What's in Fashion?
Blossoms AdOYn Summer FrOCkS
Directed By AMOS PARRISB---
directed BIZ AMOS PARRISH

NEW YORK, June 2s.-Like the
~ garden of Mary, Mary, Quite
Contrary" fashions garden has
blossomed out with all sorts Of I'M
expected blooms. No cockleshells or
silver bells, but organdie roses, felt
camellias, pique pinks and gingham
gardenias.
Flowers have sprouted on thou
sands Of smart summer costumes.
Big ones bloom at night; smaller
ones by day.
The favorite spot for q. gay bios
som to appear in the daytime is
right at the point Of the neckline as
in the top illustration
They're worn alone or in pairs.
Alone they either match or contrast
with the dress. In pairs, one should
match and one contrast.
Flower of Same Print
And when the dress is printed,
most often the flower is of the same
print
If you want TO freshen up dress
of one of the fashionable dark sheer
fabrics, you can't do better than
to fasten on white organdie flower
And those quaint cross barred or
candies make your flower as inter-
esting as new cross breed of roses.
Suits and tailored dresses like the
crisp jaunty air of pique blossoms.
Plain white ones, fresh as a June
daisy Checks or plaided piques in
strange new floral varieties.
When you come to pick your night
blooming series, you'll find that
fashion has given free play to
Imagination. And you can do so,
too.
Ragged Pique Blossoms Used
Judith Anderson, we'll known
stage favorite, wears a dress be-
lowered scarf-wise as the one in
the lower figure.
Channels pique evening dress has
ragged pique flowers made into gar
lands for shoulder straps. Armlets
of flowers are worn almost up to the
shoulder.
Hats come in for their share of
flowers, too, and pet idea of many
fashionables is to wear on the hat a
flower of the dress material.

Among the activities of the league
are the programs of occupational
therapy and recreation, employed in
veterans hospitals; the aid to dis
abled ex-service men and women,
including those in financial stress,
physical incapacity, lack of family
connections and advancing years.
Another objective of the over
seas League is to obtain government

en-, whether they served with the
army, navy or civilian bodies, such
as the American Red Cross and the
Salvation Army.
The convention delegates will visit
the convalescent quarters at Saw
telle veterans hospital, where Mrs.

beach club, garden tea at San
Gabriel; attendance at the Holly
wood bowl followed by Chow" and

overseas women who may accom-
pany their mothers (and who later
may be formed into junior auxil-
larry of the group a special nursery
committee" has been appointed.
From the unit in Paris, France,
the only unit outside of the United
States to be represented, several
delegates are to attend, one to bring
her small son.

trip by boat, some by motor, and
some by airplane, but the ma jority

convention train which will reach
Los Angeles at 9:15 Sunday morn
ing, July 3, at the Southern Pa

Feathers, Eggs, Mules

Statistics often make dull reading.
Once in a While, however, they burst
with interest approaching that of a
| mystery" play and galvanize an in
different audience into lively curiosity.
Consider, If you please, recent fig
ures issuing from the Department of
Agriculture in Washington, revealing
the queerest disparity in the prices of
things animate and inanimate in va
rious sections of the United States.
Just why must housewives on the
Atlantic seaboard pay twenty 1.-TWO
cents a pound for chicken when their
lucky sisters in North Dakota get it
for nine? There is, of course, the OBJ
vious answer to the puzzle even tho
its consolation be but scanty. The
Rhode Island Red--the higher price is
the one ruling in the Unions smallest
state--is bird of very fine, not to
say expensive, feather.
When it comes to eggs one is less
surprised, although the range of cost,
jumping from seven cents in favored
Texas to twenty-five is Massachus-
etts, is bit startling But then,
there has always been so much differ
ence in the eggs themselves. For ex-
ample, in the days Of "rotten" bor-
oughs in England, when electioneering
lacked that finer sensibility SO con-
spicuous III our modern politician,
thrifty shopkeepers displayed signs
which read: "New-laid eggs, two shill-
ings a dozen; fresh eggs, one shilling
a dozen; eggs for election purposes,
tuppence u Dozen"
There is a silver lining, though, to
this dark cloud of untoward prices.
1t is seen in Montana. A resident of
New York with a hankering for a
mule must first find STA in order to
indulge his fancy. If fortunate enough
to live in the Bonanza" state the
trifling sum of $34 will bring one to
his backyard gate. And considering
the suspense in action and the "kick"
which any self-respecting mule can
contribute to the comedy of daily
driving, the latter price seems all too

Camp Life Draws
Farm HOmemakers
Will Abandon Kitchens And Dish
Washing to Answer Call of the
Outdoors

Several hundred Ohio farm women
will say goodby to their Kitchens,
busting, sweeping, and scores of other
household chores this summer when
they attend one of the several vaca-
tion camps in the state conducted by
the extension service in agriculture
and home economics at the state uni
versity.
The average duration of a camp, she
says, is three days and the average
cost is dollar day. Although trans
portation costs to and from the camps
are likely to be considerably more
than the actual camp fees, even this
cost may be reduced if several women
about the same community plan to at
tend camp in a group.
All farm women's camps which will
be held during July and August are
planned primarily for rest and recrea-
tion. They provide facilities to enjoy
outdoor life with other farm women
and to participate in such activities as
sings, games, vespers, and in some
cases, nature study, handicraft work,
or some other field of interest to the
rural homemaker.
