Writes on the Boys In Blue

Dear Cynthia--I would like to say a
few words in favor of the boys in blue.
Al one who has neither near or dis
tant relatives in the navy, l must say
that the boys have met have been per
feet gentlemen in every respect. and /
have been with quite few. A few weeks
ago I read n letter in a paper where
there were two girls riding on a car,
and two sailors tried to get in converse :
tion with them. And they felt very much
embarrassed over the fact. Well l
wouldn't be afraid to bet that they
started it and then were afraid to finish
it when the sailors took them up. Wen
I for one will always have for friend
boy in blue If / can.
TRUE BLUE NEVER FADES.

Ideas for Costume

| To the Editor Of wonon's PAGE:
Dear Madam am president OF a
group of ten girls. Ny club is a branch
Of large organization. The organisa-
ton is giving a masque ball March 81.
The various clubs are working for
prizes. I would appreciate greatly IL
YOU would give me a few suggestions
Cor costumes which could be worked out
in so short a time and as inexpensive
as nossible. II. s.
A number of the February style books
have patterns for costumes--have you
seen any Of them?
One Of the easiest costumes to get up
in a hurry Is that of the French midi
nette, or sewing girl. All you need is
fowered summer dress, made very
full in the skirt, with short sleeves and
low neck. Then wear ruffied fchu.
deep rufles at the end Of the sleeves and
dainty Trilby apron. Wear high !.
heeled slippers and leghorn hat, tied
on with ribbon and fantastically trim
med with big flowers.
The Carmen costume is also easy,
consisting of a full gathered skirt OF
bright color, q white waist and q fringed
shawl that goes over one shoulder and
under the other. The hair is worn high
with fancy combs, and earrings. brace
lets and necklaces are necessary parts
Of the costume.
The midnight costume is pretty. This
requires a black dress, preferably OF
tulle or something light and soft. but
cheesecloth would do. Black wing :.
like sleeves cover even the hands. and
black slippers and stockings are worn.
A black veil covers the head and forms
n haremlike mask. Silver stars, cut out
of silver paper, are the only adornment.
and they are scattered here and there
over the costume.
A pirate maid wears a simple waist
and skirt, with a leather belt and a
ierchief about her neck. Her skirt
is torn and slashed into picturesque
ribbons, and her sleeves are all in points
at the ends. A bright kerchief binds
her hair, and she wears bangles ant
many rings.
Then there are flowers, Mother Goose
characters and old fashioned costumes
that are all pretty, but require more
preparation than these. hope thes'
suggestions will be helpful.

 To this meeting Mayor Wilson has invited the general public, with a view to effecting a settlement that will be just and satisfactory to all interests involved.

 Bus owners, according to their spokesman, are satisfied to have their trolley cars do not run, providing, no restriction is placed on their use of parallel streets.

They were more interested n the question of what this state plan Ileu to uO 10 assure us women the franchise, but it is expected that some form of celebration will be arranged for the future.
 As soon as Governor Holcomb re- ceives from Secretary of State Col by official notification that the fed eral suffrage amendment has been ratified by the required number of states he will consider the advisa- hilfty for, and need of, a special ses- sion"
