Tell mother that she needs a rest
and that you are going to make il
possible for her to take it right at
home. She must have her break
fast in bed, served on a dainty tray,
as though she had always been
lady of leisure. It will be hard for
her to be inactive for awhile, but she
will begin to enjoy the novelty Of the
situation very soon.
While you are tidying up the
house, starting the luncheon and
making the beds, mother can be out
in the garden or in the hammock
reading some of the books and maya
zines she had to push aside during
the busy winter months. In the aft

park while you take care of little sis

things for supper
How splendid it will be to sit down
at the table with mother and the rest
of the family and know that you have
done everything to put the house in
apple pie order and made all the good
things to eat yourself.

ial written by. one of you to you.
When you were babies your mother
bought you a little rag doll to play
with and you made mud pies in the
garden. When you grew older a
baby doll took its place and instead
of mud pies you tried your luck at
real ones" Mother showed you how
to keep house" and take the very
best care of your baby" and in. this
way you spent many, many happy
hours.
Now that you are grown up and
school is out for a few mOnths-why
don't you play house again? Only
this time play really house." for it is
just as important that you know how
to run a house and cook well as it is
to learn your school lessons.
Be the hOUsekeepeT in your own
house for about a month and give
your mother a vacation! The very
idea of it will make everybody happy,
and while you are learning to keep
house and cook you will be having
just as much fun as you had playing
house when you were a little girl.
Perhaps you have noticed that
since the fine summer weather has
made its appearance mother is begin

working with her nerves instead of
with her muscles. The housekeeping
has run along so smoothly through

a veritable 'choker" held in place by
a crush collar with old blue velvet.
A military red chiffon waist had
small dull ball-shaped buttons to fas-
ten the collar, sleeves and front of
the waist. A gold ribbon passes
around the waist and is covered with
chiffon. The yoke over the should
ers is outlined with gold cord from
which drop little red tassels.
Dresses.
Dresses of one-piece type for day
time use have the effect of a skirt
and acket. The bolero idea is ust as
prominent as the soft waist which
has the wide revers in front. Narrow
as Nell as wide braids are used on
the one-piece frocks.
A dress of brick red serge was
combined with plain taffeta. The
skirt was banded with seven bias
bands of the taffeta edged with a
piping. The full-length set-in sleeves
were closely fitting and laced with
black silk cord. The skirt had a
deep yoke all around. The high
stand-up collar was of white satin
and buttons. Under the arm were
rows of silk cording braided, and this
continued down the skirt on each
side.

the front and sides very full This
was shirred at the high waistline with
wide beading, The bottom of the

Dame Fashion, who for so many
years claimed Paris for her resi-
dence, has forsaken her birthplace
and Transformed her WITNESSES and
fancies 10 our own shores. She was
cordially greeted by our American de-
sfgners, who were on the alert to
prove that for artistic conceptions,
they rank second TO none.
Fashions no longer originate in
Paris, and have to be modified 10 suit
the American women, but the Amer
lean woman today realizes that the
modes created expressly for them are
characterized by good taste, simphci-
", and that the American designer
viii hereafter rule the world of dress.
The styles. which are inventions of
American brains, have been received
with such enthusiastic praise that we
are sure II will be an incentive for
many OF our young American people
70 take up American designing of
American fashions as their vOcauons.
What finer form OF patriotism can
there be than TO produce the worlds
finest merchandise, and such efforts
are surely worthy of support Amer
lean women can encourage the de-
signing OF American fashions by ask
ing for materials made in America
and at least TO give them the benefit
whenever they are equal 20 the im-
ported fabrics
The time spent in selecting the
r. ght dress is never wasted, for when
decided upon You need give 1t no
further thought. Colors are seldom
the came in daylight as under artifi-
cial light. SO materials should be in
spected in the light for which they
are intended to be worn.
Some OF the colors which YOU VIII
recognize as OF American origin bv

OF course black and white are ever

Inspiration for the winning styles
of spring have been taken from the
costumes of the Dutch peasants from
the Slavic countries and from Japan

1920 aud 1880 styles Will surely be IN
evidence this season.
The marked new feature IN the sill
houette is the wide skirt narrow
shoulder. the sleeve fitted to the arm
hole and the raised waist line, al
though the normal waistline is still
used.
There is great variation in sleeves:
they may be long and close fitting,
full or puffed short as in the thinner
costumes.

styles, l EN- glad TO say, give a youth
full air. Suits are tailored, man tall

BlOuSeS.
In blousedom the deep armhole eff
fects with the sleeve attached to the
lining at the shoulder, or the set-in
sleeve are certain items TO be reckon
ed with. Some sleeves show cap or
epaulette effects. The partial mill
tary collar stands out at the back of
the neck and the sides and is usually
of the same material as the blouse.
Collars are also made so they can
be worn buttoned up to the neck or
converted into sailor collars. Sea
sand, putty, cement and maize are
used for smart blouses. Pale flesh
tints and white are always cool look
ing.
New sport waists called Oliver
Twist models are made of handker-
chief linen with collars and cuffs of
contrasting colOrs. Tailored waists
have an enchanting softness about
them and are usually finely tucked
and buttOned up the front in rows of
small buttons. A good deal of braid
ing is noticed on the waists. Machine
embroidery in silk floss in the form
OF chain stitching is used a good deal.

patches appeared under the red suede
belt. The collar was Of red outlined
with gold soutache braid. The plait-
ed skirt mounted on a novelty yoke
had turn back cuff finished in front
with buttons and buttonholes.
Suit skirts all are made TO give the
flare or ripple effect around the an
kles. This is accomplished in the
form of circular cut skirts, gored
skirts, plated skirts and skirts with
circular flounce set on bit below the
knee. Plated panel effects are also
used in suit skirts. Full skirts mean
that the skirt must be short. Some
escape the ground by the height of
six inches and some even shorter. The
width vary anyway from 1-2 TO 8
yards.
Silk suits in taffeta and a new silk

Ottomans, taffetas and pop'ins, as

fashion authorities. Tussah silk has
been revived for tailor mades.
Silent colors, which means that the
colors are unobtrusive, are best liked
in the silk suits.
Sport coats are more in demand
than ever this season.
The three-quarter length appears
quite as frequently as shorter or long

ranged so 1t can be worn open if de-
sired. There is a pronounced use Of

Clause and Expect to Appeal

Missouri Railroads will not ac-
cept the Missouri Public Service
Commission ruling, made public
last Saturday, giving them an in
crease to 2 1-2 cents in passenger
rates within. the State, it was
learned today.
A clause in the ruling which
would require the roads to- sell
5O0-mile mileage books "to bear
err at 2 cents a mile, is the stumb-
ling block in the railroad ac-
ceptance of the increase. They
claim, in a statement issued yes
terday, that everyone would buy
mileage books, that the whole
family could ride on one book;
and that ticket scalpers would
come into existence again.
The railroads probably will ap-
peal from the decision by filing a
suit in the United States District
Court, asking for a ratification of
the Scent passenger rate allowed
by the Interstate Commerce Com
mission.
In the meantime the flat rate
Of 2 cents will prevail throughout
the State, as it has in the past
several years, during litigation.
The Commissions ruling does
not become effective until Janu-
ary l. Prior to that time the rail-
roads will have filed their suit in
the. United States District Court,
it is believed.
