What Is Latest in
Fabrics for Spring?
Pastel Tweeds In for Big
Vogue; Jersey Holds On.
By CHERIE NICHOLAS

For those first spring suits to wear
under coats, mems wear gray fan
mel is important news. Pastel
tweeds also come in for big vogue.
AS to jersey, it is fairly outreaching
all records in point of popularity
for dresses, coats, ensembles, suits
and especially for draped hats. You
can get jersey plain, printed or en-
broidered. You make your choice
between silk, rayon and wool jer-
sey.
Twills of every description are
chic for the spring suit. There is
also continued vogue for plaids
and stripes.
Silk suits are Of high style signif-
icance. The cleverest sort of bolero
suits and dresses are shown in rep
resentative collections made of
faille or bengaline also taffeta in
black or navy With these you are
styled up to the moment if you wear
lingerie neckwear and dainty elk
ings" at wrist and on the inevitable
pockets.
Navy is big color factor both
for woolens and for the new prints.
1t is a close race between navy
and pastels. Dresses of sheer wool
pastels meticulously tailored are
that intriguing no fashionable ward
robe will be without several, and
of course you will want navy suit.
In prints two motifs with the new
look are bow knots and wheat, the
latter varied by clusters tied with
colorful ribbon effects. The high
spot in prints at the immediate
moment is the dress of print that
is topped with a wool redingote the
latter often lined with the print.
In cottons there are dramatic
things going on. For sports the
exotic javanese prints give you col
or and theme a plenty. Sheer seer
sucker is again to the fore.

Who Is Daisy Darling?

During the latter part of the second
week in this month the city of Pitts
burg re-stocked it's woman-power in
the return of Mrs. Daisy Lampkins,
field secretary of the NAACP, who is
internationally known as "Daisy Darl-
ing" In private life Mrs. Lampkins
is none other than Mrs. William L.
Lampkins, resident and property
owner of old Pittsburg. She and Mr..
Lampkins reside in a modernistic
three-apartment house on the corner
of Webster and Duff streets in the
hillside district of the greatest of
smoky cities. The first apartment is
occupied by Mr.. and Mrs. Roland Saw
yer, (Aline Eckstein) a bride of 1897
vintage and one of Pittsburg's most
enchanting junior hostesses.
Mr.. Sawyer became famous when
he was the young and handsome ply
steal director at Camp Atwater during
the early '30's. Here he led songs,
saved lives, led archery squads,
arranged swimming meets and duti-

INllIIIners Turn Out
Cunning Spring Hats

A pastel felt or a gay fabric tur-
ban make good starters" for
spring. The sailor theme is a most
important one. AS for turbans you
can wear no smarter headpiece. The
latest is to have a turban match
either blouse or bag or match some
thing that has to do with your cos
tune.
The outstanding feature about the
cunning hats that tilt over the face,
some not much larger than the palm
of your hand, is that they all throw
the spotlight on back views. Mil
liners have devised all sorts of
schemes in the way of snoods and
fitted deep bandeaux and ribbon
cap-ftting contrivances not only to
insure a comfortable fit on the head
but to give chic and charm to back
views.

BEAUTY HINTS
By NINA TEMPLE
SuppleneSs

There is somthing more to beauty
than of form and face There is that
indescrible charm that comes from
suppleness. Watch the women you see
walking to and fro and note how few
there are who retain the suppleness
of youth. With it the whole body
moves gracefully and charms the eye.
| know one woman of fifty who has it
and she says that her secret is stretch
ing. She bends over to the floor touch
ing it with her fingers and then she
stretches like a cat. This exercise
she performs religiously several times
day and she is always admired for
her grace.

