CHICAGO. Aug. 10, (AP) Fancy
frills may make Jack a dull boy.
The fond parent who dresses her
small son, or her little daughter with
too many frills, overly conspicuous
colors or 111-fittlng garments, may be
retarding the child's mental progress,
In the opinion of Dr. Josephine E.
Young, who makes a study of mental
diseases In children.
She expressed her belief yesterday
In addressing a health meeting held
under auspices of the Chicago Wom
an's club.
"The child who Is embarrassed be
cause of any peculiarity In his appearance,-or
whose clothes are un
comfortable, has his attention dis
tracted from constructive mental ef
fort and la thereby unable to make
progress," she said.

headlights, steering gear, brakes, and
all safety appliances, will be marked

Fred Brown, In charge of the south
ern Oregon district of the Oregon
State Motor association. The tests

Brown said.
"All autos are to be tested free
of charge," he stated, "and Is being
carried out as a safety measure for
school children.' Tests are to be
conducted here In about three weeks.
he said.
A school ward patrol Is to be
established as a part of the safety

representative said, and a Juvenile
police force will be organized. As
Mr. Brown's plan Is outlined, the
youths selected for the force will
be furnished belts and badges. They

Mr. Brown said, from the kinder
garten through the ninth grade. Mr.

changes in road conditions, are
clearly marked on the maps. The
southern Oregon charts will prob
ably be lsued the latter part of this
season.

Small Close Fitting Hat
Fashionable for Autumn
IRENE DUNNE
I believe the early morning dew
and the British fogs are wonderful
stimulants and fresheners for the
skin.
Since California does not have
these morning dews, I have com
pounded a skin freshener very simi
lar in effect to nature's stimulant,
and with a spray like a perfume
atomizer I apply this to my neck and
face.
The effect la startling. A tonic,
vital freshness is awakened In the
skin, and a healthy glow and fine
ness of texture results from the dally
use of such a preparation.

NEW YORK. Aug. 10. (AP) Small,
close-fitting hate with an interna
tional flare there's an English boater.
Spanish sailor, Florentine trlcorne
and chapes Inspired by the Alabama
mammy's bandana are what the wo
men should wear this fall, the Retail
Milliners' Association of America sug
gests. The close fitting cloche, the tiny
turban, the small hat with varied
brims, and the sailor, all worn far
down over the right eye, were shown
at the association's annual fall show
last night. Bows led as trimmings
and a great many feather effects
were shown, placed to the fore of the
hat.
The skull-shaped and Nret crowns
were favored with many folded, shir
red, trucked and stitched effects fea
tured. Brims were popular but they
were narrow and often turned up
close around the crown in a variety
of new ways.
Felt, new crepe-llke wools, velour
cloth and some dull silks were shown
for daytime. Velvet led for evening
with shlrrrd. transparent velvet and
chenille favored. Soleil felt, satin
and a number of feathered turbans
were for formal wear.
Black was the predominating color
with brown and red, shading from
deep wine tone to a brilliant orange
red, next in favor.
Veils are expected to find extreme
favor with the new fall models. They
are both flippant and - theatrical.
Some of those shown were dotted
with large silver spangles or white
chenille. One was draped with a trl
corne straight down the nose to the
shoulder.

state policemen were detailed to
watch every move of the suspects.
Indignant denials were registered

confessions were made, when con
fronted with direct evidence, and
the equipment used.
The last of the suspects was ar

Hard (o Trail.
According to the stockmen, who
sustained losses, and the authori
ties, the "gasoline cowboys" were
difficult to trail, as they knew every
road and trail and were well ac
quainted with the territory over
which they prowled.
The arrests follow three years of
complaint, of county stockmen rela
tive to the loss of stock. The Butte
Falls and Dead Indian districts
ranges were raided the past two
years. The state sent In a special
investigator a year ago. He was
able to find the horns and hides
of the butchered cows, but no clues
to the Identity of the rustlera.
Because of the ready sale most
of the stock to which the quartet
allegedly confess theft, was young.
Under the Oregon law, conviction
of the crime charged provides for
state prison terms of from one to
ten years.
