TT'S smart to be windswept. Hither
^ and thither the winds of fashion do
Mow until most everything in the
spring and summer mode is being
made to express a very poetry of mo-
tion.
The amusing part about the breezes
which waft through fashioniand is
that they are so weii trained, biowing
ever forward during the daytime
hours whiie at night they compieteiy
reverse the order of things. Of course,
it is aii due to the artfui manipuiation
of pieats and Hares and various other
devices which designers position at the
front of the coat or dress or hat to
be worn during the day untii you look
as if the wind were carrying you for-
ward, whiie smartest evenimg fashions
take on airpiane draperies at the back
or fan-spreading trains or simiiar de-
tails which make it seem as if miiady
were winging her way in the very face
Of the winds.
Even fabrics themselves are yield-
ing to the touch of fashion's elusive
breezes. There are the new "windswept
prints" for Instance, which are cer-
tainty a step forward in this current
vogue. These perfectiy fascinating
prints are deveioped in Bower pattern-
lngs, but with a distinct difference be-
tween the new florals and those of
previous seasons. In the modern
"windswept" versions dowers are
shown bending over on siender staiks
as if swayed by gentie breezes.
You'll love these swagger windswept
prints. In the new chulla construction
they are as praeticai as they are good-
looking. And do they wear well I
There's scarcely any "wear out" to
them. Neither will the delicate coior
fade or run In washing and they
Iron smooth and perfect just like
magic. Another grand thing about
crepes of this type is that they
are such a Joy to work with. The
texture is so firm and dependable
—never pulis out at the seams
and stays "put," which makes It
easy for the home-sewing woman
to handie.
The three adorabie dresses pictured
are made of the new windswept prints.
Those dainty white accents at neck-
line and sleeves—well now, we ask
you. aren't the frothy, filmy neckwear
fashions simply thriillng this season?
The print to the right is that glori-
ously coiorfui a mere word picture
cannot do it justice, and when one
stops to think that this print will wash
like new, what more is there to be
desired in the way of a perfect print?
The fiimy white organdie roil-edged
petal coilar and cuffs add the climax-
ing touch. The self-fabric stitched beit
drawn through a gay colored ring is
wortli noting.
There is a modest beauty about the
spring posies with their delicate ten-
drils so gracefuliy windswept in the
print to the left which wtli carry espe-
cial appeal to the woman of discrimi-
nating taste. In any of its color com-
binations this print is charming, but
in navy with a strain of lighter blue
running throughout, together with Hut-
tery white spring posies spiotched with
fresh light green, it is irresistible.
The ankle-length frock with contrast-
ing fitted jacket admirably solves the
problem of what to wear for semi-for-
mal occasions. Worn with Its jacket of
solid color you have the feeling of
being correctly attired most any hour
of the day. Remove the jacket and
the dress goes just format enough to
tune in to most any afternoon occa-
sion. It has quaint drop shoulders and
cunning wee puff sleeves. The piquant
iittie velvet tie about the throat is
reminiscent of the "gay nineties." The
windswept print which fashions it car-
ries a very animated patterning.
DAYTIME EFFECTS
ON EVENING DRESS
A new evening frock which August-
abernard makes of her blackish green
crepe marocain has a daytime neck
line and short sleeves that are gathered
into the shoulder seam at the edges.
The front of the bodice is draped Into
a fnli-length panel, caught under a
rhlnestone buckie at the right side
front of the waistiine.
Lelong fashions the skirt and jacket
of this, an evening suit, of biack woo],
and the tatter has revers of sable and
sleeves that are unusualiy wide be-
tween the deep-fitted cuffs and the el-
bows. The skirt is a simple ankie-
length mermaid skirt. The Mouse of
this suit Is made of flowered
pinks and greens on a black
ground.

Lesson for May 6
JESUS ACCLAtMED AS K1NQ
LESSON TEXT—Matthew !l:t-44.
GOf^DEN TEXT—Wherefore God al*
so hath hlghfy exalted him, and given
him a name which is above every
name.—Phil. 2:9.

