FASHIONABLE CROWD
 WATCHES TENNIS PLAY
By MARGARET GREEN
Associated Press Fashion Edito

Associated Press Fashion Editor) PARIS, June 1S-Long delayed good weather and the tennis championship matches at the Ro land Garros stadium, Auteuil brought out the new clothes which feminine Paris has been waiting. to wear.
 Between matches Helen Wills had the time and the inclination for a little chat about clothes. She said:
 My chief criterion of clothes has to be the degree to which they wrinkle in packing. can't be ovei-burdened in the matter or wardrobe, so select models which will be suitable for various occasions" She has just pur- chased two ensembles which she chose for their simplicity.
 q think simplicity is the big thing in dress" she said.
 One of these ensembles is of a new light wool material which is like silk, even to the touch. The young tennis champion bought a light-colored brown coat with a brown and white checked silk frock to match. The only trim ming on the dress is the diagonal stitching on the pleats of the elyirt Tho o,ot ;e 1;,ad 4o mat n !, the dress, and the flower on tE, coat is also of the checked ma terial. ff
 Another outfit which Miss Wills selected is a printed dress in crepe de chine with cloth ccat lined to match.
 Every dress seems to demand separate coat these days" shC remarked.
 Mrs. Molla Mallory, Olympic player, appeared off the court in beige and brown polka dol crepe de chine dress with large dots. She wore brown straight line coat and beige and browr hat.
 Beige and brown were alsc worn by the former Nancy Ann Miller, whose costume was 6 cloth ensemble completed with ] beige sports hat
 Cherries and buttercups were tha two color notes freQuenIly seen. Black tailored suits were much in evidence, and realistic punches of cherries were worn al the lapel.

IMPROVED MOTOR FUELS IS GOAL
 OF STANDARDS BUREAU RESEARCH

WASHINGTON. June 16-Few of the motorists who drive up to q filling station for five gallons of gas" know that behind the scenes in Washington a little group of research scientists has been working for five years to give thsm better fuel and mora efficient motor performance.
 oil refiners desire to produce improved motor fuel and auto mobile engine manufacturers en- deavor to utilize most effectively inc available gasolines. With these objects in view. the Ameri- can Petroleum Institute and the National Automobile Chamber of Commerce, through the Society Of Automotlve Engineers, have been cooperating with the Bureau of Standards in joint research pro gram The work is still under way, and only the occasional "pfogress reports" that appear in the technical press give hints ,oi the achievements.
 Finished problems include ar investigation of economic fuel vol atility. which determined whai grade of gasoline would afford the greatest mileage per barrel o' crude oil It was concluded thai economy of petroleum resources dictated the use of s heavy : gasoline as possible. but that Z practical limit was set ry tn, dilution of crankcase oil and the difficulty of starting with heayl fuels, Especially in cold weather. Next came the question O crankcas coil dilution The re search staff was able to formulate operating instructions for mini mixing dilution with a given en zine and fuel.
 At present the experts, unde the direction of II. K. Cummings chief of the bureaus automotiy, power plants section, are studyin. three main problems-measure ment of fuel volatility. engine ac federation and measurement O anti-knock value.
 Since gasolines are mixtures o hydrocarbons. rather than definit sc0mpounds, like benzine or alcC hol. they have boiling ranges ra ther than boiling points and ar Identified by means if distlllatio fcirves which show the tempers ture required to yaporize definit amounts under specified cond tions. These temperatures ar much higher than those require 10 yaporize the same gasoline when mixed with air in the auts

Direct Questioning May Lack Wisdom
 By EDITH LOCHRIDGE REID, ~,.

The two mothers were discuss ing the subject of confidence as an important phase of discipline. Mrs. Walton believed it to be easy to keep in touch with what the child was doing and thinking. But Mrs. Barlow was doubtful. She declared that she had not been successful when she set out to win the confidence of her son.
 Just then Alan Barlow came in from school. He had left his chums waiting for him outside.
 "Well, dear" began his mother, how did you get along today?'
 "All right" answered Alan, as he began to pull off his school sweater preparatory to getting into his play clothes.
 But that's what you always say" protested Mrs. Barlow, "and this morning your teacher called me up and said you had not hand ed in your geography maps for two weeks"
 Alan continued to hunt for his ball and bat and made no furth- CT reply.
 How many words did you miss in spelling?" His mother seemed determined to press him to the limit to test, as she thought, this matter of gaining his confidence
 But before her question was completed, Alan had dashed out of the door and was gone.
 There, you see what I told you questioning doesn't get me anywhere" Mrs. Barlow challeng ed her friend.
 With most courteous apology for being frank, Mrs. Walton ex plained that Mrs. Barlow's meth cd was at fault.
 Allan was tired after day al school. He may also have beel worried about his lapses in his studies. And besides. his com panions were waiting for him You could scarcely have caught him in a more unfavorable mood If you are trying to gain his cen fidence."
The Daily Alaska empire., 1928-06-18

But how should I go about getting this problem of his school studies solved?"
 Speak to him about it in some quiet hour when there is no pos sibility of terruption-never in the presence of anyone elce, and only when Alan seems in chat ty mood"
 Mrs. Walton had a number cf suggestions to improve Mrs. Bar. lows idea of creating confidence And they were all good and all practical.
 One thing is certain. if mo ther must ask questions to settle problem of conduct, those ques- tions must never have a tone e challenge or of censure. Mrs. Barlow should not have suggest. ed that Alan did miss spelling words, although she was reason. ably sure that he did because spelling was his greatest trial in SNhcoi Woih.
 Furthermore. it is not necessary to ask a child how he got along in school the minute he gets in side the door, nor is it at all feasible to propound this a"estion every day. There is something wrong with the method os train ing when asking questions is the main way of finding, out what is in the child's heart.
 Confidence is not quality that can be obtained by demanding. Confidence is of the soul and must be inspired by love and sympathy. Children can be mado willing and even glad to tall; over problems that are personal and to welcome any help that may be given them, but this can be brought about only by the most delicate tact
 | In the crude. direct quest ioning such as Mrs. Barlow employed in dealing with Alan, the child Is at the mercy of the questioner rather than in a position Of equal ity. Condolences are exchanged only on the level
