Clues to Character
BY j. o. ABERNETHY.
Character in Handshake.

Nothing is more indicative of char
acter than handshakes. You would
not expect to get q donation from
one who extends two fingers to be
shaken and holds the others bent
back. Have you ever noticed the
difference in handshakes?
The hand coldly held out and with
drawn quickly indicates a cold. if not
a selfish and sometimes a heartless
character. The hand that seeks
fleets q genial disposition and ready
sympathy for his fellow men.
In the grasp of large-hearted, gen
erous-minded persons there is a sort
Of whole SOUL expression that you
instinctively recognize. A hearty
hand clasp IS an index to warmth,
ardor, executiveness and strength of
character.
A soft, lax touch. minus the clasp,
Is indicative of a lack of warmth, of
executiveness and strength of char
acter. In a momentary squeeze of
the hand how much of the heart
comes through the fingers?
Much of our true character is re-
vealed in our handshakes. Sincere,
honest and sympathetic natures give
you the whole hand in cordial,
hearty clasp. You may depend upon
the firm handshake as one of the
most reliable clues to character. If
the grasp is warm and ardent, so is
the disposition. If it is cool, formal
and without emotion, so is the char
acter.

Life.Saving Beetle.

Entomologists are among the most
practical and useful scientists in the
world, haved saved many lives. and
know how to take the lives of harm
full insects in large quantity. 1t IS
not often that we hear how insects
save entomologists' lives, though a
spider Is supposed to have saved that
of the Scottish chief, Bruce. But
there is a true story OF great French
entomologist who was implicated in
political troubles in the stormy last
century in Frances history, who was
about to be sent away on a convict
ship to a penal colony where disease
soon ends mems lives. An officer
on the ship was much interested in
beautiful beetle; the entomologist told
him it's name; the officer became in
terested in the scientist and procured
his release.
Now what do you know about that?
Answers to Yesterdays Questions.
1. A great hurricane recently oc-

S. Although the wind may blow at

hurricane, the center of the storm ac-
tually travels very slowly, so that
the storm remains in any one place
for many hours.
s. The difference between ty-

storms; hurricanes are West Indian.

Beaded Ties and Laces for Shoes


the beads match the shoes, not the
laces. White shoes may have inserts
of colored leather and beaded laces to
match the inserts. The beads may
match the laces or the shoes Or the
shoes can be given note of harmony
with any costume with which they are
worn by slipping beads to match on
to the laces or ties of shoes.
Laces, Ties, Bows, Etc.
In speaking of laces. the word Is
used in it's broadcast sense to indicate
ties, or ribbons which may be merely
decorative bows, fastened to shoes
without there being any lacing at ALL
The fashion for ribbon bows on shoes
is revived, and this novel touch of
bead tips denotes an up-to-date style.
Laces or ties are not strings merely,
but are wider generally and especially
when ornamented with beads. The
beads must therefore have good-sized
holes through which to draw the laces.
Adjusting the Beads.
The beads can be held in position by
various means. They can be sewed
fast after being slipped over the lace.
They can be between knots taken in
the lace, or, when the lace is extra
wide and the bead stays in place well,
the knot can be below the bead with
out any above. The beads may
form actual tips to the laces, or be up
for an inch or so from the end, which
is either knotted or allowed to flare.
If the tip is knotted, that will hold the
bead in position. If the end flares II
is apt to be fringed out. in which case
the lace may be knotted to stop fur
there unraveling and thus hold on the
bead above. Or the lace may be
wound tight with a thread that
matches and the bead be sewed over
the thread or above it. if the tassel is
to be accented. Sometimes real tas-
sells are sewed to gathered tips of
laces. AS can be seen. there are all
sorts of ways of using the beads alone
or in combination with other decora-
tive ideas.
The beads should be light in weight.
either of wood, painted. or of some
composition equally light. AS for the
shoes on which they are used, there
are endless styles and On practically
any of them where lace ties or bows
appear these ornaments may be used
appropriately.

DR.. Winifred v. Richmond.

