America nerds more than aiylhlajr el?e a new conception or the reTira) of the old conception of the sound and wholesome things of life. America need rconsecration to the facally fireside more of the crackling backlog a ud w-m of the three-room flat with electric radio heater and ln-a-diKir bin. writps Kric O. Hopwoad In World's Work. America needa new yardsticks to measure worth; more ober progress und less paprika; aoort contemplation, and less cylinders under the hood; more bread and milk and W mushrooms under glass; more of Mother Nature's pink on the cheeks and less of a box; more constancy for the old wife and less Infatuation for the third one from the end with the shepherd's crook ; more sweetness and simplicity and dignity and loving kindness and less of the haunting, hectic race -against time and money a race which, run to the goal, brings neither profit nor peace. A stranger in America cannot fall to notice among the people a peculiar grnclousness In their gift for friendship. It Is one of the decorations of life, so to peak, and the close observer does no take It to be more. To be it good friend Is n murk of sterling quality, but to be a particularly gracious friend Is to add to that no more than a rhannlng elegance. Nevertheless, this gracious warmth Is u rare thing, and nowhere Is it so notably or so surely to be found as in an American, says John Drinkwater in Collier's Weekly. And I do not think that it is fanciful to suggest that thi conns about in no small degree from th relation of Lincoln and his fellows to tl;e life of immediate posterity of wliieli 1 hav been sneaking. The new year will have to conform to tiorne very old rules whieh will eontinur been us they are? good rules. Hut that is no reason why the new year should put up with old mlnlakes and abusrs, says Dearborn Independent. At its very threshold we t'-d every element of prosperity pre . the need, the materials and ye: cause of the money conditions there is n slow-up. Either there ought to be enough money to carry the essential activities of the country or a curtailment of money's power to top things. There Is more wealth than money ; and as long as real wealth is compelled to wait on fictitious wealth which is measured in gold, troubles will continue. Here is a task for 1021. It i well to remember that there was little poetry or romance connected with the royafe of the Pilgrim Father, says Charleston News-Courier. They were men of dauntless faith but they saved themselves by work. Long afterward, when one of the descend ants of the early settlers of New Eng-! land was told that his son had been elected President of the United States hU comment was: "Well, boy and man he was ever a hard worker." The srospel of New England can be stated In a sentence: Do your work. Tbe city sanitarian undoubtedly means well In warning women against dangerous ways of dressing, but there Is hardly a doubt but that he could do more for the public health by devoting his time to some other form of hygienic endeavor,- fays Indianapolis Nw8. OJirls will be girls, even after they have been women a long time. Klectrifying the railroads will help. Digging canals will assist. Building good roads will aid. Commissioning nirplanes will tend to bring relief. And then when the public abstains from cluttering up the works foolishly with unworkable regulations there will be daylight ahead. Advocates of letter speech declare that much of our trouble is due to the use of the wrong word. There Is many a man with wildcat stock on his hands who wishes he had not said l es. Norwegian scientists claim that Greenland was once connected with Norway, but is moving westward at the rate of ten yards a year. It'a going to bump into something stationary tefore long. The senate Is getting on nit right. A senator has now made th discovery that dressed lamb In Washington costs more tbsn live lamb In Wye-

PEOPLE OF OUR TOWN

The Kid Is u Combination of pep, curiosity, devilment, goodness, fun, trouble and noise. Some days lie brings his Father' gray hairs In Sorrow to the Grave, and other days He brings back Dad's lost youth. The Kid Is hard to Get Along with sometimes, but still We can't get along Without him. IN SMART MILLINERY THINGS Winflt of Brilliant Hue and in Lacquered Effect Are Among th Favored Trimmings. Wings In brilliant colors and In lacquered effects are among the new millinery trimmings. Cockades and sweeping bows of wide ribbons, as well as glycerlned ostrich and fantasy ornaments In cellophane and oilcloth figure conspicuously on the smartest hats. The bows and cockades are posed directly at the front of the hat in such a way to give height, quite in cmitrasr to the broad, low trimmings hieb luie been seen for so ?ong.

