manipulation Of peculiar climatic,
geophysical. biological complex--the
North American continent.
The European. in order to live. was
forced to take over the Indians pecu-
liar solutions Of the problems Of life
offered by that complex. They be-
came part Of his own culture-dis-
placing in great blocks, the elements
of European culture he had brought
with him. The present American diff
fers essentially from the present-day
European largely in that he Is partly
an adopted Indian--whether or not
he is willing to admit 1t. His anceS-
ters took over the Indians agriculture
and his food, his ways Of fighting and
hunting, and some of his language as
exemplified by American place names.
They even adopted a good deal Of
the Indian philosophy Of life and have
clung TO 1t tenaciously--the democra-
tic ideal Of the Northern tribes. which
based the social position Of any man
entirely on his accomplishments and
allowed nothing for blood or heritage.
Finally, although this Is somewhat
debatable point, he may have adopted
an Indian political system. The re-
lationship between the Constitution of
the United States and that Of the
great federated republic Of the Iro-
quois Is highly complicated and much
chronological scholarship will be re-
| quired to clear it up.
Thus the cultural tug-of-war has
gone on. The white man has abb
sorbed, by murder or otherwise, the
redman's body. The redman has
white mans mind
At present, says Mr.. Collier, some
Indian tribes are practically white" :"
so far as culture is concerned. Some
are still pre-Columbian. The ma
| jority still possess much of their old
endowment. but have been taught
to consider 1t inferior and keep it
out Of sight for fear Of ridicule.
Bureau Of EthnolOgy Basis
For New Indian Aid.
Through the past half century the
ideal of preserving and knowing the
Indian has been recognized by the
Government in the maintenance Of
the Bureau of American Ethnology.
Fortunately 1t never has had any
administrative functions and hence
no political manipulation. But, Mr..
Collier says, largely upon the basis
of its voluminous and objective re-
searches is to be reared the new
structure of culture within q cul-
ture-co-operating and not COM
peting.
The American experiment, Mr..
Collier points out, may have far
reaching implications. During the
past century the Caucasian races
have overrun the world, taking their
cultures with them. Almost every
where they have become dominant
by absorbing or destroying what they
found.
They have tried to make a one
civilization world. They have even
referred to their peculiar mechanistic
culture as civilization" designating
everything else as savagery.
And In doing SO they may have
written their own doom-as the
bronto5auruS or the mammoth wrote
their own doom once they had walled
of all roads of evolution but one.
The experiment with the Indians
may be an opening of the road to
escape-especially If it Is taken up
by other conquering nations the world
over.

Then Smif recalled that Charles had

SHOES MATCH GARB
in CUT AND COLOR

New shoes for 1884 match clothes
In cut and color.
High-throated shoes appear as a
smart accompaniment for the high
necked frocks, while oxfords which
lace over the top of the foot with six
or seven eyelets are shown as advance
spring footwear to be worn with
dresses which lace up the front.
Shoes which have flecked designs In
several tones across the instep, sug-
costing the effect of flecked woods, are
shown as smart accessory to knitted
or flecked wool sports frocks, and
shoes covered with little diamond
shaped perforations are ready to be
worn with high-necked frocks which
have a diamond brooch flashing from
the high neckline.

Those Who Can
Stand and Wait"
Quality Often of Greater
Value Than Ability
to Do Things.

