Burgess) You'll ind that fear will still persist | In finding things that don’t exist. —Old Mother Nature. Chatterer the Red Squirrel would have been enjoying himself but for one thing. That one thing was the uncertainty in regard to Shadow the Weasel. Chatterer had become thoroughly rested. All the time he had sat away out on a branch| overhanging the pond.of Paddy the Beaver. Looking down, he looked | right into the water. He had not been able to jump to that tree. He| had had to climb it from the ground He knew that any one who might | be following him would have to| climb it from the ground. He knew | that if Shadow the Weasel were still | following him he would be able to | see Shadow before Shadow could get nearer than the foot of that tree. | Had it not been for this he wouldn't have sat there s0 long for rest. Sammy Jay came along just about the time-that Chatterer was begin- | ning to feel thoroughly rested. “Hello, Chatterer!” exclaimed Sam- my Jay. Aren’t you lost away over here?” Now Sammy Jay and Chatterer the Red Squirrel are not the very best of friends. Usually when they meet they quarrel. They say mean things to one another. But Sammy | Jay had spoken pleasantly this time. | You see, Chatterer was so far from his usual places that it took Sammy by surprise, and somehow Sammy | had a friendly feeling. It was the | same way with Chatterer. “No Sammy, I'm not lost,” said Chatterer, “but I've had a terrible | ¢right. 1 think I'll go home.” i “Who gave you a terrible fright?"” | Sammy asked “Shadow the Weasel” Chatterer. “He was more. T guess he must have given up. But it has made me terribly nervous. One never knows when that fellow may take it into his head to pick up a trail again “Then break trail,” replied | er me once aid | | to sav, Sam- | retorted You fellows w wings don't leave anv trail it you did it wonld to break.

Thess children respond unduly to simple situations, developing hatreds and remarkable affections on small basis. They are easily impression- able, exaggerating small remarks | into serious situations. | For instance, one such child de- | veloped the notion that children could be had by eating great quan- | tities of food and becoming con- stipated.

Frlly Summer Frocks Make Their Last Stand at Society’s Smart Watering Places Mrs. Ira F. Warner, left, ampton Kennel BY BETSY SCHUYLER New York, Aug. 10—On avenue, the reign of flowered chif- fons and floppy hats is drawing to a close—printed velvets and dark ser- ious satins are eager to assume com- mand and have already taken the shop windows and the workrogms. But at Easthampton, Southamp- ton, Saratoga, Newport, and a score | of smart watering places in beu\'eenl Fitth| the flufy frock is the order of the day and millinery plays its original | | role, that of protecting the wearer's | eyes from the too ardent attentions | of the sun. Attending Southampton Kennel Club show, I found a festive crowd, colorful and kaleidoscopic. A gay, laughing crowd that was hilariously enthusiastic about a collection of canines that really were irrestible. Generally Conservative Individually the smart sot is con- | servative, and revolutionary ideas or | rebel manifestations are rare. They| adhere to a general style platform, | and a unity of aim and endeavor. | This is highly commendable because | women not only look well individu- | ally, but as a group. ‘ Conformity of line and silhouette agreed upon, the details are up to the wearer, and it is in originality | in these smaller details that ths modern society woman shines. 1 saw Virginia Thaw in a very interesting printed costume, band- ed and belted with the same share | of blue as the little short finger length coat she wore with it Mrs. James P. Donahue, daugh- ter of the late F. W. Woolworth, wore a . costume of printed geo gette, with a very interesting skirt, that was accordion pleated | in the front, and scalloped irreg- | fularly in rather deep ‘points. The which | T blouse was of plain color, plain- color was repeated in jabot frill of the coat. Her wide| brimmed hat had a wreath of| flowers around the crown, and on her ‘shoulder were some beautiful | orchids. However, Mrs. Donahue wanted no attention for herself — her in-| terest lay in her wire-haired !er-\ rier, “San Sensational,” a really nifty pup that took his homnge quite as a matter of course. Doeskin Gloves Popular Geraldine Shepard’s print frock had an unusual neckline, with & double row of pleating on ei!her‘v side of the V making a diagonal| line across her front. The skirt also was ruftled. With her was Mrs. Ira F. War- ner, in a white silk sport frock over which she wore a fascinating coat of printed linen — or maybe it was silk. Nearly all the women 1 saw were wearing these very short white doeskin gloves, which seem just made for midsummer wear. At the annual Cathedral Horse the Paris, Aug. 10 (#—Yachting at- tire is & primary shummer concern of the designers. Bernard makes a | tull-skirted coat in navy cheviot which resembles a sea captain‘s reefer. A scarf in rose crepe de chlne hcn a striped design in tose | Hanley, Show in Rye, I saw Mre. Walter ot Greenwich, Conn, in a printed frock that set off her slim figure very smartly. It had 2 double flounce of box pleats on the skirt, and the plainest possible treatment of the sleeveg and neck- line. I noticed she wore a triple| strand of pearls, and Mamlcal‘ bracelets on either arm. Blug and White Symphony | Here, too, 1 saw Mrs. Donald! Stralen, wearing a charming out- | fit — a navy blue silk short jacket, with a white silk sport dress, the upper part of which was embroid- ered in navy blue dots. The skirt was very full and had many pleats. Her white sport shoes had trim- mings of navy blue leathers, and there was an attractive blue and white boutonniere on her lapel. With her was Miss Carol Ritten- bert, in a hand embroidered, leeveless sport frock in the new shade of green, with a chapeau to match. Far be it from me to make any prophesies for the winter, and have later to eat my words, but 1 can't help remarking on the prev- alence of the brown evening gOWn. One of the loveliest T have seen was of brown, over brilliant red. It sounds awful, I know, but Chan- tal made it, and she knew what she was about. Brown tulle bouf- fant gowns are lovely.

Gaiety Always Is Beneficial } Older and Younger Gener- tions Should Fraternize There should be imagination, gay- ety and beauty in the relationship between parents and young folks to- |day in order to preserve the hom bonds, in the opinion of Mrs. Rob- ert E. Speer, president of the Na- Mrs. Robert E. Speer association, herself a mother and a grandmother. “The dogmatic attitude of adults | chich said ‘do-this-because-I-say- it-is-good-for-you’ has broken down today and parents must meet their children on an entirely different ground,” she stated “Youth above all dislike our at- titude that our opinions and stan- dards must become theirs’' Mrs Speer continued. “Understanding be-‘ tween the two generations can only | |come when we, as their elders, be- come open-minded and easy and | pleasant to deal with “‘We must learn to f{nvite the willing cooperation of young folks 1f parents have respect son's or daughter's personality and treat them as equals and friends, for nw!r‘ Mrs. Walter Hanley at the Cathe. dral Horse Show many of the conflicts and disputes can be avoided “The parents who ecan enjoy things with their children are the happy ones. Gayety is ignored by 00 many parents. Boys and girls can be mirthful at a moment's no- tice, but how seldom parents can laugh with them “If we could learn to laugh with our children we would find how priceless a possession laughter is for any household.” WINTER DOLMAN A gorgeously luxurious brown transparent velvet evening dolman s lined throughiut with soft Blonde | fur.
