Mrs. Guernsey Curran, Jr.

New York, Oct. 14-Everybody has new line this fall. Spring may bring the flowers but autumn pro- duces the silhouettes.
 The bell silhouette is the sports suit favorite right now. This de- veloped in tweed and jersey, nips In a bit at the waist line, hugs the hips and then fares more often than not, by the use Of gored or circular skirts or skirts that intro duce godets. Mrs. k. T. Phillips has a beige tweed, long coated suit that has it's flare. Its colorful scarf is of jersey. Mrs. Guernsey Curran Jr.. wore a grey tweed frock of this silhouette under her fur coat at the Piping Rock horse show, a frock with an unusual woven braid for neck decoration and blouse motif
 \ Note on Scarfs
 New scarfs have way of tying themselves under ones chin in the most enhancing manner Mrs James Russell Lowell wore a smart little four-button jacket of rust jersey that had it's own very long scarf that knotted this way. It was very chic. Her hat and skirt were the new cedar brown, a brown that comes very near being red in spirit.
 The tweed suit that doesn't fur , l.. l.. ot nearly so sporty as its lines might indicate. It is modish to have lapin dyed 6 color to match the tweed, or one may use raccoon, skunk, leopard, or any other de corative fur. Marjorie Sperry has a novel tweed suit in grey, black and white that uses grey lapin for front facings and deep cuffs. She spon- sors hats with brims, l am glad to note, for outdoors events with the suns glare beating down on folks seem to call for them.
 Pretending Roughness
 New fabrics are strictly modern in the way they affect a roughish eAleTlOI, UlII dlC I]iiV etiiu bNi4NSN.N in fabric, really. Mrs. Clifford V. Brokaw, Jr., has a new little pastel colored suit of pebbly looking Ro- dier cloth that feels like exquisite ly silky crepe. It has that inimlt- able "dress-makcr" touch to a su- perlative degree in it's trim little high-wasted frock with tweed tie with fringed ends, and in the we'll fitting coat of graceful lines.
 The variety achieved by the little fabric turban this winter leaves one marvelling. Mrs. Curran wore a tight-fitting one of grey jersey with black felt banding the faceline and f1aring in one little earfap. Bertha Norton, at the Piping Rock horse show, wore an elaborate one that used narrow bands of brown felt, along with woven beige material to create little beret turban that swathed the head as if made to stay there, achieving tremendous chic thereby. Lydia Ahles sponsored one of soft beige tweed that fared a tiny brim back from the face. dip- ping on both sides in the Partisan manner These chapeaux are equal ly smart with sports things and with tailored garments.

Talks 1o6& AL pate1,ts
THE PERFECTIONIST By Alice Judson Peale

A man who as a camp director has worked and played with boys for many years says that above all the things from which he would try to protect his own child is the bale ful influence of excessively high standards.
 Children, he feels, are hurt more often by high ideals than by the lack of them.
 The child who is a perfectionist finds life unnecessarily hard. Near ly always he falls short in his own eyes. Seldom does he know the glow of self satisfaction and success.
 He becomes discouraged, and fre- quent discouragement Is not good for growth. With it often go irrita- bility and carrying over of the hypercritical attitude towards oth- l ers-a state of mind not calculated to make for happy social relations. One such young idealist covered his feeling of self depreciation with a swaggering exterior that won for him the reputation of being con- ceited bully.
 The hypercritical attitude not only makes difficult the ch!ld's social re- | lationships, but it stands in the way of accomplishment. He starts to make something, but as it hears completion he sees how far it falls short of the perfect thing he had in mind when he began. Without finishing it he throws it aside and restlessly looks for some other occupation from which, in all probability, he will reap no greater success. His standards serve only to give him poor habits of work and a sense of imminent failure in what ever he undertakes.
 Give your child ideals that he can live with, standards of achieve ment which, with good effort and
 intention, he may attain.

 More and more, both in this coun- try and abroad, physicians are be- coming seriously concerned by the apparent increase of attacks of rheumatic fever affecting children.
 The great danger of rheumatic infections is it's spread 10 the heart and the permanent crippling or carly death of the child that may be attacked.
 Several physicians have felt that a certain type of child, particularly those who are fair, with red, sandy or auburn hair, was more likely to develop rheumatic fever than an" other The British physicians have recently studied 562 rheumatic chil- dren and compared them with others not rheumatic. They failed, however, to substantiate the belief that the especially fair type of child was more likely to have the disease than any other. Neverthe- less, the occurrence of rheumatic fever in families and the develop ment Of the disease at a certain age in most of the children in such families has caused many observers to feel that the last word has not yet been said on this subject.

However when you have lived here a little longer and have begun to really know few things about Striped Chipmunk and some of the other people around here you will know that Striped Chipmunk never leaves any telltale sand around one of his holes. This hole, by the way, wasn't dug from above. It was open ed up from beneath
 Flip thought this over for a few minutes. It puzzled him. He couldn't quite understand it. How" " he asked did Striped Chipmunk get in there to dig out?"
 Easily enough" replied Bowser. ! Hes got hole perhaps some dis | tancc from here Or, anyway, he did have q hole. He may have filled it up by this time. Then he made a tunnel until he reached this place and decided to dig out" ! "But what did he do with the sand when he was making this tun- ! nel?" demanded Flip. CII' suppose ht lOuHu plaCeS down under ground where he could pack it away between stones. Then ! some Of it he probably pushed out of the hole where he first dug in,'' . BoWser explained.

STRIPED CHIPMUNK EARNS
