back OF his party. He would confess
to tricky game of golf, maybe around
a hundred-all conditions being equal.
Last Summer he spent several weeks
in Europe, most of the time in Eng
land studying political situations in
which he was interested. His devO-
ton to young people is partly the re-
suit OF his palling with his son Daniel,
who also went abroad last Summer
but Dan did not travel de luxe, but
went across on freighter and hiked
through several countries of Europe;
stopping in the Youth Hostels of
which England is so proud, he met
English boys and girls in their own
environment. Apropos of this it is
reckoned that from 5000 to 1000
young people availed themselves Of the
American Youth Hostels in Connec-
ticut, Massachusetts, Vermont and
New Hampshire during the past Sum-
mer while hiking, bicycling and some
times luxuriating in an old flivver.

Representative Rogers expects to
return to Washington about October
rs to attend the public hearings on
trade treaty agreements between this
Government and Czechoslovakia. More
than a dozen trade associations and
something like 200 individual manu-
facturers and foreign traders are
planning to appear at the hearings.
Coming as Mrs. Rogers does from a
large manufacturing center in her
State she is particularly interested In
the Importation Of Czechoslovakian

wants all Gods chillun" to have shoes.
but preferably those of Massachusetts
manufacture. Just regular old-fash-
1oned sewed Shoes-not cemeted ones

interested in sheets, pillowcases and
other cotton textiles and in table

double damask dinner napkins which
have contributed thousands to Auntie
Bees income-by the way. her son.

The lady from Massachusetts is also
much interested in the importation
OF cotton damasks and other cotton
goods from Japan which are sold even
lower than the Czechoslovakian goods

seSses a little of that French savoir

even seeing her on the floor of the
House it is the eternal feminine that
attracts one. And yet with the same
ease she discusses public affairs. in
dustries and general business condi-
tions-even the fine points of protec-
tive tariff, with informed and A ouick
intelligence that surprises one. The
years she spent with her late hus-
oand in public life may account for
ths-but at the bottom Of it all is her
Yankee astuteness.

Republican Headquarters
Plain and Unadorned.
The present Offices Of the Republi-
can national chairman have not the
luxurious appearance of the suite of
the former chairman in the Barr
Building. The walls are of a lifeless
neutral shade; the furnishings simple
and plain, and there is everywhere
evidence Of strict economy notwith-
standing the fact that contributions
to the chest are coming in at a fairly
rapid rate. There was much satisfac-
ton expressed that hundreds of dol
lars were coming in from small sub
scribers-some of them as small as a
quarter or dollar, and each donor ex-
pressing optimism about the outcome
Of the 1888 elections. Judge Hamilton
interprets these minor subscriptions
as evidence that the rank and file of
the people of the United States are
aroused to the situation and the need
for retrenchment in national expend-
itures.
Judge Hamilton's Office looks out on
Lafayette Square and the White
House, the goal of his ambition for
the success of his party in 1910, is
diagonally across the park. Although
1t was one of those gripping, gray,
cherries days that come in the early
Fall when the poet sang of the melan-
choly days, and the foliage of the
trees is a lifeless green in prepara-
ton for the Autum wardrobe of bril-
liant colors, the national chairman
looked extremely happy and enthusi-
astic-as seen through the glass door.
An intensive campaign is being ush-
cred in and ways and means discussed
for the big push which is to take place
next Summer out in Chicago-this is
not to be called grass roots" it is
understood, as the last one failed to
sprout in healthy condition-but
Is to - a prediction get-together
for consolidating plans which are
being made in different parts of the
States. A knitting kgether the loose
ends of the old party 80 many years
in power and sweeping the New Deal
from the country.
Judge Hamilton Entered
Politics Early in Life.
The extreme faith Judge Hamilton
Is said to have in the youth of the
party is the outcome of his own expe-
rience which began at an early age.
He is As years old and has had a life
crowded with activity from the time
he was graduated from the public
schools to his graduation at Phillips
Academy, Andover, at the age of 21.

DEAR MRS. POST: II boy says
something complimentary about
the way q girl looks. what is she sup
posed to answer so that she doesn't
appear to have peacock traitsf e
Answer-She smiles and says Thank
you" She won't seem to have pea
cock traits" unless they are suggested
by her own manner. In other words,
she must not take his compliment
conceitedly nor show more than .
momentary look Of pleasure. This
rule holds true not only for very young
girls but for grown women-and for
men too for that matter.

DEAR MRS, POST: I have friend
whom I've known for long while;
in fact, We went to school together.
He left town to work in another city
and as he can't get home often, has
suggested that I come to see him and
stay in woman's hotel. My family
has no personal objection to him and
has always considered him a very fine
person. But mother is afraid that
other people might say something un-
pleasant about us. Will you give us
your opinion?
Answer-My first impression is that
1t would not do at ALL Not for
moment. But since your family has
no objection, can only answer that
they, who know the circumstances
better than I do. are better able to
Judge. But even so. it is only fair to
tell you frankly that quite apart from
his or your innocent intentions, such
visits would certainly destroy your
reputation for good taste-if not for
moras-unless you take a grown men,
Der OF your family, or perhaps an older
friend OF your mother, with you
Merely q friend of your own age
wouldn't alter the situation.

DEAR MRS. POST: I am the
youngest girl in this club but
even so havs been elected president.
Due to my age. I guess, am having
a hard time keeping discipline. We
always have a business meeting first
after which the rest of the time is
spent In conversation and entertain-
ment. There are, however, several
girls who talk together from the
moment they arrive all through the
evening. and needless to say. they are
proving very annoying. I have said
something from the platform about
saving the social session until later,
but they 60 right on talking and am
afraid to do anything more which
might make them disagreeable. Can
you suggest a tactful way to make
these girls keep quiet?
Answer-Why not ask the other
members, who must also feel as YOU
40. to help you by audibly flushing"
them when they refuse to do as you
ask? II necessary, get all these same
others who elected you to start a
whispering campaign" against talk
ing. In other words. the takers can
not long escape being aware of the
current against them, and it isn't
likely that they will want to make
themselves generally unpopular.
