Mrs. William Meinel, of Chicago,
who has been visiting her mother,

Gretna cottage for several weeks,

whore she will spend a few days
prior to going to Vancouver to sail

sia fop China.
The only stop en route will bo

Mrs. A. L. Groff, is with them, but
Visiting the Shops With Adele
BY ADELE
HIPPITY - HOP, hippity - hop,
goes the little rabbit, and
flippity-flop, flippity-flop goes
the little fish —or rather, that is
what thev would do if they had half
a chance. Just at present, how
over, they calmly wait in the win
dow of the Marianne Toy Shop,
Locust street, for the time when
someone will present them to a
happy, little boy or girl for a birth
day gift. And waiting with them
aro many other interesting toys.
Right next to the fuzzy, wuzzy rab
bit rests the dcarept, queerest bub
ble set you over did sec, while near
by a miniature comb and brush of
palest blue while away the hours In
self-admiration. Dear me, I 1 wish I
weren't too anctent to play with
them myself.

I would ask for nothing more of
life than to be made into an
antique bureau such as the one I
saw recently at Saltzgivcr's Art and
Antique Store, 22 3 North Second
street. Made in Empire style, with
scroll fror.-t and fascinating glass
knobs, it is the exact replica of the
original. And one glimpse is suf
ficient to convince even the most
skeptical that the aforementioned
original must have been a perfect
model of simplicity and symmetry.
As is ever the case with antique
furniture, it possesses an air of
elegance and dignity all its own.
Nothing would so add to the at
mosphere of a room as the acquisi
tion of just such a bureau.

—ami since that is the case, don't
you think we should treat them ac
cordingly, boys? Of course we
should. Remember that, and the
next time you take your best* girl to
the movies or a dance be sure to
make the evening complete by drift
ing into Weaver's, 29 North Second
street, and treating her to a deli
cious sundae or cool, - refreshing
drink. In, other words, live up to
the old saying, "Sweets for the
sweet." It surely does pay. That is
why we suggest acquiring the
Weaver habit. For it is there that
expert dispensers mix sparkling,
thirst-quenching drinks and make
those tempting, nothlng-could-taste
better sundaes.

Mrs. Miller Gives Lawn
Party at Fairview Home
Mrs. Edgar Miller gave a lawn
party on Saturday evening at her
home, 408 Fairview avenue, West
Fairview. These were her guests:
Mrs. Timer. Erb, Mrs. William
Smeltzer, Mss Laura Langletz, Mrs.
E. Hepford, Mrs. Charles Lilley, Mrs.
Henry Watchman, Mrs. Charles
Rapp, Mrs. John Celan, Mrs Leo

John Adams and Miss Nevada
i Adams, of Marysville.
NO wonder Russia is in such a
turmoil. I'd be rather upset
myself if I thought for an in
stant that I' had furnished the in
spiration for anything so gorgeous
as the Cossacks which I saw to-day
at the Cloos Shop in the Penn-Har
vis. One lovely model of pale blue
Georgette crepe is particularly at
tractive, for despite its Russian
origin, it flavors strongly of the
Orient. Wonderful, Oriental em
broidery, in rich shades of tan, bluo,
bronze, gold, and deep, deep red
aids a braid tie, ending in silken
tassels and vari-colored beads, in
giving it ii distinctive note such as
few garments attain. Many others,
equally as charming, are also being
shown.
( ( A LL work and no play makes
l\ Jack a dull boy," so we
have often been told. Is
it not therefore logical to believe
that we attain the ideal arrange
ment only through a well-balanced
combination of the two? Some of
the greatest educators of the day
are strong advocates of this princi
ple, hence they ardently recom
mend the use of Child Improve
ment Games. At the Art & Gift
Shop, 105 North Second street, an
excellent assortment is being shown.
And the mother who supplies her
youngsters with one or more of the
numerous varieties will be amazed
at the rapidity with which they
learn such fundamentals as spell
ing, multiplication and the names
of birds and animals, while at their
Play.
AND now the women are flock
ing to Doutrichs! Incessantly,
all day long, they wend their
way to the children's department on
the balcony, where boys' wash suits
are being sold at reduced prices. For
getting tiresome, sewing machines,
they purchase the finished product,
all made up in patterns designed
by experts, for less than the ma
terial would cost them. Realizing
the futility of trying to match their
wits with designers who devote all
their energy to planning these suits
some mothers have been buying as
many as ten at a time. They are
certain that in no other way can
they procure such style and quality
at such a saving of money and
energy.
