Avenues of Fashion For the Gentleman realization of the benefits that accrue from sun and bathing, that | attire for this purpose should grow apace in variety and appropriate- ness. Those who follow the sun both in Winter and Summer have set cer- tain surf and beach standards of fash- fon which any one would do well to follow in order to achieve correctness and smartness. All of the articles of apparel noted in this column were seen worn by “well-undressed” men at such authen- tic sources of beach fashions as Palm | Beach, Nassau, Biarritz, Cannes and other French fashionable places. While the current opinion may be that attire for the beach is growing &cantier and scantier and less and less, the contrary is really true, * ok ok x ll,\mn ES of the beach are con- stantly finding new and inter- esting articles of apparel to add to the comfort and color of their beach | costumes. At many beaches, pools and bathing places there is no longer IT 18 but natural, with the growing | any objection to the so-called “shirt- Jess” bathing and for this purpose geveral smart modeis in trunks have | been developed. The most practical | of these is the fairly heavy ribbed worsted trunk which. by nature of its construction, adheres closely to the lines of the body and affords a high degree of comfort, freedom of action &nd support. With these trunks good taste pre- scribes a beach shirt for wear when not actually basking beneath the sun or in the water, I\ ANY men, however, still prefer a top to wear in bathing and of these is the even two-inch striped the smartest spaced horizontal 4 worn with the gray or blue flannel bathing shorts. The most favored color scheme for the shirt is gray and white or blue and white to harmonize with the respective trunk colors. K STRING belt, either white or| colored, is the modern variation of this necessity. String belts, by the way, have the true nautical flavor that is in keeping with watering places. Another smart touch for wear With | Nature’s Crow’s BY LILLIAN COX ATHEY. NCE you know where to look | for the building sites of crows, you can fully appreci- ate the reason for naming the metal or canvas basket, which is attached at a high elevation on the | foremast of a vessel, the crow’s nest. | Mrs. Jim and her family use their home and such places as a lookout tower also. The tallest trees at the edge of the woods or those along the hedgerow, and especially those bordering a new- ly ploughed field, are choice building &ites. The nursery is always a bulky affair, though it varies in size, The latter part of April is when you will see crow matrons and brides looking over possible sites. For the outside walls, sticks, dried sod, grapevines and cedar bark are used, while the interior is made comfortable with grasses, moss and horsehair. Then the mother places from four to seven pale bluish- green eges, that are slightly specked | with brown, upon the horsehair mat- tress. Father takes up fis position as watchman either on the rim of nurs- ery or close by. In fact, there is al- ways a crow scout on duty. Any sen- tinel, who is caught asleep at his post, has & trial by a jury of his peers. If found guilty, he is often ostracized and even executed, depending upon | the gravity of his crime. ‘The crow on the lookout broadcasts all important things that come with- in the range of his vision.

In following Nature's Children in your paper, you learn how few of our inventions and gadgets are really original. In some cases the methods used by them for centuries are much better than ours. Jim’s reputation for pure cussedness has been given so much publicity that the other side of his nature has been overlooked. He makes a most interesting pet and learns to do tricks quickly. He is devoted to the mem- bers of the household. but he loves dearly to tease the other pets. His weakness is bright-colored trinkets | and he hides all he can carry away. The black mark chalked up against him has caused a price to be placed upon his head in some States. He will eat baby turkeys, ducks, chickens and birds. As for eggs, he breaks the shells and eats all he can hold on the spot. The small animals he carries to his castle to enjoy. Too much stress has been laid on Jim's following the plough to pick up the dropped corn. He is extremely fond of juicy grubs and baby mice. These are often turned up with the fresh sod and Jim is on hand to see to it that he gets the delectable tid- bits. As crows are to be found all over the United States and they have es- tablished gathering places, why not attend one of their conferences next Winter and see what more you can | learn about the somber-clad fellows.

