BY JEAN PATOU

Paris, Nov. My millinery de- partment has been a source of never- failing interest to me. In fact I find myself becoming engrossed in hats. much to my surprise. At the outset it soon would get ahead of me if l were not careful. The reason for this is that new hat is turned out practically every day and modistes never stop creating. Hats, therefore, are often in ad- vance of current fashions.
 Only a five seasons back a Lat was not much an integral part of an ensemble as it is today. Now 1t Is a complement. not an access sory: the fourth piece of three- piece suit. By this I mean that a hat designed to go with certain ensemble not only completes ii but cannot very well be worn with any other.
 The hat completing a sports en- semble must have very different lines from that meant to accom- pany a dressier suit of an after noon costume. The matters Of material, shape and trimming all these are of the greatest i'm. portance.
 A supple, noppy-brimmed hat or a too elaborate creation with aigrettes would look absurd with suit. just as plain felt would great ly detract from the charm of a clinging afternoon gown. The hat must absolutely harmonize with the dress 1t is meant for. It must re- call some detail of 1t, in the shape of buckle, incrustations. an irreg- ular brim to match an irregular skirt. or any other theme used to trim the dress.
 Could women realize how much a hat can mar or enhance their aspect generally. they would spend even more time and thought on the choice of hat. l have client who is reputed to be one of the smartest women in Paris. She in- variably wears the same shaped hat but with il achieves the necessary variations of texture and trimming to harmonize with her gowns. My client has studied her type l and spent much time and energ, before deciding on the style mos, becoming to her. The result is tha, she always looks we'll halted. which , perhaps is more important than te 1 look ell-gowned. What is more her hats never look demode.
 The difficulty in selecting a ha, for woman is that it must be be. coming to her and at the same time suit the dress. The choosing of g dress is that much less complicated

Lilltan's Fears Concer1ling Narian's Approaching Young Ladyhood Are Broken Into Ky the Ar
 rival Of the BrixtON's.

Lillian gave me quick, startled glance as l asked her if she expect ed to lure Marion in a nunnery The query had held a tinge of delib- crate malice. for I felt that she should be made to see how absurd was her evident uneasiness over the school girls perfectly natural inter est in the coming visit of Ronald Brixton, who would be the first col legiate of her acquaintance.
 "I suppose l am the original mother dnck who was afraid of hav- ing her duckling learn to swim," she said with rueful smile. but you see Marion's interest in the visitors has hit me between the eyes because it is so different from her usual line. She always has had the tomboy at- titude toward boys you know"
 What boys ," l asked bluntly. "Mary's small brothers when they were here. Junior-and-if you can count him among the juveniles Jerry Ticer. What other boys does she know? What opportunity have you had of noticing her interest in the opposite sect'?''
 She sat down heavily in the near est chair and stared at me. her eyes filled with lively dismay.
 What a nincompoop I've been!" she exclaimed. "The child doesn't know . single boy of her own age or a little older, and the only girls she knows are those of the school. She was invited to two or three homes you remember, but I didn't let her go-she didn't want to leave me anyway"
 "Yes, remember" said a bit shortly.
 And you thought my refusal un- wise ?" There was no resentment in her tone. only . tremulous anxiety. summoned my courage and an- swered her plainly.
 "Yes. did. for you had met the mothers of those girls, and knew their standards were like your own. You had no reason for keeping her exceid your own reluctance to let her out of your sight. And-forgivc me-you know Marion's devotion to you-how can you be certain that she secretly didn't wish to go?"
 She brushed her hand across her eyes as If clearing away something trouble affecting her sight.

 Handle the doughnut dough as little as possible.
 Have the fat for the frying the right temperature, which Is 375 de- grees F. \ simple test to add . peeled potato to the hot fat and if it browns we'll in 70 counts, the fat is ready for the doughnuts. If the fat is too hot the doughnuts will brown very quickly and be raw on the inside. while if the fat is not hot enough. the doughnuts will not rise quickly and will be grease soaked and soggy.
 If doughnuts are fiat on one side there has been insufficient fat for the frying.
 Doughnuts should be turned only once.

