Warmly Defends the
Washington Girl.
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:

DbAn EnlSS FAINT A<Ns
The letter published in The Times
from the young man who signed
"F. "" interested me very much.
He expected to see a great deal on
coming to Washington, but now
seems rather disappointed, espe-
eially in Washington girls. As ho
puts Il, "rhey lack tho poise, the
sense OF social harmony, the insight
Of the cultured women OF the con-
tinent"
], too. like many other readers OF
your column, have not lived In
Washington all my NE. I was born
In Philadelphia. even think that
II Is safe 60 say that over half OF
the population IN Washington have
come from the different Stat<I, but
now claim their home in Washing
ton. the same as do. III that is the
case, why Is Il that tho Washington
girls are 90 different from the
"women Of the continentT'
have travelled a great deal In the
Eastern part OF the country, and
have met many people, most OF
whom have been girls, but Il never
has entered my head (bccause l see
no difference) that the Washington
girls are "thick." compared TO other
girls In the country.

Filipino Presents Views on Inde-
pendence of Islands.
To tho Editor Of THE TIMES: (:


Permit me to express my anprecla-
tion of the "sportsmanship" OF the
American people, and particularly of
the students OF the Georgetown Uni
versity Law School in having permit
ted the undersigned, a Filipino, to
present the Philippine issue today
from the Filipino viewpoint The oc-
casion was a debate in the law school
of the said university, in which the
subject was Resolved, That the Phil
ippines Be Retained" The Affirmative
speakers won the debate. But there
wero so many inaccuracies stated
about the nttainments and ability of
the Filipino people that no Filipino
could resist the temptation OF reply
ing at the instant. Therefore, i ask ed
the unanimous consent OF the people
present to be allowed to speak from
fifteen to twenty minutes, ana amid
acclamatlons and cheers I was allow
cd TO take the platform. which was
surely an instance OF tho desire ito
give the other fellow a square deal"
The inaccuracies above mentioned
were due to n Misunderstanding OF
Just what Is the exact issue between
America and the Philippines today.
! The issue IL no longer whether or not
| the Filipinas are q homogeneous peo-
pie: It Is no longer whether or not
they are able to govern themselves
All these questions have been settled
in the affirmative.
! Thus IL was that In the Jones law
of August 20, 1915, the Congress OF
the United states prescribed only one
condition precedent 10 the granting
OF Philippine independence: namely,
that as soon as a stable government
was established by the Filipinos, inde-
lpcndence would be granted them. The
Filipinos submit that such stable
government exists today. Americas
official representatives In the Philip
pines testify TO It's existence. In
short. the Filipinos have complied
with their part of the constitutional
compact between them and the Amer
| ican people. IL IL not time, therefore,
that America should fulnll her pledge,
now that the war is over and now
that America ip recognised as the
champion OF the doctrine OF self-de-
termination as woli ms OF that might
Ter and nobler doctrine, that the world
must be made n decent place to live
! in, not for csars, kings and kinplets,
nor for tho puppets OF imperlalistio
4 dynasties, but for that array OF ma
tIons which. though weak by destiny.
surely have tho birthripht to thrive
under Gods Heaven unhindered and
unsfrald. -

staggered" Daylight Saving
Would Make Much Trouble
By BILL PRICE .

Employees in of the Government departments have
been democracy is getting fashionable nowon the
question of obtaining the effect of daylight saving law by
going to work at o'clock in the morning and quitting at $3.50
in the afternoon The results of these votes have not been
made pubic, but staggered daylight saving schemes all
Washington would result in confusion throughout the
city.
In the absence of any law by Congress applying day
light saving to the District not possible to obtain uni
fomity in turning clocks back hour except through
cooperation of all interests governmental and private.
The District Commissioners, on recommendation OF
local daylight saving committee submitted to the President
request that he consider issuing executive order chang
ing working hours in Washington The understanding is
that President submitted the question to the Attorney
General
The start of any voluntary movement for changing the
clocks would from the President his Cabinet
acting the executive branch of the and other
interests would have to follow suit, if possible.
Officials of the Federal Government are going slow in
to the President while they watch the out
come of the New York law for daylight saving The repeal
of this almost accomplished in the State Legislature
owing disconcerng problems arising from differences OF
time on the railroads. neighborng States, Cities etc.
If we deceive the clocks ourselves it will be much bet
ter to do it as whole community possible and that would
appear to be pretty difficult job under the circumstances
without uniformity the town will be upside down. Business
concerns and households would be enmeshed IN pepees

tellectual girl has the time Of his
life with Little Cutie" who
doesn't need to know anything
more than to look up into his eyes
and surround him with q nimbus
of flattery and adoring attention.
More than that, the same man
likes different. types of girls at
different times in his life. Never,
almost never AZ least, does he
marry the sort he claims to like
best Just the other day q young
chap who had always admired the
sort that decorate the front row
of the chorus turned up with a
bride who was just an old-fash-
ioned freckle-faced girl, with
about as much "jazz" in her make
up as an old-fashioned hand
organ.
Lady, lady, there isn't any rule
or rhyme or reason for the at
traction between the sexes.
Spring, a moonlight night, a
chance meeting, swishy dress
these are the things that decide
the fate Of most men. They'll
argue by the hour about not
liking this sort of q girl and about
detesting that sort and then some
youngster with a short upper lip
shows up and they can't get the
marriage license fast enough.
l know more men who swore
they could love only a blond who
have married brunettss and vice
versa.
I suppose it's best expressed BY
an illustration. I once knew a girl
who was most attractive. but her
chief charm was her animation
and vivacity. She was the despair
of photographers until one finally
solved the situation. "The only
good picture Of her must be a
moving picture" he declared. The
only girl who would absolutely
suit most men would have to be
like the moving picture--ever
changing girl Of a thousand

