GIRLS AREDECOY
IN HOLDUP
Buw nO @SSb

Police authorities of Fairfax
county, Va, are today conducting
q systematic search for four men
who last night held up John
Vaughan, of the 1900 block Of
e st. N. E., and w. M. Clapp,
of the 1900 block B st. s. E.,
while they were sitting in a
parked auto with two girl COM
panions in Fairfax county.
The victims told police that
they picked up" the girls in an
Alexandria restaurant and drove
to a lonely road where they
parked their machine. A few
minutes later a car drove up
containing four men. One of
them produced a pistol and CON-
manded Vaughan and Clapp to
"throw them up."
After obtaining $27 in cash
from the victims, the hold-up
men, in company with the girls,
departed. According to Vaughan
and Clapp their girl companions
and the four men were evidently
acquainted. It is thought by
police that the "girl friends" were
accomplices of the quartet.

Everyday Psychology
Experiments With Language.
By DIR. JESSE W. sPRowLs.

=
It is really very hard for us to under
stand how important language is in
everyday life; how we have grown up
in it and with it so completely that we
rarely stop to think of its place in the
reception and expression of ideas. Try
the following experiments:
1. Undertake an ordinary conversa-
ton with some one. But stop to think
of every word before you use it. This
experiment ought to teach you what it
means to be child, Just learning to
talk.
2. Attempt to carry on q conversation
with friend using nothing but gestures.
Try the same experiment with q COM
parative stranger. Then try it with a
total stranger. This experiment will
help you realize how a foreigner feels
as he tries to get along in a country
where no one speaks his language. You
may also go back in your imagination
to prehistoric man. Perhaps you will
appreciate the service that was done
you by those who lived at least a million
years ago.
8. Place q piece of carbon paper, face
up, under sheet of paper and write a
few sentences. You have then on the
underSide of the paper what is called
'mirror-script." Now hand the two
scripts to two different persons TO read.
Keep exact time on them. The difference
in time between their readings will tell
you something of the difficulties a child
has in learning to read.

PRECIOUS BOON

Where peace is found prevailing, all
human Ills disperse, there is no sound
of wailing, and no one stops to curse.
A little fuss has started full oft, bitter
fight, and voters, heavy-hearted, would
wrangle day and night A fuss between
two netghbors begins, some trifling
way; and people quit their labors TO
view the futile fray. At first they are
impartial, amused, serene they stand,
and watch the doings martial, but do
not take hand. Then some one
throws q bowlder that lands on Jasper
Jones; he strikes out from the shoulder,
intent on breaking bones. The man he
hits gets ratified, and strikes out left
and right, and soon the towns embat-
tied, all take part in the fight. I've
seen a town divided for years by war
ring lads, until 1t was decided by self
respecting grads. Oh, there was always
action on pugilistic lines. and faction
swatted faction, and preachers biffed
divines. And men in all their journeys,
expected wrath and strife, and lawyers
punched attorneys, the baker beat his
wife In Winter and in Summer men
played the same old tricks; the tailor
chased the plumber and pelted him with
bricks. The hatred was contagious, 1t
would not fade away, and doings most
outrageous were chronicled each day.
And when the feud had lasted for
years without a pause, men said they'd
be dodgasted If they could name the
cause. You start little wrangle with
one you don't admire; perhaps you try
10 n1angle his whiskers in your ire; and
naaybe you are staging feud that will
rot die q fight that will be raging 10

