Wv yHILE good lines and good ma

in achieving successful results
in fashions, one must not overlook the
Importance of color. Color 10 the first
thing which attracts or repels In a
costume. Perhaps 1t is safe to say
that it does more to make or unmake
the, wearer more than any other ele-
ment of her attire.
1t is impossible to lay down any
definite rules for the selection Of COL
ors. About the best way to solve the
question is to observe and experiment.
One should always aim to bring out
the best features and suhmerge the
less attractive ones, not only in choos-
ing color, but every other element that
goes to make complete outfit.
A clear. healthy complexion does not
require much study, for it looks well
in almost any setting. Pallor and sal
lowness calls for much consideration.
A pale complexion looks best against
a warm hue, but the color must not be
too dark, nor too intense. Dark blue
and warm brown are usually kind to
sailowness. Eyes, II clear and Of good

THE CHRISTMAS SEASON q
AMERICA.
(John McCartney.)

The Christmas season is the hap
piest season of the year. For several
weeks before, people look forward
with pleasure to Christmas. The
children wonder what they will get,
and thinking of the things they
would like and may get, show a very
angelic disposition at this time. The
wood box is always well filled and
the children never sass" for fear
that Santa Claus might hear.
This is a very busy time for the
housewife. She is making mince-
meat, fruitcake and all sorts of good
things for the Christmas dinner at
which there is usually company. She
also finds time to do good deal of
Christmas shopping, and the house is
soon full of mysterious bundles which
you are not supposed to see.
The house is soon decorated with
evergreen wreath and bells. Then
comes the work of setting up the
Christmas tree. This is a very del
icate job, as everybody has the best
idea of how to decorate it. Finally
it is hung with candles and all kinds
of decorations. Then the candles
are lighted, the tree is a beautiful
sight, which young and old alike en-
joy.
Then on Christmas eve, after the
children have been told a story Of
the King whose birthday they are
celebrating, and each has seen that the
fire is out, and that the chimney is
open, each hangs up the biggest
stocking that he can find and then
goes to bed. The children go to bed,
but find it hard to go to sleep. After
dreams of Santa Claus, they wake and
find that Christmas is here. Then
there is a wild rush toward the stock
ings. Each child finds what he
wanted. Willie is found seeing how
Jimmy's candy would feel between
his teeth. Tommy is trying his new
knife on the furniture. Relatives
and friends soon begin to arrive, and
there is a great exchange OF gifts.
Everybody is happy, even although
some one finds that he has received
a pair of No. IL slippers, and he only
wears an s. And some one else has
gotten a red necktie which does not
go we'll with his red hair. Then
comes the real business of the day.
which is eating the Christmas dinner.
After old and young gather in the par
lor and enjoy a reunion and good
time, all too soon is the day over and
everyone goes home we'll pleased
with Christmas.

CHRISTMAS.

"oh, dear. Christmas is almost
here and l haven't a gift for Helen,
and / know she will be sure to give
me something" This is the way
most people greet the coming of
Christmas They think 1t is time
for the giving of gifts only to those
who they are sure, will give them
something.
This is entirely wrong idea of the
spirit of Christmas. Christmas
should be a time of great rejoicing
and not a time when one should be
only thinking of what some one else
is going to give him.
When Christ was born in the man
ger at Bethlehem, the wise men came
and brought their gifts TO the small
babe Did they expect anything in
return, and did Christ only give gifts
to those who gave to Him? Did
Christ reject the small gifts? No!
He thought more about the spirit in
which the gift was given than He
did about the value of the gift. This
is the way we should feel in the Civ
ing of our gifts.

Nearly one whole side was filed
with Seniors who were there to root
for their team. But the Juniors were
minus quantity. OF course. there
we're few stragglers. There always
are. but the number of Juniors out to
see the game. looked mighty small
beside the Seniors.
The same thing happened at the

were the boys?
Nevertheless, we won both times
and that's all that really matters, only
in the future we hope the Juniors will
be out in full force.
