'ELECTING TllE 'OFFICERS.
"-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.

"Dear Dr. Dean: A week ago my

a boy from anotber city visiting
him. He thought it would be nice
for all four to go out together,

"Well, we went. John, the boy
I was with, wanted to wear my

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

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.

to help goiter; a little salt may
well be shaken on meat; a table
spoonful of castor oil has its val

brute will get the idea that 1 en

My husband thinks it's all fool

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 mere satisfaction
of muscular activity changes to a

attempt to dig into his personal
affairs?"
"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

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. '
The housewife must . learn to
work with gloves on, there's no
other way to keep her hands soft
and white and clean and well mani
cured. Once she can wash dishes
as easily with rubber gloves as
with her hands bare, she n-aed not
worry whether she has an auto
matic dishwasher or not. And she
can do a great deal ot laundry
work, and all scrubbing of paints
and floors, with rubber gloves.
They should be heavy, and sev--eral
sizes too large, so they can
be slipped on and oft easily.
Other housework, and gardening
and silver cleaning, can he done
with white cotton gloves, having
leather finger protectors, or for

THE FIRST PAN AMERICAN CONFERENCE Or"
' NATIONAL DIRECTORS OF PUBLIC HEALTH
Tho saying "Tho world is a
small place after all!" has a much
greater significance than merely
that of the mipxpecteci meetings
with friends or friends of friends
at out-of-the-way places.
As we well know, one part of the
human body cannot be seriously
affected without affecting the en
tire body; no more can one part
of the country be seriously affect
ed without eventually affecting
the welfare of the whole world,
or. at least, the countries closely
connected.
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. S. in 1925. Briefly I
want to review some of the main
objects of their code as written
under its first article.
1. Prevention of international
spread of communicable infec
tions of human beings. 2. Stand

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. Standardizaion of the preventive
measures against communicable
diseases employed at places of en

If silver cleaning is awkward with
the canvas gloves that are ideal
for gardening or painting the
house, or painting your ear, or any
such work use old leather or kid
gloves. Silver polish or powder is
extraordinarily penetrating, and It
certainly plays havoc with a mani
cure, but it can't got through
leather. Keep lemons bandy to re
move stains and a lotion for dry

Ing to just the coarse or dark hairs

in the formula, which is twice or
three times a week. Always aim
to get the tonic on the scalp with

Hi. l.: how can wax oe remov
ed from fabrics?"
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.
Mrs. L.: "We uso the new very
low style of candlestick on our
dinner table, with fruit bowl to
match, but tho, trouble with tln'B
two-inch-high candlestick ;,mlno
glass) is that when 4he long whip
candles burn down half way thoy
look to oshort to be used. This
makes considerable waste. One
hates to throw away a candle that
is only half used yet I can think
of no solution."
Answer: It happens that I, too,
nse the new low style candle
stick, with ithe glass flower or
fruit bowl as a centerpiece. I also
was puzzled by your problem for
a time until I thought of tho plan
of buying inexpensive tall glass
candlesticks which match my fruit
bowl very well, and which I can
uso with the bowl when tho tall
candles burn down so that they
no longer look well In the short
candlesticks. -
