Their History Parallels the Nations

was graduate Of 1908. and Col. Dupuy
feels that the real West Point dates
from Mai. Thayers appointment to the
superintendency by President Monroe In
1917. Thayer was father Of the present
academy. And yet the military genius
Of Its early decades was Dennis Hart
Mahan. father Of Alfred Thayer Mahan.
renowned for his studies Of sea power.
The author feels it odd that Dennis
Mahan has been forgotten except by
military students. He never saw
battlefield and yet his theories Of war
fare. especially his conception of mobil-
ity, pursuit and the destruction of enemy
forces. are sound today. despite the COM
plexity of weapons undreamed Of In his
day.
nlustrious West Pointers fl the pages
Of our history. and yet Col. Dupuy, while
never neglecting West Points outstand-
ing generals, has remembered graduates
who had more modest but not less
courageous and resourceful part In VIM
ming our wars.
To those who regard the military mind
as something stuffy and static. Col.
Dupuy's illuminating book Is particularly
recommended. II there is q military
mind. he admits. West Point is its
source. But, far from being stodgy and
set in its ways, the academy has been
at the forefront Of every military in-
novation. Nor has it ever discouraged
Individual thinking among its cadets.
The cadet who lacks initiative and self
reliance is not apt even to graduate.
The more original and brilliant students
are encouraged to develop their par
ticular gifts.
Col. Dupuy. as it happens, is not a
West Pointer. He entered the Army
from the New York National Guard,
commanding battery overseas In World
War /. In World War II he went over
seas to organize and direct the public
relations Of SEIAEF. He retired
from active duty in 1916. after some
80 years Of service. His book will help
commemorate West Points sesquicen-
tennial.

Allied Youth, Inc.


Recently The Star published two ar
ticles discussing psychiatric treatment
of alcoholics. The conclusion seemed
to be that results revealed by the Wash
ington survey were not impressive. In
the very nature Of things the effective
ness of such treatment depends on the
willing and faithful cooperation of the
patient, and it is precisely the deter
mination and power to give this Cooper
alton that is lacking in most cases.
What would happen if any consider
able percentage Of the more than z
million known alcoholics in the United
States should seriously undertake to
avail themselves Of psychiatric treat
ment can only be conjectured. Neither
financial nor professional resources can
hope to offer help to more than small
scattering of many in need. Still, for
what it may do for the few. the program
should be continued. Certainly humane
considerations and economic wisdom de-
mand that the problem be not dismissed.
There has just come to my attention

ready demonstrated its worth, deserves
to be more widely known. It has its ma

method is primarily educational. with
due emphasis on social and recreational
activity. 1t is directed to high school
youth. It's procedure is to put before
these young people sane and scientific
presentation Of the facts concerning al
cotol and to make it possible for them
to band together in rejecting the use Of
liquor. There is no emotional appeal,
they sign no pledge to abstain; they are
simply encouraged to follow their judg-
ment in the light Of the knowledge they
acquire. They are shown that it is not
necessary to drink in order to have a
good time And, what Is most impor-
tant to them, they find that it is not
necessary to do so in order to be socially
accepted. They form their own group
and have the moral support Of that
group in which it is the smart" thing
not to drink.

D.1LIo.oee T1oI~~, Shy Housewife Can Gain Friends
TIOOISHLo IOdu/ BY Making Effort to Be Friendly

|you establish the habit, you'll be
surprised how easy 1t is!
Make up your mind now that
the next time you see one Of your
neighbors you'll talk to her, even
though you must cross the street
to attract attention. The easiest
gambit to use as an opening would
be children. Probably your two
youngsters are not as introspec-
tive as you, and have made friends
among the children Of the neigh
borhood. When you see the moth
erS of these children, make a
friendly observation on how happy
you are that your girls have such
nice playmateS. That you will
get a friendly, warm reaction is
certain.
So hurdle number one has been
jumped. When you have met and
talked to three or four women,
ask them to your house for tea
some afternoon-although they
probably will invite you first when
they see that you are responsive.
OF course, it is the duty Of old
residents to call upon newcomers
but, since these old-time customs
are not always upheld. don't re-
main aloof waiting for the others
to make overtures. Don't be afraid
to make some yourself. Have the
ladies for tea, inquire what ac-
tivitieS are current in town with
which you can become associated
and from there on the path is
clear.
The principal point for you is
to overcome the initial shyness,
speak to people even though you
must be the one to open the con-
verSation. and don't be afraid. No
one will bite you, or criticize you,
or penalize you for indicating a
desire to make friends. But you
really cannot expect others to be

