A1ElE SUMNER

The layman struggling with the
mid-year bills reads that President
elect Hoover will probably tour the
West Indies for a rest after his rest
in Florida following the picking CT
his cabinet after his rest on the
South American Good VIII tour.
The layman, stocking his furnace,
doing contortions over the grocery
bill, and wondering II he'll get laid
off the job with the rest Of the boys
next week. probably finds all this q
bit bewildering and questions just
why one needs constant rest from
other rest spells.
IT'S THE TRUTH
And yet It's no exaggeration to say
that II confronted with Hoovers Job.
and even II q Hoover himself and
hence capable Of It, the layman
would find himself envying the COM
paratively simple life he had known
as a mere humble laborer. just q
Hoover right now probably envies
what seems to him the embarrassed
life Of the private citizen.
FAR PASTURES
Just the old story Of '.far pastures
looking greener." Perhaps, In pro-
portion to his abilities. each human
has about the same lot with which
to contend. While the layman who
never travels looks at other peoples
travels as the embodiment Of pleas
Tue, travel can really become some
thing from which to rest for the man
who has too much Of It. Hotel life.
SO glamorous to many, is bleak and
dismal to the travelling man. And
there you are!
MONEY TROUBLE
Police were called to certain
hcme in certain city the other
night by shooting. They discovered
that husband had shot his wife,
"just to scare her." he explained, be-
cause he had just learned that their

up the deficit somehow II five dollars
week can't pay the bills for eight
people. But occasionally one catches
q glimpse Of the fact that women
can do their own shabby money stuff
pretty we'll, from rifling pants pock-
cts to getting house deeds in their
own names and proceeding to evict
papa. The question is who started
It? Do women have to do such
things in self defense? I'm inclined
to think SO.
FILIAL LOVE
Margaret r. Paine, musical direc-
tor Of school in Koyoto, Japan. is
rushing over a journey Of more than
1000 miles in order to reach her
mother who is dying In Miami, Flor
ida. before it is too late. Perhaps
nothing so unusual III that story. We
are rather accustomed to our accept
ance Of the comparative lukewarm-
ness Of filial devotion as contrssted
with parental. We take 1t for grant,
ed that parent will dash through,
fire and water to meet the needs OF
q child, but find it more surprising
when child feels the same compell-
ing urge towards parent. We're
probably right, too. It Is rarcr.
ANOTHER FLIGHT
Here's the story Of q woman who
recently took another kind Of q Jour-
ney. fighting time and space to get
away from someone rather than to
get to them. Mrs. M. Samson
tramped nearly so miles through the
icy forests Of Quebec the other day
IN order to get away from her hus-
band.
Only az. she claimed that her IS
year-old husband forced her to cook
for Is lumberjacks. giving her con-
stapt blows and all forms OF abuse
She walked through the deep snow
With no shoes on, only pair Of
rubberS.
Just one more man who hasn't vet
learned that women are not property.
But authorities into whose hands she
fell are sending her back to him lust
the same. She wants to stay In Que.
bee and work. They tell her that he
Is her husband and she must 60 back.

Jenny Wren couldn't forget that queer insect in the shed of Farmer Browns house. You will remember 1t was what is called House Centi- pede. So she kept going back to look for it again. She didn't see it until the next day and then she spied it. She darted at it. As before 1t ran into a crack. Jenny grabbed twice. Each time all she got was a leg an1 these she dropped. For a moment she quite lost her temper. But when she had calmed down a little she heard again that funny little squeak. This time there were two squeaks. That is to say, squeak came from two different places.
 Jenny cooked her head to one side in order to listen to it. It sounded like the very faint squeak of an insect.
 There must be two of thsm," said Jenny to herself. Its queer ! can't find them."
 Just then MT. Wren joined her. "What are you hunting for in here?" he demanded.
 "Listen!" said Jenny.
 Mir. Wren cooked his head on one side and listened. There are some insects around here" said he. and began to look about.
 That's what I thought. but can't find them" said Jenny.
 What are those things kicking down there?" asked Mir. Wren.
 Legs" replied Jenny. Twice I've tried to catch a queer fellow with long legs and all I've got vas those legs"
 That noise seems to come from around them somewhere" said Mir. Wren. listening more intently than ever.
 T know it, said Jenny, but you can see for yourself that there are no insects around them"
 It was true. There wasn't the smallest of insects to be seen any where about. You may be sure that two pairs of bright eyes like those of Jenny and MT. Wren would have seen the smallest insect. It was very mysterious. Together they hunted all over but all their hunting was in vain. Finally they gave it up. for they could waste no more time with those hungry babies over in the nest.
 But Jenny Wren couldn't forget that mysteriou1 squeaking. She came back later. There was no squeaking. Once more she looked everything over thoroughly. then finally gave 1t up. Tt is too much

 From behind Edith Fairrax's back. as she avowed her delight in planning decorations Lillian lifted her eyebrows at me and smiled sar- donically.

