cen shipping board vessels which
cost s3O,OOO,OOO to build during the

NEW YORK, July 3l.-Fresh
scandalS-or suspicious Of scandals
rose today 10 swell the growing
record OF graft and corruption in
the nations greatest city.
A judge. convicted Of mail fraud
in the $500, 900 failure of the Co
lumbia Finance Corporation, had
received a six-year sentence in At
fanta penitentiary and some of his
associates had been sentenced to
lesser terms.
The judge, w. Bernard Vause,
vas only one of several jurists in
greater New York TO step out
recently in actual disgrace. or be-
meath heavy suspicion for dealings.
Vause's sentence was perhaps the
outstanding development in the
last twenty-four hours in connec-
ton with graft revelations. which
have grown constantly in the last
two years.
Open Unloading Liquor
The federal government today is
taking a hand in theStrange rum
running case In which a group of
runners used a municipal garbage
scoW TO convey a thousand cases of
choice Bourbon. II seemed to many
that connivance with municipal
government authorities must have
been INDUCED.
The runners we're open in their
work Of loading the Scow with
liquor after city garbage had been
dumped at sea, and the craft was
brought in for unloading within the
shadow of the Brooklyn bridge, and
scarcely a stones throw from the
municipal building.
The government proposed TO find
out how this novel running was
arranged and whether the higher
ups" winked at the procedure.
Scores Shaking Down"
United States Attorney Tuttle
demanded arrest of Martin j. Healy,
a Tammany district leader, hoping
thereby to learn something of an
alleged receipt of $4,000 by Healy
when George F. Ewald-who re-
signed under pressure-became a
city magistrate.
Mayor Walker, until recently,
silent under a barrage of attacks,
has read a riot act to the markets
and weights departments and has
warned that these branches might
be abolished unless more efficiency
is forthcoming. He let employees
know he would not tolerate any
shaking down" of merchants and
peddlers or permit any trace of
graft in the departments.

NANCY PACE
Out-of-Door Decorating
Grows in Favor.
RY FLORENCE Ia GANKE.

The city in which the Page family
lived was proud Of its community
spirit. Community chest raising was
taken as Q matter of course. So were
community out-of-door concerts in the
Summer time, community pageants in
the parks and community Christmas
celebrations. The idea of decorating
the grounds and the exterior Of homes
for the holidays was now being &C.
cepted e. q matter of course.
The new lighting effects obtained by
strings Of beautifully colored lights
made the city glow by night.
Trees, shrubs, bushes, doorways,
windows all shone in the radiance of
Christmas lights. Then. too, there were
groups of community singers who went
from street to street singing Christmas
carols before the windows in which
there shene q lighted candle. All In
all, Christmas was in the air.
When it came to the decoration of
the house, Nancy and Peter voted for
some rather formal decoration. Gar
lands of ground pine, tubs with bay
and wreaths of out-of-door woodsy
stuff seemed in the best Of taste to
them.
One wreath was made of kumouats,

Scarf Becomes a Necessity
BY MARY MARSHALL

the neck at the front, crossed ct the
back with the ends tied ascot fashion
at the front. For your black after
noon suit or coat you should have O
chiffon scarf which may be white with
fine lace trimming or may show white
or colored figures on light back
ground. This Is usually square In
shape and is worn folded into o triangle
and tied at one side.
If you are making any new dresses
Of any sort it will be well worth while
to get enough of the material to make
a matching scarf, which may be square,
triangular or long and narrow. Some
Of the most practical of the new silk
Scarfs are made in the form Of q tube.
For this YOU will need piece of silk
about Is inches wide and q yard and
q quarter long. Fold it over in the
center from end to end and seam up
as you would pillow case. Press It
lightly so you have a double scarf
about nine inches wide and yard
and q quarter long. The ends may be
turned in and stitched, or you may
finish them with band Of contrast
ing color.
Some of these new silk scarfs are
finished with short fringe of the ma
terial at the ends and sometimes bands
of contrasting material fringed at the
edges are applied. A scarf of this sort,
which you could copy at small expense,
Is shown in todayS sketch.

What Do You Weight

It is very difficult to know how much
you should weigh. Peters, the dietician,
gave a very good rule some years ago.
1t is as follows:
Measure yourself for your exact height
when standing barefoot. Multiply the
number of inches over 5 feet by 5h
and then add 10. For an example
If you are S feet inches. Two multi
piled by 51a Is IL, add this to Ito and
yeu should weigh 12l pounds.
If you happen to be exactly 5 feet,
then your ideal weight is ITO. But sup
pose you are an inch under, that is
feet II inches. In that case, you multi
ply the number of inches under 5 by
5Ia and substraet them from ITO. The
girl of feet IL inches should weigh
(51z times 1 being a simple sum- ex-
aetly 1041a pounds.
Now this, let me add, Is your ideal
weight. But these days we all fall short
of our ideal weights, or try to. Insur-
ance tables, 1t seems to me, we're COM
piled in day Of huskier men and wom-
en-, for the number of pounds people
should weigh at various ages, according
to the tables, always astonish me. Doc
tors will tell you that YOU can come
within a 10-pound radius of the insur-
ance ideal and still be healthy and good
looking.
Well. allowing for the generosity OF
tables and doctors estimates, there are
still women who are heavy-boned OF
light-boned; some can stand a lot OF
fat without showing it; others cannot
add a pound without seeming heavy
and thick of figure. Try the rule given
above. Weigh yourself without clothes
on, and mark the weight down on Q
card, with the date, and keep the card
for reference. In no other way can you
tell whether you are gaining or losing
And weigh yourself always under
