Washington Shops’ Offerings to the June Bride ny ENORE HE June bride is so busy plan- ning her wardrobe _during these - last fleeting weeks I May that she scarcely has time to .think about even such excit- ing events as the Shrine convention.

Chiffons and crepes are being offered now . more than the conventional satin, largely because of their practicability for wear after the wedding. A soft satin crepe can be altered slightly by the removal of the bridal wreath sprays or satin ribbon which trimmed - It, and the addition of a rolled silver girdle or a bright colored flower, so that it becomes a dinner dress suit- able for both summer and winte Or, if the bride prefars. she can hav #_chiffon or crepe gown dyed in bright shude for evening, or in a Bridal gown of white satin flrlped! with exquisite lace. | conservative dark one for afternoon rccasions, and, with the addition of few little touches, the model will unrecognizable as her wedding | wn. With this second and wider use in vi a bride may feel that she can afford a much more expen- slve creation than if she were choos- ing it for one occasion only. However, there are many girls who still prefer heavy white satin sim to that worn by their grandmother: After the cerémoffy it is considered | appropriate to be worn at wedding ' receptions of friends or relatives, and| then it is carefully laid away in blue paper, awaiting a date in the dim| future when it may be used again. And even though it may never be unpacked, the sentiment is always there—a ~sentiment considered by =ome too precious to be sacrificed for the practicability of a gown which may be worn out. The model illustrated would be beautiful now and equally lovely as an heirloom. Simplicity marks its lines, but there is an elaboration of richness and distinction to the creation.

Boll three or four eggs until hard, let cool, then shell them and chop medium_ fine. Place them in a dish, add a few fine soft bread crumbs, one tablespoonful of grated cheese, four chopped mushrooms and one des- sertspoonful of chopped parsley.

A hen Boxer recovered from his curprise he began to grow a little uneasy. What if Mother Bear should discover him up in that tree? His first impulse wag to climb down and get away from there as fast as he fould. But Mother Bear would be sure to hear him climbing down, and She might reach the foot of that tree before he could get aw: Perhaps the best thinz to do would be to stay i shere he was. e Toger 'a1a just this. Mother Bear was 80 occupled with her bables that bevond continually testing the Merry Little Breezes with her nose, and listening for suspicious sounds. che did nothing else. You see, those three babies were too small to fol- Jow her any distance. She had simply brought them out for their first look at the Green Forest, and to play around close to their home. She looked as if she was the proudest mother In all the Green Forest, and very likely she was. “Seeing that Mother Bear evidently intended to_stay right close to those little cubs, Boxer began to feel easier in his mind. Then as fear left jeal- ous thoughts crept in. It was for these clumsy, homely, nearly helpless bables that he and Woof-Woof had been driven out into the Great World by Mother Bear. It was to these that Mother Bear had given the love she: had once held for Boxer and Woof- Woof. Boxers eyes grew red wnhl alous anger.

Some day I'll catch them alone and teach them it doesn’t pay to drive others out of their own home. Now, all this time it had never once | entered Boxer's head that those || funny little triplets were any rela tion to him.
