 The American girl has beautiful feet, and the surpassing art shown in every variety of American footwear is worthy of her. At no period in the history of dress have girls feet been more prominent. and conse- quently requiring greater skill in management. Therefore. the vexed question of what to do gracefully with the hands has now added to it another and more difficult one, graceful use of the feet
 To eliminate any extreme position of the feet in walking, if the habit is abnormal in either toeing in or toe ing out, practice the straight foot line.

dill6 Your @ Child @
IN Nu1;ENCE
By Mrs. Agnes Lyne

By Mrs. Agnes Lyne
 Parents cherish the illusion that their children are quite innocent" By innocent" they mean that they are free of any interest in or knowl- edge of sex.
 This apparent state of innocence is something in which parents take great pride. They are happy in tns feeling that alth ,ugh thsy them- selves arc stainad and scared by life, their children are still ss fresh and purs as the. day they were born. They try to keep them 70 n long as possible.
 Al . matter of fact nothing could be moro unwarranted than this a. sumption of innocence in childrsa. The mass of scientific data accumu- lated tn late years bears out the conclusion that all children. unless they are defective. arc naturally tn- terested in and curious about sex.
 Parents who serenely state that their child has no interest in the subject. that The has never asked . question" are only telling the intellt- gent listener that they have made their child feel 90 guilty about hts sexual curiosity that his lips are sealed in the presence of his elders. Such parents can never know what goes on in their child's mind.
 Why are parents % eager to as- sumo that their children are inno- cent? It is because they themselves feel guilty about sex. Although they have become parents they have not lost the unhappy fselings of sin and shame instilled in them in their own early years. It is . vicious cir. cle in which the sins of the fathers are indeed visited on the children even unto the third and fourth gen. eration. The heritage of guilt is handed down from parent to child. It makes little difference whether this is done by gross prohibitions. or by the subt).st evastons. The sensitive child is injured by both. No amount of subsequent teaching about the beauty" and sacred- ness'' of love can wipe out an or iginal strong impresson in the life of a child.
 If inoncence Is freedom from guilt then only those children can remain truly innocent whose parents help them to face the facts of sex in simple and natural way.

 appointments
 Katherine's whispered gibe brought mo back with a start from what she laughingly had called my mind reading. But indelibly im- pressed upon my mental tablets were several facial expressions, fleeting but betraying, which had revealed the dominant emotion in those of our guests whom l was watching.
 Prince Georges dancing with Prln- cess Olina was talking earnestly with her most of the time. and l guessed that he was telling her of his inter- view with Charles Owen. But often his eyes strayed to Mary, dancing with Mir. Owen, while Princess Olina's surreptitious watch of Noel. dancing with Carolyn never ceased. There was no jealousy in either gaze. I knew as would have been the case had Mary and Noel been dancing together, but there was the distinct uneasiness which each or this romantic royal pair manifested in any activity of Mary and Noel which did not include them.
 I wondered If their eyes, sharpen ed by jealousy, noticed that Mary and Noel also were giving only per functorily courteous attention to their partners, and following each other with their eyes. But my specu- lations concerning the quartet Of young people at such cross purposes ceased, as abruptly as did my obser- vstion that Charles Owens poised manner hid rage at Prince Georges. and a sinister sort of satisfaction at the sight of Marion and Ronald so absorbed in each other. For the dance record came to an end, and forgetting everything else, they crowded around the fruit punch bowl.
 "supper is ready" 1'toid them, Mrs Bickett and I thought it was a pity for you to stop dancing to prepare it."
 How perfectly adorable" Caro- lyn exclaimed, and her brother look ed at me.

Buster Bear tried to fool himself. He tried to make himself believe that he was surprised to find him. self back at the place from mich he had started in the morning. Now, how did I get here?" said Buster to himself How under the sun did l get here? Why. this is the place l was running away from. and here I am back again!. We'll now that l am here, I believe I'll have another look at those pigs. A look isn't going to hurt anybody"
 But Buster didn't start right over to the pigpen. In the first place. there were lights in the little farm house, so he knew the farmer had not gone to bed. In the second place. he heard a dog bark over in the barnyard. and dogs always make him nervous. So he decided that he would not have a look at those pigs until the lights were out in the farmhouse and the dog had stopped barking.
 | keep still. He wandered about uneas- lily. keeping all the time in the blAckest shadows He kept his ears open their very widest all the time. Every little sound he heard would make him jump. He was very jumpy indeed. Yes. sir, Buster Bear was very jumpy, indeed. That was be- cause he was nervous
 At last he saw the light go out in the farmhouse. He had heard noth- ing of that dog for long time, for the dog had been called into the house. Buster waited. He wanted to be sure that everybody in the farm house was asleep. When at last he thought he had waited long enough he started toward the pigpen. But he had gone only a few steps wheu he turned and ran back into the woods He thought he had heard d noise from the farmhouse. He waited long time and then tried again.
 This time he was almost over to the pen when a horse in the barn stamped. Away went Buster. straigh, back to the woods. He certainly was jumpy. This time he decided that he didn't want to see those pigs. -1'iI so off," said B lster, and ] won't come back. I've seen those pigs once and they'll look just the same the second time. Looking at them won, do me any good anyway. ] want te taste one, not see one. But I'm no, going to taste one. because if migh' get me into trouble. So if I am no' going to taste one, what is the gooG of staying around just to see one? won't do it. I'll go away right now.
 Buster walked few steps ther turned and walked back again. Ther he sat down. looking out towarl that pen. As he sat there his head swung from side 10 side. as Bear: heads have a way of doing. He jus couldn't tear himself away. One O the wandering Little Night Breeze: brought the pig smell over to him You and l wouldn't have liked thai smell We wouldn't have liked it al all. But to Buster Bear it was the most tantalizing smell possible. NJ wonder he coul 1n't tear himself away.
 The little stars twinkled hrigh-is in the sky. The moon eamo out and flooded the little farm with light Out there back of the barn the pig pen was almost as light as by day The pigs were uneasy and movcf around. Buster could hear them Finally he sighed It was a long deep sigh.
 I've got 10 have one or thoS' pigs said Buster 10 himself T JUS can't get along without one or thos' pigs. Every time I think of thos' pigs my stomach turns over "ltf

Buster Bear climbed up over the rails of the pigpen of the lone ly little farm on the backside of the Great Mountain. Buster was a long way from his home in the Green Forest near Farmer Browns. It is doubtful if he would have been bold enough to climb into any one's pig pen over there. but here it was dif- ferent. He wasted no time. He seized one of the young pigs-a pig that was about quarter grown. killed 1t almost before>it had time to squeal, and dragging 1t back with him over the rails of the fence, he carr 7d It to the woods. He carried it sur prising distance. You see. he had a guilty feeling. He knew that those pigs belonged to one of those two- legged creatures called men. But so far as Buster was concerned, he could see no reason why he had not so much right 10 eat pig as the man who kept it in the pen. So he didn't feel that he was stealing.
 Now, though Buster didn't know it, it was Thanksgiving Day. There in the early morning hours Buster was eating his Thanksgiving dinner You would have called it breakfast hut it really was dinner for Buster would not eat again that day. My how good that pig tasted! Buster hadn't had a full meal for so long that he couldn't remember when il was. This was the time of year Wher l his appetite was best and he wa: supposed to eat most in order tf make fat to keep him warm througt ! the cold winter His appetite thi year was just as good as ever. bu the acorn crop and the beechnu crop had failed. and Buster hat hard work to find enough food t keep him from day to day, not t mention making fat for the winter So. you see, this was a req Thanksgiving dinner for Buste Bear. When he had finished it h
