5 THE COLBORNE EXPRESS, COLBORNE, ONT. THURSDAY, OCT. '17, 1935 STREAMLINE FIGURES FOR 1936 The long slim graceful lines of the newest in aeroplanes, speedboats and racing cars are our latest models for figure beauty and a living example of streamline loveliness in Greta Garbo. No one has been more widely imitated than Greta Garbo in the Inatter of clothes. Countless young ■women have tried to achieve the effect of her long flowing lines by copying her gowns to the minutest detail . • . but with depressing results. Somehow they did not look Klini and Garboish. Reason? Garbo has long graceful legs, a full 17 inches longer then her measurements from head to ■waistline, and she is five feet, six inches tall. Now in order to determine your correct proportions for the streamline figure, ascertain YOUR exact height. Then, for every inch over deportment and fools everyone . without the aid of mirrors . . . into believing her to be fabulously long and willowy. WAISTLINE: No matter wher< your normal waistline may be, bi sure to have it raised in your frocks to the point where your legs would begin if they were of the elongated variety. If your legs are 1% inches too short, raise the waistline inches; if two inches too short, i it two inches. And be drastic about it. No one will ever know the difference except in the general effect. .HIPS AND THIGHS: Have your dresses molded over the hips and thighs in lengthwise gored effects-- NEVER ruffles, peplums or tunics. What you want is extension of line . . . not breadth. SHOULDERS: To emphasize that slim, ready look fn the waist down, try for a broadi ing effect of the shoulders.

In other words, if you are feet, four inches tall, your body should measure 23% inches your legs, 40% inches. For correct arm length, add or subtract one-half inch for every inch of height; for length of neck, add or subtract % inch, according to height. And if your figures tally, you can be sure you have the correct streamline proportions. But suppose they don't. What if your legs are 39 inches long and your body 25 inches? This definitely puts you in the class of the short-legged close-to-the-ground woman. Now here's where the clever girl observes the following rules of dress that have tightly fitted sleeves or raglan shoulders. One produces a narrow pinched effect, the other a sloping droop. Square, shirred or loose shoulders should be your aim. NECK: High, throat - neck ones %create the illusion of a slender swanlike neck, contributing to slim-ness and general height. ARMS: They can be lengthened by the wide shoulder device mentioned above and also by the careful use of long sleeves and tight cuffs. The latter should never he flared for they tend to broaden the figure wherever they happen to strike, when With the pointers just listed, everyone can have a streamline figure and really "be in tune with the times". Its all just a matter of "extending" yourself. , THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING TIME -- This particular pro phecy of Jeremiah occurred, it would appear from the text itself, at thi time when the great revival brok out in the eighteenth year of Josi ah's reign,, which was the fifth year of the ministry of Jeremiah, and, therefore, about B.C. 621. PLACE -- At the gate of the temple in Jerusah We place this chapter ii eighteenth year of Josiah's reign, which was the fifth year of the mir istry of Jeremiah, B.C. 621. "Stand in the gate of Jehovah' house." In Herod's temple there were seven gates connecting the ner with the outer court,-viz., three on the south, and one on the west. If this represented the state of things in Solomon's temple, Jeremiah would probably have stood at one of these looking down upon the people who were assembled in the outer court, prepared to pass in- "And proclaim there this word, and say, Hear the word of Jehovah, all ye of Judah, that enter m a these gates to worship Jehovah.' All the people of Judah could only addressed if there was some na. tional feast being observed at this Thus saith Jehovah ot hosts, the God of Israel Amend your ways and doings, and I will cause you to dwell in this place." Ways will mean ■ather the settled habits; doings, the separate acts which go to form Trust yea not in lying words, saying." The word is often used by-Jeremiah to describe the vanity and falsehood, founded on the method of the teachers who opposed him. "The Jehovah, the temple of Jehovah, temple of Jehovah, the temple of The threeiold repitition is for the sake of emphasis. "For if ye thoroughly amend your ways and your doings; if ye thoroughly execute justice between a man and his neighbor."

The Mosaic law was stronger in it denunciations of these sins (Ex. 22:21 ff,; Deut. 24:17ff.). "And shed not innocent blood in this place-" That is, by false accusations and unfair trials and the persecution of the innocent. "Neither walk after other gods to your own hurt." It should always be remembered that the laws which God gave to Isrel were given for their good (Deut. 6:24), and any violation of a law, the obedience to which would certainly bring good, must result in hurt. "Then will I cause you to dwell in this place, in the land that I gave to your fathers, from of old even for evermore." As a great German scholar, J. H. Kurtz, has said: "This bond still continues, even though Israel has been banished for seventy, and again for eighteen hundred, years from the land of its '.nheritance. As the body is adapted and destined for the soul, and the soul for the body, so is Israel destin. ed for that land and that land for "Will ye steal, murder, and commit adultery, a,id swear falsely." All of these sins are referred to in second table of the decalogue, deeply Israel was guilty of each of these sins at this particular time, we do not know. 'And burn incense unto Baal, I walk after other gods that ye have not known." The sins here referred to belong to the first table of the decalogue, and, in reality, are those which are generally first indulged in before sins against one's fellow-men are committed. "And come and stand before me in this house, which is called by my name, and say, We are delivered ; that ye may do all these abominations?" Jeremiah actually charges these people with believing in their minds that, by the discharge of the duty of offering sacrifices and worshipping in the temple of Jerusalem, they were set free for a return to wickedness. "Is this house, which is called by my name, become a den of robbers in your eyes?" This verse is the one to which Christ alludes in his de. munciation of somewhat similar conditions in his own day (Matt. 21:13; Mark 11:17; Luke 19:46). /'Behold, I even I, have seen it, saith Jehovah." Jeremiah, here, no doubt, touches ironically on the false confidence with which the Jews deceived themselves. "Thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: Add your burnt-of. ferings unto your sacrifices, and eat ye flesh." Burnt offerings consumed whole, while of sacrifices certain portions were reseVve be eaten by the priest and the offerer. The scene here is ■-- Add sacrifice to another -- multiply your victims ad libitum; it will feet you not. I spake not unto your fathers, nor commanded ther £he day that I brought them out of the land of Egypt concerning burnt-offerings or sacrifices." The asser. tion here made is a very difficult to understand on the surface. That sacrifices were instituted in wilderness, the Pentateuchal books clearly reveal, and some have concluded from this that those ticular passages in the Pentateuch ipeaking of sacrifices were inserted centuries later. The correct expl; tion of this passage is well stated by Professor A. W- Streane. phraseology -of Jeremiah proves that he had in his mind the promulgati of the Ten Commandments on Sin Now, among these, we find no rection concerning sacrifices a they were the only precepts which had the honor of being treasured up "But this thing I commanded them, saying, Hearken unto my and I will be your God, and ■>y_e, shall be my people; and walk ye all the way that I command you, and that it may be well with you." From the fact that obedience to the moral law always ranked first, it follows, and this is Jeremiah's spe-point, that sacrifices were wholly worthless when offered by the immoral.
