The sowing of crops, the building of houses, the marrying of wives and the birth of children wers definitely related to changes in the phases of the moon. In India s has long been be. lleved that cholera breaks out when there- is a change in the moon from the crescent to the full moon. In Cornwall it is believed that it is unhealthy for the child to be born in the dark interval between the old and the new moon. In Ireland and in various pe tions of Germany it is belleved that i a chiid is born at & time when the moon is on the increase the next child in the family will be a boy, but if on the decreass it will be a girl. This superstition is, of course, directly related to the idea of right hand and strength being assoclated with th: boy, left hand and weakness with 4he girl. Even the old scientific physician Galen thought that animals born during the full of the moon were strong. It is related that the philosopher Francis Bacon had an attack of apoplexy when the moon became eclipsed.

New York, May 28—The selection &t a wardrobe for summer traveling is & special kind of problem. Ceatumes must, first of all, not be susceptible to entire loss of looks if exposed to dampness, sun or dust. Secendly, they must be the type that shakes out well, rather than have to be pressed meticulously every time they are worn. Thirdly, their colers must be practical, even; though the popularity of light shades makes them inevitable. Greys and beiges are exceedingly go0d choices. Blues of medium tone and sometimes greens are excellent. New tweeds seem made with travel in mind. ‘8o are many of the crepe silks and the novelty fabrics that are somewhat crepey are excellent. The most important articles in a travel wardrobe are the suit or en- semble one sets out in and the top coat carried over the arm for steam- er wear and for every day wear if one s fortunate enough to visit some cold climes in hot weather. Fashions on Deck Next in importance come those little runabout things that have such hard deck wear on board boat, ich hard street wear shopping in Paris and such hird sightseeing wear in other places. Wool jeraeys, aspirics, novelly sheer crepey wools and heavy silks come into their own here. Last, and in the case of many young folks, most important come the party frocks. Flat crepe is an excellent choice, though a lace party frock is about the best one & girl can choose for her first. Figured chif- fons are less apt to look wispy than plain ones. Nets and tulles should be reserved for wear in places where maid service allows meticulous pressing. Probably the firs{ thing many wo- men buy when going abroad is a coit. I suggest a roomy tweed one, the type that has ample sleeves and a flare so that when one sits down there is no sense of crowding nor is there a chance that the front gaps unbecomingly. Ease is one of the firat considerations in any selection for traveling togs. A good choice is a herringhone twed in tan and brown with a fleck of fashionable orange in it. It is warm, comfortable, has life and light in its coloring thougn it is practical, to the extreme. This coat has smart touch in its facing and ecarf which uses a woolen jersey in orange, brown and cream. It has novelty cufts, and buttons shut, unlike the majority of copts which still swing unclosed. Hats in Limelight For wear with this & Rose Des- cat hat in beige felt with insets of colorful felt is a happy solution to the headgear problem. Hats, in- cidentally, will be one of the big- gest features of travel wardrobes, for women now want a diffcrent hat for every outfit. Typical of the sports suit one must include in any summer travel wardrobe is a hand-knitted sweat. er and pleated skirt one. The sweater uses beige, rose, tan and brown in its pattern and a finely pleated akirt is of brown wool crepe. A Reboux hat in heige tops this. The scarf is very modernis. tie in its pattern. For the one-piece silk frocks one should include a hat or two of the woven straws that do not dent. In choosing these hats, the main col- or schemes of the frocks should be considered. But a medium brown, with several bandings that can be changed to match the frock is & fine choice. It stands the sun well, is generally becoming. is the chic shade for sun-burn and alto- gether should prove satisfactery.
