MOTHERS DAY
By ELLSMERE

MOTHERS DAY
At waxing sentimental Pm total
loss but | would like to devote this
weeks column to Mother as her Day
approaches. e.. So to all the mothers
everywhere l am sending a carload of
carnations with the hope that there
won't be a single mother who will be
forgotten by her sons and daughters
on Sunday. How does that little rhyme
read: IF you must forget a play
mate; if you must forget chum; for
get the old friends who have gone and
the new ones who will come; if YOU
must forget your sweetheart when you
find you love another; forget the rest
from whom you part; but do not forget
your Mother" E. All, but here's my
practical side popping out so I feel my
eternal urge of dispensing few
pointers. Every year mother re-
ceives her quota of handkerchiefs,
chocolates and hosiery and of course
she appreciates your remembrances
but they really are not exciting. So
this year why not give her something
Notwithstanding a bit gay and
frivolous? After all, just because she
is your mother doesn't mean she no
longer enjoys pretty feminine things.
If you must give hosiery, select
cobweb filmy pair that are purely
luxurious. :. Mother no doubt always
buys service-weight stockings because
they last longer, so a sheer pair of
two or three threads would be thrill
for her. =. Why not give her bottle
of light floral perfume or toilet
water? cold Spice" is a new frag-
rance she is sure to love and it comes
in attractive matched sets and is also
featured in soaps, talcums and sachets.
|. If your mother is many miles
away, do send her a Mothers Day
telegram. . Every woman likes flow
ers, so have a bouquet made up for
her or you could give her little cor
sage to wear to church. If she
likes to read, give her new novel or
some new magazines. Oh, you can
think of dozen of other things that
are not necessities but something that
will give her a 'lift". But don't

year for the lovely swiss organdies
that are shown in versatile types
and which make up into ideal grad
uation frocks. Among the choicest
versions in organdy are the delicate
shadow prints that come in beguil-
ing tones and tints. Then there are
the beautiful CLIQUE organizes which
are in such subtle patternings they
breathe the breath and freshness of
spring and of youth. A wide call
for dotted swisses is also recording
in the realm of exquisite cotton
sheers. Dotted nets are also good
this year, some of the most attrac-
tive graduate dresses brought out
this season being made of point
d'esprit net.
In the realm of silk weaves the
call for fine sheers is as insistent
as it is among cottons. This years
silk sheers highlight especially the
daintiest of silk organdies, nets also
and as for silk marquisette it is
first choice.
Along with the thought of crisp
and lovely sheers for the graduates
gown comes up the question of color
versus white. There need never be
doubt as to white always holding
its own for both graduates and
brides. However, for several sea-
sons there has been a disposition of
brides-to-be to break away from ira
dition and choose a delicate tone or
tint for the wedding dress. AS is the
tendency toward color with brides
so is it with prospective graduates
this season, who are selecting in
many instances delectable pastel
tones in place of white for their
graduation wardrobe.
For a dress that will prove an
inspiration and a Joy on her gradua-

There is nothing more drab than a
few streaks of gray in a young head
of hair. It gives a positively
mousy effect-and adds years to
your appearance.
Gray Hair a Handicap
Some people, for one reason or
another, find streaks of gray in
their hair while still in their late
twenties or early thirties. The
woman with a job to hold down can
not allow nature to play such tricks
on her. Nor can the woman who
hopes to win and hold her man.
Just notice the women that men
notice at parties. They seldom let
their glances rest long on the nice
elderly, gray-haired ladies, nor on
the really young, but old-looking,
women whose hair is streaked with
gray.
The time to start coloring those
grazing locks is when the first
streaks of gray appear. Don't wait
until your hair is a dull brindle,
then change it overnight and expect
your friends not to notice the diff
ference. Catch those first gray hairs
almost before they appear, keep
after them Systematically and you
will be as young as you look.
What are your beauty prob
lens? Write Marie DotOniRg,

LETTER FROM THE EDITOR OF
THE WOMAN'S DEPARTMENT

By ELISABETH

My dear Readers:
Today as | sit down to write, | feel
most powerfully the JOY of spring. The
air is soft and warm and a gentle
breeze is stirring the trees outside my
window, making a picture of lightly
drifting shades Of green, The smells in
the air are those of freshly cut grass
and a pleasant hint of the odor of pine
trees.
The ground is fresh and inviting.
Tu'L blown yellow tulips and tiny pur-
pie yioIets make a border for the cool
green of the lawn. There's full blown
topsythia bush and as it sways it calls
to mind the memory of a childhood
fantasy of fairies dancing, or an adult
dream Of softly waving babies hand
reaching for an uniformed reality.
And such are the thoughts of spring,
ww life, new hopes and fresh creation.
Oar idea, and ideals recreate them
SOLVES in greater ambitions and desires
for their successful achievement; thus
wa come to the point of expressing our
-e- for this The Women's Depart
mon of The Guardian.
We have on the staff of this depart
acn. five very capable young women,
oha have given You from time to time,
complete and adequate information
about beauty, fashions, cookery, domes-
tie problems and miscellaneous items.
Recently, We have heard expressions
Of desire for a new form of material
to b. Incorporated with the foregoing.
And this part, my readers, is up to
rou. If Won have information which
vitality concerns womanhood, we will
Gladly print it, subject to editorial
policies. If YOU have a special prob
len which needs solving or suggestions,

