ROCKS for after Easter festivi-
II ties grow prettier and prettier.
The soft materials, offset by
glittering trimmings or. hand en-
broidery. are essentially feminine,
and at Oppenheim, Collins e. Co..
Chestnut and 18th streets, there are
exquisite examples. A flowered tur-
quoise Georgette is draped bouffant
on one side, plain on the other, with
panel down the back. This and the
blouse are elaborately beaded with
opalescent bugles, while turquoise
and pastel pink satin girdle, with
long streamers, give the finishing
touch. A white net gown has 20
inch band back and front of heavily
hand-embroidered batiste, seen again
under the net of the bodice Tucked
net sides, touches of real filet and a
one-inch picot ribbon tied loosely
around the waist, finish this simple
(?) creation.
IF YOU could see photograph,
as I did recently, of Grand
- mothers Mill" in Virginia, pic
turesquely perched on the edge Of
placid stream, overshadowed by
low-hanging trees. the whole atmos-
phere of the spot bespeaking un-
Tuffled calm aud placid tranquility,
you could more readily understand
why the good old-fashioned coarse
"ellow and white Virginia Corn Meal
at E. Bradford Clarke Company, 1920
Chestnut street, is so far superior to
any milled in other sections, for
haste in grinding it between heavy
mechanical rollers is what destroys
its nutrition, properties. Down in
Dixie Land, time being no object, the
grinding is done by water power, by
slow turning buhr stones, and the
result is just the right corn meal for
delicious corn bread, mullins, griddle
cakes and old-timey Virginia "spoon
bread"

it any wonder their customers come
