sound common-sense advise on

knowledge of Florida real estate.

. oficonsequence in it during the past
(fifty years. I want to warn the
mimhershlp against making pur-
chase without having first seen the
prtoperty, or at least had some re-
‘lla'ble person down ,here to Visit and
spiraise the property before buying.
"there are bound to be more or less
'high-pressure' real estate salesmen
and promoters down here who are
raping a harvest on suckers
thi'ough the sale of lots and acreage
that really have little merit. or. to
say the least, will take years to
bring the property up to the value
paid for it.
“My advice to members who wish
to invest their earnings in Florida
is to investigate every proposition
‘ closely and take the lone word of
no real estate dealer as to his propo-
sition. In cases where one can not
visit a piece of property offered and
investigate personally, and wishes to
it. first write a. letter to the
realty board of the particular com-
munity in which the property is lo-
.cated, and one to a friend in that
community if yOu happen to have
«one located near the property, and
another to a bank in that commun-
, .ity. and inclose self-addressed envel-
J op. Wait until you get the answers
before you buy. and in the mean-
time send to the chamber of com-

Evidently. woman is never to
have her chance to be the "equal”
of man. She must. perforce. be his
superior.
Once she was his ostensible su-
perior. by chivalry; now she has to
be his actual superior. by necessity.
Schools and colleges are making
her. on the average. better educated.
She has to live up to that.
And new modern improvements
are depriving her of common labor,
leaving her the choice of uncommon
labor or the stagnation of loafing.
Even home cooking is threatened by
establishments offering to deliver
cooked food. hot and ready to serve.

The common man. with no imag-
ination. can still get a common job.
with. no inspiration in it. So he
plod. his way through life. uninter-
ested. but busy and useful.
Except for equally dull labor out-
side tho house. there will soon be
no similar opening for the woman
of no imagination. She will have
to do something higher. or nothing.
She will have to be superior to most
men. or she will have nowhere to
go.
Hoover Right on Combinations.
Secretary Hoover is of course
right in his suggestion that if for-
eigners are free to form selling
combinations. to hold up American
business, Americans will have to be
permitted to form buying combina-
tions to meet them. With only one
buyer. to the one seller. the result is
likely to be about the same as under
free competition on both sides.
So far. the scheme is obvious. But
it can not stop at "so far."
The buying combine. hold
down American wholesale buying
prices. could too easily be diverted
to a selling combine. to put up Am-
erican retail prices to the consumer.
Unless the savings of monopoly
are passed on to the consumer. they
become extortion. ‘
In our experience, the way to pre-
vent this has been public regulation.
We have applied this to public util-
ities. because they are. in large part.
natural monopolies.
We shall doubtless have to do the
same thing to any other business in

Belgian Debt I'lan Pleasee.
Everybody properly roioices
the settlement of the Belgian debt.
1f the Belgians pay only in small
part. so long as it is what they can
properly pay. nobody should object.
The most interesting thing is the
juggling of figures which politics
makes necessary. i
Of course. the Belgians do not
pay their debt “in full." as to either
principal or interest. It is quite
proper that they should not.
But it. seems to be necessary to
clothe the settlements with words
and figures which will make it seem
that. on some terms. they have paid
"in full."
The payments will repay us per-
haps half the interest we are paying
on the same money. to those from
whom we borrowed it. leaving less
than nothing on the principal which
we shall also repay. On the rest.
we shall get most of the interest,
but nothing on the principal. ‘
"Payments" will be made. but
"the debt" will not be paid. Which
is quite as it should be.

French Debt. More Difficult.
Now comes the French debt. and
that will be harder.
For one thing. both sides insist on
refusing to discuss more than a
fraction of the whole situation.
The French claim that it would
infringe their “sovereignty" ito per-
mit us to discuss possible savings in
the French budget. If the actual
budget leaves very little to pay with.
we must not point out that most of
that budget goes for expenses that
could be given lip—tho maintenance
of the largest army in the world.
and aid to the “Little Entente" to
support. armies which they could
never keep up on their own ac.
count. ,,
To be sure. J. Picrpont Morgan
has repeatedly and successfully thus
"invaded the.sovereignty" of France
but our government must not.
And if we were to claim that the
whole question could not be dis-
cussed without including the whole
situation. the French might counter
by an offer to do exactly that-only
the "whole" would then include also
the interrelated allied debts. And
this we will no more discuss than
France will the budget.

