Theso decolletes are part the general trend to low fronts which for daytime are variously draped, some energing from a diaphragm drape to form petal- like revers. Even one black ottoman suit jacket has a draped neckline.
LOTS OF TUNICS
The collection is the largest no far this midseason, about 00 models, mostly dressup, Fath keeps a slim pencil line but often poses tunics over it, both; for day and evening.
Some tunica open down the front, others are wrapped over. Those for evening are especially wide Other slim dresses are softened by finlike godets in characteristle Fath style, or by a wide circu- lar panel at one side, either en- crusted or loose.
Otherwise, silhouette is un- changed remaining very short for daytime with waistline well marked. Many black patent leather belts are worn.
LOWER PRICED FORMALS
Cocktail dresses are especially numerous in response to the demand from clients, says Fath, who has also tried to make formal evening gowns at prices lower than the richly Cm- broldered models of the August collection. Cocktail frocks with decollete "a en mourir" include sume in fine pale coloured laces threaded with metal. All are short, some with full romantic skirt, others with low trumpet Dare.

To maintain health and cleanliness, the teeth and gums should be properly brushed three times daily, three to five minutes at a time. The brush- iny is best done after meals. The dental treatment of gum disorders
cannot accomplish permanent results unless the patient is willing to co-operate by good toothbrushing proce- dures at home,

Glive and Turt's Argument
-Each One Wanted the Other to Move-
By MAX TRELL LIVE, the Snail, was movĺnig
slowly (he never went fast) down the path that led across the meadow on the other side of the garden wall. Turt, who was a turtle (and who never went fast either) was coming up the same path. All of sudden they came face to face.
"I beg your pardon, sir!" said Glive, holding himself ир па straight and tall as he could, and lifting his walking-stick a little from the ground as he spoke. “If you don't mind, I'd like to pass!"
"I beg your pardon, sir!" sald Turi, sticking his head out of his shell, and holding his walking- stick a little above the ground as he spoke. "I was coming up this path first. If you don't mind, I'd like you to stand aside until I pass!"
"Nonsense!" said Glive. "I don't intend to move aside one inchi
Won't Move
"Nonsense to you!" returned Turt, rathor sharply, "I don't in- tend to move aside one inch elther! As I said before, I was coming up this path first!"
"That makes no sensel You say you were coming up this path first. I say I was coming down this path first!"
So Clive and Turt stood glaring at each other, both refusing to move aside, until finally, Kaart, the shadow-boy with the turried about name happened to come along.
"Oh!" exclaimed Knari, quite happy to meet his two friends so close together. "Hello Glive! Hello Turt! Why," he asked the next moment, "are you both standing so still?”
"Ask Turt. He'll tell you" sald Glive in an angry voice.
"Oh no! Ask Glive. "sald Turt, just us angrily, "Let him tell you!"
"Well, for goodness-sake!"* said Knarf. “Are you two mad ut each other? What is the matter, both of you?"
Neither Glive nor Turt would budge.
Glive topped his walking-stick on the ground. “As far as I am concerned," he said, looking at Knet, "I can wait here for days and days. I won't move for anybody." With that Güive drew himself back into his shell and shut his door.
Into His Shell
"If he can wait, so can I," said Turt. So he also drew himself back into his shell, as far back as he could, for he wasn't as lucky as Glive. He didn't have a door to shut.
Knarf looked at Glive, and he looked at Turt. "I never saw two such stubborn and sily animals) They're blocking the whole path and now nobody can pass{"
Then Knari sat down on a rock at the side of the path. He start- ed to think of what he could do to make Glive or Turt move aside. But he couldn't think of anything. And by and by Willy Toad came hopping through the tall grass from the direction of the Pine Tree Grove. "Hello!"
said Willy. "What's going on
here? Is this a meeting of a club or something?”
Then Knart explained to Wily the cause of all the trouble.
"Very simple," said Willy.
"Very simple problem. Glive, open your doorf" he shouted Turt, stick out your bend a
