that he could materially increase his
business and his earning power by
purchasing a delivery motor truck
Money was little tight in the
Rheaume family. for the family had
just made a payment of $3.50 on the
home which 1t occupies.
Thereupon Mrs. Rheaume and her
thrift fund stepped into the breach.
Her $3.50 invested in War Savings
Stamps was ready and willing to meet
the emergency. Going to her post

notice for the redemption of the
Stamps. Mrs. Rheaume discovered that
by waiting a week or two she could
collect a whole months interest on
her investment. She waited. The
stamps, a ten-day demand security of

easily and readily redeemed, and the
Rheaume family thrift fund had 1usti-

and linen is being combined with eV-
erything, from serge to lace. There
Is much distinction in a pictured frock
Of eyelet embroidered linen combined
with plain white organdy and figured
net. The organdy IS used for the un-
derslip, for the turnover collar and
cuffs and for hens on the hip
pockets. Eyelet beading is used in u
striking trimming effect on the lace
tunc and not little part of the
smartness Is owing to the sashbow of
narrow black gros grain ribbon which
depends from the front of the waist
line There IS an originality about
this combination of linen, organdy
and net that makes the frock specially
distinctive. Usually when linen is
combined with organdy, the linen is
used as a trimming, in bands or pan

tune its airy summer character. Not

pansy-printed Georgette crepe. The
wearer is u dark haired, blue eyed
girl and the lavender tones will be
most becoming to her, especially when
she wears the pansy- printed frock with
| a pansy colored parasol and white
straw hat trimmed with pansies. Most
| of the frock is of printed Georgette
and the plain orchid colored organdy
is used for a deep hem on skirt and
sleeve and for a sash with picot edge
all around. Another frock of TINS
sort combines pink and white printed
Georgette and pink organdy and Will
be worn with a pink parasol, leghorn
hat trimmed with pink roses and white
buttoned footwear sufficiently for
NAL costume, you see, for a garden
fete or other occasion OF special sig
nificance. Organdy and silk is a
rather rare combination but it Is used
for formal afternoon frocks of the
fete sort. one such frock is pictured.
The extremely simple bodice and the
underskirt are of white organdy, the
full tunic falling almost to the skirt
hem, Is of white taffeta, gathered into
q sash of the same material Across
the center Of this tunic runs an Inset
band of tucked organdy, bordcred at
each edge with lace insertion; and
over the band OF organdy tucking runs
a garland of small pink roses made
of chiffon. Can you imagine a newer
or more alluring trimming for a sum
mer frock? And this trimming is all
the more arresting since 1t appears
nowhere else on the costume. 1t con-
trasts strikingly with the absolute
simplicity of the bodice, which is al
most tailored in its plainness, with
flat shawl collar crossed In surplice
style, and long sleeves neatly fitted and
buttoned above the wrist. There Is
an interesting detail about this bodice
which l wonder II you will notice;
the fastening as across from left 10
right instead of in the ordinary style
from right TO left. The flower
trimmed hat and rutiled parasol OF
silk In narrow black and white stripes
scattered over with pink roses. accord
with this frock which is q rather for
NAL affair. In the same picture Is
much simpler organdy dress, suitable
for morning or afternoon wear. 1t Is
made of embroidered organdy founc-
ing, the pattern bestowed cleverly In
skirt, sleeve and bodice. The tucked
vestee and deep hem are of plain or
CANDY and the frock is daintily
trimmed with narrow crochet lace
edging. The sash is of blue satin rib
bon and the straw hat Is trimmed with
blue cornflowers and white gardenias.

II does not seem as though there could
be a single idea left The handy
woman. with more or less initiative

evolving for herself stunning sport
headgear this season, so many and so
varied are the models set forth for her
inspiration.
The separate crowns are splendid

hat Is under consideration. one can
do almost anything with a hat brim
by adding TO 1t various sorts of crowns.
According to the size and height Of
the crown the brim will look larger
or smaller, straighter or more droop-
ing. All hats Just now settle far down
over the head and come to what the
milliners call "the eyebrow line" This
means that head-sizes are very large,
the head fitting up into the crown and
usually quite reaching its top so that
a pat of ones hand on the top of the
hat crowns are decidedly the thing
and they are made of all sorts of fab
RIGS, from knitted worsted to taffeta
silk. Some enterprising summer girls
are making several crowns for the
same hat, so that various costume ef
fects will be possible. For instance,
YOU have an ordinary, wide-brmmed
hat of milan or panama-that used
10 be called a sun-hat or a shade-hat;
but 1t Is now designated sport hat.
For wear with a skirt and blouse cos
tune and blue wool sweater the hat
may have a crown of knitted blue
wool and fiuted rosette of the wool
set at one side. with a pink and
white dimity afternoon frock the sport
nat will take on a crown made of
pink and white gros grain ribbons in
terlaced in basket design, and pink
or black velvet ribbon may be tied
around the base of this crown and
made into a careless bow across the
front. Still another crown may be of
white corded null, with a huge Alsa
tian bow of the null poised at the
front. There are many other ideas
along this line that will suggest them
