The aviation committee of San Fran cisco’s energetic chamber of com merce means to darken the sky with airplanes over Los Angeles one day this fall. The C. of C. committee an nounced today that every registered flier from California’s airports will be invted to fly to Los Angeles Sept. 5 for the three-day national air races. This mass flight will be the most spectacular feature of the races. San Francisco thus will co-operate with Los Angeles and at the same time call attention to the importance of avia tion at San Francisco’s Hamilton air port and the new 115.000,000 seaplane base bei ngbuilt at Alameda. Do you know the origin of the Oriental ejaculation, "By the beard of the Prophet’’? Orthodox Moham medans wore beards and hairs from a beard tucked into sealing wax con ferred finality to a document, for a beard was a symbol of faith and honor. Consequently, "by the bread of the Prophet’’ meant the sacred truth.” SAVANNAH DAILY TIMES, MONDAY, JULY 2C1938 CAMP LIFE EXCELLENT VACATION DR. CLENDENING TELLS WHY IT’S VALUABLE FOR YOUTH By LOGAN CLENDENING, M. D. I HAVE just seen a group of little girls marching along by the side of the ocean. They had been singing a song from away down the beach, and as they got near me and passed me I found they were singing about what a whale of a fine camp they were at tending and how it could knock the socks off any other camp in baseball. They were a right little, tight little group of amalgamated interests. They were all compact of the spirit of co operation. One of the fine and wholesome changes in modern life is th eprae tice of sending boys and girls away to camp for a month or more in the summer. About a million boys and girls In America take advantage of this health measure. And counting hours of sleep, the time they spend in camp amounts to the time spent in school for a year. This country is especially blessed in climate for outdoor life in the sum mer. There are thousands of places still sufficiently primeval, with weath er conditions not too not or cold, where a month to six weeks you can be assured of continued good weather most of the time, with a minimum of rainy days. I know of no other country where the same conditions prevail. In most parts of Europe the campers have to be very hardy to en dure the wet and cold, even if any secluded spots could be found. Preparation Important But since so much time is spent in camp, it is all the more necessary to see that it is well spent. Prepara tion for camp is just as important as preparation for school. I have made a point in an earlier article this year, to call attention to the necessity for anti-typhoid vaccination before enter ing camp. The same applies to diph theria and small pox vaccination. The medical examination and phy sical fitness test as a preliminary to camp life is a most valuable thing at exactly this age. And .it should poirit the w r ay to the camp director for the individualization of camp activities which each child needs.. ... The development of strong, healthy bodies is a great advantage in pro tecting against the exposure of cold and other infections and the .strain of a year of school, But all these activities must be individualized. Some of the campers are fit for limitless exercise. Others need the emphasis placed on rest. In some instances, an extra lunch in mid-morning and mid-afternoon is necessary to attain proper physical fitness. In others, dietary restriction may bring the fat boy or fat girl home at the proper weight. . \ They should all be trained In a variety of sports. An adolescent should be skilled in half a dozen sports so that he can win the good will of the gang, and not make a nuisance of himself by his ineptitude. The group spirit is a splendid fruit of this camp life, and makes for a healthier spirit in the America of tomorrow. ning at 8 o’clock. "Aladdin" is the play to be pre sented and the proceeds will be used for the scholarship fund of the so ciety. Mrs. Ralph West is senior-president of the Colonel Henry Lee society and Miss Marguerite Bowden is junior president. HUBERT EXPLAINS WORK OF CENTER Principal J. W.

