New York, N. Y, March 2S.-
Lace hosiery Is the thing for eve
ming wear or for wear with the
elaborate afternoon costume. Hose
for spring shown in shops here have
two panels of lace in front with a
dainty embroidered panel in be-
tween. These come not only in
black and white but also in the
seasons shades, with occasionally
white pair delicately strewn with
embroidered pink rosebuds or a
black pair with embroidery in jade.
New York, N. Y, March 2S.-A
novel scarf for the sports suits is
of blue cheviot with rows of cam
els hair or wool flowers appliqued
on the ends. The scarfs are in all
the fashionable, sports colors with
flowers in bright contrasting
shades. Sometimes there is smart
little turbans to match the scarf,
trimmed also with the gay flowers.
San Francisco, Cal, March IS
Handkerchiefs, having reached
height of gayety in color, are now
growing gay in patterns also. The
fad for landscapes with little fig
ures has translated itself into rows
of deLnure houses against rural
background or into border of
dancing Greek girls. Sometimes
there is just one figure generally
a quaint belle in hoop skirts en-
broidered on a corner.
Palm Beach, Fla, March Is
Organdie and dotted swiss sleeves
-guimpes are being seen here with
foulard frocks. The guimpes are
usually white, though a dark blue
foulard with tan circles had tan

frilled guimpe of orchid organdie.
Most of the guimpes seem to have

Dear Mrs. Thompson: l am
deeply in love with a boy l have
known for a long time, but with
whom 1 had never been out untli
lately. | met him at a party and
he asked to take me home.
On our way home he asked what
day would be convenient for me to
go out with him and l wasn't so
well posted and SO I told him to
call me up. OF course he said
he would. Finally we reached our
destination and he asked whether
he could kiss me goodnight, but l
said, mo, sir!" etc.
| really didn't think it proper for
him to try to kiss me, as that was
the first time he brought me home
Now I don't think he loves me any
more and I expect he will never
call me up.
Please tell me whether I was
right in not letting him kiss me.
Should l call him up if he won't?
1 love him dearly.
MISS FRTVOLITY.
You were absolutely right in not
letting the young man kiss you. II
he is disappointed because you
would not, and does not phone you
for another date, don't worry about
it because it will show the type of
young man he is. ANY young man
who would want to go with you be-
cause you would kiss him and for
no other reason would be unworthy
of you.
Do not call him In time some
one else will enter your life and
you will find yourself even more
deeply in love.
Dear Mrs Thompson: l have
gentleman friend in another city.
We have known each other for
three months. He has been here TO
see me twice. Last time he came
two weeks ago. He asked me how
would like to come to see him
and his folks, but he didn't set any
date I have only heard from him
once. Would it be proper for me
to remind him of it?
| think the world of him. An
other thing, his wife is dead and
he has two grown sons. He hasn't
asked me to marry him, but he said
last time he was here we are in no
