EDUCATION. . THOMAS i:i'S()N, whose ability to set iarf on the first page of Jie newspapers has of late been thoroughly lernonstrated, announces that tin modern college graduate has no educnMon at all and that then? Is no place In his organization for the Ignorant. The trouble with Mr. Ellison Is that he has confused education and knowledge. They are entirely different thing. You can educate a horse or n dog, but nobody has yet succeeded In giving them knowledge. Mr. Ford, who Is a warm friend of Mr. Edison, has very' little education, as he proved when questioned under oath on matters literary and historical, find yet no one would deny that he has knowledge. Mr. Edison based his judgment of the college graduate of today on the answers submitted in response to a questionnaire which lie prepared ns a test for young men eeklng employment with him. Those same young men, even If they wen. only average, college men, could have off-hand prepared a questionnarie In answering which Mr. Edison would lave made a miserable failure. It would be no trick at all for any well-Informed man to write ten questions to which Mr. Edison could not furnish ZA) per cent technically correct answers. If you do not believe it, or if Mr. Edison does not believe it, try to write down without consultation of any books or seeking Information from any outside source the answers to these: . Who was Filpay? What and where is the medulla oblongata? What point on the earth has neither latitude nor longitude? Of what nationality was Columbus? Which is the oldest of modem religions? How many teeth has a dog? How much does a cubic foot of air weigh? Were is the island of Fhilae? I low many nations has the earth? What three noted men were contemporaries of Voltaire? Of course as I wrote down these questions I naturally .chose queries to which I knew the answers and yet I am not, even, as the author of the queries, certain as to the accurate answers to two of them. UltlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllPi: I THE GIRL ON THE JOB How to SucceedHow to Get E Ahead How to Make Good E I By JESSIE ROBERTS 1 ,?iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiinii7 Tili: HOTEL WORKER. THE hotel worker gets her board and usually her lodging, as well as her salary. The salaries run from $"i( to $1"i0 a month. Hotel positions are interesting and Important. A girl must have intelligence, a good presence, good manners, and a level head. She has responsibilities, and she ought to he a judge of human nature. The room clerk must have a good memory, so that even with ii large clientele she will remember the different guests who are making her hotel their home, and she should be able to size up applicants for rooms without 'hesitation. The desk clerk comes into direct contact with the guests. She is stationed at the desk in the main lobby, and must be ready to answer all sorts of questions regarding not only the hotel, but the city. She must be smart In appearance, have tact, courtesy and unfailing good humor. The floor clerk accepts packages, answers phone calls, pays for C. O. I. parcels. She often does stenography for guests. She receives, sorts and delivers the mail for her tloor. And she. too, answers questions. Then there are t ho restaurant positions, the cafe cashier, the ft od checker, the waitress. All these positions are good ones. Moreover, there are the summer hotels, where a girl gets room, hoard and salary, varying according to the type of hotel. Many college women help themselves through college In this way. For the ambitious girl without definite training hotel work Is to he recommended ns an excellent way to earn iui independent living. iCoryrtght.) O THE, CHEERFUL ChTO I w5Jt to sea ike Ketrt oF liFe.

III To be able to answer all of those ten questions correctly, offhand, would indicate education, but It would not prove knowledge. The mind of the college graduate ,when be haves his alma mater is in much the same condition as the palate of a man who has tasted in rapid succession several varieties of spices. lie is unable to make prompt and accurate ue of what he really possesse:.' To the spice taster all the spices temporarily taste alike. .To the graduate his information Is a conglomerate mass out of which he, with great difficulty, ticks the fact which he requires. Time will restore the accuracy to the palate. Time and application of the knowl edge will enable the college man to arrange his mental storehouse .so that he knows where things are and how to use them. Mr. Edison does the college graduates an Injustice when he says they are uneducated. They are in most cases educated, but they are untrained. Education you can get in part from books. Training comes only with experience and practice, in applying education. St. Nernard, who was one of the greatest of ecclesiastics, writing to a friend, said: "Trust to one who has had exiK'rience. Stones and trees will teach yoq what you will never learn from the masters." And Shakespeare, who had perhaps read what St. Bernard wrote, put these lines In "As You Like It:" "And this our life, exempt from public haunt, Finds tongues In trees, books in the running brooks, Sermons in stones, and good in everything."

Her voice was like the whispering of trees, Her laughter like the tinkle of a rill ; Her cheeks blushed roses, roses such as these Upen the hill. She was a river In a thirsty land, A changeless star In midnight skies to shine Her touch, to walk with Nature hand-in-hand And she was mine, was mine. So leave me in the wood a little while; Here where the grass is greenest let me lie. The sun shall bring me once again her smile, The wind her sigh. Here only do we seem no more apart, In verdant ways beneath the skies of blue; The stirring earth will seem a beating heart. The heart, the heart I knew. Once only she could bring the forest near, In those old days amid the panting crowd. Once only she could make the stars appear IJeyond the cloud.

