HOOVER NOT TO
PUSH ACTION ON
ROOTS FORMULA

PALO ALTO, Calf, Nov. 13. U.P)
President Hoover probably will
refrain from pushing American ad-
herencc to the world court upon
the senate at the coming short ses-
siol Of congress, it was learned to-
day on high authority.
The root formula may remain
indefinitely where it has rested for
eight yoarS-upon the desk OF the
vice president.
# it is forwarded to the senate,
IL will rot be accompanied by de-
mand for action at this session. ac-
cording to those in a position to
know. The President has no desire
TO tie up the governmental sup
ply bills or his employment and
business recovery program with a
senate field day on foreign rela-
tions. his friends say.
At present Republican authorities
are afraid the supply measures
may be delayed at the session op-
ening Dec. /. Under the constitu-
ton congress expires automatically
March T. Unless the government
appropriation measures are passed
by that date, Mr.. Hoover would be
forced TO call an extra session Of
the new congress- which ordinarily
would not meet until December
1881.
The new congress. elected lest
week, is so closely divided political
II that MI Hooyers friends would
regard 1t as a calamity if he should
te forced to call it into session be-
lore its regular time.
This situation is given as the
leason Why Mr. Hoover omitted
any promises about the court in

Successful Perfume
Is Hard to Create

An expert on perfumes states that
perfume should not be judged by the
scent obtained by smelling 1t in the
bottle. Some perfumes smell quite Diff
ferently when sampled this way and
when actually used, and in almost every
case the smell Of alcohol Is too strong
when smelled In the bottle. Nor, accord
ing to this expert, should a perfume be
judged merely by the odor 1t gives for
the first few hours. The finest per-
fumes retain their fresh aroma until
the last scent is discernible, while in
cruder perfumes, made by less expert
perfumers, the desirable aroma evapo.
rates, leaving base that is different
or even unpleasant.
. There is a certain aura Of unpleas-
antness about some women who habitu-
ally use much perfume and this I am
sure Is because of the unpleasant smell
Of musk or an1bergris or whatever 1t Ia
that remains after the sweet scent Of
their perfume has gone. And because
Of this unpleasant sort of afterglow
think 1t Is well always to use perfume
directly on the skin or as a scent for
the handkerchief and not to spray 1t
about SO that it fingers on clothes and
hangings that are not to be washed
Few persons not in the perfume
business have any idea of the difficulty
involved in creating really satisfactory
perfume, and the perfume artist who
succeeds, sometimes after years of hard
work, in making blend of scents that
meets with final approval may well feel
that his life work has been crowned
with success.
Hundreds of perfumes are created
and tried out to one that Is finally
used. and of the many that are put on
the market only few meet with real
success.
These facts ought to be borne in mind
by women who have an idea that they
want to make their own perfumes. One
woman boasts of the fact that she
does this, though what she means is
that she mixes various perfumes all
ready made and adds certain crude
extracts until she gets something that
usually smells good deal worse than
any Of the single ingredients.

Summer evening dresses were never
more charming, more tempting and for
tunately seldom less expensive. Even
the supposedly expensive shops are show
ing clever little evening dresses at O
half or a, third the s. price tnss was rs

about because women now insist on hAv-
ing as varied an assortment OF wearable
evening dresses as of afternoon dresses
and are less willing to pay high price
for them than they were in day when
one or two new evening dresses were
all that most women expected to have
each season.
quite frequently the simpler evening
dresses are the things that the bride
chooses to make herself, and while styles
are somewhat more complicated now
greater fullness and increased length
makes matters easier rather than more
dificult for the home dressmaker. For
the informal Summer evening dress
there are printed cotton voiles and or
CANDIES that are somewhat less expen-
sive than the chiffon silk wolfe lace and
other evening materials.

of honor for Spring and Summer, IL
Ia pique. To wear with the tailored
suit of cloth or linen there are sleeve
less piQue blouses or vestees, and some
Of the suits show pipings Of pique at
cuffs and collar line. Usually white
pique Is chosen, and 1t Is smartest for
the serge or sharkskin suit, but for the
suit of wool crepe or Of silk there Is
fine silk pique, white or in one OF the
light. dusty pastel tones-blue, pink or
yellow.
When o white cotton pique vestee or
blouse Is worn there should be button
hole flower of the same material. and
sometimes the effect is carried through
by means of narrow white betting ribbon
trimming the hat, which should be Of
the same color as the suit.
Larger flowers made from silk pieue
are sometimes used on evening dresses,
and there are many interesting day
time buttonhole bouquets showing
flowers made from colored cotton pique.

