rails are to be had and are not cschcwed
by women of taste. Sometimes the
touch Of white is secured by wearing a
wrist watch on white ribbon. and I
am told that they are wearing bracelets
made Of hair dyed white.
But not alone does the Frcnchwoman
wear bracelets as a foil to her black
gloves. She wears them instead Of
gloves and women here who have taken
up the fad Of going glovclcSS are show
ing an increasing interest in these arm
ornaments. Moreover. for evening wear
the extremely long glove is virtually
out of the question on account of its
high price, and the space between the
end of the medium length glove and the
beginning of the very short sleeve is n
convenient place TO display quite an
assortment Of bracelets. There seems to
be no prejudice against wearing many
at time.
a few women recently returned from
France are following the French. fad
for mousquetaire gloves and with them
they wear their bracelets in the many

How Get Rid Of Him7

Dear Cynthia---T am a young girl past
eighteen, but look sixteen, Now there
Ia young man twenty-five past. This
young man calls me on the telephone
three and four times week. As I do
not care for said young man, what shall
7 have my parents say to him when he
call me up, as I do not like to talk to
him? 1,
one day mother told him that was
not at home and he came to the house
and saw me going out with another
young man. Was II right for him to
was not at home? EDNA G. ii. \
He seems rather an aggressive young
man. Have your family answer: I'm
sorry. she can't talk over the telephone
Just now" Make the same reply II you
happen to answer the telephone your
self, and never give in and talk. Simply
hang UP after making the answer.

Tho College Girl Protests

Dear Cynthia--we two girls are now
sophomores at two of the leading
women's colleges of the country, and
although the general thought today IS
for the higher education of women ana
although some Of us now have the vote,
why Is II that the college girl Is so
looked down upon by the young man
OF today? 1t is always she who Is
wall flower at dances and sits home
alone In the evenings, while the light
and thoughtless girl has a good time
and is very popular with the supposedly
incest boys. Later In life which girl is
apt TO be of the greatest benefit to her
family and to the world? Well. then,
what's the matter with us now? we
challenge you. young men. through the
kindness Of Cynthia's column to an
swer u.s. 20. .' ''
ON THE ROAD TO AN A. B.
Perhaps the young man does not like
the idea that you know as much as ne
does. A clever woman does not let
man realize that she knows as much as
he and never that she- knows more.
And, unfortunately. great many
women who go In for higher education
insist on letting every one know It, II
not in words, In manner and altitude at
least Do a bit of self-examination and
see where the fault lies.

Earth s Crust at

Jared by Quake

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1G.-Some-
where. perhaps leagues deep be-
meath the rolling blue OF the Allan
tic and forever hidden from the
eyes of man. the earth's crust was
torn and twisted Thursday by a ii
tanic convulsion.
For hours the earth's surface
shuddered under the feet of its
needless millions. Force waves
thousands OF miles in length swept
outward from that storm center like
ripples on a rock broken pool. Yet
only the unsleeping seismographs
noted it and inscribed a mute rec
ord for watchful scientists. who
guard them.
First word of tho disturbance
came from Georgetown Universi, "
here When the Rev. Father Fran
els A TondOrf, director Of the seis-
magraphic observatory. peered at
his delicate mechanism Thursday
morning. they told him of a shock
more severe than any recorded in
the last two years. Somewhere the
power beneath the surface was still
bulging at the earth crust holding
IL in check.
