It is with consummate art that deefsigners are creating fects with lace that is injecting new beauty into the current style picNew ture. such as the lovely-ladYork costumes in the accompanying illustration convey. The stunning model to the right represents a most outstanding new theme, that of trimming summer print frocks with frilly black lace edging. In this instance black lace sleeves and edges the gives the skirt a prettily feminine apron effect. The print itself is beige for the background, with a black plume motif. The supremacy of black lace in the summer mode is also given emphasis in the handsome black hat, the brim of which carries out the theme of ihe costume. Matching lace gloves add exquisite finesse to the ensemeye-thrilli- y We have come of age In the last terrible year, we Americana. We begin to tee the great future that open before us, a future In which the nations of the world shall all be friends, shall be speaking, as it were, the same language, shall solve together the age-ol- d problems of want and excess, bitter need and extravagance, Inflated currency, depressed currency, overproduction, underproduction. But this glorious future, that shall remake the whole history of man, will not be reached without acts of separate and Individual heroism on your part and mine. It cannot be reached without our determination to achieve It. It Is there the glorious tomorrow, without fear, without poverty, without war. But the statesmen and diplomats and soldiers who are at the top of all our governments cannot accomplish it It is only the people, ourselves, who can do that Hence it is needful for every woman in the world this summer morning to look her own circumstances, her own conduct severely in the eye, and decide Just where she falls short. Just how much is she helping her neighbors to become loyal and useful Americans? Just what sum of happiness, security, service is she rendering to her own people? 'Devil of a Mess.' Here is a letter that gives the dark side of the picture, I quote it only in part Ive come home," writes Pvt. Bates McVayne, "to a devil of a mess. Maybe my nerves are still shaken from a pretty rotten time in the Pacific. Well, anyway, when I left twe years ago our kid was three days old. It was like death to part with them, but the arrangement was that Marylin and the baby were to live with my mother and sisters, and everything was going to be swell Marylin and the girls quarrelled, and Marylin took the baby and went and lived with a woman friend. Here the baby was so neglected that my mother went and got her one day and brought charges against my wife, in court Marylin then went to live with a man shed met and fallen in love with, and is still there, and the baby too. The baby seems happy, and doesnt know me, of course, and Marylin wants a divorce, but the man she is with wants me to pay for it as he thinks charges of complicity or alienatien of affection could be brought against him if he pays for It Marylin says she will come back to me if I say so, as she feels she treated me badly. My mother and sisters say they will not see me again if Marylin and I are reconciled. What shall I do? I feel like I have no home, no family and no friends. There is a warm welcome home Str Get hold of the little girl . . . lace-lade- n ble. The vogue for lace manifests Itself in endless entrancing ways. One place where black lace is at its pretblack tiest is in the new short-lengtgowns that are superbly styled for wear. The cocktail or dinner-partultra styled dress shown to the left is just such. Here the designer creates the bodice with a checker-boareffect of black lace with crepe, the graceful peplum being entirely of the same exquisite film. The skirt is very narrow, which together with the tapered-i- n waist and the flaring peplum achieves a striking silhouette. The charming confection that adorns miladys smartly coiffed hair is the chapeau-ideto wear with this lovely costume. If you make your own pretty clothes heres a suggestion for a costume that youll take joy in wearing to dress-u- p occasions the whole summer through. Choose for material h for a tired soldierl I am advising Bates to wait; to get hold of his little girl and take her to his mother for a long visit this without antagonizing Marylin or anyone else. Under the circumstances he will have no trouble in getting hold of the child. His sisters will probably be especially gracious with this arrangement, and time to cool off and view the situation dispassionately will be given everyone. Such Women Are No Help. But what takers these five women are, and how far from their conception of things is the idea of giving! Giving help, hospitality, friendship, giving service, cooperation, comfort. Their letters to Bates might have been family chronicles full of content, family gossip, cheering reports, hopeful plans. They might have made it impossible for him to forget that he is loved, needed, missed every hour. Instead they have regaled him on petty suspicions, quarrels, scandals, law suits. He has been tormented by anxieties for his child, regret for his mothers distress, resentment at the infidelity of his wife. If America and the world are ever to emerge from todays terrible shadow of war, it will not be through women like these that they will be saved. We never can solve national and international problems while our own lives are a confusion of discontents, debts, doubts, idleness, indifference, selfishness. We need strong doses of the virtues of faith, hope and charity. Charity toward starving China, of course, stricken Europe, of course, the claims of the Red Cross, the War Chests, the homes and aides and drives and institutions, of course. But faith and hope and charity first of all for our own people the people with whom we have breakfast, and for whom we set the dinner table at night. If each of us plants the three cardinal virtues in die home circle, the world will one day become one great home circle and very close to the Kingdom of God. Berry Season Is Here Blackberries and dewberries are in season now. Plump, full berries with a bright solid color are the choice ones. Since even good quality berries keep only a short time, the housewife should plan to can them or use them otherwise, very soon after the berries reach the home kitchen. Three-fourth- s cup of the berries is about equal to a medium sized apple in food value. The Juice of the berries makes excellent summer beverages and is equally as good in'walc. y early morning one of the very lovely ground prints. Make it up just at simply as you please, finishing off the low neckline and brief sleeves with frilly black lace edgings. Use lace also on the skirt as pocket or to finish off a side drape as fancy may dictate. Your hat should pick up the pink of the print either by placing a rose on your black wide brim or by wearing a devastating little pink flower chapeau with a pink rose at your waistline for glamor plus. It's good style too to accessorize the summer costume with all sorts of pretty lace fantasies. A favorite ensemble includes hat, gloves and bag of black lace. Then there are the dressy black lace dickeys, some of which have lacy black jabots. These are modish with the new black linen town suits or those of dressier black faille, and they ara also tres chic worn with the suit of gay print. A bolero of black lace will prove a treasured possession, for it can be used so effectively in transforming a simple frock into a gown for dress-uwear. Your bare-bac- k d beach dress of black linen or material changes into a charming informal dance frock topped with one of these black lace separates. For more formal wear, a peplum blouse of black lace with either a short black skirt or one of floor length solves the what to wear problem to perfection. As to black lace lingerie, the demand is beyond the supply. Black lace lavished on black slips and gowns and negligees is the last word in chic. The costume slip in lacy black becomes a necessary luxury to wear with the popular black sheer frocks this summer. black-on-pin- k' de-tai- l p black-eyelete- d al Released by Western Newspaper Union.

When you are having cold cuts and a substantial salad as main interest for supper, have something hot in the way of a quick bread just out of the oven.
