According to psychologists, the
chances are pretty good that Gentle
never would have taken the tumble
if he hadn't worried about ii so much
that every time he passed the dan
generous spot he didn't have full con-
troll of his sense of balance.
To further illustrate the scientists
point: If YOU place a six-inch wide
plank on the ground you can easily
walk it, but suspend that same board
between two windows, high in the air,
and the chances are you will fall be-
cause the element of fear changes
your ability to control yourself.

Don't Look for Trouble

IF YOU go around worrying that
certain something unpleasant is
going TO happen 10 you, the odds
are good that il will and exactly as
you expected.
Psychologists have complied enough
case histories TO prove this is so.
The most recent case popped UP
in Boston For 13 years Anthony
Gentle had been nursing a fear of
falling over low railing leading TO
his third floor apartment
Finally il happened and Mr.. Gentle

IF ALL the thousands of American
women who wear Stacks were 10
descend on the little town of Pana,
ul.-they'd hear an out
spoken and emphatic
thing or two from viii F.
Jordan.
Mr.. Jordan's vocation is
interpreting the law as
justice of the peace. His
avocation is Directing
sometimes spectaCularly-
TO women who insist on
wearing the pants, pub
liCly.
Not long ago, when Mrs.
Jordan was out of town,
her spouse got TO thinking
about his pet peeve. He raided his
Wife'S wardrobe and Shrouded his 73-
year-old frame in her best Sunday
dress. He plunked what he called
monkey hat" on his head and
headed for his office.
Two cops, spurred to action by an
impromptu committee of incensed
and insuited women, accosted the
dowdy pseudo-dowager.
Judge" they said, you'd better
go back home n change your
clothes. 1t isn't right, you imper-
sonating a lady"
That" snapped Mr. Jordan, lis
just what / wanted you to say. Now
maybe you'll arrest some of those
women who are wiggling and wag-
Cling in britches-and charge them
with impersonating a man."
Then the judge resumed his dra-
N0ff 10 L., IL.
bers, without further interference
from the police-and went through
the motions of dispensing justice.
Thus did another futile skirmiSh
help to keep alive the battle for pants
way back in 1880.
The original troops in the bitter
war called themselves Saint Simon
lists. The hybrid uniform they wore
shown in the old engraving at the
worth fighting for today. Anyway,
they lost their scrap and, in man
ner Of speaking, their pants.
But the we-want-pants movement
didn't die. 1t broke out again in 1850,
in England, of all places. The female
generalissimo this time was Mrs
Amelia Boomer, the courageous and
crusading editor of a magazine for
women called The Lily.
Thousands of "bloomer girls" raj
lied to her brassy trumpet call. Some
progress-but not much-was made
along the difficult road to Slackville.
But the enemy prevailed again, as
had happened in France a generation
before, and the maids and matrons
nf Britain wont haCk IN fhair Uouyy,c
and petticoats.
Between Mrs. Boomers day and
the present, other women have done
much to soften up the opposition.
They flew in the face of tradition and
