With Any Old Frock and Deauville Scarf You Will Be Distinctive as Well as in Tip-Top Style
By MARIAN HALE NEA Writer. THE most distinctive novelty of this season—of a good many seasons, in sact —is the colorful Deauville scarf. Deauville, as you doubtless know, is the great French summer resort —one of the gayest, one of the most expensive, one of the most fashionable in Europe. It was at Deauville, you may remember, that King Alfonso of Spain spent a lot of time last season dancing with any number of pretty girls, giving an expensive brooch to each of those he favored thus—making himself so popular, indeed, that this year his advisers said they’d rather he stayed at home —his cutting around had attracted a little too much attention. For Sports Wear Anyway, the Deauville scarf first appeared at this famed resort —originally intended for sports wear. But it was too much of a success to be limited, in its activities, to any' time, place or style of frock, and today it’s featured in connection with evening gowns, afternoon attire, house dresses and even kimonos. It’s added pep and dash to the dull costumes women had accepted for business wear and it’s relieved the deadly monotony of the collarless neckline. Naturally there are hound to be variations, so it isn’t surprising to find ribbon being used decoratively in a manner which the scarf plainly inspired. Save Your Frock The photographs will give you suggestions that may enable you to save the old frock you’d intended to discard, evolving a snappy Easter costume from it instead, by the purchase of a few yards of ribbon and the expenditure of a little ingenuity. To make the ribbon fichu (lower right) you need three yards of taffeta ribbon, preferably figured, doubled over with a loop knot in the very center and then the doubled pieces stitched together for half a yard, then knotted again. One end is drawn through the loop knot and the other's used to make the bow or knot that ties it. At the upper left is shown an adjustable drapery that may be used about the neck or hips, as you

, and she had to work for a If vinr About a i month ago she became very ill and had no ! place to go. I ashed my parents whether she could stay at our home and let me pay i the expenses. They would not. I could j see they did not like her. So f sent her to her uncle, in the southern part of the State, where she got married two weeks ago. I had a quarrel with my parents and have a notion to leave home. I cannot blame her. for she had no place to stay and she was not able to work. I suppose she I was disgusted with me for listening to my i parents and thought the only way out was ito get married. Am I to blame, or her, or ,my parents': What would you do? Q. L. It is an unfortunate situation. T lain not sure any one is to blame. You | were right to listen to your parents, ! and they thought they were acting i for your own good. And the girl j probably was desperate. However, she was not fair to you. Your parents were to blame, I bej lieve, in refusing to help the girl when | she was ill. Again, though, they were 1 thinking of you. Don’t leave home.

Once on, tho scarf may be worn as a square or it can be pulled around so that one point comes down in front, with both shoulders and the back adorned with the other points. The shoulder points may be knotted or only one point tied. The clever girl can make her own adjustments.

OT®y OF Emotions e&veaixd in Private. LetTepo copyright K - N.E A Service, Ino. LETTER FROM JOHN ALDEN PRESCOTT TO JOSEPH GRAVES HAMILTON. Joseph Graves Hamilton, Sharon, Pa. My Dear Mr. Hamilton— By the time you receive this letter Leslie probably will have told you that I have asked her to be my wife. As you know nothing of me, however, 1 thought it would be nothing less than honorable to tell you a little about the man to whom you are being ask to give your daughter. As you probably have guessed from my name, John Alden Prescott, my forbears were of Puritan stock. My father is dead and my mother has enough to keep her comfortably without any help from me.
My mother is especially proud of being a direct descendant of John Alden, but that of course means nothing to me; in fact, I have felt that all my life I have been somewhat circumscribed and confined because my mother expected me to live up to the more or less narrow precepts of my ancestors. I haven’t done it. I am just a modern young man who has gone through college with more or less es capades and honors —perhaps more escapades and less honors. , - However, I have not done anything that I am sure even you would consider unpardonable. Os course, I cannot expect to keep Leslie in the way in which she nowlives, but I am getting $4,000 a year with the Acme Advertising Company, and I have prospects of being raised another thousand shortly, and a good chance of becoming a member of the firm some day. Leslie tells me that she ir, sure she can live on a comparatively small salary and I think perhaps she would be willing to make some sacrifices for me; and I know anything that I shall give up will mean nothing to me beside the fact that I shall be privileged to call the sweetest woman in all the world my wife. If you think me not wholly unworthy It will give mo tho greatest joy; but I must also tell ymythat with or without your consent, I shall make Leslie Hamilton my wife, because 1 love her wih all my heart, and she has told me that she loves me. Respectfully yours, JOHN ALDEN PRESCOTT.

me about you, and from what I know about her, you are both extravagant young persons. You both have had money enough to gratify most of your wishes; you neither have had any great responsibilities. I never was the kind of man, however, that wanted to pick out my daugters’ husbands. I ran away with Leslie’s mother because the old man thought I was not good enough for her. I lived to see the day he came to me to borrow money. I may as well tell you that I never expect to have to ask the husband of either of my daughters for a similar favor. You tv.-o young people will have to live your own lives. You will have to support Leslie and she will have to learn to live on your salary. I like your frankness and your modesty.
