SPRING MODES OFFER DRESSES FOR EVERY OCCASION

Lent Good Period for Most of Us BY MARTHA LEE In the religious world, today marks the beginning of a six weeks’ period of partial retirement from the material things of life. Those who profess certain faiths observe it rigidly. Others, although they do not go in for it too strenuously, use the Lenten season as a time to recondition themselves. There is no doubt as to the benefits of sane fasting. And abstinence has its good points, too. For fortysix weeks in the year we all go a pace that would kill many a good race horse. Our days are a quick succession of mad dashes from one place to another, with a hurried nap of seven or eight hours, sandwiched with difficulty in each twen-ty-four. Live for Amusement We eat all kinds of foods, at all hours of the day and night. We tax our nerves, our digestive systems. our dispositions and our health. We take in all the shows, all the dances, all the social events that possibly can be crammed in. In other words, we live with the world and for the fun and amusement the world affords. But did you ever stop to think how enjoyable a little change from the regular routine would be? How marvelous it would seem to go home from the office at night, with nothing in the world to do, but eat your dinner, loll about the house and read? What a relief it would be not to go dashing out, after a hurried meal, to catch up on the latest movie or play or social event? And principally, do you ever stop to think how loudly your own systems cry out for just such a protracted rest from all that? You know, thinking over the way we live nowadays, with hardly enough sleep and always too much excitement and nervous tension, it is a miracle there are not more divorces. We are so high strung from trying to know more and do more and be asked more places than .ne others fellows (to say nothing of trying to earn more) that, by the

time we have a few moments for a little quiet domesticity we are ready to snarl at the first person who dares speak to us. Rest Is Needed Our bodies, minds and soul reap incalculable good from a rest from the old routine. Ask any doctor and he will tell you a period of restriction once a year from all the things you have been doing will save you from an enforced permanent restriction later in life. You women who write in that your husbands are cross and irritable, that they quarrel over the slightest thing, that finally they become too disinterested even to quarrel, might take a few tips from the doctors of the soul and the doctors of the body, who agree on the value of a change in the diet of what we do and what we eat for a period each year. Even an automobile needs reconditioning a couple of times a year, if we are to receive the best possible service from it. Here are some of the rules that folks follow during Lent: No meat on Wednesday or Fridays, and only once a day on other days. Rules of Lent Frugal breakfasts and luncheons, with just one big meal a day. (This ought to interest the vast army of men and women who are trying to shrink their waistlines.) A minimum (if any) of movies, shows, social entertainments and the like. (Leaving more spare time than you’ve had for years, in which to read and rest and become reacquainted with friend husband, wife or children.) A total abstention from some special habit, such as smoking, eating candy, desserts and other ruinous sweets. Choose your own ticket on that one, only be sure and choose the thing that you like best that is the worst for you. Try it for a week, anyway, and just watch you change your outlook on life And do watch your disposition improve and your home life take on a new and rosier color. Bridge Party Held Members of the chorale section of the Indianapolis Matinee Musicale were entertained with a dinnerbridge party Monday night at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Wilson B. Parker, 5825 Guilford avenue. Club Members to Meet Members of the Danzarite Club will meet tonight at 8 at the Chamber of Commerce building.

When Your Cough Hangs On, Mix This at Home

The best cough remedy that money could buy, can easily be mixed at home. It saves money and gives you the most reliable, quick-acting medicine you ever used. The way it takes bold of stubborn coughs and chest colds, giving immediate relief, is astonishing. Any druggist can supply yon with 2 1/2 ounces of Pinex. Pour this into a pint bottle, and fill up with plain granulated sugar syrup or strained honey. It’s no trouble at all to mix, and when you once use it, you will never be without it. Keeps perfectly and tastes good—children really like it. It is surprising how quickly this loosens the germ-laden phlegm, and soothes and heals the inflamed membranes. At the same time, part of the medicine is absorbed into the blood, where it acts directly on the bronchial tubes, and helps the system throw off the whole trouble. Even those severe roughs which follow cold epidemics, are promptly ended. Pinex is a highly concentrated compound of genuine Norway Pine, containing the active agent of creosote. In a refined, palatable form. Nothing known in medicine is more helpful in rases of severe coughs, chest colds and bronchial troubles. Do not accept a substitute for Pinex. It is guaranteed to give prompt relief or money refunded.

