This is the time of the year that
the young girl is rewarded for going
to dancing classes by the acquisition
of a new party dress. Here are some
of the pretty models from which she
can make her choice this year.
Ruffles always did belong to young
girls and they seem more than ever
popular. They may be so wide as to
be really flounces or they may be mar
row and very many. Both kinds are
shown. Soft PINK crepe, white crepe
trimmed with pink or blue, white
georgette over a pink or blue slip
these dainty frocks have no hint of
sophistication. but only the charm
that is theirs by reason Of their
wearer's youth.

Use the homely root vegetables pro.
vided by nature for winter instead OF
demanding shipped, out-of-season deli
cacies.
OF course if turnips and parsnips
and carrots are simply boiled and
thrown on the table with an eat-inr-
if-your-must attitude the family will
more than likely become difficult and
unmanageable and the poor turnips
will be so much waste.
But il the same care and interest
goes into the dish of carrots that
went into the dollhouse asparagus You
will have just as delectable a vcgc-
table, adding more food value TO ;he
autumn diet for less money.
In planning meals always keep in
mind that the food in season is the
food needed for the building up ana
preserving of the body tissues. Moth
er Nature is most canny and as the
seasons change and the diet includes
hearty meats she provides coarse,
bulky vegetables full Of mineral sahs
necessary for healthy bodies.

THE PHOENIX Y. W. c. A.

The Y. w. c. A. means nothing to
our peoples doing nothing for col
ored girls" This is the rumor that
has reached the local Young Womens
Christian Association. A year ago
this rumor was true to large extent
There were no clubs for colored girls,
but the Y. W. c. A. was finding en-
ployment for all girls, irrespective of
their color or religion. However, this
service was slight when compared to
the other activities the Association
was doing for girls. The Y. w. C. A..
having only one worker for girls has
not been able to extend its work un-
til this year. Another club worker
has been added to the staff. The
first duty of this secretary was to or
ganize the colored girls into Girl Re-
serve clubs. There is now a club in
each the colored high school and the
Douglass school. The work done with
these girls is identical to that done
with white girls. AS members of the
Girls Reserve Corps of the Y. w. c.
A. they are learning self reliance,
finding the joys of fellowship and de-
veloping a normal, happy girlhood
This week is Y. w. G. A. budget
week in Phoenix. With no equipment
and few funds, the Y W. c. A. is
helping five hundred and twenty
girls to face life squarely and to
find and give the best" Get back of
the Girl Movement in your city! The
Y. w. C. A. needs your support and
your girls need the Y. w. c. A.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, March While
spending a short visit in this city
last week Prince Bulawa Cetewayc
commented in part as follows on
American ways and moral standards:
Il think your American standards of
morals are too loose. have observed
this in both races here. Maybe these
women you call flappers are respons-
ible. We do not have them in our
country. My country is almost as
civilized as America Most Zulus go
to church on Sunday And morally
they are the finest people in the
world. Commercialized vice is un-
known. In parts of Africa where such
conditions exist, they are the products
of the Anglo-Saxon."

is Slim Jim, breaking out again

attributing every disaster of her
life to Lady Tallbois, found her

All went admirably. But he did
nothing more than he was told
he certainly never dreamed of
poison-he is not fool, but just
a reliable automaton. No other
living creature than he, Joan
and Agnes ever set foot in the
flat that afternoon-until after
the event."
Callaghan struck his fist on
his knee.
"The poisoning, therefore, is an
unknown factor. I hate the I'M

guard against it. And foresee
that, when the case develops,
