Latest Innovations
In Window Shades
Discussed Here

In one of the local department
stores this week, charming young
lady has an interesting story to
tell about, of all things, window
shades! The representative of a
large firm, she travels from Maine to
Florida telling woman about the
latest Improvements in shades and,
incidentally, learning much of the
country's ways from the women she
meets.
For example, the good house
keepers of New England buy the
best shades, scrub them meticulously
and often make them last 16 years.
In the Southern States, shades are
selected to reduce heat and keep
out the glare, while thoughtful wives
in the manufacturing States where
the defense program is in full force
buy type Of shade that keeps out
all light, so that husbands working
at night may sleep by day.
Recent laboratory tests have
proved that light colors, particularly
eggshel and white, will reduce the
summer intake of heat to a greater
degree than dark green. This, of
course, means that you may be cool,
have sufficient light for reading
and still not disturb the color of
an interior by the use of dark shades.
If you want light reduction for
the nursery, it is now possible to
buy a shade that has completely
light-resistant black core, with
white, cream or pastel color painted
over it. Thus, the shade has
delicate appearance but will make
the room absolutely dark when
pulled to the sill.
OF course, green shades may be
an important part of your color
scheme, especially if it is the light
spring green on the list of decora-
tor colors which include sunrose,
chrysanthemum, larkspur and
peachskin. These are not expensive
and will help dress" the windows
for summer when draperies are
removed and sheer curtains used.
This representative will tell the
story of window shades each day
at 3 o'clock during her visit to
Washington this week. Her infor-
nation is practical and helpful, and
her informal talk will offer any
number of good suggestions for
spring household decoration.

Grading the Heel
Newest Feature
In Mems Shoes

If the men in your family are not
addicted to reading the woman's
page, ladies, then pass along some
important news to them, will you?
It's all about foot comfort and a
revolutionary new shoe construction
feature that's just about the most
impressive idea to be introduced in
this century.
In one of our local stores this
week a specialist by the name of
Joseph A. Jung is talking to men
about a new type of heel that is
important. Mr.. Jung pronounced
Young is the originator of the de-
sign, which actually consists of
building the heel of the shoe to fit
the contours of the human heel.
These are not corrective shoes. for
they are designed in the smartest
masculine styles and intended for
every man, whether or not he has
feet that hurt.
The principle is that walking in
f1at-soled shoes, of the kind that
now are available, flattens out the
cushion of the heel and presses on
the nerves. This new design cups
The heel instead, so that it stays
rounded and the natural cushion is
not damaged. We're simply going
back to nature" Mr. Jung explained.
walking on flat-soled shoes is like
driving a car on a fiat tire!'
Because the whole idea of these
cup-like heels which cradle the foot
cushion is fundamental, 1t Is also
logical to assume that such a design
gives more bouyancy and comfort to
the feet. AS Mr.. Jung said, if you
remove the pads from a cat or dogs
paws it causes acute discomfort and
pressure on the nerves, and since
the cushion of the foot serves much
the same purpose, it makes more
sense to cup it gently rather than
squash it fiat.
And here's good news for you
ladies. Shoes with this feature
will be available in feminine form
some time in the spring or early
summer-and we sure can use 'em!
Mr.. Jung realizes our foot problems,
having been connected with the
medical center in Rochester since
1919, and he plans to do something
about making us more comfortable.
But, in the meantime, don't forget
to pass along the good word to all
the men in the family. Our turn
comes later! H.. V.

Dorothy Dix Says ~~~
Women Are Influenced in Their
Dress and Actions by Men

Dear Dorothy DIX was greatly
interested in your article about men
having more influence over women
than women have over men. Your
argument sounds plausible, but still
leaves two questions unsettled to
which I can find no satisfactory
answer. First is, why are women,
young and old, devil-possessed to
get into pants? Most men detest
seeing them in pants, for it makes
them lose feminine charm. Is it
because they wish to be like men
in everything? Second, why do
girls drink? The poor little fools!
Ninety per cent of men hate to see
women drink. Do not misunder-
stand me. I like women and respect
them more than most men do. I
have a wife and three daughters,
all splendid types of American wom-
anhood. Not one of them drinks,
but the girls do, on occasion, go in
for pants. Help, please. Tell me
the answer. w. NJ. S.
Answer-Why women do many
things that they do is mystery
past all finding out. Why women
will put on their heads hats that
make them look like figures of fun,
why they will wear knee-length
dresses that expose how fat or thin
or bowlegged their legs are, why
they will starve themselves into
anemia or T. B. in order to look
like a rack of bones, why they will
wear slacks and shorts looking the
way you say they do, nobody can
even guess.
My guess at it is that they do
these fool things because they think
that it makes them attractive to
men and they are not canny enough
to perceive that woman's best bet
Is femininity and that when she
threw away her seven wells of mys-
terry and put on breeches she made
the mistake of her life.
But all of this merely emphasizes
the truth of my contention that
mems influence over women is all
powerful and that they have only
to use it to make them what they
want to be. The modern girl drinks
and smokes and jitterbugs with men
because the boys won't take her
out on dates unless she does.
But if modesty and purity and
propriety were the price of popu-
larity she would turn into a little
Puritan before you could say Jack
Robinson.

