pearls Just bit too loose to be a
choker
This means. of course, that the fore
| head, or at least a patch Of forehead. is
eminently desirable. We may cover
the temples and the sides of the ears
as much as we like, but the little sec
ton of brow above the nose and center
half of the eyebrows has taken on great
Importance.
This new outline of the hat gives to
MANY faces an entirely different express
sion from the one they bore when hats
were draped straight across the brow
or worn at a rakish. vagabondish angle.
Girls who looked like gypsies now look
like Madonnas. Eyes that looked very
sophisticated when shaded by the low
drawn brim meet yours now with the
guilelessness of a figure in a stained
glass window.
Necklaces are often worn so as to
give further effect of the oval and in
order to get this slightly dropping curve
at the neck you may want to have your
chokers made to fit little less closely
around the neck. A good many of the
new chokers 1 have noticed are made
with a fairly large ornamental clasp
placed at the front. not at the back,
the weight of which brings the necklace
down a bit at the front.
It is interesting to see how readers
minds often run in the same channels,
and when we receive one request for
certain sort of pattern diagram, another
or two or three others for the same
thing usually follow. And there have
been several requests recently for
baby jacket-something to give the lit
tie newcomer for his or her first BIRTH
day present The pattern we have for
you is for a Jacket just a little too
large for the first few weeks because
little tiny babies nowadays are usually
kept as simply clad as possible. If you
would like a copy of this diagram,
please send me your stamped. self
addressed envelope so that we can
forward it to you.

Artistic Temperament.

Like many other matters in the
affairs Of mind, it's real and it's eXag-
gerated. Everybody has some kind of
temperament. for that word refers
to the general level and pattern of your
emotional life. In some persons the
emotional waters are pretty nearly al
ways calm; occasionally little ripples
make momentary furry, and once in
great while there may be a storm,
not much of one at that
Now the theory of temperament is
that you are that way because you're
built that way: and to that l firmly
adhere. You can no more change your
temperament than the leopard it's spots,
but you can do much to curb and check
and control and direct the complicated
mass of impulses which your tempera
ment may provoke in you
To return: that calm, eaSy-going.
non-excitable type of individual is pre-
sumably the most common type of tenn
perament, at least among the north
European, including the British and
Scandinavian and Dutch and north
German races, prominent in the make
up of the early settlers of America.
Temperament as hereditary Is in part
| racial.
But America is a melting pot of tenn
| peraments as we'll as Of races so
statistically the South European and
semi-Oriental elements Italian, Greek
and Jewish in large proportion) may
contribute as much and more to the
| composite. The Slavic tend toward the
stolid, not easily moved, yet violent
when aroused. These tendencies like
wise are real, but easily exaggerated
as to their dominance for doubtless
all races contain individuals of all tenn
! peraments but the predominant type
! is none the less distinctive
So once more, speaking generally and
! loosely. most persons are not very pro-
nounced in their mental-emotional
makeup. They are not strongly of
any one temperament; they are rather
neutral In their temperamental color
scheme. Similarly they haven't any
highly specialized talents, but are fairly
good at fair number of rather simple,
ordinary aptitudes. They form the
common lot, the ordinary run. It is
well that this is so; they furnish the
background of stability of the Nation.
When this temperament is marked it
becomes not neutral, but negative and
is called phlegmatic
Opposed to 1t was the temperament
prone to anger and violence, which, for
no reason that means much any longer
was called choleric. The names of the
other two anciently recognized tempera-
. ments are still wider of the mark, fof
they were named according to the type
of disposition. whether hopeful and
cheerful (sanguine) or gloomy and de-
pressed tmelancholic). We do better tc
recognize these as the persons of ex-
citable temperament. in modern times
called nervous. They are of many va.
rieties and when they are markedly
temperamental they compose in one
of their settings the artistic tempera-
ment, real enough but easily exag-
gerated.
An important clue to temperament
is its eXaggeration in the abnormali.
tics. OF these hysteria is the most
instructive. Hysteria is the name of q
mental-emotional disorder as we'll as
of a temperanl, at in which that dis
order readily develops. We must be-
come used to the notion that We near

Prejudice.

The vast majority of men, especially
those who hold responsible positions,
must gamble on their chances of esti-
mating situations correctly. It's practi-
cally impossible for any one to form an
entirely impartial decision in matters
that vary the slightest from the routine
order. Why? Because of pre- judgments
or prejudices, most of which you do not
know you possess.
Suppose man says. Let me tell, you
what think about it." You ordinarily
think you get an opinion more or less
worthwhile. What you really get is a
flrst-class prejudice. Most of the "ites"
and the "antis" gain their livelihoods in
traffic with preludiced opinions. You
will do we'll to attach little Importance
to opinions other than those coming
from the settled men of the settled pro-
fesSions.
The important thing is to locate a
persons prejudices before you begin to
estimate his opinions. Nine times out
Of ten the man you are trying to study
will betray his prejudice by some ques-
ton.

Hat Styles and Oval Faces
BY MARY MARSHALL.

