I Say* Mr. A. H. Ward. Montreal, Quebec: 'The use of harsh, irritating cathartics i j a thing of the past in our house When we found out tout KEL^OGG'S ALL-BRAN, (several yearj ago, we knew that at last Uus was our way to be 'regular'. I've made it a habit to recommend ALL-BRAN to my friends." Why don't you try ALL-BRANT! "Better Way" to correct the cause of constipation due to lack of the right land of "bulk" in your diet. But remember, ALL-BRAN doesn't work like cathartics. It take* time. Get ALL-BRAN at your grocer's, in two convenient size package!, or ask for the individual serving package at restaurants.

Picture, Kathleen, Starring Shirley Temple SYNOPSIS At the suggestion of Lorraine Bennett who ',* angling for John Davis, Or. A. Martha Kent doctor f abnormal psychology, has moved Into the Day's home to "cure" Kathleen, Mr, Davia' twelve-year- eld motherless shlld who has got- ten out of hand because of his neglect. Kathlaen haa developed a strong attachment for Dr. Kent vvftom ahe csfia "Angel", a con- traction ef the "A.", or Angela, pert ef her name which she does not use. Equally strong Is the eMId's dislike for Miss Bennett whom she Is sure wants to marry her father for hie money. CHAPTER ThREE Kathleen wo* right In believing ttaat Dr. Kent to him "An- sjel" to aar waa effecting just as moch change In her father as she was In ie: . She was, to gome extant, wrong. In her conclusions as to the reaaofid 'or the change. It would - liard for a little a-lr:, In whom * aew love waa bnd- ding, to underhand that a purely professional attitude purely pro- fewional togt; was the weapon. pretty girl might choose to effect ny result where a handsome mar- riageable man -*as Involved. And yet A Martha Kent doctor f abnormal ;rychology, was Just ttch a peculiar, pretty girl. It badn't take-u her long to dis- cover that If any member o( the Davis family needed a mental doc- tor It wasn't th<s neglected daugh- ter but nX-.f the heglectful father. She had be-;:i shocked at Mr. Davis' disclosure of abystua! Ig- norance of Kathleen's affairs at her first Inter, lew with him and Mr. Davis had been made to know It On every occasion since, conver- sation between them had had to do with Kathieeu and her needs. John Davit?' education as to what was expecteu ">' the father of a motherless eu'.! '. was not proving easy. "Tomorrow." Dr. Kent told him one evening ''you and your daugh- ter are goloft out for the whole day alone ' "Well, that i.muds fiue and I'd like it * :i," Mr. Davis re- ylied blandly "but. you see, 1 won't be here comorrow. I'm driv- ing up to Sayl'rook tonight." 'I don't think you ought to go." said Dr. Ken' calmly. "But these v'-'M'le are expecting me," argued Mr Davis, ". . . and besides, I'v-tj already dined at home twice tW.< week." Usually Dr. Kent's argument for the "cooperation" she expected on behalf of her ' "patient" was no- thing more th in silent disapprov- al of Kathleei. < father's viewpoint. This time sh*} went considerably ceyotid that, "Ye* you :'. j aily deserve a gold :ar on your report card for a big sacrifice like :nat," she fiarej in sudden anger mid then, embar- rassed: "I'm <orry, Mr. Davis; 1 guess I shoui.'. not have said that but, honest!/ alter twelve years ot giving Kata^eu only the . . . fringes of your mind ami heart. I'm rather sur* that two dinners * at home Ju*> don't let you out." Her cmploj-! looked and smil- ed slowly. H? rose from his chair and crossed over to where hia op- ponent sat. In mock solemnity he raised her right hand high above her head. "The winner and still cham- pion," he said with a laugh that dispelled the tension. "Tomorrow we take her on a plcalc." "No, you do," Dr. Kent replied. "I'U beg off at the -aat minute." Then she looked up at him anxi- ously and asked: "Do you really gee some logic in this or are you Just playing along with a crack-brain?" "Indeed, no: I agree with you entirely," Kathleen's father replied and there was significant extra sincerity in his tone when he add- ed: "In fact, I think you're won- derful!" Any doctor of psychology would