We recall now having looked in a window at rows of empty desks on a recent excursion and comparing the con- finement there with the freedom of the world without, gal-bed now in its fresh Summer beauty and being happy in the thought that at last pupils and teachers had come to a well earned rest. Long days. yet experience reminds us quite fleeting, but lovely lie in the vacation land wherever it may be — time in which to recit- perate in body. mind and spirit, so as in come back with new out- look and determination to the school ycai‘ ahead. Nor does the band of time, leave the school- rooms untouched. as the seasons roll. Ncw friccs will be there at re-asscmbliri". small shy ones en- :ering for a first day. while the L'i(l0‘.'3. "the big boys and girls" of last term will have gone from the old familiar room to other inter- ests that fit in with the plan of life. \\'illCll knows no pausing, but continues to more steadily on- ward beating all in its train. t O O Jamie came yesterday. with a gift of candy in his pocket and without intention of any extended stay. But when evening came when a decision must be reached "if it's all right with you" he remarked "I think I'll stay a day or two.“ It is, of course “all right". in fact a most acceptable settlement alivays to James and me. On succeeding visits we are a bit surprised to find him more mature, this time at a boyish stage in growth which considers grand-daughter's queries rather childish, and the replies too ob- vious to be explained. And she continues to hang on to his every utterance and action with admira- tion and respect. "He's one great fellow. don't you think?" she com- mented this morning to me. grate- ful to have found a playmate to share her interests of the day. in the main. he enjoys being with her, though he finds it beneath his dignity now to take a "trike" to pasture in the ribbon-grass by the old stone door-step. nor does he get a like amusement to her in tying it to a hitching-rail when a new enthusiasm presents itself to the two. “Around the neck!" she ordered him in a concerned voice. on one occasion today. "Ha —it has no neck!" he laughed "it's a ‘trikei and ‘trikes’ have no necks!" “But it has a neck" she said “for isn't it my horse —- that's grown up from a foal!" And once we came running at the sound of a loud wailing. "What's happened?" we gasped fearful of an ill. "We've been away, getting my horse shod" she exclaimed in her tears "and we called to the store to get ice-cream . . . and Jamie ate it all up, without giving me one bit of it! Wasn't he a greedy fellow?" It was all :0 real. we found it hard to believe Jamie when he chuckled. from the shade of a shrub on the lawn: ‘T-fa!" he nid shyly "there was no ice- cream" and he laughed up at me "and how could anyone shoe a ‘trike?’ But if she lives sometimes ‘in the land of make-believe, she can match wits with the keenest of masculine small fry. When we went. on a prowl about the lawn, n favorite method of settling any disturbance that has arisen. and stopped to watch a bee explore thc depths of the tube of a blos- soming fox glove, she asked: “Did vre plant honey seeds this year?- 'Well. then \\'hat makes the honey in there for the bees to gather?" ’ O O I But it was Jamie who held fhe mother duck securely in his arms, for the feminine portion of the family to gather up her flock of new-hatched dueklings from the Pckins nest in the hay-mow. And it was Jamie too. that led a par- ade to display "these poor dear little kittens of Tabbys that must find it cold out of doors!" to us in. the kitchen. where today. screen-doors were no barriers at all against the entrance of either cats or dogs. with James when he brought l-he cows to stable from the pasture. and they were perched on her back, when he led “our own mare" there, at the close of the evening's scuffling of potato rows.

Although badly crippled for many years. this remarkable woman still continues to take a hand at; house- hold duties-and there are so many of them to be rounded up in a busy farm home that one is re- minded of that old saying. "Man's work is from sun to sun, but wo- man's work is never done." Widowed when only a compara- itively young woman, Mrs. Barrett was left with the heavy responsi- bility of running the farm and tak- ing care of her four sons: Cecil, Hebcr, Ray and Lee. Those were busy and anxious days for the young mother; but Louise was not the type of person to sit with folded hands, bemoan- ling the sad lot the Fates had lhandcd her, not one whom advers- :ity floors in the first round of bat- itle. Knowing that she had adouble {duty to do, she put aside her tears over the loss of her husband and went to work. What other course lwas open to a woman of common sense? When her boys were old enough lto share some of the responsibili- ,ties. Mrs. Barrett took up a hobby l-the hobby of knitting, which not ionly proved a blessing to herself [after she became crippled, but also la great comfort to many men who lwore her socks and mittens during lWorld Wars. One and Two. For over thirty-five years her busy ‘hands have known few restful ihours, save those in which she lay lin the arms of slumber, or during §one or two sick periods when even ilier doctor despaired of saving her ilife. Just. how many mittens and sucks she has knitted since shefirst started doing such work is a mat.- ter for conjecture. Mrs. Barrett herself hasn't the slightest idea. She knows only that hundreds of miles of yarn went into the task, and many a sheep's fleece went through her nimble fingers, and later her crippled ones. It's a. real joy to have a hobby: but when you know your hobby has helped to keep the feet of our war fieroes warm and dry-why. then you have the satisfaction of knowing that you have rendered real aid to your country in its time of tribulation. And Louise Barrett did just that. Mrs. Barrett doesn't believe in old persons’ sitting around with nothing to occupy their hands or their minds. “Keep busy" is her slogan. "When you are busy you'll have little enough time left to wor- ry over this or that thing which usually doesn't amount to much, anyway." . Whether that's sound advice or not, most of us wouldn't know. But Mrs. Barrett speaks with a knowledge gained from years of living, toiling and planning; so she should be well qualified to speak her mind. Quietly and industriously work- ing with her well-wom needles, this remarkable woman can look back over the years with pleasurable pride, knowing that: hers has been a. life rich in achievement. I-Ier four sons, whom she tended in infancy and later through the years of adolescence and on t.o manhood. still are living. Cecil and Lee are with her on the old home- stead.