White Lingerie Headgear Likely to Return to Favor. Seme of the Smart Summery Millinery Is Formed From Burnished Lisere Straw. With the prominence being iven by irren t French milliners to the broad brimmed hat of antique leghorn with ribbon streamers or luce trimming, we need, not be surprised, observes a fashion authority, to see the white lingerie hat worn 10 years ajro with the simple muslin dress return to popularity. Some of the summery hats are formed from burnished lisere straw, with no trimming otber than a narrow velvet ribbon placed about the crown and tied in a tiny bow at the back with long Mowing ends. Such models may have small hunches of fruit or tlowers tucked under the brim, as it seems that there Is no tendency to depart from a bit ot drooping trimming at the side. Lace is used more sparingly than last summer and In Its logical place for the real dress hat. Varnished rib bons and varnished straws still are Binart with ginghams or simple frocks. wide-brimmed shiny straw hat, with a broad glazed ribbon, crossing the crown and ending In loops or fringed ends at either side, Is decidedly at tractive. The true spirit of summer appears in some of the simple straw hats by our own American makers. Very lovely to wear with a sheer white frock is one of bright green horse hair with a drooping brim, cut wide at the sides and short In the back and front. The onlv trimming is a wreath of green leaves going across the front and extending beyond the brim on either shfo. With the movement for four sea sons in this country' the large, summery hat will doubtless grow in favor.

A GREEN SUMMER IS INDICATED

Urilliant Hues Popular on Atlantic City Boardwalk for All Kinds of Apparel. Ureen in all its varied hues, in hats, frocks, sport outfits, sweaters, scarfs and even stockings, was the IJoardwalk color recently when thousands revelled in gorgeous sunshine. Many forecast a "green summer." Observant strollers were overwhelmed with the conviction that nine out of every ten small women have a predilection for lurg hats with little trimming or small hats with a superabundance of decoration. Flappers are going in for brimIos headgear, with an enthusiasm akin to "the fancy nf their big sisters for the adaptable sailor in all its variations. So far a :!pp-ar.m-cs go. It would have been in gross exaggeration to say that some of the secretly plain skirts contained the minimum two yards of fabric. Coinnnm-M'iiH' heels never were so popular with so many of those who formerly regarded French heels as trie only kind possible for P.oanlwalk wear. The "military" heel for the time being has displaced Us rival of foreign derivation and there I less complaint about "IJoardwalk feet." Hundreds of larue women, large in ttature, by adopting the waisthss fiock with the linked cirdle have qn.tlltied for places in the "trim" dlvis. on of their sex.

HATS

STYLISH BLACK SATIN WRAP 3 J K Tis,: , yy.; U'' ' . ' ... .V I i 1 VOf the modish black satin, but distinctive in cut, is this redingote from Paris. The wide sleeves are as con. venient as they are graceful and charming, for they prevent the satin from being tco warm for a summer wrap. bearing on the efforts of our own milliners to create a demand for real summer hats at this time. It would sVem unnecessary that any great amount of effort should be expended to develop four seasons In clothes. They should exist logically. Iiut here in America they have not. There have practically been only two seasons In millinery. KEEP SEWING BASKET HANDY Convenience Should Be Available in Bedroom, Sewing and Sitting Rooms as Time-Saver. , Keep a completely stocked sowing basket in bedroom, sewing room and sitting room. In this way n.any quick stitches can be taken, which would not have been taken if everything had to be 'hunted up. In the sitting room basket, keep a piece of pickup work ami when an unexpected caller comes, this can be worked on, when one would not feel at liberty to take time to hunt up the things. Also keep a sewing bag ready with a piece of work and necessary threads, etc., so that when you go out to call or visit there is always something ready to take with you. This Is a little extra expense to begin with, as it requires four pairs of scissors and four thimbles, but it amply repays In the end in the extra amount of work done. Complexion Brushes. Kvery precaution should he taken in the care of complexion brushes. The skin of the face i extremely sensitive and, if any dirt Is allowed to remain in the brush, it will lodge in the tiny pores of the skin. I'demishes result which often take many months to heal. After thoroughly washing brushes they should be placed in the sunshine. After a thorough drying, be sure and place th'Mn where the dut cannot reach them. A n?w decree from Dame Fashion's court, superseding the shoe-color mandate fur hoU'ry, authoritatively explains why a great many silver-haired women are wearing stockings and slippers to blend with their coiffure. Meanwhile, the fancy for chains, earrings and other decorations threatens to develop into a craze for the enrichment of the jewelry trade. Crepe de Chine. Naturally crepe de chine often serves for nverblcuses. The mills must have been running overtime to supply the world with this fabric. There Is rio single garment a woman wears that cannot be made of one of the weaves of crepe. There are many, as you know all alike, except for certain roughness of the surface and thickness of the weave. All are borrowed from the Chinese, except the kind that cornes from Morocco. There are new-"blouses of thin crepe de chine which are chosen In neutral colors in order that they may be embroidered gayly and brightly. These have square sleeves, collarless round neck and loops of crepe de chine that fall over the hips to the hern of tinskirt in a cascade effect. Skirt Trimming. If there is any sort of trimming or a dress it Is to be found on the skirt. The most attractive afternoon gown. are often made In somber colors. ver smartly cut and absolutely plain. O course it takes an expert to make u simple frock look elegant, as cutting Ih real art.
