New York--The woolens that go to make up new coats for all oc- casions are soft as the first spring breeze and light as a feather when you squeeze them in your hand Even when their surfaces look heavy and rough, you'll discover that the material underneath ts quite the contrary. Clever fabric designers really have outdone them selves to create woolens that look like what they aren't.
 Colors are Interesting and a. musing, too. There are the oper- etta shades, including bon bon pink, pistache-green, canary -bird- yellow, California poppy - orange and e-bird-blue, that make one think of the settings in musical comedy or operetta on Broadway. Also gray in all the tones from brownish ones like an elephants hide to pale, bluish shades that remind you of a dove's wings.
 Plan Wardrobe First.
 You can have black and navy blue, of course. And very smart they are.. However, if you want to vary your color scheme this spring, why not beige in some rather rich tone?
 Remember, though. if you have few printed and plain dresses left over from the blue or black wardrobe of last season, a beige coat won't be economical. Don't buy until you have carefully plan ned your entire wardrobe.
 If you wear rather feminine

It is interesting to watch higf school activities these days. Ms eye runs over the weekly record page today, and these are some oi the things l note:
 "A newspaper written in short. hand is one device that members of the Short-Hand club of Perry high school intend to use to in' crease their skill in reading and writing shorthand"
 "One of the most recent re- .. -als of that time-consuming but fascinating game of chess has talk en place at the Sewickley high school. Matches are being held inside and outside of school" 'The Student Cooperative As sociation held its second meeting at A. H. s. on Thursday. A long discussion followed concerning the various student courts in the diff ferent schools and the methods of administering punishment" Re: Student government" l suppose Activities Are Varied It goes on. Activities in music, drama, journalism. One school beginning a question-and-answers column iIl it's paper, and answers to be found in the school curric- ula. Prizes offered to best guess CTS.
 Leisure activities or out-of-hour interests that develop talent, quick wits, reason, observation and con- trol, everything under the sun. Surely were we to so back, we alumnae, we would wonder if we hadn't mistaken some sublimat- ed beehive for dear old Central, or staid old North.
 As for short hand I wish 1t had been compulsory in those old days. I believe that any boy or girl who graduates without 1t now will also r ret it--typewriting too. One never quite achieves real speed or system later. The motto is, "Learn when young. It sticks"
 Chess? At last we have an in- door rival. and a real one, of foot ball.
 Fine Mind Exercise
 Did you ever play chess? Try It. Lay out your kings, queens, bishops, knights, castles and pawns each with different permis- sions and movements and feel your brain stretching. The best mental exerciser on earth is chess. It beats bridge as a think -prodder.
 And all the other things. Stu dent government--swell. Only I sometimes wonder if. in some cases at least, the natural rene. gades and perpetual offenders don't find it 8 convenience? What do the officers do in the case of the drinker, the tough egg and the thoroughly unprincipled? Sad to say there is always small per- centage of the really dishonorable.
 However, let Us give credit to the great majority who are not only in life but living it, in school, and improving themselves, not only by study but through other normal happy outlets. Even the spelling-bee is in the lime-light again. The portent, I think, IS 100 per cent.

frocks with dressmaker touches, you probably will like fur trimmed coat. Fox is the most popular fur with plain, silver fox leading and white fox, dyed to match fabrics, following close be- hind.
 Matching Fur i'm Vogue.
 One particularly handsome town coat, shown in a recent Paris col- lection, is made of soft green wool- en--the shade of messy banks be- side stream-and has a capelet of self-material trimmed with wide band of beige fox.
 Another nice coat (shown here at the left) also carries out the vogue for matching fur. Made of soft gray woolen in an interest ing weave that resembles cross between matelasse and treebark, 1t has a rather wide gray fox collar that fiatters the throat and shoulders. The princess lines mold the figure and the buttons of self material supply a decorative note.
 Attractive too, is the navy blue coat at the left. The fabric looks rough and rather hard, but 1t really Is soft and pliable. The fox collar is navy blue in the center and silvery on the edges. It match .es both the coat material and the silver metal buckle.

, sneeze again on the way up. "It sounds as if the child's developing a cold" remarked. well, I'm not surprised" replied Mrs John- son, "because as far as I can see, all the children in the block seem to have them. It's this changeable spring weather, I guess"
 I looked more closely at Claire when she returned to the table, and sure enough she did look rather watery-eyed. Come over here, young lady," I said, taking her to the window to have a better look DO you want the thermom- eter, Doctor?" put in Mary; Mother always takes our temper ature if she thinks we've got Q cold" "Quite right too," replied, and Mary dashed off to the medi- cine cabinet to get the thermom- eter. Mo-" I decided after taking Claire's temperature, there's no sign of fever yet, but you'd better Claire. "Off you go, Claire" inter- rupted her mother, "and I'll bring your dessert up to you" But Mother!" Tears welled up in Claire's eyes. Cant I go to the movies with you to-night?" "It wouldn't be fair to you or to the people. who sat near you" replied her mother, but I'll stay home with you, Claire, and as soon as the colds all gone, you and will go to the movies together, shall wei" The tears stopped like magic. And have an ice cream first at the drug store?" (Clai-e always knows how to drive good bargain!) Her mother smiled. Maybe" she said, but now run along like godo girl and call me when you're in bed"
 Mrs Johnson knows from long experience how to take care of Q cold. She knows that the best thing to do is to go to bed and stay there until the worst of it is over. She will see that Claire gets extra milk and orange juice and lots of water to drink. And she will do her best to keep Claire iso- lated from the rest of the family until she is better. After all, Claire probably picked up her cold from some Ghild who already had a cold and who was generously spreading the germs right and left among her playmates. I wish tha, child's mother had been wise enough to keep her in bed and away from other children!
 We shall have to give young Claire another lecture on using her handkerchief when she coughs or sneezes, and explain to hei again that cold germs are widely spread through the spray that fl
 caused by a cough or sneeze.

