‘ K Pouring Forth onPaper the Things They Would Never Dream o Saying ~

Governor Pinchot has undertaken to reiorm ofliclal letter-writing. ' l-ie holds thatfvaluable time and money are wasted in the use‘ oi unnecessary words and trite phrases. andthat it is utterly superfluous to tell the corres- pondent to whom you are writing. that the "contents

are noted oi his communication," and that the ex-

pression‘ “your letter to hand" has grown whiskers on

it with age‘.

The general public will wish the Governor god- speed in‘ his eiiort to get a shorter and better oiiicial letter, but it isn't the oflicial letter alone that needs reiorm. ‘ .

The private letter cries out a.loud ior- the atten-

v something. For there ls something curious that hap- pens to people, and especially to women, when they sit

that makes them write things that they would never even dream oi saying. 'i'h’ere‘was an old- legend about there being a demon in theink well, and I. ior one, believe ilrmly in it. .

Perhaps the letter that most needs reiorming is the iamlly letter. Bar- _ ticularlythe one that mother writes. Let's begin by wringing it dry,‘ and squeezing out a iew barrels oi tears. Why mothers should write letters that are simply dripping with brine to their absentchildren no one knows, but they are so given to it that, you‘ remember; during the war the, Govern- ment ‘had to warn them against it and tell them that the arrival oi the mail illled with mothers’ letters simply shattered the morale o lithe troops.

\ This is the more strange because in real liie mother isn't at all a mel- ancholy“ individual who spends her time in complaining oi her lot and talk- ing about her troubles. 0n the contrary, she is generally a husky, cheer- iul, eiiicient body who belongs to clubs and drives a car and plays a mean game oi bridge and generally gets a lot oi iun out oi liie. and she is iar enough irorn expecting to an an early grave.

But when she writes to Mary and John and Emmelina she becomes a periect Niobe. She begins by telling them how lonely she is without them, and that she and iather are growing old and won't be here long, and it is a cruel iate that separates them irom their children in their old age. Then» she passes sadly along to the subject oi health and tells how they are break- ing down, and hints darkly at various iatal diseases that she is airaid they may be developing.

Then she takes up the neighborhood gossip and retails every death and bankruptcy and automobile accident and unpleasant incident that has hap- pened in the community, and ii anybody has gotten married or had a baby or inherited a fortune or has a bit oi good luck, she nevermentlons it. ~

Andthe worst part oi these letters is that the written word carries so much more weight than the spoken word. Ii you were iace to iace with mother you would make allowance ior her mood, also you would know the facts oi the ‘case. andthat things weren't; so bad as she represented them, and that she just had a spell oi the blues and would be over. it in an hour. But what shewrites seems iinal and iatal, and it weighs down the receiver under tons oi depression and makes her children ieel that mother is a poor, broken-hearted creature whom they have basely deserted.

But girls have a positive mania ior writing incriminating letters to vir- tually any man whose address theyhave. A bottle oi ink apparently has the same eiiect on them as a bottle oi booze. Once let them dip pen into it and they go on a sentimental Jag in which they tell even comparative strangers‘ how they love them, how they will die ii theyare parted irom them. how they long ior their kisses. and how they are theirs untildeath, and so on and so iorth.

PARIS, June 2.—(U. PJ-Draped necklines are flattering. Short, pulled sleeves are youthiul. Diagonal lines are slendering. A symmetriodraping is beguiling. Ankle-length skirts ior dancing are practical and interesting. Qdd buttons and iastenings are ele. var-and so on and on. .

But it ls terse little sentences like that. that really mean m; most. Long rig-a-ma-roles about iashion all have to simmer and boil down to certain crystallized sentences. When you. yourseli, want to know something about iashions, something definite like- How long are skirts? What colors are best? What will make my hips look slender and my shoulders a bit iulieril-You would pyg- ier that the person whose opinion you have sought would simply reply-Three lengths ior evening: ankle, instep and floor. Sport; mid-cali. Morning and aiternoon general wear: mid-calf and slightly below. Smart colors: browns, black. white. pastels, greens and blues. Striped material run diagonally over your hips, tuck; so arranged, and darker colors will slenderlze them. The same striped material and tucks running parallel across your shoulders in a blouse, ior instance, will till them out remarkably. Also, a dark skirt and a white or light ‘blouse will do the same thing. Ii you have a great deal oi time you might not object to a longer answer to your questions. but this gives you a quick answer, does it not?

Personally, I tried this method myseli and iound that. invar- iably. it was the grand couturiers that gave me the short concise and definite answers to every question I put beiore them. ‘ineli- replies were ready and quick and I iound that when I turned to go away my mind was iuli oi the most vivid pictures. Just word pic- tures that were all outline, and iorm. and color-brilliant things that. a lot oi unnecessary words would have utterly confused and ruined. As it was, they stood out in reliei as ii they had been carved with a sharp knlie.

Boleros balance hips. Plaids give breadth. houettes add to height. ‘three-quarter Jackets tailorize.

and ruflles ieminlze-and so on and on and on!
