I said no word of Dioky’s chase of the supposed owl, of Katle's discovery of the red- bearded Transvanian in colloquy with Dicky, or of my suspicion and Lilltan's that the owl was in reality & man bent on frightening the girl, But Mrs. Tieer thoroughly startled me at the end of my story when she leaned forward and asked impres- sively: “Do you think that hooting was | from an ewl or a man?" T decided quickly that I must take & “middle-of-the-road-policy. 1 could not confide the things I = pected to Mra, Ticer, but on the oth- er hand, I could not tell her truth- fully that I thought the hooting was | from the throat of an owl. *“Why, do you think it might have beén a man bent on frightening the &irl?" I asked, carefully assuming an air of startled credulity. . “Well! what would you think?" she countered, “if about every third night at about the same hour each night, you heard an owl hoot in the queerest way, just as it it were counting the hoots, like this, hoo- hoo; hoo-hoo; hoo-hoo; then repeat Roughleg the Hawk Is Clever For besk and claws there's no ex- cuse ‘Without the wit to guide their use. —Roughleg the Hawk Roughleg ought to know. He has the claws and he has the beak. You know Roughleg is one of the larger members of the Hawk family. He is called Roughleg because his legs are feathered almosf down to the feet. | In the summer he makes his home in the North, but in the winter he | comes down to the Green Meadows | and there he makes his hunting | ground. Now, big as he is, Roughleg | isn’t much feared by Peter Rabbit | a New Serial that for three times, and then break off and begin again like this, hoo- h00-hoo; hoo-hoo; hoo-hoo! Then it when a girl heard the sound, she got 50 white you thought she'd faint, and then after five minutes or ®0 made some excuse that she wanted the air, put on her cloak, went out into the yard, walked down among those larches and stayed there for fifteen minutes or so, and when she came back looked as if she'd been staring death in the face, wouldn't you think something was wrong somewhere ?" Mrs. Ticer's voice was 80 earnest, that she evidently was so impressed with the idea that some danger was hanging over Miss Lincoln that I felt a quickening of the vague fear I myself had felt for the girl. Sud. denly I found muyself filled with compunction. I might have been | more neighborly, have tried to show Fleanor Lincoln that I was the sort of person to whom she could appeal it she were in any danger. But my neighbor was waiting for an answer, and I could give her no | other than the one which she evi- dently expected. “I certainly should feel as you do, that the girl s in danger of some sore,” I said slowly. “But what can | we do it she does not ask our assist- ance? Bhe is not the sort of person to whom you could say, ‘I'm afraid | you're in danger. What can I do for you'?" Mrs. Ticer laughed, although her eyes were worrled. ‘“Can’t you just see her freeze you | into icicles?” she asked. “No, there's | nothing anybody can do except keep | a watch over her without her know- |ing it. But T just had to tell | you about it and get it off my chest. it'’s been worrying me for a long time. Maybe you or Mis’ Underwood can figure out some way of helping her.” Copyright, 1928, Newspaper ' Feature Service, Ine. “Those mice are altogether too or Happy Jack Squirrel and not at all by Mre.

The bobbed head, the simple gown, the short and freedom-giving skirt were so sensi- ble that they felt that they were here to stay. Of course if any one were to propose that tomorrow everyone should appear in long draped skirts and long hair elaborately dressed, there would be open re- bellion. But that is not the way these changes are brought about, tut rather {s the change made gradually through several seasona. We are in the course of such changes now. Long hair, longer skirts, or short skirts and long draperies at sides and back show the trend. What has long hair to recom- | mend ita apparent revival? No one can dispute the fact that the bob- bed style brought with it a love for cleanliness and trimness that |never were part of the regime when long halr was the vogue. The head being round, any er- | rangement of long hair, except at the neckline, is bound to slip from its moorings arnd as a consequence, untidiness and wispy locks “are |the common order of the day— |and the night. So it behooves us all, i we wish to keep this trim- ness, to take thought now for the future, and not follow fashion I blindly if it dictates long hair again. ‘Copyrlght, 1928, NEA Service, Inc.

CHANGED LITTLE| 2 Yariation, Not Rldifll Depar- tars, Is Keynote Paris, Feb, 14, M—Variation, not change, is provided for spring styles by Paria There is to be no essential differ- ence between styles of winter and the new fashions of spring. Skirts will be a bit longer, waistlines a bit higher. Clothes have slipped a bit further away from the masculine silhouette. The ailhouette reveals .more of the figure without actually getting away from the straight, slender. outline, Main points of the most impor- tant dressmakers, collection indi- cate that more tailored costumes for morning and fewer sport cos- tumes for other purposes than sport are to be worn, The tailored suit with short coat and straight, wrap- around skirt is stressed at many houses. It frequently appears in the form of dark blue coat and light skirt, For afternoon wear capes will undoubtedly be popular, particular- ly when they are worked up in silk crepe and satins for summer, Many of these wraps show the scarf col- lar, a straight tie-collar attached only at the back and meant to be tied in & bow at the side of the neck, The new evening dresses stress printed chiffons, which are shown in large floral patterns as well as large plaids. The trailing drapery, chiffon panniers and petal godeta which float are more important than ever. One important designer com- bines printed chiffons and printed taffeta of identical pattern in eve- ning frocks with bustle backs. Bare Legs for Tennis Bare knees and calves are the edict of spring and summer for fashionables who play tennis along the Riviera. Bociety is warming up to the idea that tan is smart. One way to get 1t is to wear just as few clothes for sport as possible—very short sleeves and skirts, no stockings and no hat. For comfort tennis players wear short wool socks, with colored tops which match their hair bands and handkerchiefs. The socks are often rolled down to the tops of their tennis shoes and frequently colored handkerchiefs, glorified bandanas, afe worn like belts, tied around the walist of the dress. Rash of Polka-Dots Fashions have broken out with a rash of polka-dots. Perhaps the dressmaker who is most enthusiastic about polka-dotes is Mme. Nicole Grouit. S8he shows favorites spring millinery. Some of the millinery contributes for Easter wear haye small delicately hued blos- soms on them, inspired by flowers of the Alps mountaing. There are tiny popples also, made of fsin- glass or cellulold. They take the place of giass flowers which proved too fragile, Life-sized panthers are the newest maacot of Paris motor cars, Genuine skins are softly stuffed £0 that the animal looks alive as it lops over the arm of an elegaut Parisian, or sprawls on the cush- ions of her motor car. Tre high cost of panther skins i expected to assure the exclusive- ness of the mascots for some time. Wears Golf Beret Mlle. Simone Thion de la Chaume, who sets the feminine golf styles in Europe, has adopted the Basque beret for the links with the resnd that berets are now conaidered cor- rect golf apparel by the fashionable dressmakers and designers of sport clothes.
