With fashions so publicly displayed
as they are in this country, the details
that add dollars to imported frocks
can be added in your own sewing-room
for few cents and few hours time.
So very few women seem to realize
this. Let your pattern establish the
general lines of your frock, the part
that requires fitting, and after that
break away from your paper pattern,
close the book, take trip to the shops
and keep your eyes open
You will find for instance that per-
fectly plain beige gabardine street
dress, exactly like that one cut out and
lying on your bed at home, is raised
to the three-hgure price mark by rows
Of silk braid applied pyramid fashion,
that is decreasing in length, across
the front Of the waist and skirt. and
is held on, not by machine stitches,
but by stitches of self-colored wool
Now isn't that simple? And II you
do not like the horizontal trimming.
supposing you are short and stout, try
putting on the bits of braid vertically
in the same way, or use a gold thread
to catch them down.
You will find out that braid is very
popular right now, and that instead of
taking your frock to be embroidered
as you had at first thought you can,
buy some of the cire, glossy braid for
it, or one of the newer moire braids, or
a bright silk and metal braid and use
It for facing the tuxedo collar. the
turned back points of your sleeves, the
ends of your sash.
It's Fringe Again.
All, they are using fringe again, you
will say. But look carefully. II is
not fringe by the yard, but fringe you
make yourself right on the garment,
by slip knotting into the material
strands of heavy floss. You can make IL
skirt length, falling in uneven lengths
and intervals from folded glrdle. OF

paper. as this rapidly softens the pulp.
Wrap the ice in the wax paper which
you take from loaves of bread or
cereal boxes. This will resist the
moisture and the ice will keep longer.
New Use for Gem Pans
Grease your gem pans and use them
when baking apples. 1t keeps the fruit
in much better shape. and they look
more appetizing when served.
As to BOudolr Caps.
Nearly everyone has received, at
some time or other, a number of
boudoir caps. Those who do not care
for so many caps, and yet would like
to use the pretty gifts, will find that
they make lovely bags large enough
for crocheting or small embroidery.
These bags are easily made by run
ming a drawing ribbon at the top or
open part of the cap and lining with a
pretty color, BY the addition of a
small mirror and powder pun they
make lovely vanity bags

you can make it only an inch long Row
after row of 1t might be a pretty way
to take the "plainness" of that navy
crepe you are making. Just draw the
fullness away from the hips bit and
make side panels of rows OF this hand
made fringe.
And so you will observe on your
sightseeing trips with your style eye
microscopically adjusted that you can
add dollars worth Of charm by using
contrasting material for sleeves. some
brilliant hued japanese silk attached
in flowing lines to deep kimon0
shoulder cap and bordering the ends
of the soft sash. or Of natural-colored
crash In deep bands on the short
sleeves of navy tricotine, the crash
silver-embroidered and edges frayed
into fringe Or you will realize the
value of lingerie touches for your new
street frock and add puffed sleeve
of gray net and Val. dyed gray to
match your navy frock.
Half Length Jackets.
You will find out that the new half
length jackets with which two-thirds
of the street frocks are supplemented
can be made in your own workroom,
and you will turn out instead of the
wool frock in one piece that you
usually wear the very different and
modish two-piece. the chemise frock
with skirt of wool and upper part of
foulard, the short cape-like or box
Jacket of the wool lined with the
foulard.
The uneven hem of the new skirts
will attract you and you will 60 home
and add a swinging panel or two to
the new frock that will hang below
the skirt, or you will cut the silk dress
in points and weight 1t with buttons.
You will find out that buttons, espe-
cially tiny pearl ones, can be used to
ornament like beads. and you will buy
several dozens OF these for the new

Now the trouble with home dress
making usually is that 1t looks 1t.
Many women who are good plain
sewers" can At we'll. finish well. and
follow a pattern perfectly. but when
it comes to originating they are done
for. Their results can usually be
traced to the pattern book from which
they were selected. They gain very
little by their labor except perhaps the
money saved. The creative mind that
can invent dress is rare. Then why
not be content in copying?

Fine Points of
the FrOCk

VI u "

HW%HERE are two big reasons why a
woman likes to make her own
clothes. One is tho saving of
money and hence stretching Of the
dress allowance in her budget toward
greater variety; the other is certain
individuality that she can thus gain
and express where ready-made clothes
would fail her. II woman can sew
we'll and has the time, she can dress
as we'll on a few hundred a year as
many women do on thousands. She
can select lines that suit her figure,
colors she likes and are becoming to
her, styles that express her person
ality. In other words, she can more
nearly approach that ideal of having
her clothes look as If they belonged to
her and to her alone,

APPEALING To STATES AND CITIES
 When President Harding makes his
 appeal to governors of states and may
 o-s of cities to do their best to SUD-
 port the policy set forth by the unem-
 noyment conference for the meeting of the idleness in the country at the pres
 ent time it is to be realized that that
 programme has not as yet been set
 forth. The conference Is in session and has not as yet told the president or
 tba country what it believes should be
 doce as the result of it's study of the
 situation.
 That will come in time and in the
 meantime it seems to be the purpose of
 the president to get the governors and the mayors busy considering the ways in
 which they can contribute to the relief
 of the situation. Wherever it is possible
 f. Is to be expected that relief meas ures will be undertaken without waiting
 for the conference report. Already
 many undertakings are underway di- rocied by state or mGnicipa heads and i- Is improbable that~the suggestion of
 f-red through the appeal of the presi- lent will be the means of starting other organized efforts in the same direction. Also knowing that the governors and
 mayors will be relied upon to lend themselves 10 the situation and SUD- u2~t the conference programme the ap- u0al made at this time permits them 10 ret things ready with such organization lis necessary to give speedy .ttentiUn D this important detail.

cused having been caught red-handed are demanding a trial by jury, which is of course within their rights, but which course is resorted to for the very purpose of clogging the courts and making it decidedly uncertain when their cases will be reached, if they ever are.
 Let it be understood that there is sufficient court machinery to handle the cases promptly and that obstacle to law enforcement will to a large degree be eliminated,
 Having referred the matter of relief to the court docket committee Attorney General Daugherty is told in it's report that the enforcement of dry and other laws depends upon increasing the ju- dietary. When there are 10000 cases pending in the southern district of New York alone it can be appreciated that more than ordinary measures need to be taken to deal with the situation Ciogging the courts with the prohibition cases means just that much more delay for the other business that ordinarily comes before the courts and the time to deal with it is before tho situation gets any worse.

Stories That Recall Others
The Purse in the Road


 He was taking a spin in his car late in the afternoon when he saw a plump leather purse lying between the wheel racks. Thrilled with the ancient pleasure of discovery he stopped the ear, climbed out and wondered who had dropped it and how many green or yellow crinkly bills it contained
 Not a soul was in sight as he walked back to the place where he spied it. AS he progressed he rubbed his eyes no purse was there Instead there was a trail through the dust indicating that it had been drawn diagonally across the roadway. The same moment he heard a broadside of gIeeful giggles in the jungle to the right
 He didn't pause but right about faced and climbed into the car with a broad smile He had been a boy himself once upon a time.
