terial for decoration, or use two plain
materials Of contrasting color.
The dimensions of the pieces will de-
pend on the size of the figure for which
1T Is intended. The lower piece should
be measured from q normal waistline
and extended to q little below the
knees. It should be wide enough to
allow for gathering at the waistline.
For an average figure, 20 inches would
do for the length. with 81 for the
width. The bib should be about IA
inches wide at the base and about IL
inches in depth. The width at the top
should be about inches. Material
should be cut so as to allow for hens
or turning under at the edges.
The straps are attached to the top
Of the bib. They cross in the back,
and the strap from the right side then
goes forward under the arm to button
to the left side of the apron, while the
strap from the left side buttons at the
right side. For the average figure, they
should be about 81 inches long. The
free end Of each strap should be fin
ished with q buttonhole or a loop, and
there should be a corresponding button
at each side of the apron. These straps
when properly adjusted hold secure
without showing any disposition to slip
down over the shoulder AS a matter
OF convenience and decoration you
should add a small pocket at the right
side Of the front.

A Sermon for Today
Broken Cisterns.
BIZ REV. JOHN r. GUM.

Broken Cisterns.
They have forsaken Me, the foun-
tain of living waters, and hewed them
out cisterns, broken cisterns, that can
hold no water. "-Jer. i:13.
jeremiah refers to q national re-
ligious apoStasy in Israel. The people
had forsaken God, the fountain Of liv-
ing waters, and hewed them out cisterns
of goddess and worldly design, from
which they were seeking to satisfy the
cravings Of their souls. But their els
terms turn out to be broken cisterns
that can hold no water" Always there
is some flaw or crack out Of which the
water runs.
There are many in our time who need
to ponder the truth contained in the
symbolism employed by this ancient
prophet. God Is the fountain of living
waters. In other words, in fellowship
with God there Is full satisfaction for
all the capacities and desires of the
soul-conscience, will, understanding,
hope, love, fear. But the source of salts
faction and peace which may be found
in communion with God Is beyond the
comprehension of world minds. Hence
men of such minds run hither and
dissipation. Upon cisterns of amuse-
ments and sports and excitement they
spend much money and energy.
How vain are their efforts. All their
cisterns are found empty. There Is al
ways q crack somewhere, so that when
they come TO drink they find the water
has all run out. The satisfaction they
imagined them to hold is not there The
satisfaction afforded by these cisterns
that men hew out for themselves, II any
at all, is but fragmentary, leaving deep
yearning unStilled and unsatisfled.
The conduct of men, when they leave
God and seek other delights, Is like that
Of g. man digging q cistern in his yard
alongside a springing fountain. They
but spend their labor digging for the
water which all the while is flowing at
their side And yet, what multitudes
are today engaged in this laborious folly
Sooner or later they will be disappoint-
ed with the poor delights derived from
mere material things. For, apart from
God. all earthly gains and pleasures are
but broken cisterns.

down to a conventional court trial, with
Clara Bow playing the part Of the plain
TIT and Daisy De Doe occupying the
defendants chair.
Up to this moment the most heralded
trial In cinemaland of late years has
been precisely the reverse. But officials
of the studio which has millions a.
stake in the person of the flame-hairec
super-emotionaliSt have put the FOO
down, and when the gelatin foot goes
down hereabouts there is action and nc
fooling.
There will be no more spicy gloatine
over the Bow boy friends, their love

tiles in Clara's life. The case will hev
to the line, and such chips as may fall
will be legal chips, not morsels Of pru-
rient gossip for the vultures who are
gathered to feed.
But with Judge Doran's decision tc
keep the case strictly to business there
is great falling of in super

Party Ideas.
Have q patching partyl


Have a patching partyl
Maybe you never heard Of this sort
Of party, and maybe 1t sounds rather
absurd, but II you go about 1t in the
right way you can make . patching
party rs much Of q success as q bridge
party. And it has the advantage of be-
ing little different and is very useful
as well. One group of young married
women We know attended q patching
party with such success that they de-
cided to have a patching club, to meet
every week or two at the home OF one
Of the members.
Instead of playing bridge, the mem
berS do their mending or any sort OF
homely hand work that needs to be
done. It Is really very much like the
old-time sewing circles, only that these
modern young women have made q rule
not to indulge in gossip OF the tradi-
tional sewing circle sort, but to con-
fine their conversation to subjects that
are amusing and entertaining without
being personal or unpleasant.
By setting aside two or three hours
one afternoon week 1t Is possible to
do surprisingly large amount Of mend
ing and patching, and If you can get
this done and at the same time have
1le Jun VI party you bnouId count
yourself fortunate. In the little club
we speak Of there Is q rule that any
member who comes without needlework
of a practical, useful sort must help
some one else who has more than she
can do herself.
If there are more than four or I'VE
at your patching party, 1t Is q good
plain TO arrange some sort of progress
sion so that every guest will have an
opportunity Of talking with every other
guest.

