Homemade Emerr .ncy Case

A HOMEMADE case which contains
the things most necessary for first

A tin box is best for holding tho
hrst aid equipment. II a hinged box
such as certain brands of crackers
come in Is at hand, so much the
better. -
NO matter how small the box II
should contain some antiseptic gauze
carefully protected from dust and con.
tact with other substances. It can he

bought or in a sheet of waxed paper
There should also be a small package
OF absorbent cotton. likewise carefully
wrapped. A pair Of small. sharp scis..

ter to hold temporary bandages in
place completes this part Of the outfit.
There should be a bottle of some
antiseptic like peroxide of hydrogen.
These should. Of course, be carefully
corked. There are sold small rubber
cork protectors-a ring Of rubber to
go about the mouth Of the bottle and
a band Of rubber which spans the
cork-for a few cents apiece, and
these could be used to keep the stop.

A small jar of vaseline and a bottle
OF spirits of ammonia or some other
stimulant to use in case Of fantnes,

The vaseline is useful in case OF cuts

part OF the first aid box IL il is not
already crowded.
1t seems highly probable that dark
er colors will be popular in sweat
ers this spring and summer. Shades
of brown and gray have gone very
well at the winter resorts, and navy
blue and black sweaters sometimes
strikingly trimmed with white brush
ed wool or angora are looked upsa
with favor.

a deep decolletage. Tried out with a
bulkiness over the chest.
The fashion OF the hour permits the
back Of the bodice to be cut even deeper
than the front in order that ii may be
fatty filled in with layers Of silk net.
Be warned that certain weaves of tulle
are not TO be chosen for this work as
its stiffness will stand in the way Of
grace. The U-shape is not permitted in
the back. The letters are changed and
V is inserted.
One Of the fashions that prevail In
evening frocks and has been adopted
for wedding frocks is the carrying OF
the silk net over the opening in the
back Of the bodice as far as the line Of
the neck. Artists will tell any woman
that flesh is better veiled. which is
another bit OF ancient knowledge flched
from the orient Regard the woman
with her bare back exposed. more or
less modestly. in contrast with the wom-
an whose back is thinly veiled with net
and there is no question as TO the YER
dict for and against.
AS for sleeves, there Is no set arrange.
ment for their length or their style.
Tradition steps in to say that there
when the frock is worn in the day hours.
Beyond this there are no limitations set
upon the bride. She can choose what
ever is attractive or that for which her
heart yearns.

to fashionable living. came the noon
wedding. which is a law in Great Bri-
tain.
With the day wedding came the high
necked gown, and among the people
who are not governed by the climate.
the entire social fabric Of weddings
changed. 1t Is only in recent years that
the 5-o'clock wedding has returned and
been sponsored by those whose lead is
followed.
Unless one lives in the southern
states, therefore. the day Is the correct
time to be married. But the high
necked gown is not returned to fashion.
for the very good reason that we don't
wear it at any time. 1t is out Of the
reckoning.
There is SO deep a decolletage in some
OF the gowns for the fashionable spring
marriages that an onlooker might think
the evening hours were the proper set
ting, but by this time We have become
quite too familiar with revealed neck
and shoulders, in and out Of the sun.
light. to be led astray into thinking that
the hour limits the type Of gown.
The Renaissance neck lire, that oblong
which displays merely the line Of the
collarbone. may have had its day; it
appears infreQuently. giving place to tho
deep U-shaped decolletage that never
fails TO please.
1t is possible to cut the bodice almost
to the waist line since the fashion Ii re-
vived Of filing in half the space with
layers Of tulle or scanty touch Of thin
lace. This ancient method Of building
UP the opening OF a bodice has the merit
Of softness. 1t can only be done with

The long. downward falling wing
sleeves are out of the picture Of the
day for the reason that bodices are slim
and narrow This was the very reason
for the voluminous arm coverings Of the
other centuries Of England. especially In
Evening star., 1920-04-04

1t may be that none Of the first ladies'
Of the land would consider cloth Of gold
as possible now for a wedding gown,
but the fabric Is chosen by those who
like to buy that which takes the most
money. Many dress in such terms dur
ing these days Of revolution and evolu-
ton.
AS regards the acceptance Of this
fabric which was once kept for the fes-
tival days Of kings the counters are filed
with II and it 10 offered to whoever has
the price; and even the price Is not be-
yond the dreams and possibilities Of the
frock. So turns the wheel Of industry.
What once took months Of patient
plodding and skilled labor to produce Is
now turned out by whirring. fast-mov-
Ing machinery.
The voice Of wisdom, however, coun-
sells the bride to beware Of 1t. We are
not potential Catherine de Medicis.
Ivory satin has far more suitability. and
lace has far more grace. Rubies and
emeralds are not befitting the bride, no
matter what modern laws permit.
The bride who goes shopping to choose
her wedding gown should look well to
the lighting OF the room in which the
various satins are placed for her inspec-
ton. Dead white Is not good. ivory il
desirable: that old shade Of ivory that 10
given BY age is diflicult to get. but
thorough search should be made for It,
a. its charm is undeniabIe anI its su-
periority unQuestionabls.

Champion cheese of all varieties will
be shipped to the Eastern States ex-
position in Springfield, Mass, to take
a position of prominence in the Yer
mont state exhibit during the week
of Sept. 10 to %. Vermont takes pride
in the variety and quality of its cheese

the campaign for increased use of dairy
product.
Adjoining the dairy exhibit will be

that almost every manufacturer viii

hibition. and that every one win have
at least catalogues. Exhibits of farm
crops and fruit win be arranged to
represent Vermont as land of plenty,
Two great cornucopias, or horns of
plenty, will be shown pouring out i'm

and the whole will be surmounted by
the seal of the state, the flag of Yer

season will be a real Vermont sugar
house, showing the sugar in process Of