have been pleased at such a com- pliment and few pretty girl doctors could have escaped the possible ambiguity of its meaning. Angela covered her embarrassment with a purely professional remark. "You understand, of course, Mr. Davis." she said, "that it is my feeling that, since Kathleen has no mother, you will have to give her more of yourself than most fathers." "I suppose, in a way," Mr. Davis mused, "it was selfish of me not to marry again." "It would hare been better for Kathleen." Dr. Kent ventured tim- idly. "I know that now but I didn't realize tt before," her employer continued. "Pretty soon, perhaps. I may be able to set that right." Angela's mind flashed back to several of Kathleen's Iktle tricka of strategy which had been too obvious tor her to miss and a fear not altogether unpleasant which had already been planted in her heart, began to grow. "You're you're thinking of get- ting married?" she asked. "Well. It seeos to fit In. doesn't it," was Mr. Davis' answer. Angela blundered on. "I don't want to pry," she said, "but are you planning to marry before Kath- leen leaves for school?" The butler interrupted their conversation. As Angela went back to her room she pondered every word of her employer's answer to her last question. "Oh. It's not as definite as that." he had said. "I haven't even asked her yet. I'm the kind of a guy that has to be pretty sure of his ground. I don't know whether she'll have me. Til just have to wait and see how things develop as time goes on watch and pray!" Next morning Kathleen's father gave every indication that be had accepted. In full spirit. Dr. Kent's plan for his spending a whole day in the woods alone with his daugh- ter. He was positively gay when he rapped on her door. "Get your things together we're going on a plonic," he called out. Kathleen's delight knew no bounds. "We are Just the two of us?" she fairly shouted. "No. sir! The two of us and a lady ... a rather special lady!" her rather answered. And Kath- leen, with her own very special ideas, just whooped. "I know the lady don't IT" slie laughed. 4s she grabbed a sweater ami started downstairs ahead of Mm. "You certainly do." her father answered gaily. "I think she's super-special." the child called back. I<orvaine Bennett was waiting i the library. "Isn't it fun about our picnic?'' she Rushed and Kathleen's bub- ble burst. All he could say WM "Hello, Miss Bennett" and 1n the dreariest of toues. "Oh, come now." the charmer replied, "plcknlckers can't call each other 'Miss'. Call me 'Lor- raine', won't you?" "All right. Lorraine," Kathleen said with due obedience but liar father, as he came in. couldn't help noticing her manner of ile- flation as she tried to respond * Ukraine's blurb* about the glories f hard boiled eggs In their sheiks, friend chicken, and other time hon- ored ptcnlo delicacies. a "Well, you're a tunny one." remarked. "Now that you're faoe to < with. Lorraine you **m to hve ioat your toojpte n.l 11 the wonderful things yoe; aid about her tavstaln!" Kathleen's "Where's Angela?" might have told him something If Ik* had been reasonably observant. "Oh h Angela isn't feeling too well bit of a headache," be answered. "She's not going with us." "If you'll excuse me, pleaee, I'd like to go and see how she Is," said Kathleen as she hurcied from the room. "Who's Angela?" Lorraine ask- ed. "Oh, Dr. Kent," Mr. Davis re- plied. "Dr. Kent? . . . but she had some grim sort of name Abigail or Maria didn't she?" Mr. DarU grinned. "Martha, you're thinking of," he said. "Call* herself 'A. Martha Kent' but the kid has apparently wormed out of her that her first name 1* 'An- gela.' 