must be mixed In a bowl. % A wooden spoon is essenial for creaming butter and sugar and beating stiff mixtnres. A slotted spoon is convenient for beating cakes, stirring gravies and sauces, or beating mashed potatoes if a wooden masher has been used. A long-tined and long-handled fork is an insurance against burned fingers for oven use. A wire whisk is as necessary as : a dover beater. And the joy of havj ing two sizes of dover beaters must • be experienced to be appreciated. Very I often it is quite important to beat the yolk of one egg. Every houaebeeper

LETTER FROM JOHN ALDEN PRESCOTT TO HIS MOTHER-IN-LAW, MRS. JOSEPH GRAVES HAMILTON DEAR MOTHER: I hope you will allow me to wish you the pleasantest of Journeys on your trip abroad. I know you are going to be filled with pride when you see Alice driving away for her presentation at court. I sometimes wonder if Leslie has any regret in the loss of all these privileges and festivities. Siie, however, seems perfectly satisfied to be a poor man's wife, especially since we adopted the baby. Leslie writes me that Mr. Hamilton Is much taken with him. Os course that makes her very happy and I am extremely glad that you have taken the kiddle to your hearts, especially as my mother has not been *0 kind about It. She seems to think that because I gave him the name of John Alden Prescott I have done something very terrible, but I tell Leslie she is old-fashioned and we will have to forgive her. I hope you will bring back the governor in perfect health and again please let me say that you have all my good wishes for a pleasant Journey and a safe return. Affectionately, your son, JOHN ALDEN PRESCOTT.
lyctter From I**slte Prescott To John Alden Pro >-ott
That was a sweet letter, dearest, you wrote to mother. Almost sweet enough to make up to me for not getting one myself. You are not angry with me, are you, John, and please do not pity me for not going abroad with mother and dad. I'd much rather stay at home with you and Junior. I know I love you very much, John, because you have changed almost all my tastes, even my dislike for beefsteak. (That is a Joke, John.) Before I met you I was much more of a society girl than is Alice and the thought of being presented at court would have carried me to the seventh heaven of my highest desire*. But now it seems to me the veriest and silliest of nonsense to Stick three feathers in the top of your marcell and wear a train which is so long that It has to be spread out by two splendid servants in plush panties Just for the sake of courtsying to a stodgy old king and a dowdy old queen

who probably are as bored as you are. It may be all right for English people who have some reverence for rulers, but for us free-born, haughty Americans who pull our presidents out of the chair and kick them out of the \yhite House at least every eight years it sounds ridiculous, doesn't it? Tonight, dear, when I knelt by the baby's bed and watched his soft breathing, l though of that mother who bent over the cradle in the manger and connluded that my lot. even with a vicarious child, was much bet- : ter than was Alice's who Ims only a presentation at court to look forward to. 1 I love you* LESLIE.

‘Younger Generation’ Growing Up Too Soon
The younger generation! Criticised, defended, it rushes through life, ever iu the limelight. One of its members has begun to wonder about the “younger generation.” She wonders whether I feel, as many people have indicated they do, that the “younger generation” is rushing to its doom.
I do not. As I see it, the main trouble with the "younger generation” is that it is not young enough. It is missing the happy, carefree time of the eariy teens, by imitating its more sophisticated elder brothers and sisters. Many of its members play with fire. I don’t know that any more of them get burnt than did members of the "younger generations" of days gone by. But many are scorched, so that they acquire a hard, unnatural finish. The “younger generation” is going a fast pace. It is growing up too scon. But the very fact that it asks questions about itself shows that it is not whirling blindly. A Call for Opinion My Dear Miss Lee: I'd be ever bo grateful If you would print your opinion of the younger generation. Do you believe that we are all on a road that will lead eventually to disruption and ruin? Do you sponsor the way we are rushing along? What would be your honest advice to the younger generation? I am 15 and a junior jn high seho# Should we behave like our grandmothers and mothers, and be regular "Alice-sit-by-the-fires?" I say no. Why do older folks say that they think It is wrong, wrong, wrong, that boys and gtrls start out so young? Why, say some. “How can they possibly know right from wrong?" That's true, too, but they 'forget that the younger generation Is hardened and understands ways that our grandmothers, mothers and fathers did not learn until they were at least 18 or 10. Now that's what I think. Would you please be so kind as to give me your advice and opinion? I would also like to hear from some of the younger generation. Arguments accepted either way NOT AN EIGHTEENTH CENTURY MAID. You’re all right, little maid, you and your companions. You want to

get as much as possible out of life. But, in doing this, you try to hurry life. And that is not the way to find happiness. A house, to last, must be built on a firm foundation. So it is with your character, and your health. You should* be building that foundation now. Some day you no longer will care just to dance and run around. Then, unless you have built a solid character, you will find life empty. You’ll get along all right, “younger generation,” as long as you don’t lose your balance and throw away your youth. You must build for the future, as well as live for the present—remember that, and you won't go far wrong. Flirt 'Called’ Dear Miss Lr I am a girl of 22 years. I work in an office. About 6lx month* ago. a salesman came Into the office to see the manager. The man started a conversation with me. but I treated him cool He has come in three or four times a week, always when the manager is out. Lately, every time he comes in he asks for a date. I always refuse, because X don't know him well enough to have dates with him. Finally I told the manager, who says the other mar, Is married and has two children. I sure will tell him something- when I see him again. Do you think I would be doing right? DISGUSTED WITH MEN. I certainly do. And then Ignore him. AMUSEMENTS

PENSION FUND TO RECUVE $17,000 State to Turn Over Money for Retirement Benefit, The State teachers’ retirement fund will make a semi-annual payment of approximately $17,000 to the Indianapolis school city this week for the benefit of pensioned Indianapolis teachers and to sustain the fund from which future pensions will be drawn. There are about 3,000 teachers in Indianapolis contributing to the fund. They formerly were members of a local pension system, but were made members of the State unit by the 1921 Legislature. Terre Haute teachers were also identified with the State plan. Pensions are allotted on a basis of years of service previous to the time of retirement. A disability clause provides SSOO annuity if the teacher has contributed to the fund for ten years. AMUSEMENTS.
