01 rr IT TO WOMEN
OUT IN TMB FIELD WITH GOD
The little cares that fretted me,
I lost them yesterday
Among the fields above the sea,
Among the winds at play;
Among the lowing of the herds,
The rustling of the trees,
Among the singing of the birds,
The humming of the bees.
The foolish fears of what may hap
pen
I cast them all away,
Among the clover scented grass,
Among the new-mown hay,
Among the husking of the corn,
Where drowsy poppies nod,
Where ill thoughts die and good are
born.
Out in the fields with God.
—Elizabeth Barrett Browning.

tel in the afternoon.
new knitted collars and the sport
skirts will be one of the most stylish
costumes to appear in at football
games or other sporting events.
The street costumes, portrayed m
scene five are a riot of color. Black
satin seems to be the most popular
for informal afternoon wear or
street wear, The dresses are era
broidered with gay colors, many
having bright material combined
with the more somber satin. Red
is used in abundance, many hats be
ing without any other color. The
Poiret twill street frocks are pop
ular as ever. The new beltless mod
els were much in evidence. Show
ing these costumes were Mrs. J. W.
McWilliams, Jr., Mrs. Guy Newman,
Mrs. Charles Phillips, Jr., Mrs.
Cooper Newton, Mrs. Donald McMil
lan, Mrs. John Stevens Manley,
Misses Mary Hammond, Virginia
Boyd, Henrietta Brewer, Katherine
Rogers, Carlton Jones, Sara Ran
dall and Elizabeth Norman.
The evening gowns and wraps
proved to be very sumptuous and
beautiful. Mrs. Copper Newton ap
peared in a white chiffon gown,
heavily beaded and worn with a
white Spanish shawl, embroidered in
red roses and made a decided hit.
The other models showed equally
as beautiful costumes, some straight
models, others with the belt line.
They were Mrs. Lewis Thomas, Miss
Virginia Boyd, Mrs. Guy Newman,
Mrs. J. W. McWilliams, Jr., Mrs.
Donald McMillan, Mrs. Charles

was the- appearance to Mendelssohn’s

Show were similar to those in the
afternoon. The models appeared
wearing a number of different cos

noon, all showing the latest modes
and proving as attractive as those
seen earlier.

the apearance of the Harmony Four,

These young men were models for
the correct wear for men. After
their appearance as models they
rendered a number of' snappy song
hits that brought down the house.

seems as popular for men’s wear as
the poudre blue is for afternoon and
evening frocks for women.

among the most popular models for
the well dressed girl.

I often had sharp, piercing pains
through my baek when about my
housework and a steady, dull ache
across my back was a terrible an
