Ny Secrets Of Charm

we have a number Of types Of
eyebrows to replace the old hair
line effect. The new modes are
lovely and give an individuality
TO the face that is welcomed as
warmly as the new shades Of
rouge and powder.
The position, shape and size of
the eyes and nose as well as the
hairline on the forehead are the
governing factors in determining
the general line of the eyebrows.
So this is the first thing for each
person to consider if the whole
subtlety of the facial expression
is to be enhanced instead CT
dulled.
A harrow or square face per-
mits a greater variety Of eye
brow formation. If you think
that the long, narrow type Of
eyebrow is best suited to you the
line may be made broader at the
nose and gently taper down to a
point. A slight arch may be kept
If that is preferred to an even
line. The wide effect at the nose

streets with a thin sheet Of black
linoleum and serving as a pre-
carious carpet for thousands OF
weary feet. High heels stepping
along in staccato fashion, heavy
brogans sloshing forward care

a pair of steady rubbers, giving
vent to squeaky cries of laughter

Out Of the thousands, one pair
Of dancing feet. Dancing feet
that skipped and two-stepped and
pirouetted, careless of slippery

way through the intricacies of
traffic and frisked along a mar

They paused momentarily be-
fore a brownstone front, then
conquered a long row of rumbly
steps in three sharp leaps. Their
owner toyed with a key, threw
open a door and once again made
a Joyous ascent. Inside a small
studio apartment the girl flung
her hat and coat TO the floor,
skipped to a desk, and there
wrote:
"P. S. She got the job" This
on a large placard which she
hung. mirror fashion. over the
door.
Then she went to the telephone
and called a number. Her voice
sang with Joy, as she said,
"Mother, this is Babs. I've got
the grandest job-for $40 a
week. Wen be rich in a month
See you tonight"
She busted her nose with
powder. arranged her hair and
flung open the door in answer
to a bell. "Do you see that?"
she inquired of an attractive
young man who came in. DO

door,"
The young man did see. "Oh!

- HAPING and dyeing the eye
~ brows is one Of the most
fascinating of feminine
feats when it is skilfully done.
Clumsy fingers, however, can
mar the delicate touch essential
to this branch of beauty culture
and then the eyebrows become
merely painted and plucked.
No longer is woman content to
accept blindly Natures gifts in
pulchritude in their original
form. Modern beauty standards
are based upon improvement, so
study the contour of the face
carefully before removing one
single hair from the eyebrows.
The hairline eyebrow is gone
beyond recall. 1t has been wan

seasons until now it is decidedly
"has-been." During the time this

We all know that light-colored
eyebrows and lashes are inef
fectua,l hence the wide use of
eyebrow pencils for making
them darker. More recent than
the eyebrow pencil Is the dyeing
Of the brows and lashes. These
dyes are specially made for the
purpose and are perfectly harm
less even when a stray drop gets
into the eyes. I'm not referring
to hair dyes, but to the dyes made
especially for coloring the eye
brows and eyelashes so don't con-
fuse the two. The dyes stay on
the brows and lashes for several
weeks and are most satisfactory.
Most of these dyes come in
two shades, medium and dark.
The medium is used when the
hair i blond or light brown while
the dark is best for those whose
hair is red, dark brown D. black.
To use this dye dip a small
camel's-hair brush into the bot
tie and apply it along the brows.
Be sure to spread the dye evenly
so that the brows are one solid
tone. The eyelashes should be
treated as well as the brows to
balance tie coloring Of the two.

BY Betty Brownlee.

THERE isn't a season in the
year that doesn't. bring
something new in the
world Of fashions. There are, of
course, always new materials.
They may be just slight varia-
tons of something from the sea
son before, but they're different
and new.
Colors are always changing;
we find new shades Of brown, a
brighter green, perhaps, and AR
ious blendings of old colors
which bring new results. And
one sea.on will find flares popu-
lar while the dawn of the follow
ing season finds a rage for the
straight line costume.
But, like the brook that goes
on forever. black satin has made
a permanent place for itself in
women's fashions. It's used all
four seasons of every year and
has created for itself a definite
nook in a woman's wardrobe.
Black satin in coats for
Spring, black satin frocks for all
year round wear, evening gowns
Of black satin-and now comes
the black satin ensemble. The
popularity Of this material is
easily explained. We find very
few types of women to whom
black is not becoming. And one
cannot think Of an occasion for
which the black satin costume
would not be appro pirate
The black satin ensemble
shown in the illustration brings
US a costume suit that Is de-
cidedly new. It's coat i the con-
ventional three-quarter length
with a new belt treatment. the
belt coming from beneath and
Just showing in the front. The
black caracul collar is applied in

Below the coat line peeps a

with the skirt Is a blouse OF

for any afternoon occasion.

by shaping the eyebrows into a

a suggestion Of pertness to
the petite face while the heavy
face needs a thicker eyebrow but
one that is perfectly groomed and

type the eyebrows should be very
long and narrow, dipping toward

Eyebrows which are very thick

WASHINGTON, Jan. 5. - The
broad investigation into submarines
beginning soon along lines proposed
by President Coolidge is expected
to focus the limelight on undersea
fighting craft as. never before,
probably bringing new legislation af-
fecting this type of vessel and the
men who risk their lives below the
sea.
The joint resolution for investiga-
ton of the S-4 disaster and sub
marine safety devices will be taken
up Friday by the House Rules Com
mittee and Saturday by the Senate
Naval Committee, it was announced
today by chairman of these COM
mittees.
Both committees are expected to
vote the resolution out the same
day, with passage shortly afterward,
SO that the end of the week should
see the close of congressional action.
President Coolidge is expected to
appoint the special commission of
two retired naval officers and three
civilian experts speedily, so they
may begin work Immediately.

Men Lived 62 Hours

By united Press
CHARLESTOWN NAVY YARD,
Jan. 5.-The six men trapped in
the torpedo room of the i'll fated
submarine Sd lived for sixty-two
hours, it was estimated today at
the naval inquiry into the disaster,
by Lieutenant Commander Frank
Worden, testifying today.
Previously Worden had expressed
the belief that the imprisoned men
survived eighty-six hours.
The disaster did not occur while
the submarine was on the regular
mile test course, Worden testified.
Worden, first witness at Wednes-
days opening session, resumed the
stand when the court reconvened
this morning.
He expressed the belief that the
collision between the coast guard
destroyer Paulding and the sub
mersible might have occurred as the
S-4 turned at the end of the test
course.
The sea was rather choppy on the
day of the collision, however, Wor-
den said, and white caps would af-
feet visibility.
A ship might sight a periscope at
a distance for 100 to 1900 yards if
the lookout knew what he was look
ing for, the witness testified.
Worden said the Paulding probably
did not have the submarine within
the range of visibility for more
than two minutes.

Preceding the resignation the
board voted to ask for budget of
$1,000 from the Community Fund

budget committee of the Community

Flower Mission board that they

it included the work of visiting poor
families. That work is being taken
