CATHOLIC PARENTS ARE TO BE
BLAMED.

Some weeks ago Chicago news
paper published sketches of drap-
cries in fashion at different periods
beginning with 1920, and labeled
them, "Are the present styles worse
than they were 100 years ago." The
reflection which the question cast
upon women seems to have escaped
the editor. If the argument meant
anything at all, it's force was that
in all ages women have been both
willing and anxious to dress in a
manner which offends good taste and
good morals.
To lay down general canons of
style from which there can be no
deviation is, of course, impossible
Yet it is absolutely true that no good
woman can adopt any style which, to
paraphrase a significant paragraph in
Huntington's Civilization and Gil
mate" stresses the physical sex-char-
acteristics. That this "stressing" is
the glazing sin of the modern styles,
no sober observer can deny. That it
is the cause of much immortality, as
competent social students point out,
is highly probable; that it degrades
woman is beyond question. There
was time when mothers taught
their daughters to believe that mod
esty and reserve were Indispensable
to good breeding, and that the last
thing good woman desired, or
off 80
the casual public Now, unfOrtu-
nately, there are mothers who teach
their daughters to dress for the de-
liberate purpose of attracting this
attention, and permit them to appear
in public painted and attired in a
manner which only few years ago
was restricted to women of no un-
certain reputation.
Whatever the attitude of our anti

PRINCIPLE VS.. DESIRE.

Z There is a line of demarcation
clearly drawn today, as it was drawn
in the, days Of Christ, and by Him, be-
tween the kingdom of principle and
the kingdom of desire, says the Cath
Ollie World. And desire is the ruling
power in the corrupt part of the
world in every age, as much in the
centuries of today as in Corinth or
Ephesus in the days Of st. Paul and
st. John. The forms of self-pleasing
may be more or less gross, but the
maxim of it's followers is: "Let us
eat and drink, for tomorrow we shall
die" When Our Lord used the words:
81 pray not that Thou shouldst take
them out of the world, but that Thou
shouldst keep them from evil" He
clearly indicated this government of
principle and this government CT de-
sire; and He also clearly indicated
that He would have His followers
live according to principle rather
than desire, which, often neglects the
law of God.

stems, leaving them about one inch
long. A small round paint brush
such as is used by artists, is the
proper thing to use in applying the
paste, which should be dabbed on the
end of the stem after melons are
placed in rows in their final position.
DO NOT put the stem-end paste in a
tin container.
Labelling
All melons should bear the associa-
ton label, which should be placed on
the swell of the melon in a uniform
way at the stem end. A small flat
paint brush one and one-half inches
wide should be used to spread the
paste on the melon, covering only a
slightly larger spot than the size of
the label Before the paste dries, the
label should be stuck on, using the
same brush to make the labesl adj
here by giving it two or three strokes
of the brush.
Loading for Size
Always endeavor to load two or
more cars at the same time, for the
reason that all melons will not be
the same size and 30-pound melons
should not exceed 80 pounds in
weight, neither should there be any
under % pounds. This leaves a two
pound variation each way and in sell
ing them they will be quoted accord
ingly.
Defects
Any melon which has no stem
should not be loaded in the car and
the inspector should refuse to accept
it. No melons having pointed ends,
such as bottle necks, guord-shaped or
corset-shaped should be allowed to go
into the car.
No melons which have been sun
burned or those having disfigurine
scars should be loaded. If melons are
grown on ground which has been pre-
viously planted to cotton or corn, all
stalks should be cleared from the
ground as the melons grow so fast,
usually about one pound per day, that
when lying on cotton or corn stalk,
the stalk leaves an ugly scar on the
melon which detracts from its ap-
pcarance.
