Everyday Psychology
Night Hawks.

Night Hawks.
The psychology of the night hawk
Is nothing new in the world OF mental
life, though many suppose that 1t Is.
You hear it said that this Is an age
of revolt against the established order
of things: that the gay night LIE OF
our modern cities Is a psychological
protest against all forms Of social re-
straint
Nothing could be farther from the
truth. The younger set land the
older, for that natter, who go In for
the "gayer hours Of wine, song and
dance, are merely trying to live more
completely. OF course, q large per-
centage of them find in the end that
they are dealing In watered STOCKS,
purchasing false values.
When Rev. Thomas H. Whelpley OF
the Chelsea Presbyterian Church,
New York City. became a taxi driver
he discovered facts that the average
clergyman knows nothing about. AND
out of his experience come some
worthwhile deductions.
He found 'men and women not less
religious today than yesterday" He
found the night hawks going no place
in particular, did not know where they
were going, and did not care" He
discovered that they were slaves Ito
their passions, their hopes. their fears"
and that they were trying simply to
get away from themselves"
Most significant is his conclusion
that Men are not fools. Discouraged
and disguised with religious bigotry,
Observation-Disclosures strife and stupid
sermonizing. they have gone their way.
And they have lost their way"
The sum and substance of night
hawk psychology is this: 1t is not q
revolt: it's an escape.
Perhaps we shall all one day learn
that the human mind is not stuff
that may be nodded into permanent
forms. This knowledge will help us
all to tolerate ourselves and our
neighbors.

Types.

Types.
There is one type Of girl who finds it
very hard to dress. That Is the unusual
girl--the girl who looks little odd,
not a bit like any one else. It's much
easier to be an average" for then
average clothes and average hair dress
ing styles are all right; you can be one
of the many well dressed women, part
of the crowd; or you can choose such
out of the ordinary clothes that you
lend yourself false distinction.
But the girl who is already little
odd what of her? She can't wear or6i-
nary styles of clothes, that's certain;
for they won't make her look like every
one else. She's so apt to feel her
strangeness of appearance puts her off
in class of freaks, and generally she
is most sensitive about 1t. If this
"odd" type would only learTi to play up
its eccentricity. to look different from
other people and be daring about it.,
then there would be more variety to
our crowds, more life and color in any
assembly of people. For we all tend to
dress alike, wear the same sort of
hats and shoes, and the distinction be-
others lies only in minor points.
know one odd type. She has very
protruding gray eyes and about two
yards of dark hair. She was wise
enough never to bob this, but wears it
coiled around and around her head.
She had to invent hat. Daytimes it's
a helmet-shaped felt, which comes way
down on either side, and for dressy
times wrapped silk turban, which
gives room for the braids of hair. She
has worn q moyenage type of gown in
the evenings for years when every one
else had skirts to the knees, and day
times always soft silk or velvet dresses
as picturesque as possible, never in
style, but so pretty as never to be out
of style, either.
I know a skinny little woman who
looks well only in tailored clothes. For
evenings she has to carry her tailored
lines into evening frocks, but she does
1t successfully and avoids all present.

PANAMA MINISTER
 TALKS ON TREATY
Dr, Aliar0 Sure Nations Will
 Abide by Agreement

University, Va, Aug. 9 P)-The good faith of nations is the only sanction of international treaties, declared Dr. R. J. Alfaro, minister from Panama to the United States. In discussing the Pan-Amerlcan treaties for conciliation and arbi- tration before the Latin-A American round table at the institute of pub lie affairs here this morning.
 pr. Alfaro voiced the hope that none of the signatory states repre- sented at the Washington confer ence in January will ever attempt to evade arbitration of differences.
 End Long Effort
 "The Pan-American conciliation and arbitration treaties signed in Washington on January of this year represent the elimination of T long struggle of 40 years,' he ex- plained. "The decisive battle was won when the nations of America, by unanimous accord signed in Havana the memorable resolution of February IS. 1928. In that reso- lution the principle of obligatory arbitration was solemnly adopted and a special conference was called to draft the treaties. The purpose was expressed in Havana and car ried out in Washington"
 Dr. Leon E. Truesdale, chief sta tistician for population of the bu- reau of the census, said that many rural communities are being left without leaders and without mate rial out of which to make leaders He discussed the city-ward drift of country population before the coun- try life round table at the institute
 Migration Selective
 "Migration from farm to city, es- pecially that made up of young people, is selective in it's nature,' Dr. Truesdale pointed out. Tt is largely the more enterprising young men who leave the farms and the less enterprising who stay" ..-..,.

SNOWDEN STAND IS
 BASIS FOR BARGAIN
Prof. Yiner Sure English Leader
 Seeks Compromise

Williamstown, Mass. Aug. g (P)- The action of Philip Snowden. chan ce1lor of the eNchequer of England, Tn obJecting to distribution of annu- ltles under the Young plan is prob ably based on a desire to bargain Tor the location of the proposed in ternational bank in London and early evacuation of the Rhineland, rather than a revision of the distri- button of annuities, Prof. Jacob Niner, economic expert of the Uni versity of Chicago, told the Institute of Politics today.
 Will Accept Compromise
 Speaking before the internally debts and separations round table, Prof. Viner declared that what MT. Snowden has asked for he would un- doubtedly like to get, but there is no reason to suppose he would not find compensation in other forms.
 "The most significant aspect of Mir. Snowden's attitude is that it in dicates a break on the part of Brit ain with the policy of following France he said.
 ''The labor party has seized the opportunity presented by the repar- ation question to make clear to the world that Great Britain will no longer blindly follow. French di plomacy but is to strike out on a policy of her own.
 Phrasing Ambiguous
 "One of the main features of the Young plan," he said, lis the am- biguity of it's phrasing in certain parts which serves to conceal the real nature of many of it's conces- sions and especially aims to avoid woundng the susceptibilities of the United States government.
 "A connection not apparent on the surface but none the less real is established between German repara- tons and allied debt payments to the United States. The amount of the | German payments in the first place is determined largely by the amounts due from various allies to the United | States Germany gets pledge Of two thirds of the benefit of any debt | reduction which the United States may grant to the allies during the next 37 years and the benefit of any such reduction obtained by an allied l power after 37 years is pledged wholly to Germany
 Stipulation Important
 "A very important item in the Young plan which has not been gen. orally noticed is it's stipulation that the costs of the occupation of the Rhineland shall no come, out of the regular Young annuities. Financial arrangements on this point are to be made directly between govern ments concerned. since Germany Is not likely to agree readily to pay the expenses of a foreign army on her soil.
 Tt is to be hoped" he said that there will not result from the dis pute between England and France a failure of the powers to accept the Young plan. but it is not altogether to be regretted that at last a great power has challenged Frances lead ership in postwar European dlplo- macy.'

Wilbur's S TambOurine
Gone From Office;
Means He'll Quit

Naval officers and officials are
now convinced that they are to
have a new chief after March 4.
What is taken as evidence that
Secretary Wilbur does not expect
to remain in that particular
Cabinet job, is the fact that he
has removed from its place a
tambourine which has been In
an honored place in his private
office ever since he has been
Secretary of the Navy.
The tambourine is symbolic of
a famous high kick Wilbur made
while a midshipman at Annapolis.
When inquirers wanted to know
what it stood for, he said he had
kicked it at height Of 8 feet
while at the Academy in celebra-
ton of some student event.
The tambourine was placed at
exactly this height in the Sec
retary's office. Now it's gone.
