SUITS ARE IN FOREGROUND OF STYLE PARADE FOR SPRING
Both Silk and Wool Favored BY HENRI BENDEL Written for NEA Service NEW YORK, Fob. 21.—The largo family of woolens furnishes Paris with the most popular material for out-of-door one-piece frocks and suits for spring. They form a complete community of their own and are fascinating in their variety. Leading the vogue are soft plain Jerseys, covert cloth, and the great variety of lightweight crepy materials such as worsted shantung and pique. * The spring of 1930 will be a season of suits. Even the mid-season collection offered them in both silk and wool—the former for southern playgrounds and the latter for colder climates. At the moment the charming woolens are dominating the sports mode, but the warmer days will find the silk prints extensively employed, especially the tie silks which do not soil or crush so quickly as the plain materials. Variety Marks Suits The most satisfactory thing about the return of suits is the enormous choice they offer in both cut and fabric. There are the swank little Eton jackets so charming when developed in the amusing silk prints. There are the short box coats of tweed-jersey or jersey-tweed. Theife are dress suits of broadcloth with long coats and the serviceable fulllength and three-quarter length coats found in so many of the suits developed in covert cloth. In fact, one may go “suited” from morning to night and still be entirely in the mode since there is a suit for every occasion, many of j them with blouses which accentuate: their charm. Certainly no well-balanced ward- I robe is complete without several j suits of varying character and ma- j terials. j
Covert Cloth Is Good One of the most satisfactory materials for the traveling suit is covert cloth. A charming example is illustrated in chocolate brown, featuring a tashicnable cape, and illustrating the possibilities of rich color combination. The lapels and cape are faced with mimosa yellow fiat silk crepe, the former ending in a graceful scarf in the back. The coat comes almost to the bottom of the skirt, and the blouse is of the same material as the facing of the cape. With it is worn a brown felt turban and brown kid oxfords. Youth is stressed in the development of the spring jerseys. Marc of them imitate the self-patterned cremes. Others present color combinations that gladden the eye. Os the latter, an excellent example is illustrated The creamcolored jersey is striped with raspberry and pale pink, furnishing a combination which makes one think of spring gardens. The effect is charming. The bands in the sleeveless blouse which circle the hips are repeated in the pleated skirt and in the triangular scarf. The same color scheme is found in the Shetland wool which forms a crocheted cover for tire straw hat, while sports oxfords of white buckskin with brown leather trims complete the charming ensemble. Affinity in Fabrics Woolens and silks for spring adhere to the same ideas and stress much the same range of colorings. They are quite frank in their imitation of each other in weaves and colors. Myers’ tweed family is the most famous and includes the effective tweed-jerseys and jerseytweeds which the French couturiers are using so extensively in the morning one-piece frocks. Another important member of the wool family is the series of wool georgettes which I find most effective in the creation of daytime duds for the out-of-doors.

I“\R. CALDWELL loved He studied the habits of his patients and tried to improve their ways of living. His observations over a long period of time convinced him many people were ruining their health by a careless choice of laxatives. Then he determined to write a prescription which would get at the cause of constipation and correct t quickly and safely. How successful his efforts were s best shown by the fact that the prescription he wrote back in 1885 has become the world's most popular laxative! He prescribed i mixture of herbs and other pure ngredients now known as Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, in j~ thousands of cases where bad oreath, coated tongue, gas, neadaches, biliousness, and Jack of appetite, or energy ■ y&’ed him ihak the bowels L

