woM AN’S. PAGE Making Petal Boudoir Pillows BY LYDIA LE BARON WALKER. S S vy B4 PETAL PILLOWS ARE AS DAINTY AS SPRING FLOWERS. Last Saturday the use of boudoir pil- Jows in decoration was discussed, an 1 promised to give directions for mak- ing some styles of these dainty acces- sories. The first model, described in this article, will be the round petal pil- low; the second a description of the Erittany lace pillow, and the third, the linen embroidered pillow, will be given ! later in the week. Petal pillow covers may be made of | In the first instance | organdy or silk. the edges are bound, in the second they are picoted. The petals may be grad- uated, begining with the small size at the center. Two or three sizes are sufficient to obtain a desirable effect. Fold a strip of paper and cut a petal pattern by slightly curving from the edge to center. An average size is 312 inches long. A large one from top to center may be nearly 4! inches, while a small one should not be less than 21; inches. Unfold the paper and if the shape is not satisfactory continue cutting patterns until a perfect petal results. The extreme width of the petal should be equal to the height Fold a width of material in any of the sizes so that all the folds come along one side and all the edges at the other. Lay the pattern with its folded edge plumb with the folded edges of | the textile. Pin in position and cut the d | textile from where the curve begins. | This will leave an uncut strip along all bases, so that a string of petals will ap- pear. Bind the curved edges with col- ored bias binding, if petals are or- gandy, or send silk one away to be picoted. Silk petals should be cut large enough to allow for picoting without infringing on the size desired. On a circular silk or mercerized sa- teen pillow top, lightly draw circles 112 inches apart. The innermost circle should be 2 inches in diameter. Begin sewing the vetals to the foundation along the outer circle. petal or fold it at the center base until it measures 1 inch less than its length. Sew each circle separately to the foun- dation, so petals come together exactly where they meet. This may mean a slight variation in gathers or pleats. Fell a parrow strip or binding over raw edges. After the innermost circle has been covered with its row of petals, make a rosette of a gathered fold of yellow or- gandy or silk and sew it in the center. This will cover the final base of petals. Each row of petals should have the tops come alternately with those above it. This is called a “drop pattern” ar- | rangement. " (Coprright, 1929 The Daily Cross-Word Puzzle (Copyright, 1829.) 1.

Inaugural Mind. What moves the multitudes to Wash- ington and what moves the still larger multitudes to listen in today? Is a new era of government inaugurated today? No. A different governmental person- nel is about all. There are no real is- sues of any sort to be tested. The business of running will remain substantially the same as it has been for the last four years. But let time decide that question. The center of all this coming to- gether, all this listening together, all this wondering together is one man— | President Hoover. The psychology of the Nation today would be very much the same no mat- ter who took the oath of office. People are interested in people. For the present they are interested in one person, instead of in the usual many. | The social, the political mind of the Na- | tion is concentrated. The psychology of personality is the | fundamental factor in all that goes on| today in the way of admiration for a| hero. The average man is wondering how | it feels to be the center of such attrac- !tion. He is also ruminating about the power that is transferred to new hands today. The psychology of an inauguration in | these days may be taken as a measure of the concentration of the national mind. In the early days of our Gov- ernment, when the population was small, when travel was confined to the few, and when the means of rapid communication were undreamed of, the national mind was widely diffused. Be- cause it was diffused, the personality of the President was a relatively unex- citing affair. One could hardly picture President Hoover going to market alone as did William Henry Harrison. There's mystery in masses amassed. There's power in concentrated suffrage. ‘The psychology of personality attains a new high level of significance today. (Copyright, 1920.)

The French have a proverb that says that some women are all wives and other women are all mothers. Look around among your acquaintances and you will see that the women who are all wives keep their husbands, while the women who are all mothers lose theirs! There is a type of woman who never sees her husband as such after her first baby is born. From that day on to his grave he is just the children’s father, and he exists only as a slave to toil for them and provide them with clothes and colleges and sport car: ‘There are women who consider it far more important to cater to their children than to their husbands.

If she is a right-thinking woman she wants them to grow up and strike out for themselves and live their own lives. What folly then for her not to provide for herself against that day that is sure to come when they will leave her, by keeping up her interests in every direction and holding on to her friends with both hands. Finally, the ingrowing mother does her children a great wrong because she becomes a parasite upon them. She has given up everything for them, and so they have to give up, only too often, their happiness for her. Having no life of apart from their children, so they hang worse than no mother at all. (The truthful trio in this entertaining yarn consists of Mark Twain, Petroleum V. Nasby and Eli Perkins, all three of them American humorists.) Mark Twain and Petroleum Vesuvius Nasby dined with Eli Perkins at Perkins' residence in New York. The conversa- tion at the dinner I shall never forget. ‘The stories told and the reminiscences brought out at that dinner would fill a small book. After the last course, and after the ladies had withdrawn, the conversation turned upon horses. Finally Twain laid down his cigar and asked Perkins and Nasby if they had ever heard of a fast horse he (Mark) used to own in Nevada. “I think not,” said Nasby. “Well, gentlemen,” continued Twain as he blew a smoke ring and watched it, “that was a fast horse. He was a very fast horse. But he was so tough- bitted that I couldn’t guide him with a bit at all.” “How did you guide him?” asked El. “Well, gentlemen, I had to guide him with_electricity. I had to have wires and had to keep a battery in the wagon all the time in order to stop him.” “Why didn’t you stop him by hollering ‘whoa’?” asked Eli. “Stop him by hollering ‘whoa’!” ex- claimed Twain. “Why, I could not holler loud enough to make that horse hear me. He traveled so fast that no sound ever reached him from behind. He went faster than the sound, sir. Holler ‘whoa’ and he'd be in the next town before the sound of your volce could reach.the dashboard. ‘Travel fast?’ I should say he could. Why, I once started from Virginia City for Meadow Creek right in front of one of the most dreadful rainstorms we ever had on the Pacific Coast. Wind and rain? Why the wind blew 80 miles an hour and the fain fell in sheets. I drove right before that storm for three hours—just on the edge of that hurri- cane and rain for 40 miles.” “Didn't you get drenched?” “Drenched! No, sir.

Now, I don’t want to lie about my horse, Mr. Perkins, and I don’t ask ‘you to believe me, but I tell you truthfully that when I got to Meadow Creek my linen duster was dry as powder. Not a drop of rain on the wagon seat, either, while the wagon box was level full of hailstones and water.” “Look here, gentlemen,” interrupted Nasby, “speaking of the truth, did you ever hear about my striking that man in Toledo?” Mark said he had never heard about it. “Well, sir, it was this way: There| her own, she has to suck her life out of them.

In the first place the dress was of chiffon and-had no trimming save its own lines and colorings. It was not fussy and overdone. The back was cut low and since she had been wearing the backless tennis dresses and bathing suits she was not exposing an expanse of untanned skin. The dress had an uneven hem line which had changed from the down-in-back movement sv- popuiar earlier in the season to the down at one side. And the material was used to give a bouffant almost bustle line over toward one hip. With this dress she wore a loose, al- most casual coat of the same material. This meant she could go into a hotel dining room feeling perfectly comfort- able and well dressed. The coat was not finished with many seams and care- fully stitched linings.

When the hair is | PP a glorious color or of an extra fine texture, however, it may be worn longer and dressed so as to bring out its un- usual beauty. A large, bulky knot of hair at the back seems old-fashioned, because the modern coiffure is dressed close to' the | head.
