An argument with the older genera
tion on the subject of religion, or
morals, or love, or on anything
much, is risky business for an only
child. 1t generally leads nowhere.
and right out of a clear sky one
lands all at skies and sevens with
papa and mamma. John William
has been talking about religion-re-
ligion in the broader sense, mind
you, and it isn't at all what mamma
learned when she was girl. Mamma
has waxed fearful and is accusing
John William of not loving his par
ents any more. Papa is standing
pat on the outskirts. In another
minute John William, being tender
hearted. will begin to retract and
will lose any ground he may have
thought he had gained.

the young fellow grabbed his knife

But his father seized him by the
coat tails.

Dry Weather Care of
Flowers Means Success

when in doubt, cultivate" is an
apt and timely phrase always, at least
throughout the summer. Cultivation
means more in dry weather than it
does in wet weather or weather when
rains are frequent enough to furnish
moisture to produce wood and leaf
growth-in dry weather the growth
secured must be preserved and en-
abled to produce fruit and flower.
Cultivation permits the entrance of
moisture to the ground and breaks up
the little exhaust tubes or capillaries
of the soil, which permit the evapora-
tion of water.
Also cultivation in permitting the
entrance of water to the earth forces
thereby the root growth to follow the
water more or less downward and
prevents inclination to surface root
growth of the plant in its search for
moisture.
Where density of growth prevents
cultivation (and such cases are not
necessary, advisable or desirable), lib
eral moisture supply must be furnish
ed to prevent surface inclination of
root and consequent suffering later
when dry weather sets in. Watering
in such cases must be copious and in
no way stinted, and this holds true in
any case.
Mulches are highly protective
against droughts-lawn clippings are
good, rotted leaves are better and
long manure, rotted beyond the heat
ing stage, is probably the best mulch
procurable, especially so since it
serves a double purpose, moisture
conservation and continual food sup
ply.

McAVOY'S RETURN
TO DELAWARE.
New Coach Not Making ANY
Rash Promises but Wants
Clean Sports

William McAvoy is back at the
University Of Delaware as athletic
coach. Announcement was made of
this last week and was welcome
news for the large circle of friends
that McAvoy has in this vicinity as a
result Of his ten-year previous stay
here as coach of athletic teams at
Delaware College.
McAvoy is a graduate from Lafay-
cite, coming out of that institution in
1908. While there he was member
Of the football, baseball and basket
ball teams. He was mentioned for a
position on the All-American eleven
and after his graduation played both
professional baseball and basketball
for five years. He was connected with
the local institution ten years and left
here to join the army when the war
broke out. Following the war he
connected with Drexel Institute,
Philadelphia, where he turned out the
best teams that this school had ever
had for two years.
The new coach when interviewed to-
day said that it was too early to
make any definite announcement as to
the program that would be worked
out but that he expected to call can
didates for the football team together
for a preliminary training season in
short time.
81 am pleased to return to Old
Delaware. After my ten years connec-
ton with that institution it feels like
returning home," said Mr.. McAvoy
81 am firm believer in fair sports
and l will try to give to Delaware and
the town of Newark teams of the best
calibre who, although l cannot prom
Use will win every game, will be out
there fighting every minute of every
game" he concluded.

Comfort Chief Factor

While the brogue will continue in favor among the oxford family, never theless the style will find favor in high shoes. Comfort, of course, will be an important factor and the broad roomy lasts will furnish plenty of it.
 Naturally the English toes will find a large following, but those who pre- fer foot ease to good looks will turn to the broad, round lasts, the styles that adhere to the lines of the foot.
 As was the case last year brown will be the. favored color for fall. Russet and cordovan shades will be called upon by a great many as a com promise between the light tan and dark browns. Black, dull and gun meatl finishes will be worn by those who have never held colored foot wear in esteem.
 Button Shoe for Dress
 The once popular button shoe will be restricted to formal or semi-formal drss. Ths will b fundtainshrdlshrdl dress. These will be found in the patent leather footwear with the cloth tops. For social functions the patent leather oxfords with light hand turned soles will be worn extensively.
 Because of the increased use of OK lords spats will be worn more than ever, principally for the protection they afford, as we'll as style. The liter shades of fawn, tan. pearl and beige are favored for dress occasions, while the dark grays, browns and black for every day wear.

