tered over a Jenny dance frock give a lovable, youthful air, especially when the wearer has wavy golden tresses banded with tiny pink roses, one curl falling over dimpled shoulder. The frock is of white tulle with a rounded decolletage edged with q tulle frill, and short sleeves also tulle frilled. The tulle overdress is looped up with bowknots of blue velvet, so are the little sleeves. Several dozen small pink silk rosebuds are sewed on the tulle, edging the festoons of the skirt, the bertha around the neck, dropping over the sleeve and running down the skirt like buttons.
 Another adorable dance frock for a young girl is of pale mauve tulle trimmed with many tiny punches of violets. The mauve tulle is mounted over silver tissue and is caught up here and there with wired bowknots of violet velvet.
 Reception Gowns the Most Formal.
 There are more stately and formal functions in Washington than the New York season-or the season of any other American city sees; and these stately occasions call for distinguished d and stately gowns, rather different than the fluttering type of tulle dance

and dust, protection against the hard, limey waters sometimes found in country wash pitchers and used thoughtlessly all summer long, pro- lection against too direct rays of the hot sun and-this most important of all, protection against injurious food.
 Two generations ago every good mother dosed her young daughters in the spring with sulphur and molasses -oh nauseous dose that those who ever tasted can still taste in memory! Yet sulphur and molasses had most excellent effect on the complexion. For tunately the same effect may be achieved nowadays with less distaste- full spring medicines. Stewed rhu- barb, eaten several days a week through the spring months, will do wonders to clear and whiten the skin. Preserved ginger is another good old fashioned freshener of complexions which show the results of too much heavy, rich food and too much sitting over winter fires.
 There is an ancient saying to the effect that:
 Ginger eaten in the spring,
 Luster to her eyes doth bring"

The truth is that the system needs a gentle laxative of this sort after winter of indoor life, overeating of highly seasoned dainties and too little exercise in the open air.

&W OUR women out of five when
 Ruz they think of their complexions,
 think only of that little patch
 of epidermis visible between coiffure and collar and bounded on the east and west by ears. They devote hours of attention and worry to this small section; and spend untold dol- lars upon ungents, ointments, cos- metics and massage to be applied upon it-and then wonder with dis couragement "why their complexions are not better"
 The fifth woman looks deeper into the question. She knows that the lit tie patch of skin aforementioned is but the visible sign and symbol of well-being or the reverse of the whole bodily structure, the whole nervous system, and what is more obscure and incomprehensible; the mental and the spiritual state of being. Continued despondency can sap all the bloom from a complexion quite as success fully as disordered liver. Worry and suspense can make hollows un- der the eyes that are even more un- becoming than the shadows of in- validism.
 So the term "complexion" is a far reaching one and has good deal more to it, when you come to think about it, than a mere reference to the bit of skin that is drawn across the facial bones of the skull. And there are many things that the complexion must be fed, beside cold cream and talcum powder, if 1t is to preserve any sort of bloom through middle age and into old age.
 It is a wise woman who begins talk ing thought of her complexion before the last twenty year mark has passed over her head; not thought in the way of cold cream and cosmetics-few skins really require massage treat ment under thirty, for before sagging of the muscles has set in it is better to let we'll enough alone-but thought in the way of the real needs of the complexion. These are sunlight, fresh air at night, plenty of cold water, just enough and not too much warm water, protection against harsh winds

Mckinley Memorial.

Kansas may spend $1,000 for the
erection of statue of John w. Leedy,
former governor, at the site of the new
half million dollar Mckinley memorial
building. Niles, Ohio. The proposition
was today submitted to Governor Cap
per He will check the matter up to

Acting under directions today from
the federal war department, Charles
I. Martin, adjutant general. will or

bers to be placed at government dis
posal in this state. 1t is probable
that an aviation school will be es-
tablished on an so acre tract of land
near Topeka or at Fort Riley Phil
Billiard of Topeka. who recently en-
listed in the government aero service,
will probably be placed in charge of
the company and will conduct the
school.
Work of the new government avia-
ton school will be under supervision
of four licensed aviators. Billiard will

will mean the working out of a COM
prehensive aviation program in Kan
saS. A complete training school for
aviators will be established and will
be in constant service of the govern
ment. Forty-five men are to be en-
listed for the school. Organization
work will start at once.
May Be Near Topeka.
1t is probable that Billiard will be
consulted concerning the location of
the new school in this state. One re-
port in Topeka today was to the ef-
feet that the school might be located
on an eighty acre tract near Topeka.
If this plan is abandoned, the school
will IDLY be taken to the govern
ment reservation at Fort Riley. Mem
bers of the aviation company will be
required to devote one year to active
training. At the end OF that time
they will be eligible to commissions in
the general aviation work of the gov
eminent under direction of the war
department. The Kansas school is to
be a unit of a series of schools to be
organized by the war department in
various states. Kansas, however, will
be among the first states to prepare
for active training.
Under the new plan of the govern
ment for employment of aero corps in
the rapid transit of mails. the future
of the new Kansas aviation organiZa-
ton may cover a wide range Tt is
believed that the war department will
cooperate with other federal depart
ments not alone in the enlistment of
men for possible war service, but Tor

ton system.
