The Fashionable World Has Taken Up Hand Crocheed Costumes


It's impossible to escape the
wave of knitting that's sweep
ing the country now 1t really
started two or three years ago
when Europeans began wearing
hand knitted suits and bathing
suits. Americans soon followed
their lead, but few were ambi-
tious enough to Rllit their own.
Those who could afford it,
paid a 500 or so COR a beau
tiful hand-knittsd suit. Some
Of them came from Schiaparelli,
who made much uf her fame on
hand knitted things. Others
came from American designers
almost as famous. Then a few
courageous women started knit
ting their own. aLd when others
saw how easy 1t was, it fast
became the vogue it now is.
Cost Is Small
Even woven materials have
O. knitted look so fashionable
are the surfaces that are GRO
cheted or knitted. Formerly
knitted suits and dresses were
for sports only, but now that
the silks have entered the field,
some are made so that they
may be worn in the afternoon,
too. There are rumors about
of dinner clothes being knitted,
but so far they haven't been
seen in our town. Knitting
and crocheting is equally popu-
lar, though most people think
it is easier to knit a suit or
dress. It takes most women
three to six weeks to complete
a costume, just working in
their spare time, and Of course
the cost is a mere fraction Of
the price If you would buy
the garment, materials for most
dresses and suits running from
$40 to SIS.

upon dummy's K of diamonds.
Then w will take four club
tricks.
All that ABB will win with
such play will be one heart and
one diamond trick. Evidently,
that cannot be the best line Of
defense. If A.. after having led
his Ace of Diamonds, takes his
Ace of Hearts, he will win only
two tricks, giving the declarer
five-odd. Laying down aces from
tenaceS is bad business.
In case A does not open his
diamond suit, but decides to
lead his Ace of Hearts, what will
happen? Suppose that A leads
a second round of hearts and
dummy wins the trick. z can
lead a low diamond from dunn.
my and trump with his four.
He can lead a small heart and
ruff with dummy's Queen. Then
he may lead the Eight of Spades
and take four rounds Of trumpS,
picking up all opposing trumps.
After that w will win four club
tricks. Finally, z will give his
opponents one heart trick. Lay
ing down the Ace Of Hearts is
just as deadly as leading the
Ace of Diamonds, and must re-
suit in z making five-odd.
AS best defense is to lead a
trump. Dummy will win the
trick, and from it will be led
back the King of Hearts, fore
ing A into again leading. If A
again leads a trump, he will pre-
vent Y from ruffing one heart
trick. Dummy can win its one
heart trick then and there, and
the declarer can ruff himself
into the lead by leading a low
diamond from dummy. After
that he can pull AS two re-
manning trumps. Having pulled
all opposing trumps, z will run
off four solid club tricks.
Against two leads of trumps the
declarer can win only five spade
tricks, one heart trick and four
club tricks, making four-odd.
He must give ABB three heart
tricks, or two heart tricks and
one diamond trick.

When Manners

Birthday Card

Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
have known a young man
for quite some time. and occa-
sionally we go out together. We
are very good friends. His
mother, whom I have met once,
is to have a birthday very soon,
and it is on the same date as
mine. Do you think it would be
proper for me to send her a gift
or a card? If so, what would
be best to send-what kind of
gift or card? L.
My first inclination, in an
swering your question, is to tell
you that this gesture that you
plan would possibly seem a bit
forced" to the mother of this
, friend. But I'd like to modify
this judgment by saying that
much depends on the nature of
that 'fonce" that you met the
mother. II, for instance, it was
at her home for dinner, say,
probably, you got to know her
fairly well, and so sending her
a box Of flowers for her birth.
day would not seem out of
order. But if, on the other
hand, you met her only once, in
a very casual way, it would
seem that you would make a
social error in sending her a
birthday greeting.
Don't, in either case, send her
a birthday present. You might
send her a message, such as q
birthday note, or telegram, or
card, but the nearest thing to a
gift would be a box of flowers,
1nclosing your card with a birth
day message on it.

Your Health
And Diet
By LOGAN GLENDENING, M. D.

By LOGAN GLENDENING, M. D,
Animals in a wild state do not
appear to suffer from infections
of the nose and throat. They
do not have any condition which
is like mouth breathing in city
bred children, and until, they
get old they are never deaf.
deafness in young people is
most frequently due to invasion
of infection from the throat to
the ear by way of the eustach-
ian tube.)
With this idea in mind, re-
cent studies indicate that it is
advisable to try to train chill
dren to keep their upper respi-
ratory passages clear. Regular
morning exercises are instituted,
the purpose being to expel the
secretionS and produce aeration
Of the nose and nasal sinuses.
A deep breath is taken and ex.
PEELED forcibly, with both nos
trilS absolutely free to prevent
back pressure into the ear. The
exercise is repeated six or eight
times in succession, once or
twice daily! IF the material
from the nose and sinuses is too
thick, dry and sticky to be suf-
ficiently removed by these regu'
lar air douches, they are pre-
ceded by the administration Of
mild boric acid solution.
The opinion is growing that
the adenoids have an important
function in the body, and when
nasal infection is present in chill
dren they do most Of the work
Of combating it. =.
A London physician points out
that the nasal sinuses begin to
develop at about the age Of 5
years. At this time the perma-
nent teeth pass into their adult
position and the whole phySiol-
ogy Of the mouth and throat
changes. Up to the age Of S, if
a child inhales white powder,
it passes through the nose into
the back Of the throat. After
this age, the powder is disposed
Of by the nose and its secre
tions. # this be true, in chill
dren under the age Of 5, dust
and bacteria which pass through
the nose, as does the white
powder, will light on the ade-
noids and apparently the func-
ton Of the adenoidS is to dis
pose Of this material. After the
age of S, the adenoids ordinarily
disappear automatically.

Madame Lucien Lelong was
seen at the last Palace Gala
with Baron Maurice de Roth
Schild, and she wore a very
fine black velvet dress which
was slightly ribbed, and which
clung to her figure when she
danced. Over the dress, she
wore a very short bolero of
black velvet with a tiny white
embroidered design on it which
was worked on the bias in a
number Of different cut-up
squares. The bolero was fas-
tened with a diamond pin, and
she wore two diamond stars in
her hair. She wore black cut
