Not Away

4The world will be fooled so let's fool it, was
the life philosophy Of Bolo Pasha, whom the
French are going to execute for treason.
The trouble with this philosophy is that the world
doesn't stay fooled for long, and when the world
finds out, it is likely to take off the foOers head
and show it to him, figuratvely speaking.
Indeed, most of the fellows whom history calls
great were merely foolers. Way back, there was
Alexander who tried to fool the world into believ-
ing there was nothing more to conquer, by per-
sonal weeping, when he hadn't even conquered
himself He died, in his thirties, OF drink and
chronic lascviousness
Caesar, for time, fooled the world into thinking
that Rome was the world and himself Rome. Pretty
soon some of his intimate friends stuck their knives
into him.
Napoleon temporarily, made Europe think that
it couldn't get along without him. Europe came to,
and Napoleon passed his last years on lonely isl
and plagued by just ordinary stomach trouble.
Comes now William Hohenzollem. Having fool
some So 900 folks into belief that he is Gods
viceregent entitled to world dominion, he tries to
fool the whole world about it, and he too, will find
that it doesn't really pay.
To be sure the world is fooled, often. But, in Sc
lecting world-foolery as life business, fellow
ought to include determination to cash in early
and provide reliable cyclone cellar in advance.
Therein Bolo Pasha failed, and they're going to
hang him, or spoil his philosophy in some other
way equally as thoro.

Sometimes, as I sit at my window at this canton
ment, I think Of the psychology of clothes. Put me
into the rough and-ready riding things of my West
em trips, and am vagabond Put almost any
frivolous girl into nurses uniform and watch her
very thoughts sober and change. And so wonder
about an army uniform.
It makes a difference in man. He develops the
esprit de corps of the army. We have excellent ex
lamples of this in our police force and among our
postal carriers. They the badges of great or
CARNATIONS. They are marked men. And they
carry well the dignity of their positions.
What of unifol1ning laborf Surely the man at
home, in muntion and shipbuilding plants, in all
the other industries which are fighting this as
certainly as the soldiers at the front-surely that
man deserves to wear uniform showing what he is
doing
And venture to go further. Put labor into uni
FORM and many of our labor troubles will cease.
LIT need not be the army uniform. It should not be-
But by doing this the man himself will develop
esprit de corpsthe conviction that he is of those
chosen to help. He is, wherever he goes, marked
man, man given, as truly as any soldier, to the
lcountry's service. Think it over, employers Of
labor lying awake nights to hold your organizations
together.-Mary Roberts Rinehart, in Saturday
Evening Post.

Dear Miss Grey: Now that
your "trousers-for-women" dis
cussion has closed, l presume
you will permit mere man to
say a few words.
1t runs in my mind that wom-
en-, not men were the first to
wear trousers, discarding them
for skirts that men first wore,
as they gradually exchanged po-
sitions of drudgery, or in some
instances where the women first
held supreme authority of the
tribe.
Some of the women in their
arguments against trousers said
what husband wants to come
home to a wife in pants?" 1
say, by all means let the mod
ern woman forsake her skirts to

It must forever remain a deep,
dark literary mystery as to WHY
all persons of the feminine per-
suasion who affect gardening are
named Maud"
Tennyson seems to have started
the fad by delivering his we'll
known poetic invitation--"Come
into the gerden, Maud"
The idea got SO much poetic
publicity and was SO convenient
for rural conversations that our
own Mr.. Whittier followed suit
a few years later and did a whole
poem about Maud who was ad-
|dicted to making hay so attrac-
lively that she almost caught a
husband by the process.
There is something so romantic
The Tacoma times. [volume] (Tacoma, Wash.) 1903-1949, 1918-02-23

and picturesque about these new
gardening costumes that one can
easily imagine whole regiments of
ladies DOMINIC the festive flow
cred cretonne, the inverted veg
etable basket, and shouldering
the neatly polished hoe, faring
forth to serve as CHORUS of
farmerettes" at the threshing
bees. and pausing every now and
then to hoe a beet or cultivate a
carrot.
Here are two fetching costumes
not designed, as one might sur
mise, for the first row of the
New York Winter Garden-but
intended for the serious filling of
the war garden. At the left is a

