Raffia sunShades that were shown
by a few exclusive shops last season
are becoming more popular. They
have distinction and are smart aces
series. To buy they cost in proper
tion to the amount of hand work the
design requires, but they are not out
side the scale of prices that such shops
get for their finely chosen articles.
However. it is possible for a woman
who wants to have one of these chic
shades to make one for herself.
An old sunshade frame that has an
attractive handle is just the thing to
use if cost must be minimiZed. If the
cover is worn, new one must be
made, following the pattern of the old
one ripped apart. The sections will fit
wedgelike on to goods with the wide
ends along the Selvedge and the points
toward the center of the goods. BY
alternating the strips, no waste of
goods will be necessary. Each will fit
exactly into the outlines of the other
like a puzzle correctly put together.
Directions.
Stitch the bias edges together with
every point toward the center. Slip
the small hole over the tip of the sun
shade stick. Draw down each seam
and sew to hole in end of ribs or
around the indented part. Sew seams
to ribs in places indicated in frame.
Now the sunshade is ready for its
crocheted raffia cover.
The Cover.
Crochet chain and form circle that
Just fits over the tip of the stick, and
you are ready for any stitch you
choose for the raffia cover, single or
double crochet being the first row. A
very loosely crocheted cover is recon-
mended when the inside is attractive,
SO that the silk shows through be-
tween stitches, giving glimpses of color
that should harmonic with every tone
employed in the raffia. Some raffia
sunshades are unlined and are made
of fine single crocheting so close that
only Pickering rays come through in
terstitches.
The color scheme of the raffia is of
paramount Importance. If the shade is

lining or the color can be used in the
raffia But if the shade is intended to
do general use and so with many
frocks. bands of different tones that
accord with frocks can be introduced
For the banded covers use plenty of
the natural raffia or some indefinite
tone to set off the more decided
shades to advantage. The lining may
he Of silk. merceriZed goods or of a
thin. but fine grade of lining muslin.
This latter is frequently found in the
imported raffia sunshades. When the
outside is gay the inside should be in
conspicuous. A raffia cover. in attrac-
tive design crocheted in the natural
tone over gay lining, is smart.
Shape and Size.
When crocheting the raffia finish
each row and start another, but do not
work round and round. The crocheted
cover is made circular. and is shaped
by pulling down to fasten at regular
intervals to tips of sticks where the
lining cover is fastened. AS there is
tremendous give to the crocheted
raffia the size of the cover should be
gagged accordingly. Do not make ii
too full nor too long.
A Variation.
A fancy cover can be made by
crocheting circles (good-siZed ones, 2E
inches in diameter, are effective), and
sewing them with raffia to edges of
plain rows of raff1a. Such border Is
fascinating. Tack the raffia cover to
lining of the open sunshades. Ar
range the circles with top edge just
touching lower edge of this cover.
Circles should touch each other Basic
in position and sew at all joining
places. If spaces need to be filled i'll
between motifs, do so with strands of
raffia, having each space identical!y
filled in. Along the lower edge haste
a section or band of crocheted raffia.
Clip basting stitches and fasten cover
to tips of ribs and occasionally along
the ribs. A small ruche of short
length loops of chain stitches makes
a good finish for the cover where the
end of the stick protrudes.

Everyday Law Cases
Man EN- ploye Make Use OF
Trade Secrets Of Former
Employerr
BY THE COUNSELLOR.
By THE COUNSELLOR.