AMERICAN GIRLS
 WANT FASHIONS
 CREATED HERE
Famous Designers Believe U. s. Should Free Self From
 Parisian Dictation-

American girls have cultivated dis tinctive personalities, now they should have distinct style of dress.
 This is the opinion of Jane Stanford Hodges, who distinguished herself as a designer in the New York Textile High school, and has just won a scholarship at Wallcourt school, to continue her work in costume design.
 The current battle between the long and short skirt is, she believes, an- other evidence that we are freeing our selves from the satorial yoke of Paris.
 "A few years ago, women would have accepted the long skirt, just be- cause Paris ordered it. Now they don't-they are protesting, and many of them vii continue to wear the short skirt regardless of what the majority may do.
 Short Skirt U. s. Style
 This is because the short skirt is a distinctly American style, adapted to American life. It would be ridic- ulous for the American business gorl to give up such comfortable, becom- ing style, just because women in Paris have decided to wear longer garments.
 "Then length of a skirt should not be determined by style but by appro- priateness.
 For the home and for evening Wear long skirts have always been most lovely. They have a grace and sug- gestion of femininity short skirt can never give.
 When a woman has worn a prac- tical serge dress or suit al day, noth- ing rests her more than to put on long, flowing feminine-looking garment
 Color Important, Too
 Color, too, is important. I am glad to see that women are giving up the steady black diet and including a few colors in their fashion menu!"
 Miss Hodges does not give all her thoughts to costumes. She also has some very decided ideas about homes and backgrounds.
 q should like to design women's homes as we'll as their clothes" she went on. "I believe New York women are the most smartly dressed of any in the country, but California won1en know how to create the most beauti- full backgrounds fo themselves. Their homes are much more original and beautiful than those in the East.
 California women, too, have devel- oped very distinctive style, and have done wonders with the sports cos tune.
 q believe if designers were ever to make an effort to reinstate the cor seted figure American women would resist it even more than the long

Fall footwear for men, generally speaking, will be very much like the Footwear of 1921. Manufacturers ap- parently have decided that the styles of year ago have met with popular favor and there was no ocassion to make any radical changes.
 Probably the only marked change will be the increased wearing of OK lords, featuring the brogue which was brought in several years ago. The tendency, it seems, is to follow Miss Fashion, who has almost entirely dis

predict that unless spats are worn with the oxfords during indictment weather the wearers will eventually suffer for their folly.
 While woman has been going for years with uncovered ankles it ap- pears as if nature has provided better protection for her than for her SUD- posed stronger companion. For that reason chiropodists predict that men will revert to high shoes as soon as they find that they are unable to with stand the rigor3 Of the season.

 After all, women are progressing Common sense was never so much the vogue as it is today.

"Out of sight, out of mind" cannot be said of the lingerie of the present season. for while designers of these delightful garments have been pre- senting ever new and more enticing bits of underapparel for our admira- tion and delight, they have quite out done themselves this time. The things they offer are the kind that once seen are never forgotten, but finger in the mind of feminine persuasion, until they are added to her very own col lection of dainty underthings.
 Ever widening in scope of design, of fabrics used. ever trying to become more and more suitable to the outer garments worn above them, and more and more practical for various occas- ions, the undergarments seem to have reached their zenith in charm and originality.
 BIoomers Are Preferred
 There are garments for all occas- ions as has been said and there are garments to suit the tastes and purses of all women. There are those who prefer the bloomer to the petticoat, and ther ar bloomers designed to take the place of the garment that for cen turtles has been considered almost a necessary part of the feminine ward robe. These bloomers are made of silk and crepes trimmed with ruffles made of self material of lace, or geor- gette. sometimes caught here and there. on the more dressy models with bows of double faced ribbon or with tiny nosegays of French flowers
 Some of these are knee length and others extend almost to the ankle, orI as far as is consistent with the length of the skirt worn over it. Skirts are growing longer and longer so many of the winter models may be shown to the ankle itself.
 Boomers of darker materials are

most practical for street wear under the tailleur of cloth or silk.