Galaxy of Variations Is Shown BY ROSETTE NEA Service Writer PARIS, March 5.—The spring collections were attended this year with something akin to excitement. Never before the annals of “Haute Couture” had such interest been prevalent. This was not to be marveled at. The fashions presented last August were so revolutionary that they provoked endless discussion and every one was eager to see what the couturiers would offer for spring and summer wear. Never has the mode offered such variations as this season. There are dresses for every occasion that may present itself in the day of a modern active woman, whatever position or occupation. The business woman is being dressed as smartly as the woman of leisure, and there never was a greater scope for the expression of personality and individuality. Dresses Are Short Although most of the new morning dresses are of a tailored appearance, original touches can be applied to them that would be entirely out of place in a conventional sports model. For practical purposes, these dresses are frankly short, from six to seven inches below the knee, according to the new ruling. An interesting element in the realm of fashion is the dressy tailored suit. The ubiquitous “ensemble” had begun to pall on most women. Two women could look very much alike in an afternoon dress and coat, but the reappearance of the afternoon “tailleur” will allow the woman with individuality to express it to the very last degree. The woman who wears a simple tailored suit can not afford to be “nearly right" in the matter of accessories. Every single detail of hat, shoes, bag. gloves, stockings and blouse must be perfect, and the result is invariably incomparable “chic.” Stress Tailored Suit All the important collections stress the afternoon tailored suit this season, which means the return of the dressy blouse. Soft woolens, satin, taffetas seem to be the three fabrics favored for the coat and skirt, and georgette, chiffon and crepe satin for the blouse. Detachable capes of all lengths and shapes are another feature of the spring showings. These are shown with the informal morning dress as well as with the more formal afternoon and evening gowns and there are quite a number of cape sleeves to tweed traveling coats.

There is a great choice of fabrics offered for the spring styles. There are many tweed weaves in brown and white, black and white, red and brown and a. few greens. Tire Trirudics and the Triburs are interesting in that they are composed of three matching fabrics but in different weaves for ensembles comprising coat, suit and sweater. The lace wool mesh is used almost exclusively for sweater blouses this year and there are a number of new designs to select, from. Blouse Replaces Sweater The sweater has been replaced by the sweater blouse, worn under the skirt, and for the most part devoid of sleeves. English fabrics and suiting are fashionable for the strict tailored suit, usually in a plain color. As a matter of fact they have almost usurped the position occupied by tweeds. Washing silks are used almost exclusively in tennis and beach dresses as well as a few exclusive cotton prints. Shantung fashions a great number of summer dresses and suits in the lightweight and heavyweight qualities. So far as the question as to what colors wil be fashionable this spring is to be answered, the dominant note is certainly black. In most models it is combined with white or another color such as yellow. rose or green. Dark blue has come in again, but is not seen so much as black.

Contrary to popular belief, the dry and normal skin belong in the same classification and require the same cleansing methods. The proper time to cleanse the skin is at, night—just before retiring.

and does no good. Spread this on the face as evenly as possible and do not manipulate. As soon as the cleansing cream has liquified and become an oil, remove it with a soft cloth or tissue. Then with hot water and a good soap, wash your lace well. Don’t be afraid to get some suds on it. You may object because you have been told differently, so let’s reason this point out. You undoubtedly bathe frequently and with good results. Remember, then, that you have the same kind of skin structure on the face as you have on the body—so it naturally follows, if you can bathe, using soap freely on your body, you can do identically the same thing with your face—and with just as satisfactory results. Next, rinse the face by dipping a towel in clear, hot, soft water and thoroughly remove all traces of soap. Rinse your face again with tepid, soft water and dry. Then apply a night cream sparingly, and leave this on overnight. This will serve to lubricate the skin, keeping it soft and smooth. (Copyright. 1930. by United Feature Syndicate. Inc.) V. E.

Interprets the MODE

PARIS, March 5. so often we hear the question asked by trying-to-be-clever people — is the modern woman slipping back into the mental confines that bound her mother and grandmother, the while she slips her figure back into corsets and curves, her limbs into skirts? To such a question the intelligent person can not but have a ready answer. The woman of 1930 is an evolution of the woman of the past, and in herself expresses the characteristics of many periods. And of any civilization that pleases her, the while she develops her modern characteristics, which have never belonged to any women of any time. The whole modern world as well as the collective life of the past lies before her. And she has every right to enjoy for the moment the whimsical capelets, odd sleeves, fancy gloves, high waist-lines, fans, furbelows,