HOW To Keep Well
Surgeon General, United States Public Health Service
S. CUMBHNG
A good complexion depends in
great measure upon two conditions.
an active circulation and a clear
skin.
Beauty is more than skirt deep
because the clearness of your skin
depends to a large extent upon the
completeness with which wastes
are eliminated from your body.
If your liver. your intestines or
your kidneys as well as the skin are
not working effectively. that is if
these organs do not remove the
wastes of the body promptly your
skin is apt to be blotched ind sal-
low and often covered with erup—
lions.
Many people make the mistake of
thinking that the care of the face
can be accomplished by merely tak-
ing care of the face. They do not
realize that proper care of the face
consists primarilyof taking proper
care of the body as a whole. care of
the inside as well as the outside of
the body. Your face is often an out-
ward indlcation of the condition of
your body.
Fresh air. ventilation, exercise.
the care of the skin of the body.
mental vigor. a sound diet, togeth-
er with correct posture. are neces-v
sary factors in producing a healthy
skin and are, therefore. factors
which must be considered by those
who are ambitious to keep the skin
in a state of perfection.
Really Symptoms of Disease
You should know that a great
many of the abnormal conditions of
the skin of the face are in reality
not diseases at all.
Many of those skin diseases. like
headaches. are merely symptoms of
disease or symptoms of disorder. in
ome other part of the body. Often-
times distressing skin conditions
are due to disorder in some organ
of the body quite remote and un-
suspected.
Faulty diet is one‘of the common
causes for an unhealthy condition
of the skin. A lack of fresh air.
due to insufficient breathing is an-
other cause of unhealthy skin con-
ditions.
There are. hotyever. some skin
troubles which are not due to dis-
orders in deeper parts of the body,
or to a lack of fresh air or failure
on the part of some organ of the
body to function properly in its ca;
pacify as an eliminator of waste.
These so-cslled local skin condi-
tions are as a rule the result either
of poor circulation in the circula-
tory system of the head and face
or they are due to infection.
L'nqilestionably many skins are
infected through the means of soil-
ed fingers. Many objects with
which the hand comes in contact
may be the source of infecting or-
gunmms.
it is not surprising. therefore. de-
spite the immunity which man has
de\eloped. that facial infections do
occur and are due to the habit -of
touching the face with contaminated
fingers. Some skins. of course, are
more susceptible to infection than
are others.
A simple rule of hygiene is. ”De-
velop the habit of never touching
your face unless you first wash your
fingers. especially if the skin of
your face is peculiarly susceptible
to infection.” Another simple rule
of hygiene is, "Never use a towel
that has been used by others." Anti
a third is. "Use your own individual
soap."
Dirt in Air May infect Face
Dirt carried by the air may also
infect the skin of the face.
As in the case of the hair. so in
the case of the skin. the oil pre-
serves tlie skin. While this film of
oil protects the face under normal
conditions. it also acts to a certain
extent as a “catch-all" for dust and
disease germs blown about by the
air.
Sometimes these gel'lfls may be
so active ‘and vigorous as to produce
an infection of the skin almost im-
mcdistely. Usually. however. this
does not happen. With this fact in
mind it should be obvious to all
that frequent bathing of the skin
and washing of the face is essen»
tial.
Most skins will submit to frequent
washing without protest provided
care in the use of soap is exercised.
In washing such a skin a generous
amount of lather should be pro-
duced with a good soap. This
should be thoroughly dubbed in
and then as thoroughly washed out.
Cold water is not as good an luks
warm water for this purpose.
Cold water does. however. pos-
sess one advantage. it does increase
the circulation of the blood in the
skin.
The average healthy skin will
permit a brisk and vigorous rub-
bing with a towel and such a rub-
bing will affect the ‘circulation and
will be helpful in producing a
healthy skin condition.

President Coolidge is understood to

much more liberal allowance than
the present one.
Their argument is that the ar-
mament limitation agreement which
resulted from the international con-
ference called by President Harding
to put. a stop to the race for naval
supremacy didn't in reality. stop it.
but simply changed its form. The
,United States, it is contended, has
assumed that the race was stopped
completely, but England and Japan
haven‘t. and consequently this coun-
try will be completely outclassed as

What the Harding conference did
was to set a. limit on capital ships,
but no limit whatever was placed op-
on cruisers up to 10,000 tons. A ll!-
(lUO-ton cruiser is a small affair com.
pared with a 30,000-ton battleship.
but leaving battleships out of com
slderatlon, the former is a decidedly
formidable craft. '
And this is the type of \cssel
which the English and Japanese are
now concentrating upon building.
The upshot presently will be. the big
navy folk predict. that while the
United States may remain. at least
theoretically. upon a battleship
equality with England and somewhat
Japan's superior. she will be I'Clillli c-
ly so weak in cruisers as to be. not.
if. a hopeless disadvantage.

To be sure, President Coolidge
plans to call another conference, to
limit cruiser-building. but the big
new group doesnt believe there is
the remotest possibility England and
Japan‘ will agree to this. .
By just one method. the big navy-
ites think. does America stand some
chance of bringing the English and
Japanese to terms-by setting the

The plane‘s potentialities, how-

side of President Coolidge’s policy of
naval retrenchment rather than or-
pnnsion, Without going so far as to
say he believes aviation has sup-

The truth is, aviation's value as an
independent fighting force is hard
to determine. its advocates are up
on to the suspicion of over'cnthusi-

ports are equally open to the sus-

or group of stars, but all the sore
of a constellation are not necessarily
companion-stars in this sense.
For example. in the familiar con-
sleilatlon of the Great Dipper. five
of the ears are moving together in
one direction at the same speed.
while‘the other two stars are mov-
ing a different direction.
Now our own sun is moving
through space with a speed of about
twelve and a half miles a second in
the general direction of the star
Vega.
As a result of this motion of our
sun, a motion which our earth and
the other planets also has, measure-
ments of the stars show an appar-
ent motion in the opposite direction.
But. in the case of a star in the
constellation of Taurus, the Bull,
Dr. Luyten finds that his apparent
motion is absent.
The only explanation. he believes.
is that this star is moving in ex.
actly the same direction and with
the same speed that our own sun is.
and that therefore this star consti-
tutes a companion to our sun.
The star is small and very faint.

alogues as 46 Tauri.'lhat is after 45
