decidedly good figure is one that 10 cut
low. buttons at the back, fits round about
the shoulders with fat severity and In
front is shaped into a long point that comes
to the waist.
The collars that are almost capes and are
shaped 10 At up high about the neck in
standing collar style are wonderful for
their exquisite at over bust and shoulders
and up the curve Of the neck. This style
fastens In the back. Only the woman
with beautiful neck and shoulders should
attempt 10 wear this decidedly daring
creation that shows not a seam In its struc-
ture and cannot be initiated with good
effect.
One Of these models varies from this
usual shape by having two broad bands Of
lace-stul Of the same piece-coming down
In front from the collar to the belt.
The bolero has never really disappeared
since 1t was the rage some years ago, and
the lace bolero Il especially beautiful this
season. One pretty style turns over into
q wide sailor collar around the top and is
fastened In front below the collar with
straps Of velvet ribbon that link It's edges
together over two-inch space. This q GU

The lace pelerine will be beyond the purse
OF most women. but those who will be able
to afford 1t will add much beauty to their
wardrobe. One Of the sketches shows a
soft falling pelerine that reaches the waist
In front. Il short over the shoulders. IL
tapered into the waist at the back with
little folds and then from under q ribbon
girdle flares into long nash ends.
Another lace cape cut very low In the
neck Is shaped In front and back to taper
to the waist. From under the ribbon belt
It falls over the skirt to the hem In one great
single tab.
All kinds OF berthes are used, and none

Msthodists Have Unique and Inter

Sunday morning was set apart espe'

aged, but the infirm as we'll. About
ffty responded to the invitation to
attend the services.
The church was beautifully deco-
rated with evergreens, bright autumn
leaves, flowers and ferns. Rocking
chairs were placed about the church
to add to the ease and comfort Of the
aged. The music was we'll chosen
and appropriate to the occasion. The
familiar hymus that they heard In
their childhood days we're sung. The
first number was How tedious and
taSteleHS the hours, led BY the choir
and joined in heartily by the cougre-
gation.
The choir rendered "Jesus Lover Of
