Exquisite Venise lace borders the

and feminine as any one could wish,
charming and choice enough for any
young woman Of faultless taste to
wear in the most select environs.
Practical, too, for 1t washes like the
proverbial ''hanly."
Simple line is the important de-
tail which makes the adorable dress
conferred in the picture. It's one Of
those classics of sophisticated SIM

fabric manipulation. Worn with a
shady-brimmed hat, nothing could
be cooler looking or feeling.
Stop, look, listen! In the dress to
the right in the above group you are
receiving advance notice of a fash
ion you'll see more of this fall and
winter, that is, the use of rich en-
broidery on the slim-lined dress. It's
of cool Moygashel linen. Made
very simply, with deep-throated
necklines and soft front fullness its
restrained simplicity the more
keenly highlights the chalk-white
embroidery on collar and pockets.
Wear it proudly and often, for it
washes well and is easy to keep
fresh.
One of the favored washables is
pique, birdseye pique, eyeleted
pique, printed pique, or embroidered
pique. With this immaculate
looking washable designers are per-
forming wonders in the way Of
sports apparel, daytime costumes,
jacket dresses and party frocks
which are most intriguing. Pique
takes beautifully to trimmings Of
Irish crochet lace, which is being
used very effectively. Printed pique
combined with plain injects splurge
of color attuned to this summers
mood.

THERE is great to-do being
L made about the 'soap and water"
look for summer. Because we want
to look Immaculate and feel cool,
because we've found that only wash
ables can give us that wonderful,
fresh-from-the-laundry cleanness, we
are growing more and more to APP
preciate how completely washables
attain to our ideals Of perfect ma
terials for perfect summer days.
This summer we'll wear washables
all day, every day and for late in
the night.
This season, more than ever be-
fore, we are discovering that there
can be and is true aristocracy and
a wealth of possibilities in sterling
quality kind linens, piques and 9TH
er of the myriads of lovely weaves
we've hitherto taken for granted.
And now that the women Of Amer
lea have been led by designers
and style creators to look upon
washables as fabrics of beauty and
a JOY forever we are yielding utter
ly to their lure this season.
Women who insist on being beau
5 tifully dressed no matter how busy
their lives may be will appreciate
at first glance the appeal of fine
artistry and def workmanship re-
flected in the three dresses illus
trated above. They live up to the
tradition of the designer who Gre
ated them and who is noted for ex-
quisitely simple styling and unusual
detail.
Among fine wash weaves Moy-
gashel linen has ever been noted for
its superior look, feel and wear.
Happily this linen is still being i'm
ported from the North of Ireland.

about as pretty and cool for sum-

They took rapid look-see in the

Curt casually, then returned to Lee

pile of luggage. The boys leashes
were on them again, much to their
audible disgust.
A pair of quick toots now came
from the river steamer that had
been loading all morning, even as
the Pisces locked. The baggage
was hauled aboard, the little party
followed. AS they headed slowly
upstream, Senior Montaya made his

Two hours of fighting the current

another modern dock, with a long
floating stage built to allow for the

the river at low point, the wharf

baggage was swung upward in

hook to avoid the stairs, while Curt
and the others climbed the long

accommodation there for you. There
will be nights when you are unable
to get back to San Alejo."
Montaya led the party to two mo-
torcars, automobiles with Hanged
wheels to operate on the narrow
gauge railroad tracks. Side win
dows of the sedan bodies rolled
completely into the framework,
making all-weather cars for the va
riable climate.

CEILING PRICES BEING
MAINTAINED IN COUNTY
Leo H. Mccormick, State OPA
Head, Says Cooperation Here
Is Considered Excellent

A survey of inspection of retail
stores in Oakland and the rest of the
county indicates that ceiling prices
are being generally maintained, ac-
cording to Leo H. Mccormick, Balti-
more, state director of the Office of
Price Administration
Mr.. Mccormick and others from the
state office were in Garrett county
yesterday and he stated that cooper
alton in this area was excellent and
that from now on there should be no
difficulty in everyone observing the
price regulations.
He said an inspector will be in the
county again in the near future.
Mr. Mccormick indicated also that
there probably would be additional
commodities to come under the ration
system. He complimented the Garrett
County Board for the work which its
members had done and for the condi-
ton of the affairs of the office.
Inspectors stressed four points: that
ceiling prices be calculated correctly,
that ceiling prices of all cost-of-living
items be posted in plain view in the
store; that list of prices on cost-of-
living items be filed with the local
rationing board; and that complete
list of ceiling prices on all merchan-
disc be available in the store.
Accompanying Mr.. Mccormick on
his trip were Edward H. Cashell, ad-
ministrative officer; J. William Egg
gleston, state rationing director; and
James D. Degnan, state organization
officer.
Mr.. Mccormick called attention to
the heavy penalties contained in the
General Maximum Price Regulations
as we'll as consumers suits.

Governor OConor announced Tues
day that officials of the war shipping

Park camp for conscientious objec-
tors into a merchant seamens retreat
The agreement followed the wal

ty. The board objected on the ground
the camp would be great distance
from Baltimore.
O'Conor said that the Patapscc
camp would be occupied by seamen
when final details of the transfer are
worked out by the war shipping
board, selective service officials and
the board of public works.

camp from Baltimore.
