'WOuId It be correct for a bride

Should they be addressed to Mr..

Dark blue business suits are
such informal attire for the men
in the wedding party, that the
bride, to be consistently dressed,
would wear a street-length dress.
However, if you have your heart
set on wearing the informal, floor.
length chiffon dress, it won't be
too inappropriate.
At your informal 4 o'clock we'd
ding it would be best form for
you to wear a hat of a type appro-
pirate to your ensemble.
The brides mother would wear
an afternoon ensemble, with a hat.
It is for the bride to decide
whether she wishes her matron
Of honor and her bridesmaid to
walk Singly or together. Either is
correct. 1t depends somewhat,
too, on the cloSeneSs of their
relationship to the bride.
For instance, If the matron Of
honor is the brides sister, and
the bridesmaid friend Of the
brides, then she would probably
want to have the sister walk alone,
directly in front Of her and her
father.
These two attendants usually
are dressed in different colors, but
they may be dressed identically,
if you wish, and especially If you
decide to have them walk together.
Yes, you send invitations to
members of the bridal party. And,
most definitely, if the attendants
are married, the invitations should
be addressed to Mr.. and Mrs.

fresh vegetables are needed. Crisp
green salad greens that appeal to
the eye as well as the appetite
are necessary.
In some cases leftover vege-
tables can be blended with fresh
vegetables.
In order for your salad to be
served correctly the vegetables
must be crisp and chilled. Wash
them as soon as you bring them
from market and place them in
the refrigerator in the vegetable
bin, or an alright jar, or wrap
them in wax paper.
In preparing the lettuce, remove
the core before washing 1t.
Bunches of watercreSs should be
united and floated in lots Of water
after draining and trimming. Pack
very loosely in a covered jar, as
the leaves will turn dark If they
are bruised.
Radishes should be united,
washed, and the coarser leaves
and roots removed before being
stored. Dandelion green's, ro-
maine, eScarole, and chickery all
need careful washing.
Here are some salad recipes
adapted to serving six persons:

Foreigners visiting this country
are always favorably impressed
with the style and beauty Of the
American business girl. Invari-
ably, they will tell us, they are
fascinated with these brilliant,
well-groomed young persons, not
only their appearance but their
poise and assurance.
They always try to theorize on
the subject, and sometimes we
hear it said the reason for the
American girls assurance is be-
cause she knows she may go as far
as her ability and charm will per-
NIT, and is not retarded by any
caste or social restrictions.
It is true, her complete indie
pendence may be one of the
reasons for her distinction, but
there is nothing haphazard about
her daily beauty and health SEIZED
ule either.
She has a sense of good taste
in her business dress, and never
makes the mistake of finishing
out her old afternoon gowns or
fluffy chiffons for office wear, as
was done in the gay nineties, when
clothes had to be worn out be-
fore they were discarded. She
may wear soft or fluffy collars
or the usual prints, linens or cot
tons for summer, but they are
well cut, and her sports clothes
are always correct and simple.
Her hose are put on with the
seam straight in the back, and

This is usually done about the

like to wait until just before they

apply a new makeup. This will
account for the clean loneliness

About three weeks ago, this
column published a little piece
about kissing. It carried a
plea to girls, please don't be

tracts from a girls letter, won

boy friend, who walked on the

GIFT HORSES
The gist of the letters which
have come to this column from
young men in reply to my article
is that casual kisses-those which
don't mean very much to either
the kiSSer or kisSee-are a good
deal like gift horses, which, the
adage tells us, must not be looked
in the mouth. Here are q few
extracts from boys letters:
Dear Miss Fairfax:
"Of course, I kissed her; who
wouldn't? She always turned her

she didn't protest too much when

tirely different angle:

Most Of the pictures you see in
the fashion magazines point to
this trend. Occasionally for eve
ming you will see the hair swept up
from the back, and it is lovely on
the right person, formal and regal
looking. Everything must be regal
these days.) But most women
find some hair closer to the neck
much more becoming. And so
down goes the general line Of the
hair in the back.
Curls Are LOOser
Curls are looser and looser, some
of them seeming to be impractical,
so soft and flat are they. You
must have q really good permanent
to make them stay in. The day OF
little tight curls seems to have
gone out entirely, and nothing
dates" you quite so much, unless
you are a distinctive type that
needs a special hairdress, using
little curls.
Another fashion that has become
almost unanimous Is sickness OF
crown and less wave everywhere
in the hair, where curlS are not
used. You'll find some of the
loveliest done with the hair swept
right back off the face and per.
fectly straight. The curls come
behind the straight effect, and
they too should be flat, SO that the
general contour is far from fuSSy;
in fact, is very quiet and subdued,
sleek and smart.
Back Rolls Longer
The page boy effect in the back
persists, though now we find it
often turned the other way-the
hair rolled to give much the same
silhouette, but rolled up instead
of under. Soft curls are arranged
on the back Of the neck to give
this same line, too.
Some of the loveliest things that
are being done have sleek hair
on the sides, drawn right Up for
a slender look to the face, curls
on top, a sleek crown, and a npll
in the back, not necessarily dropped
so low, but all the way across the
back, much as we wore IL a couple
of years ago. So you'd better start
letting your back hair grow q bit.
Permanent Wave Necessary
If you haven't a new permanent
(providing your hair isn't natural
ly curly, Of courSe), you should
certainly get one now before the
summer rush gets any worse than
it Is already. The basis of even
this years sickness is a good
foundation, which means a fresh
and well-done permanent, for
straight hair just doesn't stay in
place the way permanently waved
hair does, even If you want it
sleek and straight.
Hair ornaments Of the daintier,
lovelier type are much In the
fashion picture. With butterflies
used so much, what could be
smarter than small one on each
side of your head, if your couture
demands two, or one bit larger,
tucked somewhere among your
curls? Butterflies come in prac-
tically every smart material from
composition to lace. Your own
lovely real jewel clips and pins
are just as smart in your hair as
they are in your clothes, too.
Flowers are still used, but in ar
rangements specially designed for
the costume or for the hair.

