ing this epoch unless that feature 10
incorporated. Young and old have
found it's advantage. Acting on
their mistakes, the milliners have
added to this new version Of the
Russian turban slight brim. which
is an eIongation OF the crown. Tho
body Of the hat is a negligible thing,
somewhat like a small beehive or q
soldiers tin helmet. It's glory lies in
a thickly wrapped roll Of metallic
tissue or oriental brocade that rises
from nape of neck, passes over the
ears and rises high in front.
This shape was the flrst and FORE
most rival Of the universal cloche in
Paris last September 1t bids fair to
continue it's destructive work over
here. Smart women who wear new
things render a favorable verdict for
1t. 1t is often fashioned in cloth Of
gold with a roll In Chinese blue and
gold, or silver and ashes OF rose bro
cade. II one is not averse to orna-
mentation on a hat, a colorful pin
or pointed ornament Is added. It Is
hard to make women see the advan-
tages Of decoration, however. They
grow moro opposed to IL in their
costumery each month. Maybe we
are going to standardize the cos
tune cut to the bone. We may at
last go down into history as having
4 certain type of dress which be-
longs to us.

from the other millions that exist,
and she also will be 1estless in cap
tivity to a hat that shows her at the
worst. Such particular disaster may
be laid to the cloche.
Another telling and admirable
argument that milliners bring forth
is that the cloche must be worn in
one way and none other. 1t must
eclipse the head. II must shield
the eyes and nape of neck at the
same time. II it slips upward from
the back and rests on the protruding
knot Of hair, a woman's head looks
indecorous. And this it often does.
Just watch the heads in crowd and
see.
II she does not bring forward the
hair on the temples until it rests
on the cheekbones. let her eschew
the cloche. II there Is anything
uglier than the brim of a hat rest
ing against the naked ears it is un-
known to niIliners.
Such arguments are telling. But
they will not win out unless milli-
ners invent hats OF sufficient COM
fort and attraction TO persuade
women that the bell-shaped one Is
not the only pathway to success.

WHEN the milliners drew inspira-
w tion from old Russia for the new
tiara hat, they were compelled to
change it's form in order to give
women a chance to shield their eyes.

ent colors and the whole was an ex-
hibition wonderfully graceful. They
expect to- perform the same drill at a
national exhibition a few months from
now. -.
AS looked at these girls thought
Of the similar drills and gymnastics
which were going on at this same hour
all over this new republic and I could
not help but think OF the effect on the
nation.
These girls come from every class
OF society. Some are department store
clerks, some stenographers and typists
and some walk on carpets and belong
to the rich. But the atmosphere is
that Of a perfect democracy. They
mix and work together and, although
there is order throughout, the best OF
good feeling: seems. to prevail. My
guide told me she knew nearly all OF
the girls in the room, although she
could not call them by name.
And Just here I want to say a word
about the women Of this new republic
as I have seen them on this flying trip
through the country. I cannot pretend
to Judge, but I only give my impress
sions. They are beautiful and won-
anly, and withal free from some of the
weaknesses of the girls of our Aneri-
can cities. There is practically no use
of the lip stick, the powder puff or
the rouge pot. Prague is almost as
big as Boston and almost half again
as large as the city OF Washington.
Nevertheless, in one afternoon you will
see more powder and paint on Wash
ington street. that ancient COW path of
New England. and on F street in our
National Capital, than you could col
lect here if you scraped the faces Of
the Prague girls from one years end

BY ANNE RITTENHOUSE.


Y TS waste Of time trying, to reform
women from frequent buying of
new clothes when the trade has
= decided to show four new sets Of
fashions q year instead'-of. two, as
formerly. II alluring things are in
the windows they will go inside. They
may be quite convinced that they GO
only to look. But their pocketbooks
are bit emptier when they emerge.
We can't resist change in fashion
or the lure Of a new garment.
France through trade reasons has
decided to show these four sets of
fashion q year to American buyers In
q formal manner. It's remarkable
that she hasn't done this, before. Our
merchants and dressmakers are di-
vided into several sections, but she
has ignored this fact in catering TO
the high-priced dressmakers twice a
year.
The manufacturers are doing the
big business with Paris these days.
They buy hundreds of models where
the dressmaker buys dozens, or
less, which is the reason the girl on
Main street wears French designs
which have passed through American
hands. They may be cheaply built.
but French inspiration is behind
them; they set the style for length
and breadth, for ornamentation and
coloring.
These manufacturers finished their
spring purchases before December set
in. They copy. broadcast, establish
the styles before the first green leaf
appears. That's Americas way. Even
before their work began. other
manufacturers had brought over the
water the so-called Palm Beach
fashions which are sold to. women

told that the small representation in
the latter body is due to the fact that

the women wish to acknowledge they
have reached two score and five.
= AS to voting here. there is no need
Of a literary test. AS far as Bohemia
and Moravia are concerned, every one
can read and write, and the standard
Of education is above that Of almost
every country of the world. There are
practically no illiterates. although IL is
quite diffe 'ent in Slovakia. The new
republic has about two million pupils
in the schools. 1t has more than If
teen Thousand schools. including every
branch Of education, primary, secon-
dairy, high schools and universities,
schools for women and schools for men.
There are $4,000 students in the uni
versities OF Prague alone. Since the
organization of the government three
thousand new schools have been es-
tablished in Slovakia, including many
for adults, and everything Is peing
done to bring the educational stand
ing Of that region even with that Of
the rest Of the republic.
The boys and girls feel their respon-
sibility as members OF the new station.
They know they will have an equal
chance from now on and soon every
one. like our American youth, will ex-

they have the example Of the great
heroes of the revolution. DR.. Edward
Benes, to whom I have already re-
ferred as the Thomas Jefferson Of
Czechoslovakia, left the farm at the
age of twelve and worked his way
through the university to international
fame, and President Masaryk was born
poor and apprenticed to a blacksmith.
nevertheless, he became one Of the
greatest scholars of central Europe,
