Mrs. Judtha Blackburn Will Tell of Kind
of Frocks to Wear

Making party gown in twenty min
utes. out of four yards of uncut ma
terial sounds vastly improbable. not
withstanding the fact the party gowns
nowadays are rather bold in their ex-
.posure. but Mrs. Juditha Blackburn,
noted author. lecturer and teacher, is
going to impart the secret to the wom-
en- of Topeka and prove it to them as
well by building frccks before their
eyes as she talks, in her lectures to be
given in Warren NJ. Crosby's at 2:45
o'clock next Thursday, Friday and Sat-

Not only is she going to explain
how to make frocks. but she will di-

exact replica of her own figure.
The dress form which is an

made from gummed tape pasted on a
tight fitting ladies' vest.

it is that 1 seem to have to call down

at it in a scientific manner and apply
a bit of psychology to tho job.
THE trouble with the American
woman in regard to her clothes is that
she wears what some one tells her is
the style, whether it is her style or
not; women should study themselves
and select only those styles which re-
fleets their own individuality and
personality, which is the true style
for them" said Mrs. Blackburn. And
she further states: French women
of culture are not extreme; they are
far more conservative in their dressing
than the American. Extreme short
skirts are worn only by the class OF
women who frequent the cabarets. and
the aristocratic French woman will not
wear a thin Georgette crepe blouse
without a wrap on the street. which
sounds like excessive modesty to us
in America"
Mrs. Blackburn will also give four
weeks course in dressmaking and tall
oring at the Warren NJ. Crosby store.

EAT MANY STRAWBERRIES
Topekans Consume Three Carloads
Each Week, Says Report From
Transportation Companies.

Topekans eat some three carloads of
Strawberries a week--in pie, in short
cake. with cream. on the half shell,
and au naturel-and the item of trans
porting the luscious fruit from the
southern fields where it is produced,
is one that means something to the
transportation companies
Most of the berries are now coming
in by freight, from the fields of south
ern Missouri. The first Strawberries
to reach Topeka came by express from
the fields of Louisiana and Mississippi.
The berries now on the market, ac-
cording to consumers, are of better
quality than the first run. and the inn
porters are having to pay more for
them in the field.
