Henry Abby, from the Christian Science Monti or
Tips From Garden Note Book
For many years we have had
-window boxes hut none have been
bo successful as the ones that we
used last summer. These were a
joy from early summer until well I
into the rail, ami tho the cneei i
was simple to achieve. It was quite
unusual. In the back part of the
boxes we planted rosy morn petu
nias nnd in the front, blue lobelia.
We used a few plants of variegated
vinca for a green trailer over the
front. The plants blossomed pro
fusely thruout the summer and tho
boxes were the admiration of all
our friends and acquaintances. As
the boxes were continually exposed
to the rays of the sun, we filled ;
them first with sandy loam nnd i
then covered it with a two-inch
layer of leaf mold. Well-rotted
manure could also have been used.
Another combination that we
found very effective for an up
stairs window, was rosy morn pe
tunias backed with yellow snap
dragons. Wo might have-hud bet
ter success with our window boxes
if the plants had been pot-grown
rather than box-grown. Mrs. 1
K., New York.
Peonies can be kept long after
the season if they are cut just be
fore the bud breaks and put into
the ice box or a very conl cellar.
Tiring them out to the light as you
want them ami put them into

When digging around in your

nails that housework makes it Im-

It. iritv.nn u.A,.i,
Is hard on the hinds, hut It Is also
true that n few minutes of daily
care will keep their in presentable
condition. The care of the nails Is
not n matter of good looks alone,
for neglect Is likely lo result in
"hangnails."
"These offer little openings thru
which Infectious matter may enter
and do n good deal of damage, and
It Is possible for blood poisoning to
result from Infection thru one of
these, apparently insignificant la
cerations." says Howard Kox, M.U.,
In tho "Manual of Personal Hy
giene." "The epidermis overhanging the
root of the null should be pressed
back once or twice a week with
some convenient Instrument. For
cleaning the nails, nothing but
soap, warm water, and the nail
brush should be employed., The
penknife should not be used In
place of the nail clfyiner, ns it
scrntches the under surfacnf the
nail and makes a place for the
lodgement of dirt."

This department on pome
Decoration Is tor the benefit of
all women who have household
problems to solve. Queries per

may be addressed to Miss Sited

ment of the Mail Tribune.
Query. What Is thentrlcnl gauze

T. L. D.
i Answer. It is n loosely woven
material made of linen nnd founil
, most commonly In the natural
j color. It may he embroidered
! with wool or finished with a hrald
or fringe and used for curtains In
an Informnl room.
Query. Is green n satisfactory
color for a kitchen? Mrs. I'. 11.
Answer. There are many green
kitchens nnd those who hrfVe them
find them cool and Interesting,
tlreen combines well with almost
every other color, but there are
many other combinations and col
ors from which one may choose.
Query. My ceilings are high.
Shall I bring my draperies to the
floor? Mrs. O. 11.
Answer. Yes. If you wish to
;,nRB uur ce..iiiK
them just to the bottom of the
apron under the window. Knch
room must be treated as an indi
vidual problem.
Query. How far from the floor
should "pictures be hung? Mrs. S.
n. t.
Answer. A general rule is to
hang a picture so that the center
of Interest in the picture is about
6 or G'a feet from the floor then
a person, when stnnding looks di
rectly at the picture.
Query. Should the fireplace be
made the center of Interest when
nrranging furniture In a room?
Mrs. P. R. C.
Answer. Yes. Usually It Is the
dominant center about, which the.
family life naturally, groups itself
but other lesser groups should he
arranged all about the room.
New Bathing Suits
Modified for U. S.
PARIS & Hackless bathing
suits have American buyers puz
zled. Ileach regulations In the
United States would make wear
ing of the new Parisian models
a hazardous venture.
Alost of this season's one-piece
suits are cut down to deep decol
letes in back. Some of the slashes
go to the waistline and leave the
back entirely exposed to sun or
sea. .
Buyers for some of New York's
big houses are having "dickies"
fitted into the V nnd U shaped
openings. By using contrasting
colors they get something of the
backless effect. Other buyers have
ordered the suits made with backs.
Still another method Is to mutch
each backless bathing suit with a
beach robe, which will hide the
otherwise exposed area.
There are many black and white
bathing suits In the latest collec
tions. Some of the suits meant for
actual swimming, and not merely
for sun-bathing, are one-piece
wool jersey affairs with modernis
tic designs knitted Into them.
Most of the suits are striking in i
pattern.

