buy some needed groceries.
The matron had insisted on sit

TO which the driver agreed heartily,
and at which Elizabeth demurred.
But the will of the son and his

After Mrs. Chapin's shopping had
been completed. Clifford drove the
car around to the postoffice and
brought the maiIsout and handed it
to Elizabeth.
Later, Elizabeth took advantage
of his absence in a cigar store,
where he had gone to secure what
he termed some smokes" to read
her letter slowly and thoughtfully.
As the man returned and took his
seat beside her, she slipped the let

turning to Puss.

Puss waved his weapon at them as
he slipped out of the doorway.
"Come with me, little parrot" he
said. you and will be comrades"
and he picked the little bird up
and placed her upon his shoulder,
and then off he went in the dark

tree and the little parrot perched
herself on a limb, and there they
slept till morning came. And, oh,

nothing to eat except some herbs

From Good

July
By Rita Stuyvesant.

- ALICO has been revived and
made up into lovely summer
frocks that defeat the heat
Indeed. they remind you of
the quaint little pinafores you wore
when your hair wac done up in
"pig-tails." But these days, the
homely calico does not cost 3 to 5
cents per yard, although 1t is quite
reasonable. considering the high
cost OF everything.
1t is interesting to note the
lovely frocks the shops are show
ing, made from calico. and so ex-
pensive. too. But il you copy them
yourself. you can do so at a small
cost. The new calicoes are not as
thick and hot as were those of
years ago, and they are quite as
serviceable. They launder ex-
Quisitely. and do not fade in the
sun
A good-looking calico gown"
was worn as a porch dress in the
country and was very smart The
blouse was cut with a tiny bit OF
fullness at the shoulders and was
otherwise plain, opening in the
front. White calico with Dutch
blue figures was chosen for the ma
terial, and there was a striking roll
collar of Dutch blue linen cut with
deep points in the front. There
were pretty deep cuffs also of the
blue linen with the sleeves gathered
into them a little below the elbow,
A tunic model was chosen for the
skirt. The underskirt was quite
brief about the ankles, although
not so narrow as to be uncomfort-
able. For conservation, the upper
part (where it did not show was
made of soft. white muslin. Over
this foundation there was a tunic
seven-eighths length and finished
with a deep cuff. piped in blue linen.
This was quite full. measuring
a little over two yards at the cuff"
and was gathered in at the waist.
A novelty giTdle finished the
dress. 1t was cut from the calico
and was about four inches wide. To
match the skirt, the girdle was also
pIped with the blue linen, but was
slit in front, with one end pulled
through the opening. Large fiat
pearl buttons, three on each side,
closed the girdle. For morning
wear the calico frocks bid fair to
hold first place in the war ward
robe.

up in this style and trimmed with

In Business,
r HAVE heard of the only occu-
pation-outside of homework
where mothers can keep their
= children with them. 1t grew out
of a charitable endeavor, and al
though it is still in the experiment
tai stage. SO many splendid results
have already materialized that 1t Is
worth telling about
a year ago the women's organiza-
ton providing summer outings for
mothers and their children tried a
plan for giving them whole sum-
mer outdoors in a self-supporting
manner. The women were of the
immigrant class, many of them
having been brought up in the coun-
try, loving ii, and yearning for At
keenlY in the combining atmosphere
of city life.
The women'S organization called
a meeting of these mothers. Would
they go out to the country for the
summer to work outdoors? The Job
was easy-simply to pick berries.
They could take their children with
them, of course. The children would
be well cared for, and the mothers
could be with them during part Of
the day as well as at night
A group OF mothers enthusiastically
accepted. So up to the berry district
they went with their children. The
farmers with whom the women's
organization had made the arrange
ment eagerly accepted this help and
paid the women fair wages. But, Of
course, their living arrangements
had to be considered
H. To-
the initial outlay of bedding, cook
ing utensils, and so forth Then
they arranged that the little COM
munity should be entirely self-de-
pendent
So each week several women took
turns at the household tasks OF
caring for the Notwithstanding,
cleaning, attending to the children
while the others were in the nelds
picking berries. Those who stayed
at home in this way were paid ex-
actly the same as the berry pickers,
SO that there was never any feeling
of jealousy or dissatisfaction.
OF course, like other community
experiments, there were trials and
tribuIations even to this ideal
scheme. There were dislikes and
Disbursements among SOME of the
women: there was occasional criti-
cism OF the plan, as there always is
even OF the most ideal conditions.
Nevertheless, the women as
whole improved greatly in health
and good spirits, almost all of them
gained weight and color, and the
benefit to the tiny toddlers was in
calcuIable. The loneliness and
wholesomeness of an entire summer
in the country for the city child
was alone worth all the EFFORT Of
the plan.
And the proof OF the success is
that before the next summer began
the same group OF mothers ap-
preached this, women's organiza-
ton, asking and hoping that they
could repeat the plan the ensuing
season. All the petty trials of the
previous summer were completely
forgotten.
They remembered only how beau
tiful had been the work outdoors
after the stuffy winter in the city:
Row they had gained in health, and
how splendid an improvement 1t
had meant for the children
So they are at il again this sum-
mer-having a healthy job outdoors.
