New " nee Craze Demands
Full Frock in Milady's
Wardrobe.

Your evening gown is what the
dance makes it.
If Dame Fashion imagines she can
put over anything without first. con-
sulting old Tcrpsichore-well, she'd
better think again. ..,a
As proof, witness the latest mode
in dance frocks. s.
Yes, indeed, milady must include
definite dance frock in her ward
robe-all due to the Charleston craze.
Long and slender were the lines
predicted for evening gowns this sea-
son. 4:
Short and full are the ones that are
worn. The dance is responsible.
When the Charleston took the coun-
try by storm, those who could dance
it demurred at having to pull up their
dresses TO do the leg whirling steps.
So now we have the Charleston frock
with the tight-fitting. vaistline bodice
and short full skirt that pillows in
the jigging dance.
A devotec Of the latest dance fad,
who posed for the photo above, de-
clared today that without one Of the
new dance frocks no wOman's ward
robe is complete this season.

Fashions Fads
and Fancies
BY Mildred Ash

Bellies and bell boys are assuming
much the same attire, for the "bell
boy" suit is one of the latest Partisan
novelties ip two-piece frocks. A dark
blue skirt. of heavy navy canton crepe,
finely pleated and just below the
knees in length is worn with slight
er weight silk crepe jumper of bright
red, buttoned up the front with brass
buttons. A tiny, navy felt hat, with
up-rolled brim, is trimmed directly in
front with q red and blue -lncquered
Chinese ornament and gives the cos
tune the effect of boyish livery.
Meshes of enchantment are the sill
yer or golden meshes Of the glittering
net hose for formal evening wear with
kid or metallic brocade slippers to
match. Never have high insteps and
slender ankles been displayed to bet
ter advantage than when clad in such
exquisite stockings. ..
Savage splendor is suggested by the
'dri-cOlorcu iEluSt uduc VI ueSp shh
strands, dyed in many shades, whose
combination gives a barbaric effect.
Used on negligees, scarfs, shawls and
even on extremely striking frocks, it
imparts most dai:ng dash of color.
Broader and brighter belts are an
outstanding feature of the latest cos
tunes. OF suede, or the softest kid,
they are developed in the loveliest soft
colorings decorated with appliques Of
contrasting shade, hand painting, nail
heads, cut-out designs and many other
novel treatments never before used.
Put in their place in an entirely
new way. the sleeves of some of the
most snappily-styled cloth frocks arc
set into scalloped armholes. Distinct
ly different, such a shoulder adds an
extremely novel air to plain tailored
girlish dress. the neck of which is
trinity finished with high collar of
fur or of cloth banded in metallic
braid. 100 80. p. ..... 49,. .--t

FOXY GRANDPA'S STORIES
Where Il Is Always Summer.

"My. it's cold" said Bobby. coming
in with his little nose looking like a
red raspberry. II think I'd like to
five where it is always summer"
Then you'd better move to the Fla
waiian Islands" ! laughed. "You
could go in swimming all the year
round, but of course you couldn't go
ice-skating.'
Bobby considered this for q moment
and then said
The Hawaiian Islands belong to
the United States, don't they, Foxy
Grandpa?'
''They do. Bobby. They have rep
he has no rthcless they arc
represented"
How did We happen to own the
islands," asked the boy who always
wants TO know the why and wherefore
of everything. which by the way
plcases me very much. Because then
he will know something when he grows
up.
TN tell YOU" said 7.
"Thc Hawaiian Islands were first
discovered by some Spanish explorers
in 1850. but they didn't pay much at.
tention to them. Then along came the
great English explorer. Captain Cook,
The same one that explored Aus
tralia?" asked Bobby.
Tho very same" l answered.
My" said Bobby, IL wish l had
been n sailor on bis ship"
you would have had to have been
born long while ago, Bobby" /
chuckled. because It was 177S that
Captain Cook first visited the islands.
1t was he who called them the Sand
wich Islands. a name by, which they
were known for many years.
"But that was an unfortunate trip
for Captain Cook. Because he quar-
relied with the natives and he was
killed in fight with them"

TOO bad" said Bobby.
Then followed another British eI.
plorer, Vancouver, after whom Van
couyer, Canada, is called. He taught
the natives OF the Sandwich Islands
how to build boats.
But these people did not progress
very much until the American mis-
sionaries went out TO the islands in
1920 and taught the natives not to
believe in their heather gods.
"Tbe Sandwich Islands were ruled
by a native king. and in 1872 the royal
family died out and they elected a
king. But he was n very bad influ-
cncc. He tried TO restore the heather
gods and take away the liberty of the
people.
when this king died. his sister,
Lillioukalani. came to the throne and
she followed in his footsteps. But by
now there were many white people on
the islands in the sugar business and
growing bananas and pineapples. So
they drove the queen off the throne
and declared themselves to be under
the protection of the United States of
America"
They were pretty smart. think, "
said my young patriotic friend, Bobby.
They were refused at first. but
they would not allow the queen to
come back, and ruled themselves as a
republic. But in 1898 they were an
nexed to the United States and were
ruled like our former territories were,
which you studied about in geography.
So you see you would still be living
under your own flag if you went there
to go in swimming all the year."
THAT would be fine, Foxy Grand.

