If he feels like shouting until the rafters ring, he shouts, though the agonized family en- treats him to be quiet. If he wants something he takes it although his weaker brother or sister protests in tears. If he is hungry he eats what and where he will. Manners he none.

This child must learn by experience what is expected of him. He must learn that he shares life with the whole world of people and that only a tiny fraction of space and of personal liberty is his. ‘When he grabs he is to be removed from the scene of his depredations. Even though there is company at the table, away he goes. He has to learn that grabbing is not permitted and he may just as well learn that hard truth when the company is present than de- lay it until later when other company is present.

He followed this up by saying it was the meaning behind the words that was important and the spirit of intention. That is, the truth |lay more in the mind than in the | | words, and in the kindly or unkindly | way in which they came from the | heart. | | It is well for families to realize this. | So many heated arguments arise from | the mere words that are spoken, and | the spirit behind the words is not ap- | preciated.

The bonds of love are wrought and hold faster | than is sometimes appreciated today. | Back of words the spirit of love must be clung to, and if it is there is not any | haste to credit or harbor any Hard | feelings when words may sound hard | or ungracious, | Prequently an impatience is voiced | when words are usual and ordinary. | This impatience may have nothing | whatever to do with what is being said, | nor spring from any annoyance with | the person addressed. Very often some | inanimate object is the cause, as, for | example, when one hits his foot | against a projecting rocker just as the | person starts to answer or ask a ques- | tion or make some comment on what | has been a subject of conversation. If | the person addressed is ready to get | annoyed, here is an opportunity, Man§ ‘a quarrel has had no more justification for beginning than an im- patient tone of voice falling on ears quick to take offense. It would be well for the speaker to say “lixcuse me” or | “I'm sorry” when an’inenimate object or some passing thought of annoyance that had nothing to do with a present conversation was the reaton for an im- patient or annoyed tone of voice or ex- | pletive that could be taken as & per- sonal affront.

BY FLORENCE LA GANKE. Nancy was looking for a wedding gift for a girl who was marrying quite a bit of money as well as a most dis- tinguished gentleman. Nancy knew that the girl would do much enter- She knew also that the bride would doubtless be deluged with the usual salad forks, luncheon sets, bridge outfits and such like. She found a rather new and inter- esting dish for fresh fruit service. It so happened that the girl was fond of serving fresh fruits end simple fruit compotes for dessert. ‘When Nancy saw a crystal dish with flaring sides encircling a crystal cylin- der she bought it at once. The cracked ice went into the outer part of the container and the fruit itself was kept well chilled and pleasantly cool in the inner cylinder. Nancy could ree a melange of fresh honey dew, water- melon and ‘eantaloupe in this dish. She wanted to try it with a compote of fresh apricots and fresh plums, too. She decided she would have to buy one for herself. While she was selecting her gift she ran into Martha, who also was lcok- for something for the soon-to-be- ride. Martha's choice was pewter. She selected a modern pewter coffee t, cream pitcher and sugar bowl. The ines were pleasing, as is quite generally true of all pewter utensils. ‘The ornamentation was of the sim- plest—another talking point for pewter. The handle was of ebony and set off the dull sheen of the pewter in most attractive fashion. Really, the set looked much more expensive than it really was. “You know, Nancy, I think every- body is going to give the bride things for “her dining room, because we all know she will have to do so much en- tertaining and will adore doing it, too.” “I know it, Martha, Something tells me I should have selected a book or a rug.

