AND YOUR
MONEY
Buying A Home
(Bv John P. Mullenl

(By John z. Mullen)
After an individual has acquired a
sizable liquid reserve in savings
account, and has satisfied his present
needs in the matter of life insurance,
his next logical step, if he mas a
family, is the acquisition of home.
For a great majority of men with
dependents home is a very real in
vestment. In terms of family pro-
lection, comfort and peace of mind
it pays very satisfactory dividends.
More than that, it develops 4 sense
of responsibility, encourages thrift
by compulsory saving, teaches econ
omy, and makes for better citizen
ship by giving the individual a real
stake in the community in which he
lives. For these returns a home of
your own should be an early consid-
GRAFTON.
The first logical step toward home
ownership, after you have decided
whether to build or to buy, is obv.-
ously a careful estimate of the
amount you can pay for this invest
ment. It is impossible to set up ar
bitrary standards. Tastes and living
standards differ. Abilities to save
consistently differ. Two families of
the same range of income may differ
in the amount they can afford for
shelter. One family may prefer an
automobile to a high priced home.
Another may deny itself luxuries to
live in an exclusive residential sec
ton. In each case the financial OBJ
legation a family is able to assume in
the purchase of home is directly
determined by highly personal fac
tors.
There are, however, several COM
nonsense yardsticks in this matter
which the prospective home owner
may we'll keep in mind. Some au-
thorities estimate that the value of
ones home should be two or two
and one-times ones annual income.
According to that standard home
e valued at $4,000 could be purchased
on an income from $4,000 to $4,000.
Other authorities claim that an indi-
vidual's expenditure for shelter can
safely be One-fourth his income.
Then, the individual whose income is
$4,000 annually can afford $500 a
year for shelter. Since the annual
rent for home is about 12 per cent
of it's value, an individual with an
income of $4,000 can afford a home
valued at about $500. This would
lead us to the conclusion that a man
can afford a home of the value of a
house he can afford to rent provided
he can save consistently.
A correct estimate of the Obliga-
ton family can assume in the pur-
Shase of a home is a very important
matter. Too frequently it is made
without straight thinking and thor
oughness. AS a result families Of
ten burden themselves beyond their
means, and find to their sorrow that
when they are unable to meet fur
ther payments they are in danger of
losing all they have invested.

Prejudice Is
CHARGED to
Woman Vote
BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON

BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON
"You can't get out the woman
vote" walls disgruntled politician,
unless they're against something.
They never get a constructive view
of anything and fight for it. They
vote by prejudice and not by in
telligence."
Then he proceeds to nullify every
thing he's said by this remark,
Practically every woman votes ex-
actly like her husband or some
other man in her family"
Why then, does the gentleman
complain? What's he kicking about?
According TO his theory, If women
vote exactly like their men and the
men use only their brains, it looks
like we ought to have a perfect
government in this country.
And it would seem that women,
even though they fail to utilize
their own intelligence in voting. but
do even better and employ that of
men, should be complimented for
their brilliant aStutenesS.
AS you may have surmised, my
fair friends, this is all the bunk.
The reason this particular politician
is wailing is not because the women
vote like men, but because he is
beginning to fear that they will
not do so.
Whenever you hear this kind of a
story from the lips of a seasoned
political veteran, you can guess that
the women are going to be unman-
ageable. This really is the only
thing that upsets him.
The entrance Of women into poll
tics has provided the men with an
other good alibil. When the pre-
cinctS don't fall in line, when the
caucus fails to function, when all
the best laid plans go awry, the
political leaders always can lay
thing on to the women. He can
throw up his hands and give out
an interview in which he tries to
analyze the feminine complex at
the polls.
But watch this: So long as the
majority Of women vote the way he
votes he cant say enough about our
intelligence. 1t is only when we
vote the other way that he becomes
concerned about our incapacity.
And which ever way things go, he
figures always that our only politi-
cal reward should be the privilege
of casting ballot.

