Wig Is It?

All of us have had an infinite
number of similar experiences or
listened in on women cauterizing
some one for STEPPING in front of
them on ticket line, Off getting
the clerks attention though they
had waited longest, etc.
Are women such Jealous fighters
for their rights" because of I'M
familiarity with relationships other
than those in the inner home cir
Gle? Is it inexperience that prompts

Toes SteDDed On

Women as a class have a little
of holding out for what they dig
nifedly call their rights" with an
insistence that often amazes the
most tenacious male. A man will
have both feet stepped upon be-
fore making an cutlery, but wom-
an is so afraid that one littla
toe will be stepped upon that she
makes her outcry long before the
stepping is done.
Who has failed to observe the
martyrdom of men who when
out with their women folks" are
forced to stand by silently or aid
and abet said women folks" out
breaks against real or fancied
treaders on their tootsie-wootsies?

DebutanteS Reign

| OeDuJanCeS SJlll mold the Tort.
Most of the formal Christmas and
New Year entertainments are theirs.
At charity ball at Pierre's, among
the most beautiful debS was Mil
licent Rogers little cousin, Cynthia
Pratt, who looks great deal like
the striking Mrs. Artura Ramos. Her
vivacity had an admirable foil in
her demure perriwinkle blue taf-
feta frock.
Nathalie Laimbeer wore white
that same night. Lilias Kent a
lovely pink chiffon, and Louise Van
Allen a bouffsnt frock of pale blue
faille taffeta, all somewhat bout
FAINT and all long.
The vogue for browns for eve
ming seems on the wane. Bright
er tones liven the scenes under the
miStletoe nowadays. But Frances
Gilmore sponsored brown-a live
tone of medium brown, for a beau
tiful tulle gown with gold splash
ing through it in the form of tiny
threads. 1t had a sash of gold
tied pertly, like a child'S sash, at
the back of the waistline. Sashes,
by the way, are quite smart nova
days and doll up many a frock.
Embroidered Taffeta
White holds a prominent place in
the heart of young dancers. Mrs.
George B. st. George wore white
taffeta frock with Sprigs of dainty
flowers embroidered on it at the
Embassy Club the other night. Her
sister, Mrs. Fellowes Gordon, also
wore white, a f1lmy chiffon trimmed
with ostrich tips along the TERED
skirt and down the back which
floated gracefully as she danced.
Kay Comfy was striking in white
satin, with long side Grapes, and
jade earrings and jade green Slip
perS.
The peplum theme is pursued sue
cessfully in many a formal gown
this season. I saw Mrs. Charles
Reed in a most becoming deep rose
pink taffeta with a peplum and
crisp bow of the taffeta below a
normal waiStline.
Where JeweIry Fits In
Jewels, this winter, must have a
reason for their existence or be gen.
uine. Just glitter is no longer
enough. Mrs. James Deering, host
ess to a large party at the Embassy
Club, wore beautiful little jeweled
tree in diamonds, rubieS and sap
phires as a corSage on white MORE
gown. Mrs. Setan Porter and Mrs.
Douglas Page sponsored, respec-
lively, diamonds and pearls of
purest ray serene. Mrs. Page, by
the way, is one New Yorker who
clings to the strictly boyish bob,
straight bangs and all.
Another evening at the same
smart place, Mrs. Jorge Andre wore
one of the smartest of this seasons
gowns, a svelt beige satin with
mauve touches, such as facing for

had this experience on my va
cation. The boat stopped at that
little jewel of the Great Lakes,
Mackinac Island. There was just
time for q drive through the pine
woods in one of the picturesque
horse and buggy gigs which are
the only vehicles allowed upon the
island.
Our particular gig was even
furnier than the others, for the
middle seat on which our party
of three sat, had to be folded
back before those in the rear seat
could alight. Frequent stops we're
made at various points of interest.
Having seen the sights ourselves
several times before, at each halt,
we merely alighted so that the
rear seat party could get out, wait
ed for heir return to the back
seat, got in ourselves and drove
on until the performance was re-
peated.

Milk. too. gives margarine much OF
its favor Scientists Of the U 5 De-
oartraenr OF Agriculture declare that
the flavor of butter is not due TO the
butter fats. but to the favoring SUD-
stances formed in the ripening or
souring Of the milk or cream from
which II is made. These Identical
substances give the flavor to mar
garine which even connoisseurs ma

No other food product the housewife

While the prejudices Of decade

trails far behind Europe in the con-

There is tapestry " romance In
ths story of how many of our COM
monplace food products originated.
Many foods used daily in millions Of
American kitchens were born In the
stress Of wars involving the fate o:
empires. Beet sugar. for instance. wa
first made commercially possible by
Napoleon in his efforts TO break tfS
English naval blockade strangling
France. Condensed milk was first lea
TO the Union soldiers In the Civ,Q
War. Soya beans and bean oil became
standard commodities In the Russo
japanese war when the soldiers Of the
Mikado learned OF their nutrittveI
qualities.
One OF the most romantic food tales
concerns the discovery Of margarine.
Napoleon III in his disastrous war
with the Prussians was responsible
for the discovery OF this product now
common In millions OF households.
The siege of Paris by the Prusstan
hosts in 1870 threatened famine TO
the city. Cattle which the French
army had conscripted from the
