Colors for spring millinery include the delicate sweet-pea group, colors Renown as sunset hues, the name adequately describing them, and blues or the porcelain order.

"Central America illustrates strikingly the effects of geographic factors oh a region's development," continne's the bulletin. "All the five republics lie on the relatively narrow isthmus between the narrow ribbon of Panama on the south and Mexico on the north. The Spanish settlements made soon after the discovery of America were all on the Pacific side af the isthmus, for the most part on the plateaus and mountain slopes and in the mountain valleys of that region, which temper an otherwise tropical climate. Practically the enLire Atlantic side of the isthmus was a low plain, covered with a dense tropical JUU??JU* i Ilia uuttu u I great 'Chinese Wall' erected by nature which discouraged or aotually cut off intercourse with the Atlantic coast and turned the faces of all the countries toward the Pacific. Isolated Both by Nature and Man "The isolation started by nature tvas continued b^ the colonial policy 3f the Spaniards, who for three hundred years permitted the Central American settlers to trade only with the mother country and greatly restricfed even that commerce. The various groups of settlements which finally became the live republics of --a * - <-? - 1 -1 ~ couay?uuaiemaia, oaivauui, nunumas, Nicaragua, and Costa Rica?were also effectively separated from each other by the mountainous nature of the country and the lock of means of communication.
