church and the NJ E. church on the
subject of the weekday school of re-
ligion. Such a school was conduct
ed at Selbyville last year, and it is
hoped that another school may this
year be set up at Dagsboro. The
plan provides for the instruction of
children one hour per week on pub
lie school time, and is non-denOml-
national, the hour being devoted to a
study of the Bible and the princi-
pies of Christian living.
The weekday school of religion
has been in operation throughout
various sections of the country now
for the past ten years. In such cities
as Kansas City, Mo-, Dayton, o.,
Gary, Ind, the movement has been
very successful and is considered a
part of the public school program,
the teachers of religion being en-
ployed by the local school board. A
very successful weekday school
system is being carried on in Jenkin-
town, Pa, and in Maryland the Sud |
lersville Group of Churches spon-
soring weekday schools at Galena,
Millington and Sudlersville. !

then was but 24 to the thousand of women whose babies lived. In New York city at large during the same period the maternal mortality rate was 5.3.
 In view of the fact that the United States is reputed to have the highest maternal mortality rate among larger nations, this study is of great value. It demonstrates that deaths incidental to child bear ing and birth can be reduced more than two-thirds by proper e. care. Again, it proves that every year more than 10 thousand women needlessly die in the process of child bearing. ,.
 The study of the results of prop CT maternity care shows that the child as we'll as the mother profits. Thus the group studied had bet ter record in stillbirths and in in fant mortality. Among those not cared for by the association the stillbirth rate was 70 per thousand, while among those receiving proper care the rate was only 25.

 Whatever the color one chooses for stepping out to church on that style day of days, she should re- member certain fashion facts about line. Skirts are longer, whether the majority wants them or not; even hems are much smarter than dipping ones for daytime; waistlines are marked and for the most part

 For the warm hearted Easter lady. there arc three exceptionally inter-
 esting types for her Easter cos
 tune that present a tantalizing
 triple choice to the woman who is
 proud of her beauty and knows enough to capitalize it.
 LanguOr and Grace in New Mode
 All three of these types of cos
 tunes are entirely new style de- velopments this year. All three have q soft dangerous grace in their
 gentle lines that Is quite expressive
 both of springs spirit and the new movement toward lady clothes All
 three proclaim in print that they possess the loVeliness that all wam-

 Dainty as the most feminine miss is the fitted little silk suit with long pemlum to it's coat outlined in fur. The printed crepe is many shades of tiny, rose e-toned flowers against a, deep blue background--a combina- tion of color that Paris created and all America sponsors. The fox that edges the deep peplum of the coat is blue fox, than which there is no more luxuriously toned fur in the world.
 The little froc1 of this outfit is sleeveless, with on of the new soft trilly necks that wears it's collar outside it's coat for the sake of new ness and jauntiness and in the name of youth! All seams are piped in rose and the gloves and hosiery are a beige that match. A navy blue bag and a erin hat in blue with the new off-the- forehead lit and sweet ribbon bow fo rtrim complete the costume.
 Next comes the sleeveless cape ensemble this one made up in stun ming color tones ia finely figured gray georsctte, flecked with red. for the frock and red flat crepe sleeve less cape with lining and lapels of the georgette. -..-

New York, April 1S.-'Tis a glam- orous burden of chic that women of taste will carry on their fair shoul- ders when marching in the Easter parade this year.
 Never were clothes more ravishing in their gorgeous fcmininity. their delicate, flattering color and fabrics and their new styling that capital izes charm in every curve and line.
 If Easter is warm. which it is quite apt to be with the day so late
 in the season, or if one happens to
 live in those southern climesswhere summer is all the year round, the Easter outfit should naturally be of silk or some combination of silk and cotton or linen. Color is quite the choice of the lady who wears the costume, but certain outstandingly popular shides should be noted.
 One may be blue on Easter Sun day but only from q fashion stand point. All tones of blue are excel lent, from baby to midnight. and many is the alluring outfit that'com- pines not only two blues but three. Beige, tan and new tone called twne. soft grays with a touch of such color as red, green. lavender and pinks, all the gamut of greens, |Ieds, rose pinks and a new violet

