A re- port of the incMent was made to 5th precinct police by Anthony Pascarella, the man held up. A battle for the position of chief of the-Hempstead fire department appeared likely today, when it was indicated that two fire companies, Engine companies No. 1 and No.*3, which Fire Chief Austin B. Ryan ordered disbanded last week, would run a ticket in opposition to the re-election of the present chief. The companies obtained a court order preventing Chief Ryan from disbanding them. More than 300 friends and cam- paign supporters of Mayor George M.

I ceriain- ly read every word of it carefully, and so do my friends,. I only re- gret that it doesn't appear every day. Please print these tips so every girl can benefit from them and know what a fellow wants and looks for in a girl. Speaking from the fellow's* point of view, we want a girl: 1. Who is hot too forward, and who doe# not write us notes, tell- ing us they lixe us, even before we know them very well. This puts any girl in a bad light. 2. Who is not boisterous and who does not talk loudly in order to appear popular or to attract attention, 3. Who can dance quite well, and. who does not insist on lead- ing. Incidentally, the girl. who hangs on a fellow's shoulder is out, too. . - 4. Who knows how to use makeup in a way that-is becom- ing. -It can be done, and lucky is the girl who knows how. The girl who smears it on is: definitely taboo,: 5. Who dresses well. This-is an important factor the rating of girls, and all femmes who take a little time and care can, dress nicely. They don't need expensive clothes, but merely clothes chosen with care. 6.

Who has good manners .and Willkox V etoes Finnish Aid, Editor, Nassau Daily Review-Star: Shooting at two birds with one letter, these are my thoughts on the Finnish situation, and also on the relief situation. As to the Finns, J hold with the U. S. A. in a fairly desperate con- dition, our slogan should. be \Charity begins at home-Aid for the Okies, not Funds\for the Finns,\ or anyone else engaged in the struggle across the water. The basic background for this at- titude is the idea that a real at- tempt will be made to sell us down the river again '(and a sharp eye should be kept on Washington also) by substituting whatever na- tion appears to most readily ap- peal to our sympathies at the pres- ent time, for the Belgium of the last time! The nations most concerned with the Finns, due to their direct Involvement or close proximity to the situation, do not appear to have been nearly as wrought up maul;Ithe matter as our newspa- pers here. Have you considered that Eng- land has not rendered very effec- tive aid to any of those promised with same-and that possibly she is finding Germany a more formidable adversary than at frst anticipated? Wonder if she had some assurance we would help, and now finding a most concerted public opinion here against getting our faces slapped , twice in- one generation, finds herself out on a limb? I for one believe: peace would bein sight earlier if it were made plain that Uncle Shylock of the last war will remain plain Uncle Sam in this. France at the moment has plenty of dissension on it's hands, and England is going to have. The people. of both these countries I believe are not ready for the slaughterhouse twice in one gen- eration, 'either. Also it is quite probable many thinkers in each of. these.countries realize they are living 'n ho , the mortgages on which, created by the last war far exceed the value of the houses and that they top must go through the utter bankruptcy which Germany has passed through-which bank- ruptcy will be somewhat easier if the load of another war is not piled on the load of a past war. Please note, Student of Current Events, and become also a Student of Past Events Are you watching the cellar-ward trend of the Eng- lish pound? As to our relief problem-we, too, are living in -a house, the mortgage on which is considerably more than the value of same; also due to our last attempt to \Make the World Safe for Democracy- The Rights of Smail Nations and the Freedom of the Seas\ in other words .to pull Britain's chestnuts out of the fire. Back in the sub- conscious minds of those com- plaining about relief is the uneasy sensation they too are headed for the relief rolls unless some -of their load is lifted. I am afraid the load is not going to be lifted and the subconscious feeling is going to prove correct, We too are going through the bankruptey which was temporarily averted in 1932.~ Who: would have finally happened had we gone all the way down then, I don't know but a. foundation would have been laid for real re- vival instead of phony spurts) of revival which will end when the schemes give out-and the debts can no longer be found. So, don't scratch the eruptions on the skin as to who should have done what for the Poleg the Finns, etc., and whether or not some per- sons on relief own automobiles or may be chiselers in one form |or another, but devote some real thought to methods of softening the blow that is coming to us when all the rabbits have been pulled out of the hat!

