For the unmarried girl, or the
young matron in her attractive thir-
ties, these models have been spe-
cially designed. There is much about
them which Is suggestive of youth,
and yet there is a seasoned dignity
about them also.
All make use of the ribbon idea
in their trimming treatment. Rib
bon or ribbon stimulated, the effect
Is always smart. Ribbon is, of course,
ono of the most popular trimming
ways Of the moment. The ways
suggested here are copied from no
source. They are original, and there

your scissors and needle and copy
the sketches in serge tricotine, duve-
tyn or satin to be the owner of a
distinctively modish dress.
OF serge, duvetyn or trtcotine the
first frock could attracttVely be
made. Simulated ribbons of self
material trim it with chic. One

loop over each hip to suggest that
popular bouffant hip effect OF the

School Yards Become
Sn0tS of Real ReaIIt\

The average rural school ground
can stand considerable identifying.
Some Of these barren spots, where
the young in the country learn
their three RS, are blossoming like
the rose and more will do SO as
a result Of the work done by county
home demonstration agents. Spring
and fall are the time for setting
out shrubbery and trees. Many
home economic workers celebrated
arbor day this spring. Some of
those who didn't are planning local
celebrations to be held this fall.
In Fairfax county, Va, the home
demonstration agent and the peo-
ple Of the neighborhood completely
transformed last spring the Red
Hill school yard. The teachers, with
the pupils and patrons, came early
on the day appointed, bringing with
them a splendid array of trees and
Shrubs, all given by the patronsJ
The foundations Of the building
were massed with hemlock, laurel,
holly, and rose bushes. Young trees
were planted in strategic positions
and lilac bushes were placed in
clumps. Around the drain, spicewood
bushes were planted. The result
was a complete transformation of
the formerly bare and ugly yard.
At noon a picnic lunch was served.

Fortune TeIIerS a Menace
To YOUnu Girls, Saws JUdue

Recent exposes in Milwaukee have
disclosed that many girls find their
way into the underworld through the
portals of the fortune teller. In the
Oriental splendor of the charlatan's
parlor their youthful imaginations
are fired to roma ntic dreams of blond
princes who shall carry them away in
Lochinvar style, and they are easily
duped into a life of shame by some
Substituted maquereau masquerading
as the fairy prince.
There is no doubt in my mind that
many girls are being led astray and
into temptations which never would
have come to them but for tales told
by fortune tellers," Judge A. C. Back
us of Milwaukee declared recently.
1.-THE fact that these seresses are
filling the minds of young girls with
trash about sweethearts to be met,
presents a new and serious situa-
ton. Every fortune teller known to
be making living in this manner
shall be dealt with under the law"
AS a result there have been several
arrests Of soothsayers in the Wis
consin city, and the police department
is closing fortune telling booths
throughout the city.
