Eve patted her arm and tried to lead her from the window. "This is a flop house. Eve remember Laura said she made last, stand against the flop house-a bread line.

Laura missed this. Lillian's thin body shook with mingled sobbing and laughing. Eve tried to pull her from the window. Several of the inmates of the close, cold room sat up in their cots, straining their eyes toward the two figures "What's all thrs rumpus?" "Gqt away from that window! Tou're shutting out the air!" "Pipe down, you brats!" "Eie," said Lillian, "we don't have to do th's, do we? We could have said 'yes' to that man who asked us to go riding with him this afternoon, couldn't we?

D. We are frequently in receipt of letters which ask for advice about the cause or treatment of "eczema These are very puzzling, because the term alone does not mean anything. It used to be applied to any exudative inflammation of the skin which could not be otherwise classified Modern skin specialists hardly uss the term at all or, if so, very infrequently. The term as it is still retained refers to a disease which is the result, according to a prominent Philadelphia skin specialist, of a possible mixture of 10 factors. These are: 1 The hereditary or family predisposition factor.

2. The ichthyotic or dry-skin factor. 3. Just the opposite of 2, it may occur on account of the seborrheic or oily skin factor 4. The pyogenic or pus infection factor.

5. The mycotic or fungus infection factor, such as infection with ringworm or the cause of "athlete's foot," etc. 6. The focal intoxication factor, such as infected teeth or tonsils. 7.

The nutritional factor, with particular attention to the possibility of starch indigestion. 8. The hypersensitiveiiess or allergic factor. 9. The nenous factor This includes the actions of the subconscious' nenous system in the excessive or decreased production of perspiration, for instance.

10. The diathetic state of eczema --asthma--hay fever factor. In any given case the causes may be a combination of any two or three of theso factors Two or three groups would doubtless find certain factors as causative quite often. For instance, eczemas of the dry skin tend to occur on the skin of the outside of the uppsr arm. the palms of the hands, the elbows and knees and the shins.

This goes with decided heredity pre- disnosition. The oily or seborrheic variety occurs on the forehead, in the ears, on the neck and over the upper parts of the chest, at the base of the nert: front and back. Those who are bothered with skin eruptions of this sort are likely to have to fight them all their lives, because they depend upon hereditary predisposition, bodily structure, plus the cm ironmental factors. But with so comprehensive an idea of different in the causation, and a careful evaluation of them, much can be done to help.

Women Graduates Will Teach School Teaching school still seems to be the most popular vocation for young American women if the 1932 gradu- jatmg class at the TJmvertisy of Nevada is any criterion. Of the 51 women graduates, 31 are now looking for schools. A portion of them registered in the school of arts and science, but included enough education courses in their curriculum for a teachers diploma. The remainder registered in the normal school in either the one or two-year course. The one-year course is simply the first year of the two-year course.

Degrees from either the one or two-year normal carry only a grammar school certificate. A four-year course is necessary for a high school certificate. Experience in the rural schools is almost obligatory before being able to teach in the city schools. Of the remaining 20, six received degrees in home economics, which implies teaching cooking and sewing, though the more successful ones may procure poitsions as vocational lecturers. Several majored in journalism and are now working for relatives who own newspapers.

They were a few who did their major work along the science line and will probably continue in school for a master's degree. One was married the day she graduated.

HOW PARIS SEES TREND OF STYLE By MARY KNIGHT PARIS (UP) Madame Scliia- parelli says that the knitted silk Oi wool bonnets are proving irresistible to most of her clients, "many of whom prefer them to any other hats. Their comfortable lightness and the variety of shapes and the fact that one can put any number of them in a bag without using precious space and that they can be worn equally well for sports or town makes them ideal for the woman who travels or motors and likes lo be comfortable as well as chic." Madame Maurice who is leaving shortly for Cannes, bought several of them.

She chose a black silk bonnet finishing in a point with a narrow band winding around it a cUmimshng spiral, for wear with a black and white suit. The dress has a tiny abbreviated white crepe blouse with a wide girdle tying in a bow at the side. The high waisted skill with long tucks marking the natural waistline is of black crepon, as is the short jacket, open in front, that completes the ensemble. Now that warm days have come to stay, heavy, rich foods lose their appsal and the cook frantically looks through her recipe book for something light and tempting. Gelatine always seems to suggest something cool, appetizing and nutritious as well Combined with summer fruits or vegetables it makes one of summer's most popular dishes.

With added shell fish or chicken it may be served as the main dish of either luncheon or dinner. Here are a few suggestions for the busy housewife They may be prepared in the cool of the morning and left in the lefngeraior lo be served at dinner that evening, leaving the lady of the house free to spend the day in her garden or attend her favorite club. JELLIED VEGETABLE SALAD. 2 tablespoons gelatine soaked in cup water; cup cup sugar; 1 teaspoon salt; 2 cups boiling water: a mixture of chopped cabbage, celery, pepper, cooked' beans peas or beets amounting to 4 cups. Add the vinegar, salt, sugar and boiling water to the soaked gelatins.

Chill. When mixture begins to set add the vegetables. Turn into a wet mold and allow to chill. Un- mold and serve on lettuce, with or without vSalad dressing. Serves 12 persons.

I The lowly carrot is really a very 1 staisfymg food for both grownups and children, and the following is a tasty recipe: GOLDEN GLOW SALAD. 1 package lemon jello; 1 cup boiling water; 1 cup canned pineapple juice; 1 tablespoon vinegar; I cup canned pineapple, diced; 1 cup grated raw carrot; 1-3 cup pecan meats, chopped; teaspoon salt Dissolve gelatine in boiling water.

Unmold on crisp lettuce. Serve with any desired dressing. Add the vanilla and fold in the whipped cream and the well-beaten egg whites The egg whites reduce richness, increase volume aud improve texture.