0NLY 40 of the original settlers V at Jamestown, in 1907. re. niained by the end of that year, and these suffered from disease and starvation. Among them was Capt. John Smith, soldier of for. tune and bold adventurer. De. termined to save the colony, Smith visited the hostile Indians and" gained their friendship, but not before he had been captured and saved from death by Poca. hontas, daughter of the Indian chief, Powhatan. He brought back corn for the white settlers, and increased their farm land.
 Additional colonists came and, in two years, Jamestown had . population of 500. Smith was its governor, but late in 1909, he re- turned to England. In 1914 he led another band of colonists to America, explored the coast of New England, and was about to settle there when a French war.' ship took him and his followers prisoner. He died in 1881, at the age of Sl years.
 His portrait appears on the one. cent stamp of the three issued in 1907 on the tercentenary of the founding of Jamestown.

pear, and yucca growths.
 For about Q quarter mile it fol- lowed 6 flat stream bed, dry nine- tenths of the time, directly against cliff some 300 feet high. The stiff was more than straight up - it actually leaned over the water course, due to the occasional floods that had cut its base away.
 They were chugging along there when - SPLOW-W-W - right at them, directly in front, a boulder larger than 6 barrel fell from the cliff
 A mass of loosened earth and rocks followed. Dust enveloped the car.
 Of one accord the men shouted warnings, jumped for safety.
 The car hit the fallen mass and stalled. It hadn't been travelling fast enough to smash itself against the rock.
 Silas ran back a few yards, looked up at the sky which was still glowing slightly from the sunset.
 He jerked out pistol and fired rapidly at the cliff rim.
 Somebody poked his head over up there!" he called to his dad.
 Old man Colter was too aston- lshed, and frightened, to act or talk sensibly for a few miutes. He realized their escape had been miraculous. Soon, though, he darted back to the car and got his own gun, a rifle.
 They studied the rim for a long time, craning their necks and peering at 1t from ambush. They saw no more sign of life.
 That there rock was pushed over!" silas declared, and his father nodded.
 They stalked, silently, around the base and up e canyon that would give them acess to the cliff top. But 1t took more than half an hour and they found nothing when they got there. Nothing but signs where the rock had lain, uiAd ido VI uSAlOl OAl AAA huHG VI the cliff. It was extremely dis tlrbing. In the darkness they could see no tracks, if indeed there were any to see.
 You say you seen his tead?" old man Colter whispered.
 Silas nodded. They could find nothing. Silas' quick shooting evi- dently had gone wild, but had served to frighten the assailant away. Could the assailant have been an animal2 Some mountain lion, perhaps, poised as cats do to look down for possible game, that had accidentally pushed against a boulder loosened in the last rain? The men discussed it as @ possibility, but Silas swore somewhat indignantly that he knew mans head when he saw 1t, even in twilight.
 Stuart and Carolee rode up soon after the two men had climbed back down. They were greatly alarmed at the discovery.

CHAPTER XVI

Stuart Blake asked Carolee If he might take her home. He would bor- row 6 horse for her from the Lodge corrals, and escort her at least part way up the mountain climb to her cliff eyrie.
 "You can't go now" Nina in- formed them. "She's staying for dinner. Aren't you?"
 Carolee smiled in surprise.
 "Well, hadn't known it, but"
 Good. Then you are. I may let Stuart ride Up with you later Or" (to bedevil hin) "-1 may take her home myself"
 Carolee was slightly enlbar- rassed although pleased immense ly at the invitation. She had her father and brother to worry about They were waiting In the old car to leave, even now, She went over to them.
 Dad, I'm going to stay for din- ner. Miss Blake asked me"
 The old man bridled.
 "You cain't stay"
 'Why, I will be home before 10 o'clock. Someone will ride to the trail with me. They'll lend me Q horse"
 "You cain't stay" the father re- peated. rather sourly.
 Carolee bit her lip and looked away. She thought for moment or two, then came to sqick con- clusion.
 I'm sorry, papa, but I have al- ready accepted the invitation, and --I am staying. Wait a minute, nowl Let me finish. I have to remind you that Miss Blake Is an adequate chaperon, If l needed one. And Stuart himself has never been anything but a gentleman toward me, however much you dislike or distrust him. And"
 What do you know about"
 She ignored the interruption and went on.
 "And finally, I found most of the gold you have gotten up here anyway, and I'm q years of age. I won't be treated unreasonably"
 She uttered this last with a firm. ness which both men recognized. They knew she meant just what she said. They respected her for 1t, even if they were angered momentarily. The old man just loked at her, chew ing his tobacco and saying no more.
 "You stay, and I'll meet you down at the foot of the trail at 10 o'clock, with yore horse," said Eilas. as he stepped on the starter of their old car and pulled away.
 What to do with Carolee, if any thing, wasn't discussed by her brother and father as they rode gumly along. They loved the girl tn their own fashion; they dis liked to see her wean away from them, but they knew separation was bound to come some day, some how.
 "Cain't expect sis never to see no men," Silas suggested once, but his father promptly squelched him: "I'll run you gounguns like I want" Silas spat, rather con- temptuously, out the car window. He didn't much blame carolee, he told himself.
 The road from Superstition Lodge to the foot of the Golfers horse rtail, where they regularly stored their car in the bushes, was no more than a set of shallow ruts across the desert soil. It wound interminably in and out among the rocks, dodging clumps of Cholla cacti, leading between giant saguaro, ocotillo, prickly
