A PHILOSOPHY W THE
FLOWERS '
Flowers-; know so much more that
man forgets—^
Or, perhaps, he does not know
To bend before a migWy wind,
To move with, and not against the
blow. . ,
I watched wit^ aching heart one
. night
The flowers upon my window sill—
A storm was raging in the sky;
No voice said, “Peace, be still.”
t V
Their swaying little bodies moved
With each great gust or Wow;
They ducked their tiny little heads
’ And crouched so very low.

A moment and its fury spent
The storm moved on its way;
The flowers straightened up unhurt
- And smiling seemed to say:
“Floors l:no\v'soThuc'fi man forgets.
Or, perhaps has not the mind^
To bend before a mighty storm,'
To move with and not against the
• wind.”

New York, Aug. 1. — Long gold
gowns are trailing into the style pic
ture as summer wanes, adding glitter
to 'the gilded and mirror-decked drees
salons.
As the autumn showings of Ameri
can designers’- collections, progress;
more and more models appear in
molded metal evening gowns and eve
ning clothes that look like a piece of
armor.
The new metaLsboi fabrics are
soft, and conform to the fii^ire like
satin. They come in all sorts of new
patterns. _
There is a while lame evening
gownjNith a delicate vine pattern on
it in silver-^a gown fit for the “snow
princess” of fairy tales. With it goes
a white wrap, and a big muff of sil
ver fox.
There are sheath-like gold satin
gowns worn under, long, figure-fitting
coats of tapestry-weave metal cloth.
Some in armbrial patterns, 'gleaming
with red, green, gold and silver.
Another metallic gown hai) a weave
like moire, and ranges in shades, from
rose to f^me, shot with gold.
The only trimming on one molded
gold lame evenin|r gown is a band of
mink fur at the hem. Red fox fur
trims' the jackets of another evening
ensemble of crinkled gold lame.
Usually the metal dresses are vir
tually unadorned, relying on splendor
of cloth and line. But there are many
sfnall touches of “gHtter” in the fall
collections . . . little bolero jackets of
paillettes — juet i beads sewn on the
transparent tops of black dinner
gowns—and one jacket of shining red
and green trinkets that, look like
Christmas trimmings. .
Men and women of China and Ja
pan will be asked to sign the people’s
mandate against war now that the
Women’jS; International league, which
i.s headed by Mrs, Hannah C. Hull of
Swarthmore, Pa., has decided to send
representatives to these far eastern
countries to get signatures. The man
date, for which fifty million signa
tures are desired, calls upon govern
ments to stop buying armaments, to
reduce their arms, to settle difficul
ties by peaceful methods, and to rec
ognize world interdependence.

Manriage and the Home, has propos
ed parental subsidies fs an aid to
youthful marriages. She made this
suggestion at the annual meeting of
the National Conference of Social
Work in Atlantic City. Dr. Parker,

Women who are good in marks
manship are~always a little 'surpris
ing, probably because they have so
little practice. But when you hear of
a college dean who can hit the bulls-
eye every time, or nearly so, she is
hailed as a champion, even though
the demonstration is on the college
campus and before an informal gath
ering of students, as was' the case
recently when Dean Virgmi* C. Gil-
derslrevo of Barnard college, New
York, cracked a whole series of tar
gets amid the cheers of the under-
imduntes. She is a daughter of Colo
nel H. A. Gildersleeve, a New York
lawyer, who was an expert rifle shot.
Clinton’s first horse show presented

es 'are to be offered for the best
horses in the various classes, as well
as for the best horsemanship dis
played by men, women and children.
It is hoped by the promoters that
a number of horses will be entered for
the show. Those interested in making
entries-nii^ askeil to communicate at
once with Heath Copeland or Jack H.
Davis, Jr.
Following 'the horse show.^a lanc
ing tournament will be held. Those
interested in this feature of the pro
gram are reminded to begin practic
ing now since the contest requires a
considerable amount of skill.

Almost every'person realizes the necessity of life insurance. The cost may. vary from
$25 to several hundred dollars a year. But what about health insurance, the cost of which
is only the small fee asked by the PHYSICIAN for one, twb-or three visits?
. Sone people, go to their PHYSICIAN af least once a year for a health examination—
to have themselves checked over carefully. That is a splendid plan. Disease conditions
are detected and checked before they have progressed too far.‘And the individuaPs life
is greatly prolonged.
Perhaps you have neglected to see a PHYSICIAN for some little time. If so, by all
means consult him within the next day or two. The cost of a health examination is
slight, and it may add years to your life.
