rent military doctrine requires that the
soldier act largely on his own reSpon-
sibility. The more he knows, the
greater Is his value. The Army is
ceaselessly developing technicians, ra-
dio operators, musicians, cooks, chauf-
feurs, telephone men, cobblers, sad
dlers, steam filters, surveyors, avia-
ton mechanics and many others. This
process Is in progress continually
throughout the units Of the military
service, from Alaska to Panama, from
Porto Rico to the Philippines. Organ
izations have schools for the produc-
ton of their own specialists: posts
and stations conduct courses in gen.
eral education and the useful trades;
at certain centers of activity there are
established schools for instruction in
highly technical subjects.
The whole army educational system
is permeated with practically; ali sub
jects are taught by example and by
practice. Proficiency is demonstrated
not by grades and examinations, but
by sheer ability to perform the work
which is the subject of instruction.
The service schools for officers insure
high professional and technical quail
if1cations for both the line and the
staff.

Philip III Revealed
AS Labor Champion

Philip II. great Spanish monarch
whom historians have suspected even
OF such unnatural crimes as poisoning
his son, Don Carlos, and the prettiest
OF his wives, Isabel of Bourbon, is now
being viewed more favorably in the
light OF documents coming forth from
neglected archives. One of the MANY
curious facts discovered is that Phillip
centuries before its almost universal
legalization prescribed an eight hour
day for laborers in mines and fortif-
cations, four hours in the morning and
four in the afternoon, chosen the most
conveniently possible according to the
seasons. Moreover, by a decree issued
October 10, 1883, Philip ordered that
the laborers engaged in building the
Escorial Monastery, a monumental
work considered by the Spaniards the
eighth wonder of the world, should en-
joy 10 days holiday every year on fun
pay. The most advanced legislation in
Europe on the subject of holidays for
work people is believed to be that Of
Czechoslovakia, whose Parliament on
May l, 1925, voted a measure providing
for holidays for workers with a mini
mum of six and a maximum of eight
days per annum. Philip II was more
generous $50 years ago

stilled these whispers by reSuming his

of the $50 900, 900 relief loan. There

period. The reconstruction plan was
running year ahead of the schedule

The next year, in June, 1925, Just
when the Leagues financial plan had
provided that the budget should be
balanced, Hungary was in a position
to present request to the council of
the League that the period of control
be ended. And Mr.. Smith supported
the request. The budget had been bal

being maintained regllarly-and nearly
half of the total of the loan remained
untouched. So the League Of Nations
aSSented to the request, and control OF
Hungarian finances was relinuuiShed
again to Hungary herself, much earlier
than anticipated.
Then came the famous incident when
the Hungarian government offered to
jeremiah Smith its check in recon-
pense for his services.
"Give it to charity" said Mr. Smith.
But" demonstrated Count Bethlen,
"the vouchers are all entered and the
check has been issued"
"Re-enter it." said Mr. Smith, "aS a
gift from the American people"
II don't know just how much did
refuse" said Mr.. Smith later. THE
League of Nations and the Hungarian
government agreed on 5000 a month
to cover all costs, and stayed little
over two years. I stipulated would
take no salary, for when you are going
to work blue penciling other peoples
salaries you can't very well take big
one yourself. They asked me what they
should do with the salary; and told
them it was their money, the first they
had to spend, so they might as well do
as they liked. They asked II there
were any objections to using it as a
scholarship fund to send students to

So they did"
Count Bethlen offered to present to
Mr.. Smith a high decoration Of honor
as a sign of appreciation from Hungary.

never forgive you. Your friendship and
gratitude are more precious to me than
any decoration"

are qualified to know unerringly the

Obedience is necessary-let me
underline this to fundamental
laws; but it can't be considered by
any manner of means the sum total
of child training; not any more
than discipline in school is the sum

Obedience Isn't All
It is only the beginning.
However, as the question of obedi-
ence continues to be the most for

about it.
If you are having trouble with
Johnny or Mary now, I hope that
neither of them is much over 3
years old.

