The officers who have attended the ten days' course will teach their companies and by summer they will all be proficient In the new ideas taught by Miss Wolton, That Lady Astor says of politic fans: 'All parties have a sub-con- scious prejudice against women. It began with Adam, and it has come down through the ages to our own time. I do not believe that a lot of the men know that they have got that sub-conscinusness." That the Save-the-Children fund, generously supported by the people of the British empire all over the world, is responding to this call for help to the utmost of its ability. Its chief commissioner in Greece, Dr. W, A.

An addl- tional 8,000 adults are being fed from the same kitchens on behalf of an associated society, the Imperial War Relief fund, which does not re- strict its appeal to children.

MOTHERS | And Their Children Ome Mother Says: Now that it is considered fashion- able to dress two children of the same family alike, I keep always on hand two rolls of initialed tape with which I mark every garment. This not only avoids disputes, as the girls are so nearly the same size, but gives them a feeling of respon- sibility for their own individual clothes, since there is no chance ot wearing one another's things. MAH JONGG DRESS APPEARS IN PARIS The mah jongg dress made its in- itlal bow recently to the Parisian public at the Auteuil race track om the occasion of the 27th annual run- ning of the Grand Prix de Printemps, which coincided with the first real breath of spring. It was the first outdoor display of the 'styles and créations ofi-the 1924 season, which, heretofore, ow- ing to the chill weather and tardy spring, were visible only behind the dressmakers' shop windows. But beautiful sunshine has ushered in the season at least two weeks earlier than usual, The mah jongg dress consists of three distinct frocks, entirely inde- pendent one from another, but worn all at the same time and presenting a delightful "fused color effect." Over the inner dress of yellow crepe is placed a similar dress of grey and over that one of black. ' Other colors blend with less success; some seen to-day presented a rather rainbow effect. The three dresses can be worn singly, sepa or jointly and sey- erally. Foreigners who formed a large percentage of the 50,000 in atjend- ance--the largest in the history of French racing this early in the year! --predicted that the dress worn three ! fold would be very popular upon ap- | proaching seaports, in view of the customs regulations.