Among the newer professions for
women, that Of experimental psychol.
ogy is probably one of the most inter-
esting and valuable. With all the
work that has been done upon 1t, the
science of the mind is the least known
of all the sciences. and the possibili-
ties of future development stretch
into q realm as yet beyond our imag-
nings.
DR.. Winifred V Richmond holds the
eXacting and difficult position of staff
psychologist at st. Elizabeth HoSpi-
tai, but she is there because she is ire
mendously interested. Any work with
those the world calls feeble minded or
insane Is difficult beyond the knowl-
edge Of those who have had no con-
tact with 1t. 1t is a service that has
to be taken in the sense Of a gift to
society and with a spirit of infinite
pity for the wanderers beyond the
border line of nor1nality.
DR. Richmond became a psycholo-
gist naturally, because she has always
been fascinated by human behavior
and the reasons why people act as
they do. Her home is in Athens,
Ohio. Her education was obtained at
Ohio University with the degree of
A. b., and with her A. M. and Phi. d.
at Clark University. Worcester, Mass,
in 1919. Her specially throughout was
psychology and mental hygiene.
For some time she taught in high
and normal schools in Ohio and in
Maine. but in 1917 and 1918 she
worked as psychologist at the Waiver
ley. Mass. State School for the Feeble
Minded. In 1920 she was in the bu-
areau of Juvenile research at Columbus,
Ohio, handling adolescents and chill
dren. The next two years she spent in
the State Training School at Lander,
Wyo., studying epileptics; and since
May 1921. she has been here at St.

Your Baby and Mine
BY MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED.
Bows Will Fight.

Following is, a letter which no
doubt will strike a responsive chord
in the hearts of many adorinS and
fearful mothers. What to do for boys
who will fight, and especially brothers.
Mrs. Il. F. says. in part: II have a
problem. one over which l must adj
nit failure | have three children
two boys, and 4, and a baby of l
year My trouble is the management
of my older boys. They seem very
clever, the eldest being in second
grade in school, but they scrap and
fight continually. Their fighting is so
extreme that they actually endanger
their lives. They bite and scratch
and get each other down and punch
each others heads. | have tried all
kinds of punishments, the old-fash-
toned whip and the eWfaShioned eX-
plantations, all to no avail. Please
give me some advice that will help
me-"
Answer--There isn't a mother liv-
ing who doesn't look at the brutal
way in which boys pummel each
other with aghast eyes. She is sure,
absolutely sure, that they are going
To kill each other. Now a good deal
OF this apprehension is because
women are so little given to personal
combat that they can't look at 1t with
the same eyes as men. who bear up
under such punishment remarkably
well.
In the case of these two boys, since
all methods SO far have failed to alter
their actions. l should turn about
face and instead of talking against
their fighting. l should encourage it.
With this difference. l
should buy them book of rules on
wrestling or boxing and read it to
them. I should enlist their father
as umpire and would buy them box
ing gloves and let them go TO it,. fol-
lowing all the rules. Encourage them
TO read about wrestling matches and
stimulate in them a desire for fair
fighting. IL they must fight let il be
in a sportsmanlike manner with all
due observance of the rules, and with
no danger to themselves.

the value of these little trimming
motifs has been quickly appreciated.
They dress up shoes without adding
appreciably to the cost, and they can
be used with old as well as new shoes,
since shoe laces may be bought sepa-
rately. These beaded shoe laces are in
accord with the present fashion for
fancy shoes that within the last few
months has taken rapid strides. Never
before have shoes been so ornate nor
SO diversified in style. Some of them
border on the freakish while others
are so exquisite or so smart that they
have a distinct appeal to women who
have become educated in the value of
attractive footwear.
The beads used on shoe laces may
be either the color OF the shoes, the
laces-if they are not identical--or be
in contrast. or they may match the
costume. For example, tan shoes may
have tan laces that match and beads
Of the same color. Or the shoe laceS
may be a deeper shade of tan, with
the beads to match the laces of the
shoes, as preferred. Black shoes may
have white laces or vice versa, and
