 Here's a marvelously slimming model that into the bargain will be found very simple to fashion.
 1t has various points that have been well thought out. For instance, take the tapering movement of the hipline. It gives charming length to the figure, and emphasizes the smooth fit of the hips. The be- coming open V neck1ine rolled in revers is slimming. It may be worn without the tiny vest inf desired. The short sleeves too are a com- fortable length with shaped cuffs that give the arms a slim appear lance.
 Printed crepe silk is a lovely me- |dium with the contrast in blending plain crepe. It is so utterly smart for immediate wear. It will be found so useful for spring days that will soon be here.
 And to make 1t! The bodice cuts in one until it joins the skirt. Think of it! Just a few seams to be joined. Style No. 215 may be had in sizes 36, 3S, 40, AZ, A and 46 inches bust. Spring, the season of prettiest styles, will soon be here. Prepare now by ordering a copy of our new Fashion Magazine. Attractive styles for women, misses and children. And Instructive lessons in sewing. Price of BOOK 10 cents. Price of PATTERN IS cents in stamps or coin (coin is preferred) Wrap coin carefully.

NANCY PAGE The Three Lacey Girls Make
 a Springlike Trio
 Hv El0rence rAa Ganke.
By Florence La Ganke.

With the first warm days the Lacey girls wanted to discard their winter outfits and sally forth in new spring clothes. Fortunately Mrs La- cey had some of their clothes ready for them. The three girls had we'll tailored coats of tweed. The coats n.pped in at the waist, had shawl collars, patch pockets. Because the air was still rather chilly the scarves of gay colored plaid were sensible as well as good looking. The hats which the trio wore had brims which shaded the eyes. These brims held the shape well because they were closely stitched with row on row of machine stitching.
 With these outfits the girls wore oxfords. Claire had reached the age where socks were taboo, but Judith and Pam still wore them and liked them. But they wanted them plain. Claire's outfit consisted of the coat with skirt to match which was worn with a linen blouse. The skirt was made with the inverted front pleat. This skirt was similar to the one which had created so much favorable comment a few weeks before. All of the school girls had wanted to use it as model or r.attern.

The instant that the wig wal swept from her head Sue knew that Sybil had recognized her, that the girl in disguise would find a way of escaping now.
 But she mustn't know that rec ognized her." Sue told herself fran tically. "She must think she's safe" !"
 With that she turned to the man who was gazing at her with stupid wonder in his eyes. ''I'm taking the place of girl who couldn't work tonight. And I came in masQuer- ade so the taxicab company wouldn't object. That's all.''
 She waited for SybiIs reaction. An appeal to her sympathy, under the supposition that she was really a man, seemed to be the most real- istic way of getting by, Sue decided.
 T hope you won't report me" she addressed the dark figure on the back seat. ''The friend I'm helping needs the money badly and would lose her job if the company found out that I'm doing this. I'd appre- ciate it lot if you would just forget about it.
 T heard that Miss Sarah Slade was going in for this sort of thing. <AIc yOu ncI
 At Sybils words Sue had sud- den flash of intuition which showed her the game that Sybil was play ing which brought the knowl- edge that Sybil was working hard to get at the basis of the whole sit- uation in order to protect her inter- ests.
 "Yes it's Sarah. But how di you know? Do you know her ?" Sue asked, and the surprise in her voice was natural because it had not quite grasped the whole play. If Sybil could be led to think that she was replacing Sarah, then she would take her word and think of her as a substitute
 "But she couldn't think was playing a part to catch her anyway. She knew I had no way of knowing that she intended to signal cer- tain taxicab at a certain corner to- night. But now she'll try to get rid Of me ..
 The man had listened for star | tied minute, then climbed into his own car and pulled out, evidently afraid that he would be involved in | full. Relieved, Sue replaced the wig and turned to the taxicab. But just as she did. the engine throbbed and the car started down the road. the door which Sue had opened to talk to Sybil swaying drunkenly in the night. As the car passed Sue 1 reached up, grabbed it. and fell on l her knees on the running board. Very stealthily then, glad that Sybil's eyes were focused on the road after the speedometer and the clock as she tried to make her train. Sue pulled herself onto the floor of the back seat and lay very still. She didn't dare move. Sybil must never know that she was there. She would

He won't pay attention!" Ever hear it before? I've heard it so much from par ents and teachers alike that I look led up this interesting little word in my psychology.
 It is always bad to lift unsup- ported sentences from treatise and quote them fatly without qualification. but I think these few sentences may be passed on safely without attendant explanation. My idea is to show that words rather complicated things and this
 question of attention is no excep- tion.
 Breese says: What is common ly spoken of as inattention is not
 state of attention at all, but ab- solute non-attention. When we
 say that a school boy is inatten-
 tive to his lessons it is often times
 true that he is deeply attentive to something else-the drawing of the teacher he is making or the
 bent pin that he intends placing on
 the seat of his enemy across the
 aisle. The enterprise on which he
 is engaged has completely displac- ed the lesson. There is. however,
 q positive state of attention which
 has inappropriately been called in-
 attention. It is attention of low
 order and exists in the general
 forms of wandering attention and
 dispersed attention
 "In wandering attention con-
 sciousness is unstable, fitting from
 one thing to another so rapidly
 that it is inefficient.
 ] "In dispersed attention objects
The Waterbury Democrat., 1931-03-13

and ideas do not stand out clearly and distinctly. Mental states are
 not Localized sharply, and so con- sciousness is blurred and hazy, These two forms of attention are frequently the signs of inanition, aenemia, a general lowered bodily condition, fatigue, or even of a
 mental disease"
 That is not hard to understand, | is it?
 Early Impressions Important The next is a bit more involved, but 1t shows an interesting point.
 He says, ''The particular way we
 may attend to the given stimulus (the thing we are being attentive to) is determined by the way we
 have perceived it in the past, and by the nature of our consciousness
 at that time; the way by which we attend to the ringing of bell
 outside for instance-whether we
 know it to be a street car bell or
 that of a bakers wagon-depends
 on our past experiences and our present surroundings"
 He explains the last paragraph
 by going into mental processes and
 associated ideas, but we need not bother with that. The thing I | want to stress in both of these paragraphs is that the child's att tention will always be vague and
 dissipated if his previous impress
 sions have not been clear, or if he | is not interested.
 That is why teachers and par ents should make sure that things are clear to children at the time if they expect undivided attention
 later on. It is thing that builds up as time goes on. Vagueness
 merely adds to vagueness.
 | Little children cannot focus att tention on one thing for very long
 at a time. And all of us have our
 limits. It is physically impossible for any one to concentrate on one thing absolutely for longer than
 so many minutes at a time. And Interest should be the basis of all lattention as far as possible.
