BLACK-DRAUGHT
A GOOD LAXATIVE
Style-Correct ‘Comfy’ Snow Clothes
By CHERIE NICHOLAS
f F YOU would be graceful, “lady of
the snows,” you must be com
fort-wise as well as fashion-wise.
Warm and cozy but light as a feath
er, the new lightweight woolens are
the big news in winter sportswear
this season together with a decided
vogue for gay Tyrolean “picture”
costumes.
Wool gabardine, wool covert
cloth, snow cloth and the finely knit
ted snow-tested woolens are safe
and happy choices, for they keep
the wind at bay and are snow-shed
ding and waterproof. Ideal for
tailoring, they keep their lines and
fit under the most strenuous cir
cumstances. Be sure that your
winter sports clothes are all wool,
because this is the only way to be
certain of adequate warmth without
an ounce of extra weight to impede
action. Two pair of wool socks, one
short and one long enough to turn
back over the tops of your ski shoes,
also wool cap, scarf and gloves are
advisable from a purely common
sense standpoint. From a style bas
is these details give opportunity to
dramatize every ski and skate suit,
so choose the smartest dashing
items you can find—most especially
of Tyrolean, Norwegian and Dal
matian influence in colors and em
broideries.
The smiling snow enthusiast to
the left in the picture is perfectly
clad from both a comfort and style
viewpoint. This smiling queen of
wintry realms is sporting with pride
a new spectator coat of weather-
resistant wool, soft and fleecy as
a warm woolen blanket. Swagger
in cut with neck and comfortably
full sleeves, it is buttoned smartly
up the front in bright gold. A strik
ing blanket stripe bands the sleeves
and the bottom of the coat, also
making the distinctive yoke set in
for broad shouldered effect.
Picturesquely Tyrolean in feeling
is the “suspender” skating cos
tume centered in the group. A cable
knit sweater, in fanciful stitch, with
flattering high neck is in soft white
wool with matching toboggan-type
cap, mittens and socks. Black wool
gabardine flares in a widely pleated
skating skirt and is caught at the
snugly fitting waistline by decora
tive woolen suspenders done in col
orful and authentic Tyrolean design.
To the right a classically tailored
Austrian type ski suit is shown. It
has a stunning, expertly tailored,
double breasted gray wool gabar
dine jacket. Back-belted and snug
ly buckled, it stays nicely in place
over high-built trousers in smooth
suede-like black wool. A becom
ing gabardine soft-crowned cap fits
well down on the head.
It is not only that modern snow
clothes present an exciting variety
of styles, but they are built on pro
fessionally correct lines. Current
collections include any number of
classically tailored types with sim
ple mannish effect. Styled in dark
monotone shades they depend on
bright accessories for color accent.
Then there are the feminine outfits
with emphasis on combinations of
fabric and colors together with cun
ningly devised details.
To pink-cheeked winter sports
fans now dotting ski trails and
snowy hills all over the country
side, crowding skating rinks or the
old mill pond, it is of the utmost
importance that sports clothes be
snow-worthy and completely ade
quate. Look to it that your snow
clothes be warm and wind-resist-
ant. Be sure, too, that they are
freely cut for plenty of action. Be
ware of gaps. Let sock upon
sock, scarf and sweater added to
sturdy costume, dependable slide
fasteners and other strong and stout
gadgets make you feel “sure” even
should you find yourself head-first
in a snow drift.

VEILS FOR SPRING,
MILLINERY EDICT
By CHERIE NICHOLAS
Paris milliners are saying for
spring “a veil with every hat.” And
wait until you see the veils! Of
course you may choose the modest
little eye-screening affairs if you
wish and they really are practical
and will maintain their vogue the
season through. However, they
do not tell the whole story of veils,
for in the new varieties there are
most dramatic veils, some almost
shoulder depth. Many tiny hats, es
pecially the pill-box type, are in
dividualized with clever veils, the
wide mesh effects being especially
good. The newer French veils also
favor scrawly thread embroideries
tracing fanciful patternings.
Lowered Necklines Will
Be Welcomed by Many
Those among women of fashion
that have been doing penance in
wearing high unflattering necklines
just to be stylish will welcome the
good news that incoming dresses
for spring assure a return to be
coming soft lines. No longer will
the throat have to be swathed in
high drapes and fitted bands. The
new trend is to square necks, and
pointed ones also. This, together
with short youthful sleeves, pre
sents a very promising outlook.

