The basis OF poise in the hands is
to find a place for them. OF course.
every girl has fad in that direc-
ton, but with me there comes I,
feeling Of absolute security in car
rying a beautiful fan or handker-
chief. AS far as the fan Is concerned.
my visits to Spain have taught me
that with it and knowledge of its
eloquent possibilities, a girl who
commands the fan technique has
added a new language to her equip
ment.
AS means of grace. quite aside
from its intrinsic beauty, j have
learned to regard fan as part Of
ones costume. In Spain one cas-
lily takes on the habit. for comfort
in the brilliant sunshine and be-
cause of its graceful charm in re-
fleeing every mood.
From the perfection with which
Spanish women have acquired in
the fans uses. ] really believe they
could carry on an entire CONVERSE
ton with it, not uttering a word.
Occasionally. but not habitually
one sees fan carried in our own
country with evening dress. Learn
ing its fascination, l prefer never
to be without one at any function
Last summer brought twenty
rive of them home with me from
Spain.
Mode in Spain entirely occupies
the women's minds. whether it be
that of fan: a pair of brilliant
earrings or carnation in a gyp-
sy's hair. Mode in Spain means
grace. Girls will well understand
the psychology of it all, knowing
the value which that little touch
Of the unusual brings. It makes
them not only feel at their best.

The Spanish gypsy takes on a
more capricious tilt of the head

Panelmg' Used
Is Imported For Wealthy
American Homes.

New York, Nov. -. R-Although
English newspapers protest. and as
sociations have been formed In Brit
ain to prevent 1t, the steady stream
to America of whole rooms of oaken
panels taken from rich old country
houses In England continues.
Marshall Field of Chicago is the
latest to acquire a set of these old
English room panelings. He has
purchased through London agent
here no fewer than five rooms from
the Great House, Shrewsbury.
These oak walls we're installed dur
ing the reign Of James !. at the be-
ginning OF the seventeenth century.
Another room which has just ar
rived In America was removed from
Lower Hall, Liversedge, Yorkshire.

manor house built at the begin
ming OF the reign Of Charles II. In
the seventeenth century. The pam

specimen OF Jacobean work. and
contains a chimney piece Of the
same period.
Dealers have little difficulty in
disposing Of good examples OF old
rooms to millionaires who contem-
plate building new houses or re.
modelling their old ones.
These paneled rooms. which now
command big prices. were consid-
cred of little value in the eighteenth
century in England. Many Of the
manor house owners OF that GEN.
fury painted their oak walls green.
blue, white. or another color. or pa
pered them over. The Victorian
era was no kinder to them.
For the past several years
wealthy Americans have gone to
much difficulty and expense in pro-
curing for their own homes one or
more rooms OF this type. In some
cases whole English country houses
have been dismantled. brought to
America and set up here. But 1t
has been found more economical to
remove the, paneling from the
rooms, leaving the stripped frame
of the house behind.
This movement has met with
a counter movement in Eng
land, designed 10 acquaint British
owners OF oaken- paneled rooms
with the intrinsic beauty OF their
possessions. and TO inspire them
with patriotic desire to keep this
beauty in their own country.
