Flat Haircuts
BY HEDDA HOYT United Press Fashion Editor If vou worry over trifles And detest the nice that stUtos If keeping uo with fashions is a Dore Take a hitch in vour suspenders \ Wear a haircut minus fenders Ana with concentrated effort you still score 1 . . . As long as the skirt is short and the hair is flat to the head, you’re in style. Necklines may vary, boleros may be unheard of; tiers, flounces and flares may flop where they will, but if the skirt is short you’ll pass muster without being shot at providing of course, that the hair is worn as flat as an ear kt the sides and back. Many a smart little Miss puts over the modern style with a two and a half yard remnant of cloth. The average yardage worn by the flapper, including undergarments, is less than six yards. Formerly it required that amount to make a dress. Style today depends upon shortage of material and shortage of skirt-length. When manufacturers of women’s clothing found that they could skimp on material and still command the same prices for clothes they started something which the cloth manufacturers are now striving to stop. Women are in league with the clothing manufacturers since they have found that the "fewer the better” holds good where yardage is concerned. The shorter and scantier dresses are, the more comfortable they are and the easier and cheaper they are to make. The fact that modern dresses could be copied so cheaply by home seamstresses caused dress manufacturers to put out a line of modern-priced dresses. Thus we have the popular sls frocks for all occasions. When the times comes for longer and wider skirts the price of dresses will probably soar upwards. Even trimmnlg details have J>een lacking greatly during the short skirt wave. This fact also, has made thi copying of dresses easier. It is that winter frocks, though short as to hems, will again resort to embroidery, beadwork and other trimming details. But that’s a future worry! While the summer is here all that’s required is to be shortskirted and flat coiffured.

ONLY WOMAN WATCHMAKER IN AMERICA WINS PRIZES
**# J||p:^ \ <-t*'"' s£*s&& )'. v >
Miss Martha S. Wittnauer, at her medieval, carved desk, with some of her watches that won blue ribbons at international shows in Paris, Berne, Vienna, Philadelphia and elsewhere. Artist’s sketches, below, show her supervising work at her shop and on her Connecticut farm.
BY JULIA BLANSHARD NEW YORK, Aug. 24.—Some women waste time. Some save it. But Martha S. Wittnauer makes it! She is America’s only woman watchmaker—Swiss by birth but emphatically American by choice—a dynamic, efficient woman. 1 As head of the A. Wittnauer Company, makers and importers of prizewinning Longine and A; arciz watches, she is the only womai ever elected to the Horological Society of America. Chamberlin timed his flight over the Atlantic by one of her watches. Lindbergh wears one. Nurmi’s speed was recorded by one of her split-second stop pieces. Most of America’s prize fights count their K. O.’s by her tickers. King Albert of Belgium, and the late Rudolph Valentino’s tricky timepieces that record the hour, minute, second, day, month, year and phase of the moon came from her factory. Rudy’s octagonal shaped platinum timer, incrusted with diamonds and rubies, was the trickier of the two, for it also chimed “the hour and had a tlnkly alarm. Galli-Curci’s jeweled watch, with a single sparkling diamond for its crystal, is from the Wittnauer factories, too. Miss Wittnauer has proudly watched her watches go to the North Pole, the South, under the ocean and into the air. They’re even in the navy now, accepted for their excellent submarine service in the war. Not Her Choice. “Os course I love the business. It is my whole life,” Miss Wittnauer says. Then she adds frankly: ‘‘No woman, however, would go into such a complicated business from choice. I inherited the business from my three brothers, (who had built their lives and good names into it.. “When my last brother died just before the war, I found myself with a million-doll?,r 60-year-old enterprise bearing my family name. I was staggered by the responsibility. But what was I to do?” What she did was characteristic of her sense of responsibility. She knew a lot about watches and the business just from hearing her brothers talk. But she had had no training having been engrossed in home-making for those three brothers, first in Neuchatel Switzerland, and then here. So she pitched in and learned every phase of watchmaking. Her department heads all say she knows as much about their work as they do! "Making watches for a living gives you no time for yourself,” Miss Wittnauer confesses. No wonder, for she manages the case works and repair factory she founded here, oversees all the import business of the Chicago and Montreal offices, and personally inspects the Swiss factories twice each year. But she does manage to salvage enough leisure to collect antiques and raise prize-winning American apples on her old-American farm in Connecticut. < You see the old-world side of Miss Wittnauer, visiting her factory office high in a building in New York’s busy wholesale district. Lacy iron grille work from an Italian palace fashions the entrance to her richly panelled and frescoed sanctum and gives an air of seclusion strangely incongruous to the humming salesrooms for pants, vests and felt hats on the floors below. Employs Ten Nationalities. Here you note Miss Wittnauer’s old-world manner of maintaining the traditions of the craftsman’s guilds among her 100 employes of ten nationalities. Her watch makers have the joy of making a whole watch, not just a standardized part of many. And they have a sense of security above their jobs, many of them having been there thirty-five years. The only employe she has fired was a habitual post-prohibi-tion drinker! She lets old Swiss Jan go home each summer to tend goats in his Alpine home. He comes back when the snow flies. She understands when Russian Nick is worried about his wife or Italian Joe’s boy is sick. She carried the same, personal touch into her factory that used to make her household so homelike For she really believes that success, in the last analysis, is only built on human happiness. “Running a watch business has many things in common with homemaking, though,” Miss Wittnauer insists. “The same principles underly both—harmony. Given good craftsmen, and encourage them to co-operate and the outconje is sure to be harmonious. “I never imagined, when starting, how engrossing and fascinating this business would be. But that was because I did not see its personal side. Now the business means not only watches to me, but so many men and women to think about.
And in the past year I’ve been working toward a co-operative arrangement so they can share in the factory. For we’re aii one big family and before I die I want us all to share it together.”
Holding Child Confidence Mother’s Greatest Duty
BY MARTHA LEE Mothers are self-sacrificing. They know no bounds to all that they will do for their children. Pitiful it is then, that giving of themselves so valiantly, fulfilling in so many ways the infinite duties of parenthood, they so often fail to see how wide they have left open the door of their children’s confidences to strangers, and have closed it to themselves. Better that a mother should neglect something of her child’s physical comfort; that she should fail to provide her with the latest in sport clothes, high priced music lessons, or even a decided degree of culture than that she should leave neglected the comforting realization to her daughter that she can always confide in mother:

