POLKA DOTS IN WIDE VARIETY WIN FAVOR OF SMART SET.

New Styles Good Every Hoar of Day BT HENRI BENDEL Written for VEA Service NEW YORK. May 16.—Women gifted with a sartorial sixth sense put their stamp of approval on that costume that has both dot and dash. There Is such wide range now in fabrics that sign on the dotted line of chic that one may find apparel for all hours of the day sponsoring the?e polka dots. Opts range from the pin-point to disks big as a silver dollar, or even large- *n some of the chiffons. Some of i. .*m are all of a size in a dress, others of different sizes form showers of dots in all-over design. Still others form a stripe of dots. The newest dot this spring is the large polka dotted chiffon, excellent for dinner wear and evening gowns. Patou’s pink on black and black on pink are prime favorites. Given Varied Treatment. Probably no single motif of design ever inspired such varied treatment as the polka dot. While it is clearly defined in most prints, others use a dotted background, with a figure in the foreground. Others have alternating colored dots in pastel colors against dark backgrounds. These blended colors usually come in the chiffons and other evening prints, with daytime things quite obvious in their dots, with black and white and navy blue and white and either black or blue with pink quite the favorites. Augustabemard beautifully illustrates the new polka dot concept in the evening gown sketched. The material is chiffon. The background is that soft new pastel shade known as opaline rose. Like Fading Sunset It reminds one of the last glow of a fading sunset —that soft pink flush seen nowhere else. Scattered over it is the polka dot theme in disks of pale blue which overlap in many places. They look a good deal like soft bubbles and are a charming illustration of the possibilities of the polka dot theme for evening wear. The slim silhouette of this frock is very simple, which but adds to its charm. It has no trimming except the shoulder flowers which pick up the colors of the material. From a deep printed yoke which circles the hips, the skirt cascades in points which swish about the feet. The whole idea epitomizes a summer evening. For summer travel the polka dot furnishes a smart theme. Good for Travel Martial and Armand are responsible for one of the most successful suits for summer travel I have imported this season. The material is a light weight jersey in red and beige, with a small polka dot theme. The frock is In one-piece with a printed skirt yoke, a round collar 1 of white pique and a matching tie. The fullness of the skirt is achieved with trucked gores. The smart little coat is lined with red silk matching in color the red in the jersey and the belt worn at the normal waistline of the frock. A charming bow-knot in the black of the coat somewhat resembles a pointed yoke and is extremely smart. With it is worn a rough straw hat created by Agnes.

Family Menus

BY SISTER MARY NBA Service Writer There are certain foods which are admirably suited for use in their natural state. Many vegetables, most of the fruits and nuts are palatable and are generally preferred uncooked. The so-called “starchy” require cooking to make them easily digested, but there’s a wide variety of other vegetables that are as appetizing raw as cooked. There are many points in favor of the eating of raw foods whenever it’s at all possible. Heat has a tendency to destroy vitamin C, that substance so effective in preventing scurvy and so necessary for health and growth. Salts Lost in Cooking Valuable mineral salts are lost in the water in which vegetables are cooked. The crispness of raw foods helps to develop the teeth. It’s a decided saving in time and effort to serve ftods uncooked whenever possible. Vitamin C is not stored -in the body, so daily supplies are needed. Raw fruits and vegetables give this vitamin to their fullest extent, for none is lost in cooking. Although the raw fruits and vegetables have little value as a source of energy, they contain certain mineral salts which are effective in the processes of elimination. Their bulk adds another important element to the diet. Nuts are a nutritious food supplying some fuel value and when added to a fruit or vegetable salad do much to increase its nutritive value. Make Good Salads Grated or finely chopped raw Vegetables make ewellent salads and sandwiches for children. Even quite small children may have grated vegetables between thin slices of bread and butter and as they grow older they should have them in salads as well. New, tender vegetables that have not matured and developed hard, woody fibers should be chosen. Infinite care is necessary in preparing foods that are to be served v au naturel.” Thorough washing to insure perfect cleanliness is imperative. Careful trimming and crisping to make them attractive and appetizing adds to their value. Some fruits and vegetables are covered with an inedible skin which protects the pulp beneath. Others are covered with a very thin skin that should be eaten if scrubbed and washed until perfectly clean. Alumnae Are Guests Indianapolis alumnae of Phi Omega PI will be entertained Saturday at the home of Miss Christine Dietrich, GreeaoasUe, with dinner and bridge.

FASHION GOES DOTTY ON ALL COSTUMES

Vergil Is Topic of Speech by Miss Welling Miss Corinne-Welling, professor 6f English at Butler university, spoke at Teachers’ college assembly on Thursday on “Vergil as an Author.” Miss Welling gave a brief account of the poet’s life, telling of Emperor Augustus’ encouragement to Vergil, “to write an epic, to do for Rome what Homer did for Greece,” and narrated some of the striking episodes from the “Aeneid.” In the character of Aenas, Vergil was picturing the ideal Roman,” she said. “He was showing a man not to be swayed by passion; wise, prudent, with vision, and who, even though old, was able to carry out great projects. Perhaps his here was presented as an example of Augustus, perhaps he was crying out about himself.” Miss Stella Giles, principal of the Glen Park school at Gary, will address the students at assembly Monday.

PARIS, May 16. THOUGHT you’d sort of like to know what’s new in traveling cases for the smart woman, specially now that buds and trees and things are being warmed into blossoming, and week-end trips are likely to take you by storm, as it were. So what did I do but go right out and ruin the bank balance by buying one, not ’cause I needed it, but just so I could write about it for you! It opens on the side and not at the top the way most well-behaved bags used to do; and as this opening is in the exact middle of the side, each section bends back and stands up straight when the bag is resting flat on a table or chair or floor. Then there is a tray that has hinges in the middle, making two sections, which fits exactly across the inside, covering it all. This tray holds all the little things, you know, those little things that count —cosmetics and pins and hairbrushes and scissors. There are two handles that fold in over the tray when the bag is closed. But when you want to fill the whole bag with lots of clothes and shoes that are bulky, you lift the tray out and carry by the two handles just as though it were a matching square bag in a travel ensemble! And I don’t know what YOU think, but as far as I’M concerned, calfskin for bag and lining is the best looking, the most durable and the smartest leather for a week-end case. And navy blue, mulberry or bottle gieen are the favorite shades for the fair sex. tt tt a '"T'HERE are some figures that can’t be improved upon! Venus
