THE MARRIAGE FEAST OF CANA

THE MARRIAGE FEAST OF CANA.
Is there feast in the whole cal
endar Of the Church, that is dedicated
to the public honoring of Christian
marriage? And if not, why not? The
Redeemer honored it as He honored
no other Sacrament, by making it the
occasion of His initial public miracle,
the threshold of His ministry, the
joining circumstance between His hid.
den and His public life. What more
fitting day for recalling His exaltation
of marriage than on the day when the
beautiful story Of the Gospel is read
and we hear Of the joy of the OPEN
ing work Of redemption? Sermons on
this Gospel have dwelt eloquently on
the circumstance of the Holy Mothers
influence, of His undeniable respect
for her in spite Of His addressing her
as woman" and have emphasized the
first manifestation Of His Divine pow
er, all of which, of course, is fine and
true. But is there not special sig
nificance also to be read in this Cos
pei? The marriage bond in Eden was
the first human bond that the Lord i'm.
posed. It was the browning act of
Creation. It was the primal seal of
all that came before and Of all that
should succeed. The marriage bond
Ct Cana drew forth the foreshowing Of
- new creation, and the water made

MODES FOR YOUNG GIRLS.

January always calls for a refur-
'bishing of ones winter wardrobe.
Usually the clothes that have been
bought in the fall for winter wear are
beginning to look shabby and there
is general feeling of wanting some
thing new.
AS the separate coat holds such a
strong place in the up-to-date wo.
mans wardrobe, it is safe to say that
it is a new dress to be worn under
this coat which she needs most.
For this dress come many materials
both practical and smart. At present
the chosen fabric is covert in one of
the light tan shades which it is al
ways to be seen in. Simple of style
are most of these frocks. l saw one
not long ago with plain bodice so
short-waisted as to be almost Empire.
The waist was double-breasted, but
toning on one side with round ball
buttons covered with the material.
The high military collar also buttons
at the side with these buttons. The
skirt is gored and flares at the sides,
1t is untrimmed and fastened to the
waist with four-inch belt.
Another frock developed in beige
colored gabardine, fabric which
holds a strong place next to covert
cloth, l am using for my illustration,
The waist is made becomingly sur
pl1ce with long close-fitting sleeves.
The skirt is the popular short length
and very full. There is no belt, as
the waist is worn over the skirt and
finished like the old-fashioned short
basque at the normal waistline. A
cunning little hat which reminded
one a little of Scotch cap was worn
with this dress. It was of the same
color as the dress and trimmed with
a band of grosgrain ribbon which
ended in streamers in the back. A
veil was worn over the hat, coming
down well below the chin and allowed
to hoat away from the face.
Another material which is used for
this type of frock to wear beneath a
topcoat, for street or outdoor wear, is
serge. The finer weave of serge is
best for frock, as it is usually light
er of weight and more supple than the
heavier twilled qualities. Navy blue
is the most popular color in this fab.
ric at the present time and is often
trimmed with black satin bands and
satin-covered buttons.
1t may be an afternoon dress that
this supposititious lady needs, a gown
of frillier possibilities for dressy oc-
casions-to wear to reception, to an
afternoon bridge party, to an informal
dinner and other similar occasions.
A dress which would fit charmingly
into any of these places is one of the
Cabot sisters latest creations. The
skirt is of midnight blue chiffon vel.
vet. The front of the skirt is made
with a tunic reaching only to a back
panel which extends from neck to the
edge of skirt. Where this panel and

THE MOST BEAUTIFUL FLAG,

For beauty of design, historical sig
nificance, poetry of message, vivid
coloring, unique effect and national
representation the Irish flag outranks
all of the other flags. Its green and
gold, suggestive of hope, its harp tell
ing of a great lyrical past, it's sun
burst promising glorious future, it's
distinctive difference from other flags
showing a living national principle,
all claim enthusiasm and make it the
most glorious standard of all.
