Club Urged to Support Housing Law Mrs Albion Fellow# Bacon of Evansville, author of the Indiana housing law, discussed homes and living standards in a talk Tuesday before the American home department of the Woman's Department Club following its spring luncheon. Mrs. Bacun made a plea that the women fight any poposed change in the law which might come up at the next session of the legislature. She stressed the evils of the too dark room and of overcrowding. "At the last session of the legislature,” she said, ‘‘an effort was made to amend the law by reducing the height of rooms and their areas by omitting windows in bathrooms, introducing artificial ventilation.” Mrs. Bacon stressed the fact that the buildings affected were not single dwellings with light and air on all sides, but multiple dwellings or apartments, particularly tenements. "It is the women and children who suffer from low living standards,” Mrs. Bacon asserted. Mrs. Bacon told of visiting slum districts of all cities of the state and their conditions. She added that “this work has taken the best part of my life, but I do not begrudge &hp gave a report of the President's conference on home building and home ownership, of which she is a member.

EVANS’ mm FOR ALL, PURPOSES
—From Jay Thorpe. New York.
one Is a tricorne . .•. tailored and military-like. And fine wrtth a suit or soldierly coat. Another’s the hat turned up all around. Much like the "gob” hat of sailor boys. With a little ribbon waving from the back . . . and tilted saucily . . . you can look your most impertinent. Or wear it with a tiny nose veil. Then you’re sophisticated. Sailors Up in Back Speaking of sailors . , . the sailor hat is another brimmed type that goes with a tailored ensemble. You can have Reboux’s very flatbrimmed ailor or one with a brim that tilts slightly, as the one in the sketch.
Agnes’ sailor has a narrower brim and it turns up sharply in back, tilting down in front. Up-in-back is a favorite w r ay with other kinds of brims, too. (And don’t forget that the back of your hair must be well arranged when you wear this kind.) Profile Brims Have Air Some turn up sharply. Some are draped up softly. The older woman likes them, But so does the younger person, who wears them at a more exaggerated tilt. And for this younger person, the scoop brim hat is a fine up-in-back type. Profile brims have a special air about them. They turn upon one side and down on the other . . . letting only half the face show. Something in the manner of a profile photograph. Softly rolling brims, that wave up and down along the edge. (You can bend and turn some of them to suit yourself. Narrow brims and wide ones . . . dipping now on one side and now on the other . . . with a crease here and a point there. Easy, certainly, to find a brimmed hat that looks as though it had been made specially for you. (Convrltrht. 1932. bv Amos Parrish) Next: If you prefer unbrimmed hats, read ail about them tomorrow.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
From Arnold Constable and Cos.. New York. SHOULD you live in climes that make you choose a smart printed cape dress for Easter, or a little silk suit, your accessories will be something different again. First, you must have a chic little modified beret, preferably one like this baby milan in two tones of browm, with a pert little bow atop it to accentuate its youthfulness. Then there are trim little French knot-kid slip-ons, in just the right brown or other color to dress up your gay little outfit and give it formality; some beautifully cut "ties,” in anew design with the decorative punch work and stitching. Last, but very important for your morale, a town bag of pin calf in brown tones, black or blue to match your outfit, with a handsome clasp of gleaming onyx and marcasite.

If Child Has Obsession, Favor Rather Than Fight It Openly
BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON NEA Service Writer Dorothy goes to kindergarten. She hates one color—brown—because she had a brown dress once. That brown dress had a history. Like some of our own clothes it had a habit of getting into trouble; the evening dress that always gets the soup spilled over it, or the fur coat that invariably gets the chewing-gum on the seat in the movies. Only, Dorothy's brown dress was associated with deeper tragedies. Once she fell and got blood all over it; another time she was spanked when she had it on; the day she got lost of course it was the brown dress that got lost with her. So she hated the dress and consequently everything brown. But her kindergarten teacher didn’t know this, neither did her mother. And Dorothy being only a little girl 5 years old didn’t think about mentioning it, if she thought at all. Hated One Color Miss Gates was trying to teach the children numbers by using little colored balls on a frame. “Ones” were red, “twos” were blue, “threes” yellow, “fours” green and “fives” were—brown! Five little brown balls were “five,” that was that. Day after day the children were shown what it was all about. Dorothy said to herself: “Five is brown. I don’t like that number.” So when Miss Gates next tried to show the children how to take a pencil and make the names of numbers on a paper by funny curls and circles, Dorothy wouldn’t make the figure 5. She would put down slowly, painfully 1, 2. 3,4, 6,7, 8. 9, 10. Miss Gates didn't notice at first, then she saw the omission one day. “Make your 5, Dorothy. See, this way!” But Dorothy just looked. She took the pencil then and did it all over again. 1. 2,3, 4,6, 7, 8. 9, 10. Miss Gates was puzzled. Hand Slapped A week of urging, explaining, insisting did no good. She sent a note to Dorothy's mother. But the same thing occurred at home. No sir, small Dot wouldn’t

and didn’t make “five!” Her mother struggled. There was something wrong. “Dorothy,” she said, "was obstinate.” Twice she slapped her hand. Oh,—so five was not only brown but it made her get scolded and smacked, too. That old five! She hated is worse than ever. Both teacher and mother ceased their efforts finally. Dorothy was a queer child. They gave it up. Then one bright day, the child w'ent to kindergarten and the city drawing teacher had put the ten numbers on the blackboard in fancy dreses. “5” Dressed Up And there w'as 5 all in pink and blue with roses tacked into it—a perfectly beautiful 5! And that day they had coins to learn the names of. A penny w'as brown, of course, and Miss Gates counted out ones, tw r os, threes, fours and fives with brown pennies. But when she came to five she held up anew, shining nickel. “Five doesn’t like to be brown,” she said brightly. “It’s sort of proud, so it runs off and gets a new\ shining dress like this.” Oh, so a “nickel” was five cents. A nice nickel that she liked so well. Suddenly she decided to make a lot of ss, but nobody ever knew why. This little episode is a deep study in associated ideas that lead to obsessions. A thousand lessons may be learned from it.