of men, women or children were sluggish. It proved successful in the most obstinate cases. So men liked it. Old folks liked it because it never gripes. Children liked its pleasant taste. And everybody is pleased with the gentle way it accomplishes its purpose. By 1888, the demand for this laxative was so great that the doctor permitted it to be bottled and sold by drugstores. Today you can obtain Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin from any drugstore in the world.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
Pick Friends Carelessly and Suffer • BY MARTHA LEE The greatest scourge of modern civilization as it is lived and taught in these United States today Is that it makes us too gregarious. It does not teach us how to be happy by ourselves. It does not show us the ways to contentment through occasional solitude. Asa result, when we are thrown absolutely upon our own resources for amusement during leisure hours, we eat our hearts out being lonely, instead of using the precious hours to the advantage they were meant to be used—betterment of ourselves through our own efforts. And after a few days or weeks or months of this, we revolt. If we have no friends, we “pick up” with people who never could be our friends under normal circumstances. This tendency works plenty of hardships on married couples who come to strange towns. But for young, unmarried boys and girls, the danger is multiplied ten-fold. Read Newspapers Undesirable characters always are waiting around for lonely folks. Pick up the newspapers any day, and you can read stories about girls who have grown friendly with strangers, with tragedy the result. Or men and women who have made friends with people they know nothing about, and have been robbed, cheated, fleeced and often disgraced. The letter I am printing below Is written on the heart of many young men and girls today, who are too impatient for adventure to use their heads and reason out that the danger isn’t worth all the loneliness in the world. Dear Miss Lee: * have been in this man's town for seven months, working, and I haven't made any friends excepting a few girls in my office, and a speaking acquaintance with some of the men. I am so lonely I could die. I haven’t had any dates or any fun. All the other girls I pass on Ihe street at night, goin# home from work, are rushing home to dress for their dates. They have friends and good times. The girls at the office have bov friends. But they never Invite me to go out on their parties or ask me to have dates with some of their friends. 1 can’t understand what is the matter with me. I am nice enough looking and I have a pleasant, personality. There Is a man. older than myself, who rides the same car I do every morning and night. He has watched me. and because we see each other so often, we pass the time of day. He is the only person who has paid any attention to me since I came here. X think he will ask me for a date. If X encourage him the least bit. He seems quite nice. Just from outward appearances. I am 20 years old. Do you think it would be all right, under the circumstances, to go to a show with him some time? Lonely . No, I don’t think It would be all right. I think it would be foolhardy. The man may be o. k., but nine chances to one, he isn’t.
Results Cheapening Look to your laurels, Lonely. You say you have been here seven months. You haven’t made any friends, you are nice looking and have a pleasing personality. Then what is it? Why not spend your lonely hours improving yourself, so that people will want to include you in their parties and be friends with you? I do not mean to be harsh. I know girls are stingy about their boy friends. I know they are cagey about letting anew girl step in the circle. But there are so many things you could do, valuable things, with this spare time you are having for these few short months. There are girls’ organizations in town where the members are diversified enough that in some branch of the organization you would find girls to your liking. There are safe, worthwhile friends to be made, if you would go to your church or Sunday school and find them. No friendship that can be picked up as easily as this street car man, could be worthwhile. That is a cheap way of easing the loneliness, and the results would be just as cheapening.

PARIS, Feb. 21. jpUR trimming for winter A is for usefulness as well as decoration, whereas fur trimming for summer is for decoration only. Therefore summer fur trimming has to be handled with an eye to both effectiveness by way of good trimming and coolness by way of wear. Likewise, and what is more important, it has not only to BE cool, but give an appearance of coolness to the eye. There’s a nice juicy problem for you! aan \ WHITE evening dress worn i jL with a short green wrap, veryvivid—and shoes of the same green! And it wasn’t BAD, either. S’pos'n

the lovely lady wanted to wear a white wrap with this same dress and shoes, and long gloves, which matched the shoes —would we let her? You just bet we would! B B B The Couturiers OUR favorite French shoes are made by Pinet. And, as you should know by this time, if you are an ardent Dah-ray fan, it is pronounced “pee-nay” with neither syllable accented more than the other. u b n PETITE ADORABLE’S new spring outfit is just the cleverest thing you ever saw—if I have to say so myself, who designed it! But you see I DID spend really a lot of time figuring it out, because being so awfully busy these days, it's been somewhat disconcerting to see the way she grew out of her clothes seemingly overnight. This is a complete outfit, which is going to cover every occasion she could possibly encounter in her school life during the spring and summer, and then it’s going to be used next year as well—taking advantage of the ingenious ideas I have figured out for letting it down, up and out. B B B If you have a little girl in your family, I hope you will send a two-cent stamp to the Dare Department of The Times for the illustrated leaflet, which will tell YOU just how to make this ensemble for her, because I know that you are going to be as pleased with it as I am.
