They have trunks full of organdie frocks, satin coats, summer furs and taifeta day frocks. They have only lightweight snort suits and their coats are of the thinnest trieolette or wool jersey. And usually one good cold snap does visit even the warmest of the resorts. This season it was .especially bitter at one or two of the smartest of the re sorts.

It is likewise a good seleetiou for the woman who needs to buy a suit to wear during late winter days and those of early spring. Tweed is very smart at the present time and the tweed suit has an air of distinction that makes its high price well worth while. To this suit there is a scarf attached that gives it an nir of distinction. The suit is of a dark gray mixture and the scarf is (if the same tone, with nngorn outtonnoiing in a lighter gray. The fringe on the scarf is made from the same sort o! angora wool. The narrow leather be't encircles the suit jacket nnd gives trim ness to the waistline.

She had called her baby Barbara and she loved the small soft thing with a fierceness that resented any outsiuu interference. During her days of con valescence when she had nothing to do but wait till the baby was brought to her all fresh and sweet like a rose, or for her meals that Mrs. Anderson tried to make as appetizing as possible, ir Sr.ln lirnl ii erent. deal of time to think. Her great problem seemed to bo what she was going to uo wun ner me. Al though a certain amount of tolerance and better understanding had come to her as far as Jimmy's mother was con cerned, Virginia saw very plainly that it would be impossible for her to stay at the Andersons. She must get away and lead her own life, nnd to do that she must make money enough to take care of herself and her little girl. So far life had taken 'Virginia and had done what it liked with her. From the sheltered existence of her girlhood she had been suddenly thrust into married life nnd her lessons had been those of experience. One dav when she was well enough in i-n rlowns-tairs and lie in the swing on the porch, Mrs. Anderson spoke to her about the tuture. .urs. vnuersun that afternoon tj-pified the life of Crj-stal River, the life that sue was asicing i ir WHEN PEGGY SAYS "I WANT' NO ONE DARES REFUSE HER She Learned to Get Her Own Way When She Was a Little Child and SheJIas NevcrBcen Taught to Bear Disappointment UTyVT I want to!" exclaims Peggy D with nn easy, pout. And, that settles It. She does. It makes no dif ference If "it" Is buying ten cents' worth of candy, or going out on a rainy day In thin satin slippers with nothing over them. It has nlways been that way with Peggy. No matter how big or how foolish or how impossible her desire was, if she wanted it she hnd lo have it. As long as she wants the world to go on revolving it probably will, but I hate to think what would happen if Peggy cicr got dizzy and wnnted It to stop-; She calls another girl on the telephone. "What aro you doing today?" she asks in a descending scale that is almost u whine, "Well, come on clown town to lunch with me. Yes, you have to, I want you to. You don't have lo do anything else, you know." The other girl may be compelled to refuse the invitation on account of her own illness, of illness in the family, of being'too busy, o another engagement. But Pecev "won't take no for un an swer," and bhe puts the full force of her pleading whiuo into her voice, and involuntarily assumes the pout, which cannot bo seen and does no good over the telephone. "But you must, I want jou to, she insists. And if the other girl sticks to her duty and does not go, the pout changes to a straight angry line, and Peggy slams down the telephone. THERE Is character behind tfiat pout of Peggy's. It is not entirely her fault that she feels the importance of her desire so strongly. When sho was very small she used to want things with her whole being, as every email person does. If she couldn't have them, she pouted prettily. If that worked she smiled. If it didn't, she drew the pout down Into a grimace, added u loud ru,k, and some tears and she always Zt what sho wanted. She lexrncd, as verr small people do If they aro allowed t that when the pout dldnV work all she had to do was pretend U draw ,u the corners of it nnd she would t what she wanted. No, I do not fepl" tnat reggy is entirely to blame for th pettish, discontented expression of that pretty mouth of hers. If she had been taught to pull In that pout, when she couldn't have things, or if she had ever learned that there were some tWugs she couldn't have at all, there would be a much prettier expression there. Dlban. pointmeut nnd deprivation hurt, but they do help charncter. It seems almost a crime to allow a child's natural, selfish inclinations to "run wild" like weeds and choke out all the good qualities that might be devel oped and trained to make that child a lovable, fine woman. She mnv im.-. great possibilities in her nature, but she must be an unusual child to brine mem uui. uiiu uu.m iia-iu up mi oy ner young, untaught, unguided self. Before we put Peggj; down in our mental note- or any of those ugly things. let's look back n little and find out how Pegcy "got that way." And then perhaps we'll reconsider nnd put her down as "overindulged, untrained and unfnr. tunate." Yes, unfortunate, because she " nas never nau u iair cuanco lo develop an admirable disposition.

"Virginia, Mr. Anderson and I want vou to Know mat tins is your, uonie, jours nnd Barbara's." She finished with a little note of triumph and looked at the girl expectantly.
