Lower V-necklines when found on daytime dresses are usually rather wide at the shoulder, so that even though | the point of the V is fairly low the | lines at the neck give an effect of | breadth. The deep, long, narrow V is rarely seen on the newer dresses. And, incidentally, this wider line that shows an inch or more of the shoulders at the base of the neck contributes to the rather broader shoulder line that is part of the present mode.

JESSE W. SPROWLS. Lesson From the Dinosaur. | Thousands of years ago the dinosaur | dominated the earth. It required many | centuries for him to attain his lordship |over his contemporary animal soclety. In order to do this he kept adding to his protecting armor of scales and plates, After he had added so much that he weighed tons, Mr. Dinosaur quit using his social wits and depended Upon his armor for his sole protection. He became an introvert, forgot about hatehing eges. and so his race perished from the carth. Those who make it their business to study the increases in the population of the United States from decade to decade find that, relatively speaking, our popu- lation is diminishing. Education seems to be the armor that man is taking on.

Mewwrins Straight Talks to Women About Money BY MARY ELIZABETH ALLEN. Readjustments in one’s scale of living | are always fraught with danger, wheth- er the standard goes up or down. The woman with more money than she ever thought she would have to spend may suddenly raise her standards to such exaggerated proportions as to run into extravagance and riofous living, thus blighting Ler own happiness. Tl year has 'witnessed an alarmin crease of shipw home: domestic workers versals or altered income. While it may not be pleasant to prac- tice heroic self-control, not only in the face of an al presence of the husband's altered dispo- sition as well, which is quite likely to occur in his struggle to make ends meet nevertheless, it is largely “up to the wife,” as in most problems having to do with the home. The woman with curtailments to make will do it in the most cheerful manner possible, If she is wise. Hard as red income, but in the | |1s the depression on her, she will not let “nerves” get the better of her, and she will do her best to bolster up the courage of her family, and to preserve their health and mental poise, ready for that time of plenty which follows every drought. In that way her loved ones will be ready for opportunity when it comes, instead of meeting it with a beaten and discouraged outlook, which is already half defeat. It may be necessary, in the mean- time, to move to a neighborhood where rentals are more toderate. But do not go in a spirit of martyrdom and self- pity. Tell yourself that such values are only relative, that it is just as hard for | the rich to give up marble-entrance halls when accustomed to them as for you to retrench on modern conven- fences. Cheaper goods and lowered food costs | make it easier to pare down the budget Not. only do the necessary clothes cost less, but it is considered bad taste to splurge.

This exercise is ex- cellent for stretching the front part of the body and the spine, but it must be avoided by those who are ruptured and by those with weak abdomens. Stand on knees, arms at side, trunk erect. Raise arms and bend backward, until position of “bending the crab” is assumed. It may be better to bend back with hands against a wall at first. Avoid this exercise in case of hernia or weak abdomen. LOIS LEEDS. On November 25 a recipe for a lemon massage cream was printed in this column. As a result of & mis- nt, one ingredient was left out.
