Gay Shaw|s Take
Fashion Spotlite
BY HAZEL G. REED

Swing a shawl about your should
ers if you would be gay and cnic, for
taking top honors in summer
fashion intrigue are the bright,
new triangular wisps which grace
some of the smarUest shoulders.
Dramatically lovely, shawls have
grown SO in popularity since first
making their appearance this
spring that hardly a smart ward
robe is now without one. The per-
feet answer for summer evening
wrap, shaWls la 1910 have much
more than just dash of glamour.
Shawls must be worn with con-
siderable flair for best effect, say
their designers, who advise provo
cative Swirling OF the silky folds
in just the way that is most be-
coming to the wearer. They tie
or twist double knotted and loose
ly in front Worn draped low
about a pair of pretty shoulders,
these shawls can be most effective
ly alluring.
Outstanding in the shawl picture
are the bright patterned silks and
chiffonS. Tropical-hued flowers ON
moon white, azure blue or sea green
grounds are some of the designs
seen. They are exquisitely lovely as
accents to floating, summer even
ing frocks in pale shades and make
equally interesting the shoulders
that rise above dark frocks.
With a bit of Spanish flavor. we
find sophisticated affairs of silk
jersey-often in yellow, spiced with
splaShings of paprika-red. These
versions are self-trimmed with a
deep ruffle of the material.
The fringed models also are ex-
citing and more than a trifle
coquettish with glossy silk fringes

black and white fringe is very flat
tering. And all-white shawls caught
demurely around a pair of bronze
shoulders are eye-appealing in
deed
For ultra-ultra glamour, the
oStrick-trimmed shawls rate a very
bright spotlight. Fashioned of
fragile, soft silk crepe, a fluffy
fringe of ostrich fronds outline the
edge and swish softly. And for a
real movie-star entrance choose a
sequin or rhinestone sprinkled
chiffon shawl. This type will do
wonders for any frock. One of
black chiffon highlighted with
silver sequin starts is most eff

Do not be ashamed of your
home, my dear. If the boy loves
you, he will not be interested in
how fine your home may be or
how poor. Be assured that there are
very few colored parents who do
not have to sacrifice to send their
children to school and your parents
are only ''one among many So,
if you love this young man and you
are sure that he can make you
happy, 1 would suggest that you
marry him when you are through
school. You can find ways to help
your parents.
A girl your age has definite
right to her own happiness ana
she should make every effort to
grasp that happiness when II
comes her way. 1t does not often
reappear and usually when it is
not accepted, there remains life
time of "what 1 could have done
meeting you on every corner. l
am sure your parents would not
want you to forego living just be-
cause thew have done their duty
by you. You will be able to re-
taiate in some degree if you are
happy. F~T! !!

Housing Shortages
Bring Decision 10
SfreamIine Guard
Infantry Regiments to
Have More Anti-Tonk
Guns and Fewer Men

Infantry regiments of the IS
National Guard divisions are to be
reorganized along the same lines
as infantry regiments in the new
streamlined, triangular divisions of
the Regular Army, the effect being
to double the number of anti-tank
weapons in each Guard regiment.
Guard regiments now have six
81 millimeter guns. Under the new
plan they will have II, but a per-
sonnel slightly under the strength
of regular infantry regiment.
The decision to reduce the per-
sonnel in the Guard units, it was
announced last night, is due to the
shortage of men and housing.
The total strength of a regular
regiment under the new order of
organization is about 5000 enlisted
men. Each Guard regiment will be
limited to 1850 men.
Give Up 10 Per Cent Margin.
Normally, up to 10 per cent of
the regimental personnel are as
signed to special duties, are on the
sick list or are absent. To keep
each regiment at a 3O00-man
strength at all times, the new tables
have assigned a special 10 per cent
basic allotment, or roughly, about
300 additional men to each regi-
ment. Because of circumstances
which cannot now be overcome. the
Guard regiments will be deprived
OF this extra 10 per cent allotment.
The 1850 figure was the war
strength of infantry regiments un-
der the old order, the peace strength
of such regiments having been 1883
men.
Officials said the increased strength
will apply only to those Guard regi-
ments that are inducted into Fed
eral service. Others will remain at
strength of approximately 1900
enlisted men until they are Fed
eralized.
ID. c. Men Go in January.
The goth Division of District,
Maryland and Virginia National
Guardsmen is to be induced early
In January.
No changes are contemplated, it
was announced, in the organization
of the National Guard infantry di-
visions, which are now square divi-
sions containing two infantry bri-
gades, a field artillery brigade and
certain divisional troops. A triangu-
lar division, on the other hand, has
no brigades. 1t comprises three in
fantry regiments, three light artil-
lery battalions, one battalion of
medium artillery, and additional
divisional troops.
Under the new regulations, each
Infantry regiment consists of a
headquarters company, service
company, an anti-tank company
and three battalions. Each battalion
comprises headquarters detach-
ment. a heavy weapon company of
machine guns and trench mortars;
and three rife companies. This
differs from the superseded organi-
cation in the addition of an anti
tank company, which has absorbed
the anti-tank platoon in the old
headquarters company.
The Regular Army now has eight
triangular infantry divisions and
another, the 4th Division, which is
completely mechanized. The others
are only partially mechanical. In
addition there are two Regular
cavalry divisions and two armored
divisions.

Every so often it is argued that
life insurance should be sold on
an "over the counter" basis in
order to eliminate the agents
commission.
That argument may be super
ficially compelling. but it won't
stand analysis. For buying life in
surance is very different from
buying shoes, or a can of beans,
or magazine. Most people re-
quire the strongest kind of urging
to buy life insurance-they don't
like to think about it. There are
many different types of policies. A
policy that is completely fitted to
the problems, needs and ambitions
of John Jones, might be next to
worthless for Tom Brown, next
door.
And that's where the agent
comes in. First he must "sell'' you

Then it is his job to analyze your
life insurance needs-and to fit a
policy to them as your tailor fits

of the most important things that

the future-between adequate and