1.-The habit Of obedience should
be firmly established at 2 years, or,
at latest, years. A child should
begin to learn the meaning of no
at l year.
Training Your Child
Pretty young, isn't it! If parents
still are struggling with obedience
in children 7 or 8 years Of age, it
is a pity, but of course, it isn't
hopeless. The best way to get
around child, then, is to make the
disobedient one a friend, and gain
his trust and confidence.
He must develop a strong faith
in the fairness Of his parents. A
child of this age is a well-developed
human being and capable Of reas-
oning and Analysing to an amazing
degree.
He is quick to sense injustice and
keen to observe when his parents
are asking obedience without
reason. That is the best way-get
the cooperation of the child. And,
after all, it is the highest type Of
obedience, isn't it? The obedience
that understands is always the best.

Is
Security for
All Women
BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON.

BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON.
A well-known feminist, in cri-
ticism of marriage, contends that
it is state of slavery for both the
man and the woman.
She may be right so far as men
are concerned, but as for us, 1t is
our only safeguard.
Apropos of which I should like
to. recommend to all girls Leah Nor
tons book called, when Love
Comes to Women" Mrs Morton is
noted social service worker and
has seen at first hand how wretch
edly some of these new tangled
ideas work out
Those who preach against the
state Of marriage are the greatest
enemies of our sex. There may be
few independent souls who are
able to rise above all convention by
the very strength of their character,
but the average woman can not
do so.
For the most of us, there is always
the slavery of love, and the woman
who thinks she can remain happy
with the man of her choice outside
marriage is making for herself a
bed of thorns.
The normal woman is a rnonoga-
Che 11et1o 1iv wants fhP
passion of her life upon one man
and it is only after she loses him
that she becomes too generous with
her love. If she has not the pro-
lection of a wedding ring she will
live in constant fear.
Men who refuse to marry the
women they profess to love, usually
refuse to help bear the responsibility
of any children that may come from
the love union. Personally, I don't
believe that any man loves a woman
unless he is willing to marry her.
He may make protestations that
sound sincere, but after all, the
ultimate in love making is the pro-
poSal of marriage. Girls know this
irlStlnctlvely and when they argue
otherwise are merely arguing
against their own reason
Free love unions, companionate
marriages, all the various independ-
ent nostroms of the moderns are
dangerous things to play with. Their
freedoms usually result in the mans
being completely at liberty, while
the woman is bound with chains
that are as old as time and forged
by life itself.
Marriage, imperfect as it may be,
is our only security. 1t was evolved
after long centuries of injustice and
misery for women. Let us not be
deceived by the sound of the word
freedom" The only real freedom
a woman ever has is found within
the close circle of a wedding ring.

Front B7-in1
Is High ON
Paris Hats
BY FRANCES FACET.


NEW YORK, Aug, 3l.-Folowing
I'D the fashion which had its incep-
ton last year. that of wearing the
hat far back on the head, the Paris
milliners have sometimes gone to
extremes in the new hats by COM
pletely exposing the forehead, Not
only in turbans but in small
brimmed STYLES as we'll has this pre-
cedent been followed, so that the
little cloche of fall gains a new
line by having a little "kick-up' to
the brim.
Many of the imports show the
upturned front brim, but never in
a banal way. There is always some
little trick of twisting, turning or
folding the sides to give the effect
of a brim, which in this manipula-
ton droops low, gaining the face
framing silhouette
BrimlesS TurbanS Shown
Although many brimless turbans
are shown, there is a much larger
percentage of the toque to which
q cuff is applied so that the nece5-
sary width can be attained at the
sides.
In consequence, there is quite
little confusion as to the distinction
between a turban and a brimmed
hat. Many hats that are called
turbans have brinls so closely turned
up in a front cuff as to give the
turban line.
The longer back is very impor-
tant Just now and there are many
conflicting opinions regarding it.
Certainly the longer back effect is
to be incorporated in every hat.
that is, the back will be cut long
to fit snugly around the neck in
order that the hairline be com-
pletely covered This is even OBJ
served in the turbans where the
back comes down the hairline and
to lie partially on the neck.
Longer Back Suggested
In the brimmed shapes, however.
the longer back is, of course, much
more obvious and here too it is
made to fit as snugly around the
neck as possible so that it does not
interfere with the coat collar. Some
milliners have cut out little notch
directly at the back of the brim
so that the hat will fit more closely
and will be more comfortable.
The longer backline, which is
definitely here, is fostered by the
Observation-Disclosures skirts, the hat
silhouette following the hemline
just as much as it is possible to
do so. AS a consequence, the hat
becomes a frame for the face with
its shallow front line and long but
snug back.
