matinee.
The felt hats are dashins for
sports wear. Soft pull-on models
that adopt themselves rakishly to
the fancy are offered in all the smart
shades, such as pheasant. brown,
henna, navy, gray, purple and black.
Some models have rolled brim and
soft crushed crown, with cutout felt
and ribbon trimming on crown and
brim.
A larger model comes in felt In
the same smart shades, but Ia rolled
at the back and bound with gros-
grain ribbon. A ribbon band and
bow smartly tailored at the front Ia
the only trimming.
Velour and plush are shown In
smart shapes and seem to be es-
pecially desirable In the rolling
sailor effects. These, too, are sim.
ply banded with ribbon and DO not
require any other trimming, for
they depend on their beauty Of ma.

Virginia fairly showed me aside and
rushed to my telephone. That bit
Of rudeness would have made II
clear-if ia had any lingering

the receiver from q clattering hook,
she cried in shrill staccato:

For an instant Virginia wavered.
Then her eyes flashed and her lips

SO that II swung like q pendulum
from its long green cord. In that

she rushed across the room, opened
the door and closed 1t after her with

FOR HIGHER
IDEALS
BY w. A. McKeever-

TVERYWHERE in this country
~ there is tense anxiety as to
the moral conduct Of our chill
dren. Mass meetings of fathers
and mothers, debates, accusations.
defiant pleadings and impulsive har.
rangues. as some Of the noticeable
expressions Of a universal parental
unrest.
We must try to cure our boys
and girls Of morbid -mindedness
and through creative idealism and
its influence work for sound mental
health.
Parents must shut off the discus
sion of crime and wrong within
the family circle, and with definite
purpose substitute other topics for
fireside conversation. Thus the
child's sub-conscious mind will be
stored with moral ideas and i'm
pulses.
The public school can aid power
fully through methodical presen-
tation of ideals Of good daily con-
duct and aggressive Righteousness.
Less OF arithmetic and more of
morals is what we now must have
for the daily recitation period.
Children must be asked to recite
in turn as to concrete good deeds
being performed around them and
to better deeds to which they may
attain.
Religious teachers of the young
must drop their dogmas and alb
stractions and build up ideals OF
Individual conduct and public be-
havior. All types of schools, both
religious and secular, should at
tempt systemically to dramatize
righteousness through the medium
of play, athletics. and the social
conduct OF the young.
Pictures managers and the pec-
pie, acting together with COM
mon sense Of responsibility, must
work for films that are construo-
tive and elevating.
Little hesdway can be made
toward helping the child until
parents, and people, apply our.
selves systematically to the i'm
pressing on them high ideals.
