AESTHETIC APRONS CHEER THE SOUL

No woman of even the most mod
est means need look like drears
druge in this day OF gay wash fabrics
and delightful apron fashions.
Do aprons have fashions? Certain
" they do! And never have they
been prettier than right now. It's
almost temptation to discharge the
cook. just to see some Of the charm
ing apron effects now in vogue. It's
a psychological impossibility for a
woman to feel drudgery when she
kows she looks piquant.
The bungalow apron, variously
called the "all-oyer" and the easy
on" is now practically a dress,
though it may be made loose enough
to slip on over a real dress if desired.
The bungalow apron may be open
the entire length in the back. or
stitched UP as far as the belt line as
the wearer prefers.
Gay cretonnes are especially popu-
lar just now, being used to trim
aprons of plain color chanbray, or to
form the entire apron with plain
color serving as the decoration.

very smart.
Blue with bright red rickracll is

a most attractively planned luncheon
and afternoons program given at the

The house was transformed into a

about the rooms. and the table was
beautifully appointed Dainty hand
painted place cards, with bits of ap-
propriate verse for each guest was
one OF the clever ideas employed to
start the good time, and the after
noon was one of unalloyed pleasure.
Miss Elizabeth Toohey's beautiful
voice was heard at its best in the
group Of songs rendered. while Miss
Ellen Lewis, who accompanied her
on the piano, came in for her share
of the applause. Mrs. A. w. Lief
green and Mrs. w. F. Caveness gave
some inimitable readings which were
tremendously received.
Little Betty Jakobi, dressed as a
fairy from Fairyland, wheeled in a
beautiful flower basket which con-
tanned a gift for Mrs. Flock, the
guest of honor, and the remainder of
the afternoon was spent in pleasant
converse.
