<***' t***"*t* THE TRACK RCXS 0\ Out in the country the other day !, stood on the hiiltop and saw the rail way track, iike a silver riblwn. run-! niKg -< way into the diatawce. The aua was shining brigHtly. I could per ceive a train many miles away. At; night I stood upon the same h*M and could see ti e track only for a little distance; beyond that; it was swallaw-j ed up in the shadows. But 1 know j thai the traek runs on. There are high moments in life when we ean see the far reach of righteousness. And there is many a dark hour when Houbt and unfaith sett!e down at! around us. Indeed our moments of vision are comparative!;' few. Day after day a)] we can do is tq keep the revela tions of those monients in our mem ory and piod on through the fOy and obscurity, trust more to faith than to sight. We cannot abide on the paahs-. Mrst of our journey is through the vaiiey. The merchant at his desk must, keep in mind his larger ptams even! when detaiis wouid deny them. The saiior must go on dead reck oning when there are no stars by j which he can set his coarse. Hut he! Peoples' Warehouse FauMfiasoMt, H IE. AUGUST !4, !926.

Even in love we come ali too rareiy to the mountainas of transfiguration and most of the time we must trudge grimly forward with hope, believing what we ) avo once seen and hoping for what we shai! see again Underneath the (howdiag evidences of the power of evil every man must believe in those etema! and far more potent cosmic iaws of good. DM yow once giimpse a great and beautifu! )ove burning iike a sheki nah? However gross may be the present darkness you must believe that the fire stiii burns. The track runs on. ^ The soai that wii! not go forward ; until he can see every step of t r e. way to the end will dvance bat little.' Most of the time we must he stepping! out into the d&rk. The man who is honest simpiy be cause he knows that honesty is the best poiicy, and is honest oniy so long as it seems the best poiicy. has a poor qualitv of honesty; for oniv that ionesty is thp best poliev which is honest in the dark as weii as in the light; oniy that man deserves to he caiied honest who is willing to fol low the path of honesty even when it seems to iead into the abyss. None of us can see more than a iittie way nr st of the time Fortu nate we are if. now and then, we reach some height where the great view un folds. And if, afterwards, the dark ness seems to ciose in, we can say to ourselves: —"The .track ran on." Pink Powder Puffs. A new public ballroom was opened on the north side a few days ago, a; truly handsome place and apparently well run. The pleasant impression lasts until one steps into the men's washroom and finds there on.the wall a contraption of glass tubps and levers and a slot for the intuition of a coin. The glass tubes contain a fluffy pink solid, and beneath them one reads an amazing legend which :uns something like this: "Insert coin. Hold personal puff beneath the tube. Then pull the lever." A powder vending machine! In a men's washroom! Homo Americanus! Why didn't some one quietly drown Rudolph Guglielmo, alias Valentino, years ago? And was the pink powder machine pulled from the wall or ignored? It was not. It was used. We personally saw two "men"—as young lady con tributors to the Voice of the People are wont to describe the breed—step up, insert coin hold kerchief beneath the spout, pull the lever, then take the pretty pink stuff and pat it on their cheeks in front of the mirror. Another member of this depart ment, one of the most benevolent men on earth, burst raging into the office the other day because he had seen a yoU&g "man" tombing his pomaded hair in the elevator. But we claim our pink powder story beats his all hollow. It is time for a matriarchy if the maie of the species allows such things to persist. Better a rule by mascu line women than by effeminate men. Man began to slip, we are beginning to beiieve, when he discarded the straight razor for the safety pattern. We shall not be surprised when we hear that the safety razor has given way to the depilatory. Who or what is to blame is what puzzles us. Is this degeneration into effeminacy a cognate reaction with pacifism to the virilities and realities of the i?ar ? Are pink powder and parlor pinks in any way related? How does one reconcile masculine cos. metics, sheiks, floppy pants, and slave bracelets with a disregard for law and an aptitude for crime more in keeping with the frontier of half a century ugo than a twentieth cen tury metropolis ? Do women like the type of "man" who pats pink powder on his face in a public washroom and arranges his coiffure in a public elevator? Do women at heart belong to the Wilson ian era of "I Didn't Raise My Boy to Be a Soldier? What has become of the old "caveman " line? It is a strange social phenomenon and one that is running its course not oniy here in America but in Eu rope as weli. Chicago may have its powder puffs; London has its danc ing men and Paris its gigolos. Down with Decatur; up with Elinor Glyn. Hollywood is the national school of masculinity Rudy, the beautiful gar dener's boy, is the prototype of the American male. Hell's bells.

Ice cream is a food particular!; j adapted to the needs of individuals o) i ali ayes, giving as it does the hesi t; !<e of nutrients for the repair o! j bone, teeth, Hood and muscies and fo: energy. . Today thousands of housewives, make their own ice cream. As a con sequence, the making of this highly nutritious food at a reduced cost, yet] without in any way impairing the product, is of importance. Home economists have found a means-to this end in the use of evap orated miik. There are three impor- [ tant reasons why evaporated miik 1 r makes the best !ce creath, they point out. Because 60 per cent of the nat-! urat water !n evaporated mitk ha: been removed by evaporation, there; is over twice the percentage of soiids i present in this type of miik than there is in ordinary market miik—and,' since it is the soiids that give ice j creatn its pieasing tiavor, this fact is of moment. Then, the composition of evaporated; miik is constant, for the reason that it has been put through an homogeniz ing process, which breaks up tire fat giobuies into tihy particies and dis tributes them Seventy throughout tha miik. This attribute makes for nn ice cream mixture of uniform quaiity and fine texture. Finaiiy. experts agree that the use of evaporated miik in ice cream con tributes to its hygienic quaiities, for the reason that evaporated miik is en tirety steriie. Heaith authorities de clare that miik and crenm should bs treated to a heat of 150 degrees F. for haif an hour in order that a product may be produced free from infective organisms. Evaporated miik is proc essed at 240 degrees for 30 minutes, and, therefore, its introduction into an ice-cream mixture increases its parity in proportion to the amount of evap orated miik used.
