Simple frocks gain new charm
when finished with smart collars

dresses can be made quite plain
in themselves, and with becom-
ing collar and cuffs distinctive

Collars and cuffs used on simple
frocks as a distiT ctive trimming
feature are made most frequently
of organdie, georgette, wolfe, linen
or ribbon, the color and size de-
pending always upon their becom-
ingness and the dictates Of
fashion. A tiny collar band an
inch wide may be used, and,
again. a bertha may extend all
the way to the waist line. The
Dutch, Buster Brown, or Robes
pierre collars appear from time
to time as a feature of fashion
and may usually be adapted to
individual taste. The shape, color,
texture and trimming should be
considered carefully, because
collars and cuffs must be SO per-
fectIy designed and made as to
seem to belong entirely to a frock
and complement it, rather than
appear as extra pieces.
In using patterns to cut collars
and cuffs, always consider well
the fabric and the effect to be
produced. Frequently it is ad-
visable to cut the pattern pieces
down, or make them little
larger. that the proportions of
the collar and cuffs be right for

also called the sex urge. The
ephant is dangerous. The urge
So strong that bananas and pea
auts do not inhibit it. Sometimes
nothing can: he gets so mad he

There comes a time when the
farmer misses the sow's face at
the trough. II he knows the live
stock of his neighbors, he knows
where to find her. 1t may be
miles away and many fences in
between. She will be there.
Laboratory tests have been made
20 determine the danger q hungry
animal viii face to get food. One
easily measured is the crossing of
an electrically stimulated plate;
It must accept the shock to get
at the food. No shock short of
electrocution will stop the food
hungry rat. 1t will face the
same charge for mate.
The biologic function OF sex is
reproduction. In all species with
sexual reproduction. the sex i'm
pulse is and must inherently be as
strong as the impulse to live. The
mechanism for reproduction is
enormously varied, but not more
80 than other mechanisms useful
for food and oxygen metabolism,
Tor capturing food, for defense
from enemies. The mating cycle
also varies with different species,
as does the period of infancy, the
relationship between parents and
offspring, and the methods of
) courtship.
= In short, each species has its
own reproduction complex. So
Tar ~ the species is concerned,
the individual male or female
which does not play his or her
part In the complex contributes
] nothing biologically useful to the
9pecies and might as well never
have been born.
Sterility in vertebrates is not
more unknown than other con-
genital variations which distin-

the normal run. In states of ma
ture it il to be presumed that all
normal individuals play their
part in the reproduction complex.
Why this IL so In no more, no
less, applicable than why food
complex impeIs animals to seek
and INCEST food.
The drive for food IL backed by
= sensori.motor mechanism which
functions until food is secured and
ingested. Food itself in the ali
mentary canal is stimulus or drive
for further actions and reactions.
But the initial drive was hunger:
It was potent impulse to reac-
tons. thereby bringing about
adjustment.
The drive for a mate, likewise,
is backed by q sensori-motor
mechanism which functions until
the mate is secured and the SEX
uaI act completed. Subsequent
changes are themselves the stimuli
which impel to nest-building and
other activities which will be use
ful for the life of the progeny.
Biologically, the chief distinction
between the food-hunger and the
sex-hunger impulses is that they
function in different rhythms.
These vary in different species,

havior, even in modifying struc-
ture.
Species vary greatly in these two
respects. In some, secondary SEX
ual differences are slight in others,
marked and highly characteristic
as in most species Of birds, many
species of vertebrates, and the an
thropoid apes. Patterns of be-
havior vary, from extraordinarily

cesses of metabolism, they seek
and INCEST food because impelled
by food-hunger. That hunger sat-
isfied, the alimentary canal will
do the rest and furnish the void
ing stimuli. So with the mate-im-
pulse. 1t knows nothing of cubs,
squads, or children. The drive is
for the mate.
The Washington times., 1928-03-30

(2) The mere fact that this or
that species reproduces through
the mechanism Of sex means that
the sexes must be different and
must be responsive one to the
other. In other words, in sexual
reproduction there must be two
types of bodily structure, two
modes of behavior. Five tomcats

brates. But in general the food
rhythm is fairly continuous from
day to day throughout life, the
sex rhythm is confined to certain
fairly definite years OF the indi-
vidual life cycle. and within these
years to fairly definite seasons or
periods.
A hardly less important biologic
distinction between the food.im-
pulse and the mate-impulse il that
in one case the adjusting reaction

the other, two individuals of OPP

must be the biologic equivalent of
courtship in all species with sexual

There are three biologically sig

not by a "desire of offspring"

or the species dies. The species
only lives through its individuals.
The individual mate-hunger must
