 the high fur collar has been &C., cepted and allowances made for it to the extent that whole series l of stunning hats are especially de- signed for it.
 There is no back brim to these
 hats In the main they are little
 tams, berets. cloche models or shaped turbans. But they are
 charmingly feminine. becoming.
 individual and, often. exceedingly decorative atop a smart coat of fur.
 Two Materials The vast majority of these com- bine a couple of materials. Plain felt and the new long haired type called "fox-felt" or "rabbit-felt"
 make a good combination. Vel-
 vety velours take inserts of hat ter's plush. Pressed velvets are
 new. used oftcnest with fine felt. Panne velvet is excellent and 1 new hat material is panne taupe. Most of these little fur coat hats have trimmings of another fabric even if their shapes do not include at least two. Velvet ribbon, grad ed by color into little feathers. flowers and other decorations Is very good. Quills, feather fancles,
 and lace are used too. If a pin IS added, it is because it is distinct-
 i've, not just a pin.

 By means Of ckin tests with ex- tracts of the suspected substances it is possible 10 show the nature of the things 10 which the person may be sensitive.

Guiding Your Child
GRANDMOTHER By Mrs. Agnes Lyme

Grandmother is a mother who has lost her job.
 The children to whom she has given years of unstinted devotion have gone on to the responsibility of being parents themselves. She is left with an empty house and too quiet dinner table or perhaps even goes to live with the children she has reared.
 Her once busy. competent hands are idle. and her thoughts and emo- tions have little to occupy them com- pared with those crowded years when she was the head of de- manding family.
 It is small wonder that she finds it hard to adjust herself to the new situation, or that in the process of finding her place in the changed scheme of things she frequently plays havoc in her child's home and is anything but constructive influ- ence on her growing grandchildren.
 Many temptations beset the grandmother. As she watches the young parents make what she con- siders grave errors in training their children, she is tempted to display her own seasoned knowledge.
 Sometimes she falls to the major temptation Of treating her grand children as if they were delightful toys. She spells and pets the young sters as she would never have thought of doing her own children.
 Often she does not control the qucrulous irascibllity of age Having lost all sympathy with noisy youth she announces that children should be seen and not heard. that it is bet ter to wear out the rod than to spoil the child.
 Most frequently of all. by siding with parent against child, or with child against parent, she is the author of dissension and conflict.
 Respect for age and filial affection grant no immunity from the respon- sibility which rests on every adult who has to do with children. Wheth- CT she agrees with them or not, grandmother should feel bound to cooperate with parental attitudes and methods. and to famiia rize her. self as far as possible with the ways of enlightened pareNhood.
