TWO COLOR GLOVES ARE NOW THE STYLE IN PARIS Gloves that are black underneath and white on top are another proof that fashion this year is being prac- tical and at the same time interesting, And this double scheme of things for gloves applies in any number of col- ors, Navy blue and beige is a popular combination, and so is deep wine red and a golden "tone, the color of hot buttered toast, This new glove is the greatest sav- ing on the dry cleaning bill and per- mits the possession of several pairs because each one lasts longer when it is not worn constantly. They come in two tones of the same color as well as contrastin~ colors, and for those who do nct particularly care for the gauntlet glove with certain costumes, there is a dainty leather wrist strap of twisted thongs that draws the glove neatly. to the arm and prevents any wrinkling up a close-fitting sleeve. These may be purchased separately and in still a third shade of the glove or a third contrasting but harmoniz- ing color. - Another glove for long-sleeved frocks has a wide turn-back cuff that "copy cats" the design on the purse. This may be in a simple monogram only, or it may show various intricate ideas of stitching, beauvais embroid- ery, or geometric insets of patent leather using different colors.

THE TUXIS COLUMN TUXIS BOYS TRAIL RANGERS ® A tory The Saint John Telegraph-Journal carried the following story on its sporting page the day after the Bos- ton Marathan, famous distance race, was run: The most amazing sport feature of the week thus far, in Maritime circles is the herculean strength?sapping feat of Allison Burley in the Boston Marathon. Burley was not figured in the advance dope at all. Even his greatest admirers, officials and youngsters connected with Tuxis work in this city, had no idea the West St. John lad would ever get near the finish mark, particularly in the face of such obstacles as inex- perience, sweltering Boston weather and class. The youngster's feat will long be remembered. He is, perhaps, the youngest ever to enter the in- ternationally famous run. To Bur- ley it was only a fulfilment of his Tuxis teachings. To participate in a '| marathon was just part of the physi- cal side of Tuxis. Young Burley is a lad of clean liv- ing--has never indulged in abuse of mind and body, He joined the King Birds group of Ludlow Baptist Church last year and has been a staunch Tuxis member ever since. From the scriptures Tuxis derives its principles, Luke 2:52 supplies the passage, "And Jesus increased in Wisdom and Stature and Favor with God and man" The four-square Tuxis idea is thus imparted. Tuxis and Trail Ranger teachings bring up the boy intellectually, physically re- ligiously and socially fit, The telegraphic congratulations from St. John, when it was known Burley had crossed the finish line for Tuxis and his home in town meant much in the way of alleviation of the lad's aches and hurts suffered in the tortuous passage from Hopkin- ton to Boston. Signed by R. H. Parsons, president of the Boys' Work Board of St. John, the wire read: "Boys of the King Birds and the St. John Tuxis and Trail Ranger groups say, 'well done! You have honored us and we are proud of you." Burley certainly lived up to the Tuxis motto "In Quest of the Best" He was not conceded a chance to get very far. Carey was the man to whom St. John depended. But his youthful colleague carried on when the older man collapsed. What is more fitting than that this 16 year old youth should carry Tuxis colors through such a conquest as the 1931 Boston Marathon. Especially when it is remembered that the first mara- thaner was Phidippides, who on reaching his goal with the message dropped dead, and that part of the Tuxis ceremonial initiation bears up- on the story of the immortal Phidip- pides, The great run in 490 B.C. was only 22 miles in length but was raced in full armour. And as the immortal hero sank, overcome with exertion, at the. feet of the archons or chief magistrates, who had anxiously await- ed in Athens the word of victory at Marathon, he gasped out his message and expired. His words, "Rejoice, we win," were immortalized. It was the greatest news of the centuries. And Tuxis took the figure of Phid- ippides as its emblem for the physi- cal side of the bovs' training program The letters T-U-X-I-S have a sincere meaning in themselves. For Tuxis stands for all that is upright in the boy. The letters in Tuxis transala- tion represent: " You and I, training for service for Christ as the centre, and no one else between." With such a background young Byrley waged his fight to reach that finish line for Tuxis and Saint John C.G.I.T. NEWS (Continued from page 5) The sun was sinking when we de- cided to return. Dew had fallen and our shoes were quite wet. But when we had gone back down the hill again and were standing by the fence, an- other call, not very loud attracted our attention. We did think there were partridges but we hadn't hoped to sce one... And we were disappointed. After following the sound which we heard a number of times, we were no closer to it than before. It was getting quite late by this time so we cut through the bushes in order to reach the road and almost stepped on some of the most beauti- ful violets, large blue ones. We couldn't possibly resist them and while we were picking them we heard a new songster! We heard "Old Sam Peabody"! Then silence so we walk- ed on but again it came. And we couldn't see a thing that looked like a bird. Then we heard it two or three times. "Old Sam Peabody!" "Old Sam Peabody!" We must find out what the name of that bird is. So we raced back to camp--at least where the fire was and asked Mrs, Tait. We did our best at imitating and she recognized the song as that tf the White-Throated Sparrow. Everyone had congregated by this | time and after a short business mect- ing we had a discussion on "At any time is it right to tell lies" and also "Its it right to engage in War?" We couldn't find a satisfactory answer $0 two or three members are looking up material to "explain the problem at our next meeting. 