CH|VALRY STILL VERY MUCH ALIVE Even in Political Life, Says
 Miss Cline

Women holding any sort of jobs today. and especially women fin public office. must work as human l beings and not as women, according | to Genevieve Cline, the first wom- an customs appraiser of America, who has been nominated by Presi- dent Coolidge to the bench of the |. s. Customs Court of New York. This appointment would make Miss Cline the first and only woman fed eral judge in America.
 "Once upon time women expect- ed chivalry from men and. got it," she says.~ We still get it, but in different way. We get it by playing the game fairly and squarely and not asking for special favors just because we are women.
 We must remember that all women in public life are being watched with more scrutiny than any man on any job ever received. Our success or our failure is the success or failure of all women in public life. We must not endorse women for public office merely be- cause they are women. We must insist that all women for whom we vote are as ell qualified for pub lie office as any man.
 Women OH jobs must take criticism and suggestion from both men and women with a little better grace than many of them do. Living and working is neither mans nor a woman's job. We all must play the game and do the job together"

rinted Chiffon
 to Be Popular
Will Be One of Modes
 For the Fall.
By HAZEL REAVIS

Associated Press Fashion Editor. )
 Paris May 25 R-Light weight printed chiifons may take the place Of lowered chiffons for fall. They
 have a place of prominence in the 1 advance autumn showings and some houses are predicting that they will be worn for late summer.
 The new velvets apepar in small geometrical patterns much like the designs on chiffon and crepe de chine prints SO extensively used for sumner
 The most common use for velvet
 is in coats, made on straight lines, with or without a collar of fur. Some finger length straight jackets are also shown. At one house a
 gray and white printed velvet jack
 ct is worn with a pleated black sat- in skirt The print almost matches
 the mottled design of the gray and white feather turban worn with the costume.
 Printed velvet evening wraps are extensively shown in the mid-sum- mer collection. A noted designer uses two kinds of printd velvet in
 an evening wrap with a shoulder
 length cape. The wrap proper is of
 beige velvet printed with a con- ventionalized rose pattern in black. It has a scarf collar of coral colored chiffon printed in pale gray. The same dressmaker shows sev-
 eral dresses in which printed velvet is used in the manner of lowered
 chiffon for full skirts of more or less draped line. These dresses are long in the back. One model has a puff of velvet around the hips. Lightweight velvet is used at
 many places for dresses whoch are cut in tiers or bias ruffles.