About the only thing a business man rites with his own hand Is his name . ad that, as often as not, is illegible. His letters are typewritten will u rule line at the nd where he arev hU name in cabalistic strokes. It may be a relic of the old Idea that in order to forestall forgery ther should bQ something peculiar, even cryptic, about a formal signature, but however it be, tbe fact remains that many men boast a signature that is av good, or as bad, as anything Horace l.ireeley ever did, says Toledo Ulude. The trick or affectation of illegibility is an irritating habit and it is sur; prising that some; ellicicney expert hasn't figured out before this how many working hours are lot every lay because id tbe puzzled efforts o! receivers of letters to decide whether the communication is from Kudyani Kipling, author, or John .Smith, junk dealer. The 'demand of the Kornau freeman was for "hrend and the circus." That was more than twenty centuries ago. and today the descendants of Kome. in the Iberian j-eninsula, are still demanding "bread and the circus." Or course, the bull ring Js a very insig nificant affair compared to the Colosseum or the great amphitheater at Verona, and they only massacre bulls there, not human belnga. Still, it apparently must be classed with bread as a toecessitj, says Christian Science Monitor. Thua the government, though increasing the taxes on luxuries, omits the bull ling like the baker's shop. The matador remains as ever the most popular figure in the country. The baker planks down his pesetas to see tbe matador do his killing, which is more than the matador would think of doing to see the baker bake. The gospel of forestry and reforestation is not a matter of times and seasons: it is for all times and all seasons. Rut in the summer it ought to be easier to arouse interest in It. Hence the call should be louder and more insistent tßan ever right now, says New York Financial Chronicle. Let us all resolve here and now to strive more vigorously than ever to save the forests we love so well, the forests that have sheltered us from the heat In our vacations and given us tome of the greatest pleasures of our lives. A program with this end in view has been outlined in the form of demands for action by national and atate legislatures.

FABRICS FOR THE SUfflER CLOTHES

Drop-Stitch Voiles, Batistes, Dotted Swisses, Organdies and Linens Are Used. HATS TO ACCOMPAffif FROCKS American Shops Are Importing and Creating Headgear for Wear With individual Outfits Brighter Bathing Suita. Women are interested In knowing nil the fashion news, nut there is a great deal that must be accepted as news only, as In its original showing it is not applicable to the use of the woman who makes her own clot ires of has them made at home, avers a prominent fashion correspondent. Then, too, there are many ideas that, while extremely useful, as suggestions, cannot be adopted In the way that they are originally pre rented. Some models are original designs worked out as suggestions for making simple and inexpensive warmweather clothes that are practical to wear at any hour of a summer day. The materials selected are the newest cotton imports of the sheer variety. Some of the advanced summer models that the French designers have sent us and some that our . best American dressmakers are preparing are very attractive. In materials, drop-stitch voiles, batistes, dotted Swisses, organdies, English prints, , handkerchief and heavy linen are used. Then there are imported voiles and organdies, daintily embroidered, In ninny instances the fabrics being of a pale shade and the embroidery white. A frock made of such fabrics naturally would be very Imple, with perhaps a tiny ribbon girdle of a contrasting color. We have had all of these materials with us In past seasons, but this year they are so remarkable In their colorings and weaves that they give us fresh Inspiration. All the marvelous hues of the most beautiful silks have been reproduced in plain, brocaded and checked organdies, voiles, batistes n?id s wisse. The shades range .from the psdesi tints to the deep browns, ccHm; shades and new reds. The clothes prepared for those go-In--South are noteworthy for the practical element combined with the dalntb t characteristic of summer apparel. Then are no extreme effects. All of the dresses nre of designs suitable t the well-dressed woman's summer wardrobe. Many of them nrv of tbe chemise type, with trlurmings of drawnwork and hemstitching. Vhen they are made with a waistline it is p!ficed low on the hips. Youthful Model in Green Linen. In direct opposition to the straightline frocks are tbose for young girls and the slender woman. These have very full skirts, with a tendency toward the extended hip. One model, developed from bottle-green handkerchief linen, has a straight skirt competed entirely of tucks ranging from the hem, which forms the bottom tuck, and Is about three Inches wide, to one at the top of the skirt, which is not d ;cper than a quarter of an inch. The waist portion has tiny tucks and drawnwork running perpendicularly. Tin skirt Is joined to the waist at a low line, the front and back being perfectly plain, while the sides art Emerald Gren Organdie in Shadow Check With Square Cape. Collar. gathered very tightly, thereby producing the extended hip appearance. The short puff sleeves are of alternating rows of tucks and drawnwork. The neck is in V-shape, and slashed down several Inches, the opening tying with strips of the material finished with hand-rolled hems. These are short, so that the bows are very small. Another attractive model is of sal-mon-colored batiste, with plaited side tunics trimmed with tiny white batiste ruflYs. The frock of white organdie is always becoming and finds infinite usa in the average woman's wardrobe, as

