Community .11. Heart Interest Cojmts in Establishing Home Too many homes ure built merely of wood, concrete, brick and stone when the fact of the matter is you have just • bouse and not a real hope at all. It is true that these concrete materials are necessary yet it is equally true that It requires more—much more than these—to build a real home. With the wood and stone and mortar one must mix a liberal amount of careful consideration, personal planning and real heart interest, else you will have a house —not a home. Build your home on paper first—carefully plan every room, take Into consideration the years that you and your loved ones will probably occupy this home. In the choice of the materials one ptust be guided by personal preference. If you finally decide that a frame construction is the type best suited to youe needs, then by all means that is the kind of house you should build. If on the other hand, you decide that you prefer some other kind of material, the choice is yours, but it is well to give this angle of the nome you are going to build considerable study and be absolutely sure. Then comes the type of home or rather the style of the building you will erect. It is a good plan to go around and see the different types, thus getting a fairly good Idea as to just how any particular style will l<»ok. When you have done this and finally decided, then go over and check up on all of the details and see If there Is anything you have missed or not considered. Get every detail of the new home firmly fixed in your mind — then build, and you may be sure that you will not only have a house, but a home as well.—lndianapolis Star. Money Expended on Paint Well Laid Out Paint, says an authority. Is an essentia) factor to sftnltury conditions as well as to surface-saving properties. Paint, when used Inside and out. will protect a building, prevent deterioration and practically eliminate repair bills. Compared with the value of the property, the cost of the insurance paint gives one is slight. “You always pay dearly for the painting you do not do." he asserts. “Unprotected surfaces quickly rot, boards split and joints become loose. Rundown buildings sooner or later need repairs, which are always expensive. Front an investment standpoint. whatever you spend for painting and decorating always pays big returns. Paint and redecorate— it I** the most economical thing you can do. Decorating makes new homes out of old ones. “Property that is painted and decorated is always worth more because It looks better. From a selling standpoint, a building with a good appearance is always much more desirable than an unkept one. You will he proud of the appearance and the ownership of your building and convinced that the outlay for painting uml decorating Is money well spent. If you are not satisfied with the interior of your home, redeeora.'ing shm.’d go a long way toward remedying your feeling.” Tarn to Regional Planning t'ity planning, especially ?n large cities, sometimes involves tremendous expenditures. It may he described as a big Job of replanning and recon-strm-tlon. It means correcting past errors, changing things to meet new and unexpected conditions. A notable example of city planning was that undertaken in Paris In 1559 under the leadership of the emperor Napoleon 111. and under the stn ng hand of Baron Haussmann, says Frederick A. Delano in National Municipal Review. Regional planning, on the other hand. Is planning for the future In the suburbs and the open country. This is the sort of planning that has been carried on so successfully in Europe. Trees on High mays The American Tree association predicts that tree planting, especially that along roadsid-s. will set a new record this year. The enrollment in the association now has reached 72.U00. the association announces, and every member is active either in planting new growths or in preserving old ones. The European scheme of roadside beautification might well be followed tn this country, where tourists and sightseers travel In for greater numbers than in the Old world. The walnut. for instance. Is a vanishing specimen which once was almost as common as the oak. It Is a tree with a high commercial value and has few peers for beauty —Meriden Record.

Long Sleeves and Tunic for Autumn

Radical Change* Meet With Disfavor—Fringe Trimming Favorite. Genius and ingenuity have an oral similarity and nothlhg more. There is a vast difference between the poetic expression of a Shelley and the rhymes of the futurist, between the masterpiece of a Whistler and the vivid painting of the Impressionist. And there Is an equally broad chasm separating the creative designer from the sensationally inclined dressmaker, who will even espouse the grotesque in an endeavor to give milady something different. The test of true greatness In fashion, asserts a Paris writer in the New York Herald-Tribune. Iles in the ability of the designer to induce a different mood rather than to create a new'mode. Through the almost imperceptible raising of the waistline, the scarcely Invisible change In the sleeve or waist, the Lanvins and the Chanels are able to accomplish far more than all of the combined hack dressmakers who helle\e that a new i'r Hjigr 'S soL‘' ' ; White Silk, Featuring a Combination of Flat and Fringe Embroidery. style can only he achieved by compelling the mode tn do an abrupt about-face. It is true enough that the essence of fashion is change, hut It is equally certain that tinman nature normally offers the strongest resistances to any deviations from Its accustomed fare. The task for the genius of the couturier is to reconcile these premises—to produce a vitally different effect, but to avoid radically different themes; to lead the mode into unaccustomed channels by the most accustomed methmls Not Favored by Autumn Mode. These are |a*rtinent considerations in any analysis of the new clothes which will sound the costume keynote for foil and winter A, great deal of disappointment hits been manifested because at the Paris openings and at the French shore resorts, where some of the foil clothes made their appearance, there is no evidence of a very radical change in the mode. The short skirt has become a, little shorter, per-