The frock is a dclcctablc model. with a full finely pleatcd skirt with scalloped lower edSo and side panels also scalloped. The bodice fits snug ly and is belted at the waistlinc and the sleeves of the frocl, end just above the elbow. while gray suede gloves go up 10 meet them in quite the latest, approved manner. One Of the straw barets. in the coats red, makes shining frame for Easter lovelness.
 For tho young lady who has known enough to retain a certain buoyant tilt of dead f1appersm and add to it a gracious dignity of the new .era. nothing could be more ap- propriate tha nthe youth ensemble of sleeveless coat and tiered frock in the new printed design in soft beige and lavender. This printed outfit scores high in it's style points.
 It's sleeveless short coat ends in a pleated fiounce just like the frock's skirt boasts. It's sleeves are the last word, short and stirred and tied in q bow at the elbow. Its bodice has 9 shirred front. topped by a bow, and it is beted tight at waistlinc. The gloves are long, of course. and the hat is a violet panamalac, trimmed with satin ribbon.

The concern was that in Harry Underwood voice as he gave me the message for Lillian which made me pause for an instants thankful retrospection. Not always had there been that intonation as he spoke Of his wife. Lillian had once told me that her marriage to Harry was a case of picking up the pieces for both of them, and my impression of them during the first years of my own marriage had convinced me that while they were wonderful comrades and staunch friepds, there was no romantic love on either side. But since Harry's return to his world which he had left in tragic disgrace during the World war there had been a new note struck for both of them, and they had had a renaissance of happiness beautiful to see.
 X Morning Stroll
 I turned from the telephone to an empty room and realized that the Trains and Mir Hasbrouck had tact fully absented themselves during my talk. I tapped on the door which l thought led to the kitchen, and after few seconds Mrs. Train came to the door and I saw her husband and MT. Hasbrouck smoking in the rear of the room.
 T have finished telephoning, l said. Thank you so much"
 The two men rose and came to- ward me.
 Everything all set now?" MT Hasbroucks big, jovial voice boomed the question.
 "Oh, yes. The man is no doubt bound for the hotel and Mrs. Under woods husband will look out for him there. We are going down the west side of the river and shall tele- phone him at Englewood."
 Then that's all right" Mir. Train said. "You can wait another hour and then if Ed hasn't telephoned you can start. Why don't you joir your friends. They evidently are having wonderful nap"
 T might waken them." I return cd, land l want them both to sleer until the last minute. Besides, I'm SO wide awake now that I couldn'i go to sleep again. Do you suppose it's such a glorious morning-that ii

would be all right for me to so for a walk?"
 MT. Hasbrouck and MT. Train ex- changed glances.
 Why, I can't see any reason why she shouldn't have a stroll" MT. Hasbrouck rumbled after a seconds hesitation, unless Ed should tele- phone. The man must be half way to New York by this time. And even if Ed should telephone you could get Mrs. Graham back here in the car while I talked to Ed. You could start after her as soon as we knew it was a long distance call. You know how long it takes to put one through"
 Mir. Trains Route
 "Yes, l know" MT Train an- swered. That is a perfectly good plan-if we know where Mrs. Gra- ham is goingto walk"
 Couldn't you outline a route?" I asked, with an effort to keep from smiling. T would promise to follow it strictly. Then you would only have to travel up one street and down another until you found me"
 Mir. Trains face cleared and he eyed me with distinct approval That's a good idea" he said, If you're sure you can remember the route"
 I'll try my best" I said meekly, but with twitching lips as I imag- ined what Lillian would say if she could hear him.
 Then get your things on," Mr, Train advised briskly, and I'll map out route"
 When l came back into the room I found that he had put his map on paper. Indeed, he was busily mark in gthe names on it and bade me wait until he had finished it.
 "There." he said triumphantly a moment later. You can't go wrong now. Just turn to the left as you go out of the door-you see the house is marked with a cross-then walk to the corner, turn left, walk one block, turn right and walk along this long street for-but how would you like to have Mrs. Train go with you?'
