Read Your Character
Bp Dioby Phillips
The PerCeiyers

Inc PerCeiyers
In previous articles the general
significance Of the forehead which
slants backward and the bulgng brow
has been discussed. Now comes n more
careful observation Of forehead shapes.
Traits of character really may be
divided into three classes those which
are mere expressions Of il, those that
are inherited with tho character and
therefore betray it. and those which are
truly physiologically connected with it.
Head shapes arc typical Of the latter
class.
In general the forehead which slants
backward denotes Quickness OF thought
and perception. as opposed to slowncsS,
depth and concentration Of thought.
This has been pointed out before.
But the reason lies in this: that tile
faculties Of perception in the brain are
located just over the eyes, in what the
character analyst calls the first floor
OF the brain. 1t is the excess dcvelop-
ment of this "irst floor" Of the brain
over the second and third "foors'' that
gives the slanting forehead its slanting
shape.
Persons with such development are
the "perccivCrs." They are the quick
observers. hunting always for facts, not
theories. whose mental reactions to their
observations are as rapid as the obser-
vations themselves. They are, therefore
people with very practical turn OF
mind, doors rather than thcorizcrs, ac
cOmpliSherS Of the work that lies before
them rather than the solvers of deer
problems They are dynamic rather
than analytical.

TT WAS while she was in school that
i pnnlInn hnl hor Grrt disillnsinn.

TT WAS while she was i'll school that
i Pauline had her first disillusion. J
She was very young and very prim'
and she had deep and devastating
crush on one of the older girls in school,
This girl was perfection she had
pretty hair, she was fairly good
scholar, she was n good athlete, and
she was nice to the ''little kids"
And SO Pauline suffered agony when
he frowned and suffered ecstasy when
she smiled.
II was a hard day for the family at
home when the older girl asked Pauline
how she liked school or told her that
she liked her dress!
But then the horrid blow fell.
The,idol appeared Mt school one day
proudly wearing boys raincoat.
He had left il at her house. and 1t
smelled of the cigarettes which lay in
the pocket; she had stopped to the
depths of putting It on, wearing it to
school, announcing whose it was,
strutting around in it.
1t was almost too much TO bear Pau
lines spirit and heart were broken and
shattered
Her idol had clay feSt-and such
clay!
! CHE had made the mistake Of putting
~ mere girl on a high pedestal, and
expecting her to stay there.
And she has been doing it ever since
She idealizes all her friends.
They are endowed with heroic quail
ties and finenesSes Of character that
they do not even aspire to.
And invariably they fall short. sooner
or later, Of the glory which is expected
of them. Human beings can do no more
they should not be expected to.
You cant get along in this world II
you are going to make everybody ant
everything in it finer that it is ol
can be.
Tairyland doesn't stay with you after
you grow up. although you may con-
tinue a speaking acquaintance with
fairies which enables you to talk to
things that can't talk. and sec little
elves and things that other people can't
see.
But in the practical world Of things
that are, your fairy dust doesn't dc
you any good.
No matter how much you spread il
about, the cold hard fact remains that
people are only human with human
limitations. human weaknesses anc
| human pettiness.
| DUT what Of it?
- There's no cause to be discouraged
or miserable over it.
1t has been going on for some nine
! teen hundred years or more, TO sa!
nothing of those few little centuries
about which history is scanty and brief
1t would be lovely if we could all b.
as fine as Pauline would like her friends
t6 -be-but if We were, there would b,
nothing to strive for, no higher plane t.
reach.
And until Pauline realizes this bite
but sensible truth and brings her i'm
agination aud her ideal down to earth
she will have pretty unhappy time.

URGES BAR ON
IMMIGRATION
Seventh District Club Fedora
tiOn Takes Stand at Meet
ing Here.

Following a talk by DR.. Virgil Rorer
on Immigration" the Seventh District
Federation Of Woman's Clubs, at its
meeting today in the Odd Fellow build
ing, passed the following resolution:
Resolved, That the Seventh District
Of Indiana Federation OF Clubs, stands
for standards of immigration which are
concerned with the future citizenship Of
the republic, and further that the fedora
ton stands for a new law fixing the num-
bers of immigrants to be admitted for
year, accepting only those essential to
our well being and that judicious meth
DDS be adopted to assimilste and incor-
porate the alien into the life of the
Nation.
Resolved, That tho federation deeply
deplores the publication of 800 foreign
language papers in the United States and
urges legislation looking into the publi-
catino of such papers,
The committee drawing up the resolu-
tions included Mrs. Felix T. McWhirter,.
Mrs. Henry W. Beck, Mrs. Winfield Scott
Johnson Mrs. Julia Henderson and Mrs.
II. B. Burnett.
DR.. Rorer who has lately come to the
city from Philadelphia, congratulated
the women upon their city's foreign pop
ulation record indianapolis ranking as
the most typical American city, having
only a 4 per cent foreign population. He
deplored the fact that foreigners are al
lowed to become Americans without be-
ing able to read or speak the English
language, that foreign language papers
are allowed in circulation, and that there
are 11,500,O00 adults in the United States
who can neither read nor write. He
advocated most forcibly a new immigra
tion law, mentioning five outstanding
points: Acceptance Of only those essen
tioi to the we'll being of the country
making scientif selection; limiting num-
Der for year: keeping foreigners from To-
eating In slumsy locating them where
needed. and wise plans for Americana
ing them.
At the close Of the program a business
meeting was conducted by Mrs. John
Downing Johnson committee includ-
ing Mrs. Harry Chapman, Mrs. J. f. Ed
wards and Mrs Melville Moon was ay-
pointed TO look after a memorial tree
planting for the federation, and Mrs. c.
T. Austin Mrs David Lurvey. Mrs. b. s
Gadd, Mrs. NJ. McCaslin and Mrs Claudia
Erther. we're named as the committee for
place and plan Of the district convention
to be held May 20.
Mrs. W. II. Fugate was named chair
man of the art committee to take the
place of Mrs. r. NJ Stoddard. and Mrs.
w. II Denny chairman Of the home eco
Monies and rural life committee. II also
was recommended that the office Of cor
responding secretary and two vice presi-
dents he created.
