Choice Between Girl and Prejudice Faces Fiance, In Jane Jordan’s Opinion

Smoking hy Women Now Accepted by Society and

Should Be Conceded as & Right by Men, Prospective Bridegroom Told.

Jane Jordan will help you with your problems by her answers to your questions in this daily column.

» » » » » EAR JANE JORDAN—I am & man of 31 engaged to marry a woman of 27. All during the time I have been perfectly contented and compatible so that 1 have looked forward to a happy married life, but recently she has taken up the distaseteful habit of smoking cigaret=. I may be Victorian, or whatever they call the old-fash-joned fellows, but I am sure I never could endure this practice after marriage. I do not expect to impose on Milly's rights either now or later. I want her to live her life as fully after marriage as she did when single. Yet as surely as can be if she doesn’t give up this frivolity there will be trouble. I have talked with her, but she doesn't seem much concerned. Milly loves me and I love her, and I want that al-

fection to continue unthwarted. What do you advise? 1 do not smoke myself, PERPLEXED.

5 » » ANSWER-If you have a prejudice against smoking I don’t suppose vou want to get over it. Your girl friend will have to take her choice between the freedom to do as she pleases and living with you. If this is your only violent prejudice and you are otherwise a pleasant, reliable companion, I should think she would be able to forego a thing as comparatively unimportant as smoking. I wonder if you have other prejudices just as strong on matters of no more moment than smoking. I do not believe it is smoking per se which upsets youn. After all it is only a perfectly useless habit which brings the minimum amount of harm to the strong and healthy. It must be hooked up in your mind with something else which produces the repug-

nance, Is it that you have been brought up to believe that no nice girl

smoke? If so may I call your attention to an item in this week's Time magazine, “President Roosevelt stood in the receiving line beside the newest Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt, who smoked through an ivory cigaret holder almost as long as his own.” Once only women of low repute smoked. Now women of refinement, breeding and culture smoke if they choose. You cannot, with truth, say that a woman's character is injured by smoking, though it may not be good for her throat, lungs or larynx. You use the word frivolity in connection with smoking which indicates that you have it associated only with frivolous ladies, orgies and perhaps misbehavior. Again this isn't true for the most sober-minded business women smoke at work as well as play. It is difficult to say what people get out of smoking. Some claim it is relief from tension, some claim it is an excuse to indulge in ab- | straction without rudeness in the company of others. Other say it is a hangover from the infantile habit of putting everything in one’s mouth. In certain illnesses doctors forbid it but unless it is definitely harmful they do not deprive their patients of smoking on grounds of health, If you are a logical person you'll have to give up the idea that moderate smoking is a vice and recognize your feeling as a prejudice, Would you rather give up the girl than the prejudice? One you will have to give up. I do not know which one it should be. JANE JORDAN.

NEA Staff Writer

Temporary blemishes general- | ly respond satisfactorily to change of diet and home treatment, of course, but more serious types, like moles and birthmarks, are problems for your family doctor. He is the person who can best advise you what to do to cure or make less noticeable anything as bothersome as a mole, scar or birthmark. Do not, under any circumstances, squeeze a mole or pick at it with a pin or needle. If you want to have it removed, see a physician. Otherwise, leave it alone. Likewise, do not try to get rid of serious sears, regardless of their cause, without first getting medical advice.

Concealed by Cream

Remember that no matter how large or conspicuous a birthmark you have, it can be concealed. Simply equip your dressing table with a special kind of foundation cream, then learn to apply it correctly. One particularly efficacious variety comes in all shades to match any complexion. It is to be smoothed on over the birthmark and blend outward on the edges until no ridge of foundation will show under rouge and powder. If the blending job turns out none too well, try smoothing the

surface of face and throat and applying cream rouge and powder over it in the usual manner. If you decide on this method, make up your mind that you are going to look made up. Any foundation which is heavy enongh to cover a scar will not be a suitable base for a natural looking makeup job.

Sees Little Remedy for Hungry Baby

Writer Declares Mother Must Be Envy of Others, However,

Cai

By OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON HE mother of a happy little 2. year-old tells how her small daughter has turned the tables and

much. This Is almost as unusual as the moon jumping over the cow, for

are with too=little eating.

pears the young lady has a regular Gargantuan love of food and, in spite of extra feedings, cries for still more. Will 1 tell to do?

Of course, I can't, If doctors” tell her that she must eurb the baby's appetite “or she will grow to be a glutton,” who am I to pull the brakes and stop the skidding?

Hunger Versus Appetite

But as this baby is a very healthy child, sleeps well, is never sick, is unselfish and lovable, I don't think I would worry too much. This opin fon, and a couple of quoted para-

feeting, is my limit, Dr. Josephine Kenyon {in her book, “Healthy Babies Are Happy Babies,” says: “Aldrich makes a distinction between hunger and appetite: Hunger being a sensation which may be more or less painful, felt in the upper part of the abdomen; and appetite a desire for food, associated with pleasant memory.”

And goes on to say that hunger is “physiological” while appetite is “psychological.” Interesting, isn't it?

Food Between Meals

Dr. ¥. H, Bartlett in “Infants and Children-Their Feeding and Growth” recognizes the child with ravenous appetite ih a chapter on “Food Between Meals.” He says: “A rule of no food between meals is an excellent thing. The only exception to this rule may be made in the case of the child with ravenous appetite, He can have one-half slice of bread and butter, or onehalf an apple, or one-half banana, or an extra drink of orange juice or milk at 10 in the morning or 3 or 4 in the afternoon. Not too close to meals. There may be some objection to milk because it takes longer to leave the stomach and may interfere with the appetite for the next meal.” (This for children whose [diet includes these things.)

