open, for comfort. One Of the main
troubles with the high neck edge.

This is why the woman who knows

Of little French protection scarf"
used quite widely some years ago. The
difference is that in its original form
this pretty accessory was not supposed
TO be visible, except at the neck edge,
while now the ends Of il show dainty
adornment in any OF half dozen diff
ferent styles, and offer a chance for
original devices.
The scarf itself IS made from fine
white or cream-colored washable net,
double. and with ends gathered in and
finished with a 'puckered' rosette or
a stuffed ball" or with a combina-

PINE KNOT PHILOSOPHY
BY S. l. FRISBIE.
resorts ANp REsoRTERs.

~ EOPLE who frequent resorts per-
suade themselves that they go
either for health or pleasure.
But that is not the real incentive.
1t is not the excellence Of the doc
tors nor the curative powers of the
healing springs which forms the chief
attraction of the health resort.
Nor is the magnet which draws to
sea shore or mountain to be found IN
the golf links. the fishing. the bathing,
the motoring or the climbing.
These are mere incidents of the trip;
trivial details which pass unnoted.
The dominant factor, the irresistible
charm which impels, is the opportun-
ity afforded for gossip.
Not that resorts hold any monopoly
on gossip. Far be 1t from me TO i'm
ply any lack OF opportunity in towns
lacking resort distinction. But the OPP
portunity is multiplied, magniied. &C
centuated, by the mere possession of 4
resort reputation.
AT home. the business man must
devote some share OF his time TO
breadwinning. Even the housewife,
however systematized may be her
plans, however trained her servants,
must devote some share Of her time
to supervision.
At the resort. all this is changed.
Everything is ordered by those who
serve-and are paid for the serving.
To the resorter is left nothing but
to create gossip or gossip about those
who create.
Women sit about and rock and seek
things to say about the men-not
overlooking their absent sisters as
possible co-partners in the evil deeds
OF men.
And the men lounge about RECALLING
themselves with the doings of their
wives-and other mems wives. Par
ticularly, other mems wives.
Take gossip-and the opportunity
for gossip-away from the most not
ed resort. and you would kill that re-
sort in a single season.