'-f{ : tfrftr a Farmer Browns Boy Is nothjng If not theisghtfui. Hg always has his eyes open Tor his little friends of the Gre4h Forest, the Old Orchard and the Green Meadows So. it was that he spied Happy Jack Squirrel in the Old Orchard. He noticed how Happy Jack was going from tree to : tree.
 T de believe Happy Jack is look ing for .. hole in which to make a nest" sad Fla armer Browns Boy. T believe he has decided to leave the GreeA Forest and come over here. Nuts are pretty scarce this yeaS and guess Happy Jack has decided that he'lf fare better if he stays around here. But he won't find a hole in any of those apple trees. No. sig, he won't fnd. Q hole big enough ]. fos him to make his home in. Now wen have to do some thing about it.. Yes. sir, we'll have to do something ahout it.''
 Farmer Browns Boy waited to see If Happy Jack would build big nest of leaves ,as he sometimes does. But that wasn't what Happy Jack was looking for for a home. He would do it if he had to. He liked a summer home of this kind and he could spend the winter in one if it were necessary. But he much pre- ferred to find a hollow tree or to get inside building. So he made no attempt to build a nest.
 Then Farmer Browns Boy took good-sized box. covered it with tarred paper to make it dry and warm, made hole in it big enough for Happy Jack to use and carried the whole thing out to a maple tree in the dooryard. Up in q crotch of this maple tree he fastened this box so securely that no wind could shake it down.
 There" said he to Happy Jack, who was watching from short dis tance away, there's a house for you. If you are q wise Squirrel you'll take possession of it before some one else does
 Happy Jack didn't wait for Farm CT Browns Boy 10 get 10 the barn door. In fact, Farmer Browns Boy had hardly turned his back beior. Happy Jack was up in that maple tree. First he inspected the new house outside. He went all over it He didn't think much Of that tarrec paper. He didn't like the smell of i particularly well. Then he tried hi' teeth on it and he didn't like th, taste of it. Of course. he didn't un. derstand that that tar paper wa! to make his house dry and warn and comfortable.
 Then Happy Jack poked his heat inside. For some few minutes h' didn't venture in, but was satishee just to look around. Then he wen in. once inside. he forgot all abou the tarred paper on the outside That house was just the right size It wasn't too big and 1t wasn't to' small.
 Its just exactly right" declaret Happy Jack. II do believe ]'arme Browns Boy put il up just for me It couldn't be better. All l have 1' do to make 1t perfect is to make good bed in here and that I'll d right away. l never had bette home.''

CHICAGO, Ill, Sept. 27.-Now that
summer vacations are over and King
Georges ghost laid low. all eyes are
turning 70 William Began, the new
superintendent Of Chicago schools,
who steps into the shoes Of the GUST
ed superintendent, William r. Mean
drew, with the opening Of the school
year.
AS il 10 test the mettle he is made
Of, the first problem brought to his
attention is that Of the stockingless
girl. Certain educators, reformers
and other persons have issued an
edict that the girl minus hose shall
not pass TO her classes the first day
Of school, and the stockingless girls
say they will. Hence, the war Of silk
stockings is on.
Incidentally. the stockingless girl
is as prevalent here as in Sacra-
mento. where 500 school girls were
recently barred from entering classes
because they had nothing on to cover
up the e~perdermis Of their legs
Superintendent Began, however,
when preached on the subject, indi-
@AAEA hG NVAAA HC 0A &AE 0AAG "a ~At
girls who say they are going with
out stockings TO fright the high cost
Of silken hose.
at is hardly the business Of edu-
Gators 10 say what girl students
shall wear" he said. stockings and
other items of dress, according to
my views, are matters Of personal
preference and nos 10 be regulated
by school teachers, boards, superin-
tendents or others. The girls will
neither be punished by me nor sent
home from school if they elect TO
appear without stockings"
The problem of the new stocking
less fad is facing the whole city.
One meets stockingless girls in every
block. and a large percentage of the
public school students say they in
tend to 20 TO school stockingless until
the cost Of stockings goes down or
silk stockings become runiess. The
mothers are backing their daughters,
and say that if the girls are COM
PEELED 10 wear silk stockings in the
face OF the terrific upkeep OF these
items il will be just too bad for
whoever makes that rule.
