0 Whaf Is Proper Use of Furniture Polish? In a recent investigation, it was proven that many, many home makers use furniture polish incor rectly—pouring it on a dry cloth, for application to the furniture 1 This is a gross waste of the house wife’s time, energy and her pol ish! And the latter is usually blamed. We refer, of course, to oil polish—for this type is best to clean, beautify and preserve the furniture. The best oil polish is not greasy, because it’s made with a fine, light-oil base. The polish should be applied on a damp cloth —thoroughly moistened with water, then wrung out. Saturate this cloth with the polish—spread on—and rub lightly. The “wet” of the cloth smoothly distributes the polish—and the finish absorbs, re ceives it evenly! This correct procedure takes the “labor” out of polishing — and requires far less tiresome rubbing! A dry cloth is then used to easily work up the glow, which is even and uniform— the desired effect! This—and only this—is the proper way to use a good oil polish! ... because O-Cedar not only deans as it polishes, but proems your fur niture—“feeds” the finish, prevents drying-out, cracking. Insist upon O-Cedar Polish, for furniture, woodwork ind M floors (with the fa- mous O-Cedar Mop).

Perton wwtwwvwTwwwvwwvy ■VJ EW YORK—In 1929, at the age of seventy-one, Frederick H. Prince, the Boston banker, was still playing polo. He has great faith in the durability of Time Better men, institutions Than Reform and governments, for Bueineee as long as they> be have themselves. He left for Europe to forget about Ousiness for a while and intimates that it would be a good thing if the government would be similarly neg lectful. “Washington should stop trying to reform business and leave the situation to time,” he says. Time has treated him nicely and he may well give it a testimonial. At seventy-nine, he is the grand seigneur of American business. Only four years ago, he engaged in a hard-hitting slugfest over the con trol of Armour & Co. He got what he was after—the chairmanship of the board. He has many such trophies, having con- trol’ed 46 railroads, and, in general, one of the biggest cuts in the Amer ican dream of any man of his day. His (mainly liquid) fortune is esti mated at around $250,000,000. But, for many years, Makes Point he says, he has of Being in made it a point to Debt Always about $20,000,- 000 in debt. That is revealing in connection with his ideas about money and success. He emphasizes the dynamics of money. It isn’t money unless it is working. Stagnant money just dries up and' blows away. Hence you draw cards even if you do have to drag a few chips for markers. He’s a little too heavy for polo, with a massive gray head, deep sunken, pondering eyes, and heavy, gray moustache; a bit grim, per haps, but not formidable. When, early in October, 1929, a small black cloud appeared on the horizon,, he viewed it with a telescopic eye, saw it for what it was, and got out of the market. The cyclone never touched him. Until a few years ago, he was still riding to the hounds at Pau, in southern France, master of the hunt. He has marble palaces here and there, one of them the former man sion of Mrs. O. H. P. Belmont, at Newport. Remarking that he has been in business 55 years, he says this little squall will blow over ir two or three months. • • • * I 'HE reason isn’t quite clear, but, -*■ these days, the colleges compete for tuba players as well as athletes. Dr. Walter Albert Tuba Aces Jessup deplores Prized Same this and other as Athletes phases of the scramble for stu dents in the annual report of the Carnegie Foundation for the Ad vancement of Teaching, of which he is president. The fight seems to be entirely in the field of extra-curricu lar activities. No mere scholar gets competing bids from rival faculties. Since he became head of the Car negie foundation, in 1933, Dr. Jessup has been a consistent deflationist, so far as education is concerned. He wants fewer and better students in the colleges. He assails the col leges which would “teach anybody anything.” He is against education al trimmings, excrescences and gadgets, as the little Scotch iron master doubtless would be if he were looking over the current scene. Other leading educators join him in this, but the big mill has to have d • u-n plenty of raw ma- Brain Mill terial, to keep on Needs Raw grinding, or else Material become just a crossroad plant. So they go after even the tuba play ers. At any rate, each can blow its own horn. Dr. Jessup was president of the University of Iowa from 1916 to 1933. A native of Richmond, Ind., he was educated at Earlham college and Columbia and gathered several honorary degrees in later years. He was superintendent of schools in In diana and dean of the college of education of Indiana university. He has won high distinction in the edu cational field and is the author of a book on arithmetic. One gathers that he would not recommend Benny Goodman for a college faculty and that quite prob ably the next Carnegie report may find adversely on the shag, the eep- er and the susy-q. He is for low kicking and high thinking, as against the prevailing reversal of this formula. <g) Consolidated News Features. WNU Service. Giants Short Lived The circus giant, the man with abnormally long legs or other ab normalities of frame, is a short lived human. Tall men fall into two classes, those who attain their extraordinary growth because of in herited tendencies and those who become freaks because of some up set in the glandular functions. The man who “comes by his height nat urally” usually lives a normal life span, but the freak seldom attains middle age. An insurance compa ny, given to research in such mat ters, found that a number of men ranging from 7 feet 6 inches tall to 8 feet 7 inches had an average life of thirty-four years. The oldest died at forty-five, the youngest at twen ty-seven. TjlE SUN, NEWBERRY, S. C„ FRIDAY, MARCH 4, 1938 Here’s a Little Boxer Rebellion It looks like a rebellion of some sort, bnt it is really only a battle royal among kids at Palm Beach, Fla. for the purpose of getting in shape for the high-chair championships in Miami. The young entrants are Iron the Sun and Surf club. Notice the two young ladies mixing it up at the left. Navy Launches New Destroyer The navy’s newest destroyer, the 1,500-ton Manry, launched recently at San Francisco. Second naval vessel to be built privately on the west coast since the World war, the Manry was christened by Miss Vir ginia Lee Maury Werth, great-granddaughter of the ship’s namesake, the late Lieut. Commander Matthew Fontaine Manry. . NO ARMS FOR HIM Frank Littell of Mt. Vernon, Iowa, rtjdsnt at Union Theological semi nary, New York, who represented the National Council of Methodist Youth before the house naval com mittee on the United States naval building program, where he at tacked President Roosevelt’s re quest for increased military ex penditures as “anti-social action” and said the young men he repre sented “will not bear arms” in event of war. PRINCESS BEATRIX The Princess Beatrix, daughter of Crown Princess Juliana and Prince Bernhard of The Netherlands, pic tured in the arms of her father, a few days following her birth at The Hague. Every Inch a Champion From the tip of his nose to the tip of his tail, Daro of Maridor, 11- month-old english setter, is a champion. He was judged the best dog of the sixty-second annual dog show of the Westminster Kennel club at Madison Square Garden, New York. Handler Charles Palmer is shown with him. The dog is owned by D. W.

