M Advantages in AGAZINE PAGE Guimpe Dress BY MARY MARSHALL. HE latest thing on the program is the guimpe dress. One might consider it as the last word in tuck-in blouses. A few years ago, you may recall, the only possible way to wear a blouse was in manner. To wear a blouse under the skirt gave one a curious short-waisted effect that seemed too ab- sured—untf], of course, some of the the bullt-up skirt that gives the blouse an even greater opportunity to tuck in and now as the final development there |is the mpe dress that permits the | blouse to hide itself even more.

Once he chuckled as he thought of how surprised Tapper would be if he should return before those holes had filled again. He had taken the sap from one hole and was lapping it from another when his feast was rudely interrupted. He was struck and struck hard by some- thing sharp that hurt and almost knocked him from the tree.

He was very angry and Chat- terer had no desire to be within reach of that bill again. He could move on that tree faster than Tapper could, so he had no trouble in keeping out of reach.

PENDING all your life in a cem- etery is enough to make even a tree sad and inclined to droop and this tree has more than its share of standing beside tomb- stones in a lonely spot way off from her friends and family. Willow trees are happlest when in company with their own children or sisters. The willow foliage is fine and makes a lovely shadow effect when planted along the edges of ponds. This genus is known frcm the equator to the Arctic Circle. There are 170 species and many related hybrids. Nearly all pre- fer moist soil, but a few prefer dry soil. There is no climate or soil that cannot boast of its native willows, The willow trees bloom very early in the Spring and the bees are heard booming and rushing in search of the pollen and nectar. In June the willow seed is ripe, and while there are seeds in abundance and each little seed is | supplied with the means for flying on the wind, they are lost by the wayside, and few get a chance to grow. The wood of the willow is very light and weak. The trees have many uses and make superior charcoal for gun powder. - The wood is excellent for Summer fuel, artificial limbs, willow- ware, wooden shoes, and the toughness of the willow twigs makes them very easily handled. Carriage bodies, bas- kets, hampers, all kinds of wicker work and much furniture are made from them. The trees are planted in rows along a rive- bank and are often planted as fence posts. This serves a twofold pur- pose. The trees will later grow in a straight line, and while they are grow- they act as posts for fences. Holland and other countries, wil- lows are planted to hold the banks of streams and ditches. It is said that willow branches were used to form the first jetties that kept open the channel of the Mississippi. Where quick-growing trees are need- ed, willows are in great demanc. Sub- urbs heing developed use the willow as an ornamental tree. The willow does not grow into very tall trees, but they do spread and supply many a weary traveler with codl and shade. The weeping willow originally came from Asia, and has the reputation of being the one most used for waterside planting and for standing guard in cemeteries, (Copyright, 1932) . Graham Cracker Cake.

You would have to go to one real estate agent after another and make personal appli- cation. Some of them would not object to one child. Since you live in Washington you are apt to do better in the renting of rooms than in other cities as there are S0 many young people who work for the Government and whose families live elsewhere. If you try it in any other city get your apartment, if possible, near some large factory where there are a lot of young men, unmarried, or fle.re near a university or college. There is greatly decreased congenial, because it not only means success, but happiness. Remember that you get out of life just exactly what you put into it.
