Dorothy Dix Talks
BY DOROTHY DIX
WORLDS Highest Paid Woman Writer.
Ten Commandments for the SummeT
Girl,

Ten Commandments for the Summer
Girl.
First: When you pack your trunk
for your summer outing tuck therein
amongst your chiffons and your frills
the mantle of gracious manners, the
stays of discretion, the cloak of mod
esty, the jewels of cheerfulness. and
the ornament of a sweet and gentle
spirit.
So shall you keep the spot light of
public attention conferred upon you,
for there be many girls who are rest
full to the eyes, and many more who
are not sports, and not a few who are
stock artists, but il these days a girl
who is a real lady and considerate of
other people is museum piece, con-
corning whom every one makes in
quiries. We are all interested in
rarities.
Second: Dress well, but not too
well. Fine feathers make fine birds,
land a woman's clothes are the frame
that sets off her beauty. True, but
don't make the mistake of having the
frame so expensive looking that it ap-
pears prohibitive to the average mas
culine beholder. Also avoid giving
the impression that you have spent
all the brains you have on picking out
the frame.
Many girl does herself out of a
good husband by being overdressed
NoA1C 1OOhS Inc d Odlly 11lAl 1IOIn
So, after observing the number and va
riety of her toilettes- a man does
little figuring and comes to the con-
clusion that his salary would just
about keep her in fancy shoes, and he
doesn't relish the prospect of spend
ing his life toiling to enrich milliners
and dressmakers. so he drops out of the
running, and leaves some poor simp
to qualify for the office of her bill
payer
The man who likes to be seen about
with girl whose glad raiment makes
every one rubber. is seldom the marry
ing man. He who is looking for a
wife picks out some little bundle of
dry goods that isn't put up in such a
fancy package and hasn't an imported
label upon it.
Third: Watch your step. Par
ticularly in the good old summer time.
which melts down our morals and our
morale even as it does your collars and
when we go tneglEee in both clothes
and conduct. Heaven knows why, but
we do things in August that we would
be utterly incapable of doing IN De-
cember.
OF course summer is the silly sea-
son, but reflect that a woman's Sill
ness is her undoing more often than
her sins are. It's folly instead of the
devil that leads girls into doing things
they spend the balance of their lives
repenting. Therefore watch out for an
attack of midsummer madness. and
when you find yourself listening TO
some married man telling You how
lonesome he is while his wife's away
and how it would cheer him for you
to take a little excursion with him or
spend evenings with at some road
house. take a look at the calendar. and
see how shoTf a time summer really
lasts. and what a brief part of life a
couple of weeks are, even If they are
full of fun.

BY the tariff, it was urged, the cost
of paper to newspapers and maya

it would mean the curtailment or sus-

It is urged also that putting a tariff

Congressman Fordney announces
that his tariff bill is designed to shut
out ,importations of foreign goods
This is an honest confession. Such a
tariff would enable American produc-
ers to charge whatever prices they
might choose to fix. Also, it would
enable them to buy raw materials at
their own price because it would put
an end to export business. Foreign
nations could not buy unless they
could pay in goods. They have no
money. 1t is not remarkable, there
fore, that the house has shown some
anxiety to rid itself of such a bill as
quickly as possible and shunt it over
to the senate. 1t may be that the
senators have longer memories than
have the representatives. In case they
have they will recall the results of
past tariff legislation and what they
will do to the Fordney bill will be
a plenty.

DEBT-PAYING TIME.

If Secretary Mellon will hurry up
theNcolIection of the money due I'm
Gle sam from the allies, the amount
so received might exert a considerable
influence on the form which the new
revenue bill will take.
Albert J. Beveridge, in recent
speech, showed that for the fiscal year
euding March 81, 1921, Great Britain
had expended S3,00D, 100000 on army
and navy enlargement and mainte-
nance It had also lent s50,0OO,0O0 70
Argentina for trade purposes and had
reduced it's own debt 1000, 100000.
Yet it has not since April, 1919, paid
a cents interest on the money loaned
it by the United States.
The accumulated interest on the to-
tai loans to the allies amounts 20
$1,5O0.O0O,O0O, or one-third our total
fed n revenue. The current charge
is $500, 100000 a year. All of this.
current and accrued interest, must be
borne by American taxpayers, for all
the money was borrowed from Ameri-
can citizens, thru sale of bonds, on
which interest must be paid.
When the foreign loans were made,
Secretary McAdoo publicly assured
bond buyers that European bonds run
ming for the same time as our bonds
and bearing enough increase of rate
to pay for the actual handing, would
be issued.
Mr.. Beveridge showed that Great
Britain's loans-the proceeds Of
which were largely spent in purchases
of British goods at inflated prices
were intended as a subsidy to the
smaller countries. r. Trouton ex-
blamed in the Economic Journal of
March, 1924, the question was wheth-
er it would not be better to make ad-
vances in form of loans instead OF out
right gifts, and they found the grant
ing o. loans preferable to direct sub
sides as tending to secure economy"
But they did not, according to this
writer, really expect repayment.
The waste of France for military
expenditures is an argument against
our letting the loans run indefinitely
without payment of interest. Mr.
Beveridge also showed the great CO.
lonial empire gained by France and
the exclusive control of it's markets

President Harding in expressing his
Views on the soldier bonus bill to the
senate presented an array of facts to
show what the government is doing
and will do to discharge its debt to
the soldiers. In the matter of voca-
tional training alone, congress has
appropriated $4,000, 600 for the cur
rent fiscal year, but President Hard
ing asserts that in the next twelve
months there will be $4,000 disabled
men accepted for training, the cost
OF which will be more than $163.000,
600. The additional sum he will ask
of congress, and there is little doubt
that it will be granted. AS the avail
ability for training increases, 1t is es-
timated that an annual expenditure
Of $46S, 900 will be made neces-
sary. About $1,000, 600, 900 was ap.
propriated by the Republican con-
gress for 1920-21 for disabled men.
The annual expenditure for this pur-
pose alone it will be seen. therefore, is
much greater than the pension bill
ever paid in any one year to the sur
vivors Of the Civil war.