The picture presented in this chap-
ter is a very dark one. The common
designation "Triumphal Entry" is most
unfortunate, for it was only such in
appearance. Hack of the cry "Ho-
sanna" was being formed the awful
cry "Crucify Him." It may be pos-
sible that the awful word "Crucify"
was uttered by some of the same per-
sons who cried "Hosanna."
). The Preparation (vv. 1-0).
1. The sending of the disclpies for
the ass (vv. 1-8). Jesus toid them
just where to go to find it and how to
answer the Inquiry of the one who
owned it. This shows how perfectly
Jesus knows our ways.
2. The fulfillment of prophecy (vv.
4, 5). Some ftve hundred years before,
Zecharlah made this prediction (Zech.
0:9). Christ's coming in this way was
In exact fuifltlment of this prediction.
This Is highiy Instructive to those who
would understand as yet unfulfilled
prophecies. The prediction of Zecha-
rtah 14:3-11 will be just as literally
fulHtled as that of Zechariah 3:0.
3. The obedience of the disciples
(v. 6). The request may have seemed
unreasonable, but they obeyed.
H. The Entrance of the King (vv.
7-11).
I. The discipies put their garments
upon the ass and set the Lord there-
upon (v. 7). This act showed their
recognition of him as their king (II
Kings 9:13).
2. The action of the multitude (vv.
8, 9). Some spread their garments in
the way; others who had no garments
to spare cut down branches and did
the same with them.
3. The city awakened (vv. 10. 11).
It was a stirring time in Jerusalem,
but a more stirring time awaits that
city. This wili take place when the
Lord returns to the earth In power.
til. The King Rejected (vv. 12-16).
The immediate occasion of this re-
jection was the cieansing of the tem-
ple. A similar cieansing had been
made some two years before (John
2:13-17), but the worldlings had gona
back to their old trade. Exchange
was not in Itself wrong, but doing it
for gain was wrong.
IV. The Nation Rejected by the
King (vv. 17-10).
Having shown their unwillingness to
receive Christ as their king when oiii-
ciaily presented to them, the king now
turns from them and makes known
their awfui condition in parabies.
1. The barret) fig tree cursed (vv.
17 --). it was on the morning after
his oiilcial presentation as he was re-
turning from Jerusalem that Jesus
observed the unfruitful Og tree. He-
cause of hunger he sought for ilgs and
finding none, he caused to fail upon
the tree a withering curse. The bar-
ren fig tree is a type of Israei. With
Its leaves it gave a show of iife, but
being destitute of fruit it had no right
to cumber the ground. * The nation
thus stood as a mountain in the way
of the gospe). Jesus encouraged the
disclpies by showing that if they had
faith even this great mountain couid
not stand In tileir way.
2. The parabte of the two sons (vv.
28-32). Hoth sons are told by the
father to work In his vineyard. The
one, tike the profligate pubtlcan, re-
fused outright to obey but afterwards
repented and went; the other pre-
tended a willingness to obey but in
reality did not. The first one repre-
sents the publicans and hariots; the
second, the proud and seif'-rlghteous
Pharisees, the priests, and eiders.
Jesus declared the publicans and har-
lots would go Into the kingdom before
them.
3. The parahto of the housohoider
(vv. 33-40).
a. The householder. Tills was God
himself.
b. The vineyard. This means Israei
(Isa. 5:1-7; Jer. 2:21; t's. 80:0).
c. The husbandmen. These were
the spiritual guides, the rulers and
teachers of Israel.
d. The servants sent for the fruit
of the vineyard. These wore the vari-
ous prophets whom (!o<) sent.
e. The son sent by the householder.
This was the Lord Jesus Christ. They
knew him to be the son, hut they did
not show him reverence. They cast
him out of the vineyard and siew him.
NO PROOF THAT
AMERICANS ARE
"GOING INDIAN"
Vatue of Sitenca
The devotional value of silence Is
recognized in a retreat, which may be
described as a period of slience spent
with God. broken only bv vocal medi-
faflon and prayer preparing for and
arising out of the silence.
"Let us serve (hot in the sunshine
while bo makes the sun shine. We
shall then serve hitn a!) the botft* in
the dark When he sends the darkuess.
The darkness is sure to come.**
Harvard's division of anthropology
ft) Its recent researches seams to
have disposed of the theory that
used to be stoutly maintained, that
is, that the American type of man
is reverting to that of the Indian.
We have always been skepticat of
the hypothesis that the mingied
white race of North America wouid
npproach nearer and nearer In re-
semblance to the Indian simply he-
cause it intiubits the same territory
and is subject to the same infiuenees
of climate. The Indian is tait (though
not in some tribes), rangy, rawboned
and it) color ruddy brown. En-
thusiastic theorists profess to see
the same characteristics appearing
In Americans whose families have
been on fhis side the ocean two or
three hundred years. They even add
taciturnity, which is regarded as an
Indian trait.
Hut the whites of America have
hrod and prospered in an environ-
ment entirely at variance with that
t of the Indian, with the exception of
l the ctltuate. They are now targely
sedentary, If we except the farmer,
and are not hunters and waikors.
! They fetid to grow shorter In stature
[ it) cities, though by no means
stunted.
The Indians arc red brown In color
because their primitives, ages ago In
Asia, were of that complexion. There
can be no doubt that the aboriginal
races of this continent crossed to It
front the cradie of humanity first In-
habited of the great bodies of land,
by means of the chain of islands
spanning Hering sea and Inclosing It
on the south. Some of the descend-
ants of these iirst settlers retain aii
of the features of present nomadic
tribes in northeastern Asia. Others
have been modiiied in form and
physiognomy by the life they have
ted and probably by the foods that
have been their daily sustenance We
scarcely know what ten or twenty
centuries of maize and venison
wouid accomplish, but It must be
something that would he visible.—F.

Democrat.