Sport Garb
Fashioned
OfJerSeo
BY JOHN WHITE
United Press Staff Correspondent

PARIS, Sept. 11.-For school girls
or young girls, Jennys sports things
seem especially appealing, being de-
signed deliberately to attract atten-
ton away from the game wherever
sports fans gather.
They were made of heavy sweater
knit jersey cloth, in definite colors
and with striking lines in the cut.
One Of the most unusual OF these
sports things was "Chiquito" of gray
ribbed sweater jersey, trimmed with
a more loosely knit bright green
which made the large scarf down
one side of the short jacket, and
turned back into large cuffs as well.
The gray tam o. shanter was
trimmed with the same green.
Club" of brown knit jersey with
big blue polka dots had this same
wide characteristic scarf trim, and
a bag of the dress fabric; while
"Algerienne" of black jersey used a
red, beige and bright blue striped
scarf-the matching bag also Of this
striped wool.
Capelet Cuff Used
On some Of Jenny's sports dresses
and suits a tiny capelet cuff-some-
times coming in pairs-was set onto
the sleeve. while scarcely any sleeves
of afternoon gowns were plain, the
capelet or capelet cuff always pre-
sent at shoulder, elbow, or just be-
low the elbow.
DRESSER daytime suits. made Of
soft, shiny materials like broad
cloth, usually had short belted
Jackets of lighter color than the
skirt.
Here again the sleeves nearly al
ways were decorated with the
capelet or a brief upside-down cuff
set on some upper part of the
sleeve.
often Jenny's suits used short
jacket Of galliac or breitschwantz OF
lighter tone than the skirt, and
very tailored. Many black jersey
dresses were shown with short, or
quarter length clipped for
coats.
Coat Has Collegiate Look
This quarter length coat
had very young, collegiate look. 1t
was faily we'll nodded at the waist,
belted with leather, and had a far
ing, full skirt.
One of these, called petit Fills"
(little SOM was cut from black gal
llac and had full, bell-shaped sleeves
of beaver to above the elbow. 1t
fastened at the throat with beaver
cravat tie.
Many muffs were shown, and sew
eral sleeves on evening coats, Or vel
vet suits, had round muff Like cuffs
of long fur, sometimes set midway
between elbow and wrist.
An interesting suit with Russian
lines was "Cossak," black with round
chinchilla muff, a Russian blouse
coat, and a round Russian cap OF
chinchilla.
Beaded blouses were often shown
with formal suits; satin with silk
lingerie trimming, with street suits.
One of the most attractive beaded
models was Mon Begun" (my
crush) of pink beads, with small
cape collar decorated by silver bow
knot of beads.

HenuIine Is
Stiffened in
NezC GO7ev1S
BY FRANCES PAGET
Copyright. 1880, by Style Sources


When Chanel inaugurated a few
seasons ago the happy custom OF
stiffening the hemline of evening
gowns, she contributed a crisp styl-
ing that this season has staged a
definite revival.
We have talked endleSsly about
the long limbed silhouette, which
more often of late has been allied
with hemlines that are slinky and
swirl about the ankles and feet, and
now with equal emphasis we can
discuss the stiffened hemline, which
is closely related to the "petticoat"
silhouette.
One of the most feminine and
also one of the "prettieSt" stiff hem
line fashions is concerned with or
candle, which is chosen to fashion
an entire under-section of frock,
following the same definite shaping,
and creating crisp, faring line
at the hem.
Frocks of this genre often are de-
veloped in sheer velvet, in black
with the petticoat in white or flesh.
Also in the crisp mode are other
frocks developed in lace or velvet
and posed over taffeta foundations,
the silk not only gaining the de-
sired bouffant quality at the hem
line, but at the same time provid-
ing pleasant swish, and reminding
one of other days when silk petit
coats were the fashion.
This crisp finish to the skirt still
is achieved by the use of horsehair
or crinoline to stiffen the hemlines
Of lace frocks, and occasionally a
horSehair braid band is employed
as a border for chiffon frock.
