FRENCH LOOK TO v. S.
TO WIN THE WAR

Clearwater Sun: In letter to
Frank j. Booth, DR.. J. T. Bower
writes that, Paris is not the Paris
of old; almost all the streets are
dark az night, and you are even eau
toned to close your windows shades
in your hotel at night when you are
inside Rather lively in the daytime,
but evidences of war everywhere. Do
you know there were no flags fly
ing from buildings or any place in
Paris until the United States de-
clared war? 1t is true, and now the
French and United States flags fly
side by side from every window and
every building all over that great
city. And the people. My very tiny
United States flag in my buttonhOle
}nade a mark of me- Every one we
met almost whenever we went on
die street in Paris, turned and looked
at me and said simply 'Amerique,"
ana the same was true of every
American, too No small boy ever
looked to his father for protection
a'd help with greater faith than the
trench people look to America in
winning the war

Mrs. Frank d. Merriam received
Tuesday afternoon for her sister, Mrs
Arthur McClintock, of Denver. and
for Mrs. B. L. hartman of oklahoma
City. who is visiting her sister, Mrs.
Arthur l.. Nichols.
The affair was a garden party, Civ
en- on the grounds of the Merriam
home in Western avenue. The yard
is large and attractive with its shrubs
and blossoming plants. The buildings
were hung with flags, an immense
banner forming the background for
the lane of chairs where the serving
decorated in flowers of the national
colors red peoples, blue bachelor
buttons and white peonieS. COreopsis
and ragged robin were in baskets on
tables here and there on the lawn.
One of the tables was covered with a
cloth embroidered in a cross stitch
decoration that matched the basket of
flowers above it.
While a large representation of the
fashionable set attended the party, the
affair was nevertheless informal and
intended to be in keeping with the
spirit of the time. which tends to dis
courage formal and elaborate social
functions. Mrs. Merriam asked a
group of young girls to assist her, in
Guiding Miss Antoinette Clark, Miss
Katherine hartman of Oklahoma City,
and Miss Elizabeth Culver, who served
punch. and Miss Helen Louise Crosby,

net embroidered in blue dots. Her
bouquet was of roses. Mrs. McClin-
took wore grey Georgette crepe, edged
with blue. Mrs. Zartman's gown was
of white linen.

the skin. As a tan and
blemish remover, also to re-
move oiliness, freckles and
sallowness, lemon juice has no
rival. Massage it into the
face, neck, and arms once or
twice each day, and just see
if it doesn't bring out the
roses and hidden beauty
Lemons have always been
used to bleach the skin, but
pure lemon juice is too highly
acid, therefore irritating.
Try it, This sweetly frag-
rant lotion will speak for
itself. Any drug store or
toilet counter will supply the
three ounces of Orchard White
at very little cost, and the
grocer will supply the lemons.

Lemons for Complexion
Juice of two lemons made into creamy lotion can be
used to bleach, whiten and soften the skin.
Make quarter pint cheaplyl

The beauty lotion which is
becoming so popular through
out the country is easily pre-
pared by anyone, and a whole
quarter pint of it doesn t
cost any more than a small
jar of the common, ordinary
cold creams.
Add the juice of two fresh
lemons to three ounces of
Orchard White and shake well
in a bottle. Strain the lemon
juice two or three times
through a fine cloth SO no
pulp gets into the lotion, then
it will keep fresh for months.
Regardless of what price
you pay there is nothing
more meritorious in beautify-
ing, softening and clearing
