Bellefonte, Pa., October 1, 1926. U. S. Soldier Will be Best Educated. Uncle Sam’s military experts have a new goal—to make the American soldier the best educated in the world. From the highest officers to the lowliest private school days have tak- en on a real meaning under the new scheme. The West Pointer who used to represent the last word in military preparation now grabs his sheepskin and starts for another Army School. “Join the Army and Go to School” exclaims the veteran, hard-boiled doughboy in derisive tones. But the highest officers in the Army take. the matter more seriously. The World War brought into play scientific forces on a scale never dreamed of by military experts, and many predict the next war will see the complete triumph of science over brute strength. The Army War College, housed in an imposing building overlooking the Potomac River, with a “campus” as trim as any to be found throughout the country, has opened its fall term ‘with the same sort of exercises to be found in any other institution of learning. Grizzled general officers are among the seventy-six to reach the college for a final determination of their elig- ibility to the general staff. They listen to lectures and they are called on to “recite.” Scores of other Army Schools throughout the country and in the Philippines call the lesser officers, the non-coms and the privates. The War Department is now detailing to many ‘State universities a limited number of officers whose tuition is paid in ord- er that they may develop their knowl- edge of some particular subject and become an expert in time of war. Every private is being urged to take advantage of wide opportunities presented for increasing his general learning, and all sorts of trade in- struction is offered. Some schools are required, but many are voluntary. An Army captain who commanded a cavalry troop tells of a bright young chap who had been employed by a telephone company as a laborer and after he entered the Army refused to listen to suggestions for volunteer schooling. After patient argument he was induced to take up the study of electricity. Now, says the captain, he is boss of the telephone company outfit in which he used to be a laporer. The largest Army schools are to be found at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, and Camp Benning, Georgia, devoted chiefly to military subjects. But gen- eral instruction is included there as ‘well as in schools conducted at many army posts.—Exchange. ee ——— i ——— Small Towns Profit. Congestion of automobiles in the cities is proving a benefit to small- town merchants. Many of the lesser communities report that parking re- strictions in large and middle-sized cities is hindering the small-town buy- .er who used to go to the city to shop. Apparently traffic and parking diffi- culties are making it hard for shop- pers to buy in the city, and they are staying at home. Marysville, Ohio, is a town of about 12,000 inhabitants, just 830 miles from Columbus. Mer. «chants in this community report that, since parking and traffic have become so complicated in Columbus, many people are not going to the larger ciiy and Marysville merchants are pros- pering. A very interesting plan to aid the out-of-town buyer and to prevent parking restrictions from hurting the local merchants has been evolved ‘through the retail merchants’ bureau -of Bluefield, W. Va. In this enterpris- ing city a one-hour parking limit is strictly enforced in business districts. An out-of-town buyer coming to the city, however, receives a special tag ‘to place on his car. Police authorities note this tag and will not take action ‘if the parking limit is violated.—Na- tion’s Business Magazine. ‘Scientist Makes Glass Eyes That Can be Moved. Berlin.—Movable glass eyes which :are hard to distinguish from normal eyes because they are subject to the «control of optic muscles have been successfully fitted by Dr. Carl Muel- ler of Jena, noted artificial eye spe- -cialist. Doctor Mueller found that in 90 out «of 100 cases of the loss of an eye the muscles and nerves controlling the Tpvement of the eye were unimpair- He said he fastens connective mus- cles tissue of animals to a glass eye -and grafts these tissues onto the rem- ants of the human eye muscles. The «extremely delicate operation requires about an hour, and he has been suc- cessful in from 80 to 90 per cent. of his cases. Success depends to a large extent, he asserted, upon the condi- tion of the eye socket after the loss of the eye. ree eres Device Warns Flyer Near Ground in Fog. London.