PARENTS
Divided Authority
The Jones household consisted of
Mr. tad Mrs. Jones, their two chil
dren, Mr. Jones’ other. Mrs. Junes’
sister and the maid. Taken by and
large it seemed a happy family, and
the children lived in a harmonious
atmosphere. In spite of their con
genial environment they were not
happy children, nor did they feel
secure. Both were nervous and
high-strung and hard to manage.
The reason was plain to anyone
visiting at the Jones’ house. When
either child wanted permission to
f do anything, he never accepted an
unfavorable decision from his fath
er or mother. He made a tour of
the entire family asking grandma,
aunt and even maid, until he found
someone who gave him the desired
leave. If. afterward, his mother
said, “Why, I told you not to,”
Tommy’s reply was "Grandma said
I could.” Mrs. Jones did not wish
to hurt her mother in law or in any
way undermine her authority, and
yet she realised that the existing
state of affairs was Injuring both
children. Neither child was sure of
what he could or could not do, and
the Indecision was bed for nerves
and discipline.
The only way ta handle children
iri a large household is to be sure
that orders ere consistent and final.
The parents must be the judges and
there can be no repeal from their
decision. Whether or no grandma
and aunt approve of what the par
ents say' and do. they must never
openly question any order or rule
which the parents make.
If they insist on interfering with
discipline, on consideration for
their feelings should be allowed to
stand in the way of the children’s
welfare. Outsiders living or visiting
in the home must support the par
ents’ authority. If they will not they
mlist" find some other home, or sub
mit to being deprived of their
own authority.

By BOBBIN COONS
HOLLYWOOD. — The heavy had
been In the hospital, which pre
sumably made him a light heavy.
But C. Henry Gordon, man of a
thousand villainies, was still in no
position to terrorize us with the
story of his operation. He hadn’t
had an operation, truth-to tell, and
he admitted it. He had been laid
low by incipient pneumonia.
By now every fan knows that all
movie villains are angelic by dispo
sition, that they love their homes,
book#, gardens, and children and
wives if they have any. So it is
scarcely necessary to remark that
C. Henry Gordon, for all his slim
iness in “The Charge of the Light
Brigade” as scheming Srat-Khan,
is personally gracious, expansive
and most , affable. But there is
something about hospitals . .
He took the words off my type
writer: “There is something about
hospitals,” he said.
“Why,” he wanted to know, “must
visitors, for Instance, be so noisy?
They would stalk past my door,
making so much noise I was con
vinced the\r thoughtfulness was
about the size of. a nit on a gnat
He was not all bitter, however.
“Pleasant break in the day to have
the barber drop in. I liked my bar
ber — told me stories — made me
think of my childhood, some of
which w’as pleasant. And nice to
have a nurse who loved flowers and
had a beautiful garden.
“Our hospital was graced by a
lady—probably of great importance
in stage, screen, radio, polo, tennis
and badminton circles ... in other
words, the soup to nuts of life . . .
She had brought along her very
own linen and silken sheets . . .
Sardi s supplied her meals and each
nurse I heard, had a stand in . . .
An unromantic appendix had not
given her sufficient warning so
that a private operating theater
could be built . . .
i “And why not? There is no rea
! son why life should be drab, just
| beoause one is i,n a hospital. I shall
i take a leaf out of this lady’s diary,
if I can . . . And next time, per
haps, I shall have all the utensils
so necessary to one’s hospital com
fort outlined in bright lights. . .
Something About ’Em
“Doctors must get some satisfac
tion operating on certain patients
.... There must be compensation
in taking .a nice keen blade and
giving it that first precise poke Into
the patient’s anatomy. . . ”
Worth a trifle-and worth millions
Marble is just plain marble .. .
but skillful hands can give it
value that is hard to measure
in terms of money. In The Discus
Thrower there is such a wealth
of art, skill and character that
for 24 centuries art students have
studied this simple marble stat
ue and tried to copy it.
Barley is barley and hops are
hops. With yeast and water they
can be made into beer—all kinds
of beer. But, when brewing skill .
at its finest takes these ingredi
cnts m nan a, tnc nn
ished product can be
counted upon to win
the acclaim of all
students of the art of
good living.

