Fashions for Teachers.

An unusual slant on fashions was
presented Tuesday in one Of the local
shops to a group of 80 teachers from
city and nearby schools in which
Spring modes were shown that are
practical and easily wearable and yet
employ lots Of style interest.
Often the teacher is 80 removed
from the changing style picture on
account of her class room duties that
she Is apt to underestimate the i'm
portance that clothes play In the life
Of every business woman and wears
her last years suit or coat when she
should send them along to some
needier person and treat herself to
the tonic that new clothes always
bring to a woman.
And so these style-minded teachers
were given treat and shown suits,
coats, afternoon and evening frocks
modelled on members Of their group
amid much applause and general
feeling of good fellowship, including
. cup Of tea and what goes with it.
Outstanding in the show were two
afternoon dresses, identical In design,
that were chosen as suitable for the
very tall and average figure, and
equally smart on both. They were

Prepare

Curiosity With SIM

BY ANGELO PATRI.


EVERY mother of little children
knows the shock Of hearing that
her little one, her baby, scarcely out
Of her arms, has been discovered at
game she never taught him, never
dreamed he would learn. Yet sex
plays are common to all children be-
cause sex interest Is common to all
children. The only way to avoid the
harmful plays Is to educate the chill.
dren ahead Of time 50 as to remove
the necessity for such play express
sions.
All children are curious about sex.
Their curiosity must be satisfied whole
somely or they will continue to search
for the satisfaction it demands. Don't
ask M how you are to do that because
every child differs from every other
child in the matter of his learning,
and every parent differs from every
other in the manner Of his thinking
and doing. The idea is that parents
provide themselves with the right
material, study it until it becomes part
of their thinking and they can ex-
press it casually and easily as they
can express their feelings about the
election.
It is a mistake to hush-hush chill
dren about sex matters. They ask
questions according to the stage of
their development. Early In life they
have only the passing curiosity that
they have about things in general to
stimulate their questions. AS they
grow their experiences motivate their
wisely adjusted to their needs; they
are to be given only the information
they are seeking at the time. No
expositions, no doctrines, no morali-
ties. Just simple, truthful statements
that stand alone.
Because there are still people who
think it better to train children in
ignorance and term 1t innocence, par
ents have to be careful of the method
and the matter of their teaching. It
does not do to have q child go out,
and, in the pride Of his superior know
ledge, begin instructing the children
Of the community. That way trouble
lies. Again, every parent must be
his own judge in the matter.
Whenever a child is found max
ing q mistake in this direction, in
stead OF getting frightened take second
thought and know that you failed this
child by not preparing him for the
situation that has called out the error.
In this, as in many other matters
affecting childhood and adolescence,
knowledge is safety.
And don't imagine that because
you have preserved stony silence
on the whole matter other people
have been as reticent. They have
been quite otherwise, as you would
| discover II you listen to some of the
children talking on their way to and
from school, in the parks and play
grounds, and in secluded retreats
where they flee to escape the prying
adults eye. Unless you begin early
and keep gently and steadily teaching,
somebody else takes your place.
Mr.. Patri will give personal atten-
ton to inquiries from parents and
school teachers on the care and de-
velopment Of children. Write him in
care Of this paper, inclosing 3-cent
stamped, self-addressed envelope for

Hands Need
Care to Be
Beautiful
Constant Treatment
With Cream and
Lotion Required.
BY ELSIE PIERCE.

IA AHASSNs
A WISE young blade said re-
Gently: Some women don't let
the left hand know what the right
is doing so much so that when
they meet over bridge game the pair
certainly don't look like mates. True.
the right hand usually does most of
the dirty work, but see by the
ads that there's no excuse for the
give-away. What do you say, Miss
Pierce?"
I'm afraid I'll have to admit it's
true. for I've seen 1t myself. And II
work were an excuse we would see
many, many more ''sandpaper" hands.
The mere fact that any number OF
women who do their own cleaning
and washing and similar chores can
manage to keep their hands looking
like thing hands" is proof
that it can be done.
The hands either tell tales about
us or speak eloquently for us, more
50 than our faces, In fact. They de-
serve at least as much care as the
face. They get that much more abuse
They are immersed in water, washed
with soap and water much more than
the fact, meaning that the natural
oils are exhausted to q greater extent
They are subject to Just as much
exposure. When housework is done,
unless gloves are worn, the hands are
subjected to household dust, to strong
cleansing agents. Put them all together
and you have the reason why hands
that are abused and not given COM
pensating care soon look wrinkled
and feel sandpapery.
But add q little compensating care
and see how quickly and gratifyingly
the hands respond. Treat them to a
gentle massage with a hand cream
every time they are washed. Use
the same rich, nourishing cream on
them at night that you do on your
face. In fact, merely use the little
! leftover cream for the backs of the
hands, 60 through the same move
ments you use In washing the hands
II you can wear cotton gloves without
feeling uncomfortable, slip them on
at bedtime after giving the hands a
generous creaming. You'll be amazed
at the splendid overnight repair work
When washing the hands make
sure that you dry them very care
fully. Careless drying contributed to
chapping and roughness-particus
larly If the hand lotion doesn't follow
Immediately. Winter winds contribute
to redness and roughness, but again
creaming is the best way out. Some
women 60 through . severe Winter
with their hands looking lily white
and others have Winter hands even
| in Spring. Once more it is a matter
OF consistent care-and If the right
hand does more work 1t should have
more cream. It really isn't difficult
to hand yourself beauty-right and
left.
My bulletins on hand care and the
home manicure will cheerfully be sent
to you II you will include self-ad-
dressed, stamped (3-cent) envelope
with your request.