According to tra- dition, his chateau was destroyed during the religious wars in France and he was forced to flee the country. |He crossed the borders and took refuge in Holland. It is said that seven years later he returned to his home in France and engaged in mili- tary exeditions. Hendrick Kip, the grandson of Ruloff de Kype, was the founder of the Kip family in America. He set- tled in New Amsterdam before 1643, and history records him as “a promi- nent man, enjoying the rights of a burgher.” His sons, Isaac and Jacob, became influential men of their time, Jacob being the builder of the old landmark, “Kip's Bay House,” 1n New York, in 1655.

TICKYTOES the Tree Toad drew a long breath of relief. Once more he fell safe. Mr. Blacksnake was no longer in that tree where Sticky.oes was living. He had given up hunung for Sticky- toes and glided down the tree and away. Stickytoes had watched him disappear, and that was why he had drawn this long breath. “My,” eaid Stickytoes, “I certainly had a narrow escape tna: time! I had forgotten all about that fellow until he suddenly appeared.

He braced himself with the sharp pointed feathers of his tail and then he began to pick ants | from the trunk of that tree. You see, he had chosen a spot beside what was really an ant highway, up and down which ants were moving most of the day. Stickytoes moved over nearer to the trunk. Some of the ants were coming cut along the branch on which he was sitting. He liked ants. “They are good, aren’t they?” he ven- tured at last, as he darted out his long tongue and an ant disappeared. You see, that tongue was sticky on the end and when 'L touched that 2nt the latter just stuck to it. Yellow Wing looked up. “Hello, | Stickytoes,” sald he. “Yes, these ants are good. There is nothing in. the world that I am more fond of than | ants.” “Did you know that Mr. Blacksnake was up in this tree a snort time ago?” asked Stickytoes “I hate that fellow,” replied Yellow | Wing. “He is about the only one that | Mrs. Yellow Wing and I worry about | when we have a fami 1 shouldn't think any one as big s you would be worried by him,” said Stickyto2s. “I am not afraid of him myself, nor | is Mrs. Yellow Wing, but he is one | of the very few who can get our eggs | or the babies in the necst.

I wonder if I can find where they are living. They are coming up the tree, so they must be coming out of the ground somewhere. I think I'll drop down and have & look. It is much easier to get them right at the nest.” “That may be so0,” replied Sticky- toes, “but I can get them fast enough to suit me up here, and I certainly feel a lot safer than I would on the ground.” 8o the two lunched and gossiped to- | gether until finally Yellow Wing fol- lowed out his own suggestion and went down on the ground. Sticky- toes topped off his lunch with a tree cricket by way of dessert, and then made himself comfortable for an after-dinner nap. (Copyright. 1935.) Psychology BY DR. JESSE W. SPROWLS. | Being Different. QOME persons seem to take 8 pride | in what they call “being different.” | Somehow they get the notion that | this “being different” is a mark of, distinction, or a symbol of some un- usual understanding. All one needs to do to be “different” is to be one’s self. Nature, it seems, has provided for differences enough to make this world interesting | But when one goes out actively io acquire the habit of being different | one runs the risk of living in a world of unrealities and shams. Keep up this practice and you will find your- | self up against the enormous problem of making the world over every time you make & social contact. | ‘Your social world is, of course, some- | | thing like & rock. It has its own re- | | sistance to change of position or status. | The errors in nature will account for | the variations in nature. The errors in human understanding are rtspon-\ sible for the self-made differences ' I'VE GOT TO SAVE ON LUNCHES NEW STOCKINGS “Honest, these runs are getting in my hair,” wails Janet. “Seems as if I can’t move a muscle but a run pops. They keep me so broke I can’t buy a decent lunch! “Sounds like a bad case of cake-snap rubbing,” decides Ruth, “That, or usmg ordinary soaps with harmful alkali can ruin stockings quicker than anything I know. Switch to Lux and see if it doesn’t do the trick. I haven’t had a run in a month of Sundays.” THRIFTY GIRLS cut down on costly runs by using Lux. It saves stocking elasticity. Ordinary soaps containing harmful alkali and cakesoap rubbing weaken elasticity so threads break into runs easily. Lux has no harmful alkali. Safe in water, safe in Lux.
