GIVING THE CLASS FAILURE A CHANCE -

Almost every school grade will have a puple who has registered failure to pass examinations dur- ing the past few weeks. These class failures constitute problems which often do not terminate with school life, but mark the adult of which the pupil is the embryo, cluttering society with misfits and ineffici- ents.

It might, or might not, help to solve these problems if the blame for them could be laid at the door of those responsible for them. It is to be feared. however, that school life discovers the mistakes too late for cure,’ since s0 little individual attention is possib‘e under the usual educational routine. The pupil too often continues to miss his grade year after year, until he leaves school with a. sense of failure,

This calls for reiteration of all the homemade concoctions and their value to a girl's beauty. The one cream had better be an all- purpose variety that can be used for cleansing either before or after soap and water and which will serve as a tissue cream as well. The benefit your skin gets from this depends on the amount you leave on while you sleep. Al- low a thin film.to remain at least one night a week. To eliminate lines around eyes and across fore- head, leave a generous layer on these spots.

The lotion ought to be a skin tonic or a good hand softener. If you decide on the former, use olive oil or the all-purpose cream on hands three nights a week. If the latter, substitute ice water or cold, slightly diluted witch hazel for the skin tonic. Other‘ items must include foundation, rouge powder, lipstick and manicure accessories, of course.

Don't feel sorry for yourself when you hear others talk about the marvellous commercially pre- pared masks they have discovered You can mix uncooked oatmeal with milk or plain water, smooth the mixture on face and neck. let it dry, remove with warm water and get good results.

marriage and causes h ands and wives to inflict grievous wrohas upon each other. And it explain! why so many good men and women are such bad husbands and_ wives. Doubtle-ss most husbands and wives who make marriage a hell on earth to

their mates could plcaddn cxtenuation of their crime that they did not realize the wrong they were committing. They knew that they them- selves could not stand the brutality, tho tyranny, the injustices, the little cruelties they were imposing uponlthcir husbands’ or wives, but they thought that the husbands and wives were so dlflerent that they would not resent ill-treatment. ' ,

I

As an illustration of this you can take the fact that men universally believe that women enjoy being slaves, and that they like to bo bossed about as if they were morons who diq not have enough sense to decide any subject for themselves. Every man knows that the thing that is most precious to him in all the world, the thing that ~ho would rim-it for and die for, is his personal liberty. Ho knows" that he would be perfectly miserable if he had to ask any onc's permission to buy a new necktie, or go to see his mother, or join a club. “ ..

, Yet men who really love their wivcsand want to make thorn happy impose this servitude upon them. There are plenty of married women whose husbands are jailers and who have no more freedom of action than if they were locked up in a cell. Their husbands buy their clothes for them, go over every item on the grocery bill, open and read their letters and settle every matter that comes up in life according to their taste and not their wives’.

It is the same way about money. The average American husband isn't stingy to his wife. He is generous w her. But it is like pulling his eye teeth for her to got an allowance from him. And this is-just because he can't understand that financial independence is as ocess y to her self-respect as it is to his. Ho couldn't endure to go tn even the most liberal of fathers every morning and ask him for carfare and cigarette andlunch money. He would loathe himself if he had to flatter and fawn and resort m wiles and skulldutscry in order to wheedlo a new suit of clothes out of father.