MYERS WOULD BE BETTER DAD CITES LIST OF WISHES TO IMPROVE HIS PAR ENTHOOD By GARRY C. MYERS, PH. D. Head Department Parent Education, Cleveland College, Western Reserve University When my child does something I consider wrong, I wish I might al ways do exactly the rignt thing. Once the matter has been properly dealt with, I wish I might at once blot out entirely from my nervous system every trace of memory about it, and conduct myself toward him as if. nothing had happened. I wish I had ability to "put away childish things,” and act toward my children as if I were really grown up. _ If things in my day’s work prove disagreeable, I wish I might never carry them to my family, but instead I might diffuse a happy, hopeful at titude when I am home with them. I wish I might be always worthy to be welcomed, and that my coming home might always prove a boon to my loved ones . . I wish that every day I might have something interesting and worth while to contribute to the family’s conversation, that I might have eyes and ears for gathering wisdom and picking up humorous incidents, and might acquire dexterity at relating them at the family’s dinner hour. Also I wish I might be able to train myself sufficiently in courtesy and £elf-control to be a good listener and learner in my home, so that all the other members of the family might be stimulated also to impart wisdom and laughable experiences, to express themselves with ease, and feel them selves continually worthy members of the family group. Wants to Be Alert I wish, moreover, I might never act as a machine, listening or answering abient-mindedly, but that I might ever be alert, lending my entire at tention to what may be said to me by the youngest or the oldest of my family; that I might never seem in different nor act as if I preferred not to talk or to be talked to. I should like to learn to use good English in my home, to express my ideas clearly and straightforwardly, and to acquire the gift of saying usual things in unusual ways. I wish every word and sound and syllable 1 uttered might be made with clearness and precision, in a quiet, low-pitched voice, so that others of my family might not be annoyed nor unduly ex ercised when listening to me, and that they might imitate attractive speech in me. Furthermore, I wish that I might prove to be charitable and tolerant, Suits Will Be Popular \For Autumn Wear Summer Menus By MRS. MARY MORTQN Menu Hint Salmon Loaf Fresh Spinach Sliced Tomatoes and Cucumbers Chocolate Souffle ICed Coffee No potatoes are suggested in this menu, as during the hotr weather I think it a good plan to cut down on the starches occasionally. Spinach takes the place of potatoes today, -and the tomatoes and- cucumbers are sliced and served together with your favorite salad dressing, but preferably French. A little green onion may be sprinkled over them. The chocolate souffle is simple, but delicious, or chocolate ice cream may be substi tuted. ■ • ... Today’s Recipes ‘ CHOCOLATE SOUFFLE Two squares chocolate, one cup sugar, four eggs, dash salt,, one-half teaspoon va nilla. Melt chocolate over hot water, stir in the sugar, blending the two well. Beat the egg whites with salt until stiff.. Fold in egg yolks, also beaten. Then, fold in chocolate mix ture. Turn into a greased pan, set the pan in another containing hot water and bake in a moderate oven, 350 degrees Fahrenheit, until firm, from 40 minutes to an hour. FACTS ANP FANCIES Let’s Eat in the Open Serve out-of-door meals often dur ing the summer, suggests Esther- Kimmel in July Pictorial Review, but do not expect to get by with picnic foods as a steady diet. Stick to the three squares a day and keep the pic nic gayety in your service. Everyone expects to share the work on a pic ric, so you won't have to do much coaxing to persuade all hands to turn to rnd help. To keep the work down to a minimum, plan ways of carry ing many things at once. The old fashioned lazy-dalsy, with its salt, pepper and condiment containers filled and ready to use, will be of as sistance. Perhaps yon can provide a waterproof and dustproof cupboard where the table linen and silver may be stored for these airy meals. Above all, don’t run yourself ragged trot ting back and forth. Instead, for each member of the family provide an inexpcns? ve tray, and parcel out enough creamers, sugars, salt and pepper shakers to go around. And have each diner act on the self-serv ice plan from the time the filled tray is claimed inside the house un til it is put back where it belongs. Whatever the dishes or the tray may be, s:e that they are appetizingly filled. Plan only hot dishes that will bighearted and broadminded. "With malice toward none and charity for all.” If I keep on wishing long enough I ought to be able to grow to be a better parent. stay hot, and cold ones, cold. And do all your buttering beforehand, for a runny lump of butter is not ex actly tempting. Dried