With: cigarette, a match and a light, their first need is to dispose of the match somehow, somewhere. They then, get down' to the serious business of inhaling and puffing intermittently. Oftentimes, we see smokers knocking ashes from their cig- arettes or trying to dislodge par- ticles of tobacco which may have become deposited on tongue or lips, blowing and brushing ashes aside, nervously and impatiently: finger- ing cigarette and match awaiting an opportunity -to smoke, hitting the end of a cigarette before light- ing up, puffing with head turned upward when in a crowd, fanning their own cigarette smoke, squint- ting and closing their. eyes when smoking, stealing a smoke now and then, getting but a few puffs out of a new cigarette, and smoking under a No Smoking sign. Disposition ofa cigarette may be by means of ash tray,» flipping, throwisg out of a window, or pressing under foot. Economically and Bowery-minded smokers save unsmoked portions in vest pocket, or purse, for future use; thought that keeps a smoker smok- ing. His belief may be that each new smoke gives him a longer lease on life, who knows! SURVEILLANCE, 'Meisser and Philip N. THE NASSAU DAILY REVIEW-STAR--THURSDAY,.

What am I to do? -O. N.\ Tok BECKLEY This rip-tide comes in all mar- riages. The ship must be kept balanced and steady until under its skipper's firm hand it reaches smooth water. You are its skip- per, and a skipper takes orders from no one for he is, or should be, wise to the ways of tricky cur- rents. To a determined wife, nothing is impossible. \Easy does. it\ - the quiet manner and the steady purpose. This purpose must not be to change an ugly husband into a cherub, for it can't be done, even \with mirrors.\ Every smart wife knows it is herself who must be changed-her temper held. her tongue guarded, her patience strengthened. her forgiveness warmed up again and again, It is hard but entirely possible, And how it pays and pays! Separation won't help. Sticking together will. Once marriage has brought a woman a home and children, the seal is set upon her, Separation or even divorce will not erase it. She doesn't want it vrased. And neither will her husband, once he sees the clever -revair- work that has started and the program of building that's under way-in which he must.co-oper- ate. And he will, if it is cleverly, presistently required of him. THE COMPLEX LIFE \* * * A girlfriend and I broke up. recently after a two-year friendship.

