MOTHERS DAY.
BeoutifuI Sentiments On SignificCnce of Wcrd-Wide Observonce Tomorrow an Honor of HER" Expressed in Prose aud Poetry
 bu P J. Fgnhertu
6y P. J. Fl0herty

Mothers Day. though young in its conception commemo- rates an event in world hiss tory that has failed to enter the human mind in past ages.
 Linking the dawn of crea- tion to the present day, there is no one holds a-more loving string to the living heart through all those ages with deeper veneration than moth- CT.
 The sacred word of mother is instilled within us in our cradle period. It is planted in our budding intellect by Gods unerring h an d and through all ages it is the first word that's poured forth from our tender lips. ,. From the hour W h we z first saw the light of day, there was one guardian assign ed by God to guide us on to paths of truth and virtue, and exempting all others, there was only one to. fulf1ll h a t sacred duty and that person was mother.
 Debt to Mother
 The debt the world owes to mother can never be repaid by it's offspring. Fro m the hour that she enters the sacred chambers of motherhood till the day when the h hand of death seals her watchful eyes \ her earthly cares and sacri- fices are beyond the sphere of mans comprehension.
 Through all those years of intending strife, mother has given to the world the making of history in all things gor- geous and sublime. In all things great claimed by man whether within the confines of the peasants cot or basking in the luxuries of 1ordly halls, chalmers of those accomplish ments were rocked by mother in the cradle of infancy.
 Plodding along through years from the early dawn of childhood that sleepless eye was ever on the alert. guiding as to channels, leading only to a haven of peace, sincerity, and rest.
 Let us then set aside a frac- tional part of our leisure hours to revert our thoughts to the sacred memory of mother and weigh in our inmost hearts the workings of her as seen from our own surroundings.
 Not deceiving ourselves in treading the narrow path of honesty, can we consciously gaze back on our trodden trail and secure proofs we were following the footsteps of mother.
 Her Worth
 It's only when she's gone that we realize her worth on earth, and the only relic then within our reach is her mem ory. If we honor that sacred memory, we can do so by pay ing tribute to same on the day assigned for that great occasion.
 Mothers day is set aside for her loving memory.
 It gives to all that golden opportunity to do her honor whether living or dead. If liv- ing let us bow with venera- tion to Gods intending bless ings in having her in our midst here on earth.
 If dead, let us offer up our prayers to satisfy her wishes in her bright celestial h o m above.
 Mothers, may your years on earth be fed by the fruits

stone buttons add sparkle to the cos
tune. The hat OF quilted silk Is very
unusual suggests Egyptian inspira-
ton.
The other gown Is likewise made Of
black silk chiffon. The waist-deptn
jacket Is done In all-over exQuisItely
fine accordion pleating. The blouse
and the softly tied and pleated sash
are OF bright vermilion silk chiffon.
The classic arrangement Of this sash
obviously suggests Grecian influence.
The Greek trends are reflected In every
realm OF fashion, ranging from evening
gowns to beach costumes. Beach wraps
are so designed as to fall over the
shoulder In classic cascade pleats.
Then there are the lovely white chif-
fon evening gowns that are all-over
pleated and 60 trailing In grace with
pleated capelike scarfs which fall over
the shoulder In most picturesque
fashion.
One outcome of Greek influence is
the vogue which calls for fat-heeled
Grecian sandals. The smartest Pari-
slennes are wearing them fashioned OF
gilt leather. Picture a gown OF Greek
inspiration made OF white crepe. The
sculptured classic look Is accented
with handsome gold cord with tas-
sells about the waist. Gilt leather
Greek sandals add the final touch.
The Hindu turban which the lady
to the left in the illustration is wear
ing Is noteworthy In that advance
millinery showings are placing par
tlcular stress on the Importance OF
Handicapped turbans for immediate
wear with ones midsummer frocks.
These charming turbans and berets
are made either OF black or white crepe
or chiffon. AS you see In the picture
the thin fabric Is twisted and SHRED
In interesting fashion. "A new look Is
achieved this season for berets and
turbans OF Oriental inspiration In that
they are worn, In some instances, back
off the forehead.

CEEKING new fashion thrill7 Here
- 1t Is and rather startling one
when 1t comes to something diff
ferent." It's the draped silhouette
either OF Hindu or classic Greek infiu-
ence. Look for 1t this fall, for draped
fulness is on the way. AS a matter
OF fact 1t has already arrived.
For quite some time Paris designers
have been giving these draped effects
a good tryout In evening wraps and
gowns. When Schiaparelll and Alix
and others first displayed gowns that
either went harem or were daringly
draped la Hindustan and when artful
pleatings went classic Greek and the
sarI and the hiram headscarf made
their dramatic appearance, they Gre
ated no end of excitement In fashions
domain. The venture went over with
such overwhelming success style Gre
ators were led to adopt the idea of
Grapes and pleats as workable form
ula In the designing of the new fall
and winter modes.
The oriental influence which Is be-
Ing no dramatically exploited this
season Is shown In the costume to the
right In the picture. The front full
ness which Is a characteristic feature
OF the newer fashions is achieved
through both shirring and draplng. AS
the season progresses the Importance
OF front fulness will become Increas-
lngly apparent. The new softly styled
fr0cks, the new separate skirts and
the new coats all emphasize this trend
In harmony with this idea OF front
fulness comes the vogue of draped
bodices The most important feature
OF these smartly draped bodIces Is that
their technique involves the use Of
gathers and fulness that seems to radl-
ate from the shoulder line.
1t Is also significant that this stun
ming gown Is made OF chiffon for the
formal afternoon gown OF filmy black
Is proving favorite among best
dressed women. The square rhine

WILL ROGERS
Greatly Loved American

VIII Rogers, Oklahoma cowboy
whose homely philosophy endeared him
to the hearts of millions, Is dead. The
wreckage of the plane In which he
and Wiley Post, famous flier, were
seeking new adventures was found
where 1t had fallen about Is miles
south of Point Barrow, Alaska, north
ernmost white settlement In America.
Thus ended In tragedy the career Of
the ranch hand who had made millions
laugh-probably the greatest and best
known comedian of his day. His in
tense interest in aviation caused him
to undertake the hazardous flight with
Post over the Wilds of the Far North.
For many years he had Travelled the
skyways. and In his newspaper column
had been one of commercial avla-
tons strongest supporters. That fly
ing should have caused his death L.
one of fate's grim ironies.
Rogers career reads almost like fc-
ton. He was born at Ollogah In In
dian territory. November 4. 1879. He
attended the Willie Hassell school at
Neosho Mo-. and also the kemper
Military academy at Boonville for a
short time. From that humble be-
ginning he rose to become the intimate
companion Of the great men of the
world.
