The Art of Advertising is as old as
the world. Evidence of this has
come down TO us in the relics
of long-vanished civilizations. We
know how advertising was demon
strated in the days of Pompeii.
Those Copymen of 1000 years ago
were masters in their way, but great
as was their skill, advertising was
denied the dignity of the Sheepskin.
This symbol of academic apprecia-
ton was never conferred upon the
craft.
Today, however Advertising has
come into its own. 1t is recog-
nized as something greater than any
Art or Science because it colors the
whole fabric oflife more intimately.
1t is a world wide power for good
in spreading the gifts and benefits
of civilization among all the peoples
OF the earth.
It's battles are legion. Its successes
colossal. Advertising creates; CIV
ilization clarifies, estimates, applies.
Advertising is the friend of every
man, rich or poor; maker of things,
or user Of what others have made.
Advertising has won its place be-

A CORRECTION.

Eve all make mistakes Of
course, but we don't respond to
encores."
The above quoted truism i
proven worthy of being kept ever
before the vision of those whc
.endeavor. do and dare in this lit
tie old world of ours, by some
new happening most every day.
1t means that man is prone t
mistakes, but to make the sam,
mistake a second time is worse
than a crime. 1t is blunder.
This little soliloquy is prompt
ed by information CLEANED from
various yet authentic sources by
the writer which compells one te
believe that one whom VIZ
thought invaluable and would
have quoted yer batim, without
substantation, heretofore did, in {
moment of youthful enthusiasm
so distort facts in reporting re
cent social happening to this pa
per that the gallants to whom the
lions share of honor should have
gone, were robbed of their justly
earned laurels. Two quiet and un-
assuming young men from Our
neighboring towns were instead
brought to the zenith OF social
prominence.
The writer's observation OF ma
kind propmts him to say that t(
not jealous youths Of their jus
renown should dampen their ar
dor that they would foreve
CEASE to struggle for social exis
tence. There would our beloved
community be deprived OF possibl
future social leaders.
The party was given by Messrs
Roy Covington, Leroy Cortel'
and Lawrence Lam, at the homc
of Mr.. and Mrs. F. Lambertsoi
on the evening of March Is.

ct is the duty of the mothers

ton provided for them SO that

are very attractive this year and gingham with bands of plain material makes useful morning dress. Cotton eponge shows some most attractive pIaids and it always makes smart and good effect trimmed with linen.
 One diagram shows the pattern laid out on material thirty-six inches wide and that is the favorite width for linen. The other diagram is numbered to show you how the pieces are to be put together. With the help of the two there should be no difficulty what ever in the making of the frock.
 First smooth the pattern out nicely, fold the cloth lengthwise and lay the pattern out as indicated. The seams are all allowed, therefore, you have only to cut on the outside edges of the pattern. After pinning each part carefully into place, cut neatly and accurately along the edges of the pat tern, then mark all the perforations and notches as you always have done, but also take care to mark the line of tiny perforations pnear each edge with different color chalk or thread because. these indicate the line on which you will baste and sew and you will want to recognize them at glance. Garry the markings through to the underside with tailors tacks that have been described in previous lessons, then we willtbe ready to begin the work of making.
 As the. first step, cut the openings for the belt because it is much easier to do this while the pieces are separate and before the seams are sewed. They are to be cut between the single per- forations. You will find them in the front and in the back. To finish the edges you can either bind them or scallop them or underface them. '
 As the next step, get the pockets ready for use. In the picture the upper edges are scalloped but on the envelope there are directions for overfacing. The ovefacing would be used if the scallops are omitted. After finishing the upper edge in whichever way you prefer, turn the seams on the ends on the lower edges under, then arrange. over the fronts of the dress with the upper edges at the lines of perfora- tions, baste into place and stitch carefully along each end and along the lower edges. Next close the shoul- der and the under-arm seams, To do this, take up tiny seam on the right side, then tuKn, baste carefully and

fell the lining over the seams. Place the sleeves ill the arm-holes with the seams at the notches and the single perforations at the shoulder seams but for this take up only single seam on the wrong side taking care to sew neatly along the perforations. Bind the seams with narrow strip of bias lawn or of seam binding that can be purchased ready for use. Turn up under the dress and tack into place at the shoulder seams. Finish the free edges of the collar with the scallops if you are using them or with your trimming material and arrange over the dress with the center backs and notches meeting. Underface both the collar and the dress with narrow strip of bias material, either scallop the front edges or trim them. Line the belt with the material and finish the edges either with the scallops or with trim ming, and slip it through the openings you have made for the purpose. Work huttonholes in the right front of the dress and work one button-hole in the right end of the belt. Lap the right side of the dress and of the belt over the left, the larger perforations exactly meeting.
