WOMAN’S PAGE SEEN IN THE WASHINGTON SHOPS BY ELENORE DE WITT EBY. RISP. tissuelike organdy | frocks seem to have sprung | up overnight in local shop| windows, transforming them | into gardens filled with fashion's | flowers in all colors of the rainbow. They look so tempting, so delight- fully cool, to the hot passerby dress- ed in gabardine or crepe that she is apt to feel a sharp tug at her purse- | strings if she pauses to give them a | detalled inspection. A particularly lovely large flowers of flufty fringed yarn seem to grow up from the green baae. The long stems and narrow pointed leaves are crocheted with yarn a shade deeper than the grass, and the flowers themselves are in rich nas- turtium and violet tones. A cluster of smaller, more realistic blossoms 1s laid at one side of the waist, and lavender, blue and peach-colored rib- bons powdered with siiver dangle from them 1o the skirt hem. A similar frock in the same shop is of light lavender organdy over a foundation of white. The bodice is | cut basque fashion, but a narrow yoke | of finely-gathered white organdy and | diminutive puffed sleeves, also of | white, distinguish it from the other model. The skirt is opened at the front, so that the white foundation suggests 1 wide panel, and on this are clustered the bizarre fringed | blooms on their long dark green stems. There Is no sash at the walst- line, but a bouffant bow of lavender moire ribbon adds an effective touch at one side of the corsage. Another goup of dainty summer frocks includes several models of eluborately embroidered white organ- dy over colored slips. One gown, over turquoise blue taffeta, has sleeves and neckline piped with silk in the same shade. and a blue sash trimmed with an old-fashioned nose- gay of vari-colored flowers. Another one, over lavender, has a wide sash of plain white organdy which ends in a huge butterfly bow at the buck, with the rounded ends trailing almost to the floor. A third is made over a foundation of soft peach-colored crepe and trimmed with graceful drippini angel sleeves of gossamer lace. Tiny white beads stud the filmy edges, giving them a s slight welght, so that the drapery remains in place, A less formal summer frock I8 of tan satin-crepe, with a smart collar and side pocket of white embroid- ered organdy bordered with lace. It is made In one piece and opened up the side front, so that the skirt seems to be on “wrap-around” lines. The girdle is of self-materfal and is long and narrow, defining a low walst- line and tving in a loose bow at one hip. The single pocket appears at the opposite side and adds an unusual touch to the frock. Its most Inter- esting feature, however, is the long cape collar of accordion-pleated satin. It is edged with georgette in the {xame color tone and also pleated, at- tached with hemstitching. The small ollar of white organdy finishes it at the top and satin streamers tie in a how at the center front to hold it in place. The turban pictured might have { heen especially designed to go with the frock just described, so perfectly does it match the crepe-satin. The nedium is georgette crushed into tiny accordion pleats and then draped and wound about the close-fitting frame. A pin topped by a large sin- ®le pearl is stabbed Into one side to «dd the only touch of trimming. {The Guide Post By Henry van Dyke Profit From the Past.

