WILDE Given Serious COnsidera-
ton by Both Houses at
Present Session.
MANY PLANS SUGGESTED
Sentiment Said to Favor Turn
Ing Question Over to De.
partment Of Labor.

Unemployment and how to remedy It
WILL be one of the subjects considered by
Congress- at its present session.
Moreover. a probable outcome Of the
consideration and discussion of unem-
ployment by Congress- will be legislation
kiving the Secretary Of Labor broad
powers to deal with the question. II he
is given the powers which are requisite.
II will. Of course. be necessary to pro-
vide him with funds.
Other plans have been suggested. in
cludinR the establishment of a bureau
to deal with UNEMPLOYMENT
Secretary of Labor Wilson favors the
plan to clothe his department with au-
thoritv to take hold and try to find jobs
for the unemployed.
This plan. from present indication. will
meet with the support of the House La
Dor Committee. though this cannot be
said with certainty. as it w. not yet
taken It up.
Much to Learn.
Generally speaking. the members Of the
House Labor Committee are favorable
tn legislation which will solve the unem-
pIoyment problem. or make a beginning.
But there Is much to learn about 1t. and
that is a reason why there Is strong
sentiment for giving the Secretary of
Labor a good deal of latitude. that he
may evolve an organization which will
actually find men Jobs when they are
out of work.
It is probable the House Labor Com
mittee. which has various important
bills before 1t. will have hearings later
on OF persons who have given thought
TO unemployment Secretary Wilson
himself has had to make a study of 1t.
It will be recalled that at the time of
the Salem, Mass. fire he took hold of
the situation there. and. with only
fund of $500 available. found places for
most Of the men thrown out Of work.
Organization Needed.
One Of the men who may be heard is
Walter L. Sears. who was for years
head Of the Massachusetts, State bureau
in charge of unemployment. Mr.. Sears
is credited with having achieved valu-
able results. The facts the committee
wants to know go to the practical work.
inRs Of plans to meet the situation. 1t
is recognized that q successful scheme
involves a comprehensive and efficient
organization.
II the House Labor Committee reports
in favor of a plan. 1t Is likely to pass
the House. Chairman "Davy" Lewis. OF
eilce with the House in labor matters.
In the Senate. the outcome is not so
certain. The Senate Education and La
bor Committee is less sympathetic with
labor problems than the House COM
fnittee. STILL II a workable plan Is re-
ported TO the Senate. 1t will not be easy
to block II.

OF the word, says Kibby. The longer
a mans jaw bone, the greater his
capacity for affection, according to
klbby. All these things are as ap-
p1cable 20 women as to men, in the
experts opinion.
In conclusion, Mr. Kibby lays down
the following list OF 'don'ts:"
|. Don't propose to man who
has thin lips. He will scorn you.
2. Don't propose to man who
has just thin upper lip. He'll scorn
you.
5. Don't propose to man whose
head runs straight up from the back
OF his neck. He loves neither home
nor wife.
4. Don't propose to man with
super-tritical eye. He'll make you
sorry.

!. Propose to a man who has a

head. He is a good family man and

sitions of various sorts OF men, which
is intended to help the girls win

rebuff in the process.
A good deal of what Kibby says is
based upon phrenology, A man who
has thin. straight lips is branded a
cold-blooded, stony-hearted creature
upon whom the dearest girls appeal
would have no effect. This sort Of
man will do his own proposing, run
his own wedding and rule his house
hold; and he'll do it more with his
head than his heart. But if the man
OF your choice has full, Well-fOrmed
lips kibby says you may depend
upon his capacity for and inclination
to love. He also is susceptible to the
right sort of feminine approach. Kib-
by says the way to tell whether the
one you love. loves you, is by the
Coloring Of the under lip when he is
with you Every human emotion
gives some physical demonstration
when it is aroused The evidence
that love has been aroused is given
by the deep crimsLing of the under
lip. If his under lip is perpetualy
