“Don’t Drive Your Mother to Use an Ax” MRS. MAUDE WILSON Who Turned Carrie Nation and Wrecked the Interior ef • “Speakeasy” Because, Aie Said, Liquor Had Been Sold to Her 18-Year-Old Daughter and Her Husband *Jit Illustration Shows the “Speakeasy” After Mrs. Wilson Got Through » Wielding the Ax. By ULDINE UTLEY SOMEONE sent me a picture of a “•oft drink parlor” in Kansas City which looked as though an earth <|uake had shivered every hit of glass fal the place. It might as well have bees an earthquake as Mrs. Maude Wflaon and her ax, for the job was thoroughly done. “I warned the proprietor of this glace not to sell liquor to my 18-year •Id daughter,” Mrs. Wilson told the police when they arrived, “I will not have my young daughter destroyed by Bquor-eellers.” Hera is a mother who braved arrest •ad punishment and notoriety to save her daughter from the dangers that proceed from intemperance and from the curse of intemperance itself. How many mothers in big cities to day would sacrifice themselves in this way to save a child from the tempta lions which lie in wait for children under the influence of intoxicants? And how many girls of eighteen years need a shock such as this to teach them where they stand and the extent of a mother’s love and anxiety for them?

SCHWAB, head of the gigantic Bethlehem Steel Corporation, has frequently been tailed America’s greatest optimist. An unparallelled leader of men, and one Of the country’s greatest industrial producers, Mr. Schwab’s homely mod esty and cheerfulness have appealed very strongly to the younger genera tion. Perhaps no man before the Ameri ean public today has been so widely sought as a speaker, a lecturer or as the subject of newspaper interviews. When Mr. Schwab speaks he says some thing, and says it itn a way to thrill hia hearers and inspire them to greater effort. For instance, he said this: “Successful industrial management iu the future is going to depend more and more upon management of men rather than upon the origination of machines and other problems which are ordinerily considered in the field of practical engineering.” He has always been his own strict est task-master, and one of his pet theories is that men respond to humane treatment in the shop or factory, giv What Do You Know— About Legal Terms? 1.

A few years ago there died in New York a famous American woman who was known the world over as Mrs. Frank Leslie, the first American woman publisher. She was noted for her beauty and her brilliant mind, and she lived some years beyond eighty. Mrs. Leslie said that she never in dulged in liquors because she did not want to age any sooner than she must, and also because If she took stimulants before old age came upon her she would lose the austaining value they possess for the aged She never wore spectacles and her eyes were lustrous and beautiful and her health excellent beyond eighty years, her mentality brilliant as in her prime. She had never—although dally tempted by social custom—spoiled her beauty or impaired her mind through drinking stimulants Her sole dissi pation in old age- -and nobody dreamed how old she was- -consisted of a tiny glass of bitters before dinner. I am citing the life, rule of this woman because it was a real difficulty for her at virtually daily functione to decline the flow of wines which formed part of every dinner party. Her life shows you. girls, that from a purely worldy viewpoint you are throwing away youth, beauty, health, your pretty -C.M. Schwab tng back in service more than they re ceive through increased pay, bonuses, etc, “The men who has done his best has dona everything,** says Mr. Schwab. “The man who has dona lass than bis best haa dona nothing.'* America to Mr. Schwab is a land of boundless opportunity. “Nothing is so plentiful in America as opportunity,’’ ho says. "Thera era more jobe for forceful men than there are forceful men to fill them. When ever the question comes up of buying new work# wo never consider whether “ we cen make the works pay. That is a foregone conclusion if we can get the right men to manage them.'* “Charlie” Schwab belongs to that wide circle of Americana which dpes not count success in terms only of money. The real leaders of industry and the real successes in life, he be lieves, are not always the men who have made a lot of money or great fortunes. Talking to a group of students who were about to begin their life work, Mr. Schwab said: “My idea of the successful lifo it the man who has successfully accom plished the objects for which ho set out, to do something that is worthy of a real American man. Money is often a matter of chance or good for tune and is not a> mark of a successful life. “I would not pose as a successful man if money was to bo the measure. But when I look about ma and see the multitude of friends that I nave after years of business associations with men; when I see the great lines of blazing furnaces that have coma into being because of my interest and ac tivity in life, and when I see a work that I sat out to do successfully ac complished and meeting the approval of my fellow men, then a real thrill cornea into my heart and I feel that I have -done something worth while.” Unimpeachable integrity is one of the first essentials of a successful life, in the opinion of the head of the Beth lehem Steel Company. No man can ever do anything of any great value in life and have the confidence arid ap proval of his fellow men or be success ful in his undertakings with other busi ness men if he doesn’t have the repu tation of being a man of honor and integrity. Here is another important point in the Schwab philosophy: Any man who goes into anything in life and does it better than tha average will eucceed; if he does it worse than tha averaga his Ufa will not he a suc cessful one. No business can exist in which success cannot ba woo on that basis. Another thing is loyalty. Be loyal to tha paople with whom you associate at tha start, says Schwab. Make your employer feel truthfully that you aie sincere with him; that you ara going to promote his interests; that you are going to stand for tha things which ha represents; that you are proud of be ing e member of his staff, and there is nothing that will reap a richer reward. Loyalty above ell. Finally, say? Mr Schwab, be inter ested in your work and look for it* pleasant aspect*. No map can be suc cessful unless he finds his work pleas ant, x ,, V -.

