True Flapper of
Late Summer Is
a Demure Thing
BY HEDDA HOYT
Fashion Editor Of the United Press

written for tho United Press)
NEW YORK. Aug. 23.-Though
batiks have a way with them. the
flappers say away with them"
Brilliant colored batiks. Egyptian
prints and huge figured effects have
no place in the wardrobe of the
average .flapper. Consensus Of flap
per opinion seems to be that blatant
effects are not for youth. but for
women with sufficient bulk to carry
them
Young girls between sixteen and
twenty-one years of age have alter
ed so greatly in the past year that
fiapper win soon become In obsolete
expression. 1t is hardly believeable
that the 6emure little girl one sees
these days dressed in organdy frock
poke bonnet. lace mits. etc. Is the
same person who cavorted last year
In full-fledged flapper attire ex-
tremely short skirts. wild hair, and
saucy upturned hat. to say nothing
of the rougish eye.
Girls would rather be demure than
unique. 1t would seem this season.
They gather on the golf links and
at the smart country places. where
one would expect extremities in
styles and color effects. in simple
little sweaters with white collars
and cuffs. Their co!ors are unusu-
ally subdued ones. such as tans.
grays. delft blues. etc. Their hats
are rakish little ribbon-trimmed af-
fairs of felt or leghorn. 1t is only

ed towards blatant effects this sea-
son.
F1apper IN the Evening.
Evening finds the flapper dressed
In organdy, null or French wolfe
cut in simple manner with slender
bodice and full skirt. Garish metallic
and beaGed effects are not for her.
For dances at the country clubs
she varies crisp organdies with pas
tel chIffons of fairy-like frills.
Even the youthful bob" is losing
its acknowledgements from the
FIJI Islander effect to the center
part, with buns v tho ears.
Those who cleave to bobbed hair
wear theirs without a sign of a
permanent wave but cut short in
boyish fashion with straight bangs
over the forehead. Often the hair
is cut SO short hat tips of the ears
show.
One wonders what has taken the
Flap out of flapper. Perhaps she
refured to compete with the kitten
ish matrons one sees in sleeveless
gowns. bodied hair. sandals. etc.
At any rate. she has become a cum
ming, girlish little thing with a de-
cidedly feminine slant toward life
and we love her for it.

In spite of the fifty-seven varieties
of nightmare, there are really only
four distinct types of bed springs, the
woven wire, the link fabric the spi-
raj and the box springs. A few words
about the advantages and disadvan-
tages of each will help you to choose.
The woven wire spring is in reality
a steel hammock attached to steel
frame. In one type this steel ham
mock is attached to the frame direct
ly, providing for an even distribution
of weight. Nevertheless, it will sag,
and when once stretched, there is no
way by which the original tautness
can be restored Another type has
the wire netting attached to the frame
at the head and foot by a row of
coil springs. This form Of suspension
prevents sagging under all ordinary
usage, and even if stretching occurs
1t can be corrected by simply renew
ing the coils 1t is important that this
point be kept in mind when buying,
for the worst complaint that can be
made against bed springs is that they
stretch and sag under the weight of
the body. The woven wire springs
are the cheapest on the market
The link fabric spring is made up
of sections that consist of four steel
wires linked together, making an
open square about four inches wide.
This spring is also attached to the
fYo,,,o ~, e+,.o,,n oail e,,,,.;,,oe, nc in
the better makes of the woven wire
type. When stretched out of shape,
this spring can be repaired either by
replacing the coils or inserting new
links. For a medium-priced article
the link fabric gives excellent service.
The open spiral spring is set of
upright spirals, on the same order as
those used in upholstering furniture.
One type, for wooden beds, sets di-
rectly on the Stats, while better
style is swung on a steel framework
above cross wires or fiat steel bands.
1t is a comfortable spring, but has the
disadvantage that it is harder to
clean than the link or woven wire.
The box spring is made upon still
a different design. 1t has spiral
springs of tempered steel, over which
is laid padding like a thin mattress,
and the whole covered with ticking.
In some grades this ticking is tufted
on top like mattress and in others
it is not.
This type of spring is the most ex-
pensive, the cost varying with the
quality and amount of the top filling.
It can, however. be bought without
the upholstery.
Being inclosed in ticking, the box
springs are the most difficult of all to
clean. Practically the only successful
way is to use a vacuum cleaner. The
other types, not encased, are cleaned
by brushing with q stiff bristle brush.

of Aida. However, Angelica obtained
that character for beauty which has
made the name popular through the
centuries. 1t has been particular
favorite with authors through all
ages of literature, particularly in mid
Victorian fiction, where its heritage of
fragile, virtuous beauty fitted it ex-
ceptionally for the name of it's hero
ines. Angela, from time immemo-
rial, has been applied to the fluffy,
youthful, unsophisticated type with
curly hair and wide innocent blue eyes.
The French call her Angelique and
Angelina England has evolved the
derivative Angelot. Angola, Anglo
lettta and Angiolota are the Italian
forms. The Teutonic versions are En-
gel and Engelchen. Amelia is Polish
and Anjela and ANGELINA have been
evolved in Bohemian.
1t is fitting that the pure beauty Of
Angela should have the pearl as her
talismanic jewel. It assures her charm
and purity and popularity. Should
she dream of pearls, she will find new
faithful friends. Monday is her lucky

Order to "Beat It."

