LACE FROCK FOR THE SOUTH
BY a Smart Girl

gorgeous in the afternoon sunlight,
and the beach is just fascinating. But
it seemed that an afternoon dansant at
the hotel was about to take place, and
Elinor had arranged that we should
attend.
1t was a most interesting affair and
quite different from anything of the
sort l have ever seen. A wooden
floor, specially designed for dancing,
was fixed outside in sort Of court
yard beneath the waving palm trees.
The Viennese orchestra was almost
hidden behind a bank of flowers, and
the air was soft and cool.
Elinor introduced several men to
me, and I noticed they were all in
white fiannels. Lots of the girls wore
white serge skirts and sweaters OF
various brilliant colors. The whole
scene was most tropical and brilliant.
The frock wore was of white lace
over peach-blossom satin. The design
is exclusive, and the embroidery il
really beautiful
The short-wsisted bodice is fastened
all the way up with mother-of-pearl
buttons, and the high collar Is par
ticularly smart with Its turnover effect
The skirt is rather full and gathered
into a yoke, which boasts Of nve cir
cular rows of lace trimming. The
same trimming adorns the hem Of the
gown, the latter of course, being very
uneven in the new style.
Hand-embroidered lace gowns are
seen everywhere here. OF course
they are rather expensive-unless one
has the energy to do the embroiderine
oneself. Many winter evening
spent over embroidering this one, but
the result quite justifies the trouble
taken
| The return to lace gowns is . dis
! tinct reversion to old styles. For quite
o long period they went entirely out
But they are SO very, becoming tc
every one that one, indeed, welcomes
their return.

You will remember that the last we

1t wasn't more than a minute after
the horse got up the next morning
before Matthew was wide awake and
rubbing his eyes to make sure where
he was and how he came there. But
in a minute he remembered every
thing, and going over to the horse he
said, Flows de foot, dis mawning'
pony?" and, bending over, picked up
the injured foot and looked at It. The
horse let him look at 1t without NOV

age he saw that the wound had begun
to heal all right
Just then he heard the call Of a
voice which said: "HAy dar, you in

A VACANT LOT
(By Helen Montague.)
= . = o = . = q = q . 3 Q

Perhaps the most valuable vacant
lot in our city is the one directly op-
posite the county court house
Some years ago, pretty cottage
graced this lot, but fire, the greatest
destroyer known, claimed it. re-
member, just few years ago, that the
lilies and hepaticas, which were in the
door yard when this place was homo
to some one, bloomed on as il the
house was still occupied and some one
would soon come out to admire their
beauty; but time in its fight has also
destroyed the flowers and now only
weeds, grass and billboards remain.
Hattiesburg, in her growth, has
seemed to pass this lot by, building
farther up the main thoroughfare
leaving this lot unmolested. 1t has
been suggested several times as very
desirable building site for the long
looked-for Opera House; it was also
the fond hepe of some that the Y. M.
c. A. building might be placed here,
but tho only true service this lot now
gives is the lending of itself as
hitching ground for poor WORKOUT
horses on horse traders day. Too,
sometimes, generally in the spring of
the year, few farming implements
are displayed here in the hope that
passing farmers may see them and
become buyers.
When viewing a neglected piece Of
ground, very few of us stop to think
how beautiful it could be made with a
little labor A plot such as this one,

offers field of action. Suppose we
were to pull the billboards down and
plant in their stead row of old-fash-
toned hollyhocks or sunfiowers; plant
hedge around the street side and
arrange beds of pansies, verbena,
asters and smiIax. Don't you feel sure
the passersby would thank the
planter?

 Having been assured on these points. the good man turned to his paper, only to be interrupted by his young son and heir:
 Father" asked the boy, what is vacuum and where can find one?"
 My boy" replied the good man, eff we are to assume that your mother is qualified to speak on the subject, I possess the only real vacuum in the neighborhood and, for your further in- formation, it is situated just between my collar and the glossy open space where I used to grow hair"
 You mean your dome?"
 "Yes, my son. that is the family vac uum."
