DREN ARE TAUGHT WORTH
 OF KINDNESS

Mothers with their baby folk gath cred at the Shelton school play grounds yesterday where Miss Bessie L. Taft of Hartford entertained them with a program of educational stories, bearing the moral of kindness to every living creature.' Miss Taft is one of the most interesting teachers of the State Humane Society and has addressed thousands of schools, play grounds and churches where she brought to the hearts of the young sters the spirit and worth of kindne and thoughtfulness to others.
 Urging the children to join the Band of Mercy, Miss Taft offered pledges to be signed which read: "I will en- deavOr to treat every living creature with kindness and will try to protect them" The pledge covers a splendb1 thought instilled into the little hearts. IL covers thOughtfulness for mothers, teachers, the aged, the crippled, the helpless, kindness to the animals at home or on the street, to the birds, and the wild crea lures of the woods and fields. The stories Miss Taft had for her audience dwelleL on the ami mals in. this vicinity, and were edu- cational as well as fascinating.
 Miss Taft will visit the Beardsley park, Old Mill Green, Columbus school, Hall school and Waltersville school playgrOunds today. and tomorrow she will delight the children at the Wash .ington school, Whittier. Newfield, Ma plewood. Read, Elias Howe and Sea- side park.

DEMAND COLOR IN WOMEN'S
 CLOTHES

Umbrellas to match gloves" That's the latest fad to take Fifth avenue by storm. A great vogue is predicted, in view of unprecedented demands for color in everything women will wear this fall and winter.
 Novelty gauntlets in two and three tone combinations with wrist straps, and also slip-ons, are all the rage now" said one prominent dealer yes terday. With the novelty gloves are umbrellas in contrasting colors, with plum, myrtle and navy the most pop ular shades, are the most fashionable now'
 France is contributing few novelty gloves for this fall, it is reported, and American made ones for street wear are coming into high favor French lambs of domestic make are in great demand, coming in silks and chamoi- settes, with three rows in embroidery and strapped wrists. The various de- signs are embroidered in the stripes upon the backs of the gloves all the leading shades, heliotrope, brown, navy, tan and cordovan.
 The demand for color in all women's clothes has even extended to house. hold effects, dealers say. Art goods are being sold faster than they can be supplied. Even stampe1 guest towels and Turkish towels are being demanded by artistic purchasers.
 And in harmony with the taste for bright colors and decorations novelty handmade bead necklaces in all shapes and styles of beads are coming into prominence, after being the rage in Paris for a year.

INTRODUCE STORY TELLING 6 IN
 WATERBURY

The splendid work conducted by the Bridgeport Community Service association has attracted the attention of other cities in the state who are now following the example of this city by organizing on the same plane and introduce several of the features which have proven of such great in terest here. The Waterbury Com munity association which is just or ganizing has extended an invitation to the local association to visit the city tomorrow and demonstrate some of the work.
 Mrs. Sara Sherman Pryor, conduc- tor of the story telling program, with two of her best story tellers, Miss Der tha Taft and Miss Martha Hanson, will introduce a program of their in imitable stories when they reach Wat erbury tomorrow. Miss Taft and Miss Hanson will wear the gypsy cos tunes, and if weather be permissible will make wandering tour through the city telling charming tales.
 Miss Stella Worth Jones, woman or ganizer, and F. Brown, head of the Community work, will accompany Mrs. Pryor and the story telIers. AL though a number of other cities have organized Community Service centers. Bridgeport has the distinction of be- ing the first city in the country to successfully introduce the novel scheme of story telling. Much of the success of the work is due to Mrs. Pryor.

we have also another task right here at home. We have got to edu- cate the American people up to buy ing paintings and to teach them that they should patronize American art. Because America artists are not only Americana, but tOday-both women and men-they are painting the best pictures of any artists anywhere in tho world. And why should Ameri- cans purchase pictures no better than their own women and men are paint ing just because they have a foreign name attached to them? Americans are slavfsh imitators and we have got to educate them into buying American paintings and it is already being done. The day of the American artist is here"
 Marriage, she said, should not in- terfere with any woman's success Why, should it?'' she parried in re- ply to a question. Does a woman have to lose her personality just be- cause she marries? No! I know many women artists who have gone right on with their success even when they married. Take MT. and Mrs. Albert Herter, for instance. Mrs. Herter Is just as successful in her painting
 
