Parents Are
Better Than
EUe1" Before
Ry MRS. WALTER FERGUSON

In spite Of the fact that We never
have had so much free advice ABOUT
rearing children. so many minds
studving our problems, or so much
research into the child nature, par
ents. we are told, are worse than
thew ever have been before. T@ey
are the greatest failures Of the
modern world.
Thunders from platforms and pull
Dit assure us that the main thing
wrong with the country is father
and mother. An avalanche of lit
erature deluges us and a voice per-
petually is crying, Wolf, wolf.
Parents. as we knoWs are just
plain folks. This is the reason why
ne can't find perfect ones. Nor viii
the ardors Of reform improve us.
You can't have good parents until
YOU have a good citizenship.
Some people seem to believe, how
ever. that when a woman has had
child she undergoes a marvellous
transformation and becomes a diff
erent creature. Parenthood does
add responsibilities. III admit. But
to the person who does not take to
responsibility, what's baby more
or less?
Parents are Better.
I believe that parents are better
today than they have ever been
before. They have more sense about
feeding and caring for their chill
dren. They take their job seriously
and most Of them are concerned
gravely about the future of their
families.
In those olden times which we
praise 50 warmly. children we're
born in droves and reared by good
luck. In the household which
boosted a dozen or fifteen. how
could a mother give personal at
tention to each? She did not. They
grew up as best they could. But
We hear only of the few who made
good and not of the thousands who
did not.
Children are not like they used
to be But. then, neither are men
and women, customs, travel. dress,
smusements. or social activities.
Puzzle for Mother.
The modern mother finds herself
in her present quandary, l am con-
vinced. chiefly because so many peO-
pie are telling her what to do. And
she is confronted by a great fear.
She hears from all sides that she
is failing, that she can't help but
fail
THUS she is taught to anticipate
not success, but failure.
Why not encourage the modern
mother as much as the modern
child? She needs some boosting in
stead of so many knocks.

- important place in British
life that it is not surprising we
find in England sports wear
developed to high point Of
attractiveness and practicable
ity.
A recent visit to London con-
WINGED us that silks and especially
the tussore silks, will be very popu-
lar for summer wear of this type.
The sheer wool fabrics are also
strong, and one enticing outfit OF
ondamoussa had a short fared skirt
in an off-white tint and a jumper
of canary yellow. At the hipline
was embroidered a whole row OF
teeny tennis rackets in black and
green yarn.
GONE of the models conserve the
~ straight line dear to the Paris
creators of sports wear by using
myriad pleats in the skirt, while
others had a flared skirt OF great
width. These latter are particularly
popular, more especially because the
absence of pleats means much less
frequent trips to the cleaners.
Very short jackets of fuzzy wooden
material are popular for wear with
these sport dresses. One Of these
was of white angora. with crochet
edging and wool embroidery on the
pockets. A matching white beret
with a bit of the crochet completed
the outfit. BeretS are very popular,
especially in plaids, and many Of
them have matching sports socks, a
very attractive combination.

ELEGANTLY and languidly. yet
Il with a determination typically
Partisan, the Haute Couture has
turned its attention to sports wear
of a truly sports type-that is, lines
and styles for shooting, for polo,
etc.
The polo clothes are almost ex-
actly like the suits worn by men for
this sport. The white helmet, the
knitted shirt and vest or the plain
white riding shirt, and the white or
tan hreeches and field boots are
all parts of this outfit.

A perfect example of Redfern ele-

Consolidation Sought; Win
In Past Election Said
Not Accident

WASHINGTON, March 7.-(P)-
Victories by the republican party in
the one-time solid South" are
seen by leaders, not as political &C
ridents, but as gains to be CONSOLE
dated.
After a session here by the ex-
ecutive body Of the republican ma
tional committee, Chairman Hubert
Work announced the party would
exert every influence within its
power not only to make these re-
suits permanent but to encourage
and build up virile and militant
party organizations throughout the
southern states"
With the announcement went the
statement that this decision was in
response to demands from virtually
every southern state ito become
permanently identified with the
republican party"
However, no attempt was made
at the meeting to settle the con-
tests w the posts of the national
committeeman and national COM
miteewoman from Georgia. A res
olution was adopted thanking t.
Coleman Dupont for his services as
national committeeman from Della
ware but no sucessorc was named
to the post from which he re-
signed. DR.. Work was authorized
to settle the controversy in Alaska
over members of the national com
mittee.
