every reason to predict success for it.

There are those who insist that the
greatest and most interesting of all
fashion parades is that which comes
to pass annually at Palm Beach. Their
basis of comparison may not include
all the worlds fashion centers, but no
n will dispute the supremacy of
Palm Beach In America-unless some
loyal New Yorker makes so bold. This
display of the best of everything In APP
parel is interesting to everyone who
wants to know what the coming spring
has In store for Us. There are many
visitors who go there expressly to see
which way the wind blows-in fash

FINE AT BREAKFAST
FOUR DISHES, ALL OF UNouEs-
TONED MERIT.
Require Care in Their Preparation and
Baking, but Are Well Worth the
Time and Trouble Devoted
to Them.

There are two tests to put to break
fast breads. One is put by the cook.
and that has to do with the time and
trouble required in their preparation.
The other has t do with flavor and
texture, and that comes from those
who eat them.
Always let breakfast breads cool
slightly On a cloth or wire rack before
sending to the table. They will then
be more digestible and more easily han
died than If sent to the table literally
piping hot.
Heat all muffin tins before putting in
the muffin mixture. The mullins rise
more thoroughly and more quickly
when put into hot tins. Remember,
too, that most mullins need n quick
oven. Popovers need a quick oven, but
they also need long and thorough cook
ing, and some popoyer cooks let them
stay in the over 40 minutes.
Popovers.-Popovers robbers caves
or wheat puts, as they are ~variuusly
called, are not difficult to make. The
ingredients needed are two unbeaten
eggs, W. cupfuls of milk and two cup
fulS of flour, with a quarter of a tea
spoonful of salt. Beat all thoroughly
together until not a lump remains and
then pour the mixture into very hot
muffin pans, well creased, filling them
about half full. Cook thoroughly, IN
til one broken open is hollow inside
and shows a firm wall or crust.
Emergency Biscuit.-Make a good
baking powder biscuit dough and drop
1t, by %spOOnfuls, into well-greased muf-
fin pans. These biscuits are crusty lit
tie things, especially delicious if you
have the continental habit of serving
honey or jam at breakfast. A good
;ule for the dough is this Mix six even
teaspOonfuls of baking powder and one
of salt with three cupfulS of flour.
Sift all together three times and then
chop in, with a silver knife, six table
%spOOnfuls of butter, lard or some other
shortening agent. Mix together quick
ly with Il knife and add Il cupful Of
cold water. Mix lightly and her put
in the creased pans from a spoon.
Rice Muffins.-Rice mullins are made
of Il cupful of boiled rice, two eggs,
two cupfuls of flour, a tablespoonful of
melted butter, three cupfuls of milk
and salt to taste. Mix the eggs. butter
and milk, sift -four and salt and add it
and the rice to the wet ingredients.
Bake the mullins quickly.
Rye Gems,-Rye is not in as general
use as corn and wheat and graham
flour. Rye gems and rye bread are
nOurishing and economical and rye
gems made according to the following
rule are a good addition to any break.
fast: Beat three eggs, three cupfuls
of milk, a tablespoonful of sugar and
the same amount of butter, with three
cupfuls of rye -four. The secret OF
making these mullins lies in beating
them hard and baking them quickly.

plain. Chinese colorings and motifs
are popular, and many hats are trim
med with Indian beads of wood in
many bright colors-so far apart are
our sources of inspiration.
The hat at the center of the group
has a noticeable crown, wider at the
top and bottom than at the center. In
passing, it is worth mentioning that
crowns tend to height. This shape is
covered with cornfiower blue silk hav-
ing stripes or gay cClors. There is a
fitted collar of black satin about the
crown and a cockade of narrow black
ribbon at the front.
The hat at the right is a similar
model made of grass-green braid and
70 San silk, which it almost goes with
out saying is gayly colOred. There is
a bow of narrow green ribbon at the
front.

has come into the field as q permanent
factor, and an increasing one. When
given a chance he has shown his will
lingness to organize with the Anglo
Saxon, and to take all the responsible
tiles and consequences of organization.
Labor leaders claim that wal between
the United States and Mexico at the
time of the CarriZal clash last summer
was averted through the influence of
Mexican and American trade union
lists. They understood each other be-
aus Of their industrial association.
In the one hesitant and reluctant step
taken here enthusiasts may see an
augury of better relations, between the
IL ,OOO,OOO of American Negroes and
S9,OOO,OOO American whites.
In the same session at which the la
Dor delegates were Offering this prom
Use of peace at home the executive
council presented Il recommendation
that new efforts be made to influence
the conditions of future peace abroad.
In a special report on international la
Dor relations it told of the breaking
uONh VI lle l"nJeTluliOlul eueTullOu
,of Trade unions, through the secession
of the British, French and Belgians.
The American movement, in the opin-
ion of the council, should persist in its
effort to have Il world congress of la
Dor meet at the time and in the city
where the peace congress of the ma
tons shall assemble at the close of the
war. 1t urges that only the influence
of the organized workers of the ma
tons, eXerted upon the diplomats at
that time, can assure the world a
peace founded upon justice.
1--WE are keenly conscious that insti-
tutiOns and regulations alone are not
sufficient" says the report. Back of
them must be an international mind
and conscience educated to demand
the characterization and humanization
of our common affairs. The labor
movements of all countries have con
tributed much to the will for peace
and justice, and must do their part in
the development of the agencies by
which their will can be expressed"
Tentative suggestions for a league
TO enforce peace by both military and
economic power are put forth by the
report. 1t holds that the fight against
militarism must be made within each
country by its own people.

used. 1t is of oyster-white, with disks
scattered over its surface, each disk
showing stripes of black, white and
colors in irregular widths.
The logical choice in sweater coats
to be worn with this skirt will be in
oyster-white, either in silk jersey or
in the same material as the skirt. In
nearly all the new suits, sweater-coats
in plain colOrs accompany skirts in the
same color, but striped or figured, like
that in the picture.
The blouse shown is of fine white
batiste, covered with narrow tucks. A
frill about the wrists and at the edges
of the fichu make the right kind of fin
ish for it. The skirt has a very narrow
frill at the top. In lieu of a girdle, a
heavy silk cord in black and white is u
happy thought.

"The Negro farmers of northern
Louisiana and Mississippi are so pros
porous they are all buying automo-
biles," said Governor Blanchard Of
Louisiana. 'Twenty-cent cotton has
found the farmers in that section with
plenty of cotton. A great deal Of it is
this years crop, and a lot is left over
from last year.. So when the price was
right the Negroes, as well as the white
cotton growers, suddenly found them
selves in the most prosperous condi-
ton they had been in for years. As
a result the automobile dealers of
northern Louisiana and Mississippi
cannot supply the demand.

citizens of this state and nation to see
that we do not become a burden upon

educationally. We have done fairly
well on the whole with respect to
these things, but could do a great deal
better as the record shows.
The only way that we shall ever be
able to change this condition of affairs
is by a campaign of education on the
part of rural teachers, especially among
the parents, pointing out to them the
folly of taking the child from school
because perhaps he can be of material
value in terms of dollars and cents
when as a matter of fact his future is
Of infinitely more value provided he