70 .ae Editor OF THE TIMES

To the Editor OF THE TIMES;
At different times suggestions have
been made for a simplified calendar.
1t is usually proposed that calendar
be adopted having thirteen months OF
twenty -eight days each with a New
Year day to fill out the 305-day cycle,
and that the calendar be padded with
d ieap-yeAr day as required. One
Meighty objection to any such change
is that Il would cause confusion and
schism in religious circles. Ii is like
lly unconstitutional as 1t would in
terfere with religion. IL the Sab
bath can be arbitrarily pushed along
n day at intervals by Congress, every
man can do the same thing for him
self. Soon there would be no Sabbath
observance at all. Any idea OF put
ting eight days in one week or Of
postponing Sunday until Monday must
be abandoned once and for all time.
However, the problem can be ap-
preached in another way. Instead Of
padding some week with an extra day,
why not drop one day or the year1
None OF the articles Rave read about
simplified calendars suggested drop
ping a day OF the year. But this idea
contains possibilities. A 384.day-year
IS exactly divisible by seven, making
fifty-two weeks, or course, 364 days
is a little short measure, but what is
the difference provided week is
thrown in occasionally to make up
the deficiency?
Here are a few sur gcstions for n
calendar embodying the above IDEAS:
Let each month contain twenty-eiEht
days. except January. April, July,
and October, which are TO have thirty
five days each. Add a loap-year week
TO December every fifth year. except
years exactly divisible by 400, every
fortieth year during the first 300
-ears thereafter and every fiftieth
year during the second 200 years
thereafter. Thus the years 1850, 2000,
20tO, 2oso. 2I2o. 21e0, 22oo. 225o, 23oo,
22so, etc, would not be leap years.
\ twelve-month calendar is prefer.
able to ono OF thirteen months be.
cause of historical considerations,
and because twelve-month year In
more easily divided into four seasons.
All anniversaries would be figured
from the beginning OF the year. II a
date fell on the 1soth day OF the year
according to the old calendar IL would
fall on the 1S0th day according to
the new. Sunday, January I, 1922.
would be the time TO adopt the cal
,ndar
Some scrupuiousiy exact people will
say that TO observe anniversaries one
must know how this calendar differs
each year from the old calendar on
New Year Day. But that In . minor
objection ~ the difference 10 only a
few days. In the long run there IL
no difference At all because 900 years
ny the new calendar is exactly equal
10 900 years figured by the old one.
.Aiost people will be satisfied to call .

DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:


Here is Q question that I would
like to put before your readers for
their opinion. As I am a creature
OF moods. a sort OF actress I am
anxious to know, and after getting
the concensus of opinion, I will be
ready to act accordingly. as am in
search OF a husband, and want 20
know the quickest way to find him.
or, rather, catch him. Well, here
is the question, in all its glory:
"What Is the type OF girl that the
majority OF boys admire most" In
case you are unfamiliar with the
many types. here are somo of them:
The baby vamp, the real" vamp,
the "good pal" the stsy.at-home
girl, the athletic sort OF girl, the
swell dresser (you see her around
Thirteenth and i ut o'clock), the
witty girl, the "cold," don't-touch-
me kind, the jazz baby, tho social
butterfly, the "hard-boiled" Jane,
the motherly sort of girl, and the
walking fashion plate. or course,
there are loads more types, but I
think these cover the types of most
girls.
Please have this printed as soon
as possible, Miss Fairfax, for I am
dying TO know the opinions OF boys
in regard to their idea of q model
girl-their dream girf'--as they
call her. I await your reply with
all the impatience of wild youth.

- your letters, and you give
such good advice I want your help.
One night while with . boy I ad-
mired very much . date was made
for q party about q week before
hand, The day before the party
heard he had date with another
girl. The next day another boy
came to me and asked IL was in
vitcd to the party, and told him
of my misfortune. Then this boy
offered to take rne. We went to the
party, and when we got there the
other boy was standing in the hall.
He spoke, but I did not, and have
not spoken to him since. Please
tell me IL I should speak TO this
young man. BIG BLUE EYES.
It always seems very foolish for
grown persons TO stop speaking
when they meet 1t is much easier
and less embarrassing to nod or
say "Good day" It occurs to me
that YOU may have misunderstood
this first boys invitation or that
he may have been joking or
thought you were joking. Other
wise Il would be hard to under
stand--such q deliberate attempt
to offend you. After all, it isn't
matter of serious Importance since
you went to the party and prob
ably had a good time. IL | were
YOU I would .act naturally and
simply toward him and not give
him the satisfaction Of seeing that
you are offended.
