mer time when all the world Is going
a holidaying, for somehow It's one of
the peculiarities ot the season that we
leave off the conventions with our fur
coats, and we all do things in the dog
days that we'd be shocked to death at
doing at Christmas.
But when you start out to have a
good time in summer, girls, remem
ber the tollgate that you'll find some
where on the road of pleasure. There's
no detour around that.
I know it's hot In the city, and you
are tired and worn after a long weary
day at work in store or office.
The Enticing Call.
Nothing in the world would seem
more enticing to you than a spin in a
good automobile out into the country,
and dinner at a roadhouse out on a
terrace. Therefore It "listens good,"
as Weber and Fields say, when your
employer says something about his
wife being away, and that when the
cat's away the mice will play, and
invites you to be one of a gay party
to motor down to some gayer resort.
Don't do it, girls. There's a toll
gate on that road ol pleasure, and
many a girl has been bankrupted for
life by the price she has paid for a
single automobile ride and a shore
dinner and a bottle or two of cham
pagne.
I know that for many life is dull
and monotonous, all work and no
play, and that this seems particu
larly hard in the summer time when
you see more fortunate girls In gay
sport suits, starting off for long vaca
tions that will be full of tennis and
boating and dancing and the pleasures
that every girl craves.
It's in moods like this when you
feel that fate hasn't given you a
square deal that girls do silly and
rash things, such as picking up the
acquaintance of good looking chaps
who invite them to go to the
beaches with them, or to beer gar
dens or dance halls.
There's a tollgate on that road, too.
Don't forget that. Chance acquaint
ances are Just as dangerous in August
as they are in December, and the
pleasure that you have to buy at the
cost of your 3elf respect comes too
high. It's forth it.
It's Jolly to throw conventions to
the winds in the summer. It appeals
to a girl's sense of daring to wear au
dacious bathing suits that startle the
beholder, and to sprawl around the
beach in undignified attitudes, and to
permit familiarities from men that
she blushes when she remembers it
later on.
Remember the tollgate on that road
girls. It never pays a girl to have a
good time at the sacrifice of her maid
enly modesty and reserve.
The Danger in the Air
Summer Is the time of flirtation.
There's just something about green
trees and glistening water, whether
they axe on a mountain trail or the
seashore, or in a park, there is some
thing about moonlight nights, whether
you are floating on a lake In a canoe
or sitting on a flight of boarding
house steps in the city.
There Is something in a summer
night, whether you are strolling down
an asphalt street or a country lane,
that makes men and women sentimen
tal and soft and niushv. That's when
a girl listens when she ought to shut
her ears, when romance makes wrong
things seem right, and when she does
fool things when she most ought to
be wise.
It takes a strong and level-headed
girl to turn her back and to refuse to
take a sentimental stroll down the
road to love in summer when some
handsome youth invites her to walk
it hand in hand with him. But don't
do it, girls, unless you are very sure
that he is the right man, and that at
the end of the road there's a bona-fide
wedding certificate waiting for you.
Don't Just for the passing pleasure
of the moment get involved in any
compromising and sentimental com
plications that you may spend the
balance of your life repenting.
Remember the tollgate, where all
must pay on the sentimental road.
Never forget that for the pleasure of
loving and being loved woman pays the
highest price in the world.

tive series it will appear soon on this

14 years.
This is a very smart little frock with
new features found in the over bodice that
provides a i generous opening, in the big
armholes and in the circular skirt.
Here, it is made of a plaid gingham
with bands of plain linen and i 9
worn over a blouse of handkerchief
lawn. It will be found a good frock for
immediate wear and also for future needs,
for the model is quite simple enough to be
utilized for school while it is pretty enough
to be worn on summer afternoons. In
either case, the blouse or guimpe is finished
separately. For a more dressy frock,
taffeta could take the place of the gingham
or linen would be pretty in white or in
color. Pink or blue linen with the edges
scalloped would be very charming, the
scallops either bound or embroidered.