One night several weeks ago a nom
frivolous citizen, in his quite proper
sedan, was driving sedately along on
his homeward way. The shades of
night had fallen. No air of mystery
pervaded the city. and all was well.
Bangety-bang-b angety began the
hood over his engine. Something was
coming loose. He drew up to the
curb and opened the door to get out
to see ABOUT the thing.
He opened the door to- get out. He
didn't get out because-a woman tore
open the rear door of the car on the
opposite side and sprang into the
back seat, whacked him on the Shout
der, and cried:
"Beat it, honey, beat it, they're
raidin' me again!"
A few minutes later, about twenty
blocks away, an automobile with a
loose hood ratified up to the curb. 1t
contained a man in the front seat and
a woman in the rear seat. The man
was heard to say to the woman:
"Now you beat it-and get out Of

The borrower is servant to the lender
Provero.
SpHERE is a really commendable
Il generosity on the part Of most au-
tomobile owners in trying to give the
greatest amount Of happiness possible
with their cars. Few automobile own
ers refuse to lend their cars for any
worthy charity-for instance, in many
towns the orphan asylums each year
call for borrowed cars to take the
children for an outing. Hospitals de-
pend on borrowed cars for taking con-
vaIescent patients for airings, and
then, Of course, there are the number
less times when the thoughtful owner
lends his car to friends. Sometimes
ne sends his car, with a driver, to take
some friends family for an afternoons
outing. Often he sends it to take
friends who have 70 car to or from
some entertainment. or for shopping
trip
Now, there is not much to be said
anent the mannerly way of lending a
car. Don't be condescending in your
manner. That is all. IF you lend your
car. do it with a generous spirit which
will be sure to show in your manner.
But there is a good deal to say to
the person WHO ccepts the use of a
borrowed car.

was that Mr. Nightingale would be
tired the next day, for he was singing
as loudly as if he had not sung a note

ANGELA
Or MILDRED
MAR SHALL

n NGELLIKE is the translation OF
"A Angela, from the Greek angeles,
meaning messenger, which the Romans
interpreted as heavenly messenger
and hence "angel." Angeles first be-
came proper in the Byzantine empire.
It is believed to have begun as an
epithet since it comes to light in kon-
stantinos Angeles, a young man OF
noble family whose beauty caused him
to be the choice of the Princess Theo-
dora Komena in HOO. Because of the
beauty of the family, Angeles became
it's surname.
The misdirected crusade Of the
Venetians brought it to Greece and a
monastic saint, who preached at Pa
lermo and was afterward murdered by
a wicked count whose evil deeds he
had rebuked, was one of the first to
bear the name. The Carmelites
claimed st. Angelo as a saint of their
order and the name, ia both It's mascu-
line and feminine forms, caught the
fancy of Italy.
1t became popular In the other ma
lions, due perhaps to its inseparable
associations with beauty, and also to
the fashion of complimenting women
as angels. The deriyative Angelica is
noted in romance as the faithless lady
for whose sake Orlando lost his heart
and senses. But she was gratuitous
invention of Boiardo and Aristo, for
Spanish ballads and earlier Italian
poets make him the faithful husband

TO TELL WHETHER A
COLOR is FAST

"Oh, look, my beautiful blouse is
all ruined |" Have you not often said
that, when you removed your coat or
suit and found that the color of the
lining had come off on your vast?
If you had remembered when buy
ing the suit-coat to take along a
clean, white cotton handkerchief and
rub it briskly over the lining you
might have saved yourself this dis
appointment. If any of the color
comes off on the handkerchief the
fabric is not fast to friction.
Do you know how Uncle Sam some
times tells how a piece of military
cloth is fast to perspiration or not?
By placing small samples in the shoes
of marching soldiers, or under the
saddles of those on horseback. A few
days test in this way will prove be-
yond a doubt the degree of fastness.
So if you are buying material for
lining, underwear, or dress or
blouse, the best way to test it is by
wearing a sample next to the skin
for few days.
Another test you can easily make
for fastness to perspiration is to steep
a sample in acetic acid for few min
utes. If the color does not fade then,
you will be safe in making the pur-
chase.
If you want to tell whether any
goods are proof against sporting"
sprinkle sample with water, and
then dry before brushing off. If there
is any change in either the color or
luster, do not buy it for a suit or
dress, as it will never be practical for
street wear or general outdoor use.
The only way to tell whether goods
are fast to washing is to actually
wash a sample in hot soap suds, and
then compare it with the original ma
terial. Sometimes. in buying a col
ored fabric to make up in combina-
ton with a white piece of goods. you
want to know if the colored material
will 'bleed." Braid a strip Of the
white with a strip of the dyed, and
wash together. If the colors are not
absolutely fast. they will run" into
the white.
In order to tell how fast material
may be to light and air, expose a
sample in a sunny window for sew
eral days. This takes time but you
may save yourself many a disappoint-
ing purchase in this way.
