own idiocy:- Alice said TO herself at
thought of her meeting with Shelby.
Almost she decided to tell Mr.. Viii

To tell the truth she was frightened.

Shelby, son of the famous architect,
had met with an accident. He had
been hit by an automobile and badly
injured - had been carried TO O hos
pital. and while his injuries were not
dangerous, they would necessitate his
remaining there for some time.
There followed a short sketch Of the
late divorce proceedings, still fresh III
the peoples mind. In spite of herself
Alice felt a sense of relief. 1t was a
reprieve. She had hated the thought
Of telling Mr.. Williams. Of confCssing
her own fault in the matter. Now il

VARIETY Of Interesting Subjects Discussed for Home Reading
Evolution of the Sweater

Consider the evolution of the sweater
Once an ugly, ungainly, heavy thing
worn only for athletics, today it's one
of the most attractive articles of femi.
nine apparel.
Of thin wool or silk, knitted into
lace or block patterns, or with an open
work stripe or check, it takes the place
of blouse, most effectively worn with
a white wool or silk skirt.
Gives Costume Effect.
Often fringed skirt is added and
the whole is worn over a silk slip of
the same color ,egiving the effect of
an entire costume.
A chic decoration consists of
initials or a monogram on sleeve, front
or pocket. Such decorations usually are
done in white or tan on dark sweaters
and in vivid colors on light ones.
Some models are braided. even beaded
or appliqued in splashy colors.
The entire knitted costume is seen
everywhere-a one-piece affair or Il
separate skirt and slipover blouse.
Knitted hats, scarfs and capes ac-
compony many costumes.
Hats, Scarfs, Capes.
The sweater is not restricted in its
usefulness. but, worn with skirt of
the same color, supplies costume
which the business as well as the society
girl loves to wear.
Now is the time for every woman
who knows how to knit to get out her
yarn and needles and anticipate her
summer needs,

HOSPITAL APPEAL
Institutions Friends, in Fund
Campaign, Correct Errone.
: Gus View of Status.

Officials and friends of Columbia
Hospital for Women constantly have
to combat the impression that 1t is q
governmental institution and that
therefore. there is no good reason
why it should have to appeal in any
way to the public for assistance in
carrying on its work. This idea is
oven now in process of correction by
members Of the woman's board OF
the hospital, which has arranged for
May in the Masonic Temple Audi
torium a special beneflt presentation
of The Glorious Adventure" This
photoplay, a prizma film, made in nat
ural colors, said to mark milestone
in the progress Of cinema work, has
had presentations in other world cap
itals, but will not be publicly re-
leased to the world until next Sep
tember.
Government Owns Buildings.
AS a matter Of fact. 1t Is explained,
the federal government owns the Co
lumbia Hospital buildings, including
the nurses quarters, together with
the ground on which they stand. Like
a ma jority of similar institutions III
the District, Columbia Hospital re-
ceives an annual congressional appro-
priation, which covers the cost OF
lighting and heating, while some
times an allowance has been made for
repairs. This year, however. the an
nual appropriation has been, reduced
BY $1,000. and without special assist
ance from outside II Is going to be
most difficult for the institution to
make both ends meet.
For a number of years past the
woman's board has raised the neces-
sary funds to supply the requisite
- A- hi -
pital, which Specializes In maternity

ditions of the nurses home and con-
tributing to the welfare of the oc-
cupauts, and finally, for paying half
the expense of the important social
service work performed In connec-
tion with the prenatal clinic.
Sec "AIost Urgent Need"
There is felt 10 he the most urgent
need that this work Of the board
should not only be continued. but en-
larged. and IT is to I'LL this need that