Dear Miss Grey; 1t is too
good a joke not to let you
have a good laugh, too.
"A Pupil" that asked you to
find the historical dates from
TITS to 1866 is in our building.
AS some OF we teachers ate
lunch today, his teacher told
us of this lesson she had as
signed and give her class
week TO work 1t up. She told
us how, we will call him Tom
because that isn't his name,
wrote to Cynthia Grey. who
sQuelched him most artistical-
ly.
The funny part was: He
boasted to all the pupils how
ne was going to have his work
done for him. They were all
on the lookout for your an
Ewer.
They ALL read It! or course,
they passed 1t on to the teacher,
and you man imagine how we
ell enjoyed 1t.
Needless to say all OF
Toms" schoolmates joked
him Numerically and today
his life was a bowling wilder
ness with the bottom knocked
out of II, which is exactly as

from earth-stains and rheumatics.
Indian women were the origi-
nal farmerettes of America and a
fanciful costume designer has
made up her mind that this is a
bit like the way Miss Minnehaha
looked when she went out 10 cul-
tivate her little Indian corn patch.
Here is revived a charming effect
I'm coarse tan linen with a semi
barbaric design in rose and green
thread, and a well-fringed hem
adds to its artistic fitness and
charm.
The two garden gowns at the
extreme right Of this group are
made of khaki. The first has a
smart belted coat and pleated
skirt of knee length. The coat has
-four roomy pockets and is made
The Tacoma times. [volume] (Tacoma, Wash.) 1903-1949, 1918-02-23

high necked and long-sleeved to
prevent too much sunburn. The
second costume is q loose combi-
nation blouse and bloomer Co.'S
tune made in one piece, fastened
down the front and hence easy
of access" It's special features
are the broad belt, big pockets,
and broad flat collar and soft tie
which render it extremely COM
Portable and becoming.
To save the khaki which Is
l1eded for the armies it is sug-
,es ed that women's garden uni-
forms might better utilize dark
blue or brown denim which is al
most as heavy as khaki and wears
rs well. or if lighter and cooler
'abric is desired, brown or blue
bingham Is Just the thing.

Another Advocate
Dear Miss Grey: 1t has been
my opinion for several years
that the feminine part of the
population would eventually don
trousers, or something very SIM
liar. It is most impossible and
ridiculous to thing of q two
legged human being in a one
legged garment, denying the
freedom of action and comfort
which nature intended we all

change from discomfort to COM
fort complete by keeping her
shoulders covered, and learn to
walk with ease by knocking the
French heels off my lady's
shoes. A MERE MAN.

should have.
Man discovered this thru
compulsion, and woman, after
nearly two thousand years, like
man, is driven to comfort thru
necessity.
In this day and age common
sense is bound to rule. In my
estimation it is time to hing the
skirt in the attic. Between the
two, in my estimation, the skirt
is the most vulgar, immodest,
unsanitary and suggestive gar
ment there Is.
As for that matter, every
being is endowed with a per-
sonality which will show itself
thru any texture or style of gar
ment, as our men have no need
to worry about the modesty of
woman disappearing when she
puts on trousers. Just give me
a chance and my skirts for one

Toms plight must have been
comical, I'll admit. But some
how 1 can't laugh over it. Here
in my work i meet face to face
some of the Toms and Marys and
Biliies grown to manhood and
womanhoOd who bluffed their
way thru school and then attempt
to bluff the world into giving
them an easy living. Invariably
they fall and fall hard sooner or
later.

Dear Miss Grey: I read the
letter signed Bernice regarding
the number "13" being up-
lucky. Ella Wheeler Wilcox
has written on superstitions,
spells. charms. etc, and men,
lions that thou ghts are vital
things" which seems to be the
key to the secret. The
thoughts of millions OF minds
must have an effect for either
good or evil. This is the rea-
son these primitive supersti-
tions often come true to their
