SPRINCTIME
By ID. G. PEATTIE.

For several years now, have kept
a record of the blooming dates of the
first Spring flowers around my home
in the Virginia hills. That record
shows that Spring came very early
in 1925; in fact, the naples bloomed
on February II. The same trees were
"a days late in 1926 and this year
they had a precocious blooming on
February IS, for which they were
soon sorry, as an ice storm descended
on them with blighting breath. The
wiser maple individuals Of the same
species are out now, and 1t is my
guess that no ill will befall them.
Chill days we may have, but Spring
is here to stay-Spring, at least, as
botanist sees it.
I have wondered for a long time
what makes Spring early or late
from the point of view OF the flower
ing plants. My record, which notes
the weather. too, in general terms,
suggests to me the conclusion that it
is not necessarily in beautiful, balmy,
sunny weather that flowers burst
their bud bonds. The first alders
doomed this year on a cold cloudy
day. 1t is rather, in my present
opinion, the cumulative effect of the
whole warmth of the Winter rather
than sudden burst of warmth in
a thaw, that brings about an early
Spring. or at least an early bloom
ing. The past Winter, despite the
predictions of long-range weather
prophets, who foresaw snow in
Florida and other disasters, was q
mild Winter here in Washington, and
nothing extraordinary in colder places.
Spring comes this year, then, early.
But what 1t is that makes one kind
of plant bloom before another? That
is different question, and one to
which a botanist can give a definite
answer. Alders, naples and early
Towering trees like them bloom now
instead of in Summer like the lindens
and chestnuts, because they formed
their flower buds last Summer: by
the time Winter came these buds
were still minute, but the flower was

Shoulder-Length Hair.

Dear Miss Leeds-Could you please
suggest way to wear my hair? 1t

ders and is quite thick behind, since
l have not had it shingled since
August. I have a low forehead, round
face, rather large features and brown
hair. / want to wear my hair up, but
do not know just how to arrange 1t.
PERPLEXED.
Answer.-The younger girls are
wearing their hair very simply now
with a small knot or two little coils
at the nape of the neck. If you brush
your hair straight back you should
have enough to roll under into a small
bun behind A high side part should
become you also. Brush the hair back,
showing the lower parts of the ears,
and insert long curved comb at the
back to hold the hair down and then
curl the ends in small ringlets. A piece
of extra hair worn across the back OF
your head would solve your probiem
nicely. Part your hair all the way
back, coil the ends into small. firm
knots behind each ear and then at
tach the ends of the extra hair at
these points. Perhaps you still have
q switch made from your own hair
when it was bobbed. If So you might
have 1t made up into loose braid or
row of puffs to pin on the back OF

COI0ring GRAY Hair.

Dear Miss Leeds-D I have black
hair but am getting quite a lot of gray
ones. Is there anything besides a dye
that could use to darken these faded
hairs? (2) How can I rid my face of
enlarged pores? / wash my face with
soap and warm water, then rinse 1t
in cold water, dry and apply an astrin
gent cream.
Answer.-(D If you wish your hair
restored to a uniform black the only
thing to do is to have it dyed. When
the hair is just beginning to turn, the
sage and black tea hair restorer is
helpful in checking the grazing for a
time, but I doubt that it would give
satisfactory results with your hair. 1t
is not a dye and it would do you no
harm to try it. If you desire. just
brew one ounce of sage tea in pint
of boiling water and brew the same
amount Of ordinary black tea in a
pint Of boiling water. When cool

a final rinse after your shampoo. Col.

belt clasps which we had fondly
thought never to see again are once
more in evidence and however you
personally feel about adding such
needless details to your wardrobe the
chances are that you already possess a
Spring frock with a belt buckle or will
do SO before you finish your Spring
shopping.
Some of the new frocks have rath-
er narrow belt of the material placed
at a rather low waistline, attached to
the frock at the back. An ornamental
clasp holds the ends of this directly
in the front and when the frock is on
and the belt in position the clasp holds
the belt rather closely around the hips.
Many of the new evening frocks are
practically untrimmed save for an
ornamental buckle or clasp connected
with the sash or girdle or fastened at
the back or one side to hold the
drapery in position. Sport frocks are
provided with narrow leather or belt

namental buckles.

You had better take more time and

Accessories Come Back Into Use
BY MARY MARSHALL.

Related pieces of jewelry are much
liked nowadays. Your neck pendant
must match your earrings, or the ear
rings must be worn to go with a
brooch. Necklet and bracelets are of
the same sort-a hat pin matches the
brooch-a striking ring shows the
same diamond-studded bee or other
emblem as the brooch or hat pin.
Sometimes two identical buckles are
bought and one is used on the hat
and one on the frock, thereby giving
the hat and frock the much-to-be de-
sired effect of purposeful agreement.
Someone said recently that it ought
to be taken as an indication of a
more docile spirit amonk women

skins and leopards which were SO much
in fashion a season or SO ago. and