That no matter what thoughts puzzle and confuse her young mind, no matter what suggestions come to tempt her, she L, free to tell-moth, er about them and to ask her advice. The woman who overlooks this need of her daughter is not a 100 per cent mother, though all the world acclaim her virtues. Cannot "elf Mother Dear Martha Lee: I am going: with a young mah who loves me dearly and I do him. I must tell you. though, that I have made a great mistake with him and my conscience Is hurting me terribly. I don't want to go on living like this and I don't know what to do. We can not marry it seems, because my brother and I are the ones that keep our home going as my father Is dead, and this young man will not live with my folks. My mother does not know of .his. O Miss Lee. why Is it that the girls of today don't conflde In their mothers I I don't and my reason Is that my mother does not respect my secrets. If I could Just go to my mother's bedroom and tell her all this. I would be so happy and so relieved, but I cannot. Please advise me.. DOROTHY ANN. As some of your letter which I do not print indicates that this situation has continued for some time, I think you ffaould let nothing stand in the way if your marriage. To do so. would be to risk much unhappiness in the future. It may seem to you that you can not marry because of the home conditions, but I believe those would adjust themselves. Anyway, you and the young man should either instantly part or conform to the laws of our land wl:.ch legalize the situation that is now causing you distress. "Broken Hearted Girl” says she ”love;i a boy and he said he loved me.” He recently went out of town to work. Before going, he promised to write. He has written to a girl friend, bit not to this girl he promised. "Do you think he loves me? I will always love him,” she writes. I don’t think he does, dear girl, judging from his actions. However, there is a possibility that he may have written you and the letter gone astray, “Truly Disgusted” is 19, has had "several beaus and dates with a number of young men. Among them, I have found only two who were gentlemen.” Recently she met a young man who seemed ideal, but he also has fallen in line with those who did not “act right.” “Why will the’boys talk about girls when they themselves act that way?" she asks. That, of course, is ore of the mysteries—why do so many men try to have their girl friends overstep the conventions And yet indicate that they like them better if they don’t. All I can say for your comfort, is to do as your own conscience dictates, being sure that the "right man” whom you sometime will meet will appreciate this. “Brown Wyes” has been married less than ,*o ’months. She complains thp.t her husband works on his car ail his spare time. “What shall I do, get a job and leave him?” she asks. Well, I should wait about two years rather than two months t<s decide upon this, Mrs. Brown Eyes. However, if your husband has no more definite faults than what you name, I should think you might bear with him. Married Saturday The marriage of Miss Isabel Margaret Stokes, 42 W. Twenty-Fourth St., and Joseph Tutor Hoss, 520 N. Meridian St., which took place Saturday evening at the home of the bride’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. Robert A. Stokes in Newport, has been announced.

Real Wives Denied Help of Publicity BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON In reviewing the murder case of Gray and Snyder, of Dreher and Lebo< us, one sees at first naught save horror and sin from which the soul shrinks. Yet even in these depths of darkness, these sloughs of depravity, there shines a ray of beamy and light,. For did not Mrs. Judd Gray and Mrs. Tnomas E. Dreher sit each day beside their erring husbands during those harrowing days when both men were condemned to death? It is a beautiful truth, and one that cannot be refuted, that for every woman who sinks into iniquity there are two who walk ever in the paths of virtue. For every wife who is unfaithful there are ten whose love is as steadfast as the stars. For every wicked soul housed in a feminine body there abide among us many more who will cleave to their loved ones through disasters until death. Wicked in Limelight It may be natural for us to judge womanhood by these hectic examples, these Borgias of the sex, who get into the public prints because of their dire deeds, but it is a mistake to do so. Because in this world it is the wicked who always get most of the advertising. Crimes that are shouted to the nation, that are emblazoned in the headlines, are but the exceptions that prove the rule. Far more frequent are the gentle deeds that women do, and far more numerous are the tears that fall in secret from woman’s eyes, tears that are caused because they love men too dearly. The weeping wife of Dr. Dreher of Franklin will follow him to the scaffold Will her fidelity not overshadow the crime committed by Mrs. Leboeuf? Will her love blot out for our sex the deed of the sinful woman? Good Little Noted And few printed words will be inscribed for her compared t those that advertise Mrs. Leboeuf. Her heart will ache without newspaper notoriety, and though her life has been blasted by this deed, few tears will fall because of that. For she is merely the faithful wife, the woman who gets little praise and no advertising and yet who is to be found all over the world easing the pain, smoothing the path, carrying the burdens of those she loves, as faithful in the shadows as in the sunshine of life. When you think about women think sometimes of her, this unsung heroine to whom no monuments are ever erected, but without whom life would be a dreary affair. Browns Give Bridal Dinner for Daughter

