Three Things Make a Man -His Decision, )rESDevelophnhsent and His Direction. "Stand up; I myself also ama pian!" -Acts, x., 26. The world says "hurrah" when a man asserts his manhood. When, form, tradition, wealth or power are bidden to sit down because a man has taken the floor! Peter is a sailor; Cornelius a soldier; Cornelius has been taught to obey; to retreat before another's will; Peter has learned, to be free. He will not accept homage from any man; he. is ., independent. "Don't cringe' before me, Cornelius; don't be subservient; stand up, I also am a` man." What makes man? Three things -his deeisien,`his development and his direction. Peter was fishing. His Master said to him •e"Come after me and I will make you ahfisher o2 men." I will give you a better job. Faith is of more importance than fish. You can't' capture life by drifting or by sitting in the grand stand and watch- ing the wrestlers in the arena.

The belt being such an important factor, then, it is not surprising to find` many novelties in that line. One 'of the latest is a belt •which starts out by being wide in front, but finally becomes divided into two narrow strips at the sides and back. The upper halves,,,, fasten at the back. and the lower hal- ves are knotted loosely and hang down. the back. Exceedingly attractive, also, are the pockets which give added charm to these dresses. Pointed, square, draped, gathered or plain, they appear in every conceivable form. For practical wear, the young girl wears dresses of the popular wools, such as serge, garbardine, velours, broadcloth, checks and plaids. There is little trimming on these frocks; per- haps a touch of bead or wool embroid- ery, a contrasting collar, soutache braid, or flat braid .applied in rows. The large assortment of fashionable colors, including burgundy, plum, taupe, brown and green has not ousted navy blue, which is still a favorite. For her social activities,..sweet six- teen may have her choice of soft chif- fon `velvet, velveteen, taffeta, satin, charmeuse, silk poplin or Georgette crepe, depending on the occasion for which her dress is intended. For dance frocks; tulle, -silk net, chiffon and Georgette are particularly girlish, while for a very elaborate dress "no- thing is more charming than the silver tissue cloths. Her slippers are of satin, to match the color of her dress, or else of silver or gold tissue. Pale • or bright pink, blue, maize, apricot and white are the colors speci- ally adapted to the youthful evening dress. Some delightful frocks are composed of layers; of tulle in differ- ent harmonizing colors placed one above tho other, and the merging of those colors produces a wonderfully artistic effect. - If the selection of her evening frock gives a girl many thrills of pleasure - and every one knows it does -she also derives a great deal of enjoyment from her sports clothes. Sports clothes, to -day, are wholly charming. Such bright, gay colors as are used for then can only reflect the spirit of joy and exuberance which they embody. The enjoyment of sports is really doubled by the'lovely clothes:that are worn for them. The skirts of sports dresses -and suits are worn very short, and the models are either plain or pleated. With- bright -colored skirts are worn slip-on middys of wool ,or silk jersey in a, contrasting color, blip -length coats of angora and fancy wools' are; also frequently seen. The accepted trimming for winter •sports suits is either fur or leather. Scotch plaids and checks in bright colors -are very much in evidence.
