Mr. and Mrs. Alva Lee Stephens of Irvlngton opened their home last eve ning for a group of friends to hear Mrs. Mary Jtanford Kord discuss the status of women in the new civilization. With simplicity and in exquisite English Mrs. Kord traced the status of woman from Christ's time down to the present day, showing that all of the great and good leaders always put women on an equal ity with men, but that as soon as pos it I'M e they are relegated to thetr old po. sltlon of subservience. Mrs. Ford said that she thought the woman of today has advanced to a place wfiere she will never again be set aside,, but will con tinue to work for herself rather than for the men. Mrs. Ford told in a most interesting way some Interesting facts concerning Rahal and his teachings, and their effect, particularly on the ori enfal woman. An Informal discussion followed, participated in by Dr. C. II. Chajjman. Mrs. F. C. Kelsey, Mr. and Mis. Stephens. PERSONAL MENTION Prominent Lumberman Here. J. W.

FOR several minutes after Mr. Gar den Toad began his croaking, "Be kind! Be kind!" Chirpy and Mrs Chirpy Sparrow scolded on as before. "You can't have it," said Mrs. Chirpy, crossly. "I ound this worm." "I' will have it," retorted Chirpy. "I'm too hungry to hunt. Give it to me!'" "You can't!" "I will!" "It's min!" And Just then Chirpy heard Mr. Garden Toad. "Listen," he stopped quarreling long enough to say. "Don't I hear Mr. Garden Toad? He must have some thing important to eay, for he's talk ing more than usually loud. Listen!" "Be kind! Be kind! Be kind, kind!" croaked Mr. Garden Toad, plenty loud enough to be heard in the fron'. yard. Chirpy looked at Mrs. Chirpy out of the corner of his eye. Mrs. (Jhlrpy, without noticing what Chirpy was doing, dropped the worm She had been fiarhtinE- so hrH in bun and remarked kindly, "You take this worm. Chirpy. I don't care about worms, anyway. I'll go over to the next yard and get me some seed." "Indeed, I'll not take it," replied Chirpy. "It's your worm you got it yourself.'' "But you'rs so hungry," insated Mrs. Chirpy. "No, I'm not," laughed Chirpy good naturedly. "I Just said that! I had plenty for breakfast. I wanted that worm because you wanted It that's all!" "But I don't like to eat when you haven't anything," sajd Mrs. Chirpy, Just as another "Be kind" sounded from the garden. "Then lets divide," suggested Chirpy, -and afterward we can both go to the next yard and find seed to gether." "YeS. let's." M TUtr-m Okl.-..

"Then let's divide," suggested Chirpy. All this while Mr. Garden Toad had been croaking, "Be kind! Be kind! Be kind, kind!" as diligently as pos sible, but without a sign of an answer from anybody. But when he stopped for breath be noticed that there was no sound of quarreling in the front yard. "Oueas those sparrows have made up their fus8 without me," he remarked; "but, all the same, my idea's a good one that I know. And I mean to keep right on croaking. Maybe some, day I'll help somebody." 6o he croaked, "Be Wnd! Be kind! B kind, kind!" never guessing that he had already helped two aomeoedies. Tomorrow Yellow Puff Helps. THE' OREGON DAILY JOURNAL,.