1.-W. K. Gregory, distinguished anthropologist, points out that our primitive ancestors who were first class robbers survived. while the less cunning and crafty perished less cunning and crafty perished. Of course, as civilization became very complex the stealing business had to be limited, but until civili. zation got well under way the most expert and vigorous robbers were the best ancestors to be de- scended from. In present day en- vironment the situation Is quite. 2.-Men and women are always first attracted to one another by physical appearance. But if con- geniality once develops 1t is a vastly stronger guarantee of en- during ompanionship. We often see the disastrous results of ninr- riages based on mere physical att tractiveness when there is no com. mon basis of interests, social back ground, education and outlook.

doorway, he turned and said, Looks like a stick-up of some sort You didn't know whether he was carrying any money with him, did you?"
 'Mr Happ would be the only one who would know that-that is, MT Jarvis Happ, Norman's father"
 "Okay," he said, and left the room.
 She waited until she heard his steps diminishing down the cor- ridor, then ran to the closet and groped around until she found the leather key container.
 She knew that she must get rid of this tell-tale bit of evidence. She held it in her hand, stared heIplessly about her. The door to the corridor seemed to be more a source of danger than of safety. Should she leave the room carrying this key container, she might run into Bob Caise.
 She turned toward the window, looked down into the yard, with its walk, its ornamental shrubbery and it's wrought-iron fence separating the yard from that of the house adjoining. There was summer house, q fountain and a pond of water at the base of the fountain. lilies and fish.
 Millicent stared steadily at the pond. She believed it was possible to toss the key container out of the window so that 1t would hit the pond.
 She raised the window, estimated the distance carefully, held the key container balanced in her hand, so as to determine it's weight. She heard steps in the corridor. Someone was approaching her door. She gave one frantic glance back at the door, then turned to the window and tossed the key container out toward the pond.
 She stood watching it with fas- cinated eyes. It sailed in long are. For a moment she thought it was going too far. Then it dropped rapidly, and she heaved sigh of relief as she saw it splash into the pond.
 She stood there in the window, watching the spalsh subside into eddying waves which rippled the sides of the pond. Suddenly she felt her eyes compelled downward and to one side.
 There, standing beneath the win dov, watching her with peculiar cynical smile twisting the corners of her mouth. was Cynthia Happ. ] Gro Be COntlnuedl

mans search for truth. He main tains that in questions of fact, such as whether the sun Is shining or not shining it is foolish to try to believe what we wish; but in many problems of morals and hu- man relations, such as the ques- ton: Do you like me?" my wish for you to like me may cause me to act so that I honestly believe you like me and so react upon you that you do like me; In other words your wish that some things may be true Is the very thing that makes them come true. As James says: 'How many women's hearts are vanquished by the mere sail- guine insistence of some man that they must love him! The desire for certain kind of truth here brings that special truths exis- tence; and so on in ihnumerable cases" Therefore, you can often let yourself believe what you wish with confidence 1t will at leas, help to make 1t the truth.

 "Oh," Millicent said.

 "Jutil I've been up for at least two hours, I'm not good for any, thing" writes a reader in South Dakota. q seem to be numb. My legs and arms are stiff, and my brain certainly isn't active. What can I do?"
 This is a problem that seems to bother many girls. Perhaps a few waking up rules are in order.
 First of all, allow yourself adc- quate time for setting-up exer- cises. A bath and good break fast before you start the days duties. Nothing is worse than to oyersleep and then to have to dash madIy about, emitting all tbe morning beauty routines that help to make you attractive, mentally and physically.
 If possible, smile when you turn off the alarm. Grumbling about it's familiar ring gets you into d bad frame of mind for the rest of the day. Don't get up immedi- ately. Instead, stretch your arms high above your head, point your feet toward the bottom of the bed, twisting and turning your back like kitten does when he feeis the warmth of an open fireplace. Keep on yawning and stretching until you are wide awake.
 Hop out of bed, drink two glass; es of warm water and then do set ting-up exercises for five minutes. Breathe deeply, jump up and down, swing your arms back and forth as you breathe.
 A bath is the next step. If you can stand a cold shower, by all means take one each morning. However, it's good idea to start with a soapy, lukewarm bath in the tub, finishing with the cold spray.
 Now you're ready for breakfast. Don't snatch a piece of toast As you go past the table, washing 1t down with d few gulps of coffee. Allow at least fifteen minutes to consume some kind of fruit, somc- thing bulky and something that is hot. You may not feel hungry, but eat anyway and sooner than you think, you'll find yourself looking forward to q hearty, quiet breakfast. And you'll realize that it is an excellent way to start the day.
 Al
