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. The whole effect of this
hat la one of Ullnrtd simplicity ami
It la an Meal hat for the popular man
nish mat and shirt.

anniversary pageant to be given on

bees are Invited to be at the auditor
ium of the Castle hotel Saturday aft

tle of Port Huron, Mich., deputy su
preme commander of .the order, will

About 1.000 women will take part
In the event, which Is to be given
May 8 at the City Auditorium. It Is
a repetition of a pageant given last
year at Dos Angeles. A dancing In
structor will train the children in
their parts.
They Are Wearing—
The simply tailored ault la making
Its appearance dally In greater num
bers. Two very smart young women
wore tailleurs of diverse fabrics, one
!>elng light gray with a green pin
stripe, and the other a blue gray
mixture. A sable choker completed
the former costume and a gayly
printed scarf ths latter. The hats
were Milan cloches.
Coats seen on the avenue also
stressed the decorative back effect by
means of a circular ripple of the fab
ric falling from the left shoulder to
the right hip. A small lynx collar
trimmed this, one tiny paw falling In
back of tha left shoulder and one In
front.
A tailored suit noted this week had
a yellow hairline stripe and was ac
companied by a yellow suede vest.
In allover blouses worn with cos
tume suits, black allover embroidered
In white la a smart note.
Small brown hats In felt, eatln and
auede are very much worn at the mo
ment by younger women and In one
matinee audience there were several
of these In almost every row, some
trimmed with quills.
The fringed dress, the trimming In
deep cape and tunic effect continues
to be a favorite of evening functions.
In the advancing spring costumes
appearing occasionally, black and
white suggests a repetition of Its fall
and winter success.
Particularly striking is the coif
furs chosen by certain young girls for
evening. In which a long strand of the
hair Is wound about the head fillet
fashion, a rope of pearls twisted
through this. In one theater audi
ence this week a black haired woman
wore deep rose coral beads In this
twist eyle with stunning. effect.
Silver Almond Dish.
for the table there Is a silver al
nionij dlah on a low standard. The
lines are simple and good. The dec
oration also. Individual almond dishes
lo match complete the aet, which la
Raid to he very popular.

"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.

Dear Mlsa Allen: We are two high
school chums of 18. Several weeks
ago we got acquainted with some bas
ket ball players. Two of them seemed
to like us awfully well and we liked
them, too. They do not know our
names, but we know theirs. Now,
we would like to know whether or not
It. would be proper to writs to them,
since this Is leap year. We can’t de
cide whether to or not, as we do not
want to cheapen ourselves In their
eyes.
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

very anxious to know. Thanking you
In advance we are
CISSIE AND PATTY.
It Is fun to Joke shout leap
year, but, after all. It offer# no license
to be unladylike. If the boye are
really Interested In you they already
know your names. It would be Im
proper for you to write to them.
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. Anyone
can give a kiss and capture a beau
for the evening, but what kind of a
beau would he be? And would nice
boys car# to go with girls who had
so cheapened themselves? You would

uGood News About Man”
The story of the Garden of Eden, a crude and
primitive interpretation, is still a determining in
fluence in much of the world’s thinking about the
nature of man.
The Puritan idea that human nature is essen
tially evil, and the theological idea that man is an
alien from God, remain in the minds of millions.
To a world that has long fostered dark and de
k grading thoughts about the nature of man, Chns
« tian Liberalism brings glorious tidings concerning
