i N S5 smppoiminmi Love’s Awakening By Adele Bdadge and Katherine Are Puzzed as to the Causc of Mary’s Tense Excitement Marion’s appeal to me for permis- sion to drive with Ronald to sce the sunriss on the ocean brought to a decision a debate which had been going on in my mind ever since Mary had suggested the trip. “Shall 1 interferc?” 1 had asked | myself, Lknowing that I must not | waken L an, and that I stood in her pluce. Would she have assented to the plan if she had been the re- cipient of Marion’s appeal instead of me? There was one thing certain. She | would not question my decision, no matter what her own might have been, and both my heart and my brain urged me to give Se 1l plan. The drive down to the beach The llun Story summ Wnu Garrison while Ronald lingered only to ask me a pertinent question concerning method of getting one of ton cars out in the morning without disturbing the rest of the house. Charles Owen had gone up- stairs directly, the guests had de- parted, so only Mary was left with Katherine and me “Please don't call me young peo- ple, Auntie Madge,” Dicky's young niece said as she slipped her arm affectionately through mine. I feel old as th hilis tonight and 1 couldn’t sleep a wink if I went to Led now.

So I stiffened the that Lillian might prove my plan, and spoke cordially: “Of course yon may go, dear, bhut you must wear your heavy coat. Marion’s thanks and her promise to wrap up were drowned by Konald's exuberant expressions ot gratitude. He was like a small boy receiving a coveted toy, T thought indulgently as he cd my hands and began to thank me extrava- ntly. “I'll take lingering fear secretly disap- ever so good care of' her, Mrs. Graham,” he said, and 1 smiled indulgently at him as T im- agine women of all ages will do all his life, “I'm sure you will, Ronald,” I told him, “but all you young people must £0 to bed at once or you'll never be | able to awaken in the morning.” “I'm asleep now,” Carolyn de- clared, rubbing her brown eyes, ana #nother minute saw her, with Marlon, on their way to the room they previously had agreed to share, BUSTER BEAR 1S STUNG By Thornton W.

So instead traveling away for good, he gone a little distance, then turned around and d back His excuse to himselt that he had had such a good bed under a certain windfail that he wanted to go back there for another nap. It was two days after Thanksgiv- ing before Buster Bear became real| hungry again. During that time it| wasn't so hard to keep away from the pigpen on that little farm on the back side of the Great Moun-| tain. There was always the tempta- | tion to try for another pig, but un- |t til he became really hiMgry again | it was comparatively easy not 1o yield to that temptation. | It was, however, a.very different matter when there was no longer food in his stomach and when he was conscious cvery minute of the time that he was hungry.

When he finally went out of the kitchen h an exaggerated dancing step, Katherine and T looked at each oth- er with troubled faces. “That's child's near the breaking point with excitement,” she said. “T know it,” I returned, “and when the Brixtons go, I will try to find out what is troubling or pleas. ing her.

Children tentl carly in life to de- velop certain food prejudices, in- cluding among other things, liver, spinach, cabbage and carrots as foods which they avoid for one rea- son or another. It iy unfortunate perhaps that nature has plaged in some of the least tasty food sub- stances the important vitamin fuc- | tors that are nccessary for proper growth, » Eat or Not to Eat Doctor Royster suggests that as xoon as the infant has reached the age when it can begin to take semi- solid and solid food, the food should be placed before it and the child left to eat the food or not as it deter- mines for itself. | If the child refuses to cat, he should be allowed to leave the table at the end of the meal, but should not be fed again until the next regu- lar feeding time no matter how hungry it becomes. If this manner of handling the child is persisted in, it will soon learn to eat the things placed before it.

After such a protracted absence it al- most looked like something new! It is interesting also to note that since then it h never been completely left aside. It has be. come a theme to work on just like apron effects in afternoon gowns and panels in evening gowns. The bolero, in fact, is now classed in the category of “flaring move- menta” that have characterized the fashions of the last scason. Bolero Only & Theme In my coliection you will find that the bolero effect is used quite unostentatiously, as all other ideas devoid of the attiaction of soms thing really new. Everyone re- members how overcome the bolere idea was when it came in again. It was seen at every time and on practically every type of frock, without the least attempt at dis- crimination. Now {t has resumed itsa proper sphere and remains what it really econstitutes — a charming theme, susceptible of beine diversely interpretated. There are quite & number of bolergs or bolero effects in my present- collection, On.some frocks they affect & cape movement at the back, On.others the bolero is placed on the bias and one side of the bodice only in order to re- lieve the severity of the back. Despite all these new interpre- tations, used In most instances to lend a more supple line to a gown, @ bolero could never constitute in itsélf the only original note of a model. One can safely say that there are no more bolero dresses but that there are dresses with bolero effects. By this ] mean that supposing these were remove ed, the dress would still look like a model. I think you will find too, thau in afternoon dresses the bolerv figures more boldly and assumes a greater importance than in eve- ning gowns. A bolero effect will often pass unnoticed on an eve- ning dress, it is only at a second glance that you notice it there at all. There is & reason for this and it is put there 1o dissimulate the waistline without deterring from its suppleness and ease, the pass- words to this season’s fashions. Illustrative of the decorative value of the bolero, as a theme to be used in conjunction with others in a model, are two gowns in my collection. Bolero Gives Grace A gich black panne velvet has an elegantly simple frout view, with its bodice gracefully bloused above a swathed girdle and the fullness of its circular skirt con- centrated in the front. The back view is a chic version of the bolero used in conjunction with a gracefully draped rear panel that swings to much greater length than the front. The holero ic wplit to reverse the V-line of the decolletage, The other model has the dem!- bolere. This is a Patou blue zoft satin frock verv intricately cut, with a godet effect in the back that gives extreme grace. The demi-holero takes an up- ward curve at the same angle that the godet curves down and the | under-the-arm portion of the | frock follows a parallel line te both.
