ed to talk and make a great deal of
noise.
They wanted everyone around to
know that they had been chosen as
the ushers at the concert.
Soon the birds began to arrive. And
such a burst of color.
The orioles were looking very love
ly with their bright, gay coloring.
and the goldfnch family looked like
bright gold.
The robins had such handsome red
waistcoats on, and the song sparrows
were singing merrily and saying,
We are happy and gay and free.
Even If we are not much to see,
For though our colors are not very
bright.
We can play by day and sleep at night,
And we, without fine feathers and
frills,
Will sing you now our very best trflls."
To be sure the song sparrows sang
beautifully, and all the other birds
were saying,
"Twit, t-wi-t, chirp, c-h-i-r-p,"i
which was their way of saying
"Bravo."
All the birds sang and the crows
showed all the guests to their perches.
The flowers were the stage, and
how proud they were to give their
beauty for the decorations.
The butterflies came because Mr..
Sun had invited them. And Mr.. Suns
guests were always welcome.
The humming birds and thrushes
came too, and before the day was
over. Mr.. Sun said,
"Well, l don't know when | have
had such a noted gathering to shine
upon, for have had the lovely flow
ers, the birds, butterflies, and the
handsome ~rows."
So everyone was very happy, as the
great Mr.. Sun had paid them such
fine compliments.

Use Of Selvedge y u. .:s....,

Making fashions supply their own
trimmings is fashions latest miracle
performed. In the yesteryears of life
the selvedge of this and that material
was an evil to be done away with-to
be kept out of sight at least. Which
usually meant that the unwelcOme
selvedge was cut away and relegated
to the scrap bag. We have, at this
late day, learned better.
Stylists have discovered that the
selvedge edge is thing of beauty"
If you still have doubts, HE away to
the smarteSt shop in town and inquire
about selvedge trimmed coats and
frocks. To your skeptical eyes will
be revealed one demonstration after
another of the decorative power in
selvedge edge.
Perhaps the object lesson will con-
sist of swagger cloth sports coats
whose front openings, pockets, cuffs
and scarf collar revel in fiattering
selvedge finishings. Then again you
may be shown several nifty suits or
ensembles of tweed or some handsome
wool novelty weave, whose selvedge is
its adornment.
However, selvedge trims are only
one phase of the self-fabric treatments
Just as unique is the self-fringed or
frayed edge. The dark blue twill silk
blouse in this picture is the dernier
cri of fashion, mostly because its hem
line is frayed to form a self-fringe.
Cloth manipulated in the same way is
also a hobby with the stylist. SO if
you are puzzled as to the best way
of finishing the edges Of the silk blouse
you are making, echo answers: Fray
it, fringe it.
Another element of smartness ex-
pressed in this costume is the fact of
a colorful blouse worn with white

with color is already an established
fact for coming months. This also car
