quarterly report just issued by the Interstate Commerce

says the Railway Age editorial in its current issue
This report shows that the average number OF railway

MODERN DAUGHTERS
The sFashion-PIate
BY RUTH AGNES ABELING

Her clothes,
They take your breath away.
They amaze you with their original
ity. They startle you with their
frankness.
Sometimes you get angry over
them. Sometimes you feel like
weeping over them, and at other
times you sit down and try to think
the thing out.
You don't want to destroy her am
bition to be well-groomed. Yet you
can't have your little daughter wear
ing clothes in such way that folk
who don't know her will wonder
what kind OF girl she is.
You want people to know the mo-
ment they look at her. that she is
just as sweet and nice as she is
but it's unbelievably hard to insist
that she dresses different from the
other girls.
You know what 1t means to be odd
and not quite up to the mode.
Your daughter mustn't suffer that.
And anyhow when you tell how
girls did in your day how modestly
they dressed, she laughs at youl
Frankly laughs at you-this little
daughter Of yoursl
But that's just it. You mustn't
tell her what they did when you
we're a girl. You mustn't try to
change her by exalting a past period.
She regards that as old-fashioned
and the last thing in the world

York and in 1000 throughout the
country. Jewish worshippers attend
ing today the services which usher
in the year 56s2 Of the Jewish cal
endar. will hear a message from the
Holy Land, delivered by speakers
representing the "Keren HayesOd, -
or Palestine Foundation Fund. the
object of which is to raise 500. .0OO,-
600 In five years to promote the re-
establishment OF the Jewish National
Home in Palestine.
The prayerful yearnings Of sixty
Jewish generations for the return Of
the children Of Israel to their soil
and the rebuilding Of the waste
places in the Holy Land will he re-
echoed on this occasion. The wor-
shippers will be transported from
the realm OF realities and the hard
facts Of everyday life to the Prom
ised Lans for which their souls nave
yearned since their exile. To give
concretei expression to their longing
which fill their prayers, the Jews will,
on the threshold OF the new year, be
given an opportunity to translate
their wishes into acts. They will be
asked to contribute literally to the
Palestine Foundation Fund, the ma
tional fund aiming at the gradual re-
building Of the Jewish Homeland.
The plan of the "Keren Hayesod"
is one Of great scope. II seeks to
supplement the work undertaken by
the Palestine Administration, which
governs the country on behalf OF the
British government as the manda-
tory for Palestine. While the Pales-
tine Administrations activities are
intended to benefit the entire popu-
lation Of 100000 Jews, Christians
and Arabs, the Zionist Organization,
which is to administer the Palestine
Foundation Fund on behalf of the
Jewish people, also contemplates its

There are several gratifying fea-

One Of the projects contemplated
by the "Keren Hayesod" is the irri-
cation Of the Jordan Valley and the
harnessing OF the Jordan waters for
electrical power. It is intended to
rebuild some OF the oldest highways
in history. The zionists also propose
to reclaim the waste lands Of Pales-
tine by planting eucalyptus trees on
the sand dunes. AS more land be-
comes available. and as the settle
ment upon the land becomes closer,
II is estimated that Palestine VIII be
able to house a population OF four to
five million instead of the present
population OF less than a million.
Jews all over central and eastern
Europe and certain parts of Asia are
anxiously awaiting the opportunity
OF escaping from the oppression and
persecution of their countries and
find a haven OF refuge in the
Promise Land. In the course OF the
last year, 5000 young Jews were
adaaitted into the country and are
employed on the roads, railways and
farms.
Preparations are being mace for
a great campaign all over the coun-

Zionist leaders from abroad, headed
by Nahum Sokolow, chairman OF the
Executive Committee OF the World
Zionist Organization, is due here