Jacob Thomas had a secret COM
pound for a flavoring extract: Fear
ing to divulge his process by applying
for a patent, and distrustful of shar-
ing his secret with employees, Thomas
started business in a small way, TAX
ing personal charge of every
operation.
Business prospered and Thomas de-
cided to engage employees to assist
him. Before employing them, how
ever, Thomas obtained their promise
that they would not inform any one
of the nature of his formula.
Some time later, one of the en-
ployes decided to engage in a similar
business on his own account. Leaving
his employment, the employee started
to organize company of his own
and offered several individuals a
partnership in the business for the
capital they would invest.
Information as to what the former
employe was doing reached Thomas,
and he Immediately filed an injunc-
ton in court asking that the employee
be restrained from divulging the ma
ture of his compound and from using
it. At the trial the employee denied
that he had ever made a promise not
to use the formula and asked that
the injunction be dismissed.
The court. regardless of the truth
of the employees defense, entered a
permanent decree of injunction
against him in accord with the fol
| lowing prevailing rule of law:
Equity courts recognize trade
secret as property, and will protect
the same by injunction as against
those who seek to disclose or use it
by violation of confidential relations
or contract, express or implied. and
| will also award damages for injuries
already inflicted by disclosure. 1t is
| the duty of an employe to be faith
| full to the interests of his employer
and to keep and guard his trade
| secrets"

Effect of Starch.

Before Starches are used by the
body they are turned into sugar by
the process of digestion. Starch is
fuel food. producing heat and energy.
III person of good digestion and as
sentative capacity eats starch food in
excess, the surplus energy is convert
ed into fat and the person grows
stout
If person of poor digestive and as.
similative capacity eats starch food
in excess. he fails to digest and as
simulate the starch and he grows thin.
Ills body becomes acid. And the more
ne eats the thinner he becomes.
StarCheS are almost entirely of vege-
table origin. The form known as ami
NAL starch is so rare and small in
quantity that we do not figure it in
our food calculations.
Starches are economical sources OF
energy. And every one needs some
starch. But both the fat and the lean
must use this type of food in modera-
ton. The fatter you are, the less
energy food you need.
The chief sources of starches are:
/. Cereals. This, of course. includes
wheat, corn, rice, rye, barley, oats.
Whether the grains are eaten as
breads. cakes. mullins. pie crust or as

Different Awnings.

Different awnings that are different
from the usual sort are to be had this
year. They will appeal especially to
the woman who doesn't care to buy
the same old things" or who is re-
furnishing her windows and wishes
that fact to be clear. Some of these
new" awnings have practical points
to recommend them as well as novelty
ir design and effect
Ventilated awnings may he bought
now by the woman with a room that
becomes a hot box or a porch that
never gets any air. They are made
in double awning style, a shorter one
fitting over a longer one. They are
m 4de so that no direct sunlight may
enter, and yet free circulation OF
air is possible. This overlapping type
o, awning is worth inspecting.
Many shoppers will be glad to know
that the oval doorway and window
has been provided at last with an
oval-tOp awning. The most practical
ones are mounted on curved frames
so that one may fold them back with
out any trouble. Of course these
frames will outwear the awning ma.
terial, and they are good values.
There is nothing new about the
straight awning, yet some shoppers
do not realize it's advantages for the
single window, porch or terrace. 1t
is the ARREST of all the awnings, and
it may be provided with all sort of
decorative devices, such as spearheads
to hold it in place.
The above awnings are typical of
the different" awnings which are now
on the market. Formerly one simply
ordered awnings regardless of one s
requirements or special conditions.
Today all of these things receive as
much consideration as any other
detail.
In ordering these or any other avn
ings, ones first thought should be OF

fitting and easy to handle. The out.

BY JENNY WREN.

An old rope-legged table, American
Queen Anne chairs with rush seats
and a massive old sideboard make up
the furnishings of this charming, old
timey dining room.
The walls are covered with a pale
green paper striped in taupe and
mauve. The woodwork is old white
and the floor of wide boards has an
interesting and colorful treatment. In
the manner of the early Cape Cod
houses it was first painted a solid
green. a shade darker than the walls
and then spattered with yellow and
purple This scattering is done By
dipping a scrubbing brush in the
colored paint and then running a knife
blade across the bristles in a way to
make tiny drops fly off onto the floor.
This floor makes an unusually effec-
tive background for the colorful
beauty of hooked rugs.