Envy of Other Mothers

I use this advice less for iis suggestions than to show that pediatrists do recognize the type of child with voracious appetite and do not seem to consider it unusually abnormal; or at least I think not. However if this correspondents physicians are of the opinion that her fat little girl needs less food, ft might be wise to look at the statement of Dr. C. A. Aldrich, to the effect that appetite is psychological. If it is, and it must be, then habit has a lot to do with it. I wonder if this worried lady could not divert her over-fed child from constantly thinking of food by substituting other pleasures not of the stomach. Spring is coming ~maybe she can get out more and roll off some of her superfluous fat. Yet, horrors, that may even make her hungrier. All 1 ean say is that about 10,000 mothers of ‘“satless” youngsters will envy her. The usual (ery is, “Why won't my child eat?”

Don’t Overload On Clothes for Vacation Trips

Smart travelers, whether they go by boat, train or plane, and regardless of their destination, never take more clothes than are absolutely necessary. Don't take tennis and golf clothes if you are going to spend your vacation on a dude ranch miles and miles from a tennis court or golf course, or dude ranch togs to a hotel in the Adirondacks, or a complete beach wardrobe to a cozy little farm.

Take open-toe sandals, braided bandeaus (in lieu of hats), mesh gloves and other open-air accessories. Fabric bags with washable cotton or linen covers are easy to keep fresh and crisp. Two sweater sets which can be mixed to suit yourself are practical, Backless overalls (wear them with shirts when it's cool or when you feel you have had enough suntan) are part of the feeling of freedom in sports apparel. So are very short skirts with swirling hemlines. And white flannel coats to go over everything.

If you want to be economical as well as smart, get a chunky-looking boxy swagger coat, then wear it as a beach coat and evening wrap and

over daytime dresses, too. Cotton Hose

"It reminded me of the Indianapolis Union Terminal station.” Undecided what to do, she circled over the port several times, until she received an unexpected raido niessage,

“Little blue ship, come on in!”

Mrs. Ross soloed in 10 hours, an achievement for a woman student, Her flight, made at dusk, was a disappointment, “I had no reaction,” she says. “That is, until the next day.” The aviatrix dislikes to talk about her narrow escapes. There was one hot day last July when che ship “froze” at 3000 feet, “The plane ‘freezes,’ strangely enough, when the motor gets overheated,” she says. “The motor shuddered, and the propeller suddenly locked.”

Forced Landing

“I was above the mountains directly north of the flood area. Panicky for a moment, I controlled my fear, glided around until I picked out a corn field and landed, where I remained until the motor ‘thawed.’ ” An airplane is safer than an automobile, Mrs. Ross thinks. “One can always land,” is her safety motto. An automobile in heavy traffic endangers more lives, she says. Mr. and Mrs, Ross’ daughter, Betty Jean, who is to enter Shortridge this semester, has her air career already mapped. “She wants to be an air hostess,” Mrs. Ross explains, “No wonder the child has been reared on aviation. Maybe we can give her a plane for her graduation gift.” Betty Jean, at the age of 4, was responsible for the pilot's first plane ride. Her father, who had flown inh the Navy, refused to take her aloft unless Mrs, Ross accom- | panied them, “It was on a dare that I took my

Are Needed For Kidneys

Hard Working Organ May Be Subject to Variety of Diseases.

By DR. MORRIR FINHBEIN Pditor Ameriean Medien) Associntioh Journal, Again an idea of the amount of work that the kidneys do may be obs tained from the fact that more than 800 quarts of blood pass through them every day.

This eirculation of the blood through the kidneys enables them to perform their work in taking out the waste substances,

More than 07 per cent of the water is, of course, promptly passed back into the body so that the aver age person gets rid of 1% quarts of [Auld a day by way of the kidney.

It is a marvelous mechanism that makes it possible for the kidneys to take out just those substances that are dangerous to life and to pass back into the body those that are necessary for health, There are so many different forms of kidney disease that it is not really right to speak of it in that way, When a doctor examines a patient about whom there is soma doubt as far as the kidneys are concerned, he undertakes a nims ber of examinations to find out what is wrong. The fluid from each kidaey 1s examined separately. To get this fluid it is necessary to pass A small tube into the ureters from each wide where they come into the bladder. The fluid is examined chemically and microscopically, Moreover, the doctor tests the filnction of the kidneys by administering various dye substances and testing the extent to whieh they are passed out of the body by one kidney or the other or by both kidneys working at the same time, Bruises COntise Trouble The kidneys may fail inh thelr function due to all sorts of disturbs ances, They are sometimes dams aged by accidental bruises and abrasions, Sometimes they are ine jured by infections, Sometimes they fail to receive from the blood the nourishment that they should and as a result begin to change, It was thought that the passing of albumin from the kidney meant invariably a disease change, Nows adays it is known that albuminuria is not a disease, but a symptom, Under ordinary conditions pros fein does not appear in the urine, In some cases exceedingly great muscular work, exposure to severe cold, or the overeating of protein foods may temporarily result in the appearance of some albumin, Under these conditions, however, the albumin does not appear in all apecimens over a long period of time, but tends to disappear promptly,
