l Jewels and Beads Glitter on Dresses for Every Occasion IMPROVED UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL S UNDAY I chool Lesson By CHERIE NICHOLAS FLATTERING is the wbrd for the p charming dresses that are given a new loveliness with artful touches of gay embroidery and go glittering through the style parade with a wealth of nailheads, sequins, jew els and beadwork. Indeed, this is a season when it is every woman’s duty to look her prettiest in gowns designed to “do something for you.” Now that sparkle for daytime frocks as well as evening gowns is the vogue the new fasluons are playing up glitter for all it is worth. Every woman should yield to the call of black with a dash of color and the gleam of beadwork and jewels. A dress or suit of this description will prove your standby for almost every occasion. Pictured are several eye-appealing fashions selected from a collection of daytime modes de signed and displayed by the style creators of Chicago at a recent winter preview. The good looking black crepe tunic dress shown to the right emphasizes its molded .shoulders and hipline by means of steel nailheads. Shown with it is a high and handsome hat of colorful feathers. You will make a well-dressed appearance in this dress wherever you go. To the left a dressier type spar kles with rhinestones. The slim fitted jacket has rhinestone pockets and is worn over a dress with a sheer yoke outlined in rhinestones. Speaking of sheer yokes, they are a new styling detail that is being worked in fascinating and versatile ways. The latest dresses have yokes of the sheerest black lace, and for extreme flattery designers are styling wools and crepes in Mack or browns or the new deep “black cherry” tones with pastel chiffon yokes, some of which are beaded in matching colors, while others are joined to the dress top and the seaming is concealed under sequin bands and bordering. The figure seated in the center wears a dress of velvet trimmed with revers. There is a double peplum on the pert jacket. The dress is finished off at the neckline with a deep rhinestone necklace and a glittering rhinestone buckle fastens the jacket. Curly feathers cut out of black felt make the pompadour hat, which is graced with a floating veil. The dainty young lady in the back ground to the right is wearing a delectable gown which follows the new trend toward colorful beadwork on black. You can get this model with light blue or dusty pink ac cents. Here is an apt illustration of the new trimming effect achieved with a bordering of embroidery out lining the seams of the sleeves, which have the new wide armholes. The midriff belt in matched bead- work balances the color inserts. Very smart dresses are shown with all-round pleated skirts, the bodice top being of the long-torso, fitted type with an all-over sprinkling of beads or sequins or tiny gold nailheads. The spray of flowers worked in metal threads and beads is placed so as to take the place of the usual bodice clip or orna ment. Black jet beaded sweaters of the middy type are also in smart fashion. (Released by Western Newspaper Union.) Here is a perfect gown to wear under your winter coat. It gives you color. It gives you chic. And this slick town dress designed by Joseph Whitehead is in the best American tradition of perfect work manship. It is of ravishingly col ored striped wool with velveteen touches at neck and waist. The “pinch” beret has bright coq feathers. Like a Cape An English idea borrowed for our Sport coats: Ribbon bands to slip your arms through when you just toss the coat over your shoulders, like a oape. Wear a Scarf or Shawl Over Your Formal Gown As an avenue for expression in romance and feminine allure, there is no accessory that surpasses the witchery of a picturesque scarf or dainty shawl. That is, perhaps, the reason for the preference this sea son for flattering scarf or lacy shawl instead of a bolero or jacket to wear with evening clothes. This new acceptance of evening shoulder covering is further noted in the cape- let shawls of self fabric, or long tulle scarfs matched to the dress. The vogue also accounts for the ap pearance of ostrich neck ruffs in the formal evening picture. 'Down in Back 9 Hems Herald New Silhouette In the very newest sophisticated dresses something happens to hem lines that give skirts an entirely new aspect. That “something” is that hemlines are made to plunge down in the back achieving a most graceful, pleasing new silhouette. For the most part the new “lines’* are seen in slim black dresses for smart afternoon wear, and in nar row, seductive evening skirts. In the formal skirts the narrowness is relieved by a slit at the side that reveals your beautiful evening slip pers. Handkerchiefs Fur fashions lead the way in novelty handkerchiefs with 22-inch chiffon squares bordered with gen uine ermine. “Naughty Nineties’* handkerchiefs are reminiscent of the era when every taffeta dress was the background for a big, bold cab bage rose. Brilliant colors and. effusive floral patternings are fea> tured in this group. By HAROLD L. LUNDQUIST. D. D. Dean of The Moody Bible Institute of Chicago. (Released by Western Newspaper Union.)

