Paris - CUP) - Plaids are used for everything from arm chairs and ash trays to evening dresses.
 One of the most charming plaid interpretations is at Nina Riccfs- rainbow plaid accordion pleated chiffon evening gown worn under a flowing green cape. She also achieves a startling effect with a mammoth red and green plaid ac- cordion pleated wool dress under a bright green coat.
 Alix is especially fond of plaids. She flares vari-colored plaid surah into a voluminous demi- jacket. She puts full plaid panels on the jacket of navy ensemble. She uses green, yellow and black plaid for a short jacket, it's front panels extending into a sort of over-Skirt. Green and mauve plaid make simple wool dress worn under black coat. Blue and yellow plaid line an Alix navy blue coat.
 At Helm Jeunes FilleS where the fashionable matron of to- morrow gets her early training in what's smart - plaids are used frequently for their youthful eff feet. Pink and white plaid taf- feta lines the long slim grey coat and makes the blouse of charm ing three piece ensemble. Yellow and blue plaid comprises the long coat of a slate blue ensemble, the suit trimmed in the same plaid. The motif is reversed in a blue and white plaid dress worn under plain white jacket trimmed in plaid.
 Tailleurs have subtle plaid like the Nina Ricci suit plaided in vague salmon. Plaid is also prominent in the knit world. A kilt like knitted skirt is worn with green suede jacket.
 For more dressy occasions, Heim's has red, white and blue finely pleated crepe afternoon dress. Main bocher uses the plaid theme for one of the most unusual afternoon coats of the season. In black and white, it looks more like dress with a full skirt, bolero and tremendous black tafetta sash at the back.
 Marquisette. net and organza ts frequently plaided for short date dresses with full skirts and elbow sleeves. Pastel plaided organza sees a lot of use in the evening world.
 Rose Descat lets plaid go tC the head in number of brigh colored hats. She prefers gay ly plaided round off the fact compromise. Though pushed bacE on the head. it is placed sligh' slant to the left.

 Some of our realists are so anxi- ous to keep facts on the stage, and fiction in wings, that they scoff at our little pretenshes. But let's forget them and not bother with people who won't allow for imagination.
 There is so much that is de- lightfully numerous in childhood, early childhood especially. It does not answer to formula. but may be very useful. nevertheless.
 The child of two is going to en- joy many fictitious personalities as he can, so reach for him through his dreams.
 Easily Frightened
 On the other hand, it is so easy to scare the wee folk They are so very serious about their mys- tical figures. Let us keep their bears kindly bears, and their big bad wolves funny and frustrated wolves.
 I suggest using the idea often, as little children react more fav- orably to the indirect approach.
 Their sense of the dramatic changes form, but 1t never disap- pears. The next stage is the en- gineer. or the cowboy, with little boys; or a fairy or an angel, or just Mrs. James," with little girls.

WOMAN'S REALM :

 Yourself
By Alicia Hart
NEA Service Staff Writer

NEA 0eKVICC OknAA VvhHSSA
 About month ago I invented a game" a sparkling young business woman said yesterday. "It's called DO I Look Like That?' and I play it when riding in buses, street cars, subways or just walking along the street. If I keep on playing it-and it's so much fun that don't see how I can stop-I think there will be a noticeable improvement i'll my appearance"
 To play the game, she simply starts looking at others - really looking, not just glancing up now and then. When she sees a girl whose posture is nearly perfect, who carries head high, chest up, stomach in, backbone straight, she asks herself the question. When she sees a pair of rundown heels or crooked stocking seams, she asks 1t again.
 Occasionally she specializes, mo- ticing only feet one day, hands and gloves the next. makeup the next, dIlU SO lAO AOOhAAAo down-the- attitude involved, of course. She's as interested in the beautifully groomed as the dowdy. Naturally, if you really look at people carefully, your own ap- pearance is just bound to be im- proved. You can't see a truly ar- tistically made-up face without resolving to put your own make up on more carefully. Or watch a woman whose step is so light that she seems fairly to dance along the street without wanting to improve your own plodding gait.
 Furthermore, game which encourages you to study peoples faces, to watch their expressions come and go. just possibly may make you a more charming per- son yourself. The more one knows of the lives of others, the more rnderstandingly sympathetic one becomes. Looking at people makes you think more about people anc less about yourself. That itself isn't a bad thought for spring.
 NEXT: Looking at yourself.

that matters is that she is free of people for a while.
 For women as rule give a great deal more of themselves to other people than men give or themselves. They try 70 amuse, to sympathize, to listen atten- lively.
 Housewives shoulder their hus- bands worries and all the grow ing pains of their children. They rejoice along with each member of the family over good luck, and feel responsible when the home isn't as pleasant as it might be.
 In short, they absorb all the moods that go on around them, while men shed others moods the way an umbrella sheds water.
 So, sometime every day the woman who is constantly with people should get away from them and relax as completely as cat on sunny window sill.
 Ir that time she shouldn't have to respond to single human be- ing. It's her time to catch up with herself, to smooth out her thoughts, to pick up her boise.
 If you ever hear a woman say she hates to be alone, you know at least one thing about her. That she isn't really happy and we'll poised person.
 You'll also probably find her dull. For the person is complete ly lacking n imagination who can't use up a few hours a day, without anyone's help.

RAISING A FAMILY-NO. 53 Bv Olive Roberts Barton
Recently I watched a nurse play

Recently watched nurse play ing with two tiny girls-twins.
 There was much hiding and laughter and screaming. And by- and-by Fraulein, or Madamoiselle or just Miss White, called one twin Lettuce" and the other "Pe- ter Rabbit. Now l knew. One Of these small creatures was being chased by the other in a new yer sion of tag, Peter chasing Lettuce for all she was worth.
 Once, when Nurse made a mis- take and called Peter Rabbit Let tuce," the real Lettuce was very mad. She was so proud of her role that she permitted no in fringement. She did not mind being hunted as long as she was a nice juicy salad, and even though her bunny sister might catch her and eat her up, the thrill of being something different more than made up for her fate.
 Lessons Out to Play
 Our two-year-old love to im- personate so very much that the alert mother may use it to put across little lessons. It is a me- dium, so to speak, through which we may approach the driest kind of ethics.
