of the original Hickson artists of New
Y'ork, which will be given today and

country was a part of the great war,

designers have come to the front and
are showing their creative ability.
In commenting on the new, uniqu
modes, John P. Plagemann, manager,
said:
'The bustle silhouette is being in
troduced into the smartest new models,
Of course, there will be some objec

"Due to the desire which women

In the Winter suits and talllieurs
showing the bustle back, the flat.
straight front and slender hips have
been retained. The figure presents a
trim, elegant line, when viewed from
the front, and in the back slim, straight
ilhouette draperies. The bustle gowns
are becoming to the different types of
women, and this is another reason for
their popularity. Even the severe tai
lored rrocKs nave a tendency to an

but the effect is produced by a skillful
manipulation of the materials. These
draped garments do not require any
more material than those of the recent
past in fact, many of the designs call
for a yard or so less material. The
fullness is being taken from the sides
and arranged in the back.
In the working out of this design
the first efforts of Hickson were de
voted to reducing or eliminating any
feature which might be termed ugly or
disfiguring. The next efforts were di
rected to combining the characteristics
of Hickson fashions with the inspira
tions received from the early '903.

o
NCE there was a wise school teacher
who, when she wished to find out
what was the matter with a difficult
pupil, did not look at his face, but felt
of his hands. Thus she measured his
temperature and temperament.- Thus
by his responsiveness she discovered
his mood.
A philosopher as old as Anaxagoras
decided that the superiority of man
over the rest of the animal wotld is
owing to his hands.
Kiw Acts .of rChlldhood.
The history of your baby's develop
ment is largely the story of the vay
he uses his hands. The gestures of
little baby, are close to his body, chief
ly about his mouth. They begin by
being wholly spasmodic and undirected.
and even after he' commences to know
what he is trying to do it always takes
both hands at once to accomplish it.
He also has to supplement his fingers
by his toes, which are quite as mobile.
Even a 3-year-old has hardlv discov
ered the convenience of his thumbs and
does most of his grasping with the
four fingers.
The drama summarizes itself like
this: Act I. Lying in bed and fumbling.
Act II. Sitting and stretching. Act III.
Creeping and grasping. Act IV. Walk-
ng, running and playing. I suppose
telephoning and flying are the great

Imbecile Hands.
The more mobile the extremities the
more capable the creature. This ex
plains the shrewdness of the opossum
and the . raccoon, the wisdom of the
parrot and the elephant. So with hu
man beings.
If you look at the hands of an im
becile the fingers impress you as un
finished, lou touch them and you are
shocked. The skin is clammy, the fin
gers, are stiff and unyielding. They
are like the hands of a corpse. The
movements, which are clumsy, are
from the wrist. When the hands are
not in use, Uiey sprawl.
Simple Palmistry.
The principal tests of intelligence are
by means of the hands. The subjects
of study are asked to strike at dots,
to string beads, to thread needles. The
"stereognostic" test, which is most dif
ficult, consists of identifying obje-ts
that are covered from sight, solely by
feeling of them with the hands.
You may easily become somewhat of
an amateur palmist. It is not neces
sary to study the "life lines." The un
controlled mind gestures with monkey
dabs. The nervous child's hand bends.
The feeble hand droops. The power
ful nature makes large gestures. The
skillful hand tends, even when relaxed.
to hold itself as if loosely grasping
a tool.
More Than a Fad.
Hand education has rightly claimed
much modern attention. It is the only
training that has yet been found effec
tive with subnormal children. We have
never yet measured the boundaries of
its influence upon those who are nor
