army, with some members wearing the costumes of the Colonial wars, is shown during colorful ceremony at Heidelberg, Germany, which marked the de-activation of the 7th army nnder Lt. Gen. Geoffrey Keyes. Dinner Mrs. Hety Brown, who in business life is Betty Stubbs.

of "Stubbs, Montgomery, Inc." an all-woman organization, was the guest speaker before the members and guests of the McHenry County Business and Professional Woman's Club at a dinner meeting held in the Baptist Church on Monday evening. Mrs. Brown, a stylist urged her lis teners to distinguish between fad an! fashion. A fad has a short life, fashion or style to remain starts in a cycle. It Increases in volume until it reaches a peak.

There it re mains as long as women adopt the style. Then Is the time for every women to forget to be conservative and have the fun of wearing what all fashion stylists have decreed as cor rect. This style holds good for both hats and clothes. Hats have turned to flowers this season, a decided feminine touch, which we find (n dresses, suits and coats, and this feminine touch will be found to hold over for another season or longer. Our clothes should be appropriate to our life or our job.

An office lob requires a more tailored attire, if we are to live In them all day or work in them in a large City. In smaller towns, a more frijly outfit can be worn and be correct. If we are only a housewife, choose an attractive house dress. For gardening, the slacks and shirt are comfortable. Always feel right In the clothes your are wearing, and select your clothes with care as to basic features.

A woman can wear any color, s'tates Mrs. Brown. Your make-up is your helpmate, and proper rouge and lip stick turns the trick. Along with more feminine clothes 'and softer lines, the skirts are to be a trifle longer, much. The shoulder line is still broad.

Frappe cocoa will be a popular brown shade for Fall, along with brown rum, a red brown, and the very dark, town brown. The soft brown and black will be combined. A new wine, cherry bounce, a lively wine, will be very good and women who have liked wine should adopt it this Fall. There will also be lovely greens In a variety of shades. Always remember, "It is becoming" to me.

Be clothes conscious, but uot conscious of your clothes. Mrs. Brown answered many questions from the floor. She was full of her subject and the group were happy to have had the opportunity of hearing her. Miss Gladys Laughlin chairman of the meeting introduced the speaker.

Mrs. Mary Endres, presided, and welcomed the guests who were from Harvard. McHenry, and Woodstock. Mrs. Endres introduced Miss Florence Bcklund of Joliet, chairman of District 2, who spoke briefly as did also Mloa Jane Aker, president of the Harvard club, who was also introduced by Mrs.

Endres. The dinner was served by the Baptist ladies and was very delicious. Spring blossoms adorned the tables. The speaker and the place of meeting for May 20th will be announced later. HOSPITAL NOTES.

Measles Is a Serious Disease The state health department today cautioned mothers to regard measles as a serious disease for children, and the warning was reiterated by representatives of the Elgin city health department.

Dr. Roland R. Cross, state health director, said the number of cases in Illinois has exceeded 17,800 so far thig year. "There has been no doctrine more fruitful of tragedy than that of the ancient idea of letting children have measles early to get it over with," he said. Doctor Cross advised isolation of children in epidemic areas and keeping youngsters under six years of age away from older school children.

The danger of measles, he added, lies in the developing of pneumonia, latent tuberculosis and diseases of the eyes, ears, kidneys and lungs. There has been considerable measles contagion in Klgin this ycarj and at the present time there are AO cases on the department's words. Thus far during April as many more cases have been released from quarantine. The cases reported here are "the real article" so far as measles are Oticernbd and are not the so-called "German measles" or mild type. I Parents should consult their family physician immediately, spokesmen for the department said, as soon as any' evidence of measles develops.