! one can have dainty things without
| greater cost than as If they lacked this
element Also it is possible to enjoy
pleasures through the five senses with
out necessarily spending any money.
| Often there is a whinsy that tickles
ones senses and causes merriment.
There is nothing practical or essential
about it. Therefore it becomes a luxury,
dainty thing.
One woman of my acquaintance made
patterns from different-colored match
| tips when arranging matches In boxes.
| 1t was a form of luxury. Every one was
amused who saw the gay star of red
surrounded by white in round match
box which she trimmed with blue
| matches. 1t was q source of endless
comments. 1t made conversation at
| times when the humor of an occasion
needed Frightening up. The arrange
ment was dainty. It took time to do,
| but the time was not wasted for the ar
rangement was made when she was
resting. Since she found pleasure in
making the design, the work did not
| interfere with her relaxation. When
she found that others enjoyed her han
diwork as well as herself she made an
other design. It was fun-a luxury.
One woman, who had lived a great
deal abroad, enjoyed the custom of
having breakfast in bed. When she
lived in her apartment at home she
continued to indulge in the luxury.
She would prepare her own tray the
night before, and such food as she
wished, such as sliced orange or some
fruit, and set the marmalade jar beside
her plate on the tray. She put the
cream in the pitcher OH the ice, and
measured out the coffee and put it In
the percolator, carefully covering the
open spout to prevent the flavor
evaporating.
In the morning she would set the
coffee on the range to percolate, and
put the edibleS on the tray with the
toaster on a table by the bed. When
the coffee was ready she would have her
breakfast in bed comfortably, getting
practically the same luxury by so doing
as when she was served abroad. There
was no expense. No extra time nor
money was required, yet she luxurtated.
Each person has a pet luxury. 1t Is
we'll to see If 1t cannot be enjoyed with
out extra coSt-if one has to be thrifty.
BY good management, and perhaps a
little extra time which will prove well
spent, many busy homemaker can In
dulge herself in such luxury. It
should be remembered that luxury and
the spending of money are not neceS-
sarily bound together. Luxury really
has nothing to do with price. 1t Is a
sensation gained which may or may not
be expensive.

Veal Gnnlaah.

Cut into inch-size dice from one 10
two pounds of lean veal from the upper

Cucumber Jelly.

Crate enough cucumbers to make
two cupfuls of pulp, grating the skin
also, but large seeds should be sifted
out. Season with two tablespoonfuls Of
white vinegar or lemon juice, half a
teaSpoonful of salt and o sprinkle of
white pepper. Hydrate two tablespoon
fuls of gelatin in a little of the liquid
from the grated cucumbers, dissolve by
standing in hot water and add to the
pulp. If the green color is not bright,
it may be deepened by the addition of
spinach green or a little green vegetable
coloring. This jelly may be nodded in
small cones or timbale shapes, or in
tiny molds to represent four-leaf clo-

Your Baby and Mine
BY MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED.

For those early Autumn days when
the young miss and master embark on
their school career, their wardrobes Of
fer few problems. The washable clothes
which have carried them through the
Summer will suffice for the first month
or so. The usual costume consists of
washable suits for Johnny In quantities
to keep him clean, and washable dresses
for Sally with washable boomers to
match. A heavy sweater for cooler
days, the raincoat, hat, rubbers and
umbrella for those inevitable rainy
mornings will be all that Is necessary
up to November.
From then on throughout the Winter
the young misses clothes 60 amusingly
adult. Even if she is only there are
washable jersey outfits that in proper
sizes would be appropriate for her
mother. They consist of plated jersey
skirts, and matching cardigan jacket,
buttoning right down the front For
wear with these are washable blouseS,
as simple or as elaborate as one desires,
or, for colder days, a white jersey Slip
over sweater of diminutive size. These
dresses are the incest of choices for
those cold mornings when it seems
nothing short of cruel to send O child
out in cotton dress.
The small boy for the colder DAYS
wears flannel shorts Of dark colors and
washable blouses or shirts. On cold
days he too wears sweater over his
shirt and both boys and girls wear
socks, or long-ribbed Isle thread hose
OF dark colors and low shoes. On in
clement Fall days they don rubbers and
on cold days, galoshes are still In high
favor.
Underwear shows decided, modern
changes. I couldn't find a suit of long
sleeved, 1ong-legged union suits of the
type with which most mothers are
familiar. Instead the new type union
suits, for both boys and girls, are Of
four Observation-Disclosures, knitted cot
ton, heavier weight cotton, light silk
and wool, or cotton and wool. They
have buttons down the front of suf-
ficient size for each child to dress and
button himself up.
There are no sleeves and the knees
are OF two types, the French" knee,
which is very, very short, and the
cuffed knee, which is suitable with long
hose for the boy or girl who Is always
cold.
Sister wears washable knitted silk or
rayon boomers in shades to match her
dresses and they are exactly like her
mothers with rubber at the waist and
knee and nary a buttonhole anywhere.
Clothes for the modern child are
made with the knowledge that our
modern houses are much hotter than
those of previous generations.
Children should learn to dress them
selves; therefore clothes should have
the fewest of buttons, which should be
large and easily reached, and as many
of the garments as possible should be
Of the Slip-on variety.
We offer a brand-new leaflet suggest
ing the full list of garments which will
suffice to carry the child through the
Fall and Winter school season. It will
suggest to mothers some q the neces-
stiles which may not occur to her until
the morning they are to be used. Self
addressed and stamped envelope il all
that is necessary to get Boys and Girls
