DISC HIRES •: IT Mill it nciifl ll irici McNEIL DRUG CO, Inc. 630 Broad Btroot—Jackson villa, Florida Jewels and Dinner Hats Lend Enchantment to Simple Gowns By CHERIE NICHOLAS l. jmhihm T HAT charming custom has been revived of wearing flattering, prettily feminine lit tle dinner hats for dress-up and semi-formal occasions, together with important jewelry to give drama and finesse to the costume. Just now it’s the fashion to dress to please the men in uniform home on furlough, and it seems according to their “say so’’ that they want and really need the uplift and inspira tion of seeing their wives, their sis ters, their sweethearts, their cousins and their aunts look their most charming selves. In the spirit of patriotic conser vation that now prevails it is not so women are not buying so many gowns as heretofore, but for n6w and throughout the duration they plan to arrive at chic and charm and versatility by means of a care fully selected wardrobe of inter changeable accessories. Especially in matter of their dinner gowns and street-length semi-formal frocks are they relying upon glamorous acces sories to prettify their costumes and give them style distinction and al lure. To add to the zest for this smart formula of a simple frock topped with a fetching millinery confection, plus striking jewelry ensembles, comes the assurance that fashion’s stamp of approval is on dinner hats and swank jewels worn with either street length or longer dinner clothes. In the illustration the magic of a pretty hat that flatters, the efficacy of choice jewelry that will glorify even the simplest frock, is dramati cally set forth. A gay little flatter er is the tiny wisp of a hat shown to the right in the picture. It is made of curled feathers in pale blue and brown. As to the jewelry, it is out standing. The gold loop clip has clusters of rubies terminating in a diamond sunburst effect. The wide gold bangle bracelet has a tailored bew design set with matching jew els. The ear clips are large gold flowers centered with clustered ru bies. The adorable little dinner hat shown at the top tells its own story in a little sealskin pill box that takes on a side ruffle of exquisite black lace that flatters, whether it is worn With a pretty pastel frock as you see it here or with a slim-cut black dinner gown. The earrings, neck lace and bracelet are loops of gold with clusters of pink garnets, and the gold clips are set with the same stones. Everywhere at gala occasions women are wearing entrancing lit tle flower hats that make the entire scene take on a springlike freshness this season. Most notable is the dramatic play that centers about rose themes. There is a wealth of beauty expressed in the dinner hat of black net and red roses illustrated below to the left in the group. The gown with which it is worn is a sleek black dinner dress with flat tering off the shoulder neckline. The rose corsage is gorgeously color ful. The jewel ensemble is of Cey lon sapphires, aquamarines and dia monds. Little white dinner hats worn with ropes of pearls carry out the now- so-fashionable black and white vogue. Also, the present fad for pink and black is leading to a favor for necklaces of huge pink pearls which, ensembled with a pink pearl bracelet and a modish little turban of rose-pink feathers, lives up to fashion’s “be pretty” formula to perfection.

Yarn Embroidery For that fuel rationing that we needs must plan for in terms of warm clothing you will find a “com fy” knitted outfit like this very at tractive sweater ensemble will prove ideal. Because gray is so smartly in fashion the designer chooses a gray wool for the skirt. The sweat er is in matching gray. The color ful yarn embroidery that highlights the neutral gray conveys an impor tant style message. By the way, if you have a sweater that you would like to touch up with color just give it a dash of gay yarn embroidery. You can do this easily, even if you are not an expert with the needle. The yoke effect suggested in this model is very smart. The red knit ted peaked cap completes a most charming color scheme. Dyed Wool Lace Some of the most attractive pastel crepe frocks have yokes or sleeves of wool lace in identical color. Some times the wool lace yoke is finished off with fringe, and at the waistline yarn tassels are added. Here’s How You Can ‘Get in the Scrap’ The idea of making the most of what you have is spreading. It is really growing to be quite a pastime to “make over” or to utilize scraps left over from sewing. Gay accessories can be made, such as quilted hats, drawstring bags, gloves, for which patterns are easily available. An interesting way to make use of small fabric pieces is to block them together (seam them up on the sewing ma chine if you will) and then fashion a smart sports skirt from this new yardage you “manufactured.” - This patchwork fabric has also been successfully and attractively worked into a pretty blouse. You can take yarn, form it into pom pons to place button-fashion down the front of your jacket blouse. A cutout from your print frock can be appliqued on a dark blouse. Striking Buttons, Ties Highlight Side Closing The side-drape fastenings give a new look to incoming print frock fashions. Sometimes the self-fabric tie closing is employed. Then again the button vogue is played up. For the simpler frocks plastic floral but tons are used all the way down the side opening from neck to hemline or along the under arm seam. For dressier modes the newest ef fect is