"HE new collections OF daytime
clothes show a delightful as
sortment of variety in type,
i color scheme and fabric. One
smart frock follows another In
an unending chain Of Spring and
Summer fashions. Daytime frocks
look equally important, whether they
are cut in one or two pieces. The lat
ter type takes more time dressing, SO
limitations of it have sprung up in
one-piece models with hipline seam
ingS.
A stunning frock is shown today.
It is made in one piece. along tailored
lines, tempered by softness in the
knotted tie at the throat. For Sum-
mer sports and general wear this is
a perfect model and one that Is within
easy reach Of all.
Dropped shoulders eliminate the

give a smooth, unbroken line through
the shoulders. A front-panel treat

CEA DOG Is nautical parlance for

is reminiscent Of q colorful chapter
In English history.
In the early days of Elizabeth the
Huguenots licensed privateers. whose
lawful occupation it was to prey on
French commerce.
These piratical carriers became
known as sea dogs because, in effect,
they were actually set upon foreign
vessels.
In the course Of time sea dog lost
this unsavory connotation and came
to be used INTERCHANGEABLE with old
salt and other terms to designate a
man of the sea.

Random Notes

A reader of the Tribune asked our
opinion on the sum clearance project.
Our position might have been under
stood from our comments 10 a recent
issue of this paper.
The purpose of building the low cost
houses is to afford the people who have
to occupy small rooms the opportunity TO
live in better houses. But if the cost of
the buildings be too high with the coz
sequent forcing of rents beyond the peo
pies ability to pay. the purpose of the
slum clearance will be defeated. In
other words, if two room house is to
cost 50 90 or S. 90 month the poorer
people will not be able TO rent these
houses and will be compelled to seek the
old time buildings which will not exceed
81. 80 month for a single room.
This advice is given now when the
cost of building the houses must be con
sidered.
