The Question Box

Q—Where does the best quality hair for wigs come from?

A—In normal times 'it comes from France, Belgium, Bohemia and Germany. At present, however, little is being imported from Europe.

Q—Ho can I prevent homemade bread 1 getting mouldy? A—To keep bread in the best condition, store it when thoroughly cool in a clean, covered and wellventilated container, in a cool place. Spoiled bread should be disposed of as soon as discovered, and the bread container should be washed, scalded and thoroughly sunned to prevent the infection of fresh bread.

Economical Wardrobe

. ONE BASIC DRESS that can be worn in several ways in an excellent choice for the college girl’s wardrobe. Consider, for instance, a plaid wool suit with boldly’ pleated skirt and well-tailored jacket that may be worn with casual | blouses or swealers. To alternate, a separate bib front with suspender straps buttons onto the skirt, which is worn over a wool jersey shirtmaker blouse in a plain color picked up from the plaid.

Rule for Charm

PLAIN WALLS CONTRASTED with patterned draperies make a pleasing. room.. Or if the walls are papered with a large ‘patterned: design, use a plain fabric for the curtains—one enhances fhe beauty of the other. For instance, a living room with glipcovers and curtains of a splashing bouquet glazed chintz, might have walls and textured rug of two shades of soft blue picked up from the chintz, and gold accents on mirror .and incidental adcessories.

Surgeon Tells How to Choose Your Doctor

A large part of the agitation for ||!

socialized medicine would disappear if people knew how to choose their

doctors, Dr. Terry M. Townsend of ||f iiest

New York predicted today before members of the Methodist Hospital White Cross Guild. He spoke on “Who Is Your Doctor?” at a meeting this afternoon in the Nurses’ home. “Integrity should be the fundamental basis of choice,” Dr. Townsend said, “Beware of the doctor who has a special cure. He is fraudulent. Cures and new methods of treatment become known to all the profession with great rapidity. In-

variably the man who pretends to. special information or special skill!

or special methods, not known to others and kept secret for his patients alone, is a charlatan.” “Fortunately,” Dr. Townsend continued, “you are not likely to pick one of the scapegoats of the profession, for they are a small minority. But if your doctor is a member of

an unorthodox group, ask him what

university teaches his method and whether he studied elementary physics, chemistry and physiology and went any farther than high school before he took up the study of healing by short-cut methods.” Dr. Townsend advised going to & general practitioner first and to a specialist only upon the. former's recommendation. “Reople who go from bne kind of specialist to another and then complain about the high cost of medical care might have saved trouble and expense by going to their family doctor in the beginning,” he explained. : A doctor's: membership in his county medical society,’his skill and experjence and his personality were named by the speaker as factors in his usefulness to patients. “You are in better hands with a man you like than with one you dislike, other things being equal,” Dr. Townsend said.

Dr. Philip M. Bail, dean of the Butler University College of Education, emphasized the need for more adult education last night in a talk before the Mutual Service Association at the Propylacum. The nation’s population trend Tesults in fe uty old-age groups, he pointed out. “The problem which confronts us today involves not only pre-training

Dr. Bail suggested the architectural field and household appliances manufacture. “Architects could very well have the assistance of a& woman experienced in home training and house planning,” Qr. Bail explained. “The locations of electric outlets, proper allocation of wall space, the design of closets and cupboards might well be the work of such an assistant. There is opportunity for women trained in the design of electric refrigerators, vacuum cleaners and similar household equipment.” The Mutual Service Association elected new officers following the banquet: ‘Mrs. Bernadine McAree,
