WOMAN’S PAGE, When Using Transparent Fabrics BY MARY MARSHALL. A foundation slip draped with oyster white georgette, gives an effect that is a beautiful mother of pear!, or ‘nacre,” as the French dressmaker would say. This season, when sheer fabri like Keorgette and chiffon, have been used 8o abundantly for both day and eve- of shell pink, WHITE LACE GOWN TRIMMED WITH BANDS OF FLOV ED PINK CREPE DE CHINE AND WORN OVER SLIP OF FLOW- ERED CREPE DE CHINE. | ning frocks, much attention has been given to effects that can be gained by laying one soft transparent color on top of another. Then with the flowered georgette and chiffons con- siderable attention has been given the subject of choosing underslips. Ior instance, a frock of white geor- rette printed with pink roses and creen leaves may be lined elther with white, with pink or with green. the material on top. French dressmakers, the problem by three tones beneath. would use a white slip, Some of the however, solve using two or even Thus they with thin | drops of green and pink. one on top of the other, and finally the white georgette printed with pink roses and green leaves. French dressmakers often use a slip or lining darker than the tone of the material on top. Thus a light georgette with figures (5 a violet or purple shade might be 1ade up over a deep. violet slip, angi quite fre. quently transparent white materials are made up over black A really interesting effect can be gained by using varnished crepe de chine under black georgette or chif fon, and some clever dressmakers have produced a charming resuit by using light chiffon or georgette over foundation slips of glazed cretonne or, chintz. None of the chintz shows unveiled and the effect it gives when covered with the transparent fabric is that of some rich brocade. MENU FOR A DAY. BREAKFAST. Blackberries with Cream.

Brown It is always a mistake to try to use some color or tone not contained in Responsibility. | Teachers are good, parents are bet- ter, books are helpful, but experience is the best teacher of them all. I know the story about fools, but if | that is true then it is also true that all men are fools. We always learn better and faster and hold on to our knowledge and use it more Intelli- gently if we gained it by personal experience. % It is not easy to supply experiences that are educative. In the first place, the experlence that teaches me some- thing may not teach you a thing. Your mind may not accept that e perlence. There is another experi- ence that is better for you. You must experiment until you find it. Pre- adolescence and adolescence is the time for experimenting and searching and learning. When a boy or girl is past 10 it is usually safe to begin giv- ing him a chance to_try himself a little. From then on he expands un- he is in full action at 21. The question is, how can we do it? How can we let the children get per- conal and valuable experiences? Test the experience by the responsibility it carries. If the child cannot accept the responsibility for a completed job | it s not the most educable one for | him. It may even be a dangerous one. For Instance: a girl cannot under- take the feeding of her baby brother and be responsible for his growth during the process. If she forgot to wash a bottle or to measure a meal or skipped serving one, somebody would h ave to go to the rescue of the | Vaby. She can help in his care, but she cannot accept responsibility for it. | But_the same girl could accept re- sponsibility for serving Sunday night | tea for the fam You see, even if | mother smelled the biscuits burning | #nd heard the kettle boiling and saw | ithe wrong plates on the table she | juld keep still and let daughter dis- | cover these things and their conse- | quences for herself. It would not matter very much if the family had | 1o fall back on bread and cheese for the evening meal for a couple of | times. Daughter would soon learn to master the situation and in learning | gain poise and power. . 1 The boy cannot be responsible for buying his whole wardrobe, but he | can earn and save enough to pay for certain parts of it such as neckties | and stockings, and when he is a bit clder, shoes and hats. 1f he spent he money or neglected to make the proper purchases, he could put up with the situation he had created and IODE MINIATURES Just let the thermometer hit 90 de grees and immediately the mental sit uation is how to be cool and look cool. Fans and mint freezes, fra- | grant lotions and perfumed baths can't do it all. Apparel, ves, even | jewelry, must help to achieve the | effect, if not the reality of coolness. And so we revert to crystal neck laces, for their clear transparency suggests quiet shaded pools and sparkling silver dew. Other interesting versions of crys- tal jewelry, reminiscent of old Eng- lish” pleces, are pins and cuff links with animal heads painted on them in the manner shown.

If you have a ccuple of half-grown children in the fanilly, look over their daily voutine and discover what they are doing that calls on them for real responsibility. If that quality in their training should appear to be lacking, try to find a post of duty for them There is no other way in which a child can grow in character. As long as he is freed of responsibility, as long as others shoulder it for him, he has no armor for his soul and stands naked before the enemy.

