LETTER FROM LESLIE PRESCOTT TO LESLIE PRESCOTT, CONTINUED You can see, dear little Marquise, that I had started something. I did not really intend to bring things to a showdown until I had consulted Jack, but having already brought it about, I was not going to back down. Miss Bradford had already begun to put on her wraps. I really felt sorry for Mrs. Prest ott. All at once she seemed to have grown shrunken and old- She iooked from Priscilla to me in consternation. I knew that she did not want to break with me on account of John, but I knew -she loved Priscilla. All at once I understood that here was a girl of the same temperament, the same mid-Victorian ideas, who had been very kind to her for years. It was perfectly natural that she should have wanted her to marry her son. It was not queer at all that she resented me, a stranger. Fortunately I remembered there was a train which, although it did not stop at our little town, stopped in the city where Karl was going and this train would take me back to Albany by noon the next day. The thing to do now, however, was to make Mrs. Prescott understand that I \Cas not leaving her in anger. So I turned to Miss Bradford and said. "I really think it is better for you to stay with Mother Prescott” — it was the first time I had called her "mother.” Although the word almost came to my lips inadvertently, because I felt a sudden pity for her loneliness, the lighting up of John's mother’s face showed me that my not doing so up until this time had really hurt her. I was not wholly In the right. Poor Karl, who had been standing in absolute and abject misery and embarrassment during all this conversation, now came forward. The same thought had come Into his mind. "Is—ls —” he began uncertainly. It was then that Mrs. Prescott’s breeding showed itself. For. whatever may be the old-fashioned ideas of the New Englander, they still have a certain kind of hospitality which must be shown upon all occasions. Mother Prescott came forward as though she had not seen Mr. Whitney before, with extended hand and smiling face. "My dear Mr. Whitney, you have made a very opportune call. I am sure my daughter Leslie was trying to think Just how she would be able to get to the next town In time to make that train. She seems determined to be In Albany tomorrow. "Os course I hate to have her leave, but in talking with her husband. my son this afternoon, It developed that he was very lonely without her. Under the circumstances I could not keep her, could I?” "Good Lord!” I said to myself. "If

that isn’t dismissal from the queen, I do not know what it Is.” All at once I was very proud of my mother-in-law. That she could really rise to the occasion and put herself in the right and me undeniably in the wrong so gracefully was something that I knew no modern woman could have done.

Girls of West Get Ahead of Their Eastern Sisters
BY MARION HALE (NEA Service Writer) By NEA Rert'ice NEW YORK, July 3.—Let the girls of the East look to their laurels! The latest report is that the girls of the far West exceeded all others In enterprise, pep and ability to get aheadAnna M. Clark has just spent ten months making a survey of the working women of the country and has found this to be true. “There’s none of the ‘What-shall-I-do-now?’ spirit on the part of the Western woman,” she says. “Long before girls finish school they determine definitely what they want to do with their lives and start training for it. “The W T estem girls don’t look upon society as a career: they want to do something for others as well as themselves. Earn Own Way “In a lumber camp I met a girl waiting on table to earn her way toward a doctor’s degree. She said she wanted to be a doctor because then she could do much more to help the Ignorant mothers of the country. "Another girl who had already received her degree from normal school was going to State university to study rural leadership and architecture. She wanted to be the wellprepared type of rural teacher that the Isolated community needs.” And so Miss Clark says she found girls everywhere, planning to teach, do social work or go Into professions with the definite ideal of serving the communities In which they live. She found that the Western girl
Experts Give Heed to What Women Should Wear in Idle Moments, WHAT women wear in their idle hours is being given more consideration now by fashion experts than ever before. The modern negligee has quite as much charm as the, ball gown, is made of the same materials and follows the mode quite -as closely, and the accessories are almost as important. However, the negligee is one garment that may be quite safely made at home and attempted by the amateur seamstress, since there is no question of fitting, and patterns may be followed without alteration. One of the simplest ways to achieve a very good looking lounging costume is to buy or make one of the fashionable costume slips with or without the pleated skirt. Pink, blue or orchid Is a good color foundation. Over this you need only a slipover of georgette crepe or chiffon, cut all in one piece with the kimono shoulderiine. Belt it at the waist with a loose 'ribbon girdle and a few French flowers and you are a charming picture. There is the possibility of many charming combinations of colored slips and fancy over-tunics. Another easy garment to make is the one of satin with angel sleeves of lace, dyed to match the satin, or natural, colored, or of gold or silver mesh. The printed materials of this season are most attractive for negligees and require practically no trimming. One of the most gorgeous models is a close fitting underslip of silver doth georgette crepe outlined at the neck and flowing sleeves with ostrich fringe. Braided satin ribbons are effectively used for girdles and so are ' silver and gold ribbons with flowers applied al?out every six inches.
Short Cape Proves Popular Garment
The short cape is fashionable for summer wear and is frequently such a model as the one sketched—straight over the shoulders to the elbows and edged with a very wide flounce that comes halfway between the knees and hips. Soft fur —gray or beige—is used for tho collar and bands of embroidery give the cape color. It may be made of crepe, satin or even of chiffon if it is tor evening wear.
is Interested In clubs, but not the literary or pleasure clubs. "I found agricultural clubs, par-ent-teachers’ associations and political groups becoming a power for good legislation,” she reports. "In one coast city of 10,000 inhabitants I found 102 flourishing, up-to-the-minute women's clubs. "Women in Washington and Oregon are much amused at the Eastern women who come out to tell them how to vote,” she concluded. “In Idaho women have voted for twenty years. In Washington sociology is taught in the public schools and everywhere there Is legislation for better schools and wider tunities“Go West is good advice for the woman who seeks a career.” Boy, 9, Missing Norman Wagoner, 9, of 2108 W. Morris St., was reported missing from home today. Patrolmen Whittset and McDaniels were told the boy wore a gray cap, blue overalls and blue shirt. He was barefooted.
To Have Perfect Skin Throughout the Summer
This is the season when she who would have a lily-white complexion should turn her thonghts to mercolized wax, the firm friend of the summer girl. Nothing so effectually overcomes the soiling effects of sun, wind, dust and dirt. The wax literally absorbs the scorched, discolored, withered or coarsened scarf skin, bringing forth a brand new skin, clear, soft and girlishly beautiful. It also unclogs the pores, removing blackheads and Increasing the skin’s breathing capacity. An ounce of mercolized wax, obtainable at any drug store, applied nightly like cold cream, and washed off mornings, will gradually Improve even the worst complexion. There's nothing better for tan, freckles, blotches.—Advertisement. a

