Crocheted Berets and Ornaments BY MARY Bareheaded girls were _becoming alarmingly numerous. A year or so 8g0 we saw them on college campuses, in city parks, at the popular resorts and on warmer days we even saw them in the city streets at lunch time. The bareheaded fad was in truth growing until it must have caused some con- cern among the milliners. Actually there was no cause for alarm because the fad was one that soon lost its force. Women weni bare- headed nct because they did not want to wear hats, but because they found them uncomfortable, hot and irritating in warm weather. Now hats are en- tirely comfortable, and it is as easy to wear one as to go bareheaded. Take the new berets, for instance. Four or five years ago when the fashion fcr them was new, they were made of cloth or felt and were worn Beauty and YOVR wedding veil may be the filmiest one in the June bridal parade, but if you have a secret yearn ing to pull it over your face and let it hide your complexicn, you certainly won't be the most radiant maiden who keeps step to Mendelssohn. Beauty may be only skin deep, but if ever you tried to give a charming surface view you should do so on your wedding day. Don't give all of your attention to the hang of your veil and the sweep of your train. Think of your skin and hair and eyes. First of all, no matter how busy you may be, take a half hour nap before time to dress for the ceremcny. How- | ever, before the nap, cream your face, then relax in warm, scented bath while the cream sinks in. After you have removed the cream with cleans- ing tissues, lie down and rest in a darkened room, with a fragrant face pack on your face. ‘When you waken remove the pack according to directions which it re- quires, cream your face and wipe the cream off again, and usz en astringent which is applied with cotton. Then pat the face gently. It may seem to you that you are forming a many steps on a day when time is at a premium, but your bridal veill will be delighted with the face it is going to frame. Make-up is next. You don't want to Jook flamboyantly gay or unusually pale. You want to be natural. Cream rouge is best. You can find the place where it should be applied by splashing cold water on your face and noting where your natural color is deepest. If you fill your cheeks with air, creating a balloon effect before rcuging, you will secure an effect that is much more even than the customary one. Remember that cream rouge should be applied with the third finger of the right hand in three small dots to form a triangle. The second finger should blend 1it. Powder should be applied with cotton puffs. Press it on, then remove the THE STAR’S DAILY PATTERN SERVICE No small wonder for its popularity for wrap-over effects are so charm- ingly slimming. t's a model too that is easily ad- Jjusted to the figure.

If you buy cne of these new cro- cheted berets you will find an elastic in the edge which is used to hold the beret in place. You may wear yours untrimmed or with the addition of a clver pin, feather ornament or clip. A double ball pin is shown on the beret sketched, but its place may be taken byd: feather pompom or small feather pad. Ycu may be inclined to buy several berets for your vacation wardrobe, but actually one pure white beret will serve many purposes, its appearance | being changed by the trimming used | and by the manner in which it is worn. My Neighbor Says: Never salt fresh meat when frying it. Salt tends to extract the juice and at the same time harden it. On sweeping day make good suds in a pail of warm water and soap, add three tablespoonfuls of kerosene oll, dip your broom in this and shake the water off, then sweep in the usual way. Dip the broom frequently, for it will take up lots of dirt. You will find that it will brighten your carpet and there will be no dust to settle back again on the furniture, If a drawer runs unevenly and causes trouble in opening and shutting, it is not always neces- sary to have recourse to the car- penter, for frequently the very simple method of rubbing a little soap on the inner edges of the drT:ver will overcome this diffi- culty.

The shadow goes on the eyelids. For normally set eyes, only the half of the eyelid nearest the temple is tinted. Small eyes look larger if the eyebrow and eyelid are darkened. Brush your eyebrows.

