Inland Empire Holds
Nations Attention

Repeatedly, business men from
Spokane and the Inland Empire,
travelling in the east or talking
to men of prominence visiting here
from other sections Of the country
are made aware of the interest
which is conferred on the Pacific
Northwest from business and eco
nomic standpoint.
This situation, which holds Sc
much promise to this region, is
summarized by a recent editorial
in the Spokesman Revied which
reads as follows.
"W. p. Stapleton of the North
ern Pacific's land settlement serv-
ice, told the Kennewick Chamber
Of Commerce last week that 500
acres Of new land have been put
into crops there this year. Eighty
new farmers have come into the
district and &c residents purchased
additional acreage"
Dayton, official seat of Columbia
county, reports that for the first
time in 10 years everyb usineSs site
on Main street is occupied, and
plans are under way for the erec-
ton of newb uildings.
The Inland Empire and the Pa
cific Northwest are in the nation
al eye again, after 20 years Of ar
rested immigration and retarded
development. Outstanding factors
are the western drought, Grand
Coulee construction and re-awaken-
ed interest in irrigation. These adj
vance arrivals sustain the assurance
so often repeated by workers for
the Columbia basin project-that
the whole northwest would receive
Immediate benefits, once tie official
was made that the
big project had been authorized and
construction started"

Psychology
BY DIR. JESSE w. SPROWLS.
Difficulties.

IF YOU were to take all your diff
culties to heart, you would run
risky chances as to your sanity. In
the long course of century on CEN
tury, nature has invented system
which makes for sanity. That sys-
tenn should be called objectivation.
It works this way: Faced with sus-
picion that you yourself are to blame
for your difficulties, you proceed to
wish them off onto some one else.
This is objectivation. AS such it is
not without its shady complexion. We
dislike it in others. Will not admit
it in ourselves. Nevertheless, it is
the lesser of two evils. And as such,
it is something to be praised rather
than condemned.
1t is a good deal better to convince
yourself that you are not to blame
for anything and everything than it
is to wear yourself out with burden
of self-pity and self-condemnation.
But all good devices may be over
worked. Objectivation is salvation.
But you may become its slave. Prac-
tice it to the point of putting every
thing outside yourself, and you turn
out to be a nobody. Everything has
its price. And if objectivation spreads
your entire self over the exteriors
of life, the personality loses its iden-
tity and Is known no more.

- TITCHING is here again! Rows
and rows of it trim nice tai
lored frocks, much in the
- fashion of the Edwardian era,
when it was lavishly used. That was
about the turn of the century and
there will be some of you who recall
the long "dust-catcher" skirts, with
a dozen or so lines of stitching trim
ming wide hens. Or jackets, stitched
and stitched, in designs, or just rows
around the edges. Now the dress
maker" fashions are back with us
again and braid and stitching re-
turned with them.
/ This two-piece dress is an excellent
design for the mature figure. The pep
lum is just the right length, and the
asymmetrical line of the blouse. and
elongated bow do much to make you
look tall and slim Sleeves are long,
and wide at the bottom, and the skirt
has a panel IN front to emphasize the
new fiaring line, which must be ac-
complished without detracting from
the slender silhouette. Much atten-
ton is given to surface trimming,
braids, and embroideries, and stitching.
Here all the edges of the blouse. except
the lower edge of the peplum, are
trimmed in fiat lines of machine
stitching, in either heavy silk, or metal
threads. The chart indicates how sim
pie this frock is to achieve, and the
effect is certainly very smart.

in the market that would be lovely

alert, more attentive, more careful to
see that the child was kept out of
the street when at play, and that he
was rendered intelligent about pro-
tecting himself when it was necessary
for him to traverse them in his daily
xalks-he would not have been there
to become easy prey for the careless
driver.
From the first moment of under
standing a child should be taught
that the street is no more play
ground for him than a battlefield
under heavy barrage would be. He
should be taught the reason for
crossing at the proper intersections,
the meaning of signals and whistles;
that he should abide by them both
as he does by the most rigid laws.
He should be told to use his eyes-to
turn his head-to look seeingly in
both directions before he attempts to
cross even at an intersection. Punish
him for minor infractions of these
rules-you may be saving him from

