EARLY FALL
FROCKS
BY Rita Stuyyesant-

row that it is time to plan
M your autumn wardrobe,
- y here are few suggestions.
A delightfully."- youthful little
street frock Is OF a. new charmeen
fabric with collar and cuffs of
white flannel. Overstitch braid
applied in a plaid effect is novel,
and Of course the dress follows
the straight and narrow line.
Poiret twill is again with ls in
a charming one-piece frock that
shows triple applied folds of con
trasting crepe silk and flaring
godel also of the crepe silk.
Black or various shades of brown
are used.
The jabot is attempting to
come back into vogue. and its in
spiration is q smart frock Of
crepe satin in rosewood brown
The front has a lined rever that
may be looped up as jabot and
a TERED godel of contrasting dull
gold tones A fox fur, and a he
coming little hat makes this satin
frock ready for the matinee or
tea.
That pleats have not gone out
completely is proven by another
interesting frock made on the re-
verse side Of the crepe satin, with
two pleated tiers made On the
satin side. The rest OF the froci1
is decidedly simple, the edges be-
ing bordered with loops of con-
trasting ribbon. Black, navy or
brown is smart for this lovely
frock.
Cocoa-coIored georgette in a
pleated model is becoming with
dark-brown hat, fur and sandals,
worn. with hose OF cocoa chiffon.
A straightline frock. with long,
looped peasant sleeves, has a
pleated apron front of three tiers,
tied in the back with a slim sash
of the georgette. No other trim
ming is shown, for this clever
frock relies on its beauty and
material to make it pleasing.
There is a quaint charm about
the new cavalier frocks worn by
the young, slim girl. A pleated
skirt of black satin is attached to
a bandeau and over this is worn
a straight jacket of the material
cut close but straight to the 1jg-
ure and falling just to the hips.
The front of this blouse jacket is
fastened by white pearl buttons
and so are the long, tight sleeves.

GENIUS IN THE
CHILD
-By WIN. a. McKeeYer-

4 w 1AAe = - AsASA1C
" HE most reliable resource in
your child is his inherent
genius provided you give
it chance, put it to work. and
trust it.
Genius knows no rest, no let
up, no eight-hour law, no long va
cation. Once you allow it to start
it keeps going. That is the rea-
son it wins; it keeps at it after
nongenius has quit. The only
really successful and happy men
and women among US today are
those who were fortunate enough
to be turned loose early upon the
line of work or the occupation
which Iured them.
In 1900 a father started out
with determination to make a
physician out of his twenty-year-
old son. Two years were lost in
laundering along on an artificial
trail Then suddenly the father
saw q new light. 1t was the
genius of business ability thrust
ing itself out OF the sons char
acter. The course of training
was switched to banking and
commerce with ample practice to
sustain the study of the theory.
Today this son is one Of the
most competent business men to
be found In great city.
The true genius in your child
will not necessarily stand out in
bold relief at an early date, but 1t
is there. nevertheless. and must
finally have it's opportunity If you
may reasonably expect creditable
results Of his schooling and gen
eral training.
Usually, the bigger the promise
of the latent genius in your child
the slower it will move at first
and the less 1t will accomplish for
the time being. 1t requires much
time for a ponderous object to
gain it's true momentum, but once
it Is well under way you may ex-
pect it to move with great force
and effectiveness.
Again. I plead for the chance
to achieve which lies hidden with
in the tangled mass of inherent
qualities in every ordinary child.
Not merely the few but the many
have such inherent possibilities
of a good and useful as we'll as a
happy life. The genius within
your child is sure, safe, reliable
and--after once set going-it will
become persistent and powerful.

full survey Of everything that you

1t has been said that every per-

1t follows, therefore, that the

There should be no decisions in