ing and expecting us to clap right on
our heads without a word Of protest.
Those exhortations about getting used
to them sound little dubious, but
probably these extremes will subside
after a bit and headlines will become
more normal as the season progresses.
No doubt, it was the trend in coif-
3ures that started the hats on the flip
pant path they are taking, or was it
just the general swing toward the ro-
mantle mood in fashions barking back
to the 1930s, the gay COS and the
Floradora girls for inspiration. At any
rate the picture is varied and contains
everything from no crowns to high
crowns, and no brins to very wide
ones. Surely there is something in be-
tween these extremes that should suit
each of us. Let us see what some of
the outstanding silhouettes are, as
shown at the Paris openings.
THE quaint poke bonnet of the direc-
toire period is seen as well as the
bonnet-toque; the tiny tricorne and the
little fiat plateau are both romantic
fashions; there are canotiers, small
and large toques, berets and other
coiffure-revealing shapes. including
those tiny round caps called "calots."
AS to materials there are numerous
finely pressed thin straws as we'll as
the more rustic, coarser types, includ-
ing the nubby thistle straw, which is
new. Linen-looking straw is good, and
so is grosgrain ribbon, lightweight
felt and stitched taffeta.

Spring is the universal revival OF trim
mings Of all kinds, splasning color
and contrast, and the definite return
of more detailed millinery technique.
Flowers are blooming on all the most
Springlike hats. There are many
feather wings, butterfly ornaments
and wells fluttering in every direction.
Long chiffon wells or scarfs used
as back streamers are exceedingly
important and are found on some
OF the newest turbans. For instance,
a navy blue, plain, close, mushroom
shape has two streamers Of royal blue
at the back. 1t is grand idea for
carrying out particular color scheme.
In another squatty turban the roll
brim is wound diagonally with thistle
rose, royal blue and dark blue folds
of chiffon, with one color used as
streamers.
Velvet and grosgrain ribbon are
both equally smart as trimming and
this season are often combined with
flowers. An of1-the-face straw, with
angular outline forming almost a
square background for the face, uses
spray OF poppies and daisies d.
rectly over the forehead bandeau. This,
Of course, needs very youthful face.
A black trtcorne suitable for restau-
rant dining has two flower rosettes
OF powder blue and dusty pink on the
left side and black lace veil that
reaches almost to the waiStline in
back.

I INEN bakuk makes a smart suit
hat when 1t has a brim piping Of
patent leather and a patent bow on
the under side Of the p-turned Breton
brim. The Spanish sailor is another
popular type. Often it has very
small crown. In one such instance
grosgrain ribbon in green, red and
yellow helped to carry out the Spanish
idea on fine black straw.
The little stitched navy taf1eta pan
cake with no crown at all, stays on
the head with q ribbon band Of coro-
nation red that passes through sits
across the top, and then ties around
under the hair at the back. Those
hair bands that are shown on so
many hats make it possible to wear
them at perilous angles and yet keep
them anchored. Also these wider
bands add to the appearance OF the
hats, especially when worn with the
hair rolled around the back.
An interesting model from Agnes
Is called the "Zuyder Zee" toque. It
is fashioned Of sheer lace over tadeta
with a gold ornament clipped to the
edge, and was inspired by the pointed
colts Of the girls Of Zuyder Zee, whom
Nine. Agnes saw in Holland at the
time Of the royal wedding.
The hats shown above are only two
Of perfectly lovely collection which
arrived here the first Of the week
and were all designed by Marion Vail
in her studio in New York. She has
unlimited new ideas on good looking
headlines and smart color combina-
tions, In both romantic and palmer
modes, but she believes that the 1897
version OF the 1907 hat is one of the
seasons best styles.
And so we leave you in much the
same undecided state Of mind about
your Spring bonnet, but we can say
that if you shy away from all this
mid-Victorianism there is always the
classic tailored felt which continues
to be shown each season in the best
Of materials and colors and Is always
the acme of good taste for the we'll
dressed, tailored woman.

"A WAITING line is an American
institution with which girl
should never try to firt. If you think
you can wedge your way into the

going to make up for all the time he

The rule is first come, first served,

the average American man change his
mind about that.
Our advice Is to stick to the rule.
II you start using up your charm on

Dorothy Dix Says
Struggles of Mothers and Wives for Love
of Same Man Tragedy.

HENCE we have the common spec
tacle Of the mother and the wife
fighting over the man they both love,
like dogs over bone. Each is deter
mined to have him for her own. In
their mad jealousy Of each other they
lose sight Of the fact that they are
sacrificing the poor victim OF their
passion. No man is ever put in a
crueler position than the one who is
called upon to decide between the two
women he loves and to both Of whom
he owes loyalty and allegiance.
What makes this tragedy Of the
mother-in-law and daughter-in-law
so bitterly ironic is that 1t Is % un-
necessary. There Is no need for
the struggle which breaks hearts and
tears families apart and which, Stats
tics say, send more couples to the d.
Vorce court than any other cause. be-
cause the love which a son gives his
mother and that which husband
gives his wife do not conflict. They
are no more the same emotion than
wine is water. A man loves his mother
because she was the benediction OF
his childhood, but he loves his wife
because she is the comrade he has
chosen to march by his side through
life.
1t Is a pity that women so seldom
realize this. 1t would save them such
barrels of tears, so many tormenteo
hours, so many ghastly pretenses OF
friendliness they do not feel If they
could only see that a mans love for
his wife augments his love and ap-
probation for his mother because it
makes him understand women better
and that husbands faithfulness to
his mother is the measure of the low
atty he will give his wife, and that
there Is no cause for Jealousy between
them.
The in-law relationship can be sue,
pleasant one and bring so muc,
happiness if only mothers-in-law anG
daughters-in-law will just love Johl
instead Of fighting over him.
