The cloche Is not deitd hy any menns, but It is the cloche "with a difference.” The small, close-fitting crown Is there, but In place of a turned down brim or no brim at all, this section of the hat now rolls away from the face either in front only or in front and on the aides. Fre quently the brim is slashed at the sides and pointed In front. This gives a three-cornered effect on the manner of a tricorne. The eketches today show charming examples of small hata with brims turning up in front. The email hat at the top la In the popular coca brown shade and achieves variety by having Its crown of taffeta and its brim of straw. The trimming Indicates the adaptability for a tailored suit—a emart brueh on one elde.

A sable choker completed the former costume and a gayly printed scarf ths latter. The hats were Milan cloches.

"What Is It?" —Six Girls Who Want to Know. There la really a sharp dividing line between real love and that what often passes muster as love. Any devotion that Includes selfishness, Jealousy, re sentment, bitterness, fear or cruelty la not love—but desire. True lov# gives—It does not brutally, or whimp eringly, demand. Ho when two people really love each other each I* more Intent on the happiness of the other than on his own. To be jealous Is not to have com plete faith. To resent Is to be bitterly Inclined to demand what is due rath er than to offer more than la asked. Bitterness and cruelty are expres sions of hate Instead of lov*. And fear is another expression of doubt. I -ova is a pure affection ao devoted and understanding that it finds com pletion of heart and mind and spirit In th* union with another. Ixiv* Is devotion to another—not to self. I-cap Tear License. Dear Mlsa Allen: We are two high school chums of 18. Several weeks ago we got acquainted with some bas ket ball players.

Everyone say* It 1* not proper to let boye kiss you, but w* were out one night and th# boy# wanted to kiss us. W# would not let them. Now they will hardly more than speak to us. They say w# are too particu lar. Answer soon, because we are very anxious to know. Thanking you In advance we are CISSIE AND PATTY. It Is fun to Joke shout leap year, but, after all.

You are well rid of the hoys who want to go with you for kisses. This Is not a very strong thread upon which to swing a friendship.
