PATRIOTS DAY
ON ANYWAYS

This is Patriots Day and the
"shot that was heard around the
world" 152 years ago win echo
along the sound wave lengths this
evening from many points Of the
compass--transformed into oratory
and music. The story OF the Battle
OF Lexington will be told in many
forms this evening, for the New
England radio programs are full Of
1t and It win reach even as far
south as WRC where at $3.50 this
great moment in history will be the
subject of the WEAF series Of
broadcasts under that title.
For those who may be able to
tune 1t, one of the big features of
the evening program will come
from WMAQ, at 9:15, where the
brilliant and erratic Ethel Leginshi
is scheduled to direct the Chicago
Woman's Sympto- Orchestra. We
are telling about this with our
fingers crossed and after walking
three times around our chairi
Ethel Leginski is what one may
call the greatest hide.and-seek
pianiste in the world. There isn't
any doubt whatever about her be-
ing one of the greatest pianists in
the world-sfe is distinctly that
but shares the distinction with
others. Her hide.and-seek pro-
clivity is an individual trait, how
ever, which she shares with no one
else, She is scheduled to direct the
orchestra this evening-as we have
stated. Maybe she win and maybe
She wont! Nobody but Ethel Legin-
ski knows and nobody will know
until the orchestra actually starts
playing under her direction.
A movie, a good book, cross
word puzzle or the excitement of
watching traffic pass her hotel win.
dow may either or all appear to
Ethel more interesting than direct
ing symphony orchestra. II So
she viii do what interests her most!
But, we've given you the tip-and
the prcspect-even Leginski can
do no more!

Ruffles. frills and decorations of all
sorts are to be found adding soften
ing influence to the erstwhile severe
lines of the pyjama.
When the very simple lines of th,.

the use of elaborate embroidery or
the richness of color and fabric.
Exotic metal fabrics are seen for
the pyjama suits. Trousers and blouse

combining the blouse in picturesque
lines to harmonize with the gay red
roses that decorate the blouse front
are seen. Overiackets of br0caded

There are dainty sets which stress the
importance of handwork in creating
subtle smartness. Although lace is
used on many of the combinations or

smartness of the delicate hand-drawn
stitches or fine embroidery that marks

Colors have come into prominence
in the things that are worn beneath
