Curve of the Foot.

TT has been pointed out that our
feet are really not 50 very well
adapted TO the sort of work that most
of US have TO do This, they say. IN
because our primitive ancestors needed
to climb trees as much as they needed
to walk or run. Therefore their feet
were made to curve ct the inside. This
helped in tree climbing. If all that we
had had to do had been TO walk. doubt
less q foot fashioned like the elephants
would have been O better device.
Whether you agree TO this or not, you
can see for yourself that under simpler,
less civilized conditions people are less
on their feet than are many persons
squatted on the ground to attend to
most Of her simple household tasks.
The housewife Of today stands or walks
about for hours. This Is why almost
every one who has TO stand for hours
each day invariably feels the strain.
Fallen arches are not the only foot Ills
that may result.
So Just bear in mind that you, civil
lied housewife Of the twentieth century,
are asking your feet to assume burdens
for which nature hardly intended them.
Therefore help them out.
1t Is not dif1cult to have comfortable
shoes this season and still to appear in
fashion, for the pendulum Of fashion
has swung away from pointed-toed
high heeled pumps and slippers to fiat
soled oxfords or strap sandals of very
low heels. Don't make your mistake Of
using this new type Of shoe only for
dress occasions and then try to wear
out your old high-heeled slippers In the

1t is . good plan to have your shoes
for housework of some light shade
such as the new beige or gray tones.
With these shoes you can wear light

As the vogue for light gloves returns
we may expect to see American women
following the example of a few very
smart French women of wearing gloves
that are extremely roomy. Pigskin,
doeskin and various rather substantial
feathers, usually made with prominent
seams, are worn loosely drawn up over
the wrists with the new midwinter suits;

PUBLIC HEARINGS !.
 TOSTART SEPT 30.
Tri-State Anti-P0llu tiOn Commission Plans for
 Three Sessions
TO SUBMIT REPORTS

With reports from several sub- committees ready for representa- tion, the Tri-State Anti-Pollution commission, representing New York New Jersey and Connecticut will hold public hearings beginning on Sept 30th. The first of these are scheduled for Stamford, Conn, New Brunswick, N. J. and Mineola, L. I.
 The committee reports are to be submitted to the commission at its next meeting, to be held Sept 24th at the New York State Chamber of Commerce, 65 Liberty stret. Public discussion is to be invited on the findings of the com mittee, preparatory to drafting a treaty for submission to the re- spective state legislatures. Col Frank S. Taintor, chairman of the committee on engineering and research has prepared map, showing the territory to be cover- ed by the Tri-State treaty. It em- braces all waterways, the pollution of which contributes, in any way to the pollution of New Harber. At the same time Thomas Was ser, chairman of the subcommittee on federal government cooperation will submit resolution, urging amendments to the present laws which will include enlarging the present staff of the supervisor of the port of New York and in- creasing the powers of the depart ment of Justice to include control of sewage pollution.
 In announcing the intention of the commission to hold public searings, Joseph P. Day, chair man, said:
 we have made genuine pro- gress through the summer, in our attack on the question of pollution. There was never any question that, in theory, every possible agency should be directed toward ending pollution at once. What the com mission has sought to do is pro- vide a practical working method for enlisting the support of these agencies"

 Police said the young woman ad- mitted accompanying Ziegler to several parties at 'The Bungalow" a resort in Hillsdale.
 According to the confessions police and prosecutors detectives say they obtained from the princi- pals, Flanard was engaged to Miss Herring. When he learned of Zieg- ler's attentions he demanded that she stop seeing him. In reply she slapped him and returned his en-

 Mrs Ziegler learned on Tuesday that her husband planned a visit to Canada with Miss Herring, police said. She summoned Flanard to her home, having previously talked with him about Ziegler's affair.
