There are possibilities for the merchandising of this reversible jacket as a separate item as well, to accompany the many sleeveless white frocks which will probably be the backbone of every resort wardrobe. They would naturally be obtainable in linen or cotton as well as silk or jersey. A novelty worsted with an extremely open mesh, giving a delicate, lacy appearance, is a fabric which is being given prominence for spring, both in jumpers, two-piece costumes and also in tuck-in blouses with wool enUsually the jumpers are accompanied by short, separate scarfs of the fabric. One manufacturer, who is showing an imported version of this fabric, chiefly in white, employs it in twopiece costumes which combine a pleated flat crepe skirt with a jumper of the worsted which is finished with a vestee and collar, oh simply a turnover cailor of the silk. This costume may be had in several colors. White blouses of the fabric, with matching scarfs, are shown with ensembles of flannel or lightweight wtolen in white and pastels. Thjs lacy appearance is coming to the fore in other knitwear, many of i the newer sweaters featuring a lace- j like design. Ony importer is giving i prominence to a collection of sweaters in lace-lisle. A striking innovation in linens is, knitted linen, which has the same delicate lacy quality. The meeting pf the Tri Kappa sorority has been changed from Tuesday to Wednesday, and will meet with Miss Madge Hite, at eight o'clock. W. 0. M. L.

French Shepherds Use Stilts to Advantage Walking <ui Mil's is n fnd that does ; not die with the ug-s. On the tomh J of one of the oldest Pharaohs Is a i crude bns-rellef depicting a court procession. The procession Is led by a 1 trumpeter who is perched on high i rtllts. Every nation. In fact, has had Its ' expert stilt walkers. In China. anJ I Japan the fad Is popular with youths, ; some ot whom are so adept in this ■ mode of walking that they require no , supports or uprights to steady them. I In southern France stilts are more than suds. There they are used almost continuously by the shepherds, who have to keep watch over large flocks of sheep as well as to pass through bogs. The stilts are usually from six to eight feet high nnd are | strapped tightly to the knees. Both men and women In that part of the country nre expert stilt walkers. In their hands they hold a long stick or cane as a support So accustomed nre these people to the stilts thnt shepherdesses have been known to knit socks while walking on them. A frequent pastime of these people are stlit races, and not a holiday | passes without a stilt contest of Some : sort. One contest recently was won ■ ,hy a hoy and a girl, each fourteen ] years old. The third to come in was a shepherd, whose age was about ' 'seventy. Splendid Fossil of Ancient Sea Terror The fossiled skeleton of a teleosaurus, a terror of the seas of the Jurassic period, 150,<XX),000 years ago. is on exhibition at the Field Museum of Natural History, Chicago. The creature, a sea crocodile about ten feet long, comes from Wurttemberg. Germany, and was excavated near there from land which was a sea hot-1 tom in prehistoric times, when that j part of Europe w-as covered by water. | The fossil is unusual in that almost every detail of the skeletal structure of the animal is intact and sharply defined in the specimen. Rows of ( .sharp-pointed, vicious-looking teeth In : the jaws indicate that the animal prob- j ably was carnivorous, and that It un- j doubtedly preyed upon lesser crea- ) tnres of the sea. The crocodile was i protected by strong plates along its hack, which acted as armor. The j hones of these plates are preserved in the fossil. The skull, the short front legs and the longer hind ones and the vertebrae are virtually complete. . —" —— Good and Bad Hawks The biological survey of the United States Department x>f Agriculture points out that there are a number of different species of hawks, nnd the food habits of all are not the same. Some prey almost entirely upon small 1 mammals, such as mice, ground squirrels and rabbits, whereas the food of others consists chiefly of birds. The bird eaters should be killed at ' every opportunity, according to the survey, but it Is equally important that the others be spared, for they do a great deal of good in destroying small animal pests of the farmer. The bird-eating hawks Include the Cooper hawk and the sharp-shinned hawk and these species prefer to capture their prey by swift, fierce darts from the concealment of thick foliage. ■ ✓ Big Family The stork had brought a new baby girl to the family and father came smiling to the breakfast table to announce to the four assembled small ones, Sam, Sally, Lois and David, that there was a tiny new sister upstairs. Four small, grave faces turned to him, as he said cheerfully: “Isn't it igreat to have five children? A big ,family is so much more fun than a small one. I don’t believe there is a happier family anywhere than ours.” ■ "There's the orphans’ home,” said five-year-old Lois thoughtfully. Dance to Health Modern science is getting back to some of the same beliefs that held sway in primitive society. Particularly is this true in the matter of physical and montai health, for science .now subscribes to the ancient theory that physical exercise leads to mental as well as physical health. The lively Italian folk dance, called the Tarantella, dates from this period and derives its name from the fact that the icure for spider bites was generally beHieved to be a wild dance unto ex- ’ haustiou. —James G. Dunton in the Dance Magazine. Poor Man "A thorough gentleman, the most ipolite man I ever met.” • “Yes, Algernon. Jenkins was that.” j < “But he died unhappy, very unhappy" "So, Algernon, so?” ; “Yes. he was afraid his relatives 'would think his last gasp for breath (was a hiccup and he wouldn’t be able ;to excuse himself.” t Gotham’s Own ' “I have buffeted about with the peo ' pie of Arabia. I have fought hordes of Turks, and battled almost an armj of Armenians. I have worked next to sweating South Americans, toiled be | side Greeks, Swedes, Chinamen and men from deepest Africa. Yes. I know , every race of man.” “Oh, so you’re from New York.”

"Bandit gits ten years, or, er or I mean SIO,OOO dollars. I can't see like I used to," said Uncle Ez Pash, today, as he lo >ked o’er his newspaper. Sometimes martiage is such a flop that a feller’ll find hlmsftlf tryln' f pal allmoney an' engagement ring installments out o’ the same week’s wages.
