FASHION HINTS Knee length tennis dresses prom- ise to be popular. These f-^ccks are in silk and though they are called ten- nis dresses, are frequentl.v dainty and individual enough in their styling to be worn tor spectator sports. Processing against showers â€" last year it was done on a comparatively small scale, since the showerproof process had been considered in cost- uming principally for raincoatts. This spring, however, the pra'-ticality aad gelling power of the idea has grown tremendously in sportswear, with knitwear, linen suits, and flannel golf skirts illustrating some of the groups to come under its influence. Heads have become demure with braids and soft coils worn in a halo above the brow. Some of the smart- est arrangements are -xc-hieved with braided coronets of artificial hair or with a row of saucy curls along the nape of the neck. For sv^imming, ten- nis, golf, and other sports the chic woman wears a bob. even briefer than last season, but with evening she dons strands ot long hair In keeping with formal dress. The de- tachable switch seems the only means ot reconciling fctshion's va- grant whims tor boyish bob* with the dignified effect of woman's "crowning glory" for those hour* after tea. ral cross; but as the day wore on, one of them, moved by the sublime attitude of the Saviour, and perhaps having some previous knowledge of his character and teachings, was actually converted. "Now from the si-\'^h hour (noon, the day beginning at l' A.M.) there was darkress over all ti.« land until the ninth hour" (3 P.M.*. It was passover and the moon was full, so that the darkness was not caused by an eclipse, but was supernatural, nature joining with the sufferings of the Creator. The crucifixion began at the bird hour, the time of the daily morning sacrifice in the temple, and the height of Christ's sufferings and his death occurred at the ninth hour, the time of the daily evening sacrifice. "The darkness at the cross speaks to us of the mystery of Ato- nement. "-\nd about the ninth hour " Jesus had spoken the third word from the cross, his loving commen- dation of his mother to John the beloved disciple, who from that hour took her to his own house. "Jesus cried with a loud voice." Showing that his physical energies were still far from exhausted. "Eli, Eli, lama ^i-«i "^ay ScViool Lesson XI. (23). â€" June 10.

".\nd when they were come unto a place called Golgotha, that is to say. The place of a skull." Golgotha from the Aramaic and Calvary from the Latin both mean the "place of a skull. "Thej gave him wine to drink mingled with gall." This was a nar- cotic drink prepared regularly for the condemned by a guild of kindly women in Jerusalem. "-A.nd when he had Usted it." .\n act of courtesy characteristic of our Saviour. "He would not drink." Doubtless the refusal was with thanks. The cross is the crowning se- rvice of his life. For -such hours, when tremendous demands are going are going to be imposed a man must be at his clearest and his best." ".A.nd when they had crucified him' They stretched his body on the cross as it lay on the groLind and drove a long spike through each hand into the crossbar, and another through the crossed feet into the upright of the cross. Then they raised the cross and let it fall with a sickening wrench in- to the hole prepared for. It was at this time, seemingly, that Jesus utter- ed the first of the recorded "words from the cross," the wonderful pray- er for his crucifiers, "Father, forg- ive them for they know not what not what do. "They parted his garments among "'""" ''----'â€"â- -â- --â- them, casting."

They who represfiited the worlds greatest Strength watched thus heedlessly beside Him who was the world's greatest Love. They were of course the soldiers ot Rome. "And they set up over his h*ad his accusation written. This Is Ji-sus, the King ot the Jews." According to cust. om a white tablet was nailed to his cross setting forth the crime of the person crucified. "Then are there crucified with him 2 robbers, one to the right hand and one on the left."

WHEN THE NEW BABY ARRIVES In Breaking the .News of the Youngest of "^ our Present Family Don't Hurt His Feelings by Telling Him His "Nose is Out of Joint " It is always a tender questior. how to break the news ot a new baby to the "other baby" â€" the little two or three-year-old who has been the centre of the universe until the 'atest You can get around it vo-y well with the older child, the little boy or girl of five or six. They can be told the baby is coming, help to get ready for it. and be partners in "our baby." But the younger child won't under- stand all the preparation's and he won't be ready. Yet it is better, if it I'an be done, not to break his little heart even for a day. Hell get used to it. ot course, but who knows what jealousies or antagonisms against slsfrs or bro- thers have their beginnings at this time? It never does to disregard a little child's reactions hecau.se he is only two or three years old Too often we use the old alibi about him getting used to things. He may not get over his first shock, or not al- together, as long as he lives. Getting Acquainted One little fellow I know has a sister. He hasn't seen ler yet be- cause she is still in the hnspits! and hospitals have a way with them about segregating new babies from street germs that visitors may bring In. even nice little brothers. So he will have to wait until his mother and new sister get home be- fore making her acqtiaintance. No cue in the family has said, "You're not mamas baby any more. She has a new baby -ow." Great care has been taken to avoid any teasing about "noses being o'tt of joint" and all that kind of talk. I think it will happ,»n something like this. There is a new basinette ready Cor the new baby in the n-rsery. Without his knowing it the latest baby will be carried in and Ipid in her bed. .\tter Jimmy's re-unlon with his mother is over and he ha* dis- covered she loves him as m'l. h as ever after being away hs will be call- ed into the nursery to have ^ look- see at the stranger. ' The nurse will probably say," •Here's Jimmy's new baby. Isn't she nice? She's yours. Your little sister. Sit dowu on your little chair a''d I'll put her on your lap." He will sit down in great txcite- ment. Nurse will !ift the bundle from the bed and lay it on its brother's lap, holding it caretuUy. of course. He will have time to examii.e It â€" eyes. nose, mouth aad lit'le hands. He will be enormously interested. How the nurse will say. "Let's show mama. Let us take the baby in to luama. I guess fli carry her but yott hold her dress. We'll both carrv her." They go in and lay her on mama's bed. The lady will be ever so sur- prised. Together they will admire the new vie; or. .\nd from tha' min- ute on I predict Jimmy will take his mother's care of the baby entirely from granted with no stab ot hurt. If this seems a roundabout intro- duction and all "phooy." I sbou'd like to say that I don't consider i* so. but on the contrary very wise. Fam> ily relationships through life are of- ten established in the Irst flv«- min- utes when bnbie."* meet. MUTT AND JEFF- By BUD FISHER f