Woman s Exposition to Be \Milestone of Progress’
By MARIAN HALE NEA Service Writer NETV YORK, July 3.—An ex position showing the activities of women in every State in the Union Is now being planned and engineered by a woman, Mrs. Elizabeth Sears. Her idea, however, Is something far broader than merely a commercial exhibition of the textiles, machinery, electrical appliances and artistic efforts of women, though these will all be represented. “My aim Is to make this a real milestone of progress," she explains. “A vision of what women can &ocompllsh in any field and what they can do to instil ideals of business Integrity In the younger generation. "Women had to go "out of home to go into business and the professions, but they took with them the spirit of their homes. They’ve humanized business and stamped their own achievements with their particular personalities. The world is going to be surprised at what they have done.. “When it was suggested to me that such an exhibition as we are planning had never been managed before by a woman, 1 thought it would be a very good time for a woman to break into it, and make this an allwoman enterprise. "We are accepting exhibitions and selling space only to firms run by women, or those with women executives in important positions. My end of the work Is pure pleasure because business women are the easiest people In the world to get along with. If every one were only as square as the business woman!” The exhibition will be held In New York at the Commodore Hotel, the week of Sept. 24. It Is under the auspices of the League of Business and Professional Women, with branches In all parts of the United States, as well as In Hawaii, China

Salads Are Refreshing and Depend Largely on Seasoning, By BERTHA E. SHAPLEIGH of Columbia University O remember a good dinner Is to remember a good "*■ salad,” someone has said. What are the qualities which go to the making of such a salad? One rule is that all the salad plapts or vegetables used must be crisp, fresh and cold. For a dinner salad a French dressing should be used, never a mayonnaise, unless it be a simple dinner and the salad is to be served as a separate course. A salad of cucumbers, tomatoes or plain lettuce is much more appetizing if servted with the meat or Ash. Probably all salads depend more on the seasonings than on anything else. Three measures of oil and one measure of vinegar or lemon Juice is a good proportion for the average taste. For seasonings, salt, pepper, mustard, paprika, sugar and a little onion, if the dressing is to be used on.vegetables or plain salad plants. A clove or bean of garlic left in the dressing* for several hours and removed before the dressing is served gives a flavor much to be desired. / . Fruit Suggestions For fruit salads omit the onion and mustard. Very good combinations of fruit and vegetables may be made, such as tomatoes and pineapple, peppers and grapefruit, celery and apple peaches and beets. Sandwiches are rapidly growing In favor for lunch or supper, and are made sufficiently hearty to serve as a main course. A meat sandwich and a vegetable salad, with a sweet or some fruit or dessert, make a satisfactory meal. Slices of cheese, cold chicken, ham or pork may be the thing. Then toast the sandwich quickly and serve on a plate with pickles, olives or a lettuce, tomato or cucumber salad.
Combinations Cold corned beef and cole-slaw, cold tongue and sliced tomatoes, cold pork and sliced onions, all make excellent sandwiches. The chopped cabbage may be mixed with mayonnaise or cooked dressing and the tomatoes dipped in French dressing, if one does not care for the mayonnaise. Instead of toasting the sandwich, occasionally fry it in butter, Just enough to give a golden brown color. For "hikers,” a sandwich made of cold baked beans, mashed and seasoned with ketchup or chill sauce, with sliced pickles, .between buttered brown bread slices. Is one which will “stand Jay."