Beef a Favorite Dried beef may be served in any number of ways: Creamed and served in a baked potato half which has had enough of the center scooped out to make a cup is one of the favorite ways. Or the creamed dried beef frequently served inside a noodle or bread dressing ring. Even when creamed, you’ may want to crisp the dried beef first. If so, simply heat it in butter until the edges curl, then add it to a cream sauce and season with a bit of paprika and a few small button mushrooms. TO BE BEAUTIFUL LEGS MUST BE FLAWLESS By GLADYS GLAD ("America's Most Famous Beauty”. That new young. cinema siren, Blanca Vischer, who possesses a pair of the shapeliest' legs in all of Holly wood, says that she always keeps them smooth through the use of pumice stone. When taking her daily bath, Blanca rubs her shapely limbs with a smoot piece of pumice stone, and she firmly believes that any lass who wishes to go stockingless, or to wear those lacey mesh hose during the summer, should make sure that her legs always are as smooth and soft as they are shapely. There are many girls who, )lke Blanca, prefer to go around stock ingless during the hot weather. In deed, the fad is becoming so popular that one enterprising manufacturer recently concocted a preparation to take the place of stockings. You smooth it on your legs and it looks just as though you had stockings on. Yet at the same time your limbs really are bare. This preparation is a creamy compound that dries quick ly. And although it is easily removed when desired, it is definitely water proof if not rubbed or smeared. Legs Should Be Flawless There are many ways of removing superfluous hair safely from the legs, that no woman ever should neglect this. Ordinary pumice stone may be used for the purpose of removing it, and need just be rubbed briskly over the legs. A razor may also be used. And there are any number of good depilatories that are effective for clearing the legs of superfluous hair. Rough, goosefleshy skin also is ta boo when the legs are bare or clad in mesh hose. The skin must be smooth and clear if they are going to be sub mitted to exposure. It is not difficult to keep the leg cuticle in good condi tion, either. When tair.g your nightly bath, simply scrub your legs well with Jackets Short Or Long As You Please By LISBETH From present indications the suit win be as popular this autumn as it was the past spring. And, as then, it may be chosen with a full-length coat, or a three-quarters or hip-length, as it suits you. When, fall approaches and you turn from your airy summer frocks to cos tumes of wool, consider the suit worn by Gertrude Michael, right. It is a dark green jersey—and grene is go ing to be very good this autumn —and it is t rimmed with black Persian lambo, a standin gcollar of same, also a band at the bottom of th ejacket. Frogs of braid fasten the jacket all the way down the front, and a small Cossack hat of the Persian is perched daintily upon her blond head. Prefer Blue Wool? Or maybe you would rather have a suit something lie the one the same player wears at the left of our illus tration. It consists of a navy blue Wool frock and a three-quarters length tunic with wide lapels outlined in red leather. The cuffs have the same trim ming, and there is a very wide red leather belt which gives a decided air to hr costume. Her navy felt is also trimmed with red leather, and a handsome silver fox scarf com pletes her costume. Notice the height of her hat and the bow at the top of the crown. That, my dears, is the very latest line in chapeaux. Gives some of us something to think about for the remander of the summer, doesn’t it? What about the very tall, very thin girl with the long, peaked face? However, according to present advices, she, too, will be taken care of by the clever designers of our millinery. As in suits, so with skirts. You have your choice. If you like yours Alim and straight, you can have them. B*ut the newer line is flared and full. Your pencil-silhouette skirt may have to be slit a bit at the side or front, or wherever seems wisest, but your rippled, circular model gives you plenty of freedom when you float about. Waistlines have taken to soaring. We were certain they would, for in the spring they took an upward lift reminiscent of the empire period. A good many of the new dresses have high waistlines, but care has oeen taken that they shall not make the figure look heavy. Thanks to the clever shaping of these new dresses, plus tl|> new cor sets, which give the correct line, the long torso effect essential to the suc cess of the .empire line is obtained. . FINAL TRIBUTE TO SENATOR MURPHY DUBUQUE, lowa, July 20 (TP)— Friends and relatives will pay final tribute to U. S. Senator Louis Mur phy today at funeral services to be held in Dubuque.

After the bath, dry them well and then massage a generous quan tity of cold cream, nourishing cream or pure olive oil into them.
