We've learned our lesson in
pique pretty well. We've learned
that most street dresses and suits
have a dash Of white this spring,
and more often than not, it is
pique. We know it's crisp, fresh
look, and it's ability to give life
to a costume. We've haunted
the stores waiting for the pique
gloves to come in, and we've
stepped forth in our first pair
with pardonable pride on the
first warm day. But now it's
time to learn our lesson in linen.
Not that pique has had its day.
Far from it, for it's at its height
now, but linen is here, too.
With Silk FrOcks
AS an accent and accessory
fabric, linen is just a tiny bit
newer than pique. But that Is
news only for the very particu-
lar women who want to be up
to the latest moment. Linen
has taken Fifth Avenue by
storm, I'm told, and is seen in
every shop window. Women on
Park Avenue are showing lapels
and flowers of linen on their
coats and suits, and have a
jacket Of linen over q elk dress.
They seem to make q diStinc-
tion, wearing linen for daytime
and pique for evening. And re-
ports add that they send their
linen jackets and lapels to the
laundry, getting them back as

They've Been MAD" for Five
T.. Years
Dear Miss Fairfax:
Five years ago I went with a
girl for whom I cared very
much, and I'm sure she cared
for me. At the time I was 60
ing with her I was a little shy
and hardly took her anywhere.
One day we had an argument
and we stopped speaking to
each other.
I still care for this girl as
much as I ever did, and I'm
sure she still cares for me, be-
cause some of my friends tell
me she has said so. I'd like to
go back to her, but I don't like
to give in, and I'm sure she
won't give in.
At the present I am not in
a position to take her out, be-
cause lost my job. I've lost
all my shyness, and will do
anything you think is right.
s. K.
Five years is a long time to
waste out Of ones youth in
dulging in childish tantrumS
of being mad: and the idea
of mot giving in" is about
equally foolish. You say you've
gotten over being shy. Just
prove it by going up and speak
ing to that girl the next time
you meet her. Good luck to
you in the venture!

It is a normal and aver
age reaction to be sensitive;
that, in fact, is a distinctly
human trait. Being over-sensi-
tive, however, is quite another
story.
For over-sensitive persons
surely suffer. They are always
waiting and watching for the
slightest suggestion or jndica-
ton that they are being
neglected, disregarded, or
scorned; that they are not want
ed; that they are unacceptable
or not liked; that people are
talking about them or poking
fun at them. And invariably, Of
course, their feelings are hurt.
Indeed, over-SensitiveneSS may
actually become a torment; an
obsession that is .ever-present;
a consuming worry that snaws
at the very soul, and makes it's
posseSsor utterly miserable.
The antidote for over-senSi-

popular parlance as the ''hard-

If you can make yourself feel
that you don't care a rap what

How silence pours its balm into
the heart
Which has been stabbed by
shrill and piercing sound
Until its straining fibers sting
and smart
And shrink in dread from every
blatant sound!
Sweet music SootheS; but there
are days when song
Is not so sweet as silence clos
ing down;
Silence, serene, whose blessing
lies along
The ways of life like sunlight's
golden gown!
When words must fail, through
grief, through joy. through
dread,
The silent message leaps from
mind to nina,
1mparting all that has been
left unSaid
BY futile speech. All, silence,
strong and kind,

Give me your miracle Of peace
