Spring FabricsLight, Colorful

Bengaline, Jersey, RayonFavored by M'Lady.

By GHERIE NICHOLASIn planning the spring wardrobe,

the logical thing "to do is to first ofall acquaint oneself with "what'snew" in fabrics.

One of the most interesting andstyle-significant fabrics is navy orblack bengaline for suits. There isa refinement and ladylikeness inthe new suits made of bengaline orfaille.

It is part of the current style pro-gram to enliven these dark suitswith high-color blouses or with frilly,frothy lingerie details.

For slack suits and separate cas-ual jackets great emphasis is placedon pastel corduroys. Ideal also forchildren's coats and cunning bolerosuits is the popular corduroyin refreshing spring colors. Forsports and campus wear, tomatored corduroy is a general favorite.

Jerseys are so versatile that itis difficult to keep track of the vari-ous types. Printed jerseys for theafternoon dress is destined for a tre-mendous vogue. You can get it indark colors or light. Dresses goingsouth at the immediate moment areStyled most attractively of whitejersey with gay flower print. Em-broidered jerseys vie with printedfor style supremacy. New, too, isa fine lace jersey for shirtwaistdresses.

Spring spun rayon prints favorsimple spaced motifs such as singleflowers, stars, crescents, singleleaves and so on, done often in penand ink outline technique. This isin direct contrast to evening printswhich tend to huge florals and mo-tifs in a veritable explosion of brightcolors. The "latest" for party frocksis white pique printed in strikingdesign and color.

The call for russet, tangerine andburnt orange colors is reflected Ina whole range of brown and whiteprints for daytime wear.

In cottons the influence of SouthAmerican coloring and design is re-sulting in bizarre effects that aremost startling and fascinating.

Color Contrast

Designers continue to make use ofstartling color contrast. Their new-est contribution? Contrast yokes.The unique treatment of the yokethat brightens the frock pictured isespecially interesting. The yoke inthis instance which may be in anycolor you happen to favor, developstotn a smart scarflike drane nt the

Lace AccessoriesAdd Festive Look

Boleros, Aprons, JerkinsEnliven Black Costume.

By CHERIE NICHOLASDesigners are using lace in un-

usual ways. Sometimes the lace,usually the white starched Venisetype, is fashioned into a full skirttopped with a blouse of dark crepeor black jersey, the latter made sim-ply so as to better display costumejewelry.

Then again, the order is reversed—white, strikingly patterned lace isused for the blouse or bodice top,of a bouffant black sheer or a grace-fully pleated crepe skirt. Theblouse of lace is styled in the newlong-torso manner, fitting as snugas a sweater. So pleasing is thislace interpretation that it is seenin afternoon fashions.

Novel lace technique is also ex-nroecad to eunnine acron fantasies

JESUS TEACHES FORGIVENESSAND GRATITUDE

LESSON TEXT—Luke 17:1-4, 11-19.GOLDEN TEXT—Be ye kind one to

another, tenderhearted, forgiving oneanother, even as God for Christ's sakehath forgiven you —Ephesians 1:32.

Did you ever hear of "vinegarsaints"? They are the Christian folkwho are "preserved" (as Paulprayed in I Thess. 5:23), but areapparently pickled instead of sweet-ened. Every housewife knows thatthings may be preserved with sugaror with vinegar.

God never intended it to be thatway. All through His Word there areadmonitions and encouragements togracious and considerate living. Ev-ery Christian is under orders to"grow in grace" as well as in theknowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ(II Pet. 3:18). This lesson stressestwo leading Christian graces.

I. Forgiveness—Not Always Easy,but Always Possible (vv. 1-4).

The Bible is ever realistic in itsapproach to life. God knows thaiChristians must live in just our kindof world; in fact, your kind of world,and makes provision for it.

Offenses cannot be avoided. Therewill always be occasions for stum-bling. No matter how closely wemay guard our children, they willface temptations. Let us preparethem to meet them with the powerof Christ, and let us be so preparedourselves.

The fact that offenses must comedoes not excuse the one who createsthe cause of stumbling. Someone isresponsible for every such occasionfor offense, and the woe of God ispronounced upon him.

