unto but Miss A. sic Ford, S. SOCIETY ALTHOUGH the leading couturiers in the fashion centres have often firmly decreed that the wasp like waist would return, women, flaunting the idea with independence befitting the age, have clung faithfully to the more hygienic methods of attire that have appealed to one's comfort and common sense during the past few years However, since the advent of winter and the clamoring for street cars in the early mornings, one sometimes feels, amid the crush of eager passengers that not only one's waist-line, one's entire figure would change due to the press of the public against one another in the business hours. Pity the poor little sardine In its tightly sealed can! Truly It might have been guilty of A social offence when one beholds its squashed condition on lifting the lid of its hiding place; but It is comfortable in comparison with those In the role of the early bird these days and probably more symmetrical in its contour than one and sundry who emerge from their crowded corner In the trams morning after morning. Strange It would be, would it not, if we suddenly found ourselves with flattened physique, bulging on the sides like our aforesald little fish: no doubt, however, the waistline would have achleved the ambition of the arbiters of fashion despite our own discomfort or chagrin at the loss of what we might rightly or wrongly have termed our beauty advantages.

Are we threatened with a changed body so to speak or will she present struggle for a place of comfort or a point of vantage mere1v develop our pugilistic tendencies and perhaps disturb the peace of an otherwise calm winter morning? Who knows! We are so largely creatures of circumstances, so easily influenced by ntmosphere, that should these conditions prevail for long, one might wonder what the influence of all struggle would have on the sueceding generation. WIll their struggle for supremacy developed beyond that of their forefathers, and AR a result will many of them be leaders. in whatever path fate happons to thrust them? On the other hand will the next generation be narrow -chested and disproportionate of figure? Perhaps will merely find themselves with a rigid of endurance and able to persevere sense in attaining their erstwhile coveted goal. After all these questions are not of the utmost moment nor are the heads of civic and electrical companies being deprived of their beauty sleep as a result of over attention to this department of publie weal. Most of us, I fear, are living too much in the present to devote all our mental energies to worrles of future Canadians and 90 we can pray the Fates for a relenting mood of the weather man so that we may gain an opportunity through healthful exercise to drink In the pure ozone of our western country and preface the a day's doinge with A vigorous walk 'as stimulant to both brain and body and thus rossibly avoid the danger of change in face, form or figure to which crowded trams may at the moment be subjecting us.

FAIRY LIKE TENDENCIES VISIBLE IN NEWEST DANCE FROCKS If, as a little girl, you admired festive frock worn by the Christmas tree fairy, you will find that one your dreams at least can come true, for this very same silver spangly material 19 used to make dance frocks this year, and I don't believe that it is very expensive. The one I have in mind has a gathered panel swinging at the back edged deeply with luxurious brown fur, but dolly thought her silver frock pretty enough without the fur, and thought so, too. The cloak you were supposed to wear with It was honey -colored silk velvet lined with ermine, the velvet side being decor ated with wheels composed of er- m.ne talls, and It was reversible, as all the cloaks are this season.

THE UNRULY SHINGLE SUBDUED BY EFFECTIVE HEAD DRESS It is during the hours of slumber that shingled tresses become disarranged, and even the cleverest of night-caps--today they are called boudoir caps--will not keep them in order. A glance in the mirror when early morning tea arrives, reveals the havoc that has been wrought and it is with a feeling akin to terror breakfast 19 contemplated. Appreciating this fact, fashion has launched pretty cape for morning wear; they are most attractice and have a salutary effect on unruly hair Some been Inspired by the nun's headgear, with a plain white lawn across the forehead.

Ogler Woman's Outlook on Life Broadens With the Times Narrow Horizon No Longer A Part of the Feminine Make- Up Have women blue Some of us have and some have not, and among blue eyes there are degrees of blueness; 80 some of us a sense of proportion altogether, The rest of us have it In varying degrees. Blue eyes become bluer when they are out in the open, looking at the horizon. Eyes that are hardly blue all borrow blueness from the sea and sky and flowers: so, too, a sense proportion is gained by looking at wide spaces. It 18 only very recently that we women have been able to look at spaces. Men have been looking at them through all the ages.

It is generation ago that a pair o1 lace curtains veiled the horizon from us. Some time ago a young husband was reading out to his wife an acin the paper of 8 terrible earthquake. He glanced up und saw her staring straight in front of her with a troubled expression. He was touched to see how moved she the suffering of others. He Anished reading and put down the paper.

curtains want washing." she said, still gazing at them Intently. Well, we have got beyond that nowadays! A sense of proportion 13 a very near relation to a sense of humor. If we have once learned to laugh at things, or, rather, if we were born laughing at things (for laughter is one of the few things that cannot be learnt), we shall always get AL glimpse of the wood as 11 whole--no matter how big one or two of the trees may be. And the gift of laughter has not been denied to women. The Example of Dress If, above all, we have a sense of humor strong enough to laugh at ourselves we shall see things in proportion.