CHRISTIAN LOVE LESSON TEXT—John 13:34, 35; I Corin thians 13:1-13. GOLDEN TEXT—We love him, because he first loved us.—I John 4:19. Many important things enlist the interest of the Christian, but we need to beware lest we neglect what Jesus declared to be the first and great commandment—that we love God; and its necessary sequel— that we love our neighbor. If love is forgotten (and who can deny that it often is in our day?), the very foundations are shaken. We need a revival of Christian love. I. Love—A Mark of Discipleship (John 13:34, 35). Do you want to know whether a man is a Christian? Find out whether he loves his brethren. Such is the test Jesus gives in these verses. 1. Commanded. It is the will and purpose of God that the follow ers of Christ should have a real love for one another. It is not to be a matter of impulse or chance, but the love God has for us should con strain us to love one another. Thus is love 2. Exemplified. God has loved us. He does love us. How infinitely much is wrapped up in these simple words! He even gave His Son to die for us because He loved us (John 3:16). How then can we with hold our love from Him and from one another? II. Love—A Christian Grace (I Cor. 13). In a world where hatred prevails, and is in fact glorified, this chapter needs to be read and reread. We find that love is 1. Essential (w. 1-3). Life has many excellent gifts and men quite properly seek after them. How do they compare with love, and what do they amount to apart from love? Glowing, angelic eloquence; the far- seeing eye of the prophet; the at tainments of knowledge and cul ture ; mountain-moving faith; lib eral-hearted charity; martyr-like self-sacrifice—without love they are all as nothing. Apart from Christ and His love operating in our hearts and lives the worthiest at tainments of men are vain and empty. Love is the very essence of a satisfying and useful life. 2. Effective (w. 4-7). Does love really work, or is this just a fine- sounding but obsolete theory? It works. Think of the things in life which irritate and depress us; then put opposite them the qualities of Chris tian love as given in verses 4 to 7, and you will agree that what this world needs most of all is love. Remember that talking about love or reading about it or studying it in the Sunday school will not make it effective. We must put it into practice. Why not start now? You will be surprised at the results. 3. Eternal (vv. 8, 12). Many gifts are only temporary in their usefulness; in fact, almost every thing that man makes or .does (apart from his service for God) is transient. Even so vital a matter as prophecy shall one day find its end in fulfillment. Hope shall eventually find its longing expecta tion satisfied. Faith will be justified in seeing what it has believed. Childish things will be put away by the full-grown man, knowledge will increase and darkness disappear. But love—love is eternal. It never fails, and will never fail. God is love and God is eternal. From all eternity and unto all eternity love continues. Therefore, we agree with Paul who in the verse preced ing this chapter (I Cor. 12:31) says that while you may covet the best gifts, here is the more excellent way —love. Let us be clear about this. Love is not a substitute for regeneration, and certainly regeneration is no ex cuse for lack of love. Read John 13: 34, 35 again and remember that if we are Christ’s disciples we will count it a high privilege to keep this first and great commandment of love. Dependence on God Poverty in any shape helps to stir in man a sense of need, a disposition to consider himself as dependent. . . The real puzzle of life consists not in the fact of widespread poverty but in that of widespread affluence; in the fact that so many are suf ficiently endowed with “goods” as to believe they can live by them, and so cease to look for their true life to God their Father.—E. Lyttleton. Death Becomes Transparent And so the empty tomb becomes the symbol of a thoroughfare be tween life in time and life in the un shadowed presence of our God. Death is now like a short tunnel which is near my home; I can look through it and see the other side! [n the risen Lord death becomes transparent. “O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy vic tory?”—Dr. J. D. Jowett. OIGHT now, your tweed or ^ camel’s hair suit for fall will take a new lease on life bright ened with this matching set of weskit, cap and mittens.

The Truth First Actor—I played Hamlet once, in the West. Second Actor—Did you have a long run? First Actor—Seven miles. His Right When a crowd of people gathered to watch a fire, a policeman kept moving them on. One man refused to go. "Why should I move along?" he de manded indignantly. “You're letting that fellow over there stay." The policeman smiled. “Well, he's entitled to," he replied. “It's his fire.” His Trouble Modern Orator—My friends, I am full of uncertainty. Then a number of people in the audience looked at one another and hoarsely whispered: “He must have had hash for dinner.” LaGuardia, Penniless Came to the Right Place A few years back, Fiorello LaGuardia, New York’s peppery mayor, was addressing a group of Salvation Army workers before a large audience. The mayor gave a long and fiery speech in praise of the organization. At the finish, the plate was passed. When it came to LaGuardia, he reached into his pocket for money. A blank look came into his face when he could not find any. He fumbled desperately in all pockets. Sensing his predicament, the commissioner of the Army said in a loud voice: “That’s all right, the Salvation Army is the right place to come to when a man hasn’t a nickel!” America’s favorite cigarette gift package is now making its appear ance in the windows and on the counters of local dealers.

No importance is attached to individual birthdays in Japan. Ages in that country are comput-. ed from the first day of the year, rather than the day of birth. Thus two Japanese children, although born 364 days apart, are legally the same age. What to give the men in Uncle Sam’s services for Christmas is already solved for you by surveys made m the Army, Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard.. Ciga rettes and smoking tobacco head the list of gifts the men want most.
