taking informal pictures of children
at play. Fishermen go by here a
great deal. Why not dig angleworms
and sell them for bait?"
Ugh" shuddered Anne. You're not
talking to me-
NO" laughed Uncle Bob, but
here's an idea for you. Advertise in
the papers that you will Take care OF
children. You might get another girl
to go in with you and start small
kindergarten, taking care Of children
while mother gets an afternoon vaca-
tion once in while. You could take
children on trips to the woods, too.
Making summer connections with
business firms during the summer
works well. Address envelopes at
home, by hand or typewriter, collect
accounts. solicit ads for newspapers,

When cherry season comes, Jack,

Berry picking" continued Uncle
Bob, sis another way to make money.
I know a boy who went out to a farm
and made an agreement to furnish
berry pickers for a lump sum. Then
he gathered together a lot Of boys
and girls and managed things. They
made money and had a lot Of fun, too.

collecting old paper and selling it
is an easy way to make a little ex-
ira money. No doubt there are
plenty Of friends and neighbors who
would be glad to save paper for you
If you made regular collections. The
same is true Of old iron. You may
not get very high price for it, but
it soon counts up.
"a standby for girls who want to
| earn money is washing dishes for a
couple of families each evening.
Especially in the summer, women like
to be free of this task. And for
boys, a standby is running errands
on a bicycle. A boy could work up
regular business getting groceries
for housewives, especially where the
stores do not deliver. or where de-
liveries are not made soon enough.
II remember a neighbor boy Of
ours who bought used bottles from
housewives. sorted them. boiled them,

You can almost make the straw
braid poke by following the picture
without further directions. The
crown, you see, is made by sewing
rows Of braid together over an old
crown of the proper shape. then TAX
ing out the crown and leaving a
flexible braid covering. This is ex-
actly the process milIiners use when
they make the soft crown hats you
find in the shops.
This hat Is likely to cost O bit more
than other hats you have learned to
make in these lessons, for the braid
Is usually about ten cents a yard, and
you will need ten yards. Perhaps
you can get yours more cheaply

Things
Vacation Money Making

Money sighed Jack. II wish
knew where 1 could make some this
summer. It's all right to play around
all vacation, ! guess. but you feel a
lot better II you can slap your pocket
and hear the dollars clink"
Or if you can look in the rocket
book and see something thatll buy a
lot of new clothes in the fall you hate
70 ask the folks to get you, what
with books and everything" added
his sister Anne.
ANY boy or girl can earn money
declared Uncle Bob, who was sitting
on the porch steps beside them. Las,
summer when / was in Larkinsville
noticed lot of ways boys and girls
there made money. Maybe some OF
those ideas would suit you.
Why, there are several early sum-
mer jobs. Jack. that you could start
on right now. If you are handy with
the paint brush. go around to neigh
boring houses and see if you can't
pick up jobs painting radiators. or
painting over porch furniture which
is being hauled out for the summer
Or If you know people who haven't
yet put up screens. there is a job for
YOU. Wall paper cleaning is another
way of making money. Bread dough
or even -four and water dough made
into a roll works like a big eraser
taking away the dirt and leaving the
paper fresh and bright underneath.
There are several jobs for which
you can work up regular customers
during the summer greasing and
washing automobiles, waxing and
polishing floors, sharpening knives
for busy housewives, shining shoes in
peoples homes on Saturday for Sun.
day churchgoing. You know quite a
bit about machines, Jack. You could
oil and repair sewing machines and
other household machines"
What about jobs for me?" put in
Anne.
IF you're good cook, why not
make some big Juicy fruit pies to
sell, or fancy cookies? That was a
fine salad we had for dinner-Ill bet
you could get orders making salads
for Sunday night suppers, picnics and
parties IL you garnish them up and
make them look as attractive as they
taste. I know a girl, by the way
who sold taffy apples. She made the
taffy by melting together brown
sugar, butter and water. The apples
were put on the ends of smooth
sticks, dipped In taffy and allowed to
dry.
Cleaning silver Is job house
wives all dislike-here's a chance for
you. And you, Jack, did you ever
think Of getting mother to let you
take the vacuum cleaner, if you're
careful with 1t, and going around
regularly to clean rugs where women
don't have cleaner?
Here's another idea, Jack. Make
a list of vacant property or lots that
are for rent or sale, call on the own
ors and explain that attractive lots
bring purchasers, and persuade them
to let you keep them in good condi-
tion for them. Or did you ever think
Of working up a regular lawn-mowins
route in the neighborhood?

money at her fingers ends. She car

may buy a small can Of enamel paint
for ten cents.
Cut the cardboard pieces, two OF
them in fancy shape, such as the dia-
gram shows you, and cover each with
cloth. Overcast the edges of the two
pieces together and then sew on
ruffie of black or white lace all
around the edge. Glue on your han

tion, sew a ribbon rose at the top.

cho-all of which seem to be quite
distinct and definite.
Not only do styles in colors change.
but styles in the names by which we
designate colors change also.
The term jade green is as paSsee as
the color it indicated. The informed
thing now is to refer to aphrodite
green, and the name is on the lips of
mllliners' and dressmakers' salesgirls
who probably never before heard this
season of this Hellenic equivalent Of
the goddess Venus.
Henna is no longer quite up to date.
There have been numerous equiva-
Tents or near equivalents for this
popular shade. and perhaps the new
est is casserole, named from .he rich
reddish brown of well seasoned
earthen casserole.
But perhaps all this is urimportant
hair-spltting. The thirg that in
terests most women is to know what
be worn by other fashionable women.
AS an initial bit of advice, be ii
known that very vivid colors are un-
doubtedly going to be worn this sum-
mer-have already been worn this
spring, for that matter. OF course.
there always has been-and always
will be, no doubt-a certain conserva-
tive number of women who look only
with objective interest at the new
vivid colors offered at any season
They seem to feel that they sacrifice
something Of sma rtness the minute
they wear any color more vibrant
than navy blue.
Their hats are tete de negre black,
possibly navy blue with white; their
suits are navy, black or gray, and
evening gowns of black. beige, all
"nlte, SILVER or gold are their choice.
OFTEN they are ardent admirers of
color. The sight of a bit of vivid
gladiolus or ruby red gives them pos
sitive exhilaration. The vivid orange
tones that we associate with japan
seem to warm the cookies of their
hearts. fash of that light bright
emerald green called aphrodite thrills
them, yet they would almost as soon
appear in acrobats' tights as in
gowns of these vivid hues
I: !: !:
THE important thing. however, is
that gradually, but surely, the
number of these conservatives, espe-
cially among really smart women, is
diminishing. So you may recently
have seen women who never would
consent 10 color before appear in
polka dotted neck scarfS of red, blue,
white. Bright orange sport skirts
and sport Jackets have been worn by
some of these color conservatives at
country clubs. Bright red hats no
longer betoken crudeness of taste in
dress, If, indeed. they ever did.
That red occupies an important
place among colors at the present

to make its graceful exit for the time

Perhaps not. Some Of the most
