If you make your own evening froclSs you will welcome these up-to- the minute suggestions concerning the up-to-the-minute design which accompanies them. Metal laces are very much in the fashion for the next season, as you probably know. Why not use a bronze lace on this gown It will strike a note just a bit more novel than the silver lace which has been in use for several seasons now.
 High shades are used for evening. How would you like a burnt orange ? It will make you @ stunning gown that will be of the sort that will make folk "sit up and take notice.'' NOu know there are evening gowns of the type that are insipidly pale and sweet. there are those that be- come the "blbv vamp" (may her tribe soon die Out). And then there are those which are strikinEly stun ming and yet are not ridicuIously unyouthfuI In the latter class be- longs this gown
 The skirt is scaII0nad about the bottom and is quite full. A bit of bronze lace shows in front under meath the scaUOps which turn up to travel girdleward-
 The waist is perfectly plain with a vest of self material which continues below the narrow girdle and is edged with the lace. The flowers used upon the girdle might be fashioned out of the material used for the gown.

BEGUN FOR COMMON
 SENSE SHOE

Chinese women have started cam paign of their own for common sense shoes and perfectly-s shaped feet sim liar to the one which the Social Edu- cation Department of the Young Wo- mems Christian Association Is wag- ing in this country.
 The Chinese campaign is just part of the work of the National Students Patriotic Society and is being carried on by the women students some 5000 of them, who are included among the 20,000 students enrolled in this society for creating patriotic re- sistance among the Chinese to mis- government and foreign aggression.
 The Chinese girls go into the homes 10 talk 10 the women and, as so few of the women can read the literature which the students have, telling of their movement and what they want to do, they have made large, graphic charts which will emphasize the points they make. One of these Is a chart showing the bound foot of the Chinese women and the natural, un- bound foot, in such a way as to en- courage women to free themselves from ancient customs.
 After getting the women interested in being free themselves, Miss Star- ford says the students begin explain ing how China should be free from political bondage. They have worked out all sorts of ingenious ways of combining health and social educa- ton with political education and of injecting political education into household affairs in such a way that they can interest the women, first in subjects which they know and grad uaIly arouse them to patriotic zeal and understanding.
 Girls do none of the street speak ing for the campaign. They spend their time making things to raise money, translating leaflets Into q phonetic script which can be read by the people. experimenting in ways of manufacturing things which are scarce sine the boycott against Jap anese-made articles has become ef- fective, going into the homes to talk to the women, and in interviewing officials who have refused 10 grant the men students what they have asked.
 The four points for which the stu dents are fighting are: CD the Oust- ing of pro-Japanese and corrupt off cials from the Government in Peking; CD freedom of speech and of the press; (3) return of Shantung to China; C4) cancellation of the twer- ty-one demands made by Japan in 1915.

Birthday Bio-Briefs
 Famous Women
IUCRETIA.

She is a cleaning example, in the boisterous days of ancient Rome, of woman's purity. In 534 B. c. Tar quinius Superbus placed himself upon the throne, violent, dark, Htigious man. In his son Sextus the vices of the father were italicized In the war against the tribe of the Rutii, one evening in camp the kings son, Sextus, and Co1Iatinus and others were extolIng the beauty and virtues, each man, of his wife. CollatinuS resOlV- ed to decide the dispute, and invited them all to his house in Rome. The reception that the lovely Lucretia gave to the stormy soldiers so enchant- ed them that they shouted her praises above all Roman women But Sex tus had conceived a base passion for the modest and beautiful woman; and he swore to gratify it When her husband returned to camp he had himself brought into her bedchamber. Laying his sword on her white bos- orn. he swore to kill her did she re sist him. Though beside herself with terror Lucretia succeeded in re- pudiating him, until the brute letter
 ed her arms, and swore to slay her and to lay his slave in her bed as a token of her infamy. The mOnstrOus threat succeeded. Sextus boasted through Rome of his victory. But, surnmoning her husband to her the distracted Roman matron told him the truth, and, seizing his poignard plunged 1t into her breast 'I can not live having been dishonOred!" she cried. Lucretia was avenged. Rome arose around COllatinus; and Tarquin and his house were banish- ed forever from the city.

ETIQUETTE

Eating Corn-'Is it proper to break an ear of corn into pieces before eat ing it? Of what is the rule for eat ing an ear of corn in polite society 9" (Answer) Corn on the cob is describ- ed as "a finger food" It is custom ary to eat it from the unbroken cob. which is held in the fingers. This is a rather untidy process; therefore. corn on the cob is not served, as a rule, at formal dinner parties It is a course that belongs to the pri- vacy of the family circle.
 Books on Etiquette-So many read CTS of the Post have written asking me to name "a good book on eti- quette" that I give the following list, which I believe to be reliable and up to date
 "Encyclopedia of Etiquette" pub Iished by Doubleday. Page & Co.,; Encyclopedia of Social Usage" pub lfshed by Putnam; Etiquette of To- ners and Social Usages," by Harp CTS. Undoubtedly there are others of value, but these are the ones with which I am most familiar.
 Mrs" Though Unmarried-"Is there any positive rule against an un- married woman calling herself Mrs If she chooses to do so?" (Answer.) ) It is not customary in this country. But in England an unmarried wom- an may be called Mrs" after she reached the age of 50. if she so de- sires.

Wedding Gifts-Do wedding an nouncements or marriage announce ments call for a gift or is it only the wedding invitations or invitations to a wedding reception which, by terms of etiquette, require one?" (Answer.) One of the best authorities on so- cial customs writes on this topic: When wedding cards extending an invitation to witness merely the church ceremony are received by one who has only the most formal ac- quaintance with bride or groom or with either of their families, there rests no obligation to send a gift It would be perfectly proper to send one if the recipient of the cards wish ed to, and many people feel that the receipt of such cards calls for gift. The obligation is indeed binding when the cards include an invitation to the reception or breakfast, as well as to the church.

Acknowledgement of an invitation Tn acknowledging an invitation to a wedding, does one write to the the bride personally or to her par ents?" (Answer.) Always address the answer to a formal letter to the one who sent it to you. The wedding in- vitation comes from the brides par ents; therefore you send your ack- nowledgements to them and not to the bride herself. (Another point is answering formal letters: Always fol- low the same form in your reply as in the original letter. If the original letter reads that M dna.r
 letter reads that ''Mr. and Mrs. Smith invite Miss Jones'" etc, you should reply that Miss Jones accepts with pleasure Cor declines with regrets) the kind invitation of Mir. and Mrs Jones' etc. But if the letter began Dear Miss Jones' etc, you would begin the reply Dear Mrs. Smith, '' etc.
