THE hummer girl' should take to

advises that in times Of peace we
should prepare for war. Now that

spring styles already fairly we'll set

Of springtime so inspiring!

should be got under way. Fashionable
embroidery for gowns will not try any

stitches, like the strokes Of a paint

Flounced gowns and draped skirts
are to be with US this spring. Print

popular, and taffeta silk has an as

HE small round turbans and hats
which are so popular in our new

chosen are those that set squarely on

and narrow brims.

design is likely to be changed q little.
The wolfe underwaist is to be made
with round Dutch neck and elbow

drapery of lace will fall. This makes
a dress that is appropriate for both
afternoon and evening, and is one OF
several styles for gowns of the same
character
The summer girl must provide her
self with sashes and girdles. With

The case was without precedent in

I know that as a lawyer l have my

the latter lacked the sanction that gave

that these foundations are more evil
