AmmiAAAAAAAAMAAAAAA WHO’S NEWS THIS WEEK... By Lemuel F. Parton mftvfy?v»fyy^TyvT»TT7 VTEW 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 Business as as fhey be have themselves. He left for Europe to forget about business 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 trolled 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 I of Being in made it a point to Debt Always be 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 rfding 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 in two or three months. • « t. THE reason isn’t quite clear, but, these days, the colleges compete for tuba players as well as athletes. Dr. Walter Albert Tuba Aeet Jessup deplores Prized Same this and other at Athletet Phases of 4 h e 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 plenty of raw ma Brain Mill terial, to keep on Needt 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 jeep er and the susy-q. He is for low kicking and high thinking, as against the prevailing reversal of this formula. C Consolidated News Features WNU Service.

The scalloped edges and the contrasting belt are new notes for the classic two-piece frock. a wide binding or bordering of am mated print to which a gypsy sash is matched. Then again the entire bolero is of the print with sash to match.

In fact, all blues are good with espe cial emphasis on the new gray blues. Here’s another “pointer”: Try with a navy bolero suit a blouse and sash in a soft violet shade, with which wear a boutonniere of spring violets, with plenty of self leaves in cool green. Sugar sacking in the very, very new wheat color makes the costume to the left. It has a brown print silk blouse with sash to match. The meticulously tailored bolero has the smart military influence.

LATE BELT MODES IN HUNGARY STYLES By CHERIE NICHOLAS Every nation has some form ot, art particular to its people. In Hun gary, little nation in southern Eu rope, this folk art takes the form of exquisite embroidery that has be come famous throughout the world. Weisz of Budapest has adapted the traditional patterns of the peas ants and styled them for the newest belt modes. Skilled peasants, both men and women, have transferred the gay designs to linen and hand loomed jute belts. The linen belts in natural or chalk white have bright woolen (lowers embroidered on them. The edges are finished with a button-hole stitch of the cheerful yarn. All of them are finished with amusing and unique shaped buckles of natural colored wood, hand-painted with tiny flowers. The hand-loomed jute belts that are perfect with suits, sweaters and light woolen frocks are also embroidered in bright yarns. These belts are washable and of fast colors. They are in time for the crepe frocks of spring and sum mer.

Still rising skyward with a for ward movement, the newest hats have height in modified form to ef fect a lengthened silhouette without giving an exaggerated line. Berets, toques and turned up brims, worn well back on the head or poised to one side, are leaders among the new types. Body Needs Plenty of Wafer By DR. JAMES W. BARTON © Bell Syndicate.—WNU Service. CGENERALLY speaking I most of us should drink , about four to six glasses of water daily, in addition to the water in foods and in bever ages such as tea and coffee. Some idea of the great need of water in the body can be gathered if we remember that every cell is really like a tiny fish and must have water to nourish it, and to receive and carry away its wastes. Fortunately Na ture had this in mind because every foodstuff, no matter how dry in appear ance or taste, con ,, . tains some water— peanuts as low ns 8 per cet and lettuce as high as 90 per cent. Thus even if one drank no water whatever he could get suf ficient in foods such as tomatoes, string beans, cabbage, carrots, ap ples, oranges and other fruits. Lean beef contains almost 80 per cent of water. Why It Is Necessary. “Water is necessary to life for two main reasons—(1) because the chemical changes required to sus tain life can take place only when the reacting substances are dis solved in water, and (2) because wa ter is needed for flushing away the waste products formed from the va rious processes going on in the body." Thus the cells from a chick which Dr. Alexis Carrel has kept alive for nearly 20 years are en abled to grow and multiply only be cause they are kept in a tank of wa ter containing a little salt which nourishes the tissues and allows the waste products to escape into it. The water is of course changed pe riodically. Water also regulates the body temperature, retaining heat in cold weather and carrying the heat out of the body in the form of perspira tion during hot weather. There is no hard and fast rule as to how much water or liquid an individual should drink daily. If there is a tendency to cold, a rise in temperature, an attack of diar rhoea or vomiting, severe bleeding or other condition causing a loss of water from the body, more water should be taken to replace it. Wa ter is also very helpful at the be ginning and during an illness in carrying wastes from the body more rapidly. A little salt added to the water enables the tissues to hold more water. Overweight individuals do not need as much water as those of average weight as fat tissue holds more water within it than do other tissues. • • • Leave the Normal Fat. One of the leading heavyweight wrestlers has a beautiful physique and is a fast, strong, intelligent, good-looking fellow. Although his weight is announced as 202 to 205, it is likely that his real weight is 10 to 15 pounds less. His muscles stand out on all parts of the body—the abdomen like a "washboard,” the upper back like a rectangle, and the arms and legs like whipcord. And he knows how to wrestle. However as his wrestling engage ments take him to all parts of the country, with a great amount of fast traveling—motor, train, and airplane—it is just a question how long his "nerves” will stand up un der the strain. Why' Simply because he may not have enough fat on and in his body. If he were a boxer, getting ready for an important bout, to be down as "fine” as he is at present would be wise because the boxer has to make a certain weight at a definite time. Also a boxer allows himself to accumulate a little fat between bouts. Practically all the heavyweight I wrestlers keep themselves comfort ably overweight—a little layer of fat covering their muscles. They lose 5 to 10 pounds during a 30 to CO minute bout, but have that 5 to 10 pounds back on the body for their bout the following night. Of course much of this 5 to 10 pounds that I comes and goes is made up of liq [ uids as wrestlers drink a great deal of water and sometimes beer; very few if any indulge in hard liquor. But to enable them to get rid of this weight, perspire properly dur ing the bout, and have the weight back the next evening, there must be a comfortable layer of fat under the skin and throughout the body to hold this water. Every pound of fat can hold three pounds of water. Another benefit to the athlete of a little fat on and in the body and also the use of a little fat daily in the diet, is that fat "spares” to some extent the muscle tissue which is burned up during the exercise. That is, fat on or in the body sup plies the heat and energy during work or exercise and thus preserves the muscle tissue—the strength giv ing or strength part of the body. Of course when all the fat is used up and work continues then the muscles of the body have to supply the fuel for energy - CW To SEW 4'^“ Ruth Wyeth Spears cj?^ r, .. ■ ... ... , . ,— i ■ ■ —■ _ If You Are Making a Crazy Patch Quilt. \/fAKING an old fashioned silk crazy patch quilt is a simply fascinating thing to do. From the moment you start collecting bits of silk and satin and velvet until the second you invent your last combination of embroidery stitches it holds your interest. This type of quilt is not quilted after piecing, but tied like a com forter. No padding is needed if soft warm material is used for the foundation. The pieces are always in irregular shapes—often very tiny and the largest is seldom more than four or five inches long. They are pinned or basted to a foundation of soft muslin, flan nel or an old wool blanket is good to use. One patch shown here is a piece of ribbon and the selvages are not turned or covered. It is best to arrange a number of patches before you start to sew them in place with the embroidery stitches. The embroidery is really used to give balance and unity to the whole design. If a patch seems too light make it darker by em broidering it in dark thread. If it seems too plain you can trace the little forget-me-not design shown here onto it and embroider it in natural colors or use some of the more simple designs shown here as fillers. Many more authentic old patch work stitches are in a new leaflet which is now included with the book offered herewith. This book also tells you how the draperies in today’s sketch are interlined.
