There Are Wraps-and Wraps
By MnifedANery

TT any of US thought we could
take about four yards Of
N something and, by a mere
twist Of the wrist, make a charm
ing evening wrap, we'd suddenly
stir ourselves. But it can be
done-I know, ] tried it, and it's
simple to do, too. 1t can be q
wrap for Summer and used as q
scarf in Winter-to keep off
drafts, not blasts, Of course.
Two yards Of heavy georgette
are required for the wrap and
two and three-eights yards Of
satin or crepe for the border.
Cutting out consists of cutting
the two lower corners 50 that
they won't hang too long. Split
the border material in four
length-wise strips. This viii make
a double border, with mitered
corners around the wrap, and
will leave some for decoration.
The decoration consists Of
three very angular flowers with
straight stems and attendant
leaves. For the flowers cut six
long ~triangles six inches by three
and for the leaves made Is
smaller triangles about three in
ches by two. Arrange the flow

made with shorts instead OF
trousers. These resemble two
piece undertakings of the athletic
type, are sleeveless and comfort
able and combine a plain cotton
fabric with a small print, gay in
color.
A present day necessity Is the
exercise suit quite different
from the usual sort of rehearsal
jumpers. One smart model COM
prises a tuck-in blouse of white
cotton with trunks in a bright
color or black, which also trims
the sleeveless blouse.
The male sex ~applauds the pa
lama vogue for resort and beach
wear, hailing it as not unfem-
mime, but intensely striking, espe-
cially when in somewhat gor-
geously colored and luxurious
silks. Picturesque models are
now shown in the shops at un-
usually moderate prices and the
most effective ones combine plain
colored trousers with white or
light-toned tailored or frilly
blouses and short coats of gay
prints such as checked or figured
designs. Silk crepe and satin r
favored materials for these three
piece pajama ensembles. equally
as nice for lounging as for weas
in the public eye.
Dormitory pajamas for the
school girl for evenings of study
or lounging now are made all IN
one piece and are sleeveless,
with an accompanying jacket.
A pajama suit. a little too
luxurious for the school girl, but
appropriate for the older woman
or young debutante, is illustrated
here. This is smart for very in
formal lounging and comfortable
for those women who use pa
jamas only for the more prac-
teal purpose of sleeping. 1t Is
fashioned Of ivory-colored satin
back crepe with insets of ecru
Venetian lace. The trousers are
gathered into lace inserts which
fit snugly at the ankles and are
buttoned with tiny crepe-covered
buttons.

or oil Of lavender may be blended
with the finished grease rouge.
Il should then be placed In a liz
tie glass jar and kept in a cool
place for twenty-four hours until
it has entirely set.
Now about the shades Of rouge
for the different hours Of the
day. The morning rouge should
Be an in-between shade, that In.
one not ~ deep as that used for
evening and just a trifle darker
than that used for street wear.
This in-between rouge has proved
the most satisfactory. although
you may find that the deeper or
even the lighter tint best suits
your individual needs. You
know the color of the frock often
catches and reflects peculiar
lights so that the most ~flattering
shade of rouge should be de-
termined by the froek one Is
wearing.
However. II I get too compli-
Gated. you will begin to think
that the blending of the rouge
had best be left to a more expert
enced person, but ! assure you
it. such a simple matter that once
you have compounded your own
you won't hesitate to make the
next supply and to experiment q
bit more with it. For example.
if you have a red frock in your
present wardrobe. the next ven
ture into rouge making you'll
want to leave some Of il very
light. This should De used when
the red dres is worn, because the
red reflected from the frock
naturally will heighten your col
oring.
And now that I've told you
how to make your own rouge
I'll tell you how to place It on
your face 50 that the most fat
tering results may be gained.
II the face Is round and full,
the rouge should be placed well
towards the front of the face or
near the nose, and q bit higher
than Is attractive on the thin face
type. If, however, the face -
long and thin, the color should
be placed well down on the
cheeks and a little more back to-
wards the ears than is advisable
on the round faced type.
A touch Of rouge added to the
chin of the long face win make
the face appear shorter, thus
more rounded and youthful.
However, chin rouge should be
applied with the same delicacy as
that used when applying cheek
rouge and no definite line of be-
ginning or end should show to
mar the perfect blending OF
rouge that il necessary to beauty.

My Secrets
Of Charm
BY Josephine Huddleston

~ ECAUSE of the large variety
- of shades of rouges offered
by our very capable manu-
facurers Of cosmetics, home
made tints were forsaken long
ago in favor of those that came
already prepared. Now, how
ever. with feminine interests
turned towards blending and har-
monizing the complexion with
ones frocks and accessories, it
is essential that the careful wo-
man do some delicate experiment
tation with her rouge if she is to
achieve the final state of beauty
perfection that has become the
goal Of thousands Of women.
With the blending of powders
to harmonic with the general
coloring of the complexion and
the mixing of shampoo soaps and
dye powders to eliminate gun
burned or streaked hair so that
the most lustrous and becoming
shade is found. What woman
won't thrill at the prospect of
having a special shade and mix
ture of rouge to complete the
perfect color ensemble?
Perhaps there is too much yell
low m your present rouge, or,
what il more likely at this partic-
ular season when the fashionable
sunhurned or tanned complexion
is an accomplished fact, a pro-
nounced yellowish tinge conflicts
with and so destroys the rich col
oring of your tan. Then, too, in
many cases and especially il ones
hair has been exposed to the
bright rays of the sun and is
therefore streaked with gold, the
usual rouge of two months ago
more than likely is decidedly out
of tone, and this throws the en-
tire color scheme of the complex
ion off key.
At one time homemade los
metics were the only ones used,
because "nice women" popularity
were supposed to take what col
loring nature gave them and let