Just from the standpoint of youth ful loveliness alone, when you see your reflection in the mirror on the morning after a drinking party what sort of face do you behold? Is it rosy and kissable or pale and dull? Do the eyes that look at you beam brightly or ire they sunken and apathetic?

HOW TO DRESS WELL Suitcase Hat of Fait Which Can Easily Ba Packed Because of the P* tssed Crease Through the Center. By ANNE U. STILLMAN HATS are tedious affairs. I should say that the hat problem is the most difficult one of a woman’s sntlre wardrobe. American hats are not nearly as good as the Paris hats They have a tendency to get frozen, if you know what 1 mean. A hat here starts and never ends. You see it in every shade at every price. It becomes standardized Even a smart, well-made hat which you particularly prize you will meet on the heads of all your friends in some version or another. It is most discouraging at times. After a trip from Paris it is the lack of hat-sense that is the most noticeable fashion fault of the American woman A hat in America is still a head cover tng--that is. in a general sense, of course. Over here few women have the slightest regard for the profile or back of the head It is fust the front that gets the attention. Sometimes one would think American women were paper dolls without an ear or a neck line. The French go frantic over the pro file—and the back of a hat And they are right too. for no matter how beau tiful the face—or how becoming the hat from the front view- -there isn’t a face, good or bad, that will help make a beautiful picture from the back. A hat can do much to soften the lines of the face—or to shorten the length of the nose, if one’s nose is long If not it will act just the opposite, some times emphasizing the “pug- i x ness" of the squatty nose, or broaden the face. Besides the shape or cut of the hat. color is important when buying a hat. So few women understand this There is my sister Color doesn’t seem to make much dif ference to her if it is the color that everyone is wearing She lets it go at that. Women do 6ueh cruel things to themselves in the way of color. Take, for inatance. the family of tana, mere are green tans- and pink tana—and orchid tana — indeed, tana to match every akin. And yet one acea bad •elertione on all aidea. u is ine tame wiui practically every color. Some shades blend and others do not. It is a thing to watch carefully, for the hat is so close to the eyes It can deaden the eyes or make them appear more beautiful and lustrous. It can brlnR out the lovely pink tones of vour skin—or. on the other hand, make it appear muddy and sal low. To go hack to silhouette— your coat or drees should harmonize in line with your hat, or you are tost as far as real smartness is concerned. They must “go together.” If you are wesir ing a coat with a large fur col lar, for instance, you can only wear the small hat of the tight fitting, skull type, perhaps enlivened by ft I m a 11, jeweled pin.
