Sport Frocks Apart From Sports
BY MARY MARSHALL.

women don't like to dress more than
twice a day; and IL they dress for
dinner they don't like to bother
changing for afternoon. The woman
who does not dress for dinner. and
whose social activities seldom extend
after sundown, is far more apt to
appear at afternoon parties all dolled
up. ---------- --'- = 80 -------
The sketch shows a sports frock of
henna simply trimmed with brown
buttons and a leather belt and-most
tmportant-the new inverted box
pleat at the front, which seems to be
regarded at present as the smartest
way to introduce the fullness of the
skirt necessary to a sport or general
utility frock.

ing a wide ebrimmed ostrich-trfmmed
chapeau with this frock. She would
usually, though not always, avoid
earrings Certainly she would wear
her jewelry stintingly. But oddly
enough the sports frock does not

What TodayMeans to You
Sagittarius.
BY MARY BLAKE.

Numerous high tension vibrations
manifest themselves today. and II one
tpersiStently maintains poise and acts
with deliberation these aspects viii
prove helpful for new ideas and en-
courage skill in the execution of me-
|chanical and business pursuits. These
conditions prevail until the early
party of the evening. Thereafter.
they become unsettled and doubtful,
with a tendency to impulse in action
and speech and disposition to quar-
rel or to nag. Light recreative
amusements. or reading, will possibly
promote that atmosphere which 1t is
desirable to maintain, and all conten
tions subjects liable to produce argu-
ment and engender difference should
be eschewed.
A child born today, although it
will experience the usual ailments of
infancy. will successfully combat
these, and attain exceptional ply
sical strength and prowess. 1t will
be magnanimous. open hearted, ro-
bust and jovial. 1t friends will al
ways know where it stands. and
while sometimes brusque in speech,
1t will never do or say Intentionally
anything unkind. 1t will possess
marked amount of sentiment and be
xcessively loyal to kith and kin. 1t
will be demonstrative and affec-
tionate, and will receive constant
love in return,
If today is your birthday, you are
original and aggressive, and have the
ability to lead, whether 1t be in So
ciety or business. Your aggressive
ness is not disagreeable and those
who follow you do not resent your
leadership; on the contrary, they ap
preciate it, and are happy in giving
you their loyalty and devotion.
You are humorous and affable, al
omnivorous reader, careful student,
and a lucid thinker. You have a
pretty wit, and very keen sense
truths without creating sore or
leaving a sting. Your studies, like
your reading, cover a wide range of
subjects, with the result that your
general information is great, while
your information on any one sub
ject is limited. You generalize, but
do not specialize.
You love to excel. and put the
same yigor into a game that you
put into your most serious under
taking. You are an exponent of the
creed that IL anything is worth do
ing at all it is worth doing as well
as you know how.
Well known persons born on this
date are: Harrison Millard, singer
and composer: Cornelius Vanderbilt
financier: Henry A. Rowland, phys
icist; Samuel Davis, hanged as spy;
Margaret r. Lang, composer: Kath-
crime Susan Anthony, social worker.

Cocoa will not lump if sugar
is mixed with it before the hot

Eggs are expensive now. In
recipes calling for several, some
may be omitted If a tablespoonful
of -four is added for each egg.
Preserved fruit or meat should
always be opened an hour or two

There Are Good Programs

NEW YORK. July 5.--Distance IL

for the radio enthusiast.
The question no longer IL How
far can reach?" but What pro-
gram shall / hear?" according to
Information made available by the
radio section of the Associated Man.
ufacturers of Electrical Supplies.
Many radio fan this summer
has discovered for the first time
that in his efforts to sweep dis
tant fields he had been missing
the real joys Of radio reception"
II is pointed out by L. w. Staunton,
a radio expert, who IL now collect
ing data on this situation for the
association. Radio listeners in
many parts Of the United States
are becoming fervent 'rootersi for
their hometown talent. and many
interesting factors are likely to
develop from this movement.
For one thing, the encourage
ment thus lent to local talent
should result In a great improve
ment of program material. For
another thing, the general practice
of choosing program upon merit
rather than upon distance would
solve some Of the serious problems
OF interference now experienced In
the air.
Then there is also the question
OF summertime reception. Atnos
pheric disturbances during warm
weather occasionally prevent the
satisfactory hearing of distant sta.
tons, whereas nearby stations can
be heard without difficulty If the
set is in reasonably good condition
ana the owner familiar with itr
operation.
AS the attention of radio listen.
ers was concentrated on the pro
grams of local stations, there
would arise community interest
In singers and musicians native
sons and daughters. as it were.
The development Of this spirit
would mean great deal for the
industry as q whole and for the
users OF radio apparatus. In turn
local artists would be given an
opportunity to win public recogni.
ton for their talents, and this
might lead to their success in
broader fields, just as the reputa.
tons of established artists have
been enhanced by their appear.
ances before the enormous audi.
ences offered by radio.
AS an evidence Of what com.
munity spirit can do for an artist
the example Of a Seattle composer
may be given. This composer at.
tracted so much favorable atten.
ton through his appearances at the
local station that he was able 20
start on a tour OF the larger sta.
tons with. good prospect Of hav.
ing his works published. Before
ne left, he was presented with a
watch, a testimonial from the
radio public subscribed to on its
own initiative"

equipment will be located on the

ment is somewhat similar to that
Of the Drake Hotel, Chicago. In
fact 1t Ii really understood that the
Chicago hotel set the example for
the Majestic.
At present there are several hotels
in the East which are connected by

hotel in New York to actually

The studio is located on the

the microphone will be hidden. In
