For Miss II to 20

Duvetyne dresses are one
of the ultra fashions-one
generally quite costly, be-
cause the material is made
of silks and wool, or all
silk.
Now, fine qualities of
wool velours look very
much like duvetyne - and
do not cost nearly as much.
Approaching this fact, we
selected wool velours in the
tones favored in duvetyne
beaver, brown, navy blue.
Then we selected models
of the same type that Fash
ion created for her duve-
tyne frocks and had them
reproduced in wool velours.
Prices are moderate

A silvertone model that sug-

introducing
PTeRRGCCGS
The new corSetette

1 ne new COISetette
All Paris is wearing a
little corsetette this Fall
so, of course, we take
pleasure in introducing this
Paris fad to New York.
The little corsetettes are
mere mercerized elastic
bands-worn across the
hips. They have a little
satin bound lacsd-up open
. ing in front and a strip of
satin to reinforce the gar
ters on the side. They are
pulled on" by means Of
strong satin straps-very
much as one pulls on a
pair of riding boots.
Ideal for active women
For all outdoors sports
riding, tennis, golf, walk
ing, the corsetette will be
very comfortable-just the
thing to dance in, too.
For every woman
At first glance one is apt
to think "they are only for
slender fgures"-but on re-
Election one decides that
every woman should have
one in her wardrobe-be-
cause there are times when
a boned corset is a burden
and yet one wants a SEM
blance of a corset.
We are charmed with our
new corsetettes and believe
you will be too.
Pierrettes are priced
$3.50, $40, SIS and $3.50.

"That is Bird Island
Over There

UUef mere
and the birds are protected by
the U. S. Government" said
the Florida gentleman.
The person to whom he was
speaking, asks if the Govern
ment puts their food in their
nests for them, and the reply is,
ooh, no, there is plenty of feed
provided for them, but they
have to 60 after it and find it
for themselves. Look, there,
see that flock of hundreds of
wild ducks; they are on their
way now to the feeding grounds
for their breakfast, and you will
see scores of them dashing
down and snatching fish from
the sea. Some birds have hol-
low bones and downy feathers
and are able to float even in a
stormy ocean and find food.
Every living thing, man in
cluded, finds the earth and sea
are each a granary and store
house with abundance for every
creature, but each living thing
must GO after the food and not
wait for some other to put it in
its nest.
Man was made to be active
and earn his food by the sweat
of his brow, for his self respect
and health as we'll, and birds
can be trained and made wise
enough to conduct postal ser
vice, or to be purveyors of food
to a discouraged man as in the
case of Elijah, and man is en-
Joined not to disturb their nests
where their little children, are

It is a decree that there is
plenty for all our needs, but we

obtain supplies.
