Young Folk Get Habit Os Fighting Wife ToidTo Mend Her Ways So Mate May Follow By VIRGINIA LEE FOLK CAN get. into the habit of quarreling as easily as anything. And, contrariwise, as Tweedie Dee says, they can make it a custom not to quarrel; to think twice, or count flve-and-twenty before saying an an gry word. Twenty-one-year old Brownie, who wrote to me yesterday, and her hus band, had gotten into the habit of squabbling, and in consequence they were thinking about a divorce. Now if they did not love each other, I suppose it would be the best thing to tell them to separate, but Brownie said in her letter that she loved her husband and he cared for her, and neither was interested in anyone else. Then it seemed the simplest, as well as the most sensible thing, to tell them to stop bickering, and see if they can’t be happy together. Now I told Brownie what I thought and said she should start right in by not saying any more mean things about her husband’s family, even if they were hard to bear. I’ll prob ably be accused o f'.'picking on the woman’’ again. But she was the one that wrote to me, and so she should taJce the medicine prescribed. You see, if she starts to reform it will give her husband something to think about, and he may conclude that he hasn’t been treating Brownie any too well. And when each begins to think that he is to blame and tries to do better, things are in a good way to mend. SARAH was invited out to dinner and requested to ask the blessing. She did not know one and wrote to ask me for one so that she may be prepared next time. “Bless us, our Lord, and these. Thy gifts, which we are about to receive from Thy bounty, through Christ, our Lord. Amen.” FINAL CONCERT OF PHILHARMONIC TUESDAY The final concert of the Philhar monic Orchestra will be given next Teusday evening at Lawton Memorial, it was announced by Frank Damore, director, this morning.

Testing Efficiency Os Bodily Control HOW SECONDARY NERVOUS SYSTEM WHICH ADJUSTS ORGANIC FUNCTIONS IS TRIED By LOGAN CLENDENING, M. D. WE SPOKE yesterday of our won derful secondary nervous system, not part of the brain and spinal cord and ordinary nerves, but the nervous system that works while we sleep and adjusts all the internal func tions of the body so that they will work smoothly, if it were not for this series of nerve ganglia we would be mixed up indeed —our digestive system might begin to move the wrong way; all the blood vessel in the kin might dilate so that most of the blood in the body was stag nated there, and the consequent re frigeration would drop our tempera tures to the point where life would be extinct. Indeed, occasionally we see exam ples of the paralysis of this system, as when a man receives a heavy blow in the abdomen and goes into a con dition known as “shock,” with pro fuse, clammy perspiration, deadly pallor ot the entire surface, feeble, rapid, heart beat, and unconscious ness. If death occurs not a single injury can be found in any internal organ to account for it. He had died a physiological death from paralysis of his automatic nervous system. A famous example, which made the system familiar to the newspaper readers of my youth, was when Fitz simmons hit Corbett in the solar plexus. The solar plexus of ganglia is part of the automatic nervous system. Sweating is One Test It U well that we have some tests to determine the efficiency of this controlling body. They are based on two or three of the most important functions of the automatic nervous system. One is control of sweating. It is possible to test very delicate ly the degree and amount of sweat ing in the body by painting the skin with an alcoholic solution of cobalt blue. The patient is then put into a heat cabinet which has an environ mental temperature of 130 degrees Fahrenheit. In the presence of mois ture the blue stain is changed to red, and the contrasting colors give a graphic representation of the amount an dlocation of sweating. For instance, there is a condition in which the blood pressure falls with changes of posture. In these pa tients, the sweat test shows that sweating occurs only on certain small areas of the skin surface, and this is undoubtedly associated with ir regular dilation of the Mood vessels of the body surface. Another test of measuring the ef ficiency of dilation or constriction of the small blood vessels is called the “cold presser test.” One hand is im mersed above the wrist in ice water for one minute. Reading of the blood pressure in the opposite arm is tak en every 15 seconds. An increase in the blood pressure should occur. Af ter the arm is removed from the water the blood pressure should, re turn to its normal level within two minutes. These, with several other teats, have been devised to give us informa tion about that important regulator of our functions, the automatic ner vous system.

What is more, they are going to have a style show to prove it. The girls jotted down their living expenses in a survey conducted by Y. W. C. A. The results showed that apart from board and room, clothes take most of the girls’ money. They figured they pay about $8 for an office dress, S2O for a coat and about $5 a pair for shoes. Hosier)' and other acces sories ran in proportion. Just to show the nice clothes they can afford on the estimated $22 weekly salary, the business girls will have a style show at one of the Y. o W.

Non-Talker Is Worry To Parents Mothers Needlessly Lose Sleep Over The Problem By GARRY C. MYERS, PH. D. Head Department Parent Education Cleveland College, Western Reserve University UNDULY long delay in speech de velopment may indicate deafness or mental retardation. Yet many a mother loses needless nights of sleep worrying over the baby who won’t talk. Perhaps the youngster has been urged too much to talk. Perhaps he has a good sign language well obey ed by others of the family- From the University of Oklahoma comes a study by Dr. M .M. Nice, of a girl who had a vocabulary of only five words at the age of two years, and only 49 at the age of three. But at the age of 40 months she began to talk like other children, and hence forth. developed speech very rapidly having at the age of four years a vocabulary of 1,135 words. When this child did talk her speech was not so much for conversation as for self expression. Dr. Nice believes that children learn through imitation to talk much earlier than they need to. Do you know that twins, as a rule, speak later than dp other children? Ap parently they can communicate with each other with little, or no conven tional speech. Wean at Nine Months Most pediatricians advise that the breast-fed baby be weaned at the age of eight or nine months. Now sup pose the baby were nursed 12 months or more? Suppose, on the other hand, he were nursed but a month or less. Dr. M. Freeman of Smith college made a study of mothers at an insti tute of child guidance. It was found that half the mothers whose infants nursed but a month or less had re jected their children, while two-thirds of the mothers who nursed their children for 12 months or longer were described as over-protective. This business of. weaning is more than a mere physical problem. From Smith college also comes a study of nail-biting, by L. E. Veitz. Nail-biters were compared with no nail-biters. It was found that girls bite nails most frequently between the ages of 8 and 15; boys between 9 and 12. (I wonder if nail-biting is not on the increase, thanks to in creasing strains of our civilization.) No relation to intelligence nor physical condition was found. Nor was evidence found to support the popular association of nail-biting with masturbation or introvertive tendencies. But there was evidence of much greater tension in the families of the nail-biters — as you and I would expect. STINGING CRITICISM IN RESIGNATION OF WPA ADMINISTRATION TACOMA, Wash., April 15— (TP) The WPA administrator for the state of Washington packed plenty of stinging criticism into his resigna tion. The administrator, George Cannon, pointed out that the WPA under his guidance had furnished jobs for 50,- 000 men and had spent only $14,- offo:ooo. On the other hand, Cannon said, other federal agencies in the state had spent $55,000,000 to employ 4,- 000 men. The difference, Cannon hinted, was too much for him to swallow. He handed in his resigna tion at the end of a Jefferson Day banquet speech, > " ■ __ Church Women Make Annual Tour of Historic Homes Friday' Mrs. F. B.
