Wear Clothes That Won't Be Noticed Build Your Wardrobe Around Simple Outfits — That's the Only Sound Procedure For a Woman With Limited Income It's sound procedure• for the woman with an unlimited clothes budget to build her wardrobe around simple dresses and classic suits and coats. For the woman whose budget is entirely limited, it's the ONLY sound procedure. Then she'll never cry: "I haven't got a thing to wear!" Unless •you can have several suits, it's a mistake to choose a highly styled little model of which you—not to mention your friends —will tire easily. If you can have only one coat it had better be a coat that will go over every dress in your wardrobe, advises Alicia Hart, beauty columnist, in giving timely tips on wardrobe planning at the approach of spring. Two Pairs of Shoes Having only two pairs of day shoes presents no problem at all if both are in black, brown or navy blue. However, having only two pairs of day shoes can pre- sent a real problem if one is rocker -soled and red; the other good with suits but not with dresses or vice versa. All of which is not to say that it's a good idea to wear clothes which won't be noticed. The sec- ret of chic lines lies in choosing simple, well-eut dresses and suits and then in knowinghow to doll them up with hats and accessories so that the finished ensembles will be distinguished. Catholic Bible h Modernized Southern Ontario's Subtropical Plants Dr. W. Sherwood Fox, pre- sident of the University of Western Ontario, spoke on the "Sub -Tragical Flora of South - Western Ontario" at a meet- ing of the Moulton College Alumnae Association in To- ronto recently.

FOUND INEXACT Dozens of expressions in the Douay version were found to be inexact translations of the ancient manuscripts and changes were made accordingly. Hundreds of quotations, which had become part of English-speaking Catholic tra- dition including even the words of the sign of the cross wero found to be so archaic as to convey little meaning, and these, too, wero Changed. Many of the alterations are extensive. The sign of the cross, with which every Roman Catholic begins and ends his prayers, has read until DOW ;. "In the name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost." The new version reads: "In the name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Floly Spirit." The word "ghost" no longer con- veyed the meaning intended the scholars decided. New Version of New Testa- ment is Shortly to Be Issued by Bishops of United States A new version of the New Testa- ment of the Catholic Bible will be issued at the end of May by, the Bishops of the U.' S. Product, of. five years of effort by thirty scholars who used ancient Latin and Greek manuscripts as well as the present 859 -year-old Douay version as a basis for their text, the new ver - aster We wait for Easter and the glad rebirth Of all things 'fair And clean and good and wholesome on the earth, Whensunshine warm to scatter Winter's dearth Is everywhere. We wait. for Easter and the glad release From lethargy Of Nature's children to breathe forth their peace And give our weary bodies quick increase Of energy. We wait for Easter and a world made free, The .stinging sword Of strain and suffering then shall broken be, And blinded spirits shall more clearly see The risen Lord. —Lileen McQuiggan. Bicycle Loads Now Regulated, Lent Is it a season to afflict the soul? Nay, but to yield with joy to God's control Of opportunity to make us whole. Is it not the time to fast and give and pray? Aye, surely, and in Christ's ap- pointed way Of loyal secrecy that shuns dis- play. Shuld not the will at all times thus be bent? - True to these ends a lifetime must be spent. Therefore praise God for prac- tice -time in Lent.

April's Costume Never a girl more quaintly dressed Than lovely April is— Poke bonnet lined, crab apple pink; Catkin -furred pelisse. i The silken fabric of her gown Draped over crinoline, Misty violet shot through With birch leaves' tender green. Her feet are shod in primly laced, Softest, loam -tan kid, And ah, the ruffles now disclosed, Now demurely hid, Of cherry -petaled pantalettes; The white starched petticoats Make 'music where she walks, as crisp As wind in fields of oats. And all the air is spiced with scent, When lovely April passes, Of satchets;of orris root Budding in marsh grasses.

Hot Cross Buns! One -a -Penny, two -a -penny, I -Tot. Cross Buns! If ye have ne 'daughters, give: them to your sons." So sang ,the baker's boy as he pushed his flat two -wheeled cart laden. with Easter confectiops through the .narrow streets oi' old London; and to most.people even yet Good Friday' would not be com- plete without -the Hot -Cross Buns to adorn the breakfast' table. MARKED WITH:• A OROSIS Many are the' stories that have been • passed down through the ages in connection with this bun. It Is said that the inhabitants of ancient Egypt and Greece offered.. sacred cakes to the Moon Goddess, marking •them -with a cross to in- dicate ,the 'four quarters of the • moon Then at a later date, the Saxons .ate.a similar bread,'which they called "bouns," or buns. These too, were narked with -a cross, in hohor of their goddess of light. GOOD -LUCK SYMBOL In a number of. European coun- tries the Hot Cross Bun is regard- ed as a good -luck synvbol,•and it is - believed that one should be kept until the following Good Friday to insure the best of fortune through- out the year. In one part of Eng- land it is still believed that Hot Cross Buns hung in the chimney corner on Good Friday will guar- antee good bread to the Housewife for the following 12 months. An- other tradition in connection with the Good Friday buns and bread is that if kept through the year a few crumbs soaked in water would work a.cure for any ailment. ROLLING HARD-BOILED EGGS As plentiful as the Hot Cross Buns at this season of the year are the gaily -colored eggs which adorn almost every shop window. These are a survival of the distri- bution of "pace" or "pasehe ege," zealously observed for generations by children in Scotland as well as. in the English counties of Lancs, Stafford and Warwick, where the dyed, hard-boiled eggs were rolled, tossed and finally eaten; for "hail - playing" on Easter Monday was universal.

One of the most beautiful of Blaster customs comes to us from Central Europe, where the Tyrol- ese observe Holy Saturday in a unique manner. On the evening of that day they traverse everyy flow- er -strewn valley singing hymns ac- companying themselves en guitars, and calling people from their homes to join 1n the procession. Wearing broad -brimmed hats ad- orned with spring blossoms, and with dancing ohildren about them and lighted pito torches adding to the effect, these musicians present a most picturesque appearance. Afterwards refreshing drinks are served and hard-boiled eggs that have been brightly colored are giv- en to the children.
