WILL HAYS AND
WILL ROGERS In
UNIQUE FIGHT

BENTRLY HILLS, June 15-Will
Rogers, the wandering mayor OF
Beverly Hills, was reported to be
we'll on the road to recovery today,
following a nervous breakdown that
confined him to bed for several
days.
In fact the rope tossing comedian
feels so much better that he has re-
newed his feud with Will Hays, the
two having been engaged in a
friendly duel since the latter invited
Rogers to contribute to the $l5,-
100000 fund for Presbyterian min
listers.
The contest enters unique chap
ter. Rogers is to be the guest of
honor at banquet here tomorrow
night, the purpose of which is to
raise funds for the Occidental col

THEATERS

White Flannels, Warner pro-
duction featuring Louise Dresser
and Jason Robards, now at the Air
dome, is a melodrama of mother
love. Mother-plays. when Louise
Dresser is the mother take on an
especial Importance, for no other
screen actress of the day can so
authenticallv portray the maternal.
The part which she plays in "White
Flannels gives her an opportunity
to depict q different type of mother
from those of her former pictures.
1t is probably the most poignant of
all, from the fact that while mean
ing to do well b. her son. she is
doing him an injnstice, which only
the intervention of fate could make
right. She is a Polish woman this
time, intent upon making of her son
a gentleman who wears white flan-
nPls.
Jason Robards plays the part Of
the son, at first miner and later
a football champion at college. Ro-
bards performances are uniformly
consistent and intelligent and his
Frank Broska is no exception.
Warner Richmond as Frank s
chum, Sunny Kolchek, creates a
masterpiece of happy -go-lucky,
rough kindliness, and the beautiful
Virginia Browne Faire is a ging-
ham princess who might turn the
head of more important people than
even Sunny Kolchek or Frank Bros
ka.
George Nichols gives a memorable
performance as old man Broska who
spends his life and meets his death
in the mines. Others in the east are
Brooks Benedict, Rose Blossom and
Rosemary Cooper.

Economy and Powder.

The girl with too much powdered
face is bound to be misunderstood. /
mean she looks cheap and therefore
people will think she's cheap when the
only trouble is thoughtlessness. Don't
use too light a powder and don't use
too much. and you are all right.
You can get around this danger by
using compact powder, which comes in
large sizes for the dressing table as
well as small ones for your purse.
Some boxes of loose powder have net
or a metal sitter over the top, so your
puff never gets too much on 1t. And
you can avoid the danger of getting an
overdose of powder on your skin by
using fiat lamL's wool washable
puff, instead of large and insanitary
feather one.
Of course you can avoid the danger
of overpowdering by simply being
careful! But this chat is for the
careless or hurried girl.
Face powder is not expensive. You
can get good powder for soc and the
very finest for $3.50. Frankly I'd buy
the best, for one medium sized box
should last you a year and even $3.50
isn't a great deal to spend for face
powder over that period. You must
buy the very finest quality, for it
shows up less and the color is better;
it blends in with the shade of the skin.

Mrs. Skunk Is Clever.

One night Jimmy Skunk led his
family up to Farmer Browns house n
trifie early. Jimmy had wakened
early that afternoon. In fact, the
whole family had wakened early. Not
being able to get to sleep again. they
all became uneasy. You see they all
had Weakened hungry. Finally Jimmy
could stand the whining and com
planning no longer: so he led the fam
lily forth and up to Farmer Brown :.
When they got up there the shed
door was open. but there were no
plates of food out in the shed for them
and the kitchen door was closed.
Great was the disappointment in the
Skunk family. The youngsters began
to whine and complain. Jimmy wan
dered around aimlessly. He didn't
know what to do about it.
II don't understand it, said Mrs.
skunk Il don't understand it at all.
We ought TO find out about it. 1t
seems to me that ! can smell some
food at this crack. 1t smells good TO
me. Mrs. Jimmy was shifting along
the crack underneath the kitchen door.
Yes. sir" she continued. there
are good things TO eat inside there.
I'm just going to find out about it. If
we are not TO have anything 10 eat
tonight l want to know It,"
Now what do you think Mrs. Jimmy
did? She promptly began to scratch
on the door. She has good, stout and
rather sharp nails. Scratch. scratch,
scratch, went those little nails on the
kitchen door. In 81 moment she heard
footsteps. She stopped scratching.
The door was thrown wide open.
There stood Mother Brown. My
land"' she exclaimed. Il haven't called
you to dinner. Don't YOU know that
it isn't dinner time yet? You'll have
to wait a bit. You shouldn't have
come so early" Then she turned
around and paid no further attention
to them, but she left the kitchen door
open.
Mrs. Jimmy led the way in. Jimmy
followed her and then came the six
young Skunks. They all expected to
find their plates of food on the kitchen
floor. But again they were disap
pointed. Then they began to wander
about, while Mother Brown went
about her work preparing supper.

Badness and scanty hair have pre-
scented a seemingly insoluble problem

TOO, has her scalp troubles, although
they have never been so evident to the

Therefore, men and bobbed young

Cherry Trees and Hatchets

distance knot in another berry. Cut
the thread and suspend the cherries
| from twigs on the branch. Inese
| trees are SO easy to make that they
can be used for the decoration of
rooms, with pleasing effects.
Guessing Game.
The hostess supplies guests Win
! tally cards cut in the shape OF
| hatchets and asks each guest to write
down guess as to the number OIL
cherries on the largest of these trees
There should be too many cherries
for guests to count quickly. The
guessing is done after the company
has formed in line and marched slow
~ about the tree. or course, the host
ess knows exactly the number. ana
awards a prize to the man and the
woman whose guess is right or the
nearest to correct. A round cherry
pincushion made Of satin silk or cloth
and suspended from green cord with
two green leaves fastened to the stem
makes a good prize for woman, while
couple Of small cherries OF the same
sort makes a good boutonniere for
mans prize.
Picking Cherries
This game consists not of plucking
cherries from a tree. but OF seeing
how many cranberry cherries" each
person in turn can pick up from
table on which the berries are strewn.
They must not be piled up. Use
ia blespoon as the picker" Scores
should be kept on the Ratchet tally
cards, and a prize awarded for the
highest score. There should he three
rounds for small party A small
Jerusalem cherry tree is suggested for
this prize, though a box of candied
cherries would do equally well.
Cherry Writing.
The hostess puts baskets of cher
ries' in the center of tables about
which the players are seated for cards.
She requests each person to write the
word "Washington'S" as quickly and
as legibly as possible. using the cram
berry cherries for the purpose. AT
q given signal the lettering ceases and
the players leave tables to see all the
words and vote which is written best.
Then they again seat themselves,
though not necessarily in the same
places as before. and write the word
birthday" in the same way and vote
as before. Each player receiving the
highest votes for the words receives a
prize. \ locket or small frame con-
tanning miniatures of Washington
would be good for these prizes. The
miniature could be the steel engraving
Of Washington on a 2-cent stamp.
while the lockets could be as ineXpen-
sive or as nice as the hostess wished
to get.