color values observed in daylight.
AS colors become tricky, taking
on many different tones under
strong electric lights, one should
experiment carefully with the
coloring used in the rouge and
after trying out the various pos
sible tones that can be used one
soon will find the perfect blend
for all occasions.
Preparing this exquisite rouge
requires but a few minutes and
the amount made from the fol-
lowing formula will last for
months. Then, too, al the sea
sons change and the complexion
again takes on a more delicate
pink and white tone, the rouge
may be weakened so that il will
blend perfectly with the new
complexion.
The matter Of seeming this
particular rouge is indeed fas-
cinating, as some perfectly gor-
geous odors can be had by mix
ing n or more of your favorite
perfumes, as is used in this
grease rouge; oil scents.
Cocoa butter is used for the
foundation of this rouge, and the
following formula calls for two
tablespoonfuls of finely shaved
cocoa butter to be placed in an
enamel basin and melted over a
very slow fire. Just before it
has entirely melted, however, ten
drops Of sweet almond oil should
be added.
Because everyone hasn't a scale
for measuring such small quaint
ties, I'm going to depend upon all
of. you to use discretion in adding
the carmine. Carmine is a pow

It 20 at that. Then, too, fem
mine physical beauty was re-
uuired only to lure the strong
male TO the altar. That import
ant feat accomplished, the sue
cessful woman rested on her
laurels.
Today, however, economic and
social competition is so keen that
the successfully married woman
IS IS grateful for the vast devel-
opement in beauty culture as Is
our modern maiden.
The new and vital interest IN
feminine beauty has made 1t
necessary for all cosmetics to I'M
dergo as many as four and hve
purity and safety tests, so that
now one may be assured that
good quality ingredients are used
in the manufacture of established
beauty preparations.
Needless to say, however, home
made preparations may be COM
pounded for less than half the
cost of those already prepared.
Extra work is required, but then
there is an extra thrill to having a
line of cosmetics, ones very own,
knowing full we'll that perhaps
not another woman in the world
possesses exactly the same prep
arations.
Another advantage in making
ones own rouge is that two or
three shades may be made at the
same time with very little extra
work. Thus we may have a rouge
for morning, another for outdoor
or sports wear and still another
for evening when artificial lights
demand a different shade if the
complexion is to retain the same

Ton, Win From Goodyear

The Over the Top baseball team succeeded in mastering Lavallee s pitching in a ten inning game with Goodyear af North GrosvenoTdaie Sunday. The Grosvenordale baker line up bounced twelve safe hits off the visitors pitching. Fast fielding plays by the visitors sent the game into extra innings the winning run coming in the tenth.
 The visitors although outhit twelve to four put up game fight behind Laval ee. "Slim" Coderre in hold ing the Goodyear hitters to four hits, was not given very good support by his teammates and the misplays each time were costly and enabled the visitors Go cross the rubber three times. "Ted" Johnson was a hitting powerhcuse getting three hits for a total of five bases. In his last time at bat the first sacker, hit terrific drive that sailed far over the river in right field. The ball was foul and one of the longest drives in the his- tory of the local ball park. Next in the hitting was Captain Ravenelle who hit two. one being for extra bases. Cooler" Nelson also hit the ball hard
 The fielding feature cf the game was "Gumshoe" Waselewski's specta- euIar catch of w. Tetreault's long drive that was headed for the dist ance of the park. The youngster, after 'ong run got within reach of the ball and retired the side.
 K. Ravenelle playing short made a fine play of Billings hopper
 The locals made five errors behind Coderre. Fer the visitors, Freechette at one time an Eastern League play CT and W Tetreault were the out standing figures. each contributing some fine plays that held down the baker team on the base lines.

Now all debate about Gasoline Quality is settled
It's Here To-day Socony Special plus Ethyl

TWO YEARS ago we introduced Il Socony Special--a superior high compression gasoline. Thousands of motorists discovered that it was far better than other gasolines, and gladly paid a premium for 1t.
 The sales mounted. Perhaps we should have been satisfied, but we were not. We said: "Is there anything that we can possibly do to make Socony Special still betterir
 There was one thing. We could add Ethyl fluid to it.
 Ethyl fluid is an anti-knock prepara- tion that makes any gasoline better. Even poor gasoline can be given "zero knock-rating" if enough Ethyl fluid is added. But poor gasoline with zero knock-rating is still poor gasoline.
 Never before in New York and New England has Ethyl fluid been added to gasoline of Socony Special quality. We decided-at extra cost to ourselves, but no extra cost to you-to do what had