Family Menus
BY SISTER MARY BREAKFAST —Fresh pears, cereal cooked with figs, cream, crisp toast, mamalade, milk, coffee. LUNCHEON—Baked sweet corn, broiled tomatoes, rye muffins, cottage cheese, currant jam, milk, tea. DINNER—Hors d’oeuvres of eggs and beets, broiled veal sweetbreads, creamed peas, fried summer squash, peaches in ambush, milk, coffee. These are ideal hot weather menus. They are seasonable, well balanced and nourishing. No salad is planned for the evening meal, but an “appetizer” is used instead. This little trick of varying menus is well worth keeping in mind There are innumerable combination j to be used that whet the appetite and at the same time add to the value of the dinner. Baked Sweet Corn One cup corn cut from cob, 1 teaspoon sugar, Va teaspoon salt, 1-8 teaspoon pepper, 2 tablespoons flour, 1 cup milk, 4 eggs. To cut corn from cob score down through the center of each row of kernels. Cut off the tops of the kernels with a sharp knife. With the blunt edge of the knife, scrape out the milk and heart. Mix and sift flour, salt, sugar and pepper over corn. Stir with a fork until thoroughly blended. Add milk and yolks of eggs well beaten. Beat whites of eggs until stiff and dry. Fold into first mixtures and turn into a wellbuttered baking dish. Bake thirty minutes in a moderate oven. Serve at once. When firm to the touch the dish is done.

What Price
One Riotous Day in Park BY ALLENE SUMNER Henry Carlton of Chicago, business man, and perhaps tired, too, told his wife he was going to Pittsburgh on business. When he came home his wife found a reli of films in his pocket. She had them developed. They depicted husband Henry with a lady fair having a great time at an amusement park. The pictures are Exhibit A in Mrs. Carlton’s divorce suit.* Many morals lurk here. One might interpret the anecdote as the folly of being so egotistic that pictures must be taken, also of the wifely folly of investigating husbandly coat pockets, and, perhaps, too, the folly of the impetuosity of wives who think that one day at an amusement park must undo years of fidelity. Baby Cab Garages Garages for baby cabs are the latest allurement offered by a London landlord whp has just erected nine-ty-five new flats with se.cnty baby carriage or “pram” sheds. Which means that fiat-dwellers of England are permitted to have offspring even if American flat-dwel-iers are not. Merry Widows Once upon a time the widow, the merry, merry widow, was considered a formidable rival by the unmarried girl, so far as men were concerned. But Aggers, good, old-fashioned, reliable figgers, prove that the widow is losing her power and that many more men are choosing inexperienced maidens for brides. Perhaps it is not the waning of the widQw's charms so much as the more formidable appearance of tha widow’s offspring now that butter costs CO cent a pound and shoes sld a pair, to say nothing of the movies and pop and ice cream cones which the widow's offspring would expect as a matter of course. No Children Tax Having paddled the bachelor and demanded a good big tax from him. Hungary is now about to enforce a tax upon all childless married couples, the proceeds to be used for education, social welfare and other needs of the state. There’s funny illogical reasoning here. If the government investigates, it would probably learn that the very reason for its need of orphanages, charities, old people’s homes, feeble-minded institutes, et al and more al, is family over-pro-duction. The very people who tax a state to the hilt because of ignorance and si upidity are not penalised. The people who spare the state are the ones who pay for the others. He Did A certain reverend lost his wife. The good women of his congregation exhorted him to take unto himself another. After a month of single bliss he returned from a journey into parts afar with a wife. He was booed and hooted out of the hamlet, with all the good women saying things about “such desecration to the sacred memory of his good wife,” and “shame on you.” The reverend is still wondering what it's all about. Any woman could tell him that he made a mistake of picking someone other than one of those who exhorted him to do even so. “Ma” Vacations Farm women’s vacation camps j which are now being organized in many States, and where overworked farm wives don’t even have to wring out their own bathing suits, are one of the best things started in this country for a long time. What the cooperative nursery is to the city woman who simply must get away from her offspring, so is the farm women’s vacation camp to the woman who even in this day of modern convenience, may be carrying the water and filling coal oil lamps.
