My poor bead is tired.’ But not Mother Ocean. “When the Breaker Boys start playing and the Wave children have a high old time, does Mother Ocean tell them to hush, or that she has a headache? “Oh. no! She tells them to go ahead and play—to play wildly, madly! “She tells them to roar and shriek, to tumble and toss and twist and rock and roar. “She tells them to call the Winds and race and play games and cut up pranks ami scamper and do whatever tliey wish to do. “She Is a wild ocean mother, ah yes, she s*’’ So Mother Ocean was talking in her deep, low fashion. The sea pink flowers heard her. “That’s good old '•Mother Ocean,” they whispered to each other. “She’s a rough one at times.” said . the Breeze Brothers as they lazily blew this way and that with as little effort as was possible. - - i “Oh, yes, she’s a rough one at times,” the pink flowers answered, “but she gives one so much strength." The sea pink flowers were also called the marsh pink flowers. Tliey were members of the Gentian family. | “We wouldn’t like to he away from J her,” the flowers continued. “We feel that we wouldn’t have any strength or energy if we lived away in the country where Mother Ocean never visited. “We like to hear her talk. It makes us feel so full of.life when we hear her great, splendid voice. “Then she uses such a Wonderful perfume—it’s so briny and salty and fresh and such a suitable for ’ . an ocean to use.” I “I’ve never heard any more praise for a ne!glja»r than you’re giving now,’* : the ers said. » i “Os tourse,” Cy—- ■ they added after > a moment, “we really shouldn’t i say t h at. for others are Just as much devoted to £L»^( those who are near them.

ENSEMBLE SUITS GO STRONG; MANNISH COATS FOR JUNIORS

THE ensemble suit, from the time of Its introduction, has been a success with discerning women of fashion. As a result of increased variety in design. it shows signs of becoming an established rival of the plain, mannish tailored suit, and is making a wider appeal than ever this spring. The ensemble is especially well adapted to styles In formal suits, but It has h'-en developed lately along those very practical lines that lead to unanimous approval. In these late versions of the ensemble, practical suitings are used for the coats which are cut on simple

Interesting details of tailoring are Introduced In these straight-hanging, practical coat*, as in the large patch pockets on the coat >at the right of the picture given here.

Frocks to be worn with these very useful | coats are made of printed silk, of plain crepe, of the material In the coat, or they reveal silk or crepa in combination with the cloth used in the eoat. The frock shown in the figure at the left of the picture is severely tailored, with fashionable slit pockets ; at each side and bone buttons byway of finish on the skirt. These buttons emphasize the introduction of fullness

| Trimming Is Unique One of the most approved methods j I of trimming this season is by the; I manipulation of the fabric in tucking I godet* and flares and achieving acer- • i tain elaborate effect without any ap-' I parent effort.

Os interest alike to youth and its elders are the handsome gayly plaided soft-wool coats, which feature so definitely for sports and travel this season. Grownups are pleased to refer to their new double-breasted woolen coats, so smartly tailored, as prince of Wales models. Little folks are wearing topcoats similar in design, for an out- | standing feature of children’s apparel today is that it is almost amusingly a reproduction of the styles worn by mother and big sister. The same mannish topcoats which stand for latest style to grown folks are being repeated for juniors. All th*

characteristic details are stressed, especially the notched collar, the double breast, with either slash or patch pocket* Yes! even the tiny boutonniere on the lapel is worn by little girl* They tiny felt hat impart* a finishing touch.

— g . s Playground Great Need of Every Community ’ Os 19,000 and more inquiries on public recreation received by the Playground and Recreation Association of America in 1924, one-third came from communities of 2,500 , population or less. ’ if That such places are more alive t* the necessity of planning for recreation than ever before is clear, but any« thing like complete statistics on th* number of parks, playgrounds and other recreation facilities established as a, result of this interest arw unavailable. This article, therefore, is not a survey of small-town recreation, but a brief review of typical achievements. The facts are taken from the current flies of the Playground and Recreation Association of America and from publications of th* United States Department of Agriculture. Recreation facilities in small town* include mainly parks, athletic fields, community houses, picnic grounds, tennis courts, bathing beaches and swimming pools. Tour-' Ist camps also are common. In many instances, the recreation facilities combine several features. Parks, for instance, often have within their area playgrounds, athletic fields and swimming pools or other facilities. In the majority of the towns studied, recreation is financed by public subscription. Yet instances of successful municipal maintenance demonstrate the feasibility of tax support. It is scarcely necessary to say that leadership for recreation In th* small town Is Just as essential as in the city. The success of the program usually varies with the competence of the management. | Town Has Found Park Profitable Investment Wamego, Kans., has a population of only 1,585, but in 1904, as a result of a bond election. It purchased 12 acres of land for park purposes at a cost! of (2,525. Recently the park board purchased 3 adjoining acres at a cost of $2,000 for use as a tourist camp ground. Improvements Include an artificial lake 4% feet deep with an are* of 1H acres, used for boating and bathing; a wading pool, electric fountain 45 feet In diameter and 27 feet high; a women's rest house, a men’* comfort house, band stand, dancing pavilion, playground equipment, thre* drinking fountains, dining tables, steel range, baseball, football and basketball fields, and other facilities. It i* maintained by town funds at an average yearly expense of $1,500, Thia Includes the salaries of, caretaker and janitor for seven months. The only charge made for the park is for entertainments for gain. The revenue comes from licenses for show* and from the church, school and general welfare fund. The park Is extensively used.—Exchange. Value of Paved Streets The stranger forms his opinion of a town by Its street* schools and churches. We have the schools and churches but some of our streets would be more pleasing if they were moved. In fact there really should not be an unpaved street in the city, limits. Paved streets Increase the value of all property and are an asset to the community, equal te adequste schools and churches. ,Wlth Sheffield fast coming Into' the great.
