HIP POCKET FLASK
UNDER DRY REIGN
is ROAD TO PEN

Helena, Mont, Jan. 21.-UP-
Prohibition, increased narcotics
traffic and Flaming" youth
these are the three principal caus-
es of the alarming crime increase
in Montana which has boosted the
penitentiary population at Deer
Lodge to 667. +.
This is the frank opinion OF
Austin B. Middleton, prison ward
en-, following careful observation
and study of his charges. d
In most cases the road to the
penitentiary was the same. It com
menced with a hip pocket flass
bolstered by a flagrant contemp
of the prohibition law. Came tneI
narcotics of some sort-cocalne
heroin, morphine-and with 1t !
false courage that impelled ROD
berry or assault.
/ A majority of the Deer Lodg
penitentiary prisoners are youths.
The warden told of overcrowde
conditions in the prison; of how n
was compelled to double up to tax
care of the rapidly increasing mum
i Der of prisoners. "Needs for grea'
er and more modern accommoda
tions at the prison are apparent,
he said.

LIBRARY NOTES

One of the books which has been
purchased recently for the library
is William Beebe's "Jungle Peace. !"
This book is considered an addition
to genuine literature. Jungle
Peace is altogether an extraordln-1
ary book. 1t is one which lovers
of nature, and very good books,
will read and reread with delight.
Two other books new to your IL
brary are the "First and Second
Books of Operas" written by Kreh-
biel. He gives the plots and coun-
terplots of managers, rivals and
prima donnas. He gives, not mere
ly the arguments of operas, but ne
gives every important detail con-
nected with great performances or
great failures. These books should
be interesting to musicians and
non-musicians alike.
We have a new book on steam.
boats, "The Pageant of the Packet
bv Garnett Laidlaw Eskew. In
this book you are made to see ana
feel the whole life of the river, as
Mark Twain knew it besides ac-
ouiring an authentic picture OF the
River Packet. This is the first
real story of the Mississippi steam
boat as told by a steamboat enthu-
siast who knows and loves boats
Have you read the book by Low

ing bit OF human nature.
You do not laugh at cripple or
a blind man when he falls because
the poor fellow is already handi-
capped. He is humble. He makes
no pretenses. He does not chal-
lenge your sense of Importance.
There is no satisfaction in seeing
him suffer additional humiliation.
1t would be like hitting a fellow
when he's down or when he admits
he has had enough. There is no
object in continuing the fight when
your opponent says he's licked and
admits that you are the better
man.
The case is quite different with
a normal person who falls or is
otherwise placed in an embarrass-
ng position, provided the injury
is not serious. Usually your pride
is hurt lot more than your anat-
omy. When you are sprawled on
the ground you advertise TO all
observers that you are too stupid
to stand on your feet as a human
being should. And this is not the
sort of advertising you would de-
liberately broadcast. So you pick
yourself up as quickly as you can
and offer a sigh of relief that none
of your acquaintances saw you
fall.
Your humiliation is in direct ra-
ito to your dignity. If you happen
to be the boss in the office OF
shop your help will laugh all the
longer and louder-at your back
perhaps-because you are suppos-
ed to be a lot more dignified thar
any of them. They laugh wher
fall because they feel superior tt
you, at least for the moment. They
can hold their feet. You can't
That satisfies their sense of i'm
portance. 1t tickled their vanity

ing situation it is always som,
dignitary-the polcmean who
kicked and knocked down, tn
portly society woman whose costl,
robes are ruined by the careles
waiter spilling soup down he
neck.
Since most of us take ourselve
quite seriously and tote lot o
dignity about, we dislike to b
humiliated. We look around to sc
, if anyone saw US fall, because sue
an awkward situation calls for
laugh at our expense and we d
not care to be laughed at.

What's in Fashion?
Dos and DOn'ts for Large Women
; Drected bv AMOS PARRISH

NEW YORK, Oct. zI"-rhSn"
ion-analyze q group Of larger
women and you find
Some Of them let Fashion
help them not to look larger
Others make some avoidable
mistakes In clothes selection.
Result: They look larger.
When II they would join the;
first group, they could In many
cases look smaller.
Here are some suggested
dos" in dresses for larger
women-also some things to
avoid.
# we were looking for
dresses land were large we'd
look for:
% Vertical or diagonal lines
:. because they draw the eye
UP and down the figure instead
Of across. t2) Half belts
because they break the horizon
tai line at the waist. 90 Bloused
waistlineS j.. because they Gre
ate softness at the waist which
DISCUSSES the. difference in size
between that point and the
hip-line or bust.
(4) Front fullness in skirts
because 1t makes soft folds
which hide the size Of hips or
thighs. CD Plain sleeves that
are not too tight. because
too tight lines at any joint in
the large figure gives the feel
ing Of strain at the seams.
co Long tunicS because
they carry the eye up and down
the figure.
Things to Avoid
And we'd steer clear Of these
details, fashionable though they
are:
l. Horizontal lines, such as
square necklines. tuckings or
decorative Seamings be-
cause lines that go across the
figure seem to shorten 1t, and
because they draw the eye Of
the observer across the width
Of the body instead of UP and
down its height.
q. Wide sashes for the
same reason, and because they
add thickness to the waist and
hip sections.
TIGHT hate haoa,,rn
they emphasize any difference
in size between the waistline
and the hips or bust. 4. Jabots
because they add fullness
to the chest.
5. Cape effects -. because
they cut height and add weight
to the upper part Of the body.
.. PeplumS because their
flare adds width to the hips
and cuts the height.
Z. Skirts widely flared at the
sides. because they increase
the width of the figure. 8.
Sleeves with wide guantlet cuffs
or elaborate puffingS or flares
:. because. when the arm is
down, this makes more width at
the hipline.
Coats to Choose
In choosing a winter coat
we'd shop for:
l.. Straighter lire 'silhouettes
-. because they add height. 2.
Wide wrapoverS. because they
allow for adjustment to the fig.
ure. 3. Flat furs o. tightly
curled ones. because they add
nothing to the weight or full
ness Of the figure.
4. Long shawl collars. be-
cause they give another up