 riod. No woman need to bury her self as soon as she accepts matri- mony It is not right, nor is 1t needed nor called for. Any woman can retain her personality just as well when she is married as when she is single.
 And speaking of the poor girl in the world of art, as you suggest, no girl, nor no man either, should go in to the start of a hoped-for career in the world of art with the idea of how much can I get out of it?' It is not what the world of art can give to a girl, it Is what she can give to the world. You cannot be mercenary and be a successful artist. It is not dOne-never can be.
 Another thing it Is wrong for a p1rent to go to a teacher and say, Do you really think it is worth while for my daughter to become an artist ?' No teacher, no matter how good she or he may be, can tell. A girl may have ordinary talent and develop into the greatest feminine artist of her age. Again she may have all possible talent and never be any more than @ mediocre painter. Of course I am not referring to the perpetualIy bad sIuuenLS, put the OFulnary student should be left to go along and see what she develops. She may arrive any time, but it is usually only after as I said before. she gets near 40 years old. No, I don't mean that all women artists are over 40, of course not.
 But I do say again that art offers a girl or young girl as good a chance to succeed in life as any other profes- sion of business, and to American girls and American women the world is now and is going to evermore offer great opportunities for success and a 'name.'"

ETIQUETTE

A woman golfer must restrain her natural loquacity; she must not giggle or shrug her shoulders disdainfully at the helpless antics of a beginner or the trying bungles of a partner. She should not attempt to carry on a con versation with a partner who desires silence, and she must not attempt 10 economize in caddie charges by giving her clubs into the care of the gen. tleman who plays with her, unless he especially requests the privilege of giving her this assistance.

Women Hold Same Places
 As Men In World Of Art
Wonderful Field for American Girl, Asserts Mrs. Mottet, National President and
 Prominent Artist

-A--n artists have come into their Svn a.Sd are now ready and able to take taeir place eually with men on the pedsstals of fame in art, Mrs. Henry MotteD asserted today, when sho talked at length regarding the part femininity is taking and is to take their place equally with men on and sculpture.
 President of the National Associa- ton of Women Painters and Sculp- tors and one of tho most prominent of the women artists in the big col ony In New York and Provincetown when asked her opinion as why men were generally more successful artists than women.
 T don't believe that I win accept that-that men are more successful than women," she said, quietly, yet firmly. 'In the organization of which I am president, there are 360 women exhibiting memberS-au women who have arrived and whose paintings and works of sculpture are recogniz- ed as among the best that the world affords. Women did not begin to coIl- mence to come into prominence in life until 1870, and I believe it Is yet far too soon to even infer that wo- men, giving and taking advantages or ODDOTLullIleSs WILL not lle JNSG dt1 successful and noted as men. They arc becoming more so every day"
 Mrs. Mottet was firm in her declar- ation that no girl is too poor to "af- ford" an education as an artist if she has the talent and inclination. She was asked if she believed d girl could study and practice her art and at the same time support and cloth herself without outside aid or assistance.
 Most assuredly," said Mrs. Mot tet. Most girls until they become self-supporting or are married are supported by their families. But a girl whose family cannot afford to sup port her while she is furthering her art can easily support herself. No girl can paint all day. For support she can knit sweaters, she can do design ing in rr.vato dressN-s King establisl- ments. as many girl student artists are now doing; she can go into some sbou in the ev, n-nE. There are hHn- drcls of ways in which she ca1 sup port herself if she has the will power.
 ''No girl Is too poor to become an artist. Of course, it is a long, long road to success or to arrive as they call it. Most women, and men, too, do not arrive in the world of art until they are 40 or 45 years old, but there are, of course, exceptions to all rules.
 "Another thing that will help the girl art student of the future Is that wo are now right on the threshold of not needing Europe for an education in art. The foundations of American art are undestroyably laid and the men and the women are here in America to teach all forms of art. We are not going to need Europe for our training In the world of art in the future except to get 'atmosphere,' and even that is not necessarily need cd fin American art today.

Mothers of today are very anxious to have all the little Buddys in the world look quite as cunning as the Bettys. That's why one sees such adorable little suits everywhere, and finds mothers vieing with one other in a frantic effort to have their off, spring look most attractive. This little suit is bound to win any feminine heart that comes within it's reach.
 Get the usual romper pattern and armed with your scissors, cut out the two pieces on the bodice. Then a little jacket of contrasting material is made. This is joined to. the bloom CTS, the tab front and back fastening by a button under the wee round collar. Wouldn't he look adorable in rompers of buff linen with a little jacket of white batiste? A yellow collar and yellow cuffs, yes, and even yellow banding on the sleeves and bodice, could anything be more sun shiny? Perhaps, though you'd like another color. That is for you to de- eide, after you have chosen this model; it is such a possible little thing