MILADY BEAUTIFUL BY LOIS Brunette's Color Scheme. | “I am a brupette; what colors should | I wear?” is an oft-repeated beauty qll‘llestlon asked by my readers. And as | there are so many different types of | brunettes it is difficult to answer until | one-knows whether the questioner be- | longs to the olive, medium, fair-skinned | orid class, not to mention the in-| between shades that cannot be so easily | classified. ‘The girl or woman of the florid type has high color in her face, so that| rouge is superfluous. Her hair may be dark or medium brown, and her eyes blue, hazel or brown. She may wear deep cream, black, rich~brown, deep | orange, yellow, turquoise blue, silver | gray, dark blue, peacock blue, taupe, eggshell, pale rose and bluish lavender. As her complexion is florid, she must avoid certain shades of red, although she may wear coral, soft old rose, crimson. She often finds clear red be- coming when used as trimming on dark clothes, The florid brunette will find that most shades of green are becom- ing. Her ruddy skin makes it possible to wear the darker greens as weil almond and reseda. Greens combin: with warm tans or golden browns are flattering. It is usually thought that brunettes can always wear red to advantage. This| is hardly true, but there is one type of | brunette that shows her beauty best | in bright colors such as red. This is | the olive brunette with dark brown or | black hair, dark eyes and an olive com- | lexion with a tinge of warm color in the cheeks. She may wear solid red or use red as trimming on black or navy. Deep cream or ivory white is becoming, and all shades of ecru or beige. Brilllant yellow, apricot, terra cotta, rust, brick, dull pinks, dark warm shades of red, mahogany and fawn are among the colors that the brunette will find lt&erk\?, For daytime wear she will ook lovely in brownish red or dark rust. Terra cotta, fawn and apricot are good shades for evening. Jade.and soft medium greens are suitable. The fair-skinned brunette has a wide range of colors from which to choose. She may wear black, trimmed with cream; white or shell pink, and if she chooses, dark blue that will also be most becoming trimmed with & brighter color. Pure yellow, orange, mustard, amber, pure bright blues, turquoise and sapphire blue, Copenhagen and powder blues are among the colors that she may_choose.

The color of brunette’s eyes will determine largely what colors she ought to select. If she has brown eyes she will find tans, browns and greens especially flattering. If her eyes are blue or gray her best color is some shade of blue, such as| Copenhagen or Wedgewood. Gray is permissible if the skin is not sallow. Among the pinks she should choose those with a yellowish tinge, like peach and salmon. Navy blue is a shade that | any one can wear and it is always smart. Trimmed with red, tan, almond green or soft blue, this perennial fa- vorite may have & place in every brunette’s wardrobe. White is popular this Summer, as usual, but the brunette whose skin is tanned or of a naturally dark shade should give her preference to creamy of pastel-tinted whites. And here is| nettes: If your skin is inclined to be| rough or coarse in texture choose rough- woven fabrics, like shantung, silk or wool tweeds and printed crepes, rather than smooth, solid colors like linen, flannel or satin.

Today in Washington History BY DONALD A. CRAIG. August 15, 1861—An order direct- ing the release of Ex-mayor James G. Berret of Washington from confinement at Fort Lafayette, N. Y., has gone for- ward from the State Department, it was learned today. The order is conditional upon Mr. Berret taking the oath of allegiance to the United States “against any and all enemies whatsoever,” and upon his for- mal resignation of the office of mayor, from which he was forcibly removed re- cently by the military authorities, after he had declined to take the oath of al- legiance. “The order for Mayor Berret's release from confinement in Fort Lafayette i says The Evening Star to-| day, “shows that while the authorities realize the necessity of taking due care | that disloyalty finds no resting place in the municipal government of the Fed- eral metropolis, threatened as it is by the rebels on the other side of the Po- tomac, they nevertheless entertain no wish to oppress any one personally. “While there are many whom they cannot safely trust in positions wherein their action might possibly prove dan- gerous to the cause of the Union as in- volved in the current war, it is evident | that they are disposed to deal with them | as loyal citizens, <o long as they refrain from acts that amount to giving prac- tical aid and comfort to the rebels in arms.” As has been evident from many ar- ticles heretofore printed in the local press, Mayor Berret was always sym- pathetic with the Southern cause and did not hesitate to exprass his opinions. He was arrested quickly and quietly, earlier this Summer. M. Berret is expected to comply with the conditions and soon return to this city. Home in Good Taste BY SARA HILAND.

One. of, “is_brother officers told the writss @ien he heard of MacArthur's appointment that he had served side by side with him for many years, and whether in time of peace or in time of war, I had rather have him for my commanding officer than any other man now in the Army.” On May 21, 1932, Gen. MacArthur will become the senior officer in the Army. Only two men younger than he have ever held the post of chief of staf. They were Gens. Leonard Wood and J. Franklin Bell. Out at Fort Myer, across the Potomac, a house is set aside for the chief of staff of the Army. Whether Gen. MacArthur will desire to make his home there re- mains to be seen. In the past the chief of staff has usually made this spacious and com- Afortable red brick house his home. It is not particularly attractive. It is sug- gestive of the mid-Victorian period of architecture. Gen. Pershing is the only man to head the Army in recent years who has not occupled this house. B Green Tomato Relish.
