Mother Colony Society Woman's Page--Social Notes Fashions by Mary Ann Palm Springs play fashions are usually previews of spring fashions... Here would be a definite dayful of desert apparel—a dip in a cool, blue pool, clad in a suit of sea-green taffea matletex; a leisure breakfast and morning in pajamas of red, black and white silk jersey; and afternoon of badminton in a white playsuit with blue-checked trim; and late tea in a smart slack suit of red rayon with a blue blouse. Yes, that would be a day of pleasure to dress and to rest like that. But most of us don't have the time or opportunity to dream and "let the rest of the world go by" at Palm Springs. We spend six days working and have a day of leisure, if we're lucky. However, we can all enjoy the spring fashions mentioned above. And, although we can't wear these outfits all in one day, we can use one or two of them for a spring and summer of recreation. PRINT FROCK, SHORT JACKET Watch for the gay print frock and short wool jacket to lead all other styles this spring and summer. As a rule, the jacket is in a soft wool, which matches one of the predominating colors of the print. THESE WOMEN'S HATS Women's hats, the talk of almost every town and the subject of ridicule for about a century and eyen before that by our gentlemen friend, are this year supposedly to make a portrait of your face. What this will do to the cryptic remarks flung nationally concerning women's hats in general and no one in particular, remains to be seen. Famous designers endorse picture frame brims. The silhouette frankly reveals the face and introduces squared off brim edges which have the effect of picture frames with trimmings encased within. Color arrangements that would blend in a picture are being used on hats—the pink of Gaugin, the blues and greens and fruit colors of Gezanne, Van Gough's vibrant yellows and startling greens and pink of Matisse.

I woke up in high hopes this morning and was so anxious about getting off at Shih-p'u that I could hardly eat my breakfast. I sat at the rail and carefully watched the horizon for gunboats and patrols. At the appearance of every blot of smoke on the horizon my heart sank and did not rise again until that smoke had disappeared in the distance. The greatest blow of all was to find an armed merchantman and two patrol boats at the exact spot where we wanted to approach land. So we had to keep out in the open and proceed on our way toward Wenchow. THROUGH BLOCKADE Captain Haaman expected to get through the blockade at Wenchow tonight before the moon is up. He hoped to get through a very small back passage where the patrol boats would not be likely to watch for us. I was taking a long nap this afternoon in preparation for an exciting night. All at once I was awakened by a shout from one of the crew, "Open fire! Open fire!" Then I heard a heavy report and the scream of a shell flying thru the air. I sat up in my bunk and there was a second report and scream of shell. Then I heard Mr. Ufford in the next cabin tell his wife that they had better go below. At that moment everything else was drowned out by the clanging of anchor chains, engine bells and tooting of the whistle. ARMED MERCHANTMAN By the time I got out on deck everybody was down below. Since there was no more firing they began to come back up on deck. Some of them had seen the flashes of the guns but none of us could seen the vessel from which they had been fired. After awhile., we saw an armed merchantman come around from behind an island. They signaled us to follow them to a different anchorage. We are lying beside them now awaiting further orders. It will now be impossible to get in to Wenchow and we may be turned back to Shanghai.
