The Psychology of Dress.
OF course, it does seem TO me bat
there is but one person TO adore on
the problem of dress and couduc. as
it is being practiced by so many Of
the flapper class. She is the mother
of the girl.
The mother is the one to blame.
She knows human nature. She auows
what men say about girls who are
immodest In their manner and i'm
modest in their dress. She knows the
danger to the girl of going about with
perhaps single garment under her
dress, her stockings rolled and her
skirt so short as to expose her knees.
She knows the girls responsibility in
the matter of dress where another
mothers son is involved.
If she doesn't know il, all she has
to do * to call in her son and ask him
what he thinks of his sisters scant
attire. a brothers frankness anolt
his sisters conduct is evidence
enough; there are decent instincts in
the male breast that writhe against
the woman he loves subjecting her
self to criticism.
ModcSty Must BE Taught Early.
OF course. the mother doesn't need
to wait until her daughter has reach
ed her teens or her early twenties to
talk modesty of dress and conduct TO
her girl If she begins 1t in her ear
| ydays she will not find her daughter
ever the butt of a coarse joke or an
Insulting remark. You can ingram
modesty in a child so that II will new
er be forgotten. But mother can
not do it by preaching alone. She has
to practice it herself In the topsy-
turvy turning of today's events II IS
not an infrequent occurrence to find
a daughter trying to lead motheS
back to the straight and narrow path
OF dress and conduct.
The pendulum will swing back one
OF these days and all will be serene
and nice along the broad Highways
but in the meantime a lot of youuS
girls who mistake the smart and bold
Tor the smart and nice are going 10
lose out in beauty comparisons, lose
out getting nice young men TO lea0
them to affairs, and, much to Their
chagrin. they are going 10 discover
the girls they thought back numbers
and old-fashioned are going to 30

HARDING ASKS LAWS
FOR AGRICULTURE AND
FUNDING RAILROADS

Washington. July 26.-President
Harding sent a special message to
congress today asking legislation au
thorizing the war finance corpora
ton to handle funding Of railroad in.
debtedness and to INCREASE credit for
financing agricultural exports Prompt
action was requested but the presi
dent did not ask that both features
be confined to one bill
Republican leaders therefore adopt
ed the plan of dealing with the rail-
road and agricultural questions in
separate measures. Sen. Kellogg in
troduced a bill drafted by Secretary
of Commerce Hoover and Chairman
Meyer of the war finance corporation
extending the powers of the war f.
nance corporation to agricultural eX
port financing, and increasing the cor
poration's revolving credit fund from
$5O0,000000 to $1,OOO,OOO,OOO. The
Kellogg bill was offered as a substi
tute for the pending Norris bill to
create a new government export e.
nancing corporation with 100000,
600 capital.
Provisions dealing with railroad
funding were stricken from the Hoo
YER Meyer draft before it was pre-
sented, and republican leaders plan
ned to consider later, and separately
the presidents recommendations that
the war finance corporation take over
railroad funding.
The president asked congress to
extend the authority of the war fl.
nance corporation to purchase securi-
ties probably up to $500,000,000 now
in the hands of the railroad corpora
tons. This, the president said, would
lead to early adjustment and relief
of the railroads.
