Man Not So Efficient as i Housekeeper BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON One of the favorite contentions tt men Is that 4 hey could manage household matters far more quietly and efficiently than women. Yet they never tidy their own offices. They can't keep their desks clean. They have to have stenographers to file their letters properly. How many of them make their oWff beds or dust their rooms? The fact is, without women, men ajjeedily would go back to living in <lirt and disorder. There are exceptions, it's true. Certain males have a sense of tidiness and know how to dispatch domestic duties with neatness, but they are few and lar between. In the first place, the average normal man doesn't recognize dirt when he sees it. The dust could lie live inches under his bed and he'd never notice it. He has no natural flair for details of that sort, and though he may enjoy cooking, you will find that his instinct is to leave the soiled dishes stacked to the ceiling. His methods often are more comfortable than women’s because we sometimes fail to see the sunshine 1 by trying to find the motes in it. But when a man puts out all this loud talk about how efficient and marvelous he would be at women's work, he's merely indulging his natural desire io show off. What's more, he doesn't know exactly what he is talking about. The average man, set down in a flve-room house with a couple of babies to look after, would be in the insane asylum inside of six jnonths. Look, if you please, at theic greatest constitutional failure their inability to find things that •re right before their eyes. What would they do in a house where half the tasks are made up or keeping in place innumerable articles that are necessary to the Well-being of the family?

PARIS. Aug. 1. NAVY blue still tops the colors for the tailleur, navy blue with its touches of white, usually polka dots, occasionally pin stripes, more often a mixture woven right in the material. And then, of course, it is inevitable that there would be further touches of white in the trimming of the autumn tailleur. Speaking of trimming reminds me of blouses. And this seasons blouses certainly are delightful! But a blouse just doesn't deserve to be called one unless it is intricate with handwork—not fussy, you understand, but simply well done and given the personality of a garment rather than merely a necessary accessory for a garment, with fine pleats, incrustations, tucks and hemstitching And, of course, it has become a tuck-in, as all skirts are more or less normal waisted. The jacket of your tailleur? Yes, to be sure, it is either short or quite three-quarter length, in which case it has become an ensemble rather than a tailleur. I even have seen some that are so short and tight that they just meet the normal waistline of the skirt. Others flare over the hips, but surprisingly few of them blouse. u a a IS’POSE you will get tired of having me tell you how colorravishing Mary Nowitsky's things are and how difficult to interpret in mere pen and ink? But that is a fact, nevertheless, and if you could just imagine the lovely tea gown Don’t Endure Slipping FALSE TEETH Do your false teeth drop or slip when you talk, eat, laugh or sneeze?

The Acid Test The acid test of the importance of anything in life is.to consider what life would be like without it. Applying this test to the railroads gives an impressive idea of their important place in our national life. Without the railroads, travel and all that it means in the w r ay of family, social and business contacts would be sadly handicapped. Only railway service offers travelers dependability in all seasons and under all weather conditions combined with speed, safety, comfort and moderate prices. Without the railroads, the nation’s commerce would be strangled. The railroads handle speedily and economically anything in any quantity going anywhere at any time. This all inclusiveness of service is unshared by any other freight carrier or combination of carriers. Substitute services might be utilized in limited measure, but always at a sacrifice of some of the qualities that characterize railway service. For the most part, commerce would revert to the primitive conditions of a century ago or be put to staggering difficulties, inconvenience and expense if it had to do without the railroads. Other means of transportation may have some advantages over the railroads in individual respects, but none can rival them in all-around usefulness. Prudence suggests that an asset so important to the country should be safeguarded. This calls for liberal patronage of the railroads and a sympathetic public interest in their welfare. Constructive criticism and suggestions are invited. v ' Li. A. DOWNS, President, Illinois Central System. CHICAGO, August, 1,1930. —Dependable for 79 Years —

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

lace hem and its dull blue jacket covered with soft purple flowers in that raised velvet effect. m m THE Petite Adorables of today are as smartly tuned out as to color, completeness of detail and accessories as their chic mamas—and as simply. More handwork, perhaps, appears on their clothes than on mamas, because there isn’t so much space to cover. Fine hand hemstitching, tiny tucks and wee pleats, smocking, touches of delicate embroidery and that new type of “fuzzy” painting that resembles raised velvet, give dresses for the little girl their elegance and charm. Sonny, too, comes in for his share of pleats and tucks and incrustations, if not actual embroidery! tt tt A modernistic flower design, some novel suggestions for how and where to use it, and interspersed through this same leaflet after-summer beauty hits that will save you millyuns of trips to the beauty parlors if you just follow them for a couple of weeks! All in all, I think you’d better send a 2-cent stamp to the Dare Department of The Times for that leaflet, don’t you? a a tt Au Revoir! (Copyright, 1930. by The Associated Newspapers.) .
