, of plum and cherry blossoms, ferns
and house plants in bloom contributed
to the banquet atmosphere. Appoint

The quill was set in the nutcup, which
represented a journalists inkwell.

seated, everyone joined in welcome
song inviting the guests to make
known any news which they might
have to divulge for publication. I'm
mediately after this, four little news

form of a miniature two-page news
paper, the "J-S News" which bore
the headline, Juniors Fete Seniors

Mrs. Judd during her court fights,

PATTERN 854

The clovers gayly sprinkled on this, dress should really have four leaves instead of three-it's such a lucky find for you! The kind of look-your- -prettiest dress that you can put on any day, any hour. There's so many things you'll love about Claire Tilden's Pattern 854. See the clever way that the w. shaped front yoke "copy-cats" the line of the neck, even to its ruffle or lace trim. There's softening in the gathers below the yokes, and cool fulness in the skirt, which may have bias-cut front panel. The sleeves are puffed, with dainty pointed cuffs, and the pattern also includes a short, flared style. Have a simple, narrow tie-belt, or make it wide, smartly buttoned in front. An easy-to-make style.
 Pattern 854 is cut in misses and women's sizes IA, 16, IS, 20, 32, 34. 36, 38, 40 and 42 Size 16 requires 3 5-8 yards 39 inch fabric and l 1-2 yards ruffling.

ana can see. BuG MISS bartOM sometimes she has to answer slow ly, and she has trouble with divi- sion and so her marks in arithmetic almost failed her.
 Susy said she could hear all right. That is, she thought she could hear. How was the child to know that there is such thing as Thigh frequency deafness" which could make her miss part of her in- Struction.
 Susan THINKS she can see. So she can, but there may be just enough distortion in her focus to mix certain numbers or letters and turn words around.
 And about dividing. Think over the child's history. She may have moved away from her old school where the arithmetic program was different. She may have missed the drilling that was her due in the arithmetic tables.
 About answering slowly. Not all children who coordinate instantly on an answer are smart. Often they are quite unintelligent. And the slow child might be the most intel ligent. The stutterer is frequently a brilliant child.
 So in all fairness to your child, mother, it is wise to make an att tempt to get at reasons. Eye and ear specialists can tell you part of it. You yourself can find out about the lack of preparation in grade work if you talk to the teacher. The orther things are something else again. By-and-by every child will be examined for "confusions," But that is in the future.
