With the advent of hoopskirts, we
realized what would happen, and
now that the monastic silhouette
has taken its place in the fashion
world, the need for a tiny waist is
even more urgent.
This new trend of fashion is really
sweeping the country. 1t Is the
motif, you know, that boasts very
full skirt and wide belt to draw
IN the fullness at the waist and
allow the rest of the dress to billow
about in folds. You may know it
as the angel dress. the Algerian or
Arabian style, or by any number of
other titles, but whatever you may
call it you will no doubt be the
proud possessor of at least one
model of this type.
Shopping about the other day, we
noticed predominance of such
gowns. Amazing news, too, is the
fact that more and more prints are
being used in winter clothes. Done
IN a paisley pattern, the monastic
silhouette has gained great popu-
larity and the effect is really charm
ing. The need for color in your
wardrobe this season may be easily
satisfied through the use of these
prints.
Not so incidentally, the use of
color is one of the most important

A good flower holder in a

position. The flowers are placed
at various heights, with the
larger and heavier ones dis
tributed about the lower levels
to maintain the proper balance.
Heavy flowers on very long

items of fashion this season. Espe-
cially color with black. One Of the
most charming models is q black
dress with panels of aqua and tan
gerine adding really smart note
to the gown. Another frock boasts
an entire top Of blue sequins over
skirt Of black crepe. The sequins
extend almost to the hip-line to
form a long-waisted effect, that is
most attractive.
In the monastic silhouette, We
saw one Of the cleverest costumes
we've found lately. 1t comprises a
simply cut black crepe dress with an
unbelievably wide girdle laced up
the front. With the outfit is a sep
arate, foOr-length skirt, which may
be attached in moment to form a
perfectly charming dinner dress. II
you happen to be one of those very
busy career girls you should find
this dress indispensable-both from
the viewpoint Of economy and effl-
cheney. 1t Is a two-in-one model
that really should be a life-saver.
Outstanding this season, too, are
the evening wraps-all OF which en-
phasize the tiny waistline. Two
handsome models were seen re-
cently-we're still OF our shopping
spree-and both were flattering and
adaptable. First, there was an even
ing wrap with a hoop effect. The
model Of wine velvet was braided
around the bodice to emphasize the
waist and the same braid repeated
at the bottom of the skirt to form
the hoop. 1t should be perfectly
lovely with your old-fashioned
gowns.
The other was a tiny jacket Of
lastex-velvet in = quilted effect
called a rumba jacket. It was
tightly caught In at the waist and
f1ared out in back to form the
quaintest, most amusing wrap you've
ever seen. A matching muff with
pocket inside completes the thor
oughly Victorian outfit.
Speaking with one Of the gentle
men who really knows his fashions,
we discovered several outstanding
things. First, that the monastic sill
houette should remain for some time
into the cruise clothes
and on into the spring. Second, that
full skirts in any form are definitely
in, and also that lingerie touches In
the form OF dainty lace sleeves and
other details are to be seen on many
Of the newer dresses.
Monastic silhouette, hoopskirt
dresses and wraps, huge and most
attractive girdle+all bear out our
theory that a tiny waist is the sea-
sons biggest asset.

An eminent psychologist, who
spends his life trying to unriddle
the marriage conundrum, asserts
that men do not marry to get INTEL

this is true, speaking by and large,
for nothing is more obvious than
that feminine brains are not a mas
culine dish unless they are scram-
bled.
It is a well-established fact that
q college degree is handicap to a

Any little Dumb Dora can marry in
circles all around Miss Intelligentsia.

So 1t Is only too true that it Is
the rare man who marries to get an
intellectual companion. The aver
age man never even considers what

to the office for criticism, and that
meant a judgment on the teachers
work sent down from on high. Miss
Carrie, being young, which is no
qualification for fourth-grade
teacher, was excited and nervous.
The principal walked into the
room. The children looked up and
then concentrated on work once
more, or seemed to. Miss Carrie
stood facing the class, the principal,
with his back toward them. A wad of
paper expertly flipped, described
a neat arc in the air and landed
nicely on the august head. His hair
was thick and he did not feel the
blow, but poor Miss Carrie saw and
felt the fell deed. The principal

"You did, too. Didn't he. class?"
Now most OF the class had had
their heads down, and most Of
them were essentially honest, and
those who might have seen clearly
were not going to tell. Silence
reigned.
Nobody but you would do such
a thing. I know you did it and so
does the class" You can see how
inexperienced Miss Carrie was with
fourth grade.

prove I did," said Kelly.

and don't come back to class until
you own you did 1t and apologize

Sure, Ill go home and bring my
mother. And I won't apologize for
what didn't do, either"
Now Kelly's mother was a good
mother, and did her best to rear her
children well, but if there was zone

THAT is. you blame him for it.
Now II you had seen him throw it
and told me so, I'd spank him with
my own hand. and not wait for his
father to do 1t, and I'd take him to
the principal and make him apolo-
giZe for his misbehavior. But I
wouldn't punish him on anybody's
guess. And my advice to you is just
this: Don't try to pin anything on
one of these children unless you
have it in your hand. Now just put
him back where he belongs and keep
him busy and you'll get along all
right with him, and the rest, too."
And that is my advice also.
Don't speak until you know. Don't
ask the other children a question
about 1t. Just keep still and wait
until something happens to make
speaking imperative and your
course clear. Don't ask for apollo
gies. They are useless. When chill
dren feel sorry they say 50, and If
they do not, saying 50 is worse than
keeping still about 1t, I'm sure.
Don't make discipline public mat
ter. Keep 1t between you and the
child concerned. with no listeners,
no onlookers. Mostly keep quiet.

CENTRAL TEAM. .
TO DEFEAT FOR.
|NTERH|GH TITLE.
By PAUL BEACH

1nterhigh football goes into its
first doubleheader tomorrow with
Central's powerful eleven engaging
the injury-riddled Anacostians at
Eastern and EaStern'S once de-
Ifeated champions meeting Wilson
at Western.
Despite a special fate that seems
to be reserved for gridiron predic-
ters, we will go down the line i'm
mediately in favor of Central and
the Lincoln Parkers.
In the first place, the Clifton
Streeters are too heavy and pow,
erful for even a full strength In,
dian team and with Coach Rol-
land Lund's aces out of the lineup
because Of injuries, the margin is
even wider. Finally, to adopt that
ever dangerous comparative score
basis, Central topped Western,
14-7, while the Raiders downed
Anacostia, 27-0.
HARD BATTLE EXPECTED
Wilson's Presidents figure to
give the Fasteners a harder battle
in the other half of the twin bill,
as Coach Carl Heintel has appar-
emily developed a fairly strong de-
fensive club. Nevertheless, more
man-power in both varsity and
reserve ranks should tell the tale
in what would be the champions
first triumph.
Viewing the whole series, We
are inclined to go even farther
out on a limb and pick Central
as the gridders to beat for the
interhigh title this year, despite
McKinley's lead.
Attempting to justify what may
seem a rash early-Season choice,
we point out that Coach Hardy
Pearce's charges have downeo
Western, a team that grows
stronger with each appearance
IeCh must meet tne Georgetown

Soning of three more tiltS.

and an October % clash with

at disadvantage with only the

Finally, Central is team that

while Tech showed definitely ir
