Seek Money-Winning Title.

- QUIPOISE, along with Mate, will
r. be shooting at the title of worlds
leading money winner, now held
by Sun Beau, since their earnings to
date, plus the 100000 added money

over the s376,744 amassed by the big
thoroughbred, now in retirement.
Mate is expected to leave England
Monday. His earnings are 1921, $50,
compared with s338,45O for Equipoise.

There will be ample supplies Of
American cotton to meet the de-

Bureau Federation.
Denying that the cotton pro

1--WE are working toward a

committed to a definite policy
of restriction. We hope that the

ously. They're awfully-awfully mad at me"
 In spite of herself, her voice thickened and blurred. and the traitorous tears threatened to come.
 Husband dead, eh? Denis told me-" muttered Edward, made un- comfortable by her show of emo- tion.
 She nodded.
 Now let's not talk about me. It's Christmas Day, and you're giving me a grand party and I cry on your shoulder. That's not fair"
 She could not talk of Russ to him-or to anyone.
 Her companion, who was grate- full for the change in atmosphere, began willingly enough to describe his activities. He'd been skating a lot, out on ,he Island, he told her. They had big freeze the week before. It was grand sport. Did she ski, he wanted to know. He was going to Lake Placid later for the winter sports. Perhaps she could come. Kay would be at the Happens for one week end, at least. And perhaps Denis. Why couldn't she come up, too? Elsie Happen was his cousin. She must meet Elise.
 Boots liked all this. Of course she wouldn't be asked to the Tap pens. Of course she wouldn't see Placid. still it was fun to be with Edward Van Sciver and listen to his enthusiastic planning.
 That is. suppose Denis and Kay will be there," Edward Inter- polated.' Unless they're married before that. In that case it'll prob ably be Bermuda. Boots scarcely heard the rest. Her head was swimming. Her heart had taken one sickening plunge. So it was as close as that, was it? Denis and Kay! We'll, it served her right for let- ting herself think of Denis for a single minute. She had no dignity, no integrity. She had been Russ wife few months ago. Now. with shock, she realized that already Denis mattered in her life. (TO Be COntinued)

 It would be unnatural indeed iS boys and girls. in public scnooi felt completely at home.
 There is little in the education- { al system as we know it to tie IL to home life.
 This is an advantage In some ways, but disadvantage in others It is good for children to meet life on a basis other than that of the family group. yet IT school continues as in the past 10 be thing apart, especially TOT
 young children, there VIII con tinue in the child's heart a feel ing of divided allegiance-not III favor of the school.
 Perhaps few children go as far as to say to the teacher, You're not my boss," but If the truth were known this is the tenet or many and always has been.
 Work, Not Child, That Counts
 They may be unaware of it; they even may be fond of the teacher in a way and accept school with a wholesome attitude towarG discipline and work.
 But in school they are not real entities, and they know It. They are one of group. Individually they count, but not for them. selves. It is their work thai counts. Each child is measured. not by love as at home, but py his deeds. He is, more or less, producing machine.
 Again this is a good thing, all though 1t does not bridge the gap, nor overcome the feeling that each day he has to cross the Rupi- con into alien country. Pre-chum Age Difficult Later. 1t won't matter so much when Bill and Chuck and Pete are just a bit more important to his immediate interests than his parents, or when Sally is nearby for Jane to share her secrets. It is in the pre-chum or pre- gang stage that children are like ly to feel they leave something l precious at home every time they pick up their books.
 There is way to give such | children greater trust in school and to help them to conform
 more happily to it's rigid require l ments.
 Both school and home should cooperate in this plan, because 1t
 precludes the visits of too many mothers to schoolrooms. Of course | every mother would be wise to
 contact the teacher in some way. with the child present, and be- come friends with her. Not to dis
 cuss the child in any way before
 him, however.
 | Yielding School and Home Parent teachers associations | are on the right track, but l sug-
 gest they have children present at some meetings. Let's call them parties instead of meetings. l If children could see home and school meld into a common group
 once in a while they would lose
 the idea they belong in two worlds worlds too often oppsed. They l would submit less resentfully to regimentation and discipline, and 1 of they felt their parents more in | terested they would be more in-
 terested themselves.
 | Teachers sense instinctively this
 "alien' position. They are keenly
 aware of the disinterestcd and
 often hostile attitude of the fam ily. So far most of the overtures
 toward truce have been made by the teaching body.

PARIS STYLES
By MARY KNIGHT

Paris (UP)-The omnipotent. de- tail is teachers pet as far as we are concerned. It has more ways or making a woman smart than all the rest of her rigging put together. It often happens that money gets together a wardrobe for an ultra -swank woman of interna- tional culture and discrimination, and the result is that she is so per- fectly groomed that nobody not ices her even once, let alone turns for second eye-gaze.
 We've been checking up for weeks now. just to report statis- tics to you and satisfy our own curiosity, and by sitting around Tn some of the houses of the Great and Near Great. we've remarked that only about one out of every ten has it-has that omnipotent de- tail that is to her what the spot light is to the theatrical performer. It sets her off, and 1t also sets her men friends off too-off to make dates with her.
 Just think of mere detail hanging the whole course of your life maybe; winning the "Only One" that all the other grills are after too; getting you title. or an automobile. or a diamond ring the very thing your little old heart beats for! Yet 1t will. The right purse, the right pin, the veil on your hat at the right angle: your gloves. your shoes. your handl.erchief-and above all things your cosmetics put on to make you look natural not nauseous.