established it self sows freely and
a supply will always be available.
The Individual flowers are small
somewhat resembling the forget-
me-not but they are produced In
large nnd graceful sprays. It Is
beautiful material for cutting. It
will grow In partial shade ns well
ns In full sun. The plants reach a
height of -eighteen Inches and
should tie spaced a foot apart.
It makes a beautiful fed or mass

dozen plants scattered about give n

The May number of the School
Hoard Journal carries a three

Med ford Continuous Census," by
Mrs. It. II. Bryant, director of tho
census. This is an article well
worth reading ami may be obtain
ed in typed form at the superin
tendent's office.
Other pleasant publicity has
been gained by this continuous
census a plan originated by
Superintendent Hod rick and car
ried out through his office by the
aid of the Parent-Teacher associa
tions of, the olty under the leader
ship of Mt;s. II. If. Bryant, who is
also In charge of the state work
along litis 11
A number of cities Including
Portland have requested data nn
t he continuous census as carried
on lu .Med ford and all are heartily
In favor nf the plan.
The plan, briefly, Is as follows:
The city is divided into sub-districts
in each of which a resident
enumerator is "on the Job."
A director appointed annually by
assists tho enumerators and keeps
the system alive nnd functioning.
Kvery time n new family with
children moves Into the district,
the enumerator calls, lists tho
children on tho proper blank nnd
malls It direct to the city school
superintendent.
A continuous census helps to
keep the school orflce Informed ns
to the shifting of pupils within the
district and furnishes valuable
data when school opens In Kuptem
her.
The enumerators are not re
sponsible for the enforcement of
the compulsory education law. Hut
It does help to discover the chil
dren who might otherwise remain
In the district a year without en
tering school or the authorities be
ing awdre of their presenc. It aids
also in the summer round-up.
Andther 'result of parent-teacher
.co-nperattun In the continuous
census work ns stated byour city
school superintendent, Mr. Hed-
irlrk, is:
! "Tho continuous working Hit
active resident enumerators, dis- I
trlbuted ns they nre nt Intervals of
every few blocks, has operated to
crento a greater Interest in regular
school attendance throughout
every section of the city. It has
.decidedly quickened both tho com
munity consciousness and con

NO LOAFING IN CHRIST'S KINGDOM
lly Hoy. Thomas I
A serious threat to our national life is the extraordinary
aversion to work encountered everywhere.
Aoll is now looked upon as a degradation, a form of servi
tude to be performed unwillingly nnd by compulsion.
With the highest wages known In history wo have reached
the lowest efficiency on the pari of workmen. Provided with
tho most marvelous machinery ever devised, increasing man's
capneity many tfold, yet the world's production is probably at
its lowest level.
Many nations nro on tho verge of ruin, their debts unpaid,
their budget. unbalanced, their currency depreciated, their
credit Impaired.
Christ can cure this malignant infection. To the unwill
ingness to work that is such a pronounced feature in modern
life, ho sot nn example by laboring from his earliest youth as
a carpenter. He realized the primary law of Clod: "In the
sweat of thy brow shalt thou eat bread.' lie tells us that
labor is a condition of life Itself. "If any man will not work,
neither let him eat."
(iod recognizes no Idle class; nn loafers shall be rewarded
with citizenship In the kindom of heaven, for at the lust
Judgment Christ will "render to every man according to his
works."
