COURT DRESS

ALL set for the courts.

After being indoors all purse day there is nothing like a game of tennis to keep your limbs supple and to clear away the cobwebs.

Good for tennis time-la a· frock that is easy to make and to launder.

The dress shown here is good because a sports or summer frock needs to have a free and easy atting. There's amplo play in the skirt, you'll notice,

Bodice is yoked back and front, and If you want a spot of colour, a bow.can be tucked under the collar. Those purse pockets do away with the necessity of carrying a handbag small change and hankie in one, compact in the other.

WITH CARE

"BETTER put

50mc eggs in! pickle," everyone said, "you may be very glad of them next winter."

My egg-man let me have some large brown new-tald ones, und I fald them gently in pickle, and as I did so I thought of the way in which eggs have become the univer ral symbol of things which must be gently handled.

As I Inid the edge to edge, I thought of how different the world would be if we handled each other as carefully as

as we handle eggs.

After all, what's a broken egg? A few zoppers wasted, a rather nasty mess

to mop up, that's all.

Why not try to think of humun! feelings as if they were new-laid eggs, they are just as fragile, und junt as easily hurt. Let's handle them as carefully and sensitively........... it's one way of helping to put the! world straight.

Pinafores are going to be this summer's most popular and practical fashion. They have four strong. points in their favour: (a) They are becoming,, always young-looking; (b) they are economical: you can often make

one from last year's dress which has worn out at the neck" or

sleeve; (e) they are coul and com- fortable; and (4) they are as adapt able as chameleons. The four ideas here-all built up on one original

ustural linen pinafore—give you an idea how far they will streich.

add a candy-striped silk blouse with long bishop sleeves banded at the wrist. The waist is Alted, neck has a neat fat. collar opening at the back-wear it under the pinafore and you have a charm ing childish COUNTRY OUTFIT.

Take your pinnfore and blouse'as before, add a wide sash and turban made in the same striped silk (four yards will make your blouse, ansh and turban), Make the turban by gathering a sirip of all into a knot rut tho on top of your head, leaving ends free to cress and tie in a bow at the back.. Wear the blouse over your pinafore, wind the sash round twice, and tie it in a big bow in front, and you have a smart AFTER- NOON SUIT.

Curing Pimples

By Claud North Chrisman, M.D.

ACNE VULGARIS is the

scientific name for a condition that causes more mental distress to girls and boys between the ages of 15 and 20 than any other diseases. Many a social life is ruined by the presence on the face and neck of blackheads and pimples. It is due to excessive activity of the sebaceous glands, particular-