Oval faces for women have, I sup

times fashions are such that the oval

"At 70 time in the history of the
labor movement in this country was
there such a crying need for a
strong and centralized relief organ
ization, deeply rooted in the mass
of the workers, as there is at the
present time.
"There is no better way to get

struggle"

Special Red Poets
Night Tickets Are
Designed by Ellis

The attractive tickets for the
third annual International Red
Poets Night seem = to be meeting
with great favor. The little red
pasteboards made their debut at the
big Daily er-Freiheit ball in
Madison Square Garden Saturday
night and many workers dug into
their pockets for the requisite six
bits and noted down the date, Fri
day evening, Dec. %, end the place,
Manhattan Lyceum, CO e. 4th St.,
in their memorandum books.
The tickets for Red Poets Night
have been especially designed by
Fred Els, famous cartoonist Of the
Daily Worker. They annor~ce in
striking design and colors the two
chief events of the evening: the
poetry readings and the Dance Bac-
chanal, which will follow to the
snapry jazz strains of John C.
Smiths Negro Jazz Band.
The lineup for Fed Poets Night
includes the foremost revolutionary
poets of many nat:onalities, who
will read from their own work in
their own language. Tickets are on
sale at the business office OF the
Daily Worker, 26-c8 Union Suare.

La JOta and Tango to

The dance arranged by the Span
ish Fraction of the Workers Com
munist Party on Saturday, Deem
Der 22nd at New Harlem Casino
10th st. and Lenox Avenue will be
something. entirely different from all
other workers dances that have
been held. The arrangement COM
mittee promises to have among the
numbers en- the program exhibitions
of typical Spanish folk dances and
also many other Latin-American
dances such as the Argentinian
Tango and La Jota, also a variety
of Russian folk dances. 1t will not
either forget to give the folks
plenty of time to dance to John
Smiths Jazz Band.
The biggest surprise of the even
ing will be the special feature to be
given by the "Antillan Group"
quartet of singers and musicians
giving their latest songs, those they
have recently prepared for the
Oriental Records Company. Among
the various nationalities that will be
represented will be the Paraguayans
and the Bolivians in perfect peace
and harmony as the workers are not
enlisted'in the war for oil.

CHRlSTNAS--FOR THE
US WORKING CLASS

part Of the labor misleaders, the
Greens, the Lewises, etc.
Class collaboration between the la
Dor betrayers and the coal opera
tors and the strike is called off, the
workers sold out. Those who fought
in the forefront are victimized,
blacklisted and condemned to starve.
There are thousands of such families
awaiting our help and if we do not
come to their assistance the results
will be disastrous.
What is true of the coal fields is
also true of the textile centers, es-
pecially New Bedford, where 10000
were recently sold out by the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor officialdom.
The same thing happens wherever
workers dare assert themselves.
There the capitalists and their
agents hit the hardest, but in spite
of all the suffering and hardship
the class struggle continues and be-
comes sharper and sharper while
the bosses are piling up hugh profits
at the expense of the workers. A
new labor leadership is arising, new
unions are being build with fight
ing program, a program based up
on the class struggle and demanding
the overthrow of capitalism and the
establishment of workers rule.
w. l. r. Aiding Sufferers.
The Workers International Relief
is doing everything possible to sup
port these struggles of the workers
by aiding the children and the
women and men who fight in the
front line trenches. The w. I. r.
can only do this if the workers
everywhere put their shoulders to
the wheel and contribute, not once
or twice, but as long as the class
struggle continues. A little ray of
sunshine is urgently needed in the
lives of the children of the militant
textile and coal miners. There
parents are penniless. 1t is up to
the working class to help them.

POSTURE" BY
BROWN CONFLICT
FARCE, SAY MEN
Sign Cards to Show
Are Not Employees

(Bg Worker Correspondent
II. A. Innes Brown, editor of Taxi
Weekly, a bosses trade paper, in an
editorial last week threatened" to
EXPOSE" racketeering in the taxi
trade. There is one racket that
Brown won't expose and any taxi
driver working for the taxi fleet
owners will gamble that Brown
won't dare to expose the fleet own
ers' new racket. The racket is known
as the compensation racket.
When applying for a job as taxi
driver the worker must sign card
which in part says, "that in consid-
GRAFTON of my hiring of said cab" l
promise to give the bearer 60 per
cent. With this card and lawyer,
Col. Lands, the bosses organization
last year went before Commissioner
Lane of the Compensation Board
and got decision in it's favor.
The bosses were able to prove that
the driver is not a worker but a
contractor. AS it is, the driver takes
out the cab and gives the boss his
days "booking" out of which the
driver gets 40 per cent. And if he
is injured, and many are, from
changing tires or cranking up the
cabs he gets nothing.
Up in the Bronx, on Park Ave-
nue., a taxi fleet owner is known to
be collecting from his drivers 15c
a day for compensation coverage.
Not bad racket. If for one taxi
boss he signs away his rights to
compensation, he gets nothing, and
for the other boss he must pay for
the protection he is entitled to by
law. And they get away with it.
And if that is not racketeering, what
is it, Mr.. Brown? According to the
compensation law it is illegal.

Hold-Ups Make Cab
Drivers Life Harder

Edward c. Smith of Jamaica,
Long Island, taxi driver, was
robbed and threatened with death
night before last by two men. They
asked to be driven around town, and
at the corner of Douglas st. and
Fourth Ave, reached into their
pockets as though for guns, and
made Smith hand over all his mon
ey, including the days earnings,
and also his cab. The men, VIM. F.
Casey and Chas. T. Trywell, were
later arrested and the cab found,
Another taxi drivers cab was stolen
by five men at Flatbush and At
lantic yesterday. They hunted from
one restaurant to another for him,
saying, "If we find him we will
blow the belly off of him." Finally
they too, were arrested and the cab
recovered, after a policeman had
shot several bullets thru it.
