AS WOMAN to
WOMAN
RUTH CAMERON
T J THY is it, I wonder, that the ay-
Yγ crage relative regards it as one
of his — or more lively her—un
avoidable duties to frankly criticise
everything about her closest relatives?
If you show a new g£a>n or hat to a
friend she will pick out all the best points
about it, all the allurements that induced
you io buy it, and Warm the cockles of
Vow heart by commenting upon them.
"Isn't it a wonderful color? ,, she will
sas, "and what cunning buttons! Try it on and let me see how it looks on you.
H-hat a pretty skirl, and so becoming to you. Makes you look &° slender.
i ci, it certainly is a bargain. ,,
Show the same gown to your relative, and, though she may see the good
y points, she certainly gives no sign of having done so. On the contrary, she
kindly points out any disadvantages which she fears may have escaped your
eve- "The waist is a little too small across the back, isnt it? And the sleeves
arc too short. Queer how they almost always make the sleeves too short. It
is a lovely color, isnt it? But so trying. Too bad so few people can wear
Thai lace is cheap, but, then, they always put cheap lace in ready made
things. That's one of the reasons why 1 like to Jiave my things made up. Of
course, you can rip it out and put in something better."
The closer the relationship, the closer is the degree of frankness, of course.
By way, have you ever happened to notice how the word "frank" like c
word "criticise," has been given an unpleasant meaning by usage. "Criticise"
originally meant "to pass judgment on the merits or qualities of." Evidently
the judgment was usually unfavorable, for criticism is now generally used in the
sense o) "pick flaws." The first meaning given for "frank" '« "free in utter
ing one's real opinion." For a' that, the opinion might be the most favorable
m the World. Bui somehow when any one says, "I am going to be frank with
you, b>c don't usually anticipate praise — nor get it cither.
I o return io the original subject-*—the > other day I showed a new gown
to a very close relative, and she delivered a monologue somewhat the above
upon d. One or two things she did praise, but for the most ptrt she picked
i flaws. "IVcll," I sighed to myself, as I laid it away in its tissue paper bed
rteir, '7'm sorry she doesn't like it, for she has good taste."
II hat was my astonishment to hear later from a mutual friend that she,
my critical relative, had been praising my gown to others as one of the loveliest
■ had seen. She had even compared it favorably to a Parisian creation of
•re of her wealthy friends, which she had been praising to me. And yet, from
comments, J had actually thought she didnt like it.
Is unfavorable criticism really a duly we owe our relatives?
Must »c all our pleasant words for our friends?
I wonder?

"GUT BEAUTIFUL"
IDEAS SUGGESTED
Plans for Bettering San
Francisco's Appearance
Are Developed
Foundations for new progress to
ward beautifing and bettering condi
tions in San Francisco wero laid last
nlplit at the City Beautiful convention,
held in the assembly room of the
Phelan building, when officers wore
elected and schemes proposed to im
prove the streets and parks of the city.
Typical among these was a sugges
tion read for making a park of the
steep slope of Elizabeth street above
Hoffman, in which the grade is too
heavy for traffic.
Several civic and women's organiza
tions were among the indorsers of this
plan, asking that the strip of land be
turned over to the park commission to
be laid out according to Its id^as.
Residents of the district already have
signified their willingness to subscribe
to the project.
Charles Francis Adams was elected
president of the convention to succeed
Eustace Cullinan. The other officers
chosen were: Vice president, Mrs.
Emma W. Little; second vice president,
Mrs. Margaret Hill; third vice presi
dent, Angelo Rossi; marshal, Doctor C
S. Maguire; treasurer. Colonel Prank
W. Mars ton; secretary, Joseph P.
Dugan.
These officers will meet next Tues
day afternoon in the Mills building at.
A o'clock to nominate committees which
will carry out the work of the conven
tion during the next year.
Fire Chief Thomas It. Murpliy ap
peared at the dose of the evening to
give a demonstration and explanation
of the working of the fire alarm box
system of San Francisco.
Among the accomplishments of the
year which the City Beautiful conven
tion recites are proposed ordinances for
clean streets, sidewalks and lots pub
lished in pamphlet form, the establish
ment of a tree planting commission,
and the adoption and ratification by
the legislature of a city planning com
mission.
Rev. H. P. Hanson *o Speak —Rev.
FT. p. Hanson will speak on "The
Throng and the Touch" at the 4 o'clock
vesper service tomorrow at the Young

quarters, 1249 O'Farroll street. Miss

EYES OF EUROPE
FIXED ON PANAMA
English Merchant Tells of
Rush of Travel to Zone
of Canal
Henry R. Budd. an Enplish merchant
who arrived here yesterday from Pan
ama on tho liner Kansas City, says the t
eyes of Europe are fixed on the Pan
ama can.il and that the isthmus today
is the geratest tourist attraction in the
world. The European steamship line*
recognized this a long time ago and
are now running passenger lineVs at
special rates to the canal zone.
The steamer on which' Mr. Budd
sailed to Colon was one of seven big
liners to arrive the same day, and from
these ships 2,700 tourists landed. Most
of them made the trip just to see the
canal work in its nearly completed
state and remained for only a few
hours'.
"The kind of travel," said Mr. Budd.
"that is now going on to the isthmus
will come to California when the canal
opens. All the world la interested in
this state, but many tourists dread the
long overland train journey. When
they can come all the way by ship
they will come in droves. This will be
altogether apart from the immigrant
travel, but if California uses Its op
portunities aright many will locate
and make their homes here for at least
part of the year."
PLANS FOR OBSERVING
ST. PATRICK'S BIRTH
An adjourned meeting of the St.
Patrick's day convention of the United
Trish Societies will be held Sunday
afternoon at 2 o'clock in Welcome hall,
1254 Market street.
It has been decided to hold two cele
brations. A ball will be given at the
Auditorium, Page and Fillmore streets,
Saturday evening. March 15, and liter
ary exercises will be held in Knights
of Columbus hall, 150 Golden Gate
avenue Sunday afternoon, March 16.
The United Irish Societies have
agreed upon these dates for their cele
bration to avoid holding it during Holy
week, as Pt. Patrick's day falls within
that period this year.
At the conclusion of business Sun
day a musical and literary program
will be rendered for the entertain
ment of the delegates.

board of education at a special meet
ing yesterday tunatWit if adopted, the

struction fund might increase t»
$140,000.
Director Jonee flrst offered a resolu
tion asking: for the approval of thes*
plans as submitted by the consulting
architects of the board of public work*,
and superintendent Roncorierl then
proposed an amendment limiting the
proposal so that approval could be
given only if the work could be done
■within the means at command. He
thought that the people should be
asked to vote on bonds to supply any
possible deficit before work preceed.".
Before taking: action. Director Power
said exact figures should be obtained
from the board of works to show bow
the deficit of $40,000 was created. Hβ
paid the architects should have pre
pared plans within the limit of avail
able fund/*. The amendment we,*
rejected. 3 to 1, Mr. Power voting in
the negative.
Director Power moved that the board
recommend the purchase of land adja
cent to the Sunnyside school and asked
that the school yard be finished. This
was lost by a tie vote.
Julia Sarles of the McKlnley school
was granted two months' leave of ab
sence with half pay on account of

ory of Clara B. Earle, teacher at the
