Knitted fashions are staging q
great comeback this season.
One of the best reasons for the
revival is that some of the old
Iprejudices against wearing knitted
garments have been overcome
Knitted dresses and sweaters do
mot bag. sag and stretch as they
used to. And, too, many machine
knits duplicate the look Of "hand
mades" to such an extent that
many leading New York designers
are even proud to attach their
names to them.
Do let your wardrobe budget in
|clude a smart and practical
knitted fashion such as a jacket
that might be worn for day or
evening, an evening sweater, or a
general sportswear item that you
will find will soon become indis-

If you are handy with the
knitting needles and have lot OF
patience you can make your own

Here are some tips on caring
for your knitted fashions from
Rosanna, who is quite an author
Iity on them.
To keep your knitted skirt
shapely, reverse it with each wear
ing. Mark the front center waist
band and alternate the wearing of
the skirt from back to front. This
prevents ''pocketing," which hap
pens in any slim skirt that gets a

Fold your knitted dresses and
sweaters. Hanging can pull them
out OF shape. Remember, knitted
dresses and suits are perfect trav-
cling companions, and include
them in your plans for always
looking "well- dressed" when tray

In cleaning your knitted dresses

Everyone of us is called to do
needful work. That work is re-
warded SO that every honest man
who is not physically handicap
ped can pay his own way. Of
course, there are inequalities in
our economic system. There are
evils that need to be corrected.
Management, labor, and govern
ment are all guilty in varying de-
grees of these evils.
The profit motive exists in the
spiritual realm. We live up to a
certain moral code that there
may be a little heaven here on
earth as we'll as hereafter. Just
because there has been abuse of
the exercise of the profit motive
is not reason for us to sacrifice
the freedom to work, to live, and
to help others. Let us correct the
abuses, but at the same time,
we might well remember the
words of Studdert Kennedy when
he said, 1--WE must be careful not
to throw the baby out along with

The home of Isaac and Rebekah
was a home divided, with Isaac
showing a preference for Esau
and Rebekah favoring Jacob.
That Rebekah was a better Judge
of character does not excuse the
deceit she worked upon her hus-
band through Jacob, to secure
Jacob the birthright. She dress
ed the neck and arms and hands
of Jacob with skins that he might
resemble, the hairy Esau. And
the blind Isaac was deceived and
he gave the blessing of the birth
right to Jacob.
The teaching of Jesus concern
ing divorce is very plain-there
is only one cause recognized as
being sufficient to give one a
divorce-that is adultery. The
innocent party has the right to
secure a divorce from an adulter-
Gus husband or wife. And whose
eVereth marrieth one who is put
away for any cause other than
adultery causeth that one to COM
NIT adultery if all over the coun-
try there could be developed a
mighty respect for the teachings
of Jesus that there might be few
er broken homes and a lesser
number Of children with blighted
lives.
But first of all there is needed
the blessed experience of the
love of Christ to hold the home
together. 1t is the love that is
implanted in the heart through
faith in Jesus. This is the love
that is needed to hold the home
together, and this is only another
way of saying that the presence
of Christ in the home is necessary
to it's stability and happiness.