Lesson for January 24
TWO MIRACLES OF MERCY
LESSON TEXT—John 5:2-9; 6:8-15.
GOLDEN TEXT—The same works that I
do. bear witness of me. that the Father
hath sent me. John 5:36.
PRIMARY TOPIC—Jesus Feeding Hun
gry People.
JUNIOR TOPIC—A Boy Who Gave Away
His Lunch.
INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC—
Why Did Christ Work Miracles?
YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC—
The Significance of Christ's Miracles.
The world is looking for super
men, those who can work “mira
cles,” and thus afford an easy solu
tion for the problems of the home
and of the nation. Men are ready
to marvel at and follow in almost
abject submission those who prom
ise riches without labor, food with
out toil, short cuts to comfort and
satisfaction. Often they are con
tent if they only have something
over which they may exclaim
“Wonderfull” whether it be use
ful or not.
The miracles of God, through his
servants and the Lord Jesus Christ,
are not mere marvels or wonders.
They are not for the advancement
of the cause of any man or for
personal glory. They are the mighty
signs of an omnipotent God wrought
for the good of men, for their spir
itual enlightenment and as a testi
mony to the one true God.
The two miracles of our lesson
present Jesus Christ as a Lord of
merey and grace—ready to meet
the needs of men. Deep and real
was his compassion as his heart
yearned over needy humanity
It is suggested that in the study
and teaching of this lesson we vary
our plan somewhat and present sev
en seed thoughts found in the two
portions assigned. It is also urged
that the context in both chapters be
read with care.
I. We Are Impotent Folk (John
5:2).
The words well describe not only
those who lay helpless about the
pool of Bethesda but they fit us as
well. Oh, yes, we are strong, capa
ble, fearless, but only until we meet
some great elemental problem.
Then we see that we are indeed
“a great multitude of impotent
folk.” The gently falling snow
stopped the undefeated Napoleon.
The silent fog can paralyze a na
tion. Death, sickness—who can stay
their hand?
n. Despair Spells Defeat (v. 7).
Long familiarity with his weak
ness had bred in the man with the
infirmity a sense of despair. Such
an attitude invites defeat. It is
unbecoming to a Christian. Let us
not forget in the darkest hour to
“keep looking up.”
HI. God Answers the Weakest
Faith (v. 8).
Jesus evidently saw in the man’s
despairing reply a spark of faith.
He who believes honors the name of
God. We may need to cry “I be
lieve, help thou mine unbelief,” but
if we believe God will gloriously
meet even our faltering faith.
IV. God’s Command Empowers
(w. 8, 9).
Jesus told the man to “Rise—and
walk”—the very thing he could not
do for his thirty-eight years of life.
But when the Son of God speaks to
us he gives the power to respond to
his command.
V. Works Follow Faith (v. 9).
The man arose, took up his bed,
and walked: Man’s faith in God
and God’s response to faith lead
to man’s action on God’s command.
Too many are they in the church
today who have never stood up and
walked for God.
VI. Look to God, Not at Your Re
sources (John 6:9).
Humanlike, the disciples counted
their money and found it was not
enough to supply food for a multi
tude. And then there was a boy,
but he had only five barley crackers
and two little fish. It almost sounds
like a church-board deciding to
close the cross-roads church and
let the Devil have the boys and
girls, because it costs too much to
keep up the work. God help us to
trust and go on for him. “Little
is much when God is in it.”
VII. Followers for Bread Not
Wanted (v. 15).
Those who follow Christ because
of business advantage and social
prestige know nothing of what it
means to be a Christian. He is not
a bread - making king; he is the
bread of life.
Essence of Prayer
Prayer in its essence is not so
much the expression of our desire
for things at all as of our desire
for God Himself.
Discourtesy
Discourtesy occasions not merely
suffering, but sin; and Christian
courtesy is a “means of grace” to
all who have the happiness to re
ceive it.—R. W. Dale.
The Day’s Work
Let us make haste to live. For
every day is a new life to a wise
man.—Seny.a.
Grieving for Wasted Time
He who knows most, grieves most
for wasted time.—Dante.