Everyday Psychology
BY DIR. Jesse ". sPROwLs.
After Effects of Dreams.


Many persons upon meeting . total
stranger on the street experience q
feeling of familiarity. This accounts
for that occasional turn to take q sec
ond look. Sometimes you actually stop
the stranger and ask, Have not seen
you somewhere before2"
Such mistaken identities, undoubtedly
in many cases, can be accounted for on
the basis of actual similarities. Nearly
every one has q fairly good double
somewhere in the world Of human be-
ings.
But there is another reason for some
mistaken identities. We dream. And
our dreams are pictures. And these
pictures are combinations Of traits. We
formulate in our dreams individuals who
represent combinations Of traits pos
sesSed by persons we have actually
seen. Moreover, we now and then take
our dreams for actual experiences.
Children do this rather regularly.
The after-effectS Of dreams are by no
means confined to these occasional mis-
taken identities of persons.
Gases of historical paralysis have
been laid at the door of dreams. One
may dream of being paraly1ed in an
arm and on the following day actually
have such q paralysis. The dream image
in such cases is projected into and be-
comes a part Of the waking thought
experiences.
1t has long been known that we ex-
perience moods which we cannot ac-
count for. Sometimes these moods can
be traced back to some recent dream
experience.

ago, Just out of college, he worked as a
newspaper reporter in Cleveland. A
candidate for mayor gave him a job
in the campaign which called for quick
wit and otedness-setting up
hecklers in political meetings.
So well did he do the job that his
candidate was elected and Dill was Of
fered a place in the city hall. He de-
clined, saying that he was going West
and get ready to run for Congress.
He stopped in Iowa for a year and
taught school. Then he moved to
Washington, where he taught school
again and studied law on the side.
Politics came. He bounced around

in three or four campaigns. In 1914,
five years after reaching Washington
and four years after being admitted to
the bar, he won seat in Congress.
For two terms he sat in the House OF
Representatives as a kid" member and
as a Democrat. 1t was rare Tor his
State to have q Democrat in Congress,
would not change.
Next came the World War. Because
he had pledged himself to such q
course his vote was cast against Amer
ica's entry into the conflict. He be-
lieves this move cost him his seat in
Congress, for in, 1918 he was defeated.
For four years he was out. But in
1922 he was in again-not as q Repre-
sentative, but as a Senator And he
had the added satisfaction of knowing
that he was the first Democrat ever
elected to the Senate from the State of
Washington.
He is known in the Senate principal
ly because of his work in the radio
field. His colleagues consider him a
specialists on such legislation, and turn
to him for guidance when anything per-
tanning to radio hobs up.
He displayed his skill by putting
through the first major radio bill.
There are lots OF things about leg1sla-
ton Of this nature that the average
man would never think about.
But Dill had made q close study of
wave lengths and static for several
years. Passage Of this bill, bearing his
name as co-author, in 1927, gave him
wide reputation.
Radio Is his hobby. He has only one
other-writing numerous letters to his
constituents.

When 1900 clubwomen gathered >

ture of films and the danger Of their
children attending matinees where the
stars might be of caliber not At TO
cater to the enter tainment of little
children they came to the following

Either flm stars had to lead the sort

little children were living in the COM
munity or special films would have to
be made for the matinees to which
these little children would be sent
Lucille Gleason, who addressed the
women on the subject Of children's
films, made the following brilliant OBJ
Servation:
Little children are tired business
men on Saturday afternoons. You have
got to provide them with real enter
tainment, not feed them educational
films and newsreels which they should
be getting in their class rooms.
There has never been such hardness
in any branch Of educational endeavor
as In getting the educational gelatin
reel into the schools of America. No

devised, and yet We who make a fetish
! Of giving the young generation every
benefit that modern methods can de-
wise hold back from this most obvious
way Of furthering the progress Of to-
days education"

plan to introduce the French reel into
neighborhood theaters, q 15-minute les
son to be shown once each evening be-
