Canadian cotton mills are fea- turing wool-styled cotton fabrics which are expected to solve the problem of what to wear when spring is in one air. ‘Ilaese cottons are not only suitable for early spring wear, but are also being shown in gay colors for summer sport/s and spectator wear. The rough appearance, the ribbed ef- fect and the diagonal weaves. which are high fashion notes of showings of new spring materials are all in evidence in these wool styled cottons. Four of the ranges are of cotton woven which give the material a. bright speckled appearance, also in plain weaves of cotton and yilm in dia- gonal weave, and small checks. The oombina-tion of yarns gives these cottons a. decided woolly ap- pearance and tweed-like effect. For street wear, black, navy blue, wine, old gold and brown are the leading colors in the IabrYc dos- cribed while for summer wear blue, salmon plnk,_rcd, green. pink and white are the shades in_ vogue. Another distinctive wool- styied cotton featured exclusively in summer shades is a. ribbed mesh, which comes in can: blue, Spsinish orange, .grccn, yellow, pink, light blue, beige and white. For sports and spectator wear this new alliootton material with wide ribs and loose mesh is hailed as a leader. The mesh gives it coolness, the rib gives it roughness a"d the qualityof the material gives“ it

Dorothy Dix’ Letter Box

Does it Pay to be Good‘! Asks Bewildered Young Girl - Wife Who Lost Her Looks .While Her Husband Grew‘ More Handsome-Telling Truth Safer

Dear Miss Dix-Has the day passed when a girl is expected to be virtuous? It seems to me that it has. I never go out. with a boy but what he expects me to do things that no decent girl would do, and I

don't intend to drag myself down to the gutter for any man's selfish desires. You saidln one of -‘ your recent letters that the happiest people were those who lead clean lives.‘ 1 am not. happy bg- \ “"59 Every time I find a. boy that 1 like real well ' I am put. aside as soon as he finds out that I am straight, and he gets a. girl who is not so particular. I have been tempted many times to give in just because I hated to lose the boy. 1 have lost many boy friends Just because I wanted to hold up the standards that women are supposed to possess. Please answer this letter, not only for my sake, but . for many other young girls who have talked to me and who are also tempted as I am.

Answer:

Look at this matter straight, my child, and try to get the right sense of values. Do you think you are losing much when you lose a boy who rates you as he does the woman of the street, and who is willing to put you in their class for his own selfish pleasure? Do you see anything admirable in a boy who is so lost to all sense of decency that he has no respect for a woman's virtue and no reverence for a young girl's in- nocenoe?

Do you think that sort of man is worth having? would make a faithful and true husband? . Don't you think o. girl sells out for a pitiably small price who bar-tors her purity for a few dates, a few movie tickets, a few dinners and dances, and all these on the cheap side, as the Emgilsh say- If you are going to tread the primrose path, at least value yourself enough to "do it with a partner who can strew it with Jewels and limousines and Paris flnery, You can buy your own ice-cream sodas and pay your own street-car fares and still have the pleasure of your own self-respect and good name.

Believe ma, my dear, there is no other more oontem ‘lrlldlfl figure than the caddish modern youth who makes a girl pay for his attentions with her honor, and why any girl falls for such an unequal bargain passes com- prehension. For the boy doesn't pretend to be in love with her. He doesn't. offer to marry her. He doesn't present her with diamond rings and emerald bracelets. He doesn't even take her to expensive places oi amusement and feed her on champ nu and terrapin. Ho buys her a ham sandwich and takes her to n. IO-oent dance hall and the neighbor- hood cinema, and for that and the joy of looking at him he expects her to give her soul. ~ I think that when one of these poor little imitation understudies of Don Juan passes you up for some girl with lea brains and less principle than you have and who holds herself cheaper than you do yourself, you should thank God for your luck instead of bemoaning your fate.’ That sort of man brings a woman nothing but degradation and sickness and death.

Many girls like you, seeing that they do not have as many dates as the wild women, ask if it pays to be good. Sometimes it seems to them that while virtue may be its own reward, it is its only reward, and that that is small comfort to one whose feet itch to dance and who longs for laughter and light and music.

But. for all that it DOES PAY T0 BE GOOD. It pays first in self- rcspect, and that is the first necessity to happiness. You can get. along without the good opinion of other people, but to have any peace of mind you have got to stand well with yourself. You have to be able to look your own self in the face.

And no girl can do that if she has been false to her traditions and lowered her standards. No girl can do that who knows that she has slimed the white robes of her womanhood. No girl can do that who knows that she has become one of the fallen sisterhood.

Nearly all girls who go wrong take to drink and drugs in order to forget the thing they have become and to blot out memories that torture them. It pays a girl to be good if she want-s to have a happy married life. Not many men are willing to marry the weak women who have‘ sinned with them. Not many men are willing to marry a woman with a past and who has been the piaything of other men. And when one does forgive, he never forgets and never trusts her. The happy marriages are where the man has faith in his wffe’s good- ness as he has faith in God and when she has no bitter regrets in her heart and hides no shameful secrets from him. Oh, yes, it pays a girl to be good.

I I I I Dear Miss Dix-When my husband and I were married we were about on an averageyin appearance and handsome youngsters at that. Now that. we are middle-aged I have lost all of my good looks and he gets better-looking every year. Everywhere we go women say to me something about how good-looking he is, and it is-getting on my nerves and giving me an inferiority complex. I feel that. he deserves a. prettier wife, but he seielm satisfied and he isn't in the least vain and conceited. What to do? SYLVIA.

Do you think he

DOROTHY DIX.

Answer:

The only thing you can do is to meet the situation with philosophy and thank Heaven that your husband's good looks haven't turned hi5 hcnd and started him out on a career of philandering.

It is one of the cruel icsts of not ure that women, who need beauty so much more tharrmen do, lose it sooner than men and that as ihcy grow older they so often deteriorate in looks, while men frequently im- prove. Many a gawky, lanky boy with an Irish-potato face, turns into a handsome and distinguished-looking huddle-aged man. But time doesn't deal so kindly with a woman. It changes her from a ayiph to some- thing that, at its best, we speak of as being "well preserved."

And the cruelty of the thing is that so often the middle-aged woman