a S A prologue to the season before
L n us the National Shoe fair, held
in Chicago recently, launched many
new styles for the Easter parade,
and for the spring and summer
months to follow. 1t is not possible
to tell of all the shoe fashions ex-
hibited, so in the next few para
graphs we will cite few outstand-
ing highspots.
First, one is impressed with the
striking originality that marks the
styling of shoes this season. The
big news is the swing toward back
decoration. The newest models are
styled with all sorts of fancy cutouts
in heel and side-back sections. Open
toes appear in a substantial percent
age, with good taste using a restrain
ing hand.
In feathers there is decided in
genuity in combinations, especially
with fabrics. In the forefront are
feathers from the reptilian family.
Patent is top-honor contender, di-
viding its style prestige with gabar-
dine. Suede is also definitely in the
picture. The stepins are prime ia
vorites. The majority of these, and
of pumps, carry elasticised sections.
For the initial purchase smart
women will select black or the new
bluejacket blue, dark navy. Mali
bu beige is also color you will be
parading. Gray is due for a de-
cided revival.
Heels introduce more novelty in
their heights and shapes than in

moonlit episodes on the shores of Lake
Lashaway at the famous camp resort.
Real romance did not begin for him
till Roland forsook the camp and
began his career in Pittsburg. Cupid
led him straight to Mrs. Eckstein's
front gate and subsequently to her
varandah and later right into her
living room where sat her lovely
daughter, the fair Aline. She has
Just conducted a successful Anti
Lynch campaign all over the country,
including Texas. The New York cam
paign was the climax of a most sue
cessful season and now Mrs. Lampkins
returns to her native home and she
will doubtless participate in the pre-
Lenten social program so we'll estab-
lished in Pittsburg but she will especi-
ally be at home to the large number
of friends who constantly frequent
her luxurious residence. But her
/ favorite pastime will be her Lucy
Stone League, which would not be q
league at all but for "Daisy Darling"
Altogether Mrs. Lampkins is one of
the nations outstanding leaders, with
a grand purpose in life, a gracious
disposition, a lovely personality and
also not to be forgotten substantial
holdings in the stocks of the great
Pitsburg Courier Company of U.S.A.
SO, friends tell Mr.. Lampkins, in jovial
language, Better watch out Billy,
don't take any chances, my boy, your

from Wellesley lyrics)


There was a famous washing day, its
action near the Hub:
A nations raiment in the suds, hero
at the hub.
Then come, We loyal patriots, and lis
ten to my lay!
mi sing of good George Burlington
on this his washing day.
1.-THE time is come" said Burlington,
"when wash we really must,
For. see our country's garments, how
they are trampled in the dust;
And iiberty's bright tunic is so sadly
soiled, I weem,
That nothing but washing day will
make it bright and clean"
The morning dawned, the washers
came, the washing was begun;
The steam rose high, nor ceased to
rise till cleanliness was won.
And now, though good George Birth
ington is gone to his repose,
The grateful country still recalls how
well he washed her clothes.

any previous year. They will "click"
from flat platforms to new spike
attitudes. Wedges in medium and
high heel versions promise a great
vogue. When you see the new play
shoes you won't be able to resist.
Wedge shoes with soles in brilliant
red kid and tops of Paris blue, buck
piped in red, with red drawstring
around the top will embark you gaily
on that all-American spring which

patriotic colors Tagging interest

House Goats to Fit
Your Personality

House coats and hostess gowns,
like all other costumes, should be
chosen to match your personality.
Once in a while the tall, stately
woman may find it amusing to go
frilly and feminine at home and
the hoyden may try her hand at
elegance, but these are the excep-
tons rather than the rule.
Ordinarily the woman who spends
many hours in her home likes pref
ty, cheerful pastels, while the career
woman who keeps an eye on the
practical side chooses the darker
red, wine and blue shades.

MARK MAN


1t took careful aim
That errant, silver spear
Of sunlight
Coming through our blind
For it struck my heart
And destroyed the hate
Which since you went
Had possessed me.
It did not stop
To twist the barb
In the wound,
But with one spring
1t was gone.
And when l hastily
Drew up the jalousie,
The chameleon ray
Had hidden itself
In the setting sun.

SYMPHONY CONCERT
Melodies are waves
Of the ocean
That rise and fall,
Like organ strains
In d cathedral
At even tide.
Niolins and harps
Sing forth symphonic harmony;
Clarionets and flutes
Rise in tranquility,
And drums beat out their depths.
Silk-gowned women whisper
Of augmented fourths,
And men in dress suits
Speak in lowered tones
Of cadence
In the minor
And far into a corner
An old man drones
Ignorant of technical analysis.
But with radiant face
And parched throat
Catches each silver note.