Style Notes

The new corsets nip in at the
waistline.
Big vogue is on for novelty-dot
printed silk.
Glazed pottery jewelry is new
and lovely.
There's no end to frothy snowy
lingerie touches this season.
Wear patent leather sailor to
match your shoes, belt and bag.
White for gloves, hats and other
accessories, is fashion decree.
Rough straws, the rougher the
smarter, is important millinery
news.
Quantities of very wide ribbon
give latest hats decidedly new
look
The guardian. [volume] (Boston, Mass.) 1901-1960, 1939-05-13

A fast and furious rush for white
hats is on. Not only are white hats
the rage but all the accessories that
go with it-white gloves, white
jewelry and white neckwear. Note
the white straw sailor pictured at
the top. 1t typifies the new trend.
The importance of wing trim
ming is verified in the brown wings
that adorn this hat. The veil also is
brown. The passion for stripes and
plaids that is gripping the fashion
world at present is reflected in the
other two models. The stunning
turban is done in purple, cerise and
white stripes. Bonnie Scotch plaid
in red, white and blue makes the
jaunty sailor. Two lacquered quilts,
one red, one blue add the dramatic
touch.

On Mntlrtr


Your fearlessness, your steadfastness,
Despite the pain of living;
Your kind, sweet eyes, your tenderness,
Your spirit so forgiving-
Are as a beacon light to me,
I watch them from afar
And though my bark be foundering
Won are my guiding star.
Each time I pray (full often, too)
| ask most fervently
That God will grant me strength to
grow
A little more like you.

Elegant Old-Time
Fabrics Are Back

There is notable use of bengaline
being made by designers, who are
creating many of their smartest
suits and coats of this handsome
silk such as was the proud boast of
ladies of fashion in the long ago.
Along with this revival of handsome
bengaline comes the return to favor
of crisp rustling taffeta, also heavy
quality-kind faille silk.

REMINISCING WITH ANN
MOTHER

MO L HEX
Let US try to remember when we
first became aware of mother. Was
it the time we got lost and the first
cry was for her; or when we didn't
want to have our hair combed-or
perhaps when we began to realize that
she, too, had lived before us and was
once a baby, then a little girl and
then big girl and then she met dad
and then our family began and then
almost before we know it, whether
with JOY or sadness, we cried "Ma."
That time when mother was a little
girl playing down by the waterside
poking around for crabs. Her mother
calls-she needs it not, again the call
with an added Didn't l call you miss"
Mother leaves the swelling tide"
runs to the house, trembling, fearing
scolding. All, but listen, her mother
is laughing and talking with friends.
The daughter feels relieved and in
Quires, "Did you call me, MAJ" to
which question her mother answers
"No." But, God was watching over
our mother that night and saved her
from the rising tide, so that she might
be our mother.
How about the poems she recited to
you so eXpressively. Remember that
story about something was on the foot
of her bed and she called to her sis
ter, as that you, Julie?" and the thing
answered, eyes, pull me, pull me, pull
me-" weird like. You looked at mo-
ther and asked, what did you do?"
and she answered 81 pulled the covers

holler."
Mother, to whom no sacrifice is too
great: today we pay homage to her.

and then, not being able to under

gripped them, they went mad. His
troy, Krause, is a case-book for the
alienist. Thus far. All began as
demagogues, all of them like men
aware of and feeling for and being
used by some drive. Rud was
driven highest and furthest. He was
the ultimate dictator. I compared

Did you know he was my school,
fellow? No? He was. I was head
boy in the same school, and tried
to prevent the other fellows calling
him The Stink. 1t was a sort OF
link between us.
Il don't think I ever liked him
very much, Krause, but he had, !
know sort of unsatisfed desire to
to come it over me. I mattered to
him. I felt that-and I confess it
made-what I did to him-a little
more difficult. And then
there were the traditions of profess
sion. Good traditions. He was a
patient. -.
But I had seen his pencil list
for the next massacre. He scrib-

Maybe they will. Yet I question

for his press-cuttings. Or
eaves-dropping on us. ..
Queer lot, these goth century die
tators. They broke out like wasps
in dry summer. Conditions fa-
vored them. A peculiar species they
were. A crescendo of scavengers
because the unadapted world was
rotten with shabby evasions and
make-believes. 1t asked for blow
flies and Wasps. Not loyalty, not a
religion left that was not dead and
sinking. These dictators were mas

ardly skunks. Superficially like
gangster chiefs, they were, or like
the pronunciamhento bosses of those
little old republics there used to be
in South America, or Greek tyrants.
But only specifically. More like
Caesars, but not really like them.
Spreading further and less intense.