—By means of new inven- tions air pilots are able to steer safe- ly to a given point in the thickest fog, Flight Lieut. H. Cooch has informed the Royal Aeronautical society. By means of delicate instruments in the cockpit a pilot is kept auto- ‘matically informed when he is within 1,500 feet of the ground, and the loss of every foot of height as he descends is also indicated. Other instruments show the aviator ‘just what part of the aerodrome he is over, he has arrived in the vicinity of his destination, so that he may land ‘in safety, though he may not be able to see the ground until he has actual- ly alighted. membre i ————— ——The Watchman prints all the ‘news ‘fit ‘to read. FOR AND ABOUT WOMEN. DAILY THOUGHT. “It’s never so bad that it mightn’t be worse,” So the ones who are favored go preaching, And, for lack of a sermon more hopeful or terse, It's a good little text to be teaching. But why not improve? Why may we not call For a change in its spirit and letter, And preach that if matters are bad we can all Help a little in making them better? —Dayton News. —Shorter and tighter skirts than ever before have been worn in Amer- ica will be yogue during the fall and winter season, according to a state- ment made at the semi-annual con- vention of the Fashion Art League in Chicago by Ralph Moni, its president. But just around the corner is relief for those girls and women for whom the prevailing style never was meant, Mr. Moni said. While the kneecap will be a common sight for a time, the length of skirts will drop consider- ably with approach of spring because of the fullness of the upper part of the gowns. Fall and winter gowns will be very full from shoulders to hips, with ruffles and full arms, the designer said. Suits often comprise a rough tweed jacket with plain skirt. Sometimes there are sleeveless jackets for extra warmth. Coats are amply furred with a shaded or other modish pleat. Not sel- dom fullness will be shirred into the back of the neck or a few sun-ray pleats may mark this area. A few of the necks have an Oriental touch in their collarless simplicity. One or two sleeves are of pleasant persuasion. The upward curve or cutaway line is suggested many times on bodice or on skirt. Boleros are treated in new ways. One is stitched right into the dress. Quite a few of Lenief’s evening dresses are on princess lines. The lovely one sketched is in pale green chiffon velvet, Gold bands, semi-trans- parent between them, outline the odd- ly cut upper part, giving interest gt each side, as is often the case here. Water lilies, pink and green tinted, rest on the shoulders. There are a great many overlap- ping leaflike shapes covered with glistening paillettes for evening frocks or skirts only. A charming dress has a silver lace cutaway jacket effect with pink and silver frills tak- ing the same line on a pink skirt be- low. Another lovely model has a bod- ice of crystal and a little black, with a skirt of lace tiers deepening to gray. —Those who have broken down from mental labor should have rest from wearing thought; but they should not be led to believe that it is dangerous to use their mental powers at all. Many are inclined to regard their condition as worse than it real- ly is. This state of mind is unfavor- able to recovery and should not be en- couraged.—Exchange. —Use any good polishing cream on a soft "¢lofh’ on’ a parchment lamp- shade. Wipe it gently, without rub- bing, on only a small portion of the shade at a time. Then wipe off the cream with a damp cloth. The same process will remove dust and smoke from a wooden lampshade and from gilt picture frames. —Never hold a baby so that a strong light shines in its face, or lay it down for its nap facing an unpro- tected window. Teach the child to sleep in a dark room, if possible, though if a child is really afraid I consider a light the lesser evil. When a foreign substance has got into the eye it is often relieved by waiting until the tears start and then rubbing very gently toward the nose; but usually the eyes should be rubbed as little as possible unless directed by the best medical authority. Some- times the lid may be gently rolled over a pencil and the dirt picked out with the moistened point of a very soft white clean cloth. If the sub- stance is sharp or rasping a physician should be employed at once. Every child should be taught the correct position for studying or read- ing—not to face the light, not to lean over the work—and if its eyes are not strong some restrictions should be made to the use of them. Bathing the eyes, when tired, with warm wat- er and witch hazel is very soothing and is not injurious. Never neglect