Experience" Games

One of the most interesting
ways of bringing your party to a
close-iS to have an experience
game. After partners have been
chosen by pumpkin fortunes" or
some such game, line them up.
Have them pass before big table
or desk, at which one of the host
esses should be seated. Take
everything Of value (rings, money,
watches, etc., that they have on
their person. Give them one dime
(between them). Set a time limit
casually As minutes to an hour Is
the time allowed, have 1t under
stood that no two couples are to
go together, but each must get out
for themselves. The couple that
has the most interesting experience
on the dime given them will re-
ceive a prize. After experiences
have been relatetd, and valuableS
returned, refreshments should be

Betty the explanation that she had wanted very much some other beads that had been offered as a prize but that the little girl who won the contest of pinning the tail on the donkey had chosen them be- fore her own turn for choosing came. So, al a convenient moment, she just took the pearls that were lying about.
 Betty was told that she had done a dreadful, wicked thing. She was spanked and forbidden to go out to play for a whole week Then she was trotted over to her little friends house to make restitution.
 At this point her mother began to doubt her tactics. for Betty went with her head held high and the de- liant assertion that she hadn't done wrong. She should have had beads for her prize anyway.
 Parents are never so likely to make mistakes as when they are dealing with some childish theft. Betty needed only to have pointed out to her that no matter how much she wanted them. the pearls did not belong to her and that she must therefore quickly give them back
 The whole episode should have been treated as a mistake rather than crime. It needed only to be rectifed and forgotten.

Lavish Use Of Fur Lends Rich Elegance
 To Jean Patous Creations For Autumn
BY ROSETTE HARGROVE

Paris, Aug. 14-Jean Patou, whose personality, daring and genius were chiefly responsible for turning women throughout the world from the short. straight dresses and boyish figures which always clashed with his sensibilities, has in his latest collection made wo- man a creature of loveliness He has given her seductive curves, be- decked her in the richest furs and made her comfortable. dignified and joyous in her womanhood.
 The generous reception of his new models brought him vindica- tion. Unlike most rival Partisan couturiers, he raised the waistline slightly above normal ana shorten ed the m-fitting hipline with skirt fullness beginning slightly be- low the waistline Sports and in formal clothes remain highly prac- tical. well covering the knees. Af- ternoon dresses are inclined to sponsor dipping hens. Late after noon gowns are ankle-length, with short sleeves or TO sleeves. Eve ming gowns reach just the tip of the shoe, with the formal gowns given trains. All the models were emil nently wearable and designed to suit all types of women without eXaggeration, revealing the sound taste which has made Patou fa- nous.
 Two new colors attracted much attention. Astrakhan beige tinged with grey was best suited for after noon dresses. while "Patou green" delightful with a tinge of yellow, was widely adaptable and proved particularly stunning for the most formal evening gowns.
 Another feature was the lavish use of sables as trimmings, with ernine favored for new capelets. Fur and aigrette trimmed hats com pleted the luxurious effects. Again hardening back to old times. Patou introduced muffs as combination bags made of fur matching the trimmings. and detachable shoulder capelets.
 Afternoon trocku reatured lame tunics of varying lengths over cloth skirt hens, with accompanying coats mostly three quarters leneth sometimes longer. Nearly all formal coats for afternoon and eve ming were lined with the same ma terial as the dress, giving a pleas ing effect when the coat was thrown open, especially with flow cred brocaded satin, which was generously used. All tunics have fullness at the back, with the waist line normal.
 Evening wraps were long, eener- ally made 10 follow the lines of the gown. but some were medium length. notably one satin ensemble with a jacket lined with beaver. Many had heavy fox fur collars, and others fur-hemmed cape ef- fleets.
 Black remains the favorite for lete afternoon dresses, while a wide range Of colors are used for eve nlngs. with black and white the predominating touches Handmade lace was employed. especially for the more lavish afternoon dresses. In the dominion of sports, very few novelties were introduced, indicat- ing that outdoor costumes have be- come standardized. Short fur jack cts or vests were recommended for golf, with the skirts showing box rleated backs and beaver popular for sports trimmings, mainly scarfs.
 Only very few pajama cos tunes were shown, Patou dwelling chiefly Qn formal creations.

STANDARD BODIES

The modern craze for weight re- duction to conform to the artificial standard of the boyish form re- minds one of the tale about the bar oaric Russian czar.
 This tyrannical potentate desired 10 have corps of bodyguards of one standard height and so. as the tal3 goes,~he measured his recruits in a standard bed and those that were too short were stretched, while those that were too long were cut to size This fantastic tale well expresses the illogic of mass reduction in the ef- fort 10 conform to an alleged phys teal ideal.
 Science has long recognized that there are three dominant physical types of human beings. and many intermediate types. There is, for example, the long thin type, the short and squatty type, and the so- called average type. Then there are combinations which are hybrid or mixed types.
 These types of constitutions differ 1 radically from each other and make 1t relatively impossible to establish an average height and weight table which is applicable within narrow limits to any large number of indi- yiduals.
 Constitution and type must be taken into account whenever the ef- i fort is made to determine the ideal weight for any individual This in turn implies a careful examina tion before reduction is. undertaken. | To attempt marked reduction without this information is unwise and to measure ones self against the standard table is to follow the | practices of the Russian czar of OUT 1 tale.

While Reciting the Details of the Early Morning Happenings to Lil- lian, Madge is Puzzled by the Mention Of Edith EairfaN

Mention of Edith Fairfax.
 T won't go down into that din- ing room again for anything YOU could offer me" I told Lillian firm ly. when she had told me that must not telephone Helena Brixton so early and suggested my going down with her for q second cup of coffee.
 Why" she asked. then grlnned. "Old Phil didn't stage any public declaration, did he?"
 "Of course not" I retorted tartlN but I could not control a flush at the remembrance of his embrar- rassing furtive caress Of my hand.
 Well something's on the we'll known bean she said, and I was thankful that she had ignored the flush. And I'm not proud. Also l have chow money and taxi fare, Fly with me, dearest. to some other eating place far from Philip Nerjt- zen and his naughty ways. It won't take either Of US a minute to put on our wraps"
 fINJlbl- I HI tlilLlI
 I hesitated only for the fraction or a second. She was right ln say Irg l could do no telephoning be- fore nine o'clock, and I knew Of nothing that I wished more to do than to tell Lillian Of Philip Yer itzen's apparent change Of attitude toward Noel and Mary and to get her keen appraisal Of the situation.
 I'll be with you in minuto,' I said, and, indeed. 1t was little more when I was out in the hall again. She came from her own door q few seconds later. and threw up her hand in acknowledgment Of my superior dispatch.
 Do you want to go down the service elevator?" she gibed. "Old Fhil never takes that, to my cer- tain knowledge."
 Don't be absurd" I said. But if we meet hin"
 Dispose Of him with efficiency and dispatch" she finished. Don't worry. I'm the most effective little incinerator going
 But there was no sign of Mr. Veritzen either in the elevator or in the lobby and I joined Lillian in the taxicab with the feeling Of a truant escaped from school.
 Where shall We go2" she asked as the driver waited for directions,
 If you don't mind, I'd like to go near that florist-you, knoU''-I named the man I wished to see about the decorations for the party, Then at nine o'clock I can go in to see him"
 All right. Efficiency Edgar" she laughed. As il SO happens, there's the spiffiest coffee house with the best food very near there Other wise you'd roam farther aheld. for I'm ravenous, and I crave nothing but the best. I'm sure youll like the place

 Questioning brought forth from
