How about it, Mother Graham? If the lady puts her approval on the seat, will you honor me by driving with me ths afternoon ?*” Mother emiled. “If you're sure there's no one else who ought to go, in my place,” she said. “But surely there's room | for all of us in that car.” “No, this ride is just for you,” Mr. Underwood told her, ‘“unless you Graham bridled and want to take with you.” Junior looked ‘pleadingly at me, nodded my head toward Katherine. I did not wait to hear her decision, for Mr. Underwood was already holding the door open for me, and I went with him down the steps to the car.

Burgess Impatience never will attain The end that it is sought to gain. —Old Mother Nature Cubby Bear stood on the ground looking up in & little tree. It was too small a tree for him to climb, Grinning down at him from ncar the top was a stranger—a stra: ger to him, anyway. Now Cubby knew that that stranger was afraid. Had he not been afraid he wouldn't have climbed that tree. But there he was up the tree, and Cubby was doing his best to shake him down. But though he shook and he shook and he shook and he shook he couldn't make the stranger lose his hold. And the more he shook the angrier Cubby grew. He tried to scramble up, but the little branches broke and the little tree bent and he just couldn’t get up. Finally Cubby was forced to give up. Then he had & happy idea. He would go oft a little way #nd hide. He would walt for that stranger to come down. So Cubby shuffled away, and when he was sufe that the stranger could no longer see him he very softly stole around to one side and there he sat down ‘where he could watch the stranger but was quite sure he couldn’t be seen himself. He waMed and wait- od and waited. The stranger knew ‘when he was well off, He remained right where he was. He seemed quite satisfled to stay In the top of that little tree. Now, little Bears seldom have much patience. Cubby remained quiet for a remarkably long time for a little Bear. But at last his patience gave out. He just couldn’t keep still any longer. He was just getting ready to give up and go shuffling off when the stranger in the little trectop began to move. He crept out on a small branch and he let go with his tail. Cubby Bear saw his chance. Before you could wink an eye he was at the foot of that little tree and shaking it. This time he was successful. The stran- ger lost his hold. He flew out into the air and down he dropped to the ground with a thump. Cubby rushed over to where the stranger had fallen, expecting to #ee him scramble to his feet and run away. But the stranger lay right where he fell. Cubby stoyed and stared. The stranger lay on his side; his lips partly drawn ! back, showing his teeth; he didn't move so much us a toe; his eves , were closed.

A pink crepe evening frock has folds of self-material end just where th waist should be, A land- some evening gown, with all-over embroidery of white pearls and black beads, achieves a waitsline effect by graded beading BY JEAN PATOU Paris, Sept. 27 — One of the most important questions, where the tech- nicalities of fashions are concerned is the waistline, More than three years ago I pre- sented, in one of my collections, a model typifying a tendency which I anticipated in the waistline. In this wodel the waistline purposely was somewhat exaggerated; it was al- most normal and consequently caus- ed a great deal of surprise and com- ment. Today this very same model could be shown in my collection without attracting more, comment than any of the other dl"l‘lslfl This n itself is sufficient proof of the evolution of fashions in the spherc of the waistline, Gradual Transition This resumption of the norma! waistline is a slow process, how- ever. 1f a comparison is made be- tween my present collection and the fashions of three years ago, al- though one has a very definite im- pression of a higher waistline, it would be difficult to say cf any The question of changing the waistline was one fraught with muny diffigplties for the couturicr. Women offered a certain amount of resistence to the idea. Today it is practically an accomplished fact, but only because this chang: was effected through the seasons in an almost unconsciously prcg ressive way. Another reason s that a very great diversity of means was employed, so that littl by little women's eyes became 2 customed to a walstline which was not placed just somewhere above the knee, In any instance, a waistline can be a very elusive thing and can give the impression of being ly normal without its being so in reality. This illusion is sccured with the help of various effects. | The more usual pretext takes the form of some sort of belt. In c tain instances this belt is nothing | more than a superposition of ma- terfal, not very marked, but giv- ing the required effect. Again, when the top of a gown is mmm.d, cither by a work of incrustati stitchings, tucks or frills, various trimmings are made to fin- | ish a little lower than the so-called | normal waistline. Belt in Uneven Line Another effcct I have used in! my winter models is that of a belt placed at the same height as ou my summer models, but raged in the back or front. I Dbelieve, however, that the times has not yct come to launch dresses with a determined und normal waistline. My theory is that one cannot impose a brusque change on women, unless they can RATE COLORS When there are several children in the family, it pleases them to| cach have a scparate color for bath | towels, wash rags and hangers.
