Lovely Sheer Cottons Star
In Summer Bride Picture

'T'HERE’S no need to
■*■ quote imposing statis
tics to prove that there’s a
big boom on in weddings.
All anyone has to do is
glance at the daily society
columns in the newspapers
and count her invitations to
know that weddings are making an
all time record.
Today’s young couples, for the
most part, believe that budget plan
ning is the better part of patriotism,
and at the same time 1943 brides
are more anxious than ever to look
their loveliest on this day of days—
a picture for him to carry ever when
he goes forth to war. The answer—
a wedding gown of one or other of
the beguiling cottons that will have
a matchless beauty all its own no
matter how inexpensive it may be.
Girls in cotton bridal gowns are say
ing “I do” more often than ever
before in fashion history.
What an enchanting picture they
make, the organdies and nets, mar
quisettes, cotton laces and so on, that
are being fashioned into wedding
gowns so entrancing no bride could
wish for anything prettier or more
flattering. A dress of cotton lace
and net with bodice of lace teamed
with a billowy skirt made up of al
ternate bands of lace and net, as
shown-to the right in the illustration,
will make any bride look as if she
had stepped out of the pages of a
fairybook story.
This model is perfectly charming,
either in all white or an exquisitely
delicate pastel (preferably pale
pink). It is fashion news of no lit
tle importance, this matter of a de
lectable tint for the wedding gown.
The matching net headdress that
accompanies this net-with-lace dress
is adorable, and it is the last word
in chic. The heart neckline and the
bracelet sleeves add youthful accent.
This dress will prove a perfect gem
when it comes to functioning as a
dinner gown on gala evenings after
the ceremony. Best of all as ex
quisitely fragile looking as it is,
you’ll find that it will come up smil
ing after each laundering.
Wedding marches and organdie
brides will be playing a most charm
ing duet the whole summer through.
A garden bride who doesn’t want a
train to trail in the dew does well
to select a simple white organdie
like the ankle-length gown pictured
to the left. The very simplicity of
this dress is its charm, with its
wide ingenious sash and triple
tucks around the hem. The leghorn
hat makes the costume resemble a
Sir Joshua Reynolds’ portrait.
Often organdie is handled in a
muchly beruffled manner, for the
bride, since, as you know, ruffles and
frills and ruchings of cotton sheers
animate summery frocks in all sorts
of delightful ways this season. A
recent bride who was greatly ad
mired looked really beautiful in a
beruffled organdie, youthfully styled,
her headdress instead of the usual
veil being a halo of self organdie
arranged most artfully.
As to other cottons for the wed
ding dress, a formal point d’esprit
gown with a train as long as the
WPB allows, makes its wearer look
indescribably lovely. In the young
manner also, is an irresistible frost
ed organdie with a pinafore look,
created by ruffles over the shoulder
and forming a peplum flounce. A
white organdie with ruffled train,
sleeves, skirt panels and headdress
achieves a costume that would make
any wedding a memorable occasion.
For the more mature bride, but just
as picturesque and flattering, is a
stunning wedding gown that has a
fichu of the organdy with medal
lions of lace appliqued on both
skirt and waist. Most of these bridal
gowns come with equally lovely
bridesmaids’ dresses in pastels that
can carry on as summer evening
gowns for the duration.

Pert Leghorns
Comes the message from fashion
headquarters that a renewed inter
est is being shown in leghorn hats
for little girls. Any wee maiden will
look her prettiest this summer in a
hat like the leghorn straw shown at
the bottom. This cunning chapeau
has a woven brim laced with narrow
green velvet ribbon. A green gros-
grain bow ties beneath the chin so
that windy days this treasured bit of
headgear will “stay put.” A gen
erous application of ribbon makes the
other hat most flattering to the pert
young miss whose eyes are saucing
you from under the brim.
Satin for Suits
Is New Vogue
There is a new vogue on. It is
suits of gleaming “duration” satin
in either black or brown. You will
also see many coat dresses and
suave one-piece modes of satin. The
news of satin for hats is also being
heralded far and wide. You will
find in smart fabric collections both
all-silk satins, and particularly good
looking is a range of Bemberg-rayon
satins. There is a novelty Bemberg
• satin being shown which is wonder
fully attractive, in that it has a re
verse side of bright stripes in Mexi
can colors that is surfaced in a soft
duvetyn-like finish. It is stunning
used in fly-back drapes or as trinrw
ming accent.
Hat and Bag Sets
It does not matter how simple or
modest looking a suit or dress may
be, it will take on an air of impor
tance and distinction by teaming it
with a gaily colorful hat and bag set
such as milliners are taking such
pride in turning out this season. Look
about in the hat bars and you will
come across such alluring twosomes
as a tiny calot to wear back on the
head together with an imposing en
velope bag made of a basket weave
fabric and braided all over with
color-bright soutache.
Novel Gloves
One finds this season in glove col
lections many interesting novelties.
The fabric glove that is all-over em
broidered is very attractive. Long
black gloves have appliqued velvet
butterflies up the arm. A crochet
mesh white glove has very wide flar
ing cuffs. A black lace glove carries
lavish lace frills about the wrists.

chool Lesson
By HAROLD L. LUNDQUIST. D. D.
Of The Moody Bible Institute of Chicago.
(Released by Western Newspaper Union.)
Lesson for June 27