What shall I do about the one whothus tempts me and others? Justgrieve over it and look the otherway? No indeed. "Rebuke him,"says God's Word. Let us do it! Ithe does not repent, there is no oc-casion for forgiveness. To do sowould only encourage him in his sin.

If he repents, or even says herepents, we are to forgive, not justonce, but over and over again (v.4). That's not easy for any of us,but It is possible if we, like the dis-ciples (see v. 5), ask God to "in-crease our faith," and use it asJesus directs in verse 6.

II. Gratitude—the Almost Forgot-ten Christian Grace (vv. 11-19).

Nine men wonderfully healed otthe dreadful disease of leprosy, andonly one said, "Thank you," to Je-sus, "and he was a Samaritan," anoutsider or stranger. One wonderswhether in our own day of professedenlightenment and culture the aver-age of those who express their grat-itude would even reach one-tenth.

"Gratitude is as scarce as friend-ship." Many there are who professto be Christians who never offerpraise to God for the provision oftheir daily food, let alone tor allother temporal and spiritual bless-ings. The kindness nt fri«.n<i« i.

Have you told your minister thatyou appreciate his sermons and hisministry in the community? Doesyour Sunday School teacher knowthat you have received help andblessing in the class? Does the edi-tor of this paper know that you en-joy and appreciate this column? Ifyou do, why not encourage him bycalling him on the telephone or writing him a note to tell him so?

Young people, have you ever saida real heart-felt "thank you" to yourfather or mother for all they havedone for you? Perhaps some oldersister or brother or school teacheror neighbor would be greatly heart-ened by such a word from you.

Someone may say, "I am grate-ful, but I am not the type thattalks about it." One wonders wheth-er Henry Van Dyke was not rightwhen he said, "A dumb love is ac-cepted only from the lower ani-mals." A dog will show his thank-fulness by wagging his tail, but aman has a tongue with which to saykind and tender words of apprecia-tion to both God and man.

Most important of all, let us bearin mind that God awaits our wordsof praise. Christ valued the wordsof gratitude of this man and missedthem from the nine others. WhenHe was in Simon's home (Luke 7:44-46), He gently rebuked His hostfor failing to show him the ordinarvcourtesies of the household.

Appreciate BeautyNever lose an opportunity of see-

ing anything beautiful—welcome itin every fair face, every fair sky,every fair flower and thank Him torit who is the fountain of all loveli-ness; and drink it simply and ear.nestly with all your eyes; it is acharmed draught, a cup of blessing—Kineslev.

THANKSGIVING IN FEBRUARY

On the eleventh of February, ninety-four years ago, in the little

town of Milan, Ohio, Thomas Alva Edison was born-and it is doubt-

ful whether there is another mortal man, living or dead, to whom the

entire world should be more thankful!

That's a strong statement to make, but we believe it's true. We be-

lieve too that the world in general and America in particular have been

much too hasty- much too willing to forget-perhaps much too busy

using his countless gifts—to pause and remember the donor of them all

Thomas A. Edison.

We can get some idea of what Edison has done by imagining whal.vould happen if we took away, just for today, all the things that Thom-

as Edison gave us.

At home, we would be without elecfric lights and the use of electricclocks, shavers, toasters, stoves, vacuum cleaners, washing machinesradios, refrigerators, irons, mixers, and the host of oth«r electrical app-liances which make for increased leisure, convenience, health and en-tertainment Not that Mr. Edison invented all these things, but he didmake the commercial generation and distribution of electric powerpossible.

Thomas Edison was probably the greatest humanitarium of moderntimes. He gave the world more than 1,150 inventions, each of whichrepresents another reason for us to be thankful that he was bom.

Then, picture ourselves in the world of business - without Edison m-entions! There would be no electricity for operating factories; tele*

phones might almost be useless. Edison also assisted Scholes with thefirst working model of the typewriter. He invented the mimeograph.Without Edison, even this newspaper could not go to press - for thepresses are operated by electricity.

And that's the way it would go - on and on - without Edison.
