brimmed hat at the top, of silk-fiber
braid, is faced with crepe de chine and
trimmed with a series Of bows gradu-
ated in size, with loops of faille ribbon
that stand up about the crown and 9th
ers that lie fiat on the brim. 1t is be-
coming shape and a practical hat de-
veloped in the softest colors Of a
colorful season. Below it is model
that will look particularly well with
the new plain tailored suits of home
spun and tweed in spring colors. 1t
is a body hat of straw with sash of
crepe having a heavy rib. The brim
edge is bound with this crepe.
The small hat with beehive crown
in two tiers, is among the most wear
able Of many becoming shapes. It is
made of lustrous braid and its mar
row dropping brim is faced with crepe.

there are dainty Bingham waists and
those Of esponge that made an earlier
entry.
The tuck-in and short, over-the-skirt
styles almost monopolize the displays.
A few longer houses are suggestive Of
the MILDLY, from all of which it may be
gathered that blouses are merely an
obligato to the spring song of suits.
Many of them are quite strictly tailored
and among the most pleasing are the
pastel-colored linens with white bind
ings and sequences of white pearl or
Undiscovered buttons. This button
decoration appears on silk blouses
also.
Two silk crepe blouses are shown
here, one Of them at the left combin-
ing crepe de chine in the body Of the
blouse with georgette sleeves. Mar

THE FIRST KISS.

Synopsis.-Wi his grandfather,
small Ramsey Milholland Is watch
ing the Decoration Day Parade"
in the home town. The old gentle
man, a veteran of the Civil war,
endeavors to impress the young
ster with the significance Of the
great conflict, and many years aft
erward the boy was to remember
his words with startling vividness.
In the schoolroom, few years
afterward, Ramsey is not distin-
guished for remarkable ability,
though his pronounced disiikes are
arithmetic, ''Recitations" and Ger
man. In sharp contrast to RAM
sey's backwardness is the precocity
Of little Dora Yocum, young lady
whom in his bitterness he denomi-
mates Teachers Pet" In high
school, where he and Dora are
classmates, Ramsey continues to
feel that the girl delights to mani
fest her superiority, and the vim
dictiveness he generates becomes
alarming, eliminating in the reso-
luton that some day he will
show her. At a class picnic Ram
sey is captured bag and baggage
by Milla Rust, the class beauty,
and endures the agonies of his first
love. Ramsey's parents object to
Milla and wish he'd taken up with
Dora Yocum.

said she was his forever.
Suddenly he was seized with hor-
ror of her.
Moisture broke out heavily upon
him; he felt a definite sickness, and,
wishing for death, went forth upon the
streets to walk and walk. He cared
not whittier, so that his feet took him
in my direction away from Milla,
since they were unable to take him
away from himself-of whom he had
as great horror. Her loving face was
continually before him, and its sweet
ness made his flesh creep. Milla had
been too sweet.
When he met or passed people, 1t
seemed to him that perhaps they were
able to recognize upon him somewhere
the marks Of his low quality.
"Softy! Ole sloppy fool" he NUT
tered, addressing himself. "Slushy
ole mush! Spo0ner!" And
he added, "Yours forever, kiddo"
Commissions seemed about to seize
him.
Turning corner with his head
down, he almost charged into Dora
Yocum. She was homeward bound
from a piano lesson, and carried a
rolled leather case Of sheet music
something he couldn't imagine Milla
carrying in her young girls
dress, which attempted to be nothing
else, she looked as wholesome as cold
spring water. Ramsey had always felt
that she despised him and now, all at
once, he thought that she was justified.
Leper that he had become, he was I'M
worthy to be even touching his cap to
her! And as she nodded and went
briskly on, he would have given any
thing to turn and walk little way
with her, for it seemed to him that this
might fumigate his morals. But he
lacked the courage, and, besides. he

Arctic Days and Nights.

The Arctic is region Of snow and
ice; for months in the winter the sun
is below the horizon, and though for
other months in the summer it never
sets, it's heat is not strong enough in
most quarters to reduce the quantity
of snow and ice which form in the
cold season. The longest day and
longest night at latitude 70 degrees
are about two months each; 10 de-
grees farther north they are about
three months each; at the pole they
divide the year almost equally.

did not face it at all, in fact, but mere

Prohibition emptied the famous old
wine cellar of C. G. Cornwell & Sons
at 141S Pennsylvania avenue, and
now prohibition is refilling 1t.
Most Washingtonians remember
the rich, fruity perfume waited up
through the shiny iron gratings in
the good old days.
Today the gratings are flaked with
red rust and stand uselessly at the
side of the building, while carpen-
ters refurnish the cellar for its new
uses. The former Cornwell place is
now occupied by the distribution Of.
flee of the Treasury Department. the
Government having purchased that
block some years ago.
Within the next two weeks the
500 900 store of liquor seized by pro.
hibition agents will be transferred
there from a certain locked room in
the rear of 1922 F street, formerly
occupied by the local prohibition en-
forcement office.
The + street quarters were vacated
recently in the cause of economy and
the agents housed in Government
owned buildings. A change Of resi-

The problem Of storing the contr1.

partment and the Public Buildings
Commission and the Cornwell cellar
was inspected.
Time had left its imprint on the
old property, and alterations were
found necessary. The cellar now is
being refitted with concrete flooring
and other modern improvements. II
will be ready for use, officials say,
within two weeks.
