FROM many uen a persistent

thine was" they croak, when
we could cherish and adore a
woman. But the modern specimen
is SO bold, so forward, so smart!
How can any man give to her
that alteration which flowed spon-
taneously from his heart to the
modest maiden Of long ago?
"Since you all have taken to
voting and college and business,
you no longer are creatures for
whom men would sell their souls"
To all of which we must an
swer. "Applesauce" Besides, who
wants man selling his soul for
one? For what qualities did men
respect the old-fashioned woman?
They say it was because Of her
purity, her meekness, and her
lovely white heart.
But it wasn't, my friends. They
only are kidding themselves when
they say that. 1t was for her
obedience and her humility be-
fore them.
The old-fashioned woman did
not deserve as much respect from
men as our kind does, and per-
sonally I don't believe she got 1t.
IN the first place, the type that
L was referred to as unsullied
generally was a pussyfooting
racketeer. She worked her will
on her husband in a hundred
underhand ways. If she couldn't
manage him, she threw a fit OF
Mysteries. Hers was q gentle but
unholy form of blackmail. She
used her purity and modesty to
have her own way.
Now it seems to me that there
are certain fundamental traits
peculiar to both men and women
that deserve respect. They include
courage, patience. valor and hon.
esty. And leave 1t to any truth
full man whether the typical
modern woman does not possess
these qualities in more abundance
than the bygone type.
When a man begins to talk
about his respect for womanhood,
1 suspect him of having an I'M
easy conscience. There's no par
ticular merit in being admired
lust because you are a woman.
1t is the individual and not the
sex representative that longs for
notice.
Besides, 1 have know numbers
Of men who respected their door
mats exactly as they did their
wives.

starting Of Just what your dress
will look like when it is redone.
It takes an experienced seams
treSs to experiment and let the gar
ment take its course. It is ten
times easier and hundred times
surer to decide just what you can
do in the way of remodeling, before
you rip single seam.
Easy to Revamp
Last years frocks lend them
selves nicely to this years modes.
The chief difficulties with them are
three: They are too short, they
have pointed or curved hemlines,
they are worn out under the arms.
All three things can be remedied
and you will be surprised how
easily.
Take first of all the belted
straightline frock that may be a
little short. Why not venture a
jumper frock out Of it, especially
if it is polka dotted or has another
printed pattern?
You can wear any blouse you
have with it. And the jumper frock
is useful ard chic.
Here Are Directions
To let the frock down and re-
make it, follow these directions: Rip
out the sleeves and also rip out the
shoulder seams. Drop the dress four
or five inches and make straps eight
or ten inches long, to button over
the shoulder and hold the frock in
place out of the old sleeves you will
no longer need.
Face and armholes and the new
deep neckline from the sleeves and
make a belt Of the material if there
isn't one. You can cut pockets into
the hip-portion, for jauntiness, and
add few buttons there, on the belt,
and to fasten the shoulder straps in
place.
To remake last years frock that
had long points on the sides of the
skirt, but is too short to cut even
all around, and perhaps bit skinny
in the lower edge, an excellent plan
is as follows: Get two yards of ma
terial the same color, but of differ
ent texture from your dress. Satin
is good to use with fiat crepe, or
silk with wool.
Make Circular FIounce
Make a circular f1ounce and
either cut your dress skirt off even
and pose this flounce onto it, or
pose it under the pointed edge and
applique the points down.
Make cowl collar of the con-
trasting material and haring, circu-
lar cuffs.
If the dress hung straight, take
three-inch pin tucks at each side
of the front waistline and the back
also, to fit the frock. Or you can
make "a belt of the contrasting
material.

Leaving their baggage. they retreated a considerable dis tance, having previously thrown a party into Mir Chew's house, who were in situation not to be easily forced, and had it in their power, from the windows, to give us no small annoyance, and m great measure to obstruct our advance"
 The delay occasioned by the at tempt to take this garrison oper- ated together with the foggy. ark ness, to confuse the Americans. The firing at this place led the troops who had passed 1t to believe a change in situation had occurred, and the retreat began.
 ''The morning was extremely foggy," continued Washington's let ter, which prevented our improv- ing the advantage we gained, so we'll as we should otherwise have done. This circumstance, by con cealing from Us the true situation Of the enemy, obliged us to act with more caution and less expe lition than we could have wished; and gave the enemy time to recover from the effects of our first i'm pression; and, what was still more unfortunate, it served to keep our different parties in ignorance of each others movements and hinder their acting in concert. It also occasioned them to mistake one another for the enemy, which be- lieve more than any thing else con- tributed to the misfortune that en- sued. In the midst of the promis- Ing appearances, when every lining gave the first flattering hopes of victory, the troops began suddenly to retreat, and entirely left the field, ln spite of every effort that could be made to rally them.
 General Knox wrote that Wash ington, unmindful of danger to himself, rode into the storm of bullets in an effort tc rally the fleeing Americans. No one felt the sting of this disappointing defeat as did the Commander-in-C Chief.
 Upon the whole" the report concluded, ''it may be said that the day was rather unfortunate than injurious. We sustained no material loss of men, and brought off all our artillery, except one 1:ece which was dismounted. The enemy are nothing the better by the event

In the early morning of October 4, 1777, George Washington, with characteristic vigor and decisien, attacked the British troops at Germantown, Pennsylvania. The Americans, supposedly dispirited by their recent defeat at Brandywine, Howe considered incapable of so bold stroke.
 But General Washington made a night march in order to surprise the enemy. He believed he had succeeded and wrote Congress to that effect, but evidence later ob- tained from British records makes the complete surprise theory some what doubtful.
 At any rate, the Americans at first seemed headed toward com plete victory. Washington and his officers believed the day won, when suddenly the Continentals and ac- companying militia were thrown into unexpected confusion. Instead of following up the advantage gained at first, Washington saw his men hastily retreat.
 This battle, says the United States George Washington Bicenten- nial Commission, was one of the half dozen or so Of the Revolu- tionary conflicts in which General Washington commanded in person. Unfortunately he was denied victory by circumstances over which he had no control. Despite his repulse, however the great American leader had acted on the offensive and had given Howe sufficient reason to fear for his safety. He once more, as at Trenton and Princeton, show ed himself to be a dangerous ad- versary, able to strike quickly and with telling effect.
 On October 5, Washington wrote tC the President of Congress an ac- count of the battle. The attack was determined upon, Washington said, after it was learned that Howe had weakened the post by sending some of his troops to the Deleware It was arranged to attack German town on all sides at once, and the morning of October was fixed as the time.
 "We marched about seven o'clock the preceding evening"" wrote Washington, land General Sulli- vans advanced party, drawn from Conway's brigade, attacked theiI picket at Mount Airy or MT Aliens house, about sunrise the next morning, which presently gave way; and his main body, consisting

The committee wrote the governor
merely for his information" Two
weeks ago the committee attacked
Mayor walkers private life in state
ment issued by Alan Fox, but the club
diS7vowed the statement.
The report blames the condition OF
the school system on Mayor Walker,
who has remained indifferent, although
he holds power OF removal of members
of the Board of Education" The super
intendent. William j. O'Shea. is de-
Scribed as man OF mediocre intel

gressive. who has never contributed an
important idea to educational progress"
The report mentions ugly runners" IN
school site purchases, and charges tnat
party welfare is being put ahead OF
the welfare OF million pupils.
In a chapter dealing with the Roth
stein case, the report says: 1T is dim
cult TO believe that police officials and
some men high in the city administra- :
ton did not know all about the Roth
stein murder" The chapter hints at
"cover-up' tactics by police and public