The Celebration
By SUIT GRAHAM BONNER
For a few moment* Willy Ntlly
could not speak. He had had birth*
days before, and the Puddle Mudd*
lers had never forgotten them, but
somehow as time went on they all
grdwfonder of each other.
The Puddle Muddlers all showed
Willy Nilly their presents, keeping
the surprise of Ihe coat until the
last. Suddenly Willy Ntlly noticed
Sweet Face’s shorn appearance.
"Why Sweet Pace,” he exclaimed,
"what la the matter with you?”
Sweet Face bleated happily.
"We’ve made you a coat, and it
was my Idea, too,” he answered.
"It certainly was,” barked Rip.
Then they produced the coat
which they had kept hidden until
now.
It wasn't much of a coat in ap
pearance, but when Willy Nilly saw
it he thought his heart would
burst with the excitement and hap
piness he was feeling. To think
that Sweet Face had thought of
taking the wool right off his back
for him! To think how they must
have worked cutting it off, tying It
together!
"It’s not very well made,” growl
ed Honey Bear, "but I never was
handy or paw-y about making
coats. You see I always shed a coat
and the cubs grew their fur with
out any help.
"You might have to alter It a lit
tle,” said Sweet Face. It was true
that later on Willy Nilly would
make the coat over, and even now
he knew Just how he would do it.
But that didn’t take away from
the pleasure.
He went up to Sweet Face and
put his head against the lamb’s
shorn shoulders. It was true that
Sweet Face still had a good deal of
warm covering left, but to think of
any one doing all that for him! It
was almost more than the little
man could endure. “Let’s have a
celebration,” he saidi as his eyes
swam with happy tears.
And then Willy Nilly swallowed
very hard several times, before he
said again, "Yes, we must cele
brate.” ‘\
Bonus Decreased
Aid To Veterans
RALEIGH, Oct. 30.—{&)—H. P.
Williams, veterans’ placement offi
cer of the state labor department,
said todajf the number of veterans
registered as seeking Jobs on Octo
ber 17 numbered only 3,568 com
pared with 7,026 on May 30, before
the vets got their bonus bonds in
June.
"The number of ‘down-and-out’
veterans seeking Jobs has been cut
in half since the men got their
bonus.’’ Williams said. "I believe
the bonus money helped a great
many who needed Just a little
boost to start on the road to re
habilitation.”
Williams also pointed out that
not enough veterans applied for
CCC employment to fill the last
quota tor the state and a recent
check of 1,141 men in transient
Work camps showed only 21 veter
ans.

Red Cross Head Summarizes
Organization’s N. C. Work
The lethal. twisting winds which
swept through North Carolina last
spring, killing almost a score of
persons, injuring hundreds, de
stroying and damaging hundreds of
buildings, boosted the state's disas
ter activity higher than It has been
In years. Dr. S. P. Parker, chairman
of the Shelby Chapter, said today
In his annual summation of Red
Cross accomplishments in the state.
"Not within the memory of vet
eran Red Cross workers have there
been tornadoes so completely de
vastating as those which swept
Greensboro and other cities in the
south during the first week in
April,” Dr. Parker said.
Thousands were made homeless,
stunned by sudden and awful In
tensity of the storm; many were
separated from loved ones, whose
fate they could only guess; many
others knew only too well what had
happened to those they held dear.
To all of us, the ministrations of
the Red Cross came as a blessing.
We learned, many of us for the first
time, what, the Red Cross really
does. We saw In operation the or
ganization which our dollar mem
berships helped to build.”
In all, the chapter chairman
stated, a total of 2,900 persons were
given rehabilitation assistance by
the Red Cross following the Greens
boro storm. This aid included re
pair and rebuilding of homes, pro
viding new furniture, clothing, food
and medical assistance.
In other storm areas throughout
the south and in flood swept states
along the Atlantic Seaboard, the
chairman said the Red Cross gave
personal assistance to 370,000 per
sons, victims of the most wide
spread and severe catastrophes In
recent years. Nationally, In the past
year, Red Cross has aided 445,000
disaster victims in a series of 105
catastrophes, both large and small,
in 39 of the 48 states.
"North Carolina also is taking an
active part in the Red Cross, plan
to establish first aid units on high
ways all over the nation so that
irhmediate treatment may be given
those injured in automobile acci
dents. At present North Carolina
Chapters are preparing to open 36
such units in the near future. J
Throughout the country 1,200 high- i
way first aid stations are now In I
operation in 45 Slates, and 3,500
others are scheduled to go into
operation shortly.
"In the field of health, nursing
care was given 2,884 persons by
Red Cross Public Health nurses in
the state, and a total of 9,280 visits
to or on behalf of the sick were
made. At the same time 955 wo
men and girls received Red Cross
certificates for successfully com
pleting the course in home hygiene
and care of the sick.
“Red Cross nurses also cooperat
ed with physicians in the inspec
tion of 740 school and pre-school
children in North Carolina last
ear. (her 360 of these children
were found to have defects, and it
is significant to note that out of
this number, 203 obtained correc
tive treatment through the Red
Cross.
“In addition to these many acti
vities, special volunteer services
were carried on by chapters all
over the state. These included the
making of hundreds of garments
for the needy,' surgical dressings,
renovating and collecting clothing
for disaster victims, producing
Braille books for the blind and
similar activities.
“This work of the Red Cross goes
forward daily in your name, made
possible through your annual mem
bership dues,” Dr. Parker said in
conclusion.