It can be worn on so many occasions. , On a white organdie which embodies many Ideas there Is a foundation of the material, over which Is placed an apron tunic extending three-quarters :

of the way around the skirt. The nov- j elty lies in the trimming used on both the tunic and the underskirt. It is in the form of circles made of orange and white organdie, one Interlacing the other. The chain thus formed la Inserted in the organdie. Two rowa of it are In the tunic and ona In the underskirt. The round neck la fcound , with navy blue taffeta ribbon, which i continues down the slashed portion and ties in little bows. A girdle of the same ribbon about three Inches In width encircles the waist at a rather low line and ties in a bow with long White Organdie Drtss Trimmed With Bowknota of Valenciennes Lace. - flowing ends at one side. This model may be worked out in many different combinations of color. Linen Frock of Slmplt Charm. A frock of unusual charm, and one that might easily be made at homo, la developed from orchid handktrchief linen and made In simple- chemise form, with short kimono sleetes. The neckline is of square cut and' slashed at both corners of the front to a depth of about five or six Inches. The trimming is quite as simple aa the frock Itself, and consists of tiny loops made of bias strips of the material. These loops are on the bottom of the skirt, the sleeves" and neck, continuing down either side of the slashed portions of the blouse. A dainty girdle of narrow velvet ribbon a few shades darker than the material from which the dress Is evolved ties in loops at either side at a low waistline. It will be noted that practically all of tills summer's frocks slip on over the head, whether they are In chemise form or made In two separate pieces. In each instance the waist portion Is slashed to enable the wearer to don the garment more readily. White net always a favorite for lingerie dresses this season Is embroidered, and sometimes Is used in conjunction with batiste or another sheer material. A charming frocl for a young girl is developed from pale pink batiste and white net. The foundation of the dress is of the batiste. The skirt has an apron tunic extending below the foundation. This tunic is of alternating bands of the batiste and net, the former trimmed with tiny plcot-edged ruffles of net. With the turning of our thoughts toward clothes to be worn in tropical climes there comes the question of hats. The fabric hat is always popular for resort and warm weather wear. Some of our exclusive American shops nre importing and creating hats to accompany each individual frock. One dress Is of 'white georgette crepe, made In stralght-llne effect, with a deep fichu collar finished with double ruffle of the material, picot edged. An embroidery design of large white daisies done In heavy white silk threads, the centers of the flowers ha yellow, is worked into both the waist aod skirt portion. Bathing Suit New the Thing. No longer do women Indulge in ocean bathing solely for the exhilaration of the salt water dip. A very long time ago the bath was the thing and the apparel merely a necessary adjunct, but so surely and so steadily have bathing suit fashions been gaining for themselves a place of importance that we have all but forgotten that we ever went to the ocean Just for the pleasure of swimming. New clothes are the first consideration, the dip a secondary one. No true daughter of Neptune, la without two or three of the one-piece Jersey swimming suits that have grown In popularity each year. These, have become almost a standard fashion in bathing suits, so that there la little change In them, except In tbe colors favored. Last year tbe darker hues were in the foreground. This year the shops are showing many bright-colored Jersey suita. It la a question as to whether old rose and French blue woolens win retain their charm of color after a few plange la the ocean. i