the print that emblazons col orful tropic florals against black, the side-drape fastened with gorgeous rhinestone buttons. Black and white prints (black for the ground) but toned in this way with brilliant jew eled gadgets are of outstanding ap> pearance. Shorter Jackets The trend for brevity in jacket lengths is noticeable in the newer models coming in. The new etons have lost inches and many smart jackets are only waistline depth. The bolero tunes perfectly into the new movement and it is scheduled for smart promotion this spring. IMPROVED UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL S UNDAY I chool Lesson BY HAROLD L. LUNDQUXST, D. D. Of The Moody Bible Institute of Chicago. (Released by Western Newspaper Union.) Lesson for February 21 Lesson subjects and Scripture texts se lected and copyrighted by International Council of Religious Education; used by permission. JESUS THE GOOD SHEPHERD LESSON TEXT—John 10:1-1*. 27-30. GOLDEN TEXT—"I am the good shep herd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.”—John 10:11. Beautiful and meaningful as they are, none of the other figures or types of our Lord’s redemptive work have a stronger appeal than that of the good shepherd. Even those who have never tended sheep nor yet seen them under the shepherd’s care sense the telling aptness of the alle gory of the Good Shepheid. We know how much we are like sheep needing the tender shepherd’s care, and we soon learn to know and to trust Christ as the True Shepherd of the flock. The center of the picture is the Good Shepherd, and it is around Him that we group our thoughts. I. He Knows His Sheep (w. 1-5). At night, whenever possible, the sheep were brought into a fold, a walled-in enclosure with shelters and with a single gate. Many different flocks were kept together under the care of an undershepherd. In the morning the shepherds came to lead forth the flock. They came by the door, not as the thieves of the night, who sought to come in by stealth over the wall. When the shepherd called, his own sheep responded. We are told that, they would not come at the call of a stranger—not being ready to trust him. The application is obvious, and yet a word is in order. We ought to examine ourselves and see wheth er we do indeed know our Lord’s voice. Do we respond when He calls us? Then, too, let us be on the lookout against those who profess to be shepherds, who call them selves "pastor” or “reverend,” and have only one purpose—to despoil the sheep. They are “thieves and robbers”—Jesus said so. They are only interested as lonft as it pays. The true shepherd cares for his sheep. II. He Protects His Sheep (w. 6-15). Not only thieves, but wild animals would attack sheep, and it is said that often the shepherd died to pro tect them from harm. But the hire ling, serving for what he can get out of it, is not interested any longer. When danger appears, he flees. He has not the real shepherd heart and cares not if the sheep be destroyed. Having stolen them to enrich him self, he will not defend them at the cost of his own life. Note the sharp contrast of “I am the good shepherd” with the dark picture of the faithless hireling^. Not only does it magnify His goodness, but it deepens the blackness of their treachery. We should recall that the Good Shepherd is able to protect His sheep; for while He lays down His life for them, He takes it again in victory over sin and death (see vv. 17, 18). The Saviour seemed to have been defeated at Calvary, but He arose again, and ever liveth to make intercession on our behalf (Heb. 7:25). III. He Seeks Other Sheep (v. 16) The other sheep Jesus had in mind were probably the Gentiles. The believers He then had were Jews, but the day was to come when the Gentiles were to hear and believe. His desire for them may well stir in our hearts an eagerness to go out and bring in all—both Jew and Gen tile—who will, by believing in Christ, become members of His one fold. Note the word “must” in verse 16. It does not say “if convenient,” nor “when we can raise enough money,” nor "after our local debts are paid” we will go out and seek others. There is a divine imperative here— it “must” be done. Let us not fail to gather the full significance of the expression “one flock, one shepherd.” We are not in terested in any manufactured unity # of man-made organizations. Certain ly we will not accept union which means compromise of essential truth. But unity under Christ, the one great Shepherd, that we want— yes and will have. He makes that certain—“they shall be one flock.” Let us not put hindrances in the way of that kind of unity, and let us not be delinquent about seeking the “other sheep.” Now a final word. IV. He Keeps All His Sheep (vv. 27-30). These words (said after a period of weeks had elapsed) stress the blessed assurance which comes to those who follow Christ. Jesus re buked the Jews for their unbelief, telling them that they were not His sheep. Those who are His have been giv en to Him by the Father—an eternal gift to Him—and He gives to them eternal life. The power back of this whole mat ter is evident in verse 30. Christ is God. He who is in Christ’s hand is also in the Father’s hand, “and no man is able to pluck them out of the Father’s hand.” Instead of trying to modify that statement, or to quarrel with those who believe it, every Christian ought to accept it and shout “Hallelujah!” School Outfit tl ERE’S the answer to the school outfit or every-day out fit you want to make your little girl.