New Fashions in STOCKINGS

the dull silken beauty of her Crepe
finish stockings. Under longer skirts
they have an astonishingly ladylike
quality that makes some of the high
sheen silks seem positively common!
II you have an eye for new things,
you have probably noticed the new
'Guildmode seamless stockings that q
lot OF firms are getting out, shaped and
roomy as full-fashioned stocking, yet
carrying the idea In their seamlessness
that the girl wearing them is wearing
no stockings at all. II you are a blonde,
match up your fair skin in natural
tones; and If you are brunette, by all
means pick the dusky sunburn shades.
To get the most out of seamless stock
ings, they must be your skins tone.
If you want to be real ultra this
Spring, try out the pastel-colored stock
ings. When you exactly match up that
seaweed green taffeta frock with q pair
OF seaweed green stockings, it's o
knockout. You can get them In all the
pinks, greens, blues, layenders, yellows
and off-whites that you have in party
dresses And you can get them navy
blue. purple, red, tawny yellow and
other sports colors, too.
For afternoon wear, with frocks or
suits, you should give the new French
open-work clock the once-over. 1t has
suave and dainty beauty In 1t.
For sports wear, you should nave some
of the striped, checked, dotted or lined
Isle stockings. They are very sportive
In their patterns and extremely effec-
tive under new tweeds. And, OF course
for tennis, golf or any active partici-
pant sports wear, don't forget those
little sox that slip over other stock
ings or can be worn on the bare leg.
As for color for general wear, you
will discover that the darker tones are
preferable to light ones. New bluei

Good Grooming Is
Worth Much Care

"Bien soigne" are words that the
French use to describe the woman who
habitually looks well cared for. In fact,
"bien soigne" means just well cared for.
and our own phrase well groomed'
doesn't quite take its place because at
least well groomed" sounds rather Sc
we're. A horse may be well groomed,
and there is a subtle something about
a woman who Is "bien Soigne" that
doesn't in the least suggest the most
carefully groomed horse.
Besides, q woman may be well groom
ed today and not well groomed tomor-
row. To be "bien soigne" implies habit.
Hands cannot attain this charming
characteristic unless they are kept in
good condition, and hair must be regu-
larry brushed and cared for to merit
this distinction.
There are many women who never
seem to feel that 1t is worth while 10
spend time on their appearance unless
there is some incentive In the way Of q
party, an important interview or some
thing of the sort. And there are other
women who attend to all the little nice
ties of the toilet as much as q matter
OF course as when they brush their
teeth. II they were marooned alone on
desert island I imagine that these
truly "bien soigne" women would con-
cured as possible and 60 through the
little ritual Of caring for their COM
plexions as regularly as ever
Even If you frankly don't care very
much how you look when you are alone
and can't be convinced that 1t is i'm
portant to look your best for your hus-
band as for o dinner guest-you should
realize that you can't ever really look
your very best unless 1t is q habit to
do so.

TAR and away the most attractive
fashion Of all for strolling on the
beach, or playing the negligent lounger
on the sands, there Is the pajama. The
new ones are attractive to q degree and
come in all sorts of luxurious and smart
materials-moire, shantung, hand
blocked materials, and. of course, in the
durable and newly found pique and
printed cottons.
there are all types-generally coat and
trousers, your bathing suit top making
the blouse. These are smart, too, with
blouse to match, for 1t makes the
pajama complete in itself.
Just trousers that pull over the suit
are quite smart--wide legged ones, some
with flares and godets In the sides to
add to their already not uncomfortable
width. The more they flap and flop the
better they are. And the brighter they
are in color, the more fitting to the
general colorful theme of Summer sport.
You may accentuate as much as you
for the beach, and the more cleverly
you do so, just so much more outstand-
ing will you be.
II \ " X
FOR the last finishing touch to these
scintillating sand ensembles there
are the most charming accessories-all-
important and particularly delightful
when it comes to the beach. Brightly
painted wooden clogs with straps that
wind many times around the ankle, high
heeled rubber shoes, leather beach
sandals, and all in bright colors and
fascinating with the beach ensembles.
Bathing caps really have quite fair
this year. Have you seen the rubber
beret for the not-too-active swimmer?
Made like the fabric berets, they are
just as youthful and attractive. And for
the heavier plungers In the waters, skull
caps with chin straps are all quite at
tractively done, and are really becom-
ing. And from the looks of them they
are entirely serviceable.

to fall into this fashion.
dark blue bags have come into fashion.

ornamentation of these bags Is simple,
consisting of applied bands of leather
fiat loop handles on the envelopes, and
small clasps of metal and composition.
