New York Center Excitement Over This Couns Style

Place in the living room a two.
TERED table in the popular Duncan
Phyfe design. 1t is sturdily built
Of solid mahogany and richly fin-
ished. The top tier can be used
for holding knick-knacks or small

ments. These are very unusual and
attractive and would go especially
well in the hunt country"
trash burner on legs is made
of heavy duty sheet iron and
painted black so that it is not an
"eyesore." Just the thing to have
to burn up the daily trash that COL
lects so quickly around the house.
A suggestion for the bride: Be
sure to take care of that lovely
dining table by using heat proof
mats. These are water and heat
resistant and are washable. They
are topped with imitation leather
in either walnut. mahogany or white
finish, and a nice feature is the fact
they fold in three sections. to be
placed in a drawer of the serving

One of the latest electrical ap-
pliances is the offender" It is
an ideal gift for a man who likes
TO experiment with mixing bever-
ages, for it blends endless drinks
in a smooth, new way. It is an
equally good gift for the woman

them Is one of the fundamental
impulses of the human heart.
Men want children because sons
that carry on their names are their
earthly immortality.
Now, of course, children are not
an unmiXed blessing. Sometimes
they are glory and sometimes a
curse. Nor will anybody deny that
they are care and a responsibility
and an expense, and that they bring
work and worry and anxiety in their
train.
But there is nothing for nothing
in this world, and even with all
the cost children are, taking them
by and large, they are worth the
price. Regarded merely from the
entertainment point of view. a baby
puts a pug dogs nose out of joint
as a household pet.
And you are wrong in thinking
that children never repay their
parents in love and gratitude for
all they have done for them. Look
about you and see that there is
hardly a home in which some old
person is not being supported and
tenderly cared for by their chill
dren.
No denying. either, that some
times children do come between
their parents when the husband
wants to CAD and his wife has to
stay at home and take care of the
youngsters, but millions of other
couples are held together by baby
hands. the frailest and the strong
est tie that can bind two people
together.
So there you are, and I think
your theories about children being
brats instead of angels will change
in spite of your present views to
the contrary.

of his studies and the activities we
want him to engage in, he won't
have much energy or interest left

How about scholarships" we in
qulred. Most national fraternities
have been making an earnest effort
to improve the standing in their
chapters

"In fact, the grand chapter is con-
stantly on our necks to boost our
rating among the fraternities on our

up from 14th two years ago to 9th
last year. We did it by watching
the high school grades of our pros

classmen supervise their studies dur

a fellow gets a good start, he can
keep his grades up all right.
I'VE like honor men. of course,
but we like them to be active on the
campus, too. Year before last, two
of our seniors ranked high scholas-

I'VE don't worry much about the

urging them to get dates for our

learn to dance if they cant-but
most of them can by the time they
get to college. We also have course

Dorothy Dix Says 80
Children Are Blessing to Home
Despite Cost of Rearing Them

Dear Dorothy DiX-You and lot
of other people have the idea that
it is wonderful to have children. I
totally disagree with you. When one
brings children into the world. he
Immediately gives himself a new
duty and obligation. for parents
must feed and clothe and shelter
their offspring until they are at
least l8 years old. Then, when their
children are Self-Supporting, they
don't want to take care or their
fathers and mothers And, if they
do it. it is only from a sense of duty
Children complicate marriage. for
if woman neglectS her husband
for her children and lets her ap-
pearance depreciate. he has a grand
excuse for his philandering. Also
if all the family income is spent on
the children and there is no money
for entertainment nor time for going
about, marriage can't help but be-
come boring and fiat. In spite of
all this, all the boys I 60 with seem
to want children and are very stub
born about it. I am going on 81 and
my ideas are pretty we'll established,
therefore I don't expect to change
or be changed, and I think that
children are pest instead of a
blessing. What do you think?
TOO OPTIMISTIC.
Answer-Well. may I begin by
expressing the hope that your ideas
on any subject are not so fixed
before you are 81 that you can't
change them I should hate to
think that at your tender age your
brain is so petrif1ed that no thought
can enter it. and that you will never
be any wiser, any broader, any more
tolerant than you are now.
Now as regards children. I am
afraid you will have to reconcile
yourself to them, as the desire for

surprising. And the same silly hat,

lutte strangers to smile at you in a
restaurant All right. so they're
smiling at the hat, but it proves
something.
Speaking of hats, Florence Reich
man has a smart new collection in
her Fifty-second street salon this
season. She maintains that there
are really only two ways to wear
the new bonnets: way back on your
head behind the tremendously popu-
lar pompadour: or tilted far forward
and set perfectly straight on the
head.
And we still think that was actress

small town. We've run into people
who didn't know we were in town
in cafes. on Fifth avenue and once
even at Forty-second and Broadway.
We've found them congregating at
the same places week in and week
out and knowing more about each
other than you think New Workers
ever know about their neighbors.
We've found them casual, and full
of a love of fine music and paint
ings and books And we've found
them friendly to extreme, or en-
tirely impersonal-depending upon
the way you want it.

It was amazing to see the number
of fashion writer's who came to town
for the big Fashion Futures" show.
At the press table we met girls from
