The boy is father to the man,
so runs the old adage, and Uncle
Sam, who believes in raising good
citizens as well as good crops and
good cattle, is paying a lot of at
tention to the youngsters who
have just started to school-the
citizens OF the next generation.
And the first thing he has
looked into is the school lunch
box-he wants to know what the
little citizens are eating while
they are studying-and incident
ally playing tag and football.
The midday lunch of the boy and
girl who has to grow and work
at the same time is most import
ant, SO Uncle Sam has turned a
whole section of the National Blu
reau of Education on the Job and
here's what one of his domestic
science teachers has to say about
school lunches:

Know Your Type and Enhance Your
Best Points, Says Pretty Gown Model

One has to understand ones
type il one wishes to make the
best of oneself. either as a beau
ty or a model.
Beauty" says Miss Beatrice
Allen. lis an indispensable part
of a gown models equipment.
1T is your work TO put on an
evening gown and wear IL in
such a way that the ugly little
woman who is looking lat 1t will
expect II to look the same on her
that it does on you.
Miss Allen Is of the beautiful
type that looks so we'll in the
wonderful embroideries and silks
and satins that have been the
mode for the last few seasons.
Miss Allen depends most upon
externals for the furthering of
her beauty and she knows just
the kind to use:
For instance. 'If you have the
wide apart eyes and the soIuptu-
Gus mouth of Miss Alien you
must add ca your simple muslin
frock "a line of poste jewels about
your neck and sleeves and add a
sparkling headdress that Will
give the finishing touch that
shows temperament and under
standing.
Miss Allen is a splendid exam
pie of what a girl can do to bring
out her beauty features. BY the
way, she has accumulated her
Oriental beauty and although her
gown is simple and girlish the
little bands of glittering stones
about the neck and sleeves COM
plete the effect.
IL you are a girl with the warm
beauty of Miss Allen you can
wear brilliant colors and dress
most individually. You will not
be outshown by your clothes.
And to be out-shown by ones
clothes is the most fatal thing
that can come to girl who
wishes to be called beautiful.

NEW YORK, Oct, II.
WHAT h LOVE?

NEW 1Ohk, OCT, II.
WHAT H LOVE?
That Is what everybody in
New York is asking everybody
else, as the result of the produce
ton of George Scarborough's play
bearing that title.
A young girl hesitating in her
choice between the cold, correct,
handsome lawyer to whom she is
engaged, and the schoolboy chum
who returns suddenly from abroad
and sweeps her into the midstream
of romance with an awakening
kiss, calls upon everybody in the
play to answer the great ques-
ton which life has asked of her:
What is love?
Suppose somebody should ask
you that question all of sudden,
wouldn't you founder and stutter
and perhaps say as the girls
fiance did, Why, love is love
that's all. What a silly question:"
and change the subject? Well,
that's what the people in the
play do at first, but when they
see how much in earnest their
little Lucy is they try to tell her.
This is what her sister-in-law
says:
Its just a sort of magnetic
thrill that goes through you like
like an apple toddy starts at
your finger tips and goes on till
It makes your toes tingle-and
then starts on the return trip
gathering volume as IL travels till
IL envelopes your whole world in
a sunburst of joyl'
Next Lucy confers with Cora,

who appears not to be more than
II, and confesses that she has
never loved the limit-yet," de-
scribes the feeling of kissing by
saying: Il was scared to death
but afraid to run! l was ashamed
sort of glad-ashamed!"
Then Lucy, remembering the
kiss from the man to whom she is
NOT engaged, interrupted: And
your face grew hot, and your
heart beat suffocatigly, and your
hand ached to grip his hand tight.

AS something which made a fell

OF course that description of a
mans feelings doesn't help the
bewildering Lucy very much and
she turns to his wife, who says:

table up there in the moonlight

on the table, with both of his. As

We started downtown to the

light that was never on sea

scious of my new gown, but ! only
saw pride and appreciation in
Dicks eyes every time l looked
at him.
All through the play l felt the
sympathetic warmth of Dicks
body pressed against mine. Again
that old sense of belonging
came over me and filled me with
unspeakable content.
AS the curtain went down on
the first act Dick said: "Margie.
you have never been over the
Rhine'-we'll go there after the
play and have some smearcase
and a glass of beer" My face
fell. "Oh, you can have coffee IL
you want it," said Dick, answer
ing the look.
In the middle of the next act IL
began to rain. From the sound
one could tell il was pouring, but
by the time we got out the
stars were out here and there and
there was only a sprinkle or two
Dick made a rush for the car
that would take us "over the
Rhine" As we neared the
crossing from which a stone paw
ing was worn away Dick let go my
arm suddenly to light a cigaret.
1 slipped and the high heel of my
pretty bronze slipper turned over
and down l went into the muddy
water of the rushing gutter. Il
was wet, my gown was ruined, my
ankle was aching and ] thought IL
was sprained.
Dick dropped his cigaret and
literally jerked me to my feet.

Q.-Aeeording to some of
the arguments l have read in
your columns, il would seem
that the married women have
an awful time of it. l will
admit that the woman who
has three or four small chill
dren from one to six years of
age and must do her own
work has a hard Job; but
taken on the average, L
think the woman's position
in a working mans home is
no worse than her husbands.
Such families as the above
are in the minority.
Most women have time to go
visiting and to shows during
the day, and when husband
comes home at night he
must help with the work,
chop wood, etc. Many a man
has been working ten hours a
day in the saw mills for
years with no time off ex-
eept Sundays.

the mills and watch the
men as they come from work
you would see young men
who are round shouldered
and as stiff jointed as an old
work-horse. q mean the
lumber mills.) There are
fewer women thus disfigured
by labor than men. How
many laborers do not go out
to work risking their lives
every day?
A woman, though she may
be tied to her work, can
find time to sit down now
and then, but a man must
Keep moving or he loses his
job.
I'm certain Miss Greeley

equivalent to a days work of
