TuSTS are GnOSe WHO possess
a lot Of knowledge but, alasl-
they don't know how TO use It..
Intelligence does not depend
upon what you know, how much
schooling you have had, how
many university degrees you can
write after your name, how
often you have Travelled abroad,
or upon any other similar fac
tors, although 1t is true that,
such assets are usually con-
founded with intelligence.
What constitutes Intelligence,
on the other hand-and MOTH
ing else is the ability Of the
individual to adjust his think
ing and actions to the ever
changing conditions and prob
lens Of life.
Scores and scores Of young
men and women are graduated
from our higher schools OF
learning each year who still are
not intelligent. They may have
Crammed q lot Of information
into their minds. and their
memory for what they have
learned may be excellent; but
demand of them that they
adapt q part Of this knowledge
to the realities Of life SO that
they. as individuals, Will either
harmOnize with these realities
or control them, and they 1al
sadly by the Wayside.
That is why many personSs
some professional educators In
cluded, question seriously
whether q college training Is
the best for everybody. That
also Is why the schools, even as
low as the primary and gram
mar grades, are beginning TO
teach their pupils adaptability
primarily, instead Of routine
and more or less lifeless facts.
Among the greatest men OF
the present tiE1les AS wen as
Of the past, have been many
who were poorly educated but
highly intelligent: and If one
had to make q choice it surely
would be better 10 be intelligent
without education, rather than
vice versa.
Therefore. do not worry so
much about how much you
do not know. Worry more
about applying successfully what
you already possess. Let your
knowledge, no matter how
meagre it may be, display it
self make itself useful. Keep
your thinking fluid, and change
your mind without shame as
often as you feel justified in
doing so.

In spite Of the general rainy
weather for Easter. we can
learn . thing or two from re-
ports of the fashion parade.
one Weil.known New York
writer managed to get around
quite . BIT. and saw people in
nearly every part Of the town.
me one thing that struck her
most forcibly was that the men
Is . whole looked better than
the women. she attributed It
to the fact that they stuck to
conventional clothes, striped
trousers. morning coats, dark
ties. where they couldn't go
wrong, while the women
achieved q spotty effect by mix
ing colors too much. and BY
wearing the wrong accessories,
even If they had the right cos
tune.
Accessory Harmony
This writer admitted that
many women must have left the
right hat ct home, and probably
saved their best gloves. But even
90, there's little excuse for mix
ing Colors so badly that an
Easter parade looks all wrong.
1t must be that women haven't
learned their color harmonies
very well this year. and that
they need lots more thought on
the subject Of their accessories.
so again this morning we'll go
into the matter, with the hope
That more women will take
critical look at their wardrObes
and be more careful In the fl1-
Gure as to accessory colors.
Two or Three COlOrs
It's true that two colors are
better than one, and often you
need three in an ensemble, but
when you get more than that
you're on dangerous ground,
and even three colors must be
done well. n.one color is q ne1l-

"Under the new DEAL" Mr.. Moley
said, "the consumer has come into his
own.''
Satisfying the needs of the consumer,
he added, Is the best way to permanent
social progress.
1.-THE advertising profession can per-

have failed to attack" Mr.. Moley said
"The advertising profession has indi-

public opinion for many years. 1t can
take the lead again in tackling the ques-

purchasing power"
The new deal. Moley said, is predi-
Gated upon the theory of cooperation
and not upon the theory OF arbitrary
dictation.
"It is imbedded in the belief that
rebuild our shaken edifice," he added
"It does not look forward to any
abridgment Of individual liberty. It
looks forward to a stable economy. pro-
viding economic security and political
freedom for all. The new deal shuns

There Is no need for pattrnalEm, where

The granddaughter Of the late r.

dollars, came into her one-third share
of the fortune yesterday upon arriving

The former Miss Hutton--ES1e is now

q pink birthday cake and was host to
% small tables Of guests at dinner. The
eighth and ninth floors of her fathers
town house on Fifth avenue were given
over to the party. An orchestra played
gypsy music, and some voices from the
opera provided further entertainment.
Under the terms of a pre-marital
contract, the 5-and-10-cent store heiress
will retain control Of her fortune, the
prince having received, 1t was under
