Daughters and Sons is to be celebrated in
the Madison Avenue M. E. church, New

celebration will be under the supervision
of the central council Members of the

you think the Ugly Duckling never be-
comes a swami" writes Ruth Ashmore in
April Ladies' Home Journal. Rachel, who
was said to have had the most expressive
face of any woman in the century, and to
have been the most graceful was counted
nv her family an excessively ugly child
She adored beauty, and she tells in one
of her letters that suddenly one day, af-
ter looking at herself, she made up her
minds that she would be charming And
she said, I studied every hour of my life
to be ugly no longer History tells how
she succeeded. Adelina Patti was the Ug-
ly Duckling, it being thought by her pa
rents that her sister, Carlotta, was the
beauty. Mary Anderson, the ideal, class
zeal beauty of the last two decades was
considered in her own home an awkward
ordinary-looking girl, rather quiet for she
spent most of her time reading Shakes
peare. George Eliot never became a
beauty, but she forced those people who
despised her lack of attraction as a child
man. The old mammies down south al
ways scorned a pretty baby, and, oddly,

Questionable dressmakers are now maxi
ing the English distinction between the
blouse (which we usually call the shirt
waist) and the bodice, writes Isabel A.
MaIIon in April Ladies' Home Journal
ssBoth are supposed to be worn with skirts
that differ from them in color and mate
rial but the blouse is full, is draped, has
a tucked or fancy front, with stiff collar
and cuffs, and always suggests a rather
llndress get-up. The bodice fits the fig
ure, and though it3nlay be made of cot
ton, silk or velvet, it must never suggest
by its trimming or style OF collar, the
tailor-made or shirt effect. Unlike the
blouse it Is very often sufficiently elabo-
rate to be worn with the richest skirt,
and the trimming upon 1t may be ribbons
spangies, laces, feather or fur pipings
and all the very open embroidery that i'm
itates Irish crochet However It is the
hlonse that wifi be given the greatest non
ularity during the coming season."
