Two Kinds of High Schools
Are Necessary in Every City

all who pass, Forever, never!
Never, forever!"
That is the experience of the
average American town today. Yet
except in very few states, the
exact position of the high school
as an economic entity has not been
defined.
High schools in general do not
make a point of college preparation
up to the place where students
without terrific struggle and extra
outside help can pass their college
boards" and get into the holy of
holes. Many of the schools do;
they have a special college prepara-
tory course, and earnest students
can pass the prohibitory board ex-
aminations from them.
But there is no fixed plan on this
score with high schools in general.
Strictly academic high schools could
give college preparation more time
and attention.

Minds
Keen, Vices
AYgAdUiSed
BY MARTHA LEE

A young man who looks at life
with his eyes open wants to know
what makes so many women solid
ify after they are married.
He says he has in his acquaint-
ance a number of married women,
women old enough to have been
married number of years and
group of young things just at the
age when tripping down the aisle
to the altar looks like the grandest
jaunt a girl can take.
And, according to this young man,
with the exception of one or two,
the married women have stopped
growing. (He means mentally, OF
course) They stopped growing, II
not Immediately after their mar
rage, at least after they have their
first children. -...-.
In most cases the husbands have
not stopped growing. They have
accumulated knowledge and poise
and character in the years that fol-
lowed their marriage. They have
broadened their interests. Their
horizons have widened. They have
reached mental plane that makes
it impossible for them to commu-
nicate only the most common place
ideas to their wives.
The young man goes on to say
that in the class Of maiden ladies
of the age of most wives the stu
alton is entirely reversed. These
women, for the most part, have adj
vanced mentally in proportion with
men. Their horizons are just as
wide, their interests as varied.
AS for the sweet young things our
correspondent has this to say. They
are so busy being coy and angling
for weak male who can be towed
down to the marriage license win
dow they haven't time to take any
interest in their mental growth.
The boy is pretty hard on us. But
youth is always vehemently praising
or decrying something. And yet, be-
hind all his oratorical outburst,
there is a lot of truth in what he
says.
Women do have a terrible habit
of "solidifying" after marriage. They
have way of being keen until they
have gotten their men. From then
on it seems to be a question OF TAX
ing things easy.
What the boys wants to know is
how do the men stand to spend
the rest of their days trying to make
conversation with a woman whose
whole interest in life consisted OF
what the cook did and what Mrs.
So-and-So said about Mrs. Whoozis
and what the score was that after
noon in bridge.
Women aren't all that way. The.
maiden ladies keep up because they
have to. It's part of the game of
continuing to be interesting. Loads
of women have "one-track" mind,
that causes them to be completely
engulfed with their homes and chill
dren and dWarfs all other topics of
conversation until they seem hardly
worth mentioning.
There are wives whose main OBJ
iect in life is to keep themselves
interesting to their own husbands.
It has become part of the job Of be-
ing married. It has It's place, of i'm
portance along with keeping house
and cooking. ~, IL
The sweet young things are not as
bad as the boy paints them.
They are smart enough to know
that the business Of being married
and staying married is becoming
more of job every day.
And they are starting in with a
good chance for success simply be-
cause they have seen that the
stopping of mental growth is deadly
to marriage.

BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON

I am greatly in favor of two
kinds of high schoolS-an academic
school that shapes its entire course
toward college preparation and the
one that teaches vocation and
trade.
It seems to be inevitable. There
won't be any straddling this ques-
ton much longer. It's been facing
us for long time. Now it is here.
True. many of the larger cities
have had their speciality high
schools for some time, but smaller
cities keep on building mostly with
one idea in mind-to take care of
increasing population and the
greater number of children in
school.
One City Has Troubles
A typical case of this school
question came to my attention in
one of the smaller cities recently.
Not a great number of years ago
in this city of 10000 there was no
high school building at all. Upper
classes met in special rooms in the
grade school and called themselves
high school classes. Then the town
dug down in its jeans and built a
million-dollar high school.
The citizens thought that their
children and their grandchildren
were fixed for life The new school
was pointed out to all visitors,
proudly, along with the court
house and the new viaduct.
Soon Is OutgrOwn
But time goes on and not back
ward. nor alas, does it stand still.
In eight years contractors were
called in from points distant to
bid on a new high school.
The old one wa turned over to
the eighth graders as Junior high,
and a two or three million dollar
structure that rose on the rest Of
the city block so overShadowed the
old one that it was Just too bad.
It was built almost over the dead
bodies of some OF the DIRECTORS
who shouted that this education
business had gone just too far.
Again the citizens cogitated
over the prospect of reduced taxes,
but now the school board has
bought another city block twice
as big as the first and soon the
sound Of the steam shovel will be
heard again making the world all
smoky but safe for education.
Taxpayers Are Wrathy
The taxpayers are shouting, VIII
il never Stop?" And the old clock
on the courthouse crosses itself and
signs alas with sorrowful voice to

