shades have disappeared almost
entirely while black is coming
back stronger than for some time.
Other hosiery shades that are
promised a goodly share of popu-
larity are beige, African brown,
cinnamon, neutral, and atmosphere.
The long straight waistline ac-
companied by the fared skirt is
evident in practically every kind of
dress. Evening and party dresses
making an exception as some Of
these have the boufont effect. The
most popular and striking cOlors
are those of the pansy shades, pen
Gil blue, rust and coco. Black en-
livened with touches of these bright
colors also is meeting with much
favor
DRESS materials are made up
principally of the fiat crepes, satin,
charmeuse, jersy, poiret, and serge.
Fur trim is used extensively on all
types of dresses, while scarfs will
continue to be extremely good
throughout the season from the
present outlook" Mr.. Behn says.
"Boutteoniers and corsages of
dainty colorful flowers in endless
variety form an important part in
the trimming of many Of the
dresses and COATS" according to
Mr.. Behn. placed on the should
er or at the waist line on the
dresses, these exquisite bouquets
add very materially to the charm
of garment, while they also are
used with splendid effect on the
coat lapel.
"Coats reflect the low-line flare
of the dresses and also the colors.
Fur trim is found in squirrel, grey
fox, brown fox, stone marten, grey
and tan moufflon and fitch. Coat
materials are found chiefly in suede
needle points, Ottomans and Boil
Was.
Hats are generally SMALL" Mr..
Behn found, with close-fitting
styles leading. 1t was very hard
for him to buy a large hat that
would fit any but a bobbed head.
"a new departure in gloves
which he brought back, is the en-
broidered, turn-back cuff. Gloves
in suede and kid have the turn
back of velvet with designs in
bright colors embroidered on them. :"

One only needs to walk the
streets of any city for a day to
hear similar remarks by parents.
"The conductor will throw you off
the car" or, "See that man watch

cane" these are typical express
sion to quiet or frighten children
because the parent is too weak in
discipline to control them in any
other way. =.
Recently a doctor remarked con-
fidentially in describing the trouble
he had encountered with a frighten-

up mothers to the fact that it is
very serious to have a child fear
the doctor. This child today had

She raised her temperature sew

prises for her or to have played a
new record on the victrola. She
should have willingly stayed in bed
because she loved her mother and
had been taught to respect authOri-
ty rather than through fear of be-

A threat to a child always denotes
a weakness in the tie that binds
that child to be respectful authority.
| Why does a mother need to tell a
child a big black bear will get him
if he doesn't shut his eyes and go
to sleep? Probably because she
has managed his bedtime very err

went at seven and the next night If
the family wanted to go to a movie
he trailed along and was put to bed
at nine or later. Now, tonight, be-
cause there are guests and Son

will come if he disObeys, all of
