What Suggestion
Will Do
When children are little, sux- gcation works wonders.
Suggestion works wonders with everybody. It is the psychological secret of all propaganda, for in- stance. The man on the street is almost entirely guided by the "feeling in the air." He will, an- awer this by his own actions in- atantly where he would rebel' if given a direct command,
I think this ilustrates Bome. thing that can be used in the home very nicely.
Little children under six arc very likely to set themselves up instantly against direct commands, no matter how reasonable they nre. In fact, they go still further. If we reverse the command and agree with them, quite often they will jump over and face us from the other side of the fence.. "Billy, go out and get that paper.".. "I won't."

Suggestion works like this, "Mrs. Smith's pavement is so nice and clean, Isn't it?"
Billy looks at Mrs. Smith's nice! clear sidewalk. Perhape he'll see the point himself. No?
Then, "Oh, dear, a great big piece of paper has blown off our burn pile. It spolls our nice pave- ment. I wish our pavement looker as nice as Mrs. Smith's."
"Wait'll get it, Mummy."| And out he runs.
A roundabout way of geiting him to do your will? Not at all-- little diplomacy is as honest as the skies and it is constructive, too. Because we don't want to many open clashes with Billy, if possible. Neither is it cowardly. Indirect ruling is the answer to a number_of_things in life and it has never been considered legitimate yet,

WINTER WEAR
High necklines and touches of gold are the important notes of the formal afternoon mode this winter.
Sally Eilers wears a formal jumper dress of garnet panne velvet over a high-necked blouse of metallic brocaded lace with dolman sleeves. A pert little bow tie of velvet fastens the high collar. Buttons, which run all the way from the neckline to the cuffs of the long sleeves, are covered with the metallic lace,
The dress is cut perfectly straight and-is-belted at the nor- mal waistline. It's a dainty little ensemble for that important tea or cocktail party.
