WOMAN’S PAGE. Trimming an Organdie Dress BY MARY MARSHALL. French dressmakers are looking for- ward to a really warm Summer. They are hoping to have plenty cf sunshine and clear skies so that the cool, light- weight dressas of organdie and batiste that they have prepared for June, July | and August will be as appropriate as they are attractive. They are hoping to see a revival of wide-brimmed hats and parasols. In this country there is little uncer- teinty in this respect.

In & blind close to the nest of Cocky the Road Runner sat Farmer Brown's Boy. It was terribly hot in there and he never had been more uncomfortable in his life, but not once did he think of go- ing back to the ranch. He was 100 much interested in that queer nursery right in front of him. To begin with, there was one egg and four babies, each rently of different age. ‘It is certain,” thought he, “that these Road Runners are not like most birds in their family matters. Most birds lay all their eggs before sitting on them to | hatch them. It must be that the Road Runners don't do that or all the young ‘would be of a size. One of those young- sters is almost ready to leave the nest now, and cne hasn't been out of the shell more than a day or so. That cor- tainly is a funny arrangement. I won- der if that is so that Cocky and his mate will have only one at a time to WOITy over when it is time to leave the nest. their legs that the real dangers begin for these little fellows. stay in the nest they are safe, for the spine of that cactus must be absolute protection for them. Hello, here comes | some one.” It was Mrs. Cocky scrambling up to the nest and paying no more attention to those sharp spines than if they didn’t exist. Held crosswise in her bill was a small Lizard with a long slim tail. The biggest. baby opened a big mouth and Mother promptly stuffed that Lizard in head first. Down it went, all but the tall. Then it seemed to stick. Mrs. Cocky appeared to take no notice of this. She gave a few minutes of at- tention to the others and then hurriedly departed. There were three other hun- gry mouths to be fed, and that food must, first be caught. If you ever have seen a Lizard NANCY PAGE One More Baseraent is Given a Chance BY FLORENCE LA GANKE. Like most city householders, Martha | ¢; and Leonard lacked sufficient rcom in their home. With the children growing up, there was need for separate bed rooms. That eliminated the guest room and the play room. It was the Joss of the play room that bothcred them most. One day Leonard came home with an idea. “Tell you what, Mat, let's do over the basement for a play room—a sort of recreation room for young and old.” Here was his plan. The old furnace had to be replaced anyway, so a com- pact, new furnace was to be selected. ‘These furnaces have a good-looking outer jacket that is usually painted or finished in a plain color. The pipes are given a wrapping of specially prepared asbestos that makes them well insulated. By painting the walls with a specially prepared paint, putting down a floor covering made especially for base- ments—an asphalt tile—and by paint- ing the woodwork to match or harmon- ize with the walls and floors, a good- looking room results. Leonard planned to put a blackboard Jow on the wall for the children. For Martha's use he wanted to move down a shabby, but comfortable old rocker that she had always liked. An impro- vised sewing kit was placed beside it. ‘He had a well worn, but comfortablc Jounging chair.

You must have an organdie dress— either for afternoon or evening. If you cannot buy one ycu can make it yourself. Its very crispness makes this material easier to handle than chiffon or soft silk crepe. The sketch today suggests a simple way of trimming your organdie dress. The arrangement of circles is made by a doubling of the material that may be worked out in any sheer crisp mate- rigl. First cut the circle or oval of the desired size and then cut pieces of the material a little larger than the pat- tern. Arrange them on the dress on the wrong side, in whatever way you wish and baste in place, using the oval or circular pattern as a guide. After this you may have the material hem- stitched along the line of the basting or you may sew it by machine, letting the line of stitching continue between the circles. Next trim carefully around the edges, about one-sixteenth of an inch from the stitching. If you like you may make the ap- plications of colored organdie on white —or rather under white, since they are applied to the wrong side of the dress. My Neighbor Says: ‘When scaling a fish hold it un- der running water the whole time in the way fishmongers do. ‘This prevents the scales scattering and making a mess in the sink. The right method of scaling fish is to begin at the tail and scrape to- ward the head. Old pleces of velveteen should be saved for polishing cloths. They will answer the purpose of chamois for plate-cleaning, etc., perfectly. If you want to frost with meringue a custard or other des- sert to be served in a glass dish which you cannot put in the oven, place the meringue on the pudding and then heat the fire shovel red hot and hold it over the dish for two or three minutes and the meringue will become a delicate brown.

Once she brought a small mouse and once a big beetle. To the smallest one she brought a caterpillar. But Lizards seemed to be the favorite item on the bill of fare, and there was one time that morning when the two oldest sat looking very uncomfortable, each with a Lizard’s tail hanging from his bill. They looked so funny that Farmer Brown's Boy al- most laughed aloud. ‘When he could stand the heat no | longer he slipped out of the blind while | Mr. and Mrs. Cocky were away hunting. | He had lost count of the number of Liz- | ards that had been brought, not to men- other things. | I've wondered what use Lizards ar said he to himself as he made his way back to the ranch. “but now I know.