Vogu ne for
Color NOzU
OUerbLayed
BY JEAN PATOU,
written for NEA Service

PARIS. July 4.-There are few
dresses more attractive. from a
color point Of view, than a per-
fectly conceived gown Of printed
fabric on a hot summers day.
The attraction that color exer-
cises over every Rnman easily ex-
plains the tremendous vogue that
printed fabrics Lave enjoyed for
many seasons nov but as with all
successful details of fashions, these
prints now have become altogether
too popular.
The weli-dressed woman has
reached the point today where she
hesitates, in the selection Of her
summer wardrobe as to wehether
she viii allow herself to be capti-
waited once more by some Of the en-
trancing color schemes some of
them offer.
Three seasons ago, she would not
have hesitated one moment.
A Versatile Costume
A printed mousseline frock is
suited to all summer functions, but
1t fits in especially well with the
background afforded by such places
as the race course, the polo ground
and garden fetes.
In spite Of the almost infinite
variety of designs offered women
during the course of the seasons,
the general trend today is distinct
" toward a greater moderation
both in design and color, or else.
with some models, the printed
fabric is used to Offset its line and
intricacy Of cut.
The over-large floral design hav-
ing by now become over popular in
the ready-to-wear class Of dress,
I never use any but the most dis
Greet and even sober designs, fea-
turing two or at most three diff
ferent colors or shading effects.
Monotony Easily Relieved
The only danger in the use of this
type Of print is that the result
might be monotonous, but this Is
easily and effectively remedied by
the adjunct of linge-i- touches at
the neck and sleeves. which immedi-
ately "dress" a model
To satisfy at one and the same
time the desire expressed by some
women for plain afternoon frocks,
yet possessing the attractions Of
gaily printed material, found that
the adjunct of a colored kerchief
and a hat of the same material was
one way to solve this problem.
In this case. floral designs are
taboo, but polka dots are most effec-
tive, care being taken that all Access
series harmonic with the color
scheme.
Collar Is Helpful
For example, a simple white aft
ernoon gown Of geOrgette acquires
tremendous chic and a touch of
color by the addition Of a scarf
collar of sheer white linen with
large black polka-dot which also
formed the hat brim.
The use of lace for afternoon
dresses can only result in the most
formal of models. There are two
or three such creations in my pres
ent collection. but they cannot
and should not be considered indi-
cative of a future mode.
They merely I'LL the need that
smart woman has Of one extremely
dresSy afternoon gown for soil
tary but very formal affair during
the summer.
There is no medium like lace, Of
course. to impart that dresSy look
to a toilette and I invariably adj
wise it for such special occasions.

PARIS, July 4.


ATOW is the time to mention the
L Importance of lace. We are
more or less used to the idea Of lace
for informal evening gowns, and
this season, incrusted as they are
with f1lmy chiffon, they are softer
and lovelier than ever.
But who would have expected a
bundle of black lace suddenly to
become tailleur! Perhaps no one.
But Ardanse, that Incompatible
couturier, has fashioned delightful
afternoon tailleur of black lace,
with charm she puts in a draped
white georgette vestee, as well as
elbow ties with long flowing ends.
And one of the daintiest, most
elegant pajamas that ever has
caught our eye or taken away our
breath in all Paris is the lace paja-
ma created by this same couturier.
I couldn't possibly tell you where
there's gore and where there's a
seam, or how it buttons-if it but
tons at all-or even a single solitary
technical detail about it.
All I am aware of is it's graceful
ness, it's elegance, its ravishing
softness- and that it has flower
bouquet on the shoulder, and satin
ribbon at the waist.

PEACE-TIME WORK ARMY
FAVORED BY DR.. ELY
Economist Urges Organization
Along Military Lines to Block
Unemployment.

Discussing Hard Times; the Way
In and the Way Out" DR.. Richard r.
Ely, economist, in a lecture believed at
the Graduate School of American Uni
versity last night recommended a ma
tional peace time army of working men
organized along military lines, with
permanent, paid, skeleton organization
in each State, which would prepare
plans Of work and be ready to take i'm
mediate steps to relieve unemployment
at any time the need arises.
IF appropriations were passed and
ready for the call Of an emergency, both
State and National organizations could
go into action on "a hours notice to fur
nish employment to those in distress, /"
declared DR.. Ely. GAS the Red Cross Is
always prepared to act Immediately to
relieve suffering, so the peace-time
army would be ready to relieve unem-
ployment"
Cutting fire lanes through State and
National forests and cleaning out under
brush as q means of fire prevention,
cleaning up recreational lands and
along the shores of streams and lakes,
especially areas surrounding city water
supply storage reservoirs, and work on
public highways are among the items
OF work suggested as being always i'm
mediately available and Of great pub