There was a true idea behind Theo- dore Parker's habit of addressing God in prayer as “Thou are Father and| Mother both.” It is a satisfying thought that God resembles a mother as well as & father; for we are sometimes afrald even of father, but never of mother. God’s love, like our mother’s, is never dying. A boy may be wayward, may sink into deepest disgrace; but his! mother will love and cherish him still; though all the world besides cast him off, she will be ail the world to him. And like that is God’s love toward us. We. may sin grievously and bring dis- grace upon ourselves; but He yearns over us still, and ever waits to forgive and recelve us back into His loving arms. God, like our mother, sympathizes with us. You see a little child run to his mother with some childish trouble or hurt feelings; and by her sympathy the mother soothes him, calms him, reasons with him, and reassures him that all will be well. In a like sympa- thetic manner does God deal with us. “He knoweth our frame; He rémembereth that we are dust.” We never fail to get His sympathetic hearing and kind- 1y help when “in everything in prayer | we make known our requests to God.” God, like our mother, is nearest to us in our sorest needs. Look at the mother in the sick room. The rest of the family may tire out; the best | trained and most faithful nurse may be overcome with fatigue and heaviness of eyes; but a mother never seems to weary, never slumbers nor sleeps; if she does sleep, it is with one eye open and her ears alert, watching and listen- ing for the least sound from the sick bed. There is nothing that draws mother so near to us as to be sick or in sore need. And so of God; His at, loving heart is always beating in tender sym- pathy for the sick and for the sore, for the suffering and the sorrowing. Never does He seem so near and precious to us as when we are in trouble or dis- tress. There are no watchers like God and mother. “As one whom his mother com- forteth, so will I comfort you.” What a difference it would make in our lives if we could only realize how tender is God's love and compassion and would always trust Him. What needless fears we suffer, and what needless pains we bear, because we fail to realize and trust the mothering care of God! FOOD PROBLEMS BY SALLY MONROE. | Gelatin.

XIr. TREE HOPPERS. Family Membracidae. UCH shy, grotesque creatures, but how destructive! Along branches of your favorite fruit tree you will notice what appears to be a thorn or bit of bark. “Ah!” you say, “my eyes deceive me,” the thorn ap- pears to move. Looking closer you will see the strangely formed tree hopper. There are over a dozen dif- ferent kinds of tree hoppers to be found in the orchards today and they like to feed on the alfalfa or clover plants which are often grown as a cover crop under or near the fruit trees. Although the hopper is partial to warm weather, she does not go South in the Winter. The mother hopper is an expert in judging the wood of trees in which she places her eggs. One-year-old wood is her choice. On the lower branches she makes a clean, lengthwise cut in the bark, five to seven feet above the ground. The wounds are most un- sightly, the tender bark curls away from the tree, leaving ugly scars. Into the deep cut the mother places her | eggs. One at a time, until five or six are placed in a cradle. she continues making little shallow bed rooms for her babies, until she has placed 100 to 200 eggs. There they may stay for several months, or from late July or the middle of September until the following April or May. Then some warm, humid morning they leave | the epeshell and drop to the earth. Thousands of tiny hoppers are seen coming from the scars in the bark of the trees. They step forth from the eggshell and fearlessly drop to the ground. A long plunge, when you con- sider how tiny they are. After getting their bearings from the sudden fall, their first thought seems to be, “Where do we eat?” And if there are tender plants and leaves under the trees, some delicious clover or alfalfa heads table is all set and the little start destroying the plants by sucking ! the juices from the leaves. Hidden down in the plant you will find the little ivory colored creatures looking for all the world like tiny ferns. The baby hoppers outgrow five coats and in July they are full-grown tree hoppers with wings. They are dressed in dark brown or green suits. Then they begin thinking of having a home of their own up tn the trees, where they first saw the light of day. The watchful birds seek the cradles and the adult hopper. The toads go about looking for them. Many kinds of insects prey upon these tree de- formers. They are so numerous and leave their mark upon thousands of | Well of all things, | fine sieve, place them so that they will trees. Watch for their calling card as you take your hikes.

If corners have been knocked off tables, chairs and cabinets and the pleces are lost, a simple remedy is to mold with plastic wood, which can be bought from any large store, a plece exactly like the original. The plastic wood dries very quickly, so that it is well to study carefully the work to be done before making unsuccessful attempts. After the new plece is dry varnish it with pale or dark varnish, as required. In the case of weathered oak leave it as it is after having sandpapered it.

It is a hopeless feeling that makes you feel helpless, and with it there is almost always a terrible fear.

He had had but one thought, to catch Kit. When at last he was so tired that he could run no more Kit hed simply disappeared. Kit was not tired out. He had trotted off out of sight of Flip, then circled around and headed straight for home. You see, Kit wasn’t lost. No indeed. The desert was familiar to him and he knew just where he was.

But he soon realized that this would get him nowhere, so he stopped howling and started on. He could see the tall black shape of a giant cactus. He remembered that it was behind a cactus that Kit had first leaped cut. ‘When he reached this cactus he realized that this was not the one. A liftle way to one side was another.
