F EATURES Popular Color; Difficult to Wear BY MARY Gray has been much affected so far this summer by women who follow the fashion, and sometimes the re- sult has been good and sometimes it has not. Therc is something unde- niably smart about the right sort of gray costumes. You cannot deny that it is a difficult color to wear. Some good authorities on such mat- ters insist that it the most difti- eult of all hues. There is no tone that ®uch unfavorable advantage ypears to s gray LONG GRAY B LACE MEROIDET in sive inexpensive black n is 4 good mater providing black e positively tabric 15 Tnere are | man elf ch on fany means weak.

Unless the gray of your hat matches the gray of your frock exactly, far better would it have been if you had not attempted to be a symphony in gray. Then gray is of such variable be- comingness. It enjoys or suffers from the reputation of belng very becoming to older women. ‘The woman with white hair or hair quite gray is urged to wear it. But as a matter of fact, unless the gray or white haired woman has a clear, fairly radiant complexion, the gray is apt to be deadly unflattering. But when you can wear gray and when the gray is of the right sort, then truly you are to be congrat- ulated. You then possess something of distinction that is lacking to the woman dressed all in white, in black, in blue, green or red. The sketch shows the costume re- cently worn by a smart woman who really appears to excellent advantage this tone. The frock was of gray cpe de chine with lace Sleeves em- videred in silver and flounces of the lace. It was worn with a large picture hat trimmed with aigrettes. (Copyright, 1924.)

During the frigid days of last win- ter I wrote about the amusing scheme of a young couple of my ac- quaintance who took a literary trip to the South Sea Islands. While the snow came driving down and the wintry winds beat against the win- dows, they read aloud descriptions of burning suns and scorching sands, of natives in one garment, tropical flowers and fruit and sapphire blue seas, until they looked up in astonish- ment to see the curtain of snow bevond the window and the bare branches ainst a cold gray sky. I saw them again the other da and asked them if they were going to reverse their reading rograms for the summer. They said, “Yes, in- deed!” L “We have laid in a supply of chilly hooks for hot days,” smiled the wife. ou know, Bob doesn’t get much vacation this summer, but he comes home early every afternoon, gets into some cool duds and we go on the lawn and read. We went to the library together and made out a list of books on Arctic exploration, Alaska in winter, descriptions of the lives of the Eskimos and every sort of winter sport books we could find. We want to read these things, but if we do it in winter it makes us feel so much colder. Bob savs he has to go down and prod the furnace every few minutes if we undertake cold reading on a winter night. But n summer it works just the other way. Another rule we make is to cut out heavy reading in summer. No weighty histories, profound studies of conditions in Furope, statistical volumes or anything that makes us do serious thinking. We don’t read the popular novels exactly—that is, the silly sentimental ones; but we get all the clever, humorous books we can find and the whimsical ones, We read books of ‘recollections. These are generally filled with amusing stories and anecdotes of well known people, and are writ- ten in & rambling, chatty vein. They make excellent warm weather reading. “We take turns reading aloud. I read while Bob has his smoke and then he takes the book and reads while I work on my set of luncheon doilies. Reading ~is the coolest amusement 1 know of for city-bound people during the hot weather, and one can select volumes that bring a breath of fresh cool wind or a sniff of refreshinz snow Into the hot- test garden or room in the world.” Qi e High seas bookshops are becoming increasingly popular on transoceanic liners. frighten | THE EVENING DOROTHY DIX’S LETTER BOX EAR MISS DIX: nagging their Is there any wa. mothers until they are perfectly fran and food and rest until 1 can pull my me at the door with, “Are you going don’t you go to such and such a plac this and that” And when I beg her n was having an easy time.

True Neighbor Love. Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.—Matthew, 22.39. Precisely thus, and not otherwise, we should love our neighbors—with a steady, &ane, liberating and helptul love, which always seeks to bring out their best. ‘We and they are bound up together in the bundie of life. We cannot advance if they go back- ward. ‘We cannot be truly happy if they abide in misery. We cannot be really saved make no effort to save them. We must withstand in them, just as In ourselves, the things that are evil and ought not to be loved. Religion does not tell us to love or to encourage Qur neighbor’s faults, but to love in’spite of their faults and to do what we can to better them. True nelghbor love, then, ‘will not be a weak, gelatinous, sentimental thing, 1t Will have a conscience. It will be capable, on occasion, of friendly warning and reproof. It will even accept, it need be for the protection of ourselves and other neighbors, the duty of restraint or punishment. 1 may have a rowdy or a thief for a neighbor, but my love ought not to embrace rowdiness or thievery in him any more than in myself. The same thing is true of malice or envy or laziness or a. slanderous tongue. b i if we Hookbinders have some remarkable bargains in towels, 1 bleeve 1ll stop in there tomorrow and order some.

STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C. THURSDAY, WHEN WE GO SHOPPING JULY 17, 1924, BY MRS. HARLAND H. ALLEN. “Mocha” Gloves. As you sit at the glove counter, el- bow on a small cushion, fingers out- stretched so that the saleswoman may fit on them the new mocha gloves you have bought, do you know just what is the “mocha” leather from which they are made? Now, “mocha” gloves, though dls- tinctively American in origin and manufacture, are made from the leather produced in far-away coun- tries. The skins are grown in Arabia and Somaliland, and are brought by tribesmen to Aden, the world’s mocha market. It is said that the leather was formerly brought to Mocha, an Arabian port on the Red Sea, and it is probable that the leather took its name from the town, The leather is graded for size and weight, sun-dried and treated with a preparation that protects it from worms, and put up in bales, about three hundred skins to the bale. The trade classifies the skins as heads,” “black-heads” and ed- head: according to the color of the hair on the animal's head; and the types of glove leather rank in qual- ity in the order named. Black-head mocha is quite halry, and of tight, firm texture. White- head mocha’ is more woolly In effect, and of looser fiber, and the red-head skin is even more loose and woolly. The leather is dressed in this country, and the process results in_a very soft, velvety finish. In general, mocha gloves are ex- tremely well-wearing, but, since they cannot stand moisture, becoming hard and stiff when wet, they are not suitable for sports wear. Then, too, mocha gloves are made up in delicate colors, which should not be subjected to the soiling or_ staining incidental to rough wear. The most frequently seen color is gray, but the fine grades of mocha gloves are available in colors like _biscuit, beaver, brown, tan, mode and mastic. The mocha you see in the stores resembles suede somewhat, but the resemblance is merely superficial, as suede and mocha are quite different in character. Mocha leather is “friezed” instead of ‘“sueded.” The outer surface of the gloves is on the grain and not on the flesh side of the leather, as suedes are, and “friezing” merely’ removes the grain, leaving the strength of the outer skin, which is lacking in suede. Mocha gloves are considered slightly more formal than Cape gloves, but they are suitable to wear with a business suit or a tailored cos- tume, or with semi-formal afternoon attire. Mocha gloves should not be purchased to wear on occasions Where their delicate colorings will be subjected to solling or staining. Our Chfldl'ell—By Angelo Patri The Car. The cottagers live at the upper end of the lake where the pines are not so thick and the soil is very sandy. The mothers like that end because the children love the sand and the water is shallow and kind to the pad- dlers. But, of course, the children grow past the sand pail and shovel and the shallow water and look out for some- thing more exciting to fill their days, There's always the car. Once beyond the sandy stretch, there lies the smooth State road that invites to swift journeving past little houses and staring cows and startled horses and scowling motorists—past every- thing that is toward something be- yond.

They do not talk it before strangers. That is why my brother looked angry. He thought you went away, so he started talking Romany.

Plant Life in District of Columbia Bellwort. Tvularia 'Perfoliata. Not showr, but a singularly graceful little woodland plant, is the dainty bell- wort or straw bell, a modest little flower that at this time of year we may find scattered about in damp woodlands little gossiping groups,” as Mabel Os |800d Wright expresses it. It is quite frequent in Rock Creek Park and in the woodland areas outside the District. The bellwort grows to a height of 6 to 18 inches, and is found from Maine to Florida, west to the Mississippi. Th plant is smooth throughout, with a for! ing stem. There are one to three leaves below the fork and numerous leaves above. These leaves are of interest, for instead of being attached to the plant stem by means of a petiole or attached directly at the basal margin, as are the majority of leaves, each leaf is pierced by the plant stem at about a quarter of an inch from the basal mar- gin. They are about two inches long. | oval, tapering to a point. The flowers are bell.shaped. about an inch long and pale yellow in color, or straw Yellow : hence the common name. straw bell. They droop singly from the tips of the branches, rarely in twos; lit- tle sylvan bells silently ringing in the advent of plant life's new year. There are six petal-like sepals, which are grandular-rough within (probably for the benefit of visiting bees) and spread- ing lily-like at the tips. They are deli- cately fragrant, another help or guide for the bumblebee, with its mission of cross-pollenization. Owing to their delicate nature and to overzealous gathering at the hands of thoughtless people, many of our most charming wild flowers are in imminent danger of extermination. Some should be picked but sparingly, some not at all. The bellwort is among those which should not be picked at all, at least near large towns and touriste’ points. It is a handsome little flower, admirably set off in its woodland habitat, so let us leave them for others to enjoy and to| beautify their natural haunts and wild surroundings.

Of course, they always had bread in the house, and served it at every meal. But the little girl's mother noticed that she did not seem to care for bread. Naturally, that worried | | | | her, not only because bread makes little girls healthy and strong, and helps them to grow up, but because bread is so good to eat—just with butter on it, or with milk or jam and fruits, and other nice foods that you like. So, thinking about bread one day, the mother discovered the reason. It was simply because the little girl had not tasted the bread! Perhaps you will think that is strange, but you will understand why when you know what the mother found out. Stories for Folks It happened that the bread served in their home was always cut very | thin, for a great many grown people prefer bread that way. But men who have made a study of such things tell us that we do not really get the taste of bread when it is cut thin They learned that in order to really et the taste and the flavor of any iood, we must put into our mouths a fairly large picce of it. Not too much, of course, for that would not be good manners—but just enough to chew on until your tongue can enjoy the full delicious flavor. | Well, in the case of the little girl | we were talking about, the mother| tried a plan to sce if this was so. She | took a loaf of bread and cut it into | slices just about twice as thick as it | was usually served. And she said ! nothing about it. So when the little | girl came to the table, her mother | watched to see what she would do. Soon she took a generous bite and her face fit up with picasurc. “Aly, but that's good!” she cxclaimed, with delight. “What kind of bread is this, | Mother dear?” Then her mother told her. “It's the same bread we've always had, and the flavor of Corby's Mother’s Bread | is always exactly the same. The rea-| son you like it better today is because of the way I cut it—because you| never have really fasted bread be-| fore.” And the little girl always liked bread after that, and had ever | so much fun telling her f{riends about it. So, perhaps it may be that you, too, have never tasted bread. If so, just’ ask your mother for a piece of Cor- by's Mother’s Bread—sliced just right—so that you can get every bit of its delicious flavor. Coprright 1924 by Advertisement.