The mere fact that for the last few years women's dress has tended to become rather standardized shows that, even in the realm of clothes. where women are supposedly most lacking in 8 sense of proportion. is, a sense of the fltness or proportion of things--is creeping in. A few years ago, if small hats worn one season, you could be sure that large ones would be a necessity for the following season. If skirts were tight in the spring they would he several yards in circumference in the autumn.

But now certain fashtons have gone for ever- -elaborate colffures, heavily trimmed full skirts of the crinoline type, and never again will women be the unpald road- sweepers they were In the days of long skirts. Now that most women work in one way or another the reI quirements of modern life have made DIET SLOGAN FOR MODERNS Nature Rebels at Present Tendency to Crowd Too Many Meals Into the Day these meals within the 24 hours. Nature's Dinner- -Gong Let us praise Sir James CrichtonBrowne for his sano and sensible remarks about food -faddists. There is no subject on which more nonsense is talked than food, said the good old physician. All who have been bothered by people advising them to eat this and avoid that will heartily thank him for these few wise remarks.

Granted that some individuals are unable to tackle certain foods, too much faddism la bad for the system, and may even end in gastric debility, The digestive apparatus is there to be used, and unless it is given something to work on it will refuse to function. Again, all food consists of fats, proteids, carbohydrates, and so on; 50 it is mere foolishness to make 80 many faddy distinctions between different substances. Where most people make the big mistake is not in what they eat, but in how they eat. It is very seldom that a sufficient interval is allowed to elapse between meals. Some people think that the world will come to an end unless they have three or four good meals at short intervals.

Consequently the digestive is never given rest. It bag no sooner tackled 9 o'clock breaktast than it is called upon to cope with 1 o'clock lunch. Then come tea, a substantial dinner, and perhaps a late supper. No willing and hardworking digestion should be expected to dispose of all Ars.D.C. Coleman, Girls' League Charming Cabaret and Supper Dance Held Friday Evening Gay Function The reward of effort and the worth of charity's appeal was strongly evidence at the Royal Alexandra Hotel, Friday evening, when society turned out en masse in response to the invitation of the members of the Girls' League Winnipeg, who presented their initial entertainment the form of supper dance and cabaret to the Winnipeg public, and which resulted in overwhelming sue- cess.

The opening number of the cabaret, in which Miss Geraldine Wood and Miss Martha Anderson appeared as "Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy," was true to type in Ita most minute detail. Their dance evoked much interest and called for an encore. The piece de resistance of the evening. however, Was the "Katrinka" chorus, in which 12 society maidens. arrayed in all the brilhant coloring of Russian peasants, enacted their part with finish and precision that called forth the highest praise from the audience.

Those who participated in this part of the evening's entertainment were: The Misses Dorothy Alexander, aldine Wood, Martha Anderson, Sier: jorle Glassco, Helen Blackwood. France Douglas, Joyce Blackwood, Margaret Windatt, Geraldine Taylor, Betty Gage, Kathryn Mackenzie, Margaret Scott. An added feature of the evening WAS the solo dance given by little Miss Fleurette Craig, whose daintiness and naivete were altogether pleasing. The main dining-room of the hotel and the cafe were taxed to their utmost capacity, such response on the part of the public meaning the establishment of a canteen for the outdoor patients at the Winnipeg General Hospital. which the members the league have contributed to this Institution.

Wiltshire, C. Parker. It is 110 wonder that it occasionally strikes, and that people have to be treated for all the discomforting disorders arising from overworked liver and overloaded stomach! Most people are 80 bound by vention that they think it incum. bent on them to sit down to a meal, whether they want it or not, just because a gong has been struck. One's digestion is worth more to one than a junkful of gongs! The worst of it is that people will not let you alone if you decline a meal.

"Don't want your dinner (or lunch)!" they cru In alarm. "Why, whatever's the matter?" And they want to ring up the tor and tell him that you hnve no appetite and must be sickening for something, and what is to be done? In point of fact, most people would be better for missing an occasional meal. Nature has the best dinnergong; and when you are ready for another meal the same will be nified in the usual manner. I do not advocate the so-called "starvation cure" except for very grave cases of stomach trouble: and even then it ought to be under. taken only on the advice of a doctor, But by allowing decent intervals to elapse between one repast and another, and by refusing to be bullied into taking food when you do not desire it, you mny defy the food cranks and ent what you like.

And remember that it isn't "greedy" to take an intelligent interest in your dinner and to prefer flavorsome and attractive viands. To ent what you enjoy is to ensure its proper digestion. Major C. G. Lloyd.

FROCKS NOT WHOLLY IN ACCORD WITH HILARITY IN MODERN DANCING The new "whispering" evening frocks seem to have been designed to hush over any nolsv Charleston stamping, for although the dance teachers now shake their heads at any form of kicking and stamping there are always one or two exuberant couples to be encountered in most ballrooms. The slightest movement of these frocks sets all the seintillating trimmings murmuring like receding waves on a shingly beach. One of these frocks was of midnight-blue net with a hin tunte of blue gipsy coins and a large spangled net rosette placed behind the left shoulder-blade. Another model of hyacinth-blue chiffon had the skirt composed entirely of scallops of blue-green sequins with a -eye stone in the centre of each.