TINE popular modern one-room
apartment, consisting of
large room, bath and dressing
n room, kitchenette and per-
chance a small dining alcove and
entrance hall, provides happy solu-
ton for the business couple who do
not wish to be burdened with house
keeping, but who still feel that they
want a place to call their own
where they may housekeep when they
are in the mood-and entertain their
friends informally.
Observing a family of two who re-
Gently found it necessary to move into
one of these small units from much
larger quarters, it was interesting to
see just how attractive and comfort
able a 24-hour room could be made.
Placing some of the furniture in
storage, the young matron kept only
the pieces she thought would be suit
able and useful in small space. The
large, heavy pieces were eliminated
the only ones she was forced to
keep underwent minor changes.
X X
S1NCE the apartment was not equip
ped with a wall bed and in view
of the fact that it would have been
foolish to invest in new studio couches
with so much furniture already being
stored-the sleeping unit at first pre-
sented a puzzling problem. Then the
bright idea of converting the twin
beds into couches was conceived! A
cabinetmaker was called, and it was
learned that frame to accommodate
the box springs and mattresses of each
bed could be easily made. Finished,
they would stand about "a inches
from the f1oor-a little wider than
the usual couch. but ever so COM
Portable! This plan was carried out
with great success.
The desk, which was a regular
Gov. Winthrop type, had been con-
verted into two pieces of furniture by
removing the top bookcase. Placing
this upper portion on four low legs it
became floor bookcase-set on the
far side of the room, away from the
desk section, it gave the needed bal
ance, as, well as making the space
appear larger than if the desk had
been left intact.

Thanks Due
AS Pleasant
Party Ends
BY EMILY POST.

hEAR MRS. POST: viii you
please tell a group of us %
whether when parting girl is sup
posed to thank young man for the
pleasant evening he showed her. (2)
Whether when parting, girl ought
to thank young man who has seen
her home from a party. to which
every one went alone. We are very
eager to know these answers"
Answer: CD Certainly thank him.
How abominably rude not to! II
loved the movie, john" or thank
you for taking me to the movie or
I've had a wonderful time" (2) Ger
tainly, again. She ought TO say some
thing polite. THANK you ever so
much for bringing me home" 1T
was a shame to take you so far out OF
your way, but thank you very much"
Dear Mrs Post: l have seen a
great deal of young man for the
last year and now he would like ne
to take trip with him. We are, of
course, taking friend of mine for
q third person. How many Of my
expenses may I permit him to pay
without laying myself open to crit
iciSm? I really cannot afford to take
this trip unless it is all right to let
him stand most of my share of it,
which he expects to do"
Answer: You must pay your own
hotel room bills and for everything
put on your room bill. but these will
be divided with your friend. if she
shares your room. I don't know
whether he is expecting to be host and
pay for her meals and amusementS
as we'll as yours, as well as the ex-
penses Of the car, but this is some
thing that you ought to know about
very certainly, before you go. don't
think he can very well let her pay
for her food and amusementS, unless
you pay for yours, too.
Dear Mrs. Post: Recently sent
in an application blank to the college
to which I am going this year. On
the blank I gave two references. A
friend of mine has since told me that
this was a rude thing to do, without
III 81 dohAlS AOA Pei iiilooAOlA " uoC ekACAA
names. Please tell me the truth
Answer: Your friend is right-un-
less you know them intimately, and
in this case you ought to have written
and told them you had done so. If
you don't know them very, very well.
you ought to write at once and apollo
gize for not having written to ask
them first.
Dear Mrs. Post: I have been
known from babyhood as Betty, al
though my real name is Mary Vir-
ginia. Now that am at an age when
I ought to have visiting cards, how
should these be engraved since my
real name will mean nothing to most
people?"
Answer: According to etiquette.
your cards should be engraved Miss
Mary Virginia-that Is certain. But
since there would seem to be little
sense in having cards engraved with
name that no one recognizes as
yours, I think in your particular in
stance I would interpret etiquette to
suit myself.

TWO large chests discreetly placed,
one in the dressing room, the
other in the large closet, provided
ample drawer space, while the console
table and mirror in the entrance hall
played the role Of dressing table.
Several lounge chairs of medium size,
one with an ottoman so that it could
be made into chaise Tongue, and two
Chippendale chairs supplied the extra
seating capacity aside from the divans.
A lamp table and coffee table were
advantageously placed near the larger
chairs.
There was no dining nook, and
rather than clutter the already gen.
erouSly filled room with drop-leaf
or gateleg table, folding card table
and four folding chairs to match were
purchased. These we're stored in the
closet when not in use.
THE floor covering was lovely an
tique Oriental rug that had been
a wedding present-it was really too
beautiful to store away. 1t presented,
however, the problem of finding suit
able draperies and divan coverings.
The only solution was to use a neutral
beige for the latter and rich old rose,
one of the prominent shades in the
rug. for the drapes.
Several English colored prints
hunting scenes, hung with thick silk
cords from the ceiling molding-a
few rare porcelain vases, one floor
lamp and two small table lamps with
white shades completed the furnish
ing.
Upon entering the room the visitor
is led to believe that it is one Of
many in an apartment of generous
size-it in no way has the appear
ance of bed-dining living roOm-the
modern 24-hour abode.