Favors for the Fourth. It's time to think about favors for the Fourth. Really, when all is sald and done, candy favors are the easiest to choose. The shops are full of appro- priate and very attractive candy fa- vors. A bit of red, white and blue ribbon or a flag converts a cake of |milk chocolate into a highly patriotic | favor. But there are some candy favors expressly made for the Fourth. There are various little nosegays made of red, white and blue gum drops—the blue is a difficult shade in it is fairly well accom- s There are boxes of candies wrapped in red, white and blue tinfoil and arranged in the design of a flag or an eagle. There are chocolate fig- ures of various appropriate sorts. All |these make appropriate table favors, and are especially appreciated where there are children. Then there are good favors of pa- per—flag fans that pull out of red firecracker cylinders or cigars, Wash- ington hats made into boxes for salt- ed nuts or bonbons, little cherry trees masking boxes for sweets, and many other appropriate and attractive knicknack THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D.

During the forenoon they are distinctly favorable. In the afternoon they are quite adverse, but undergo a decided change in the eve- ning and become benign and restful.

RACIAL ORIGIN—English. SOURCE—A locality. This family name has nothing to do with the given name of Ell. Elias or Elijah, though one might well ba par- doned for thinking that it has, in view of the small difference between the spelling of Ely and Eli. The source of this family name, however, s quite well established in the city of Eli, in Cambridgeshire. But the name of this city, unlike the ma- jority of place names in England, is not of Saxon origin. Ely was not named by the Anglo- Saxons, but by the Cambrians, a branch’ of the more ancient British race, the Celts, belonging, Itke the Welsh, to the Cymric branch. For a long time after the Angles and the Saxons had established themselves firmly in the rest of England the Cambrians maintained a separate kingdom of their own just south of the Scottish Gaels. | The more ancient form of the name | is “Helig,” which, in the tongue of the Cambrians, signified “the place of the willows.” NOWLAN.

It is the constant complaint of most people who wear glasses that the lenses become dimmed while they are motoring or taking a water trip. This dimness, which is due to condensation of moisture on the glass, can be pre- vented. In a small bottle shake up a mixture of methylated spirits and glycerin, allowing about four parts of the former to one part of the latter. Apply a small quantity of this mix- ture to both sides of the glasses, and it will be found that the application will help considerably to prevent dfm- ming of the lenses. Lime Sherbet. Squeeze the juice from four limes. Strain and add a cupful of raspberry vinegar, two cupfuls of pulverized sugar, and half a cupful of grated cocoanut. Cover and place directly on ice for two hours, then pour in gradually one cupful of iced tea, add- ing three sliced oranges and the stiffly beaten whites of two eggs. Prepare a lime sirup by boiling two quarts of water with one quart of sugar for 20 minutes. Add the juice and Brated rind of four limes.

Public Health Reports Show,Terrific Increase in Infant Mortality From Intestinal Disease During Hot Weather “Summer is the purgatory of motherhood,” according to Assistant Surgeon General W, C. Rucker and Surgeon C. C. Pierce of the United States Public Health Service, in a Supplement to the Public Health Reports. From 12 to 20 out of every 100 babies born in the United States die during the first year,and the majority of these deaths occur during warm weather. The principal contributing causes are given as improper feeding and intestinal disorders. Many valuable sugges- tions are made for proper feeding, sanitation and general care of children in summer. The mother should nurse the vyear if possible; if not, modified milk is the best substitute. Keep baby cool during hot weather, especially by proper clothing and frequent bath- ing in tepid water.

Many girls know how to arrange their hair be- comingly around thelr face and can even make a moderately good job of it along the sides, but when it comes to the back they are hopelessly lost. There are several ways of making the hair attractive in back. Severely shingled hair is apt to be stubby, but the half shingle—that is, the very mod. erate type of shingle—generally looks well because the longer top hairs curve under, and the effect is one of softness and fluffines Waved hair will look well if the wave is carried venly round the back, but allowed to go a little looser in back than in front, as naturally wavy hair does. Here's a trick for perfectly straight hair that refuses to look nice no mat- ter what is done to it. Brush it to- ward the side; that is, brush the back part of the head so that the hair goes slightly crosswise from left to right or right to left, whichever is most becoming. This method, which some one calls the “spir hair brush. ing, gives a decidedly wavy effect and is adapted to the straightest sort of | har. Here's another trick.

Some fortunate people possess this naturally, but if yours doesn’t grow this way of itself, it's one of the advantages of the shin gled style that you can achieve it ar tificially. It needs retrimming every couple of weeks, but in any case a shingle has to be redone every three weeks, so there's not much in it. Use a hot iron to turn under the ends of the hair in back if they stand out stubbornly. = Sugar cane s harvested today in the same primitive manner that it was 30 centuries ago.
