n history as a flaming torchlight procession down the corridors of time. It has always seemed a dull chore from earliest school days, a matter of dates and ed heroes banged up with pa- triotic dishpan wallopings. The best fun we've gotten out of it has been try- ing to name all the U. S. Presidents in ten minutes. Whatever the reason has been, we don't know. Maybe we haven't any red, white and blue glands. Maybe a childhood nurse cracked us over the nut with Bancroft or Parkman in our cradle. Anyway that since we read Charles and M Beard’s “Rise of Ame Cc tion.” It is the last word in history and, for our part, they needn't write any more. The good Prof, and his frau know what they are talking about, having spent a lifetime at their subject. They have taken the whole sweep of our rise and put it into retrospect, making us part of world history and not an isolated, glorified mutation. From a us. The real cause of the War was the Industrial revolution going on in the world at that time. Which is but a simple illustration of how the authors have rehashed the matter. In addition this Beard’s-c3 illuminated with det. more on the nature of inside stuff and less of the schoolboy ballyhoo. Why did the Mexicans have to lose California? Well, when the Mexicans wished to return a salute, they had to borrow powder from Commodore Jones! And what their navy then? A ship so weather-beaten it couldn't against the wind! And so on. We advise you to read it, every little word, too, or maybe we'll burn a few crosses on your doorstep. e view is C. H. B. Kitchin’s “Death of My Aunt” is a good mystery puzzle, showing how several close relatives react to the sudden death of a mur- dered grand dame. It is logical, sus- tained, psychologically sound and worth an hour of your time. You will also relish Dorothy Ogburn’s intelli- gent “Ra-Ta-Plan—!", all about some fancy hell-raising down on Sna- wokce Island, where a houseparty is being given for several choice artistic nuts and peculiar others. A psycho- analyst is shot, which would be about the most civilized and excusable kill- ing done inside or outside book cov- ers in the past fifteen years. —Tep Suane sail | y, we're all over with | HER LONGEST WALK IS FROM CURB TO CAR... YET SHE HAS “ATHLETE’S Foot!” HE simply /ires behind the wheel of her car. Her friends say that if the front door were a bit wider, she'd park her auto in the living room and save herself walking at all. Yet for all her sole-saving habit she has a most bothersome case of the ringworm infec- tion commonly called “Athlete's Foot"! And she doesn’t know what the little rash-likeerup- tion of tiny blisters between her toes* means. How many millions of Americans share this girl's affliction and, like her, wonder what it is! * Many Symptoms for the Same Disease— So Easily Tracked into the Home “Athlete's Foot” may start in a number of different ways,* but it is now generally agreed that the germ, tinea trichophyton, is back of them all. It lurks where you would least expect it—in the very places where people go for health and recreation and cleanliness. In spite of modern sanitation, the germ abounds on locker- and dressing-room floors—on the edges of swimming pools and showers—in gymnasiums—around bathing beaches and bath-houses—even on hotel bath-mats. And from all these places it has been _* WATCH FOR THESE DISTRESS SIGNALS THAT WARN OF “ATHLETE'S FOOT” ‘Though “Athlete's Poot” is caused by the germ— tinea trichephyton—its easly stages manifest themselves: in several different ways, usually between the tocs— sometimes by redness, sometimes by skin-cracks, often by tiny itching blisters. The skia may turn white, thick and moist, of it may develop dryness with hale scales.

It is so easily overlooked at first that it has stolen up on the entire Nation until now the United States Public Health Service finds "Is is prob- able that at least one-half of all adults suffer from it at some time."” And authorities say that half the boys in high school are affected. There can be no doubt that the tiny germ, tinea trichophyton, has made itself a nuisance in Ameria. It Has Been Found That Absorbine Jr. Kills This Ringworm Germ Now, a series of exhaustive laboratory tests with the antiseptic Absorbine Jr. has proved, by bacteria counts and by photomicrographs, that Absorbine Jr. penetrates deeply into flesh-like tissues, and that wherever it pene- trates it hills the ringworm germ.
