ET rr or FATE Tee Ts i NES PANE a ss A ——— —— THE DALLAS POST—THURSDAY, MARCH 12, 19) ~~ & Juniors Like The Look Of Spring Skirts are often fuller; fit is more so in spring fashions; styles are soft and ladylike, easy and elegant. All this suits the young set just fine. For youthful junior figures, closer fit presents no hazards. The abund- ance of ruffles and bows, flounces and frills is equally easy for this group to wear. As for fuller skirts, they have long been great favorites with juniors. The princess line skimmer, the empire look, theeasy shift are inherently youthful and, therefore, particularly right for young set wardrobes. New Notes in Chanel Looks Seen Another fashion spotlighted for ’64 has always been a delight to the junior-size devotee of sportswear. That’s the blazer, appearing now in many variations as the blazer suit as well as in separate blazer jackets. A winner, too, with juniors is the Chanel-influenced easy and elegant suit. One of many new notes for thislook shows in gently ruffled collars. New pocket details, belting and buttoning distinguish other young suits. Since young set shoppers frequently have youthful budgets, too, sports- wear shops and departments are among the first on their list.

Thus it’s to be expected that they will be especially interested in spring’s many styles in stretch fabrics, with the attendant advantages of greater fit and more comfort. 3 The same spirit of adventure and discovery will most probably be seen in their ready acceptance of fashion’s explosion of color, from pale to brilliant, in coats and suits, in dresses and separates. On the other hand, the youthful look of white, as well as its spring importance, Easter Message by Ralph A. Weatherly New life, fresh energy come with Spring after the rain has cleansed the earth from winter’s decay and debris; and Easter the Spring of human hearts brings new light and beauty to restore hope and affirm faith that God’s love has conquered evil. Our joy in the resurrection of Jesus Christ from death, the first fruits of the indestructible economy of God, has caused the Church with sure instinct to set Easter as the Queen of Seasons. There is a trinity of devotion described in Elizabeth Goudge’s ‘Scent of Water”, three cries from the faithful covering true prayer which we re-arrange: “Lord, have mercy; Into Thy hands; Thee I adore”. They sum up our need of forgiveness, our trust in Our Father, and our triumph at Easter with Christ: Boys Afoot Best-dressed boys step into spring in neat grained and smooth leather oxfords, brogues and demi-boots. For both play and school hours, the handsewn leather moccasin is popular with the grade-school male. At home in or out ofclass are comfortable, casual slip ons of smooth or grained leather.

Kolucki Never in the history of the world did mankind live under morestren- uous, uncertain and dangerous conditions. Wars, threats of wars and misunderstandings among na- tions and individuals could drive men to despair. Thanks to man’s faith in God and the belief and hope of a future life to come, keeps man sane and hopeful. Where does this faith and hope get its foundation? In the Resurrection of Christ. The Feast of Easter celebrated yearly brings to the mind and heart of man this truth most vividly. Easter Sunday is one of the most significant feast days of the Chruch for it marks the accomplishment of the Redemption of mankind. Christ’s resurrection from the dead assures us of the great love God has for each one of us. It reminds us of the sole purpose of our exist- ence here on earth. This great feast gives us the strength to carry the crosses of suffering, misunder- standing and discouragement in this world of ours. Truly is this the day the Lord has made. It is a day of joy and hap- piness. May thejoys and happiness of this Easter Sunday remain with you throughout the entire year and give you hope, consolation and courage to bear all ills that may befall us as individuals or together as nations. Fashions Grow For The Girls The flowers that bloom in the spring have nothing onthe fashions that big and little girls will be pick- ing for dress, school and casual wear. For spring, fashion grows a gar- den of fresh, young designs with a simplicity that lends itself to fabric and color interest. Fashion goes free-form for spring, with skimmy and high- waisted shapes dominating dresses, coats and suits. : In dresses and jumpers, the new- est interpretations are tent shapes, with fullness falling in voluminous folds from a drawstring neckline or a wide, rounded yoke. Occasionally, the waistline is dropped, for a slimming new “stretched-out” look. Many dresses are costumes with their very own capes, jackets or coats. The coat-dress and the pleated-skirt dress with blazer jacket are favorites with the younger-than-springtime set. The cape’s the shape of many of spring’s smartest coats for girls. It can be a real cape, or a coat with detachable, reversible, short- cropped or other variety of capelet. Capes also appear as jackets for spring suits. Besides cape coats, the spring coat line-up includes demi-fitted styles, “military” looks, stretched- out styles and collarless coats with a dress-maker look. The Chanel-influence is reflected in coats, as well as suits, with such “Chanelisms” as brass buttons, braid binding and quadrupled pockets. Very much in the Chanel mood are cardigan-collared styles and blazer-jacketed suits and cos- tumes. Very often spring coat and suit sleeves are soft shirtsleeves with cuffs. With girls’ spring styles so simple, fabric and color have never been more important. _ For spring, girls will be wearing linens and linen-like blends, dotted swiss, seersucker, pique, muslin, pima, twill, barkcloth, rayon blends and, of course, cotton. Colorwide, it’s a happy spring for girls with plenty of lights and brights to choose from. Bold floral prints, big and little polka dots, potent pinks and parrot greens ap- pear alongside paler mauve, beige, yellow and pastel shades. The nautical influence is seen in combinations of navy with white, and white with red or navy trim- ming. Little girls will play it pretty for spring, with plenty of stretch and knit fashions in the active sports- wear picture. For summer, girls will be getting in the swim with blouson swimsuits, bikinis, and rugby-striped tank suits. Imaginatively styled beach- wear features wildly printed cover- ups with hoods or hats. i choice.

Prater Prince of Peace : “Christ, the Lord is risen today!’’ Millions of Christians throughout the world will be repeating those words on Easter Day. For He who was born on Christmas Day, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified on Good Friday, arose from the dead on Easter Sunday. Easter tells us that Jesus Christ is more than a figure out of the past, whose teachings still inspire us; He is more than a prophet of the past. He is the Living Lord who offers us all the gift of eternal life. The mes- sage of Easter is a message of victory over Death. Through the Life, Death, and Resurrection, Christ has opened for us all, the gate of ever- lasting life. The full message of Easter is that we need not wait until death claims us to enjoy that new life Christ offers —but we can experience it now, in this earthly life. Eternal life is a present reality for all of us, if we will but turn to the Living Jesus Christ, worship Him, obey Him, and serve Him as our Lord and Master. "*One-Big=-Sacrifice” by Rev. L. E. Peterson Monroe Baptist Church Twelve year old Johnny complained to his mother, “why do I have to take so many baths?’ After a moment’s reflection he sighed, “Oh, if T could only take one big bath that would last forever.” Something similar must have passed through the mind of the Jew when he offered again and again a sacrifice for sin. “Oh, if I could only make one big sacrifice that would last forever.” : > A ten dollar bill has no value in itself. Its value lies in the gold on deposit. Their sacrifices were only symbols of the faith in the “gold on deposit” —the Lamb, Christ Jesus, slain from the counsels of eternity. Christ came to Calvery an obedient, perfect Lamb to sacrifice himself. Thus there was a ‘*One-Big-Sacrifice” to end all sacrifices. It is Finished! Just as I am without one plea but that His Blood was shed for me.
