The Judge. after hearing testimony to
the effect that the lad was turning in

fathers complaint was evidently based
on the fact that he did not turn every
cent of it in. said. mfr. Simoneau. YOU

Paris, May EFT is firmly estab-
lishcd by now that the modern
couturicr must present a collection
of swimming and beach suits with
his summer collection. Although he
may have appeared at first to have
assumed a branch of fashions that
was foreign to him. his object was
useful one.
I do not intend here to describe
certain fantasies which saw the
light of day under this heading,
such as those fur bathing suits
of the fashionable seaside resorts
last summer. The women who wore
them certainly provided copy for
reporters, but they evidenced eX-
ceedingly bad taste. Hence the entry
of the couturier in this sphere.
Novelty Is In Color
In the fashion world, it is all n
question of adapting new ideas to
old themes; everyone knows that.
Sports dresses have become stand
ardized. The theme is the skirt and
sweater and in their coloring and
disposition only can changes be
worked
This also applies to swimming
and beach suits. Although this
years creations are very similar 10
| last. there are many new and at
] tracti,e details. a good point to
bear in mind regarding dress is
that eccentricity is the deadliest
remedy when seeking novelty.
The sweater. which is the impor-
tant part of the swimming suit. is
very like an ordinary sleeveless
pullover. Many pullovers. in fact,
could be worn for swimming. They
both are decorated in the same
| fashion. They both feature an en-
broidered monogram and stripes
! For a swimming suit. however.
! generally prefer rather more sobre
color schemes than for an ordinary
| sweater.
My latest swimming suits are in
pale colors with graduated stripes
of the same color. Sobriety is the
main theme to follow in clothes set
aside for some specific sport.
In beach suits, or sun suits as
we call them over here. a greater
fantasy is allowed. This appellation
by the way is entirely conventional
one. If it we're taken literally. these
suits would have to be exaggerately
| brief. more SO even than a swim
ming suit. They are. as a matter of
fact. generally drcssy in both senses
of the word. Destined as they are

awakened from his first long sleep.
a sleep of more than three months.
But he didn't know that he had
slept that long. Indeed, he didn't
know that he had had any more
than an ordinary sleep. So, as he
stood with his head poked out OF
the snug bedroom in which he had
slept so long. he was a most con-
fused little Bear. Things didn't look
right. Things didn't smell rIehf.
You see, when he had gone to bed
il was the beginning of Winter. Now
it was the beginning Of Spring. But
cubby didn't know.
Finally, cubby ventured out. He
wondered where Mother Bear was.
He had half mind to go look Tor
her. He shifted about for her tracks,
But he hadn't been using his nose
for a long time and he only smiled
half -hcartedly. He kept yawning.
He yawned and yawned. Then he
sat down. trying to make up MS
mind what to do next. suddenly II
occurred to him that he ought to be
hungry. He couldn't remember ever

he didn't feel hungry now. He

that there was little room Tor food.
That was the reason It felt queer.
But If Cubby didn't feel hungry.

So Cubby shuffled along. half

long since he bad used his legs that
he felt rather stiff and nncomfort-

to the bank of the Laughing Brook.
He sat down and stared at it SOL

Sickness and Death

Sickness, death, and even religion
are subjects on which grownups
often find it hard to meet the
searching questions of little chill
drcn. To express horror or show
that one is shocked at the young
girls keen interest in a passing
funeral procession only gives the
whole subject an undue fascination
for her. If one wishes to relieve
her mind Of excessive perturbation
one must force oneself to look at
the matter with the clear eyes Of
youth and let no emotionalism faint
