The first discussion will be to Parents in Wartimes and will deal with questions and answers on the following subjects: I. How Can We Protect Our Chil dren? Can you blame parents for trying to get the things that will assure the comfort of their chil dren as one way to protect them? How does this affect inflation? How does it affect the total war effort? What kind of security in the home is most important to children? How does our attitude toward the war get over to the children? What are the everyday things that you will try to keep up as a way of giving your children a feeling of protection and security? Are there some things that we can well give up and maybe even make it better for everyone con cerned? For example? What are you going to do when you yourself are anxious and upset over the war? Can we build up our own courage? How can grade school children do things to help in the war effort? How will you advise the child who wants to stop school? The 14 year old girl who wants to entertain the soldier? The 16 year old who wants to marry the fellow she met last month?

This war is demanding an increasing amount of service on the home front which must be renderd by women, there fore it is a pleasure for me as Mayor of the city of Wilmington, to endorse the women’s war-time registration which is being con ducted by the Health Defense League.” 2 Q * * * Rosehill ROSEHILL, Oct. 14.—Mrs. A.

It isn’t TABOO any more for girls to know these truths Girls today can be grateful that some subjects are discussed more frankly than they used to be.

Some take (it, as directed, three days before “their time’’ to help relieve periodic pain due only to functional causes. Others take it as a tonic to stimu late the appetite and aid digestion by increasing the flow of gastric juices, thus helping build up strength and energy for those de manding days to come.
