Washington Fashions
BY Wilma La Vile

One of the smartest color
combinations of the season is
used in this frock. brown and
white. Brown is a leading
spring color, and when used
with white for contrast is ex-
tremely fashionable. It's a color
combination that is becoming
to almost every type. too, for
the white neutralizes the brown.
Flattering Pleats
There's something irrepressi-
bly, perky and gay about this
brown and white print frock
we've sketched today, from the
unusual use Of orange, white
and chartreuse ribbon at the
cowl neckline and belt, to the
old-fashioned pleated flounce
that encircles the hips and the
bottom of the skirt. That pep
lum business of pleats is an
other very smart idea, for it
comes at just the psychological
part of the figure that often
needs kindly bit of disguise.
This pleating theme is repeated
in the comfortably short sleeves.
Accessory Possibilities
1t will be amusing to choose
accessories for this frock too.
For instance you might ear a
white hat and gloves and some
Of those good looking linen
shoes that will soon appear on
F Street; the pocket book could
be white too. Or you could
use brown hat and glove and
shoes, or a chartreuSe hat with
chamois gloves and light col
ored shoes. But no matter
what accessories you choose,
you'll have a smart looking
outfit in this dress.

Observation-Disclosures
BEFORE ENTERING SCHOOL
Maryland State School Law Re.
quires Treatment Against
Smallpox

While you are planning for Bobby
and Betty to enter school in Septem-
Der with the rest of the frst-graders,
remember that they must be vacci-
mated against smallpox-if that has
not already been attended to-before
they can be enrolled in any public
school in the State.
Last year, one out of every two of
the white children and two out of every
three Of the colored, who were old
enought to go to school, and who
were examined at the child health
conferences held throughout the coun-
ties during the summer, in prepare
ton for their admission into school,
were found to be unprotected against
smallpox. The proportion of unvac-
cinated children attending this years
child health conferences, has been
equally large.
In reminding parents of the State
law concerning vaccination, DR.. R. H.
Riley, Director of the State Depart
ment of Health, said: "The family
doctor is expected to vaccinate the
young children under his care, at any
time after the babies are a few
months old. Until the child is ready
to go to school the responsibility for
having him protected against small
pox rests with the parents. After that
it is shared by the teachers. The law
says:
emo teacher in any public school
in this State shall receive into such
school as a pupil any person who has
not been successfully vaccinated y
any teacher neglecting or refusing to
comply with the provisions of this
section shall on conviction thereof
be fined ten dollars for each
and every offense.'
Maryland has had practically a
clean slate with but one entry on it
so far as smallpox is concerned, for
over two years. During the last five
years, 45 cases have been reported to
the Bureau of Communicable Diseases
of the State Department of Health
5 in 1926; 9 in 1927; % in 1928; 8 in
1929 and one in 1881. The disease is
prevalent in other States and in many
countries abroad, and serious out
breaks are continually occurring in
places in which vaccination is not re-
quired. The weekly reports Of the U
S. Public Health Service show just
where the disease is appearing thru
out the world. During a single week
of the current summer-the week end
ing July 1860 cases were reported
!. from different parts of the United
States. You can estimate from this
the amount of smallpox in this coun-
try during an entire year. In 1929
38,432 cases were reported; in 1929
there were 41,705.
Smallpox is an unnecessary disease,
We have an effective weapon against
it in vaccination. Maryland's COM
parative freedom from it is due to
the way our people have cooperated
in the observance of the State vacci-
nation law and of course, we are de-
pending upon their continued coopera-
ton"

 By Elorepce Ea Csnke.
By Florence ra 0snke.

For the Lacey party the serving of refreshments was of the simplest, Instead of setting a large table at which all the guests were seated Mrs Lacey brought out her Sunday night supper trays. She had quite an assortment of these. They came in pastel shades and were finished with an enamel which was resistant to heat and moisture. Mrs Lacey did not have quite enough of these so she purchased some cooky sheets with the small, rim standing up about one-quarter inch on all sides. These she lacquered one color on the inside and another contrasting color on the outside. For each tray she had heavy white crepe paper doilies or tray cloths.
 Each guest went to the dining room when it was time for refresh ment. First came the tray, then the salads arranged individually, then large plate of rolled sand wiches and then the silver and the beverage. When the tray was filled it was carried into the living room. Here card tables and occasional tables had been arranged and lunch was eaten in the informal manner which seemed in keeping with Sa Patrick's day party.