JOHN’S COUNSEL TO CHRISTIANS
LESSON TEXT—n John 4-11; HI John
5-U.
GOLDEN TEXT—Beloved, I pray that In
all things thou mayest prosper and be In
health; even as thy soul prospereth.—Ill
John 2.
Christians need guidance, especial
ly in their home and church rela
tionships. The apostle John, under
the inspiration of the Holy Spirit,
wrote the two personal letters known
to us as II and III John. They
abound in sound spiritual, practical
advice. Note that these two words
belong together, for what is truly
spiritual cannot help but be tre
mendously practical and perfect for
the direction of thought and life.
In these letters five admirable les
sons are taught. Let us give heed
to them. They are appropriate to
our day.
I. Set an Example Before Your
Children (II John 4-6).
We may not like to admit it, but
our children are largely what we
make them by their training—or
lack of it—in the home. Parents
have the grave and at the same time
precious responsibility of being what
they want their children to be. We
set the mold of their thinking and
acting, not only about material
things, but mentally and spiritually,
which is far more important.
Above all we must teach them by
precept and example to love God su
premely, and to walk after His com
mandments. Father, mother, have
you done your duty? Are your chil
dren “walking in truth” (v. 4)?
II. Be on Guard Against False
Teachers (II John 7-11).
We are not to countenance false
teaching even by entertaining such
teachers, or having close fellowship
with them. To create the impression
before the world and the Church
that they are "not so bad,” by ap
pearing as their friends, is to par
take of their evil works (v. 11). This
is a serious matter, and one which is
a problem in the Church today.
Such teachers may easily be rec
ognized. They are aptly described
by Dr. Douglass; “In all ages the
Church has been plagued by those
who want to substitute something for
pure Christian faith, or to embroider
it with bright ideas of their own con
ceiving. Such people may try to
strip religion of its supernatural as
pect and reduce it to a merely ra
tionalistic system. They may seek
to slyly loosen the moral standards
of the Church because their own lives
are deficient when measured by such
standards. They may try to mini
mize the teaching of the cross be
cause it stands for sacrifice.” Watch
against them, and stand against their
destructive teaching.
III. Be Diligent in Putting For
ward True Teachers (III John 5-8).
The door which should be closed
against false teachers should be
opened wide to those who are faith
ful teachers of the truth.
This refers primarily to the hos
pitality of the home, and reminds
us of a grace which has been all but
forgotten in these days * of small
apartments.
Whether we are able to open our
homes to God’s servants or not, we
can show a Christian spirit of genu
ine hospitality in helping to bring
them forward (v. 6) in their work.
This may be done by gifts of money,
by kindness shown in time of need,
by a real interest in their work, by
recommending them to others who
wish to hear the truth.
Do everything possible, then, to
hinder the false teacher, and be just
as diligent to put forward the minis
try of the true man of God.
IV. Do Not Trust Proud, Self-
Seeking Leadership (III John 9-11).
A man may be orthodox, and in
tensely loyal to the denomination,
and at the same time be a wicked
man whose example is to be
shunned. No word is said against
the teaching of Diotrephes. He was
not condemned for being careless
about the affairs of the church, or
unfaithful in his attendance and de
votion to its interest as he saw them.
The sin of Diotrephes was pride,
a desire to be the boss of the church,
“No. 1 man” in its affairs. Lacking
the true spirituality which always re
sults in humility, he opposed the
apostle. Not only did he' refuse to
receive him, but used pressure on
others who were willing to be hos
pitable.
V. Emulate the Life of the Man
of Good Report (III John 12).
A good man! No words of praise
could possibly surpass such a testi
mony. The world is full of brilliant,
skilled, wealthy and prominent peo
ple, but there is an appalling dearth
of good men and women.
How refreshing to meet, and how
delightful to know, such a man—such
a woman. Like Demetrius, they
have not only the witness of the
Church, and of the truth, but also of
“all men.” But last week we said
the world hates real Christians. It
does, but it also respects them, and
is forced to bear witness to their
reality and goodness.
Professed fellowship with God in
Christ which does not result in good
ness of life may well be scrutinized.

Serve Perfect Little Cakes for Garden Party
(See Recipe Below)
Keep Cool!
Foods that don’t cook the cook
and leave a lot of K.P. after the
party is over are
two golden rules
for summer en
tertaining. If you
are baking any
thing, try baking
in cool morning
hours, and if
there’s a warm
dish to be served, make it some
thing that doesn’t require more than
15 minutes of cooking.
If your table decorations and set
tings are cool appearing and the
food carries this out further, then
you will have done a lot toward mak
ing your guests comfortable. Re
freshments may be simple, in fact,
they should be, for then guests and
hostess alike can enjoy themselves.
Here’s a lovely salad that’s the
last word in coolness and smooth
ness, thereby filling the order for
perfect summer refreshment:

Lynn Says:
Salad Pointers: Have all salad
ingredients as cold as possible.
Chill salad bowl and salad plates
to assure absolute coolness to sal
ads.
To skin tomatoes; Hold tomato
on fork over flame and turn slow
ly for about 1 minute. Slip off
skins.
To flute cucumber. Peel, length
wise, and run prongs of fork
through lengthwise, then slice
cucumber thinly.
To sieve egg yolks or whites:
This is pretty for garnishing. Sep
arate yolks or whites from hard-
cooked eggs, place in a small
sieve, and rub through with wood
en spoon on salads to be gar
nished.
To decorate lettuce: Dip edges
in paprika.