By Muriel Nissen

DEAR MISS NISSEN: My hus-
band. tWo children and I recently
moved to. a strange city. Our
neighbors are very nice people
who live quite close to us. How
ever, they seem SO unfriendly and
I want so much to have friends
I have always been shy and self
conscious. but in this new environ
ment I hoped to find people who
would understand me. Sometimes
when I come face to face with
my neighbors, get SO tongue
tied that I pretend not to see
them. Later, of course, feel
sorry for being so foolish. How
can I show folks that I want
to be friendly, and I want them
to like me? VIRGINIA L.
ANSWER: BY following a few
simple rules, which may be hard
at first, I can promise that you
will have firm friends. and be well
liked by all around you.
You already have the first and
chief requisite for making friends
you like people and you want
them to like you. Your present
conduct, of course, is the surest
way to achieve the opposite reac-
ton. BY ignoring people, and
pretending you don't even see
them when they are quite well
aware that they are recognized
will build up an impression that
you are a misanthrope, anxious
to avoid speaking to others, and
intent on keeping entirely to your
self.
You must overcome this tend
|ency to withdraw within yourself,
no matter how difficult it is. The
first few times you must make
conversation with comparative
strangers will be hard, but once

J blue wool suit are indications of
how important this house feels
color will be for the coming sea-
son. Our favorite Ben Reig dress
was in the after-six category and
was navy silk taffeta princess
line dress with a dramatic Off
the-shoulder neckline, long slim
sleeves. and with appliqued scrolls
being graduated according to the
shape of the dress. This same
scroll applique was used to en-
Iphasize the bodice of a heavy
white silk faille formal dress with
spreading skirt and shimmering
with bugle bead embroidery.
DIOR'S American collection has
a great many international titles
attached to the costumes. Paris
lis black wool belted coat with
a full skirt and a beaver collar
according to the program. Rio De
Janeiro, a black velvet and green
and purple striped organza hustle
evening dress. Athens is repre-
ISented in black crepe and velvet
slim evening gown with a velvet
stole. Fitting in and out of this
international lineup are several
fashion trends that will find al
home" in many American cities.
Such a one is the monks" collar
that is a draped diversified rolled
collar. Though many jackets for
the coming season appear longer
in length. here they are a bit
shorter and may be double
breasted. tuxedo, or with single
closings. Skirts are slim and
straight.
We like the coats BRIGANCE|
of FRANK GALLANT has done.
Collars are beautifully worked out
with much forward motion to
them, and whether portrait. yoke
frame, crescent fold or a clown
collar. they are new looking. One
topper with a cartwheel shoulder
line plus an Eiffel Tower button
ing on a suit jacket show orig
inality. Smooth woods come
through this season even though
nubby. textured looking fabrics
seem to be the leaders.
PHILIP MANGONE likes the
slim, straight coat that wraps and
looks so elegant he adds an
enormous Alaska seal collar to a |
cutaway box jacket of a gray
flannel suit Brilliant silk
Innings continue on the fashion hit
parade and many sleeves here
are full blown above high narrow
cuffs. The fitted coat is his pet,
too.
You don't expect pastel shades
in the winter but HANNAH TROY
has a number of them in many
of her costumes Coat dresses
register at this house and
other Troy fashion notes included
hand-painted lace chiffon
tweed brocade dresses E.
and delightful bodice treatment
resembling a sunburst Tweed
is also sprayed with net for a
casual dress-up touch and SO
are collars and pockets on her
dresses wool jersey gets
nice play here, too.
ORIGINALS double-breasted
coat closing with tiny little pearl
buttons is a sure winner so
Is their idea that coats should
always be cut to accommodate a
suit underneath A wonderful
blue shade that depends on locale
for you to call it Mediterranean
or Bermuda blue is right in keep
ing with their contemporary feel
ing of fashion in designing coats
that remain classic throughout the
seasons.

Cool Cooking
For Holiday
Week End
By Violet Faulkner

For most of us the Fourth of
July holiday will be a long one.
and that means it will be a social
one, especially for the young
sters. They'll be in and out of the
house at odd hours, and it's a
safe bet, they'll always be looking
for something to eat. If you have
the makings for cool drinks han
dy, sandwich filings mixed, and
cookies in the cookie jar, they
can fix lunch or supper for them
selves and their friends.
To eliminate dishwashing,
which always seems to be dis
tasteful job to the young, let them
use paper cups, plates and nap
kinS. Then there will be no argu-
ment as to which set of young
sters left dirty dishes in the sink.
The social side of the week end
won't be confined solely to the
younger generation I'm sure.
There will probably be many a
porch party among the grown-up
members of the family, too.
Neighbors dropping in to chat or
friends from out of town doing a
bit of sightseeing in the Nations
capital. If you're smart you'll have
a nice nodded salad hidden away
in the refrigerator. Pretty con-
venient if you decide on the spur
of the moment to ask the callers
to stay on for a cold supper. No
need either to send friend hus-
band scurrying to the nearest
delicatessen for cold cuts and
such.
To help with your holiday plan
ming here are recipes for a cool
drink to accompany q sandwich
meal for the children; a salad for
the grown-ups, and cookies for
everybody.
GINGER FRUITADE.
2 lemons, juice.
4 oranges, juice.
A-cup powdered sugar.
4 12-ounce bottles pale dry ginger
ale.
Combine fruit juices and sugar,
blending until sugar is dissolved.
Place ice cubes in 8 glasses, divide
fruit juices and fill glasses with
ginger ale. If fruit juices and gin
ger ale are ice cold you can omit
the ice cubes.