This radical departure in aeronautics comprises two planes, the Maia, or mother plane, and the Mercury, the smaller ship which rides the mother’s back like an Indian papoose. In service the Mercury will be loaded with mail and carried far out over the Atlantic by the Maia, whence it will be released to continne its flight to the United States. DORIS DEDE S [OLlimn T •* Mere Affection be a Good Substitute for Love? P)EAR MISS DENE: What do yon think of affection as a substi tute for lovo, as far as getting mar ried is concerned? 1 want to mar ry bnt can (eel nothing hot affection for my future husband. Is there any hope for happiness?—A- W. ANSWER—Everything depends on your age, A. W. No one can make hard and fast rules about affec tionate marriages in general but a good many points must be consid ered before undertaking such a re lationship. Young people should marry for love, and no nonsense about it. For while we’re young our hope of ro mance is high and if it is denied us, we yearn for it all our lives and imagine ourselves cheated of life’s dearest gift—even though we may be admirably suited to the mates we chose. No matter how much the modem writers attempt to analyze love Into shreds, it must still be for the young, a vital spark, a feeling for which there is no accounting. It is absolutely right that young people should ask themselves practical questions about the mates they have chosen, but before they begin their self cross-examination they should first have experienced something deeper than affection, something be yond reason. YoiJig people cannot afford to do with out the vital spark. They cannot hope to substitute for it, financial security or good solid affection or a satisfactory compan ionship. They must know something of the first careless rapture before they can decide to get along without it forever. But men and women of riper years may well marry for reasons other than sheer heart-burning love. A man or a woman who has known love, and the bitterness of renunciation or disillusionment, may find peace and happiness with a tolerant, understanding, sympathetic mate. Spinsters and bachelors who have been lonely for years find peace and contentment in marriage, even though the tender passion be denied them. A man may marry for the second time and be as happy with the wife he has chosen to keep him com fortable as he was with his first wife who gave him love. A woman may divorce her husband, whom she once loved passionately, and settle down serenely with a man for whom she has only affection. Middle-age has learned love’s les son and is willing to compromise with life and take what’s offered for contentment’s sake. Loneliness and middle-age can make marriage seem a haven of refuge even though it be a marriage of conveniencs pure and simple. T”)EAR MISS DENE: I have qnsr- reled with my mother and now live in an apartment of my own. I seem to be losing my friends. 1 do not tell them of what has occurred, and so have to make up reasons why they cannot see me in my home. I hate the feeling that every body is whispering about me. 1 feel that this quarrel may have cost me dear in more ways than one.—V. D. ANSWER—Cast a veil of secrecy over your life, shroud yourself in mystery and at once you set the whole world whispering. And the chances are that the world being what it is, some of the whispers will have a distinctly unpleasant flavor. If you are going to make a mys tery of wfiere you live and why, the more conventional of our friends will begin to shy away like fright ened horses. Knowing nothing of the true state of affairs, their imagi nations run riot in the attempt to discover why you’ve suddenly be come secretive. It is better always to tell the truth—however ugly it may sound for the truth at its worst can never compare with the stories your neighbors have already concocted about you. Since you are living a new sort of life, tell people about it. 'The min ute you give your audience the facta they will cease to conjecture, and on the day the conjecturing stops, your reputation will undergo a change for the better. A. L.—You have spent so mueh time and energy In yonr detective work that one can only congratulate yon on the fruit of yonr labors. A more sympathetic soul than mine would tell yon that yon had been badly used, bnt it *eems to me that any girl so constantly surrounded with suspicion was bound to get a few wrong ideas in her head. You have refused to trust her from the minute you met her. You have always accused her of the worst. You have fought down any impulse rising in you to believe that she was worthwhile. Are you surprised that after three years she has decided to put some of your sug gestions into practical use? I believe this is the first time she’s ever deceived you and I also believe that if you took her back now, you’d be doing the one thing which would save you both from misery. But you must make up your mind to put away the sleuth’s outfit when you marry her. To live with a house-detective is enough to put any woman into the frame of mind where she feels impelled to go out and do some of the things her charming husband has suggested. • Bell Syndicate.—WVU Service Yesteryear Charm in Crocheted Bedspread Here’s an heirloom popcorn bedspread that’s going to lend richness to your bedroom—just see how effectively that striking popcorn motif is set off by the. lacy mesh background.
