EW YORK.—Mrs. Joseph P.
Kennedy has been an effective
social and political ally of both her
father, former mayor of Boston, and
her husband, am-
Mrs. Kennedy passador to the

the news and Mrs. Kennedy
never been in a very sharp lens

She was one of the prettiest
of Boston debutantes, 30 years
ago, a rollicking girl with black
hair and eyes of Irish blue.
Back home from her convent
training, she taught her father

sang his way to memorable political
fame—riding like a surfboard the
long, lingering ‘‘swipes’’ of the song
taught him by his daughter—‘‘the
flower of his heart.”
Joseph P. Kennedy, her childhood
playmate, was twenty-five years old
when they were
married in 1914.
He borrowed $2,.-
000 for a down
payment on a $6,-
500 house. Their fortunes grew as
their family, with Mr. Kennedy
president of a bank, in a year or two
after their marriage.
Mrs. Kennedy once told a Boston
drygoods clerk that she bought 200
suits and dresses a year. It takes
a heap of shopping to make a home,
like the Kennedys’, and she became
known among her friends as a para-
gon of household efficiency com-
parable to the one in Solomon's off-
hand apostrophe to such skills and
virtues.
Now she is mistress of the
“castle” which was once J.
Pierpont Morgan's home; also
of a beautiful mansion in Bronx-
ville, N. Y., a huge summer es-
tate at Hyannisport, Cape Cod,
and a villa at Palm Beach, built
by one of the Wanamakers.
She is slender and girlish, comely

But she never lets the children
run to unseemly display, hold-
ing them to restraint in regime
and dress. Even without all
these adventitious fixings, say
her friends, she would be an ad-
mirable ambassador's wife, with
her own quite adequate equip-

Bull Terrier, White Dog
When bull baiting was abolished
by law in England, sporting men
developed the bull terrier for dog
fighting and badger baiting. About
1875, dalmatian and pointer blood
were introduced in the strain, mak-
ing them look less like bulldogs.
The bull terrier is always white, has
a long tapering head, wide, deep
chest, stiff, glossy hair and taper-
ing tail. He is gentle and good na-
tured, but fears nothing and is a
good watch dog.
INE sheer cottons are outstand-
ing in the season’s smartest fab-
rics. It is not only that our pret-
tiest evening clothes are being fash-
joned of most intriguing washable
sheers, but the highly significant
style message is that our daytime
suits and ensembles with jacket or
cape, whether strictly tailored or
softly styled, are subscribing whole-
heartedly to the vogue for handsome,
flattering sheers.
Current displays of fine Swiss cot-
tons are making a marvelous show-
ing of beautiful and
weaves that have an elegance and

attend any garden party, any mid-
night dance, any com-

biggest appeal of all,
ever, that tugs at your heart, your
mind and, we were going to say
your pocketbook, but the latter
would be true of these lovely
Swiss organdies, is that as beautiful
as these crisp, cool sheers are,
they come within a price that even
a modest budget can afford.
Call it charm, allure, or glamor,
it's yours and no mistake, when you
wear a daytime dress or costume
ensemble or an evening gown of ex-
quisitely sheer, crisp and colorful
organdie. To justify our enthusiasm
and to prove our point we refer

The ensemble shown to the left
makes a costume ideal to wear now
and throughout the summer where-
ever daytime activities may take
you. Lustrous, transparent black
Swiss organdie makes a tiny sep-
arate bolero and over skirt that but-
tons at a wide waistband over a
softly draped frock of Swiss voile,
embroidered in a trailing vine pat-
tern in bright red to complete a
charming costume of tailored but
feminine charm. You could wear
the black bolero and skirt over other
light dresses.
A most unusual print design adds
to the interest of the party frock
for a young girl, as you see cen-
tered in the picture. The Swiss or-
gandie that fashions it large
white flowers imprinted against a
has
liant shades of rose t a navy
blue background. The crush sash
is of deep rose taffeta, tying in a
youthful bow at the back. The shoul-
der corsage is a single huge pink
and rose shaded taffeta flower.
A dainty frock for a dainty miss is
the fitted and flared party dress to
the right. It is of clear white Swiss
organdie with pin dots of deep blue.
The grosgrain ribbon bows at the
puffed sleeves and down the front
repeat the deep blue accent.
The wide range of organdie types
brought out this season will both
amaze and delight you. Many new
print ideas give fresh appeal to or-
gandies. Mentioning only a few,
there is a print design of little white
plumes scattered over a pink groun
you'll love. A small spaced paisley
motif in deep rich colors on white is
very attractive. Perhaps the most
notable of all are the chiffon or-
gandies in pastel color shadow print-
ed in white, navy or black in a very
exquisite and realistic lace pattern-
ing with floral motifs scattered over
the background,

A COAT CLASSIC
By CHERIE NICHOLAS
Here you have illustrated the coat
classic that is a favorite type this
season, White smooth wool velour
is the handsome cloaking that fash-
jons it. You will find that it slips
over sports or dressy frocks with
equal charm. This style is ever so
good-looking in the new beige, wheat-
tone, copper or mustard wools, to
wear over black or navy dresses.
Of course you know by this time
that no wardrobe is complete this
season that does not include a sep-
arate coat that makes high-quality
wool weave and classic simplicity

NEW CLOTHES FEEL
GRECIAN INFLUENCE
The new afternoon and evening
clothes show the graceful influence
of Greek and Brahmin drapery.

on skirts, subtly accent hip and
bosom lines. Scarves float like
wings from the shoulders, drape
over the head, or swathe the shoul-

Prints are plentiful-dots and
stripes lead the field, and the newest
thing is to use them in combination.
The flower prints range from tiny
conventional sprigs to huge exotic
