One smart little gingham frock seen recently, in a yellow and wjdte check, was trimmed with latticed insertions formed of white organdie set lengthwise of the skrrt so as to give it a paneled effect, the waist being similarly treated. A row of the Insertion trimmed each outer sleeve and the neck was finished with an organdie frill. Organdie Is a fabric that promises to have a strong vogue for summer and. If a good piaHty Is selected an organdie dress will give splendid service. It is easy" to launder, requiring no starch, and needs but little in the way of trimming.

" Mars I Dead; Try the Planet of Love, Is the Advice of a Prominent vweaisn :hlm.Th iwedish Astronomer. Stockhplm.The planet Mars, nn old dylmj world; Is receiving . altogether; too much attention from earth'scie&dtetsrtios? days" nnd nights, while the up-and-coralng young planet Venus Is Just waiting for n chance to know us better. This is the conclusion of Profcf sor Svanto Arrhenlus, Nobel prize winner nndone of Europe's foremost scientists and astronomers, who lectured here on the prospect of wheedling from the heavens the secrets of some of our celestial neighbors, and especially Mars, when that planet swings into closest proximity to the earth two years hence. If scientists and long-distance radio fans really want to communicate with some celestial neighbor, Professor Arrhenlus said, they will not find Mars very cordial, for the old fellow Is dead. lie described as "fantastic" the belief that so-cnlled canals observed on the planet were the work of engineers nnd Attributed them to earthquake tlssures. Venus, on the other hand, offers potential possibilities to the patient astronomer. Professor Arrhenlus declared. At the expiration of a billion years he thought n flourishing eclony of intelligent beings might be discovered on fhe bright little planet. "When the earth is extinguished." he concluded, "it will bo Venus, queen of the heavens, that will take over th rolo as carrier of culture." CHAMPION WOMAN RIFLE SHOT OF CALIFORNIA A A A A .T.