BY PHILIP FRANCIS NOWLAN. RACIAL ORIGIN—Eng! SOURCE—A locality. The origin of the family name of Lincoln is simple. It comes from the town of the same name in Eng- land. Like all surnames of the same classification, it was originally de- scriptive of the bearer's place of resi- dence, or rather his former place of residence. In that period of the mid- dle ages when populations began to increase rapldly the supply of given names was overtaxed. The first re- sult of this was the tendency among parents to give their offspring new variations of given names, made up often by the addition of diminutives added to the name or a single sylla- ble of the name. Even this, however, was not enough when communication between various communities be- came more common and men moved more from place to place. It be- came quite usual to speak of this, that or the other Roger or John or Ivo by reference to the place from which he had come. Thus the name of Lincoln was originally preceded by “de. indicating “of Lincoln” or “from Lincoln." The place name itself is a relic of pre-Saxon days, being a compound of “lin” and “coln,” signifying in the ancient British tongue 2 lake on a hill. The Welsh is “liyn,” the Cor- nish “lyn” and the Gaelle “linne.” SMART _DRAPED TURBAN BEIGE GEORGETT) oF together again with piquant blue blows. Tiny pin tucks cross the bodice at the center front and a nar- row fold of organdy turned back like a cuff finishes the lower edge in place of a sash or girdle. The silver un- derskirt is held out at each hip with Maple Syrup Cake. For the cake take one cupful of granulated sugar, six tablespoonfuls of meited butter, three eggs well beaten, reserving one white for the felng, §ix tablespoonfuls of milk, one and one-half cupfuls of flour, and two teaspoonfuls of baking powder. Use any flavor desired. Make an icing with one cupful of maple molasses boiled carefully until it threads, beat the white of the egg to a stiff froth, add the sirup very slowly, and beat carefully until creamy. 1If a little too thick, add a little water. Baked Tuna Fish. Scald one cupful of milk with half a slice of onion and a sprig of pars- ley. Melt two tablespoonfuls of but- ter. and add two tablespoonfuls of flour and scalded milk from which the vegetables have been removed. Bring to the boiling point, then add one and one-half cupfuls of flaked tuna fish. Season with salt and paprika. Turn into a buttered baking dish, cover with buttered crumbs, and bake until brown. Cold cooked fish of any kind may be used for this dish. Tenderloin of Beef. Pare off the fat and remove the sinews of a whole tenderloin of beef. Cut the portions, salt and pepper them, and fry medium rare in butter in a pan. Dish up and garnish around with carrots, peas, caulifiower, string beans, and roast potatoes.

Term-End Exams. | Children, the school term is draw- ing to a close. The teacher is urging | you to prepare for the last examina- tion. You have been in school for the past nine months and it has be- gun to pall upon you. Lessons have become an old story. The teacher’s manner and charac- teristic speech have become familiar to you. You think you know just what she will say when you blot your composition on the very last line and you know just who will miss on the list of Presidénts and what she will do about it. School is an old story. It is, but it is a true story. It tells of your efforts to grow. There's a chapter of beginnings. You began to study French but when you reached the declensions vou couldn't force yourself to sit down and study them over and over until they came as easily as the letters of the alpha- bet. The teacher told you that it was the only way. but vou hated that way and dropped French. Then there was mathematics, You worked along very well until you reached quadratics. Th were hard. One little mistake, one exponent wrong, onee sign wrong and the whole things was useless. Besides you de- tested formulas. The teacher told yvou that the only way to get the best of algebra was | pleasant |of two little girls. and as beautiful las ever. When we were lunching ¥he told me that she didn't know whether she would ever return to the screen or not. She sald that if ny very interesting thing to do rose she would probably do it. but that she wouldn't seek anything of her own initiative. Evidently and wisely, T should judge, from having seen the stage piay, Alice considers “The Green Goddess” a very inter- esting thing to do. And so it ix.

A few weeks ago, during the May 1¥s, when the countrysides are ways glorious with dogwood and blooming fruit trees, a cartoouist made a scathing comment on the greedy folk who go out into the woods and flelds and fairly tear things to pieces in their desire to get all they can carry. A woman and child were shown grabbing the wild flowers vut by the roots, clutching ! their slender throats and reaching| out for others beyond. The man of | the group was up in a flowering tree. breaking off great branches with flendish delight. A car stood just beyond waiting for their ill-gotten plunder. We have all seen, during the beau- tiful spring days, car after car go by on Saturdays, Sundays and holt days loaded with the choicest bounty of the woods. Sometimes a fat, self- | ish face peers through the masses of bloom with which the tonneau is filled. How little such people to care that they have despoiled the lovely roadsides past which other motorists and hikers must pass. Their | only idea seems to be to grab a'l they can and carry it away to die, in a day or two, in their stuffy city apart- ments. The poor trees are left jagged and defaced, the banks of wild flow- ers are denuded and next vear there will be fewer and fewer blossoms to carry on the great message of beanty. ht to dig, dig. dig. until it came clear.
