Between
Ourselves

Despite the fact that the hat
pin law is now in force there
are thousands of women who
persist in wearing those mon
strous, stiletto-like pins.
Now, we do not wish TO
brighten you, but if policeman
steps up and taps you on the
shoulder and tells you that you
are under arrest, you will have
no one TO blame but your dear
THOUGHTLESS self.
1t has been found that the
SHORT hatpins which the new
law prescribes hold the hat on
just as securely as the ten and
twelve-inch kinds.
We don't believe that the aver
age woman would DELIBER-
ATELY put out another PERSONS
eye, and we certainly don't be-
lieve that the average woman
would exactly relish a free ride
in the precinct wagon.
Beware of trouble! Danish the
