Even Hemlines Used on
New Ankle-Long Skirts

Ankle-long skirts with even hemlines
are sponsored by Paris dressmakers
who make styles as well as clothes.
The dizzy hemlines of the past are
Strengthening up little, and wise
ones expect them to be definitely on
the way in very short time.
Hemlines which lift in the front and
dip to the floor behind are stamped
"Iast season. by Partisan opinion.
The higher the skirt lifts in front the
more out of date 1t looks, and, con-
trariwise, the longer the skirt is In
front the newer it appears.
One or two novelty-seeking design
ers have reversed last seasons order
and created evening gowns which
touch the toes in front and lift half
way to the knees in back. These mod
els are not taken seriously, however,
and the general trend is not affected
by them.
Afternoon ensembles are radically
longer and also tend to even hemlines
at ankle lengths. Paris makes a dis
tinction these days between 70 to g.
ensembles and clothes for wear from
to 5. The rule is simple:
1.-THE later the hour the longer the
skirt"

Do you slap your child to make him
keep away from the vacuum cleaner?
Or do you teach him how to run it?
Do you scold your child for taking
dishes from the table? Or do you
show him how to handle dishes with
out breaking them?
Do you punish children for being
slow and untidy? Or do you practice
with them dressing and toilet duties,
under a time limit?
Do you punish children for getting
their clothes dirty when playing? Or
do you realize that play is more i'm
portant for them than keeping clean?
Very few parents in this day and
age refuse TO allow either their sons
or daughters to learn to drive an au-
tomobile. Yet they should have a
proper interest in seeing to it that
their children keep their car-driying
proclivities within certain sane and
reasonable limits.
1t is quite legitimate for a mother
to feel that she needs to get away
from her children occasionally. They
also are all the better for being away
from her. After short separation
from each other, the mother and chill
dren find new interest and new tol.
erance for each other. In an increas-
ing number of communities nursery
school or cooperative nursery offers
an opportunity for this sort Of per-
sonal holiday.
The old disciplinary way of bringing
up children was never good, because
it did not take into account the nature
Of boys and girls. Yesterday, boys
believed in their rights" as much as
they do today, but they had to use
their privileges of 'self-determination"
when out of sight of stern parents.
Now conditions have changed.
There is popular belief that if the
hair is shampooed frequently the
natural oil in the ducts around the
hair follicles will dry and the hair
fall out. This objection may be met,
however. by applying liquid vaseline
or hot oil the night before shampoo.
1t should be rubbed well into the scalp
and allowed to dry in so that some
of 1t remains to supplement the nat
ural oil even after washing.
In home where there is baby it
is problem to know where to hang
the tiny garments washed daily. A
solution is offered by a clothes-tree
which furnishes space equal to forty
feet of clothesline even while it takes
only three feet of floor space. When
closed it may be put out of the way
In corner.

Dark Hosiery Is Most
Popular With Dark Frock

Shoes and hose must be more care
fully considered when destined to ac-
company the new costumes. Longer
skirts lose their grace when teamed
with low heels and too light hose.
The opera pump or the street shoe
with high spike, or medium high
heel, is considered the most appro-
pirate with present styles. Straps en-
nance the slender foot, but the opera
pump with high spike or medium
high appears to lengthen the lines of
the ankle and foot and tends toward
nicer proportion between the hem Of
the skirt and the shoe.
Dark costumes require dark hose,
for the reason that there is thus no
definite break between the shoe and
the hemline. A graceful flow of line
is to be desired this season, and to
achieve this dark shades in. hose are
best. m

absorb these and carry them away,

PABST EQU|PS
NEW BEER PLANT
Milwaukee Brewer Forecasts
Legal Manufacture and
Plans Accordingly.
BY the Associated Press.

