"-i' &A niar.y organizations early in January, new officers t$c elected, and ' quite a number of citizens walk the streets somewhat, proudly, holdjng their heads quite high, with the knowledge that their associates have elevated them to some new position of responsibility. People have a right to be ple'asei) and complimented when they are elected to some of fice in a good organization, as it means that they are re garded as worthy of trust, and their friends and neighbors think 'they are capable of doing efficient work. Some who are thus chosen prove disappointing however. They can perhaps talk well, and they take hold of their new duties with zeal, but they lack the push and persistence to cany through what they have begun. And some very quiet appear ing people who have never shown what is in them, prove re markably efficient, and thoy friends had scarcely realized. ' January is a time 'of stock-taking in many concerns, and it is an anxious period for the owners and managers, who have worked and ventured all the year without any definite knowledge whether they have made or lost money. They may have felt they surely were getting ahead, but when the year's figures are finally totalled up, they find that iinsus- pected leaks and Wastes have their supposed profit has proved a dream. Business is not , the easy game that it looks from the outside, and the figures of many inventories prove that the concern has not mastered the principles of success. But business houses would better take account of stock regularly, as that is the only sure way to know whether their' estimates of cost are correct. .It is estimated that the 'total amount of building for 1926 has been about $6,200,000,000, which is only five per cent loss than in .1925, when an enormous construction was recorded. ,It had been predicted by many, that building for 1926 would show( a large decline, but the fact that it has kept up so well indicates the spread of prosperity, and that the American people are not satisfied with the old stand ards. The ideal of the country is a comfortable ljome for every family,' aiicl a modern . looking place to do business in, lind much' has been done in 1926 to realize that aim. RipplingKhymQ TWO VIEWS. .

Address Arthur .Dean, In care of The New a-He view. "Dear Dr. Dean: A week ago my girl friend had a date with a boy acqualntance and sne asked me to accompany them, as her friend bad a boy from anotber city visiting him. He thought it would be nice for all four to go out together, and, sh sh , I am not a flapper. "Well, we went. John, the boy I was with, wanted to wear my ring I liked him quite well and be minded bis p's and q's reason ably well, so be got my ring. It went on bis finger but It wouldn't come off. Gosh, bow I tiled but it wouldn't budge. He promised to come down Thursday, the following day, and return it. I waited Thurs day night but he didn't show up and hasn't yet. 'Since, then I found John re turned home. I can get the address if I wish to write. I do not tare a whit about the boy, but do care about my ring. It is a man's ring and is rather large for me, but i value it as a keepsake. What shall I do about it? Shall 1 write asking him to send it? That seems rather forward, but then I think it was bold of him to keep it, don't you? And after all it is my ring. "Do you imagine be thinks he has done something clever. What kind of a boy do you suppose be is? If the ring was any one, but the one jt is, 1 would not care so much, but it Is the only ring I have and I received it from a dear friend. 1 suppose you know by this time who that 1b, don't you? It is mans ring. No, not from any person, but from the only man friend a girl bas. What would dad and mother say if they knew a boy had that ling? Are there really any nice boys? It seems queer I have never met any. "Stay-at-Home-GIrl." Well, my dear, the lesson for you seems to be that first impressions cannot be relied upon. In the be ginning you liked the boy and now Have the other boy write John demanding the ring. Are there any real nice boys? Yes, and no. They are all about as good as the girls make them.

Fire Covering Time By Wickes Wamboldt A friend of mine walking along a street in a large city after one o'clock a. m., was stopped hy a policeman who asked: "What are you doing out at this time of night?" My fiiend .thinking that what ever he was doing at that time of night or nt any nther time, was none of tho officer's business, re plied facetiously; 'l have been playing marbles In the park.

Our Conversation Corner O Spanking Again Would a girl be apt to receive any injury by getting a smart spanking at the age of twelve with the hand on her bare skin? Some people say there might be serious results. It was done to me at that age and no harm, but much good, came of it. Searching Answer: A little iodine Is said to help goiter; a little salt may well be shaken on meat; a table spoonful of castor oil has its val ues; BUT be sure that your swank ing, while tt smarts, is only a lit tle close.

My husband thinks it's all fool ishness for our nine and eleven year old boys to play. He says when he was their age he was working on the farm. Wife. Answers: Eut where Is the farm for your boys? Play Is nature's method of devel oping the nervous and muscular systems which give the child con trol of the body. As children ad vance in age, they turn from the : spontaneous Makings and-aimless i'ambolings' of all young life to plays aud games Of nUrnose and cooperation.

"The reason," sale; the officer, "is that the law in this town places a man under suspicion If he is on the street after one o'clock at 'night, and gives the police the right to question him." "Oh," said my friend) "that is different." And ho told teh officer Just why he was getting home so late. Nevertheless, he didn't like it. The curfew law, and its varia tions, has never been popular. It has always been irritating. It has ever rubbed folks the wrong way. People always resent a govern ment's inteifering with what is considered personal privilege. The original curfew -was not rung with the idea of chasing the foks inside their houses or mak ing children go to bed. The prim al purpose of the curfew was fire protection. It was to make people see to their fires at a certain time each night. Curfew is from the French couvre-feu, which means cover fire. In the olden days the fire was built in the middle of the floor. There were iio chimneys; the smoke escaped through a hole in the roof; consequently, untended fires were a menace. So many happy-go-lucky persons would go to bed leaving their fires unguard ed, so many houses burned down, and so many persons burned up that civic authorities adopted the rule of requiring the inhabitants systematically to bunk their fires each night, when the town hall was rung; theu they would be sure not. to forget. But unquestionably the primi tive curfew was objected to, also. t)n the grounds that a man's home it down it was his own affair, belonged to him, and if he burnt J LOCAL NEWS J Visiting At Sutherlln Miss velma Golf is spending the wnelf enH ill Rmithei-lin visilinc with her parents and friends.

HOUSEWORK Housewives write to me with special problems, usually how to keep their hands nice. Not so mauy write as used to five years ago; even in this short space of lime, household conveniences have increased so that there is a notice able difference in the complaints about dry hands and cracked fin ger halls. . The greatest Inventions, I think have been the various kinds of au tomatic dishwashers. And the washing machines that do most of the laundry work. Yet, with all these, the hands that do house work must soak in soapy water more than is good for them, or must get themselveB full of dry dust and full stains from handling vegetables.

Those -of you who have been fol lowing the column will remember that over a year ago I wrote about the Pan American Sanitary Code which was formulated by the Unit ed States and Latin American re publics, on November 14, 1924, and which was ratified by the senate of the U.

Stand ardization of the collection of mor bidity (sickness) and mortality (death) statistics by the signatory governments. 3. Stimulation of the mutual interchange of informa tion which may be of value in im proving the public health and combatting the diseases of man. 4.

Answer: Scrape off all the wax you possibly can, then put a pieeo of blotting paper under and over the spot and press with a hot iron. If any traceB remain, they may be dissolved with gasoline or with benzine (not near heat or flame because of the danger of fire). The dye deposited by drip pings from colored candles can usually be removed by saturating the spot with alcohol, placing it over a pad of absorbent rags and sponging with a soft cloth wet with alcohol.