Every year the inter national flower show sets the styles for the debutante's bouquet, and these styles are consequently reflected In the florists' display wlrrtlows. Not only the debutante's bouquet, but the bridal bouquet and the simple corsae for teas, dinners and afternoon occa sions. The bridal bouquet is getting light er every year. By this is meant lighter in weight. Heavy-headed white roses and large Easter lilies used to make a charming combination, but a cum bersome one. Now' the tendency is more toward the practical, as well as the beautiful. Llltes of the valley, orchids itnd lighter - weight roses are used. There is less heavy eatln, mors tulle, chiffon and flye lace used to tie the flowers and o hold the tiny sprays that fall from it. No wire at all is used on some bouquets, little If any on others. The most popular flower combination of all is white or ol.:is and liltes of the valley. Louis XV and the Pompadour have left a relic of their picturesque era in the perfectly round, old-fashioned bridal bouquet. This is used for coming-out affairs and formal occasions as well. The dainty shepherdess gown and the Watteau styles com bine charmingly with n,e style of bouquet, which is a startling depart in from the loosely arranged cor sages of a season or so ago. A gilded shepherdess' crook and one of these odd boutjuets is much af fected for bridesmaids' costumes, worn with a gow of Pompadour or Dresden silk. and pannier skirts. An edge of perforated paper finishes off the bouquet with long streamers of tulle. Large red roses form the cen-te- of one startling flower arrange ment; around this is an edge of yei low mignon rosea and violets, fixed In prim rows about the glowing cen ter. Then there are dainty little dance bouquets as big as the hand, of Sweetheart roses and forget-me-nots. This is one of the most charming color schemes of all. Silver or gold tissue bows add qaaintness. Small flowers, like the diminutive Ward or Sweetheart roses, violets, sweet peas and the 'cs ars favored ror me ibu bonquet. CHERRY SALADS Va'ny refreshing fruit salads. For simple salad mix stoned cherries with equal parts of diced celery, and few chopped nuts. Serve with mayonnaise in whlcr.' cherry Juice replaces vinegar. For another salad, mix chopped almondj and sliced cucumbers with cherries and serve on lettice leaf with French dressing. Pineapple, haselnuts and cherries make another delicious com bination. This salad should be served with mayonnaise whitened with whipped cream.

A good supply of mothballs should be on every shopping list, and these sprinkled about among the wool and fur. If there is the slightest suspicion as to the presence of moths in fur, the hair should be carefully examined, and IC necessary, combed with a fine-tooth comb. A heavy pillow slip with a good quantity of mothballs is a safe place for fur, and the slip should be knotted ac the end. If all wool and fur not In use are put in a trunk with mothballs and the trunk locked the goods will be safe as long as kept closed. Of course theie must be no moths or eggs put in with the balls. Wool and fur which are kept out for wear should be given a frequent sun bath, and the fur well brushed to be sure there are no moths in hiding. THE HOME MANICURE SET The wide part of the nail scissors is the part to use when cutting the nails. Even this is not so e'ood as filing. The points of the manicure scissors are meant to be for cuticle. A lot of un necessary manicure Implements are useless and Insanitary. A good pair of surgeon's scissors, a thin file, sever sl pieces of emery board, a polish, If you use one, and a good nail brush are enough. The latter is most important. Never cut the cuticle; push It back every day, rubbing the parts with cold cream to soften them if they are hard but never cut it. THE MODE'S SUGGESTION A great deal of hemstitching Is being used In joining materials and finishing edges. A novel sailor collar Is cut from sheer pleated material and finished with shawl revers. The old-fashioned flowered silks make charming frocks when trimmed with velvet ribbon. A narrow lace balayeuse, or under frill of lace, shows beneath some of the shortest skirts. Tailored frocks are sometimes so full and bouffant that they are no tailored frocks at all.

LA VIE DE BOHE5IE, an adapta tion from Henri Murger's book, opened at the T. & D. theatre to day, with Alice Brady, the young emo tional, actress, daughter of 'William A. Brady, who presents this film in as sociation with the World Film corpor ation. The story Is a visualization the boolc, which was put into operatic form under the name "L.a Boheme" by Puccini, it is laid in the Latin quarters of Paris, and concerns Itself with the life of Miml, a foundling, who Is taken from the convent where she haa been reared, to an Inn kept by M. Ducros. Miml la loved by Ru dolphe, and loves him, but there are other lovers and misunderstandings, and Rudolphe deserts her. She re mains loyal to him, even to the point, later, when she again comes into his life, of running away so as not to imperil his prospects. The last part of the story deals with the illness and death of Miml, who passes) sur rounded by loyal friends, with the realization that Rudolphe still loves ber. The plsy Is said to depict more ac,; curately than any other work the true mode of living and the sorrows and joys of the light-hearted Bohemians of Paris. La vie de Boheme is the first of the Brady-made films which will hereaft er be another feature of the T. & D. proa-rams. These films will Include Broadway successes with the original to JrWonimnfelkBS easts as well as photodramas of su perior merit. , Gypsy Singers at Strand.
