MANY pretty professions of frocks
1NA for girls from six to fifteen or
sixteen are daily passing in review be-
fore inquiring mothers. While they
are looking for graduation dresses or
frocks for the little festivities of clos
Ing school days they will get full in
formation as to present styles for the
dress-up froeks of juveniles and are
sure to note that colors, In beautiful
shades, have usurped the place of
white to great extent. The shops
are showing pastel tints along with
white for graduation frocks Of crepe
de chine, georgette, chiffon or fine wolfe.
Pink, blue, lavender and white have
proved themselves the most popular
colors and are chosen for both the
younger girls and those in their teens.
For the younger girls the majority Of
these filmy frocks are sleeveless or
have very short sleeves, as shown in
the model pictured. This is a voile
frock with scant frills of val lace in
two rows above the hem, terminating
at the sides under loops of satin rib

The Sistine Chapel is a famous
chapel in the palace Of the Vatican at
Rome. erected by Pope Sixtus in 1473,
and designed for religious services dur
ing Holy week. The ceiling Is covered
with frescOes by Michelangelo and
the great FIorentine masters, repre-
senting scenes from the Old Tesla
ment; while the walls are adorned
with paintings, depicting events in the
lives Of Moses and Christ. The wall
above the altar bears Michelangelo's
sublime fresco Of the Last Judgment,
filling a space sixty feet high and
thirty feet broad. This work was de-
signed by Michelangelo when in his
sixtieth year, and required eight years
for its completion. The colors, how
ever, have been so much impaired by
time that little Of the original beauty
remains.-Kansas City Star.

Retain Curiosity, and
Keep Up With World

There is perhaps only about one
childish quality that should stay with
Us all our years, and that Is our Curl
osity. If we keep on asking questions
and wondering about things life will
keep on being interesting and fresh
and stimulating and growing bigger
and better every day. But if we allow
the routine of things, or too great
sense Of satisfaction, to wear down
and destroy our curiosity the zest win
largely 30 out Of living, and with that
the possibility Of progress, and we will
stand numbered with our prejudiees
and all the hampering lumber Of life.
And strange as it may seem, there
viii probably be many more questions
to ask when one is eighty than there
were when be was eight. Indeed, it Is
only when one has lived long and
thought deeply that he begins to un-
derstand how to ask questions, and to
see. how big Il the world that he does
not knOw.-Family Herald.

Wyre Draining Ancient Art

The Gold and Silver Wyre Drawers
company recently gave a big banquet
in London, England. 1t is of interest
to note that the craft had its origin in
India, and the first mention of it is
made 50 long since as B. G. 1491. Holy
Writ runs: "And they did beat the gold
into thin plates, and cut it into wires
TO work it in the blue, and in the pur-
pie, and in the scarlet, and in the fine
linen with cunning work" Homer and
HerOdotus also make mention Of the
art. Specimens Of gold and silver wire
drawing dating back to the Scandi-
navian period were found some years
ago at Wareham; and the body Of
William Rufus when disinterred in the
days Of Charles | was found to be
wrapped in cloth of gold.

bon. 1t is one of many models In
which the armseyes are finished
with lace ruffles. The small turnover
collar is finished with hemstitching and
bow OF ribbon with long ends IL
posed on the left shoulder where the
frock fastens. 1t would be pretty in
any light color or in white over a col
ored slip.
Nothing Is prettier than georgette
for graduation frocks and it proves to
be a durable fabric as well and fine
wolfe merits any fine needlework that
may be layished upon 1t, as 1t Is prac-
tically indestructible. With pretty
flaring skirts, tucks, lace and ribbons
all features Of the summer mode and
fiOwerlike shades Of lovely colors dis
tinctly fashionable, class Of girl grad
yates ought to be as enchanting to look
at as a blooming garden Of flowers.
Among the showings there are dresses
Of cream-coIored net covered with fine
tucks and combined with lace.

St, Augustine Boasts
Monv Coolest" Houses

In the oldest town in the United
States, st. Augustine, Fla, oldest"
houses are very numerous.
AS the tourist stands in the middle
Of Treasury street and, stretching his
arms, almost touches the walls on
both sides at once. he is readily con-
WINGED that the seven-foot thorough
fare is the narrowest street in the
United States, but the city's own dis
sension as to the Oldest house leaves
the visitor in doubt.
There is an oldest house in Ameri-
ca on the quaint and antiquated st.
Georges street, where men and beasts
mingle on the highway and balconies
drOOp low overhead. 1t has plaster
walls and dormer windows and red
shingles on its roof. 1t calls itself
Old Curiosity Shop and carries crest
over its door.
On the bay front is another oldest
house, postcard proclaimed. 1t is
two-story structure, with the plaster
peeling off of its brick. 1t has a gal
lery above and outdoor stairs at the
side. Still harder to find is an Eliza
bethan mansion on St Francis street.
1t is half timber and half stone, with
wide shingled hoods where it opens
on the street. 1t was once Spanish
mission, erected by the monks of St.
Francis who came to st. Augustine
with Menendez. They used 1t for a
chapel until 1890 1t is now a museum
Of old furniture, antique china and

Marked Business Gain
For Franklin in June

Syracuse, July 7,-As the first half
of the Calendar year draws to a close
Franklin factory officials announce
the firms business has shown steady
increase each month since the an
nouncement of the new stylecar, June
being the biggest month of the year.
Analysis Of shipping records reveal
some notable dealer achievements:
Forty-two dealers took more cars dur
ing the first five and one-half months
of 1925 than were taken altogether by
these dealerships in 1924 Ten more
dealers equalled their total 1924
records in this period of five and one
half months.
Indicative of sustained Franklin
business during the summer months is
the statement that the firms produc-
tion up to September LIST is wholly abb
sorbed by dealer orders filed on June
20. A lively demand for special Gus
tom-built Franklins is reported, as is
the call for clear vision coupes.
One of the outstanding events in
connection with Franklin's activities
during July will be a special display
of sport models by dealers throughout
the country, this display being in con-
junction with extensive publicity plans,
serving to focus public attention upon
the de Cause achievements in sport
car design.
The point is made by this eminent
European stylist, that for real smart
ness and exhilarating motoring there
is nothing like the open sype, the
style requirements in the cases of the
Franklin Sport Runabout and Tour
ing through custom effects along with
foreign design elements uncommon to
stock design American open cars.