getting medical at- tention for the children’s eyes. I know of innumerable instances where children have become almost or total- ly blind through lack of proper care, and have been obliged to go through life in this pitiable condition when the trouble might have been cured when they were children—The Housekeeper. A Word With the Old Folks ElderlyPeople Are Learning Importance of Good Elimination. N the later years of life there is apt to be a slowing up of the bodily functions. Good elimination, however, is just as essential to the old as to the young. Many old folks have learned the value of Doan’s Pills when a stimulant diuretic to the kidneys is required. Scanty or burning passages of kidney secre- tions are often signs of improper kid- ney function. In most every com- munity are scores of users and en- dorsers who acclaim the merit of Doan’s. Ask your neighbor! DOAN’ PILLS 60c Stimulant Diuretic to the Kidneys Foster-Milburn Co., Mfg. Chem., Buffalo, N. ¥. is away for the summer is often at a loss to get a little hot water at short notice. There are all sorts of alcohol and electric heaters that can be bought at small cost, and one should never be without one of them. Even so, alcohol will sometimes be wanting at the vital moment. One woman solved the problem by carry- ing in her bag a small wire toaster, just big enough to fit over the top of a gas globe. With this at hand it is easy to get a cup of hot tea at short notice or to heat curling irons with- out holding them in the flame or dim-* ming the light. hs In addition to the toaster it is well to carry a small tincup to rest upon it in an emergency. &! —Pound steak well, pour boiling water over and scald thoroughly. Drain, cut in pieces, roll in flour, sea- son with salt and pepper, fry in but- ter until brown, then cover with hot water and cook slowly until tender. Keep well covered and replenish water if it boils away. At meal time take cup of flour, heaping teaspoonful of baking pow- der, teaspoonful of salt, mix, add enough cold water to make batter that will just drop from moistened spoon. Use teaspoon and put dumpling on each piece of meat, and water if nec- essary, cover closely seven minutes. Take up with dumpling on meat, pour the gravy over all and serve at once. How Muscles Should be Used in Lift- ing. Few people know how to lift a heavy object properly. The few who do rarely use their knowledge. Lift- ing should be done in such a way as to use the muscles of the thighs, not the back or abdominal muscles. Qnly by using the leg muscles, can one avoid putting too great a strain on the back and abdomen, even when these mus- cles are well developed. In lifting, bend the knees, not the back, until the object to be lifted is on a level with the hands. Then straighten the knees, raising the body and the heavy object at the same time. —Hygeia Magazine. Hunters Must Have License. The following information has been received from the State Game Com- mission relative to the hunting of groundhogs. “These animals are un- protected and may be killed at any time. However, the game law requires that any persen who desires to hunt or chase with the intention of taking or killing any wild animal in this State, shall be in possession of a hunt- ing license, if he uses firearms or any device or instrument for the above purpose.” The penalty is a fine of $20 and costs. Table Manners. When eating corn on the cob, ad- just it as you would a mouth organ, but do not run the scale so rapidly. | Place the napkin in your lap.

Pennsylvania Railroad 71.39-2t AES ECE This Six-Room Bungalow Adapts Self to Any Lot en ————————— THERE is much to be sald in favor of the one-story dwelling, and when the floor plan is as expertly arranged as in this Colonial bifogalow the usual objections of lack of privacy and long distances to walk, are avolded. This house may run either lengthwise or across the width of the lot. The exterior is of steined grey shingles with either a green shingled or tiled roof, The trimmings should be white and the shutters green to harmonize with the roof. The three bedrooms are well shut off from the rest of the house. The large open porch or sunroom can be made to open off either the living or dining room. The kitchen has the desired built-in features, including the useful breakfast nook. The cost of this house can be ma- terially reduced by omitting the basement and allowing space on the main floor for a small boiler room. The walls and roof also are sheathed with celotex to keep the tempera- ture at comfort point the year round. ©, Celotechnic Institute, Chicago, 1928. = i FIRST FLOOR.
