■i. - j! . -, \ A. R IBBON jsashes-.añd' girdles ' are am,ong,the, pretty; things that we have always with us and that-women make-for thémselves. They are varied with ) the- changing seasons - so ' tímt there is always,something new, .to re1' port about-.them. Just now they are ^ «Iven to extra ornamental front pieces '■of. ribbon, beads or' other decorative -mediums made separately and tacked over-the girdle at the front. Ä-pretty' example appears in the picture and it fastening and a-bow or rosette of the ribbon placed ;at each side of the-bnnd. There is a certain uncertainty in the lines of the new fall coats, but it.serves to give an wadded fillip, to the -fashion, and perhaps Is a.'blessing In disguise, since It will prevent the repe tition of models and materials where all coats follow the same style influ ence. \ The 'straight-line coat is undoubtedly the basic style of the season, but since Ribbon Sashes Are Popular 4 can be very effectively developed by using plain satin ribbon for the sash and narrow, metal-edged ribbon, in rococo effects, for tlie latticework and small'flowers that make the orna ment. Wide ribbons, lavishly used In bows and loops • to simulate the old-fash ioned bustle effect, have been used to introduce a new style note into pretty draped afternoon frocks this fall. They vary the almost universal straight- line silhouette in a pleasing way. The new season-brought’ in many two-toned, ribbons in the narrow» as well as wide widths. The narrowest widths are used on dainty boudoir or breakfast sacques made of light silks. The ribbons are made into tiny flat bows and set on In rows. If one cares its introduction coats with tiers and circular skirt effects have appeared, and' already have established them selves as graceful additions to the mode. There is a vast difference be tween an “addition to” and a “depar ture from” the fashion, uud in this case the udvent of the more ornate line has not affected the good style of the perfectly plain coat. Shown in the illustration are charac teristic models of both kinds. The coat at the left Is a sports affair, made of camel’s hair In a huge plaid pattern. The collar is of gray fox and fastens closely about the neck. The coat Is en tirely Innocent of buttons or clasps, the only fastening being a narrow tie of the material. The sleeves are of a 4 There are some narrow ribbons with one scalloped edge and a drawstring along the straight edge. It' is very easy to simulate flowers of many sorts with this kind of ribbon. These same ribbons are used with stamped patterns made for embroidery floss in stead of. regular embroidery. * Little baskets, outlined with narrow old-gold ribbon, are filled with flowers made o f the scalloped ribbon. This mukes a lovely adornment for cushions, bed spreads, table scarfs and the like. This scalloped ribbon Is also used for cov ering small fans shaped like palm-leaf fans. The ribbon, is put on in’ rows. Ribbon headbands for'little girlB on dress-up occasions appear to rival just now the popular hair bows. The bands are drawn about the head and fasten under the hair at the back. Snap fas teners or hooks and eyes are used for modified kimono pattern, with deep cuffs. The model pictured at the right Is essentially a dress coat. Collar arid cuffs are ornamented with rows of vel vet ribbon loops. \ The long lapel and irregular tiers on the skirt are used to modify the straight line of the mode. A huge-buckle of whlte-and-black gala- lith provides the fastening. (©. 1923. Western Newspaper Union.) Pink Roses.

The wolf that figures in it is a wolf you’ve often heard o f / He’s the widely ceiébrated wolf-at-th e-door. Most men work all their lives to be rid of him. When he is gone they stop working—and, too often, back he comes! Only a few get-rid of him for ever.- And the- sense of security that takes his place is considerably more dangerous than the wolf could possibly be. t Most of us need the wolf in our business. When, of a “morning, we glance out of the window and see him sitting hungrily on the doorstep we, take more interest in our day’s work. When we are on the Job the thought of him keeps us hustling. And by keep ing hustling we put our brain in con dition. which' helps a lot with’ the next day’s work. The wolfless man is a worryless man, and a worryless man isn’t much use in the world. The man who knows he enn’t be fired helps very little around an office or shop. Necessity did not limit her family to the oné child—invention. She is the mother of effort, of achleve- when the wolf was leering at .them ns they'.ieft the house for the job! The habit persisted. Poverty is an ugly thing which we all should avoid. But the very, avoid- irig.xpf It stimulates ambition, brings out such talents as we may have'and opens .'our eyes to our own possibili ties.

Winter, which we associate with our friend the wolf, forces men to step lively on the road to competence. And the highest achievement is to, be found in tlje temperate zones, where there is winter enough to keep men thinking nbout the coal supply and not enough, as in the Arctic regions, to keep them In the house all the time.

WALKER DO YOUR BEST OU cannot by any newly conceived L process hope to get the best and apply it to the best use, unless you give the best. The studious scholar stands at the head of his. or her class simply be cause he or she gives the best—the closest attention/ the deepest thought and the hardest work.. Concentration is wearisome, but it produces ef fective results and yields enduring re wards which can be attained in no other way. In art, literature, busina»s and in the crafts, those who become con spicuous for their skill, give their best energy in perfecting themselves, and as a result they hold the foremost place in their respective callings, command the most respectful consid eration and win the highest recom pense. Life to those who give their best wears a diffèrent aspect from that which is so dimly seen by the heod- less. heading for no particular port, lacking the ability to judge the direc tion of the wind or energy to study the charts. Close application, holding constantly to one specific course, working1 hour after hour without every little while pausing to scan the clock, cannot In their state of indifference be done. Such persons In their reflective moments may he annoyed at the prog ress of their rivals, but the annoynnee lacks strength to shake them from their lethargy. Any continuous exertion calling for excellence. Is too violent, too wearing to body and mind to be lolernted. So they remain passive, and when the frequent ugly moods come upon them they censure the fates for their pitiful plights.
