DEAR JANE JORDAN--Do you think that the people of our small town should talk about the young people who have to leave it for a little fun? All-we have in the way of entertainment is a basketball game about once .a week, an ice cream store, and a show five miles away. There are many clubs in our town and they say they are going to do something about building up our town for the young people but they have not. i Our law here is always looking after the kids which is as it should be, but I don’t think anyone should drive around with the lights out watching

We kids haven't left our small town but once in six weeks. People who let their children go places talk about the others who stay home

be walk to school with them, or go

They just break their necks to talk about us but their children do the same things. As long as we do no wrong do you think people should say anything about the boys and. girls or their mothers? . DAUGHTERS AND SONS. # 8 #®

Answer—No, I don't think that the older generation should nose into the affairs of the younger generation, searching for scandal, making news out of every. simple incident, and inventing material for gossip. ° Nevertheless, ‘no matter what I think, ¢ - what you think, as long “are people, this is exactly what people will do; You have to put up with it, but you don’t have to be so disturbed about it.

Army Develops Cottons for

Polar Wear

Times Special NEW YORK, Dec. 24.—The army

climate clothes to an extent that will probably influence civilian apparel trends after the war. Right now it is unlikely that the kinds of cotton fabrics being used by the army will be available for civilians in sufficient quantities for any large scale production. At a recent meeting of the Cot-ton-Textile institute, Lieut. Col. Robert T. Stevens of the quartermaster corps described the progress already made. “War has made cotton mere than ever the universal fiber,” he said. “Arctic - clothing to most people means parkas and fur gloves, but a tremendous amount: of harctic clothing is made’ from cotton fabrics. The chief method of construction of such clothing is to cover soft, light layers of insulating material in a wind resistant cotton cover. “For centuries furs have been the cold climate garb and only recently has it been learned that an effective job can be done by wind resistant fabrics. Much of this work in the development of clothing for cold climate troops has been done by world : renowned figures who are currently on duty withthe army in Washington. . These men include Sir Hubert Wilkins, Dr. Steffanson, Lieut. Col. Robinson and associates, who have had wide mountain and cold climate experience, and Capt. Paul Siple, who was Admiral Byrd's geographer and. studied body heat loss and human metabolism in the Antarctic.”

But mostlv his salary’ was subscribed to public charity. “He did not profit personally a penny by any. salary payments to himself, not even for his own living expenses. It all went back to the public, : “In 1931, when the depression hit the land, President Hoover and the members of his cabinet took a voluntary 20 per cent cut in salary.

WHITE is one of the most honest and respected editors in the country, no one can doubt his statements. Mr. Hoover's aversion to profit in high places is to be commended and his aversion to publicity is even more praiseworthy. True to his Quaker heritage, he probably © acted without ‘thought of what his fellow men would think or say. # Throughout the earth, in a period of reversion to darkest barbarism, the Quakers are admired and loved because their actions are always motivated by the sort of altruism which never vaunts itself.

Health— Doctor Offers Some Rules for

Rules for using th principles in every day living are given by Dr. R. B. J.

Walk to and from work if possible. “Keep up your resistance by getting plenty of rest, eating the right food and using plenty of water internally and externally. “Keep away from people who are coughing and sneezing. “Use paper handkerchiefs and burn them, “Use paper towels as much as possible and avoid passing colds to others. “Handkercjgief your coughs and sneezes for the protection of others. “For your. nation’s welfare. and your own, observe these precautions during wartime when the government needs everyone at his post, in “lgood health, Io do his pars: ward helping to win the war,” = EVEN IN nncetes winter temperatures, which range from 18 to 30 degrees below zero Fahrenheit, for days at a time, people will be able to avoid colds with home t{emperatures down to 65 degrees, but only if they wear enough warm = clothing, Dr. Schoch warns, - Women in the home who are not Jvery active, elderly people and children, particularly, will need extra undergarments and overgarments for health this winter.
