HAWAIIANS GIVE LARGE DONATION
 TO RELIEF FUND

New York.-The plight of the shiv- 'ering, starving children of Central Europe has so appealed to the people of sunny Hawaii that they have do- mated $32. to the European Relief Fund to help fed them A cab1egram announcing the amount of the island CTS was sent by Alfred Castle. who was appointed chairman for Hawaii by Governor J. Mccarthy, at the headouarters of the Relief Council No. 42 Broadway.
 If the rest of the country responded with the generosity of the Hawaiians there would be no question as to the raising of the $33, 3,000,000 required to feed the three and one-half million children in Central Europe who are dependent upon America for even one meal of stew, black bread and, cocoa a day. For the population of Hawaii is but a trifte in excess of 255 1000, more than three-quarters of whom are Japanese, Chinese or native, mak- ing. the per capita donations Of the resid efltS most substantial.

 His voice didn't seem to belong to the dejected-looking figure in a, shab- by army overcoat I had seen sinking up the avenue some days ago. And yet something made me put my hand self-consclously to my turban- And a parade of clothes labelled Mine hun dred and fifty dollars seemed to dash across the mouthpiece.
 "Oh, I'm so glad to hear your voice, lad. was all that came from me.
 Well, I want you to hear it al closer range replied Neal s'It's just one-thirty. Have you lunched? No? All rigft. Meet me at the CHnsarge in fifteen minutes.''

 Of course. under no circumstances. started back to Virginia feeling al- most panicky as had been on my way to the telephone. She had spent the whole morning with me. bargain ing for values, giving her whole at tention to me and my needs. And now at this tardy hour I was leaving her to a, lonely luncheon, pet aver SIOn OI tll women l wondered If she would come with me, and if I ought to ask her.
 Then Virginia. slim, distinguished even in srniple blue serge and ribbon trimmed turban, came toward me across the floor.
 tIt was all right wasn't 1t, Anne9.' she asked with a further show of the real Sisterly interest she had been evincing all along-the sisterly inter est I was always afraid might turn out to be a, thistled down.
 ''It was Neal.''
 Neal? Then something is wrong?''

 Then you run right along, Anne. I'll have a. bite at the Clinsarge and be ready to meet Phoebe at 3. I'm helping her with some dresses

There is nothing new under the sun-or so the sages tell us-and this may be one of the reasons why, when Madame La Mode strikes upon a fea- ture that meets with favor she con- tnues to stress it long after the time, when by all the rules of the sartorial game it should have been gone and forgotten. Perhaps she becomes wee bit weary of the advancing and receding waves of fashion that raise to the crest of success a certain style carry it under in it's backward wash only to once more dash it upon the sartorial shores for another brief period of popularity.
 This continuing popularity is the good luck that has fallen to the lot of the slim silhouette. Spring will see it cutie as great favOrite as diG autumn and winter and for madam c of the slender figure this is gooC news indeed. There is no other type that to her could be more becoming. Par

 You can do your skin an enormous amount of good by rubbing it every day with @ little ice. As the ice is drying, you should precede the rub by a massage with cold cream. There are times during the summer, how ever, when the skin will be a little too oily and in that case you can rub the face with ice and not bother I about the massage.
 It is really amazing how a five OF ten-minute ice rub a day will reJu- venate the complexion. The skin !. should be thoroughly c1eansed first i with soap and water and then a little cold cream should be rubbed in and wiped off with a soft cloth. Then tn i! ice massage should follow. It will /. smooth out wrinkles. close up coarse pores, bring blood to the face, harden ! weakened muscles. It will make your : skin soft and fine and glowing. If you have a double chin, you can massage off most of the superfluous flesh by rubbing with ice, without, however the preceding cold cream massage.

ticularly in the case of the spring tailleur is she not only willing but anxious that it follow lines that are straight and narrow.
 One thing that it is safe to say is is almost if not quite a foregone con clusion the skirts of spring. whether they be for, sports wear or intended for more formal occasions are to be short-another fact that rejoices not alone the heart of youth but every woman who cares for comfort and chic-and is there any one of the fair sex who does not? Grandmother en- joys freedom of foot and ankle every whit as much as her youngest grand daughter. Yet-and one wonders if this is a compromise with conserVa- tisn-the coats to wear with these short skirts may be as long as their fair wearer likes them.

skirt combination. If you should hold any doubts upon the subject just cast a. glance at the first suit that is illustrated above. You may have been inclined to scof but you will end by admiring the severe simplicity of the broadc1oth suit and it's slimness accentuated by the edging of braid and the almost-full-length coat. To complete the smart costume the satin hat is best, it's brim cut at either side stimulating either Intentionally or otherwise wings.
 Perhaps had mere male the choos- imp of it he would choose the second suit. This is developed in that softest of weaves, camePs hair cloth and is bound with leather and is altogether typical of the suits of spring. Lest it lack character all it's own; however, it has been given a collar-attached but detachable if one so desires, of the same fabric and collar that conceals very well it's real nature under the guise of a scarf.

Virginia dared argue with the elab- crate and elegant Miss Emily, who smelled of expensive scent and

 'I'n wear the henna hat I think, ' I ventured.

PROTEST AGAINST
 CARDINALS EDICT

Paris.-Cardinal Dubois recent edict against dancing and modern dress in France has brought forth loud protests from leading dressmak- CTS. Among these Paul Poiret, one of the leaders of French fashions, is bitter against the Archbishop of Paris M. Poiret considers that de- cency in dress is a. matter of inter pretation and latitude. He admits that nothing which is exaggerated is harm monious but when Cardinal Du- bois says that dresses are too rich Paul Poiret replies that church off, cers have always liked luxurious gowns1 for their own uses. He re- calls that in times gone by priests wore richly embroidered gowns in gold and silver. He even cites those who wore silk stockings and furs and seriously asserts they did not wear such dresses for comfort. M Poiret admits, however, that the decolletes Parisiennes favor so much are often too exaggerated.
 He further points out that if Car dinal Dubois edict was to be taken seriously by Frenchwomen and if they gave up their stylish dresses some 400, 1000 women employed in the d1-essmalzing trade would soon be out of work;

 Never mind what you cali your pride. It is not of any importance.
