wWOM AN‘'S PAGE Vacation Selections in Clothes BY MARY MARSHALL, Clothes for vacation wardrobes were hever more attractive than they are this year, and this is to & great extent due to the fact that they offer so much wariety. During the years that fashion went slightly daft about sports clothes there were straight short, dresses for golf and tennis and beach wear, straight short dresses for afternoon and straight short dresses for evening. The silhou- | | MIDDY DRESS OF WHITE LINEN WITH NAVY BLUE CHEVRONS AND TIE FOR COUNTRY AND SPORTS WEAR. ette remained practically the same from early morning till dewey eve. But now, fortunately, the sports type of afternoon and evening dress is thing of the past, and you may look fos and early afternoon and making your next appearance completely transformed in a picturesque afternoon dress of chif- fon, printed silk, die or cotton volle—a dress that will usually answer the purpose for informal dinner evening wear. The sketch shows a white linen middy dress that is especially appropri- ate for sports wear at seaside or lake shore resorts, and for the benefit of the home dressmaker there is a detailed diagram of the sleeve chevron, which was made from appliqued pleces of navy blue linen. The sides of the chevron are about an inch and three-eighths from lowest point to the end, and the band is about &, third of an inch in width. * On the dress from which the sketch was made the dot below the chevrons was made by & perforation in the ma- terial, edges turned under on the wrong side and lightly tucked in, and a facing of the blue material. It is much easier to produce a well rounded dot in this way than by applying the disc of blue material to the outside of the material. (Copyright, 1930.) A Sermon for Today BY REV. JOHN R. GUNN. Man Power. “A man shall be as an hiding place from the wind, and a covert from the tempest.”—Isalah, xxxii.2. The story is told that, passing the college buildings at Cambridge one day, a eynic accosted & gentleman com- ing down the stone steps. “And what do you manufacture here?” was the question. “Power, &ir,” said the gentleman, who chanced to be one of the professors. “Oh, indeed! What kind of power?” “Come along with me, sir.” He took him into & room. The wall was covered with pictures. “These are some of our boys,” said the professor, sweeping his arm. The cynic looked up. There were Edmund_Spencer, John Dryden, John Milton, Thomas Gray, Cole'fldgna Lord Byron, William Wordsworth, Lord Ten- nyson. They passed into another room and there were some more—Oliver Cromwell, Willlam Pitt, Lord FPal- merston, William Wilberforce, Lord Macaulay, William Thackeray, Bulwer Lytton, Abraham Cowley, George John Romanes. there? That was Sir ; the one behind it Jeremy Y the one behind it Bishop Lightfoot's.” The story contains a lesson much needed in this industrial age, when the tendency is to put the major emphasis upon the development of power plants, rallroads and factories, all relating to material wealth and progress. In the midst of our intense commer- clal and industrial activities we need to be reminded over and over of what Isaiah reminded his nation in his day. Judah was in grave peril. “How can we maintain our national strength and security?” was the question everybody was asking. Isaiah's answer to the question was that the stability and per- manence of the nation depended upon the greatness of its people, not mate- rial greatness.

Have you one of the slender, rounded flfires, all curves and feminine grace ch are fashionable this year and which will be fashionable for at least two or three more years? If you haven't you can achieve a good figure by wear- ing the foundation garments or _corsets, or whatever you choose to call them, which are being made now in such va- riety. However, you must not appear to be wearing any aid to a figure, therefore choose your support and your | kni underelothing to. give the effect of roundness, where necessary, but nover to give you the effect of being strapped or corseted. There are sevefal makes of undergarments which can be had cheap- ly in cotton or more expensively in glove silk, which have no bomes, but which Home in Good Taste BY SARA HILAND.

All undergarments nowadays should be fitted to give a really smart outline. Knickers should be made with a flat yoke in front and should be of the thin- nest material. If your figure has any tendency toward thickness wear one- piece garments that fit snugly so as to do away with overlapping vest and ckers, ‘These can be made of the thinnest knitted cotton, or of muslin, knitted silk of knitted wool, depending on the weather.

Place a stick through the center of a square of beef, then through one of pork, and so on until you have filled the stick, just leaving enough room at each end by which to hold it. ‘Then salt the to taste, roll in well beaten and cracker crumbs and fry in deep fat until they are a medium brown all over.

A famous surgeon tells how, s a small boy, he was delighted to find & beautiful fur-trimmed glove upon the sidewalk in Vienna. But when, in his childish rapture, he showed it to his mother, she said, “It will be a long time before you find the other glove.” If so many things didn’t come in pairs, it would be all r‘;ht to rejoice hl:,‘l the possession of certain individual ones. No one wants to get along with one eye or one ear or one lung. We want these organs to pair off and double up. One glove is of no use to a two-handed per- I&im. 73“' ‘where shall we and the other glove ‘Your heart is really a double affair. It is Joan without its Darby, & Juliet minus & Romeo. It is by means of the heart's love that the other glove is found, pro- vided the other person s a real mate. 'fl;en that little old heart is a real bi- valve. Ths is not meant to to scratch around and find the other half. No, the better thing to do is wait like Patience on a Monument, smiling u‘pon grief until the proper party ar- rives. ‘There are so many who are anx- fous to find their mates that it is well to repeat what the surgeon's mother said when she told him it would take time to find the other glove. Time is the right word at this point. But, just the same, every girl has a right to be- lieve that there is a matgfor her young he;rl: lomrwherfiin‘ & e proper tl to to find out whether the kind of fellow 10 appears in the offing is a mate fay the glove. Has he the same ideals and beliets?

You are par- ticular in matching silks to see that the shades are just the same or almost so. You don't want one part of your cos- tume to swear at the other. Still less do you want to have the color scheme of your heart look like a crazy quilt. Of course, no two hearts are just alike any more than two %loves are. As a matter of fact, the gloves are so cut that the right one won't go on the left hand or the left on the right, unless you turn them inside out. You don’t want to go through life mismated in an ill-fitting marriage, any more than you want to chase around in Winter with a kid glove on one hand and a woolen mitten on the other., Take time to find the other glove, (Copyright, 1930.) encourage you 10 snswer any inquiries paver provided a stamped losed. new _“Fashi ddressed envelope.
