THURSDAY, AUG. 2, Rural Spots Are Lure to City People

Handly W. Caraways Rejoice in Brown County Retreat.

By MARJORIE BINFORD WOODS

Brown County retreats are lifeSavers to many business executives who are tethered to their desks during these stifling dog days. “Even the ‘most dyed-in-the wool city. dwellers suddenly have found the “incessant honking and rushing of town life too much to be endured. Along about dusk on many weekday evenings one can spot several cars cruising along S. Meridian St. hill-bound for the southern part of the state. Mr. and Mrs. Handly W. Caraday, 3536 N. Meridian St., are enthusiastic about their haven. The cottage in the hills which lutes them southward is far removed from the usual rustic log cabin native to Brown County. Nestled among the tall trees on a 40-acre tract near Morgantown is their picturesque semimodern home built of black cinder blocks. White enameled steel casement windows outline the walls of the one-story structure which was designed by the Caraways.

Hangings Are Cretonne

Bright cretonne hangings add a cheerful note to the decorative scheme of the large sized living room which is paneled in knotty pine and furnished with maple. The gathering place of the crowds which frequent the Caraway cabin is the welcoming hearth of the spacious white stone fireplace built in the center of the room. Double-decker built-in beds are features of two corners of the con-crete-floored room. A cozy dinette with corner casement windows adjoins the living room and modern kitchen. At a supper party held there recently in celebration of Mr. and Mrs. Caraway's first wedding anniversary, Japanese lanterns were strung about the rolling grounds.

Guests Listed

Among the guests who gathered about the stationary picnic tables built high on a hill close by the house were Messrs. and Mesdames Hugh Bremerman, L. ‘O. Nicholson, Nathan McCune, George Poske, M. C. Rentsch and Dr. and Mrs. Earl W. Mericle. An outdoor stone fireplace is the building project which is ‘demanding Mr. Caraway's active attention this week, he says. Following its completion, the couple plans to vacation ‘every available week-end at their Brown County retreat, even when the snow falls.

tremely sensitive instincts.

with others. mean it rudely when we tell Mrs. Smith that Charles sleeps curled up like a hedgehog, or hates having his ‘ears washed. We are so ready to talk about our sons, that we don't consider we are telling any tales out of school. But mothers often lose the confidence of their children by talking, however innocently. A lad came to his mother with a very confidential affair of the heart. He was just a kid, but very gallantly he had helped a camp neighbor to hunt a lost wind-breaker. She had thanked him and asked him over to her house. And when he told his mother, he added half bashfully, “Gee, I'l go anywhere for a pretty girl like that. She's got wonderful eyes.”

Loses Confidence

His mother told the storv to a friend, who teased him. He says he will never tell his mother anything again, and 1 believe him. There is a holy-of-holies in every child's heart that permits no profanation. If a parent is permitted to lift the weil, then honor should seal that man's or woman's lips. Once a youth withdraws from confidence and keeps all to himself, it is usually because of fear. Not always fear of criticism on the part of his listener, but dread of betraval. Should one parent tell another what has come to him in confidence or confessional? Yes, and no. While parents should share the problems of their children in most cases, still there are sacred times when a child will geek comfort or help only from the one who is most sure to understand. Things he might hold to his heart forever if he thought the other parent were to know. Things better told than buried in his breast. I believe that instinct will answer this question, and that wise parents will choose well. Better for one to keep John's trust than for both to lose it all together. If both know it, then there is double need for preserving the precious thread. A breath may break it. To go back, a child must become accustomed to a certain amount of glare, naturally, but most children get more than their share. They will be surer and happier, like adults. if their private lives and thoughts are respected, and they are not exposed to jest or remark—like the monotonous goldfish, that might amount to more than they do, without a gaping audience.

Glands Hold

Key to Body Functioning

Of Internal and External Types, They Control Action of Organs.

(First of a Series)

By DR. MORRIS FISHBEIN Fditor, American Medical Journal

The internal glandular system of the human body is one of the most important from the point of view of successful living. These glands develop substances which are vital

since they control the actions of various organs; they initiate the functions associated with childbirth; they determine the body's growth. There are, moreover, other glands known as glands of external secretion which are equally vital since they are concerned with digestion and sex activities, The glands of external secretion include the liver, the pancreas, the salivary glands and the sex organs. Moreover, some of these organs also manufacture materials which go directly into the blood as ine ternal secretions. The glands which secrete internal secretions exclusives ly include the thymus, the pineal | gland, the thyroid and parathyroid | glands, the pituitary, the suprarenal glands and the sex glands.

Gland Secretions

A gland is any portion of the body that develops a secretion. The

breasts, for example, secrete milk; the salivary glands secrete saliva which moistens the mouth and con=tains ferments which help to digest starches. The stomach secretes hydrochloric acid and pepsin and these help digestion. The pancreas secretes both an internal secretion known as insulin which is concerned with the control of sugars, and an external secretion known as trypsin [which is concerned with the diges= | tion of proteins. These éxternal secretions are, of course, involved in many of he functions of the body. The internal secretions which go directly into the blood act frequently at remote points in the body from the gland by which they are secreted. Indeed the glands of internal secretion have been considered to be an interlocks ing chain which governs all of the actions of the human organism. Overgrowth of some of the glands may result in the appearance of giants, underactivity by these glands results in the development of Changes in the sex glands may make women look like men or

When a call comes in for infor- | mation about an American in the | danger zone, Mrs. Blessing makes |

out a card with the name of the | individual about Whom the inquiry | is thade and that of the person call- | ing. A cable inquiry goes to the consul in the area. It usually takes a couple of days to get a reply. Meanwhile, if other calls are received about the same individual. additional notations are made on

Spain has been even worse, however, because Americans were scattered a'l over the place. The American colony in China is more con-

centrated. Stories haven't begun to come in

about Americans needing aid to get out of the Chinese war area, but there have been plenty from Spain. Though the State Department has no fund for bringing stranded cit=izens back home, in emergencies the Red Cross provides money in small amounts. Most of the Americans who have been evacuated from China have been able to pay their passage to the Philippines. Where they are unable to pay, they are asked to take passage money on a loan basis and to give a note to the Red Cross for repayment later. Most such loans are repaid.

Mind Your

Manners

Test your knowledge of correct social usage on answering the following questions, then checking against the authoritative answers below: 1. When a husband goes shopping with his wife, should he carry her parcels? 2. Should a husband step into an elevator first or allow his wife to precede him? 3. Should a husband guide his wife across a street or hurry ahead, leaving her to cross alone? 4. Do a host and hostess shake hands with departing guests? 5. Should a husband and wife ask a third person to settle a dispute between them?

What would you do if= You and your wife are taking a woman friend for a ride in your car— (a) Let the guest sit in the front seat and your wife in the back? (bh) Let your wife sit in the front seat and your guest in the back? (¢) Let the women sit together in the back seat?

” ” ” Answers

1. Yes. 2. Allow her to go first. 3. Guide her across. 4. It is gracious. 5. No, it places the third person in a very awkward situation.

Best “What Would You Do” solution—(¢). Unless the guest is a very old lady and the front seat is more comfortable than the back. Then put the guest in front. Or if you are all voung you may prefer to ride three in the front seat. (Copyright, 1937, NEA Service, Inc.)

The glandular | mechanism of mankind varies in 108 [activity during these periods. Unquestionably in the first period | =that of growth up to maturity-= | the glands which control growth are of the greatest importance.