"Every important life story has
two aspects" says the famous DIR.
Harry Emerson Fosdick: THE
things man has energy enough TO
do and the things man has stability
enough to stand"
That is of special interest to wom-
en-. is the comment of a celebrated
woman writer, for it is particularly
true with women that much of what
we are able to accomplish depends
on how much we can stand.
The hardest battles are not al
ways fought in the field of action. In
deed most of us have at some time
said: "lt's so much easier when
there's something you can do"
Sometimes the most important "do-
ing" consists of standing" something
that is hard TO stand.
The energy to do" is, of course, an
important thing. In this rushing,
hustling. competitive world we all
have need of it. But there are cir
cumstances in everyone's life when
that is uncalled for. when it is use
less, when the problem at hand is one
1t cannot solve. That is the time
usually when ii is not energy, but
standability that is needed to win
through. Strength, yes. but the
strength of balance and stability, the
strength not to go out and do, but to
stand and take it, to stand and with
stand.
If ] were faced with a choice Of
the two qualities, | should say that
the person is better off, particularly
If she is a woman, who has her
abundance in that steadiness and sta
bility that can stand things, than one
WI, has instead merely surplus OF
energy For the former is the quail
ity most needed in the exigencies OF
daily life, needed most often and then
most desperately. And it is quail
ity that depends entirely upon itself,
that is not fed by outside stimulus,
as energy and activity may be.
In line Of the poet, Milton, there
is thought on one kind of standing
things:
"They also serve who only stand
and wait"

Sniff took deep breath

I news. 1t would seem that the five
fetching spring chapeaux in the Illus
tration could not pose farther back on
the head If they tried and stay on
properly. However, that is the way
OF the newest brims-to describe a sort
of halo about the head which gives US
something refreshingly different from
the types which have been in fashion
for many seasons past.
We are inclined to believe that a
conspiracy must have been going on
between milliner and hairdresser to
have brought about such perfect har-
mony between hat and hair. We will
admit that this new silhouette, at first
glance, seems designed for youth and
youth only, but by way Of encourage
ment to those who hesitate we're tell
Ing you that the off-the-face hairdress
and the brim which reveals an expan-
sive forehead are more f1attering to
those beyond debutante years than one
might suppose. Then, too, as the new
models continue to join in the style
parade 1t Is noted that milliners are
introducing little softening touches In
the way of front bandeaux and other
devices which are guaranteed to fat
ter.
Nor Is it fair to conclude that a soft
arrangement Of hair about the face is
utterly taboo. On the contrary fash
ion is that tickle you are told in one
breath to brush back your hair so as
to show a placid brow and the next in
slant it's rumors Of "bangs" which
reaches our astonished ears. The first

Softness in New Dresses

When one recalls the long and hap
by career of the Vionnet soft crepe
afternoon dresses and the cry for more

that the stylists again recognize the
possibilities latent in the soft crepe
frock. The Vionnets were soft through
cowls, scarf details and circular full
ness, while these latest types have un-
pressed pleats and careless Grapes.
But it is a type of frock which stands
out as entirely distinct from the tai
Iored daytime frock.

BOULEVARD PLAN
 FOR BALDWIN ST
Petition May Be Filed With Board of Police COm-
 missiOners

A proposal to make Baldwin street a boulevard may be placed before the board of police commis- sioners early next year if propon- ents of the plan can secure the ap- proval of the Washington Park Community club. The group in favor of the plan will bring 1t up at the next meeting of the com munity organization and has high hopes that a vote in favor of 1t will be recorded.
 The system proposed will make necessary a dead stop by all cars entering Baldwin street from side streets. with the boulevard area ex- tending from Bridge street to Pied mont street. The only cross street excluded would be Washington street. the exception being made because signal light is already in operation at the busy corner.
 The newest move on behalf Of safety follows many complaints which have been heard intermity- tently since Baldwin street was re- ley tracks a few years ago. Resi- dents of the Baldwin street section claim that the thoroughfare is used as a speedway and that cars coming out of side streets without haiting create a dangerous traffic menace.
 In the past the matter was brought before the Community club several times but no definite action was ever taken. The back CTS of the present move, however. are confident that their plan will win the community clubs support. and that the police board, after study, will recommend a boulevard system for Baldwin street.

 Tt may have been made by very wise men, but 1t was made in an age when the country and life were different from today. I respect 1t, and it's served the country well.
 But don't let's forget that, after all. It's our second constitu- tion. When the same forefathers you're always talking about found that their first constitution. the Articles of Confederation, was no good they didn't hesitate to go to work to make a new one. LIFTS DO IT RIGHT''

 In the main, 1t does three things. It divides government powers among the administrativ, officers. congress. and the courts It divides powers between the fed