9.30 p.m. and we were still sitting around. We sang a few songs and then "TAPS," and finally drove home through a fog that threatened to put us in the ditch. But "All's well that ends well." Hospitality Greenwood made a happy setting; the Excelsior group good hostesses and the Four Square group apprecia- tive guests, Dinner was cooked over small fires--mighty good it was, too, though of course, the usual quoto of overdone bacon made its appearance. Then came a walk along the mill stream through the woods. At the call of the whistle back we trooped to the flats for baseball. The first innings saw us away to a good start. But, alas, as the game progressed, one member of the team functioned with less and less enthusiasm. Almost constant "doctoring" was of no avail. And at last, at the end of the fifth innings now coatless and with bits of its anatomy flying in all directions collapsed--our pood ball! During the drive home weary maid- ens were lulled (?) to repose by the merry medley. of frying pans, eyg- lifters, cups, plates, and none too shiny cuttlery. Above this din Greta Maxwell, president of the Four Square, managed to raise her voice in thanks to Miss VanLuven and her girls. Trees Trees,--what an interesting field for study they present--If any of our honest law-abiding C.G.IT.s saw Mrs. Tait last week breaking a branch here and a bough there | do hope they didn't accuse her of muti- lating beauties of nature. Oh! no! She was preparing to give the Wan- akitas of Albert St. one of the most enjoyable and worthwhile nights they have had. Tuesday didn't mean much to our group before this talk, but now they are our chief interest of study. So much so that our next meeting will be a hike to study these beauties. And not only did we learn about the trees themselves, but Mrs. Tait left with us some very worth- while thoughts -- lessons gleaned fiom the trees to help us in our own growth and attitudes. And now, all you groups who like baseball. How about a real live game with the Wanakitas, We had a real tryout Tuesday night. Would you like tohear our line-up? Pitcher, Lois Wilson, catcher, Lillian Wil- liams; Ist gase, Queenie Silk; 2nd. base, Delta Hornby; 3rd base, Alma Canning; short stop, Elsic Rey- nolds; centre field, Doris Wheaton: Right field, Irene Adams; left field, Hattic Lawrence; Subs., Violet Cram. Others' Group Tuesday Evening, Simcoe St. "Oth- ers" C, G. I. T. Group held a Mother and Daughter meeting in the board room, which was beautifully decorat- ed with lighted fire place, floor lamps and candles and ferns. W¢ sang as our opening hymn, our favourite song who Touchest Earth with Beauty," This was followed by the Roll Call. The President, Mande Everson, welcomed the mothers ahd explained the C.GLT. programme. She concluded her welcome by lead- the girls in singing "Skina Mirinka." The Devotional was conducted. by the president. The Theme, Jesus Of Nazareth" was carried out per- fectly. The scripture lesson was read by Nellie Johnston. Hazel Hess gave an interesting reading which told of a speaker at a College Graduation, who said that the pupils were not educated until they could do every- thing, as did Jesus of Nazareth, The hymn "Never in a Prince's Palace" was followed by a prayer led by the president. : : A very lovely Mothers' Day pro- gramme was given by some of the girls. Ollwen Ward read an interest- ing article on the origin of Mothers' Day. This was followed by reading by Zella Wesson entitled "The Gospel According to Mother." Ollween Ward Women's and Misses' all sizes. Color and Combination Every known played a lovely piang solo which was enjoyed by all Eleanor Fleming gave the reading "The Cap that Mother Made" in a very interesting manner. A poem "It really isn't very hard to-be a Mother" was given by Brenda Ward. Everyone enjoyed this amusing poem very much. The pro gramme was closed by singing "Taps" While some of the girls prepared the refreshments, the mothers had a contest. Each mother wore some- thing to represent the name of a book, Mrs. Jones won the prize which was a bouquet of Sweet Peas. When 'they had completed the con- test, some of the mothers visited our class room which had just been re- deocrated. Refreshments were served at small tables decérated in Sweet Peas, Weren't the mothers surprised when we served them with sandwiches and strawberry shortcake! Who said that girls could not plan a surprise? Each mother was presented with a Sweet Pea before she left. Akitas Hello, Here we are again. How is everything in the South it 1s fine up here. Our attendance was down Tuesday night on account of exams- inations. But, they will all be out next Tuesday. Our mecting will be in the form of a hike to Grierson's woods. Snow Birds The Snow Bird Group held their regular meeting at the home of Mur- icl Kelly on Tuesday 12th, The meet- ing opened with "I Should be True". Hazel Perkin was elected president as Ruby Coulter had resigned. And our meeting adjourned with Taps, TELL TIME BY SKIRTS (By The Canadian Press) London, May 14.--"You can tell the time by the skirts of a well- dressed woman," says a well-known screen star. "Short skirts indicate the hours before noon, ankle-length hemlines announce the waning af- ternoon while trailing draperies herald the after-dinner period." She offers this fashionable hemline timetable: Nine a.m. to 12 noon: 12 to 13 inches from ground; 12 neon to 4 p.m., 10 to 8 inches from ground: 4 p.m. to 6 p.m., 8 to 4 inches from for Constipation DrPIERCES Pleasant Pellets AT ALL DRUG STORES ground; meet ground, 8 pm. to ? skirts SOPRANOS TO BE WEEDED OUT (By The Canadian Press) London, May 14.-- voiced sopranos, who are apt to sound so terrible on the loud speaker, may gradually be weeded out as a result of a new British Broadcasting Corporation effort to obtain better singers. The main in- tention is to reduce the number of sopranos and have more contraltos, but here come the difficulty. Ap- parently it is far easier to get a good soprano that it is to get a good contralto, so the result will pro- bably be fewer women singers. Those wobbly- WHILE WOMAN SEES CORONA- TION (By The Canadian Press) London, May 14.--Baroness Rav- ensdale, eldest daughter of the late Lord Curzon, went to Abyssinia at the end of last year.