 He's at house party up near Tuxedo with Kay Chil!ingford and some people," Edward told her.
 Her heart plunged sickeningly. It was nothing to her, she remind ed herself sternly, if Denis spent all his time with Kay these days. Hadn't she known ages ago that he was in love with Kay? She. Boots, was the merest acquaint- ance.. Besides she had sworn never to love another man. What Denis did was no earthly affair of hers.
 Presently she found herself op- posite Edward in a big, dim, softly hung restaurant with famous mu- rals on the walls, with the traffic of Park Avenue slipping sedately below them.

The perfect coiffure is one tha. fiatters the head as well as the face. There's nothing commend able about a hair style of which you approve when you glance in the mirror but which is quite ugly Joking to the person who sits be- hind you in the theater.
 Carefully consider the shape of your head before you try out a new coiffure. If your head is beautifully shaped, go ahead with a sleek arrangement that shows the contour to good advantage. If it isn't, better try something that tends to cover up the lines you know aren't so attractive.
 For instance, woman with T fiat area across the back of her head might pile her hair into a wide bun and pin it securely right across the fiat space. One with a skull that is rather pointed could place the snood right under the pointed spot. thereby improving the general effect.
 If you have an usually large head, better stick to simple, fiat CoIIIureS. 1T IL SHlall, go III TOT widening effects such as rows of little curls, piled high on sides as well as back.
 Don't cut bangs unless you're absolutely sure that your forehead isn't one of your assets. Generally speaking, bare foreheads are most attractive. As a matter of fact, many stage and screen stars train their hair as far back as it will go, allowing widows peaks and hairlines to show.

Vacation is over, and we aie all back home. We got in on last Saturday afternoon, and on Sunday when I went over to the Johnsons to deliver various odds and ends that had been packed in my car, I found the family looking almost as if they had never gone away, Almost, but not quite, for although Mrs Johnson had cleared away all traces of unpacking, both she anI her family looked so happy and we'll that it was obvious they had been on vacation.
 MT Johnson summed up the general state of mind in the time honored phrase. T feel a different person." he declared, stretching himself luxuriously in the porch swing. That's because you lost seven pounds!" announced Mrs Johnson, with wifely candor. Mir Johnson grinned. like a schoolboy.
 Something in that" he agreed, "and what's more I'm not going to let it accumulate again. Got to find some sort of exercise now for the fall and winter. What do you say, doctor?" Quite right" I said. How about you and Mrs Johnson both joining the new community golf club with me? Though after seeing Mrs Johnson whack those balls the way she did up at the lake," I added, q feel almost afraid to play with her." "Me too," said Mir Johnson, but I'll take chance if Mary will. ".Upon which Mrs Johnson promptly told him not to be a goose" but she was obviously pleased at the i'm. piled compliment.
 I shall be delighted if the John sons do join the club, for it will be one way of. making the good ef- fects of the vacation last longer than they might otherwise last. It seems a great pity to lose the en- ergy, the good humor, the feel ing of general fitness that a we'll spent vacation gives. The routine of housekeeping, office and school takes up a good deal of time anc effort, to be sure, but~it shouldn't wipe out vacation habits alto gether. And speaking of school, I'm glad that Mrs Johnson. remembered 10 ask me before left the house to set a time for the annual physi- cal examination of the children. They all look perfectly well. but Mrs Johnson wants to be sure they are as we'll as they can possibly be

DOES RABIES OCCUR IN MAN?
 In the Los Angeles County hos pital records for 10 years (1922- 32) there were 15 deaths aseribed to rabies. In four instances, accord ing to a physician who believes rabies does occur in man, the char acter of the disease to which the victims succumbed was conclu- sively proven by animal inocula- tion of brain substance from the suspected persons. This is the most conclusive proof known to science, fulfilling Koch's postulate. In five cases negri bodies were found in the human brain.'
 We're funny. we docs, when we wish to appear "scientific.' Koch would turn over in his grave if he could hear this strange twist of his postulate.
 There is absolutely nothing scien- tific about the alleged diagnosis. prevention or treatment of rabies in man. There is nothing scientific about the diagnosis of rabies in animals. It is all a purely empirical question, a question of individual opinion. Even the finding of so- callt.l negri bodies, regarded by some pathologists of characteristic of rabies, is a matter of personal

Fabrics Give New Models
 Novelty

A-
 dark haired woman as well as the blonde. It is also good combined with black, and somewhat new in effect.
 Fabrics contribute great deal to the novelty of the new style. Silks endeavor to look like wools and vice versa. The introduction of cellophane strands supplies high-surfaced finish which make evening clothes look much more luxurious. Tn the stiff materials, or rather. stiff-appearing, are in cluded some beautiful failles, moires and Lyons velvets, which make statuesque, luxurious gowns. Blouses Assume Importance
 The tailored suit has staged a come- back, not only for sports but for afternoon wear, and even cocktail dresses. I have used heavyweight cotton velvets for many of these. as we'll as woolens. Blouses are consequently impor- tant and supply the note of fan tasy.
 In many of the day coats I have used fur as fabric rather than as mere trimming, introducing some novel effects. Some very attractive models have been the result. for which I have used black and grey astrakhan as we'll as Hudson and brown seal. golden beaver and nutria. Fur remains the ideal trimming for formal street and evening clothes--it in- variably provides flattering frame for the face.
 Embroidery, when used dis creetly, resumes it's place as decorative element.
 It would be wrong to say that I have brought any very drastic change m the silhouette. The use of both stiff and supple fabrics, however, has opened the way to greater fantasy. and according to the nature of the fabric the sill houette contriyes to look differ ent, though basically the same.
