so much in favor for halls and dining
rooms, are not included in the fashion
being discussed, but papers of the
mural type, in which one whole side Of
room Is required to complete a pic
torial panel. On such paper pictures
and hangings would be superfiuous and
in bad taste. The paper itself is all
sufficient. Sometimes genuine muralS
are wall decorations.
Apart from these choice papers and
decorations which are beyond the
means of most home makers, there are
other patterned papers that are excel
lent. Old-fashioned reproductions of
geometric designs are in evidence, some
times in colors so soft and elusive that
they make excellent backgrounds. Many
of the quaint medallion papers are
coming to the fore. These may be in
Wedgewood style or more definitely
French.

dence in window displays and in pic.

If rooms are decorated in true modern

ably. They require careful study and
selection to prevent their clashing badly
with anything not so pronouncedly new.

Everyday Psychology
What You Remember.
sY Dr.. JESSE ". sPRowLs.


Most of your early memories are very
unreliable. because the facts get mixed
up with your feelings. You recall feel
ings father than actual facts.
THE pies that mother used to make"
are o good example. A healthy appetite
at the time constitutes the fact. The
satisfaction Of that appetite was the
foundation of your feelings.
Hhe average man In his SOS actually
believes the myth about the "old-fash-
ioned winters" Go to the files of the
Weather Bureau and get the facts. You
will be convinced that you tend to COM
bine in your memories two or three
Winters and then get the feeling that
every Winter was long and cold, with
lots of snow and much sled-riding.
While what you remember as facts
are really accumulated feelings, 1t does
not follow that these feelings are unim-
portant. One of the latest discoveries
in the field of psychology is that your
early memories have lot to do with
your mental health.
Many an abnormal fear Of lightning
of poison, of suffocation and the like
has been removed by getting at the
facts. Most Of your prejudices are
nothing but feelings that some one
helped you to create at a time when
you were unable to understand facts
for yourself.

Here is the cutest idea of the season
for the schoolgirl.
1t Is just as simple as can be.
Pleated, ruffiing gives emphasis to
the straight bodice In basque effect
that dips in pointed outline at the CEN
ter-front and the center-back. The
dainty rufning repeated at the hem
line, neckline and wrists, adds inter-
testing trimming note.
The medium used for this Frenchy
model is navy blue creepy wooden with
tiny red dots. The ruffiing Is plain blue.
Style No. 909 is designed for girls
of 6, 8, 10, IL and IA years.
It's very smart In brown and white
featherweight tweed In small, almost
invisible, check pattern. Cut the
rufding on the bias for contrasting
effect
Covert cloth, wool jersey rayon noy-
elites and the heavier weight cottpn
fabrics suitable.
Size years requires ia yards 80
inch. with 3% yards plating.
For q pattern of this style send Is
cents in stamps or coin directly to The

ninth street, New York.
We suggest that when you send for
this pattern, you inclose 10 cents ad-
ditional for copy of our new FAN

Jose pointed out that with the
coming of warm weather road
building agencies turn their at
tention to constructing. highways
and repairing roads that we're
damaged during the siege OF
winter. AS result, motorists
run into unexpected barriers such
as closed roads and detours. in
many instances necessitating long
trips for the return home. He
said:
"This is especially true be-
cause Of the fact that for short
weekend trips secondary or
country fOa0S are usually
selected. After months indoors
during the winter season, mo-
tOrists desire to penetrate the
country away from the bill
boards and congestion. 1t Is q
natural tendency for nature Is
most resplendent in early
spring and wild flowers are in
early bud.
"In many instances, these
roads through the countryside
are not adequately marked,
providing another handicap for
the car owner who travels with.
out advance information. There.
fore, the safe way, making for
. pleasant and comfortable

adequate details regarding the
points to be visited and how to
