Henry could not help being afraid
to go on the errand. He was so self
conscious that speaking TO a stranger
was painful to him. He was shaking
with a chill and his ears and cheeks
burned in a fever. His voice was
lost in a fog and he felt lost and
helpless. Yet somehow he must be
rescued from himself SO that he
might live comfortably.
His mother was right. too The
easiest way to train a self conscious
child to meet people and deal with

with something to carry and deliver.

goes will certainly speak TO him and

embarrassing This. however, does
not apply to a subtle use OF last
years colorS which is so well done
and successful that it is good forever.
Most important also are the thlneS

you must wisely plan scheme that

This years big news is color, not
two or three tones, but all colors

they flow together with Just enough

We have hypothetical living
room l6 by "a feet. 1t has two large
window openings on the west and
door and window on the north.
Though the two people who live
here both go to business and DO not
use the living room during the day,
they prefer an effect Of light and
warmth in the evening. After a
conference on personal choice they

The walls are covered with pa
per whose design runs IN stripes.
This is not emphatic, but a soft
blending of three tones Of light gold
color which reflects light and is
most gracious in the evening. The
floor is covered with wall-to-Wall
carpet in middle green, while the
doors. woodwork and nicely detailed
bookcases are finished IN a very
pale shade of the same soft color.
The sofa and one chair are covered
in a rose shade that is almost as
deep as antique red and the dra-
peries are of the same color, but
two tones lighter. The gold color
is repeated in deeper tones in lamp
shades and two dainty little side
chairs; the green found again IN
two upholstered chairs across the
room from the sofa and close to
the deep rose of the draperies.

whole room, but it still lacks the
touches which deviate from this
color scheme Just enough to give 1t

On Tuesday, many of the design

clothes. Even though. by now, the
fashion press is getting used TO
finding no imports fresh off the

Not Just a Whim;
Very Important
BY EMILY POST.

Today I'm going to reverse the
usual plan of answering questions
sent to me. and I'm going to ask
one of my readers a few questions
myself: Would you like to see
lady come into church in Stacks?
Would you think it all right If she
came 10 market in an evening
dress? Would you approve of hav-
ing her arrive at concert in
pajamas? Do you think riding
boots would look we'll with mans
tuxedo coat? I could go on add
ing questions whose obvious answers
would equally we'll answer the fol-
lowing letter: Why should any
one bother as TO whether it is con-
sidered correct or incorrect to wear
this or that on certain occasions?
Why should something as super
fetal as correct dress for each oc-
casion be considered important
when the appearance that one
makes will in no way affect the
feelings of others who should be
equally free to dress as best pleases
themselves"
In other words. to any one who
can answer yes" to my questions
of suitability to situation, and con-
tinue to think that convention is Of
no Importance, what is there to
say?
Dear Mrs. Post: Some one has
told me that the thing in wedding
rings and engagement rings is
plain gold wedding band and a plat
mum diamond ring. This hardly
seems right to me!
Answer: The phrase the thing"
suggests --latest fashion There
fore, I should say, instead. that it
is now as it has ever been, I'M
questionably right-because nothing
could ever make a plain gold we'd
ding ring wrong. no matter what
fashions come or go. But it is
also the right of the bride to choose
what she likes best!
Dear Mrs. Post: Some of my
relatives have offered to put up out
of-town wedding guests-most of
them on the groom's side Is 1t
enough for me to write his relatives
whom I have never metz and in
vite them, or should my relatives do
this?
Answer: 1t is only necessary that
you write and say that arrange
ments have been made to take care
of them during their visit. And
when they arrive tell them that
they are going to stay at Aunt
Mary's house." or. Mrs Neighbor
is expecting them" Afterward,
they should of course write to their
hosts and thank them for their
kindness.
