FOR THE GIRL WHO WANTS
TO EARN
Possibilities of the Social Season

= WONDER if the girl who wants
to make money has ever thought
Of using the social and club sea-

money? Just now, in big cities or in
smaller, you hear much of card clubs,

bun Let US study its possibilities where
the girl with will is concerned.
Every social and every club entertain
ment must have its touch of hospitality
IN the way of refreshments Every hos
tess and every committee reach the point
where they would be glad to have certain
details taken off their minds and hands.
Think of the opportunity this gives you.

How 20 Go About Il
Suppose you live in a big, oid-fash-
toned house. the kind with center hall
and long double parlors, or with one
big parlor; why do you not go right
into the entertainment business? Rent
your parlors to hostesses and clubs
Clear the rooms of superhuous furniture
and tint the walls a soft neutral tint,
against which pretty gowns will be in
color harmony. You can tint the walls
yourself to save expense, but remember
that certain strong c0lors viii spoil the
effect of certain other colors. You will
want to change the Colors of your floral
decorations TO suit seasons and occa-
sionS, and that IS another reason why
YOU must not have a bright background.

chairs. If ingenious, you can manu-

fabric a slip of this sort is practically
a necessity. It assures the same shade

immensely to the good effect of the COS

bear of the summertnne-the gaping

Still another advantage is that by
supplying slips of different colors, aud
using corresponding ribbons at girdle,
neck and hair, very pleasing variety
may be given to one gown. The slip
may be of silk, but it is by no means
necessary that it should be. Lawn, any
good mercerized lining fabric or satine