think it is cold enough to freeze the
lake tonight. and ! think I'll get out
my skates in case il does"

Listen, World!
Your World
By Elsie Robinson

Our Real World isn't that place
outside you.
II isn't an Arrangement Of noun
tains and valleys. waters and plains.
1t isn't a collection Of homes and
governments. towns and nations, in
diyiduals and institutions.
It isn't n program OF sermons and
operas. lectures and vsudevilles, pic
MICS and working hours,
IT. isn't the things you see.
Or the things you do.
YOUR REAL WORLD is IN
AND YOUR REAL WORLD is
WHAT YOU. YOURSELF, MAKE
1T BY YOUR OWN ATTITUDE.
Your attitude is the sieve through
which the outer world is sifted into
your inward spirit.
1t is the interpreter which takes q
mass of impressions from that outer
world and gives the meaning to your
spirit
And it is that Interpretation which
constitutes your Real World for you.
The outer world Isl Of course, al
ways the same.
1T /. only the Interpretation that
differs.
IL your attitude Is healthy, II Is
going to give a healthy Interpretation
of the outside world TO your waiting
spirit.
Ii may, of course, make many mis-
takes. but in the main its interpreta-
ton will be true and clean.
It will not darken that interpreta-
ton by its own suspicion.
Or cramp it by its own pettiness.
Or make it sordid bY its own ma
terialism.
Or poison it by its own rancor.
1t will give you nourisbing. slim
ulating pi>%e which will act on your
mind as good food acts on your body.
Bat il your attitude is unhealthy,
it will give 2 sickly, perverted inter-
probation of that outside world to your
spirit.
" will make you think that all the
world is mean, petty, actually danger
Gus.
1t will give you an Interpretation
which will as surely sickcn your mind
as bad food and water sicken your
body.
For example
Brown sees the same mountain as
Smith.
Jones li7cs in the same government
as White.
But TO Brown the mountain is a
thing Of noble. soaring beauty
And to Smith it is grade that
raises Cain with his car.
To Jones the government Is tire
neutrality-suspicious.. WORTHY OF his de.
I rctcd service.
While to White it is mass of cor
runtion. all bent upon thwarting and
prosecuting him.
Does this mean that all healthy atti-
tudes must BE- Polyannas-
And that anyone who sees uglincss
and danger has a diseased attitude?
Does it mean that the Real World
is n perfect arrangement Of high mo-
tivcs and beautiful deeds?
1t does NOT.
IT SIMPLY MEANS THAT THE
HEALTHY ATTITUDE SEES LIFE
WITHOUT A SQUINT.
The healthy attitude often sees uglii
ness and menace-it often registers
hate and revolt
But it registers them accurately.
1t gives the right perspective.
What is YOUR Reel World?
Is it reasonable place wherein you
have a fair chance TO make good and
in which there is some beauty for all
of us to offset the inevitable pain?
Or is it a place of constant injus.
tice. of ugliness and unfriendliness.
Where you are the only true. noble
soul in operation? Stop and think.
THE MOUNTAIN is ALWAYS
THE SAME
ARE YOU A BROWN OR A
SMITH?

about four-fifths we've extinguished
before reaching 10 acres in extent
Although many of the national
forest regions of the west entered
the spring months with a shortage
of 80 per cent or more in precipita-
ton, and continued dangerously dry
throughout the summer, it is felt
that methods of prevention and sup
preston can further be perfected
which would bring even such a dan
gerous season as last year through
with a better record. The situation
was studied personally by the For
ester in the regions of highest loss.
AS a result, improvements and re-
forms are being directed along
specific lines.
The largest single source of man
caused fires was smokers. Reduc-
ton of carelessness with burning
tobacco is imperative. Another of
the lessons brought out by the past
years experience is the need of a
general study and elimination of
special and local hazards such as
Sire trap" sawmills, accumulation
of slash and the like. The organ
ization of local and public coopera-
ton, an important factor in fire
protection, will be farther analysed
in the light of the past years ex-
perience. Many other questions will
receive the most careful attention
of the forest service this winter in
Guiding the more efficient use of
aircraft in forest fire detection and
suppression.