FEELING WEAK WHEN GET- TING UP IN THE MORNING In many large factories and stores when any one faint: the employees are tauwht to lay the patient on his back with feet up on a chair; this brings tfhe blood back to the head and the indivi- dual regains consciousness. It is usually considered safe then to I18 down whenever a feeling of weak- ness or faintness occurs. Some men and women tell you that when they first izEt out of bed they feel weak and have to lie down again for a. few minutes. That this is caused by low pres- sure whcn the individual is stand- ing is stated by Drs. Anton S. ‘Yus- lis and George C. Griffith Univer- sity of Southern California. in “Califomia Medicine". Due to the it is called ortliostatlc hypotension (low ressure). Ort ostatic low blood pressure should be suspected if exhaustion is felt in the morning and becomes less during the day, if falntness or di-m vision ts produced by standing bu; passes away when lying down. The blood ressure i: normal when the ind vidual is lying down but may fall very low when standing. The perspiration scanty throwing extra. work on the kidneys and bladder with symp- toms of ollguria, (insufficient urine). In these cases of orthostatic hy- potension (low blood pressure) when you assume the erect position after lying down it ha: been found that t e tracings of tihe heart action are not normal and there is loss of rhythm in the sounds of the heart. As stated above all the symptoms mentioned fainting. weakness, exhaustion, heart: sounds -all disappear if the individual lies down. What is the cause of these symp- toms brought on by low blood pres- sure when individual is standing? These symptcins are caused by a lack of tone in the walls of the veins wiliich. if in normal condi- tion. would drive the blood up from the le s to the heart. Back of this lack o tone is the muscular um which should be able to push he lood down to the feet with Qnough power to bring the blood back again. While the sym toms will pass away if the ind vidual lies down. drugs if necessary. Drs. Yuski: and Griffith recommend the use of paredrine hydrobromlde before arisinir.

DOROTHY DIX SAYS- Daiing Married Men Desirability Frequently Disappears With Eligibility DEAR MISS DIX: I was a young married man who fell in love wlin a girl in the office where I worked. We had an affair that lasted for several years. Then about a year ago my wife died and this girl and I plan to be married, but now without anyreason she has thrown me over for a man she used to know and whom she had promised me she would never see again. My friends had \varned me against this girl and I broke with them over her. One friend told me that she was no good and that if she had no more principle than to go with a married man she would do anything and that she was a gold-digger. What I want to know is this: Are my friends right? Am I better off getting rid of this girl or should I fight to take her away from this other man? X i ANSWER: What have you to fight for? Th: girl ev dently prefer: the other man to you, pr ah: would not abandon you for him with the end of your devious Germ"! m b romance in sight and the wedding day drawing near.- mlnd 51d shes; you can say for her is that she doesn't know her own m flékle a us and i: not likely to have much happiness out of a wife There are n lot of girl: who get a particular kick out of havin I lgviaizfefair: with married men.

Brothers seem to be different peo- ple when they are around their girls. They are smiling and chatty and help them into car: and over curb:, while they never have a word to say to their sister: and they can climb over a wheel the best way they can. Of course, I don't expect my brother to treat me a: though I were hi: best girl. but I would like him to talk to me once in a while and take me out occasionally and I think he might introduce hi: friends to me and when he goes out get u date for me. A BEWILDERED SISTER ANSWER: It ha: been laid that no brother can ever imagine what any other man ever :ee: in hi: lllter to make him fall in love with her. but I don't think the disilluslon of brother: i: quite a: bad a: that. I think moat brother: are very fond of their alaters, only they don't feel that they have to go to any trouble to make thing: pleasant for them. 0f course, a brother can do a lot for a lllter if he want: to. H: can bring nice boy: to the houl: and give her a chance to get acquainted with them. And ho.- can take her to place: and give hoi- a good time. Above all, he can give her a lot of hint: about how to make lierlelf popular with buy: and he can be the belt chaperon in tho world b:- causc they are in the lame crowd and he know: what the young one: do and he i: nlwny: Johnny on the lpot.

LEATHEIl-‘PEULAR AS SUIT MATERIAL NEW YORK — A continuing steady growth in the popularity of leather suits and coats is evident. Soft suedes, fine buttery deerskins which seem much like pigskin in texture. a: well as fine imported capeskins. form the bulk of these clothes which are ideal for coun- try wear and travel. Philip Sills makes a suit with a straight ivrap-nround leather skirt and teams it with a jacket cut just like a man's single-breasted business suit-patch pockets, inner vest pocket and all. A fine suede bolero with a half- moon collar, wide cuffs, and loose back is ensembled with a skirt made with soft pleats and slashed pockets.
