POINTS FOR SEWING CLUBS.
Appropriate Clothes.


Every girl wants to look well and
nicely dressed, and every girl should.
To be we'll dressed, ones clothes
should be suitable to the occasion
when worn Here are few sugges-
tons for a we'll dressed girl.
How to Look Attractive
4 Cleanliness above all things in ev-
cry garment worn. The skin, hair,
and nails always clean.
School clothes should be of wash
material, simply made.
Wear pretty apron when at work.
You look more attractive.
The church or street dress should
also be simple in style and good col
or combinations.
The flufiness and brightness can be
used in the best dress, but even here,
be careful not to have fussy, snowy
dress.
How to Get Good Results in Clothes.
Study your own figure, your color
ing and shape of your face.
Short, stout people should not wear
trimmings running around the waist
or skirt, no broad stripes, no large
plaids. Long lines are good.
Large people should not wear
bright red or blue, but dulled blue or
green.
Large people should make white
dresses in one piece, as shirt waist
and skirt make them look much larg-
err.
Blue eyes seem more blue with a
blue necktie, or sash to match the
eyes, or of darker shade of blue.
With & auburn hair, wear gray
greens. Blue makes the hair more
red.
With yellow hair wear gray or VIC
let. Bright violet makes it look more
golden.
Thin people should not wear stripes
running up and down. Trimmings at
sleeves and on sides of skirt makes
them look larger.

The Russian Situation.

Certainly the communists inherited dis

1t would be easier to shed the plying tear
for those distressed soviet high officials were
it not for the facts of the case. The Russia
which exists today is not the Russia which
they inherited. 1t is the Russia which they
stole and destroyed. Until Lenine and his as
sociates, in collision with the former German
government, threw Russia into bolshevism to
get her out of the war, Russia was working
her way painfully but decently to representa-
tive government after bloodless revolution.
The first act of the bolshevist mercenaries
was to steal the property and menace the lives
OF the very class whose absence they now de-
plore- They robbed them. cast them into pris-

country-anything to get rid of them. At no
time could any of those who were left alive
have ventured back into Russia with any safe

who had destroyed them and their nation. For
Lenine and his associates to deplore their alb
sence is a bit of specious effrontery which
should deceive nobody.

Victory for the Dollar.

Italy has paid the United States a hand
some compliment by substituting our gold dol
lar for the pound sterling as the standard unon
which the gold Ira is to be based henceforth
OF course this country no longer mints the
gold dollar. but. it is our standard of value
and recognition of it cannot but be gratifying
to national pride.
The reason for the change is a sound one
The United States is now Italy's largest credf-
tor and. for the time at least, New York is the
principal gold market of the world The shift
OF standards will have no effect upon inter
national exchanges for the adoption of the
dollar standard means only the changing Of
the basis for the circulation OF customs nav
able in gold. While our dollar maintains its
par, as Of course it always will. it will serve
admirably, if only on account of the convenient
decimal system followed in our coinage.
1t would. of course, be pleasant to beIieva
that this Italian change indicated American
dominance In the whole field OF foreign trade
and International finance. That time NAV Gonna

The Tired Business Man.

A chronicaIly tired business man is an
anomaly. There amt no such animal. Nobody
believes in him man who is tired from
what he is pleased to call overwork, who gets
up tired and goes to bed tired and does all
his living in a tired way, is entitled to call
himself by as many names as he pleases, but
he mustn't call himself a business man-not
unless he wants to be the object of miles, like
any other incongruity. 1t may not be just
but it's so. Moreover, it is perfectly just in
a vast majority of cases.
Ninety per cent of the business men who
deceive themselves into the notion that they
are tired because they overwork are tired be-
cause they don't take care of themselves be-
cause they are too lazy and indolent to do IT,
In other words, many a so-called business man
allows himself to be a chronically tired out
wardy respectable hobo in white collar He

a way of telling the fat boy if he will eat less.
take some exercise, shake his liver and act
like normal boy he Will yawn less EVERY
body with good sense knows that work. other
things being equal, is a remedy for most of
our ills, and not the cause of them. II can
become otherwise only by a perversion Of
thought.

School Athletics.

Every university and college circular that
one receives nowadays emphasizes what is at
tached TO athletics until is almost forced
to believe that athletics have come to be the
principal study at these institutions. 1t is the
football. baseball. basketball and track teams
that one reads about. and the director and the
coach and the held and the stadium and all that
play large part in the news of the day. One
of the sensible things done at the state uni
Verslty Is the framing Of program in which
provision Is made for the physical training
through athletic exercises or all the students
so that the program is not merely for the IA
eored ones who may have a penchant for the
sports. The same idea should be Incorporated
in the curriculum of all the schools. Usually
The mass of students content themselves with
sitting on the bleachers or ranging themselves
along the sideiines simply as spectators. and
are not participants Of athletics and do not
get the advantage Of the training.
1t is no doubt the determination of the local
school authorities TO give all the students OF
the high school physical training. 1t may be-
the means of building up many boys and girls
needing such stimulating exercise. But be-
yond the athletics is the main purpose of the
school, and that is education, and the most
possible should he made out Of this. Perhaps
behind the smoke screen kicked out by the ath-
letics we would see that the vast majority of
the students are indeed applying themselves
to their books and are making the acquiring of
an education their main business. The gIorr of
school IS the character and the culture uro-
cured and the spirit of service that it instiIIs
into the students. Athletics are desirable. Int
they should not be permitted to obscure the
real purpose of the schools.