 For fleeting instant something ugly looked out from Ed,th Fair fax's beautiful eyes. Then she mask Ct with apparent good nature.
 I'm the best little errand girl in the city" she said, and no one could have detected the mockery which was sure lay beneath the words. '.Tell me your great ideas, Madge, and I'll make a list of what you want"
 Subtly she had managed to make me feel that my plans for the din- ner were flat and unattractive, and I had to force myself to apparent Donchalance as I answered her.

 Her tone damned my choice of damask. and she used the same be- Hitting tactics as l told her of my choice of china, silver and glass for the dinner.
 "Is the Olina Princess the gor- eeous dark creature l caught a glimpse of in your apartment?" she asked Lillian.
 Sidetracking Edith
 "Yes. You'll meet her after a little. She wasn't gowned correctly. she thought. so she hurried into her room when you came"
 There's only one color scheme for her." Edith said decidedly "Deep red roses. and candles and favors all the color of rubies."
 "'Pears to me. you're getting your dates mixed, Ede," Lillian drawled. This isn't a Christmas dinner, you know"
 But you're right about it's being the only color for the princess" I said. But l am not building my scheme around her at all. Selfishly am going to make Mary the queen of the feast. Let me show you the gown she's going to wear"

gown has dignity and beauty. Made with the dressmaker touches that give softness, a lace gown is utterly feminine and alluring.
 Black lace is ever distinguished. Beige lace is an answer to more party problems than any other single fabric. Some of the new. frail and expensive faces in cream or flesh have a gentle, sheer quail ity of beauty that is akin to sum- mer zephyrs.
 Chiffon gowns are so light ana airy that every woman will want to know the pleasure of dancing in them this year. Colors are d veritable spectrum. Modes are as varied as ilues.
 The thing this summer is to have a little evening jacket fash toned of ones gowns fabric Per haps no one will want everything to be ensembles. But at least one or perhaps two of the evening gowns should be complemented by a light matching wrap.

 Every morning the first thing Jenny Wren went to look for that Centipede. and every morning she stopped a minute or two to listen for that queer squeaking. But she didn't see the Centipede and she didn't hear the squeaking. Mean- while the babies were growing fast and required more and more food, She forgot all about the Centipede. There was no time to think about anything but food. It was food. food, food from morning til night. She and Mir. Wren hardly had time to get enough for themselves. Hun gry babies must be fed.

 You'll have marvellous dinner table," Lillian exclaimed, and Edith acquiesced perfunctorily.

 "Yes, I do know a lot of shops, she said gamely "and I'll dc the best can for you. Madge Tell me now. what and how many and how much you want to pay for them.''
 She jotted down the commissions I gave her. and then we went back into Lillian's suite where she met the Princess Olina and renewed ac. quaintanceship with Mary. When she finally left us Dicky escorted her to the elevator, and I saw Mary glaring after them as if the per functory act was a dictince offense to me and all rules of decorum, and I was petty enough to be comforted by her championship.
 Well. We tanned her." Lillian whispered jubilantly at her first opportunity.

Expecting Too Little

By Alice JudSOn Peale
 Our babies are SO dear to us that unconsciously we try to prolong their babyhood. We love the sense Of complete possession which comes with the utter dependence of our children upon us.
 We are apt to expect too little Of them in their early years. Then when they no longer are children. we are bitterly disappointed be- cause they seem to us irresponsible. incompetent and lacking in juds- ment in the management of their lives.
 Here are some rough gauges by which you can get some notion of your child's development. At three he should feed himself. At five he should put on his clothes and man. tons and the tying of his shoes laces.
 At nine he should get himself through his morning routine, know where he left his school books, and get himself off in time for school At 12 he ought to face the unpleas- ant reality of home work without procrastinatioa and reminders. If your child does not do these things it is a sign that you have expected too little of him.
 Don't baby your growing boy or girl. Don't assume for him the re- responsibilities which more and nor" he should be assuming for himself, Don't let him lean on you when he ought to be standing on his own feet. Let him learn to meet his ob- ligations by experiencing some of the results of failing to do so.
 Expect your child to be his age. Remember that the little daily du- ties which seem so trivial and which, because you are so much more efficient. you are tempted to perform for him, are the means by which his characters is largely formed. Hold your child to the level of self reliance of which you know he is easily capable.
