llie Toice of .iprinc calls o’er the hills
To wake the flowers up,
The tulips ihi the daffodils
And golden buttercups.
The Tiolets in their mossy beds
Begin to open their eyes;
They lift their pretty purple heads
To smile on sunny skies.
The south wi^ blows>tbe tender rose
So gently at the dawning,
Then she wakes from sweet repose
To greet the bright q>ring morning.

of the calf they knew something had
to be done. There was only one thing
to do—pull the skirts down—and they
did it as fast as they could. That’s the
real story of the long skirt.”
American women, said the Baron,
are wearing their clothes these days
with as much dash ancf distinction as
any women in the world. '
Is the new silhouette tending to
ward the hobble skirt?"
"No," he said, “women, with the
active life they lead today, couldn’t
tolerate it, and the dressmakers aren’t
foolish enough to try to foist it on
them."
Baron de Meyer described the well
dressed woman as one who spends
hours assembling her costumes and
then tosses them on in a way to
achieve an effect so careless that it
looks as though she hadn’t spent any
time on her clothes at all.

Clinton, S. C.
New York, April 17.—Wojnen’s legs
are responsible for the long skirts
they’re trailing around today, in the
opinion of Baron de Meyer, interna
tional style expert and widely known
fashion writer.
‘‘Women have advanced a great
many reasons for those long skirts,
but the real reason lies in their own
legs," said Baron de Meyer, who has
just returned to America after mak
ing a visit to the leading dress-mak
ing salons of Paris.

Beaten In Court
Heflin To Carry
Fight To Voters
Washington, April 18. — Deprived
of a place on the Elemocratic ticket be
cause of his failure to support Alfred
E. Smith’s presidential candidacy.
Senator Heflin of Alabama, is going
on the stump next week in Alabama
to appeal to the voters for renomina
tion as a Democrat.
The decision yesterday of the state
supreme court upholding the ruling
of the Democratic ^ state committee
barring candidates from the party pri
mary who failed to support the Smith
ticket
Smaller Portions
To he sure, cream soups are served
occasionally as the first course at din
ner. But they are delicately made and
they are served in small portions. A
small bouillon cup not more than two-
thirds full of cream mushroom soup
iV^ indeed a tempting dinner dish—a
dish that makes the appetite crave
more food instead of satisfying it.
Cream celery soup, cream chicken
soup, cream tomato soup—never very
thick, never served in abundance, clev
erly flavored, served hot; these are all
delicious soups for dinner. A big dish
of cream celery soup with croutons,
served with celery and olives, follow
ed by a meal including fricasee chick
en, bominy, sweet potatoes and cot
tage pudding would be impossible. But
a small cup of cream celery soup, fol
lowed by a meal including roast chick
en with hominy and green beans, and
a gelatine or fruit dessert is jquite an
other matter.
Last Fnday the Clinton boys lost
to Laurens high hasc-oall team by a
score of 12 to 4, in a rathen loosely

go to the voters. ~
“The failure of the supreme court
to pass on the issue presented," said
Senator Heflin in a statement today,
“leaves the punitive, outrageous and
vindictive provision laid down by the
strangely influenced ‘Raskobian’ mem
bers of the state committee hanging
like a pall over the heads of 185,000
life long Democrats in Alabama.
“There is nothing left for us to do
now but appeal the case to the rank
and file of the party. They consti
tutes the supreme court of the Demo
cratic party in Alabama, and I shall
take the case to them confident of
success.”
Two other candidates have an
nounced already for the Democratic
senatorial nomination at the Alabama
primary to be held early next month
and Heflin’s determination to get it
in the face of the refusal to place his
name on the ticket assumes a bitter
contest.

Heflin said he would go to Alabama
within a few days but he added that
prior to his departure he intended to
have something to say on his case in

your children’s party. ’
Summer is a far better time than
winter to give a children’s party if
you live 'in the country or suburbs,
because you can give^t outdoors. Few
houses are large enough for a dozen
or so eager, exuberant children at a
party.
It is far better to give children too
simple refreshments than too elabor
ate. And better to have them go home
wishing they had had more than with

In sending out invitations to a chil
dren’s party or giving telephoned in
vitations be explicit as to the time for
the party. Half past three or half past
five are good hours, because that does
not interfere with nap time or with
supper.
A really sensible idea is to have a

Scalloped Potatoes
Scalloped potatoes are one of the
best ways of serving them. There are
two good ways to scallop potatoes.
One is to slice them raw and put them
in a buttered baking dish with a little
flour sprinkled between the layers.
Then season them with salt and pep
per and butter, and cover them with
milk. Cook them rather slowly for
an hour in the oven—or until the po
tatoes are done.
The other way of scalloping them
is to boil them and let them cool, then
chop them or cut them into small dice,
put in a buttered dish, cover with
milk, season well and bake slowly un
til they are rich and creamy and
brown on ttop.
Creamed potatoes are also good
made of old ones. Again there are sev
eral ways of‘cooking them. One is to
make a good cream sauce and heat the
diced or sliced potatoes in the sauce.
Another is to dice the potatoes, roll
them in flour, and then heat in a dou
ble boiler in milk to cover them. The
flour thickens the milk% Both sorts
should be well seasoned.