Skirts Are Much Shorter

Skirt* nre distliwtly shorter than they were ut the February showings. Just as the straight line has prevailed over the circular cut. so also has there been a definite movement In favor of the shorter skirt as against the longer one. Thus today the fashionable skirt is both short and retains its slender outline. The occasional wideness that is being Introduced at the stitnmn openings does not materially disturb the straight silhouette. The tunic form Is in evidence every where, and s«» Is the double vohinte with the upper flounce a bit fuller than the lower. Often the runic is flowered, embroidered or printed In high color*. Once ntore the Paris modistes are staging a carefully prepared revolution against the perennial cloche which for the last few seasons has crowded every other chnpetiu out of rhe picture, and. from early indications, their newest efforts will las relatively successful. Which does Dot mean that the cloche is about to fade into a qu<ck oblivion, but rather that It will !.ow

Have House Dress That Will Save Much Washing

A house dress Is always getting dirty in front before the remainder of the drees is soiled, so it is a good Idea to make 4. foundation dross to which adjustable fronts may oe snapped. If one makes one’s own frocks several of these adjustable fronts may be cut from extra doth bought for the purpose. . Tills front, whieb la aft Ilk**® bib apron, snapping on the shoulders and again on the > nek of skirt, well around the side seams, when adjusted, makes •b entirely presentable garment. For a person five feet six inches tall, of average weight, the following measurements will be found satisfactory. but a little experiment with a newspaper pattern will settle any difficulty. Length of sides of skirt portion, 24 Inches; width of skirt portion. 84 Inches; from neck to bottom, 88 Inches; chest measurement. 11 Inches. Two snaps on each shoulder (buttons and buttonholes would be more

haps a little wider; the straight line maintains its inflexible rigidity. And the dilettante critics, lamenting bitterly over the evil days which hava come to a mode which in their eyes knows no change, seize avidly upon the bizarre efforts of a few sensationalists whose creations will never grace anything more than the momentary shoulders of the mannequin. The mistake of these too casual observers is that they consider the means agid not the end. It is true that the fools of the designer have not greatly changed, that plait and flounce, slenderness and simplicity, tunic and scarf, are Just as intent factors in the new mode as they were in the old. ’But it Is equally patent that the creative genius of the French couturier has brought a grace and dignity into its latest fashions which will have a deeper significance than any of the so-called revolutionary changes which have been sponsored by the lesser lights of the mode. The inauguration of a new-style cycle is not necessarily Indicated by these artistic changes but there has been unquestionably added an atmosphere of maturity which hus been lacking in recent seasons. The logical representations of the new autumn tendencies retain the straight, short, slender simplicity of their predecessors in rhe mode, but they have added a graceful austerity which quickly distinguishes them from (he garcon styles of last season. They are distinctive without being blzzare. different but not radical. The long tunic is the most outstanding characteristic of these fna-ks. which also exploit lace, the flounce and vivid coloring*. The basis for all is tSte simple silhouette, now more firmly ensconced than ever before. Long Sleeves in the Mode. A distinguishing feature of the Into season Is the long sleeve. While many of the dresses are still sleeveless, tlie really new note is the long, perfect-tit-ting sleeve adjusted to a small shaped armhole. The sleeve follows the outline of the up|>er arm. fitting quite snugly and sometimes* even tightly. From the elbow down the sleeve may vary in form. Often it is finished exactly like a shirtwaist, with a little cuff hand; again It Is straight In Chinese style and trimmed with a band of self material, this band in many Instances being corded. But It always- a neat trim appearance. — Occasionally these tight-fitting sleeves have below the elbow one or two plaited flounces or decorations of hand-embroidered fringes, made of cordonet or Milan, a smooth tubular cord which dressmakers are now using for sewn-ln and embroidered fringes Each little strand of the cord that form* the fringe it threaded through the fabric with a half-dozen or more stitches. Callot featured this sewn-ln fringe in the early spring, and it is one of the decorative themes that has become more pronounced ns the season has advanced. Such an adornment Immediately transforms the simplest looking dress Into one of quite elaborate style. It in no way detracts from the slender line, as the threads, braids or cords used for this type of embroidery are of artificial silk and have both brilliancy and weight. The strands are sufficiently coarse to prevent tangling. It is quite apparent that simplicity will again be the dominant note. Everything that is slim and straight is expressed in the newest dresses The silhouette may have a flounce, it may be plaited, it may be cut with a slight flare fullness, it may be straight around at the hem or there may be a tunic, but in all Its varying forms fashion k<**q>s to the very straight line