OCONOMOWOC, Wis, october IA
Fred Pabst, ST., head of the Milwaukee
brewing concern bearing his name, yes
terday announced that nearly 81 ,000,-
900 worth of equipment for making le-
galized beer is being installed in his
company's plant.
Theme equipment will be held in
readiness to start the manufacture Of
beer on short notice, he said 1t Is
being housed in building unused since
prohibition, remodeled for the purpose.
1T Is a risk, know" Mr.. Pabst said.
However, public opinion is a pretty
good barometer. 1t Is my own flrm
opinion that beer will return in the
not distant future, and am willing to
take the chance-so willing, in fact,
that l have staked almost 81 900 900
pared"
Mr.. Pabst declared Americas ma
tional economic structure would be
strengthened with the return of beer.
He cited pre-prohibition figures on the
brewing industry to support his con-
tention, stating:
THE normal yearly production of
beer before prohibition was about 50,-
00O, 900 barrels. To make this approx
imately $4,000 bushels Of grain were
required. Some 100000 men were

alone, with an additional $4,000 or
more directly dependent upon it. This
number included clerical forces, box
makers, coopers, label printers, bottlers
and those in allied lines.
About $1,000 members of the build
ing trades also indirectly owed their
living to brewers and there were other
tens of thousands who looked to the in
dustry in one way or another for bread
and butter"
Just how the change in the present
law is to be brought about, If and when
such a change is made, Mr.. Pabst de-
clared matter for the Federal Gov
eminent alone to decide. He added:
1T will be a simple matter and could
be accomplished overnight If Congress
will agree to modification of the Vol
stead act. That is all that Is required"

DIAMOND SHOOTING
STILL IS MYSTERY
Second Young Woman In

Takes Turn for Worse.

NEW YORK, October 14.-Activities
which brought second young woman
into the case found police today nc
Diamond than when he was found in a
hotel Sunday with five bullet wounds in
his body
The wounded gangster, after a day In
which he rallied from the effects of his
wounds, took a sudden turn for the
worse early today Hospital attendants
said he became restless and complained
of being in great pain. Hypodermics
were administered to quiet him.
the fragments of evidence which had
been gathered indicated Diamond had
been shot by members of his own gang
and not by rival gangsters.
Jean Nash, formerly owner of a
beauty parlor in Newark, NJ j., was the
second girl to be questioned. She was
brought in after police received an
anonymous telephone call saying she
had been heard to say in a West Fifty
second street grill last week that Dia-
mond had less than 10 days to live
She denied knowing Diamond or any
of the other persons mentioned in the
case and vehemently denied making
any statement regarding Diamonds ex-
pectancy of life. Police released her
after four hours questioning.
Efforts were redoubled today to To-
cate Jacob Ginsberg, manager of the
Monticello Hotel, where Diamond was
shot by two men who came into his
room as he sat on the edge of his bed
Sunday forenoon. Ginsberg, who has
been described as a close friend of Dia-
mond, disappeared after having the
wounded gangster taken into the Gins
berg suite in the hotel and calling an
ambulance.
Commissioner Mulrooney said he did
not believe there was any connection
between the shooting of Diamond and
the supposed kidnapping of Leo Stein
berg, % years old, described as a Brook
Ign rum-runner, who has been missing
several days. Brooklyn police were
working on the theory that Steinbere
had been kidnaped by Vannie Higgins.
an associate of Diamond In the LIQUOR
business, and THAT the shooting of Dia-
mond was q reprisal for the KIDNAPPING.
All-day Questioning of Miss Marion
StraSmick, or Roberts, failed to add
anything material to her original story
that two men had been announced
while Diamond was in her room Sum
day forenoon and that he had gone to
his, own room to receive them. She de-
MED hearing the shots.

In Boston the temperature reached
81 degrees yesterday, the highest for
the day in the annals of the Weather
Bureau. The heat was general through
out the State and numerous prostra-

tains of New Hampshire, the weather
was slightly cooler, but in marked con-
trast to October Is, 1925, when snow
plows were needed to cut paths over
the mountain roads.
Maryland Faces Shortage.
The water famine extended into
Maryland, where at Annapolis the reser-
voir was so low its sides have been
described as resembling deserted foot
ball stadium. The city would have
been without water a fortnight age but
for 200, 900 gallons drawn daily from
private supply at the United States

The prolonged dry spell in New Jer-
sey has resultedwin an outbreak OF
forest fires, 80 being reported In the
State. In the two most serious blazes,
so bungalows were destroyed between
Mays Landing and Pleasantville, while
1850 acres of timber land have been
burned over near ASTON.

said they would recommend closing the
