TAPESTRY ROSE ACOENTS OLET

NEW YORK - One of America's most talented designers, Renee Montague, makes both daytime and evening accessories that are exqui- site in their simplicity and in their coloring or pattern for today's Ilothes.

81c suggests tapestry rose (a rather vivid rose tone taken from some of the French tapestries that have been on exhibit at the Metro- politan Museum) as accent for rnauvee and violets. and as smart with many other colors, such as navy, beige or French blue. She makes fine calf bags in several shapes and lines them with a chamlbray with satin stripes to match. The big shoulder bag. tne box bag in s. medium size and the satashel with short straps each have a. place in spring wardrobes.

mmboo is another of the sea- sonis featured colors; it is suggest- ed. as accent for greens, grays or navy. Sandalwood, done in suede. teams with tangerine. Many of these bee! an lined with the cham-

OITER SERVICE TO RAISE FUNDS

Trying to raise money for you: church circle, sorority or pet wom- an's club?

Then maybe here's an ides for you. ln an effort to raise moles‘ to help pay for its charity project a business girls‘ sorority in Austin. Texas, has gone into the baby-sit- ting business.

The business girls have announc- ed that they'll babysit at. local hourly rates. What they make Will be turned over to. the sororitys cui- rent charity endeavour.

Now that is a really business- like approach to the problem o.’ money-raising.

Most people are s little fed up with being asked to mail a cheque to this or that charity, or to buy s. chance ou an automobile for sweet charity's sake. and so on and on. They're a little weary of being asked to donate their money, time and effort to first one do-good group and then another.

But offering to scll s. service such as baby-sitting is something else again. That's not asking for anything. That is selling a needed service.

GET ‘EM EARLY

A cavity is never too small to fill, dental authorities say. Regular use of the tooth brush and avoid ance of eiocesslve use of sweets are sure-fire methods of preventing tooth decay.

Too thick s. batter will make‘ hot cakes or griddle cakes bulk and in- digestible. ‘Be careful. too, that your griddle is not too hot or too cold. The grease should be "bounc- ing" on the griddle.

When bad weather keeps the diildren indoors, a simple cook- ing lesson will help pass the time. Even s. very young child can frost graham crackers for instance.

When repairing, euamelling or varnishing glossy surfaces, the sur- faces should be lightly sancipapered to provide s "tooth" for the new coating to insure good adhesion

"I mind, Ellen" James remarked when we were breakfastlng this morning and the 'sun was cndcav~ oring to scatter the clouds and brighten the day —not that it was not light enough in a way. again covered from the edge of the "and to the height of the slopes in white! "I mind some Springs that cveu before this. the sheep would be out to Pasture for good. You can remember it yourself, Ellen? Don't you mind when that old gray ewe had the pair of early lambs and al. the rest were late?" It was n: trouble at. all to bring that April back to mlnd. For a few evenings the pasturing flock were brought back to the buildings on their ac- count. The sunset then would have dissolved into a bright streak above the woodlands across the road. near their pasture in the field across the creek. though still lighting the tips of the old pine and odd high spruces there. l I O There was no need of herding the ewes though there were certain paints to guard in case an inquisi- tive sheep chose to wander.

As sure as morning. came tne return trip. And I remembered the discomfort of an early angler when we surprised him at the bridge. James had called so loudly: "You'll have to stand aside there!" and I had hurried past so quickly to turn any straggler to the field, that he became quite bewildered and root- ed to the spot. But llic flock were anxious for their feeding grounds and came on bounding feet after James there. “Don't you remember Ellen?" I nodded. "And many a year" he continued "we'd be fenc- ing in April. Yes. many a year and once we had the wheat sowed though there was a snow storm later. after it was up." I I O

And still today's weather was not encouraging to farm folk ivith thoughts of field work though again we were able to take up the usual round. Washes deferred by yes- terday's storm were taken out of "soak" and spread by the house- wives and at the barns, the farm- ers took up their regular cleaning and other chorlng. Silver wings of the numbers of sea. gulls flashed above the windings of the rlvcr, playing spirited games of "Follow- the-beader" and stopping. queer sea birds that they are, to light on the old spruces down along the stream.

The Kentucky Legislature has Just passed a bill requiring l. three- day waiting period for marriage after applying for a. license. Thank Heaven for small favors. but what a pity the lawmakers didn't require a probationary period of three months. or even three weeks, in which an enamnured couple could think it over before they made the fatal

A three years’ contemplation of the hazards of

matrimony would be an insurance against divorce. because it would give the high contracting parties a chance to test their feelings and find out if whet they felt for each other was the grand passion. or just a passing fancy. To ascertain whether each others faults and foibles got upon their nerves. or they loved them just because they were John's or Lfaryls funny little ways. And. not least. to dis- cover whether John was a good provider pr a ne'er- do-well. and whether Mary was a crackerjaek cook or a. first aid to stomach ulcers. For, unfortunately, married or single, we all have to eat, and it is hard to stay romantic on an empty stomach. Naturally, taking as much time and thought to picking out a mate as you would give to selecting a new automobile would cut. clown the number of marriages, but the marriages that did make the grade would stick.

CHILD MARRIAGE EPIDEMIC

Of course, there will always be people whose hindsight is better than their foresight and who will need to be protected from their folly, but this need was never so great as now when an epidemic of child- nnarrlages is sweeping the country and bringing untold misery or.

' And it is these boys and girls who are mere kids themselves, whose tastes change with their growth, who have no knowledge of the re-

uuy of supporting a family. who need the protection of the law to keep them from wrecking their lives by making marriages that will be a millstonc around their necks as long as they live.

No other one thing has brought more suffering and sorrow to more people than these child-marriages. They have filled the d-lvorce courts with bitter and disillusioned husbands and wives whose love hnd turned to loathing when they grew up. They have blighted the lives of cofintlcss child-mothers, burdened with the cares of mother- hood while their feet still ached to dance. And, worst of all. they have tritfon specialists and public health wrecked the lives of their parents by bringing home bgbby-sox wives officials, definitely grg guy-g o; m“ or plpsquenk husbands for their fathers and mothers to support. f If there is anything that can bring more grief to a family than for children to wreck all of their parents‘ plans and hopes and ambitions s for than by making a child-marriage, it isn't in the books. And that ls why I say Heaven bless the Kentucky lawyers who are, at least, trying to compel people to look before they leap into marriage.
