mind. You'll probably find one
that was made with you in mind.
Inspired by the gay nineteen
hundreds, a smart fine felton,
navy wool suit faunts a pert
peplum, and has the new Gibson
Girl silhouette. Its shoulders are
padded and pulled to exaggerate
their width, with the express pur-
pose, of course, of minimizing
your hips and making your limbs
look slender and tapering.
1t has wide, faring lapels and
buttons right down the front, with
very narrow leather belt around
a high waiStline, to emphasize the
peplum. The skirt has little godets
in front to repeat the peplum's
flare.
With this the new Maria Guy
go-to-fez hat is done in white,
with a little stand-offis ribbon
fancy at one side, the color of the
suit. White gloves, blue pumps
with stitched stripings, a blue
purse and a soft, white satin
blouse with tie collar complete
the smart Easter picture.
VERY original is black gigolo
v suit, neat, smart, unusual.
it's diminutive jacket is fitted, has
very wide shoulders and tight,
straight sleeves.
The trim skirt fits up to high
waistline and buttons down the
side with the button holes out
lined in the novelty red, white and
black printed silk that fashions
the blouse and the great pointed
revers of the coat. This print also
lines the coat.
With this is worn the new Maria
Guy coachman hat that is such a
furOre. If girl is the kind who
can wear it, it is smart as no other
hat is smart this year.
OXfOrds, of trim, tailored cut,
with the new punchWork holes for
decoration, make a suitable addi-
ton to this suits appearance.
Much easier to wear than either
of these suits is a chartreuse green
and gray striped WOODEN dress
maker one. 1t has a simple skirt,
and its silk blouse is the chart
reuse.
The coat is an easy, surplice cut,
with the new short sleeves that let
the blouse show for cuffs. 1t
fastens with single button of
the wool.

! There is never anything wrong in

MODERN GIRL.
AnsWer-At your age almost every
young person is engaged in a strug-
gle for freedom from parents.
Sometimes it is not so obvious as
it is in your case. but it is there
just the same. It is a struggle
which must be won if they are to
learn to live in the world independ-
emily.
The wise parent knows exactly
what is happening and encourages
the child to make the break How
ever, it's smart girl or boy who
retains the parents as advisers. l
can not tell from your letter wheth-
er your mother has any real ground
for her objections, which are hid
den from you, or whether she is
motivated by prejudice. Talk with
her sympathetically and try to find
out for yourself.
Dear Jane Jordan-There is a
young boy who seems to be very
fond Of me and of him, but 1
have found out that I am over a
year older than he is. 1t makes
me feel like I am robbing a cradle
or something. Do you think 1
should stop seeing him. or what
must I do? DOUBTFUL.
Answer I can't see why such a
slight difference in ages should
make any difference in your frend-
ship. If you're having a good time
together, that's all that matters.
