HERE are times when you wear the saine frock all through the day: But I know there are other occasiona when you wish to look absolutely fashion right.

So come with me round the clock, and I will show you the new styles for morning, noon and night during the 1930-7 winter season. The majority of morning frocks are simply designed, and where trim- mings are used there is always a reason, Buttons are conventional iu shape.

Pockets are all shapes but always a prae- tient size Stitching and braid take the place of cuffs and finish sleeves and collars.

Fur, as you see from the design sketched at the top, 1s used as a border trimming to em- phasise the sight wait and the modifed full- wess of the skirt.

Checked tweeds with the

new striped patternings or knobbly self-coloured fabrics ure principally employe1, and are smart for town and country wear.

Hut, bags, gloves, bet and shoes should all match, and these supply the note of contrast in your nine to twelve out. The sharper the contrast, the smarter the result.

Basques & Boleros

Round about the tea hour, styles are de- Anitely dressy. Basques nd baleros vie with tuntes of varying lengths for popularity. The former have a very youthfin look, while a tunte the right length gives an air of elegance to the

centre front. At seven o'clock we come to after dark frocks. These are not outly decorative but becam- ing, as they are styles to suit all ages and figures.

Rustling taffelan and stiff striped silk for youthful dance dresses are on picture and period frock lines, whlie rich, heavy. gleaming slipore satin and oft velvet ng brouglit in to requisi- tion for more sophisticated gowns. The latter are cleverly cut on slim-making lines, and any full- ness in the skirt comes well below the hips. For ornamentation two or three large flowers are arranged In a corsage spray for the left shoulder. Dahlias in lovely purple and wine red shades, or black, are mostly used.

Wide Slaves

Evening frocks complemented by a short coat are the most com- fortable wear for our climate. Wide or puffed sleeves, with fur appearing somewhere as a trim- ming, take the place of Tast season's strictly tailored designs. Thin fashion is attractively lus- trated in the frock and bolero cont shown in the third sketch, It a In the new splunch green, and dark brown für has been used on the coat.

A brightly-colored, two intell chiffon scarf, sash, or hankie, are small detalls that put the 1926-7 winter season's fashion note into your party clothes.

This is a much-discussed point in ¦ some offices. It is also a point that interests quite a number of em- ployers.

In the first place, the employer of a very young and untrained girl

naturally only pays a nominal wage

while she is learning ber Job. Few- employers using this type of labour will even consider the applicant until they are assured that she is living at home, and that her family will board and lodge her for a certain period.

When she is fully trained, how- ever-and this should be stated after a proper period-she should receive a wage that makes her independent of the family.

Immediately this happens should be expected to contribute at fiome at least for her actual board,

The whole idea of girls working is that they should feel their job is worth something. IL they are pocket content just to use it as money then they should leave it open to some one who feels the need

to stand on her own feet financially.

ent story. One was from an old Indy-who-les-i-hospital.-

Her fe has known much sorrow, yet she can still write, "Life is very beautifu, it's worth having."

She ends her letter with the words, "Life without friend-

ship is like the sky' without the sun."

The other letter was from a young girl who is starting life and in it is the rather starting assertion that there is

no such thing as friendship. She has been let down by a so-called frien!, and this is how she forks about it.

PALLISTER

We realise that few things hurt more than disloyalty on the part of one we thought to be our friend, but can we say. because of that, friendship does not exist?

On the contrary, as we grow older, it sometimes seems that the only thing left of value in a world full of change and often suppointment) is friend- ship.

People who complain that there is no such thing as a disinterested filendship may remember the wise saying,

He that hath friends must show himself friendly."

A Precious Trust

Friendship, like otimer precious things, must be tended find cared for; it must have the sunshine of trust and con- fidence. It can be nipped in th: bud by the chilling frost of suspicion.

Many a life has been wrecked through brooding over an early blow. In time such broc ling will bot out all the real Roudness which can be seen around us if we look for 11. I would advise my young correspondent to put her dis- appontanent behind her.

As my first letter says, so truly, "We should forgive everything; there is so often an excuse."
