Humanity is for the most part generous at heart When the Red Cross made It known that $10,000,000 was needed at once, the response was quick and sympathetic.

Immediately after the ceremony they joined other sufferers in a refugee camp. Parrot Speaks nis Mind. Flood victims were the favored guests bf their more fortunate brethren. Travelers disembarking from first class accommodations on trains arriving at the Indianapolis terminal from the flood area were forced to carry their own bags. Red caps fought to carry the baggage of refugees in the coaches, even though they knew there was hardly a chance for a tip. Refugees had precious little baggage to carry, however. The type of hand packages being carried by the fleeing hordes was indicated by the piles of belongings found between the rows of some 6,000 cots in the Louisville armory, where refugees had spent the night. Mixed in with s pile of sodden blankets were a broken doll, a kitchen pan and a parrot ii) a badly bent cage speaking slightly warped language. Refugees were wearily searching for their own belongings while trucks waited outside to carry them to places of greater safety. You cant think of 'everything in an emergency like flood.

But wealth is no longer measured by money, its measured by boots. Thoss that have them love to turn them so that the noticeable for yellow linings will be blocks. These who havent ay th dam things art too bot and baavy anyway. Some persona become equal to th occasion in unusual way. Take, for O. instance, Ida Wsbb and Virgil Then it was discovered that they had neglected to provide diapers for babies. A rush call to merchants produced 600. There were other changes In the order of commerce. One building had been a laundry, with many trucks operating from it day by day. Now it is a repair shop for outboard motors, with the tiny craft entering the building through the back door. There is humor here, too, for even a flood is not without its ironies and its paradoxes. For iflstance, one of the chief desires of msst refugees from the high water is a bath. On the other hand, there is the case of the sharecropper who was being cared for In a Poplar Bluff, Mo., camp, where the doctor In charge had ordered all 800 refugees to take a bath. Say, the sharecropper seprotested, "this things gettin rious. Fat Lady Gets a Lift. In the Jail at Parkersburg, W. Va.. 63 prisoners didnt mind the flood very much. They were eating fancy "vlttles they couldnt even call by name, supplied by the citys foremost hotel. In Cincinnati, rescue crews heard that a woman had been marooned, and set out to get her. They had to chop away part of her house to take. her out; she weighed 400 pounds. In Louisville a rescue party took a woman from a flooded house and rowed her three blocks to safety. Then she wanted to be rowed back. She had left two dollars in the home, she said. The boatmen were gentle, but firm. Not even for two bucks, they said. Sights to be seen from the rescue boats were not all dismal. There was the truck mired In a ditch betide a flooded highway near Cairo.

The new silks look new distinctively new! Those that unmistakably bear a stamp follow along unique lines of thought They are more than 'mere dress media In that they have gone pictorial, illustrative, interpretative. They portray ideas, they entertain, they s amuse. Some of the better silk prints even go, by name as an artist would entitle a picture which makes them all the more interesting. There is, for example, a clever looking new silk print called "film modes. The French love of American films inspired Schiaparelli to design this amusing print with the names of famous stars printed on colorful scrolls simulating cinema film. The attractive daytime frock centered in the illustration herewith is made of this silk print, the color scheme being peacock blue and coral on black.

With the flood of holiday parties, women seem always to wear little hats, oftenest of felt, with double veils floating over their faces. And that is the preferred position for the filmy things for lunch time, too. Cocktail parties give a divided allegiance to veils, some of them over the face, but many draped over the back of the hat, making a frame for the face. Particularly amusing is one of Theresa Peter's new creations. The tiny pointed skull cap d for it is actually that is of gold thread. Two tiny feather nightingales ornament it at either side of the front, and hold the veil which is also embroidered in nightingales and sweeps back over the entire hat, hanging almost to the shoulders.