Hateful, if you ask us, and if you don't. More men are afflicted with it than women, possibly because they are in the habit of moistening their ambrosial locks daily, the moist scalp inviting the tiny flakes to come along and find a home. This trouble is caused by a germ. It is a fungus, something like yeast. It is one six-thousandths of an inch long, in case you are interested in knowing its size. What is important is that dandruff is contagious. If papa has it, ma- ma should never use his comb or brush. Dandruff may have no'ill effects upon the growth of the hair, but it makes a grand stamping ground for infectious diseases, therefore one should make every effort to be rid of it. A< recommended treatment consists ofe applications of hot olive oil or-mineral oil the night before the shampoo which should be of the blandest soap, melted, and thoroughly removed with running water. Massage is desirable because it hustles up the bldod stream. Brushing is neces- sary; it helps to keep the scalp clean. « + % Right in her element is the long- legged girl. She is the gall, lily- like type; fashions of the moment were made for her, The long, bouffant evening skirts are her dish, and the cunning bodices, too, with shirrings, berthas, laces, em- broideries and all the other pretty sartorial nonsense. Her common trouble is thin arms. She should get a pair of Indian clubs at a store where sporting ~goods are: sold, swirlg them night and morning. It's swell for bust and chest develop- ment. Friction with cocoanut oil will not only create a more graceful contour of the arms, but will lay a white satin finish on the skin. Calling All Dogs By ALFRED PAYSON TERHUNE What Your Dog Eats Yesterday I quoted to you a part of an \open letter\ written by Leon F. Whitney to the secre- tary of agriculture, seeking to se- cure a square deal for dogs. I am going to quote morg of it today. Says Whitney: ~ \If Connecticut may be taken as typical of the country's dog population and if we actually have twice as many dogs as are li- censed-and I believe we do if we count puppies-there are in that state ©210,000 dogs. (One dog to every 8.17 persons. Applying this average to the whole United States, there appear to be 15,586,- 000 dogs in our country. Just how much food is consumed by so im- mense a number? \The more food consumed, the larger the number of men put to work to supply it; the more land needed to produce it. I believe the average dog weighs about 40 pounds; that he eats about 1500 calories a day; that about 65 per cent of his diet is animal flesh; and 35 per cent. vegetables. \If there were only 13,500,000 dogs, the total amount of food daily consumed would be 20,000,- 000 pour«'s. What I think can worry you is the pressure the American farmer, if once he finds out how much his welfare is bound up in the dog-food indus- try, will exert on your depart- ment.\ GUILTY OF FORGERY / George Vanderwater Is Remanded For Sentence On April 16 Forging the name of a co- maker to a note for an $85 loan today placed George Vanderwater, 30, of Front street, East Rocka- way, in the Nassau county jail, awaiting sentence on a second de- gree forgery charge. He pleaded guilty yesterday 'before County Judge Cortland' A. Johnson and was remanded for sentence on April 16, An indictment returned by the Nassau grand, jury accused Van- derwater of signing the name of Mrs. May Adams of 57 tth Park avenue, Rockville Centre, to a note which he: tendered to the Nassau County National bank of Rockville Centre last- December 19 for a loan of $85 which was grant- ed. He lost his job shortly after and was unable to make payments on the loan. While making his plea, the de- fendant told the court he signed Mrs, Adams's name because she told him she was willing to sign but that ber husband refused to permit her to do so. Vanderwater said he obtained the loan to buy Christmas presents for his family. Guarding I Your | | Health | ®-By Dr. Logan Clendening-4 Mobilizing Against Cancer PRIL is cancer control month as provided by congress. In 46 states the Women's Field Arm Against Cancer is conducting active educational program. Not very long ago cancer was a taboo topic. Everyone knew it existed and nobody dared men- tion it. Even now it is considered an unpleasant word. But the fact that it is an unwelcome or dis- agreeable subject does not cance! the obligation of the writer on public health to discuss it The dangers which are present for the speaker or writer before the public on the subject are, first that he will make it disgusting and, second, that he vlill create \ unnecessary fear s + % \ Needn't Be Present HE first danger need never be present,. Cancer is a clean disease and not disgusting; in fact one of the points in the fight against it.is that it is so unob- trusive, it makes itself known so little, that the early stages are liable to be passed before any- thing is done. As for the second danger, that of creating unnecessary fear, time has moved on so that we do not fee} that way any more. 'There is something to be done for cancer and the earlier it is done, the more effective it is. So we fr -] in draw- ing attention to cancer-its danger and its symptoms-ve are hot idly or unnecessarily frightenin; you because we have somthing con- crete and constructive to offer in the way of cure, which was not true a fow decades ago. I like the distinction that has been made between a hesith ar- ticle that, instead of \sraring you to death,\ \scares you to.life.\ If you are scared to the extent that you have something done to save your life, it is a good thing to scare you a little. U # # Hope{ul Example HOPEFUL example exists in the Cured Cancer club, spon- sored by Dr. Anna C. Palmer, of Milton, Massachusetts, who herself was operated on for cancer in 1920. There were 20,195 people listed by the American College of Surgeons in 1938 as cured of can- cer. There must be many more. The Cured Cancer club is open to anyone who is voiced for by his physician as having been tured of cancer for at least five years. The applicant need only subscribe to the statement, \I am willing to be known publicly as a cured can- cer patient.\ This column will discuss one of the phases of cancer.ouee a week during the month of April. I do not want to make the subject op- pressive but feel that it is. my duty to bring good news from the fighting front of cancer control To aid in cancer control, edu- cational pamphlets on \The Fight of the Women's Field Army Against Cancer\ and \What to Know-What to Do About Can- cer\ are distriuted by the Ameri- can Society for the Control of Can cer, 350 Madison Avenue,.

R.: \I have read that when horses are killed to ottain gland- ular extracts for medicinal pur- poses, the rest of the meat of the animal is used to make dog meats and some of the choice cuts used for meat for humans. Horse mea, I hear, is high in vitamins and perfectly fit for human consump- tion. Is such a thing possible?\ Answer: Horses are not used for glandular extracts. lenty of glands are obtained from the car- casses of other animals at the packing houses. In France horse meat is a common food, and spe- cial butcher shops-Boucherie de cheval-are common I have eaten horse meat and found it palatable,.more so than venison. I do not know that it contains any more vitamins than other meats.