'S matter of fact, It suits her better than Martha. She looka more like an Angela. She's a swell person Kathleen took to her right away." Lorraine gave him a probing look. "I'm so glad," she said. Kathleen wasn't thinking of de- ception when she stormed Into An- gela's room to find her, In perfect health, seated at her desk at work on another treatise on abnormal psychology. She accepted Angela's truthful statement that since she didn't know such a person as Lor- raine existed she couldn't have know that Mr. Davis had invited her to share their ontlng. "Angela, are you going to let that woman interfere with our plans?" Kathleen demanded ex- citedly. "We had no plans for today," waa Angela's calm answer. "I mean our plans for you to marry father." the youngster blurt- ed out. "Why, Kathleen! I never heard such nonsense!" a completely non- plussed psychologist exploded. "Well are you going to let her? Dou't you want to marry aim? You've said he was awfuly good looking . . . and very intelll- ' gent." Kathleen rattled on. "You're supposed to be here to make me happy and I don't notice you doing much ahout It!" "My deai- Miss Davis," the floundering Angela countered, "the sooner you discover that the world doesn't revolve wound you, the better off you'll be. Your father has his lite and I have mine and Miss Wliat's-Her Name has hers!" "I wolUn:t give a nickel for hers." said Kathleen scornfully. Angela was bealJe herself. "Will you stop talking and get ready for your picnic?" she demanded. "Way?" Kathleen asked with quiet significance. "Because I say so!" Angela fair- ly shouted. When Kathleen had left the doc- tor in psychology turned to what she had been writing. "There is never any excuse for one's losing one's tempef with a child." it read. She picked it up. savagely tore it into shreds, and threw It Into the waste basket! (To Be Continued) Admiral Thomas C. Hart All naval operations in the Far East will be directed by Admiral Thomas C.

POSTUM 152 Takes Six Months To Complete Ship Parts of Hull Are Made Inland and Assembled At Shipyard Britain's shipbuilders are win- ning the race with the U-boata. Large steamers and motor- ships of 10,000 tons are now be- ing completed, from the laying ef the keel to the final coat of paint, in juac under six months. Indeed, by making parts of the hull and so on in distant workshops in- land and assembling them at the shipyard, the six months have been reduced to five and a half. Never before has Great Britain turned out ships at such a speed; and it is speed that has decided the peace-time controversy about whether the hulls of big mer- chant ships should be riveted or welded. Welding is not only quicker but it saves steel, so welding has won. More steel is being saved by the use of concrete for small craft. Hundreds of ferro-con- crete barges have been built, re- leasing- hundreds of skilled ship- builders from the barge build- ing yards to work on oeean-golnf tonnage. There they are concentrating upon the well-tried standard "eco- nomy" types of vessels which many famous Britiah shipbuild- ers had already evolved. The shipyards were prepared when war came for an expand- ing production. The Admiralty passed the word to them for so many tankers, refrigerated cargo liners, coasters, deep-sea tramps, and standardization has tri- umphed. Nazi Air Power Cut 35 Percent Many Planes Lost In Middle East In Addition to Losses in Rust a Aviation observers estimated recently that losses in the cam- paign against Russia have reduc- ed the German Air Force to about 65 per cent of its peak strength. They noted in this connection that there has not been a really big raid on Britain since the Rus- sian war began last June 22. "The German Air Force is lit- erally worn out," said a reliable commentator with excellent sourc- es of information. "The pilots are tired and there is a real short- age of planes in certain categor- ies. To all appearance^ the Ger- man Air Force is just about 36 per cent under what it was. for instance, when it gave London its first heavy fire-bomb attack just a year ago." In addition to the .<..-<: in the Russian campaign, this source said, the German's air strength has suffered severely in the Middle East. "With the Luftwaffe in its present condition," he said, "Hit- ler can't just laugh off the 476 planes uhich the British shot down, iii:-tri'yed or captured from Niv. 18 (the start of the British RECTAL SORENESS AND PILE TORTURE QUICKLY RELIEVED It >uu ale ..!.:. <-il \vtlh ....: .- piles 01 ..:,.
