PLATYING SAFE By Thomton G Burgess Anxiety, you'll always find, 1s present in a mother's mind. —O0ld Mother Nature Safety means everlasting watch- fulness. No one knows this better than' do Dipper the Grebe and Mrs. Grebe. It is not often either one of them is surprised by an enemy. ‘Those bright eyes of theirs are al- ways watching out. No matter how | quiet ‘and peaceful it may be, they are always on guard. 8o it was that as the Grebe fam- ily swam about the Smiling Pool— Dipper, Mrs. Grebe and the six lit- tle Grebes—the bright eyes of the parents were keeping censtant watch in every direction. Despite the fact that everything was peaceful, Mrs. Grebe was anxious. Mothers are al- ‘ways anxious. The babies were not anxious, however. They had not yet learned the real meaning of danger. They had yet to learn the real meaning of the word fright. So they played about on the water and Mother Grebe kept a watchful eye| ued Peter. “Come on in; the water's fine!" retorted Dipper. A sudden thought struck Peter. “Can you walk 2" Dipper chuckled. *I don't suppose you would call it walking." said he. “I can get aiong after a fashion for a little way, but not for far, and it is more running than walking. Toe are almost helpless on land, so we never come on land, unless it s to sit on the very edge of the water." “I don’t see why you should be so {helpless. I don't see why you should be any more helpless than the Ducks,” said Peter. Dipper rolled half over on his back and held up a queer looking foot. It wasn't webbed like the foot of a Duck, but there were queer flaps or scallops of skin between the toes, “Look at that foot!" said Dip- per. “Look at that leg! Have you ever seen a shorter one?” Peter acknovledged that he never had. ow do you expect any one to walik with legs as short as mine and way back at the very end of wmy tody?

In other portions of Africa it is thought that you can make an enemy suffer a severe headache by burning some of his hair along with his fool. On the island of Luang, burning of the hair or of the finger nails with the proper charms may caiite the hands to swell. In other islands of the South Scas some of the man's saliva along with his hair is wrapped up in a red tloth and sunk in a cer- tain grotto while charms are re. cited. This causes the evil spirit to come out of the grotto and at- | tack the person from whom the saliva and the hair were taken. It has already been mentioned in this series that some people be- lieve that & perton will lose his strength when his hair is cut; that legend goes back to Samson and Delilah. The vestal virgins of an- cient Grecce had all of the har cut from their heads and wore a special veil thereafter, and simi- lar ideas are followed in some modern churches. The hair is also associated with some of the constriction cures in which a hair taken from the body i3 tied around a pimple, wart,’ mole or stye that it is desired to NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, WEDNESDAY, MAY 29, 1009 ’M' » Mid-Season Modes Must Match The Sky! . Paris, May 29. ~llld~lemn collec- tions are usually considered of min- or importance compared to the spring or autumn showings.” They may be amaller and less significant so far as actual fashions are con- cerned, but this by no means implies that they have required less study than the othera On the contrary. The greatest difficulty that be- sets the couturier when. preparing his mid-season collection is hat most of his models are created on the basis of a mixed atmosphere. They have to contend with irregu- larity in the form of weather and light — grey days and often days of quite brilliant sunlight. It fol- lows, therefore, that any model created " for such undependaole times of the year as mid-summer or mid-winter must necessarily be the subject of careful considera- tion. They must never, eéven un- der the most diverse of weather conditions, look out of place! It's a Special Problem Mid-season clothes - for this very reason have to be apeclally combined and cut, form, color and texture must be very wisely sel- ected. Hence thd tremendous dif- ficulty facing the couturier of im- parting to them a definite person- ality. It is in these small collections that you will find the most diverse fabrics—in-between materials, I might call them. In this category, T believe that “‘woolflower, terial I launched last y typical example of fabric. There _are, too, several varieties of flat silk crepes emi- nently suited to this betwixt-and- between time which I use quite freely. Take a coat made of this heavy, rather thick silk. It has sufficient body to hang well and at the same !time it ensurse sufficient comfort to meet any change in temperature at that time of the year. A wool- en material might be a shade too warm for comfort, even on a rela- tively chilly mid-summer day. The heavy silk wrap has ‘the added ad- vantage of protection combined with a good fit. Neutral Shades Desirable Color is another very tricky point to decide upon. Very light shades ' would strike the wrong note. Dark, wintry shades would look sad in the sun. Neutral shades, therefore, are the best and these should e chosen rather darker than lighter, provided a touch of color is present in the en- semble. - I am all in faver of the com- bination now ruling so far as the combining of a mid-season ensem- ble is concerned. This is usual- ly composed of a light dress worn under a dark coat, the lining be- ing of the same material as the dress. This is' I think, a very becoming and happy combination, one that always look right. CROCKED COLORS If wearing a hand-locked frock or any dress whose color is bright be sure to wear shields as mamy of the delicate mnew fabrics are Zone in paints and crock from per- piration. Some of them even wash successfully but run under the arms when shields are omitted. FLAPPER_EAM SAYS: An ensemble from Jean Patou's mid-season collection which he picks as ideal for summer travel is of plain navy blue crepe Alhambra with touches of light navy crepe Alhambra polka dotted in yellow and white. The frock is belted high, with a fitted hipline and skirt fullness introduced in pleats below the hips. T scart collar of the dotted sifi ties in a smart bow. The coat has a feminine cut, with sleeves fitted into cuffs and the collar faced with the print. The coat, likewise, is lined with the print, and a neat purse, with a metal half- circle for its handle, is made of the polka dotted silk also. Love’s Awakening The Hurt Shry Studlut Wo-n By Adele Garrison Madge Almost Brezks as the ‘time Approaches When sShe Must Leave Junior at the Farrfhouse There was a kindly comprehension in Lillian's eyes which belied her quick reproof of my tears. Both heartened me, and I caught at her hand, conquering the weakness which her mention of my small son had given me. “I shall take your prescription immediately,” I said forcing a smile. “And — I shan't play the baby again.” “At-a-girl!” she commented with a grin. “Not that you haven’t carn- ed the right to, if anybody ever did, but—it won't do, at this stage of the game. When we get this business safely over with, I think I'll lie down beside you and we'll weep into our pillows for a week or two. Will you join me?" Her nonsense brought the laugh upon which I knew she had counted. and I went away from her, cheered as always by her indomitable spirit. 1 needed comfort for the next few expect.