tropical forest background.
Cover the table with a white
cloth. AS centerpiece, use mirror
to represent a lagoon and surround
it with white sand. Around the
lagoon, erect imitation palm trees
with trunks made by stringing a
series of small corks on pieces OF
stiff wire, and topped with fronds
cut from green crepe paper.
Bowls of pineapple, bananas and
coconuts can be used as decorations
at the ends of the table. BY center
ing your efforts on the table, you can
create a striking imitation of q
Hawaiian scene, and get your de-
sired atmosphere with a minimum
of work and materials.
"The girls who preside over the
refreshment table might dress IN
Hawaiian costumes, with wreaths on
their hair, leis of crepe paper around
their necks and grass skirts OF
fringed paper. Perhaps you could
arrange for several boys from the
high school orchestra to play guitars
and ukuleles while refreshments are
being served. They could wear white
shirts and trousers and leis Of orange
crepe paper. Perhaps you can per-
suade them to brown their faces and
to sit cross-legged on the floor while
playing.
You can produce tropical sunlight
in the hall by covering the lights
with yellow cellophane. Suitable re-
freshments might be pineapple and
banana salad, sandwiches with a
filling of deviled ham, coconut cake
and fruit punch
Having cast that breadfruit upon
the waters we went on about our
so-called business. After a few weeks
we heard from M. B. again, as fol-
lows:
Thanks to you, our class night
was a big success. Those 'corky'
palm trees made such hit with the
guests that they were taken as
souvenirs. The mattresses dressed in
Hawaiian costumes created quite
a stir as they mingled with the guests.
Also, we were very fortunate in
having imitation palm trees which
a downtown department store kindly
loaned us.
However, during the serving of
refreshments a regrettable incident
occurred and completely took the
wind out of my sails.
81 wondered if all my committees
hard work had been in vain. Now
I feel pretty cynical about the whole
affair.
Some thoughtless person delib-
erately upset punch bowl in order
to get the last remaining drops. The
results we're a messy tablecloth, a
squashed layer cake and chunks OF
ice all over the place And the way
some of the guests rushed the re-
freshments made me wonder if they
ever saw food before.
Il wonder if you could turn your
column over once to a discussion of
correct behavior at a high school

the chaperons you'd be surprised
how neglected they wereD and other

Talk of War
Is Not for
Children
1t Does Definite
Harm to Their
Young Minds
By A neeIo Pafri

War talk frightens children. They
cannot have any clear idea about
this dreadful business. They feel
afraid because they hear talk about
marching soldiers, great battles,
bombingS and deaths. They hear
war on the radio, see it in the pic
lures, hear about 1t from every side.
1t is bad for the nerves of little
children, indeed all children. We
must do our best to spare them at
every possible occasion.
We might cut down the news from
the battle fronts as 1t comes over
the radio. Arrange to have them
some place else when the radio is
on and the various reports are COM
ing over. We can talk about some
thing more commonplace-the dogs
smartness, the neighbor's new car,
the new spring suit and the need Of
a new way to cook string beans
We can arrange to keep children
excited about their own affairs,
games, trips, excursions and the like.
The more they are occupied with
interests unrelated to the war the
better for us and for them. OF
course, they will hear about the
battles, the fears and the hopes Of
the warning peoples, and they will
be asked to do war work. There will
be no danger of their living in ignor.
ance of the worlds grief. The best
we will be able to do will be to offer
them little relief at home.
Already we are meeting with chill.
dren who are shocked and fright
ened. They are jumpy, ready to get
into panic at the slightest unusual
sound. Eating does not interest
them and their sleep is broken and
restless. They are playing games
that are but the repetition Of Boom,
bang! You're dead" Nothing could
be worse than that.
1t is mistake to teach little chill
dren to hate anybody, to talk about
killing anybody. Hate is a poor way
to establish peace. and peace must
come to this world If we are to 20
on living in it. Hate defers peace
and makes treaties that create new
wars. No good can come of it, and
1t works positive harm in the minds
of little children.
