 Liane laughed. What was it.? Did she refuse to worry"
 T don't know what she said but there's a coolness between them. Mrs Amberton admitted to me that her sister lacked tact" There was silence for a few min utes while Liane continued to re- gard the landscape with languid eyes.

Better Show Season
 at FOx-Palace
Starts Aug 30 With Great est Lineup of Pictures
 in Theater's History

The Fox-Poli Palace theater an- nounces a "Better Show Season. to start officially August 30, and to continue at an even and steady pace throughout the fall, winter and spring, and continue even then into the new crop of stars and pie lures that will be ready for harvest at that time. That Better Show Season. is not to be construed as d mere pretty combination of words Is evidenced by the list of unusual pictures scheduled for showing at the Fox-Poli Palace theater and the reasons given for "Better Show Season" at this time. The announcement contin. ues:
 The motion picture industry, ir- respective of brands or trademarks stands at last on two firm feet mechanically and mentally sound, through the support of engineering skill from a technical sense and the introduction of real talent, new directorial genius and works from the pens of competent au- thors and playwrights. The dras- tic change in the industry cannot be laid with gratitude at the door of any one or set of producers, but to the forced conditions of the sound era. The baby-faced hero inc, who could smile and did not need to talk in the silent. went the way with her equally dumb hero. The author, who wrote his script as he staggered through, followed them; and the scatter brained au- thor, who drew his plots from thin air or the aftermath of a good old fashioned nightmare, has packed his typewriter and fled to parts unknown.
 "Talkies' did not ask for a change. They demanded 1t. First, the experimental stages, with en- gineers striving to take the "squeaks" and "squawks" out of the story. Then real talent became necessary, but in order to get real talent 10 pay off in "the black 1t meant better stories, more plausi- ble plots and the ultimate con- tracting of real authors and real playwrights. For more than year every studio has been working feverishly 10 announce the best product of the year; and that they have all succeeded to some ap- preciable measure is evidenced in

INTO THE EEPs OF SPACE

VII Asleep at the Controls! (The story so far: Four men, a woman, a boy and a girl have boarded a rocket, and are atteInpt- ing to reach the distant planet Pluto. They have already passed by the planet Mars and Jupltcr.) .
 Roger Dunn, veteran American pilot, was at the controls of the "Spirit of Freedom" He was only g years of age, but he had won fame for his work in guiding rockets to various planets.
 Professor Richardson entered the control room.
 "Everything going all right?" he The Professor fell asleep ut the controls.
 "Yes, we're speeding toward the goal. I doubt that we have yet reached the speed of light, but we are certainly travelling at a merry clip"
 well, keep the good ship to her course for half an hour. l shall go to the dining-room and have :. bite to eat. Then you can dine ana take A few hours sleep while l handle the controls" , "Very good" replied the pilot,
 When the professor returned Dunn said to him:
 I've have now passed saturn, and the rest of the journey Will not require many hours longer. when we come within 10,00O,00O miles of Pluto, ring for me and l shall return to take charge of the land ing" IA,
 Have 8 good sleep after you eat" said the professor.
 Alone with his thoughts and the controls of the giant rocket, Fro lessor Richardson let his mind dwell on the wonders man haa achieve with rockets since the time, almost HOO years betore' when the first rocket trip had been made across the Atlantic. People had given up the use of airplanes about 1000 years before, except for short trips. Airplanes had prov ed SO much slower than rockets that people had stopped usihs them for trips across the oceans.
 The professor had been extreme, ,v busy before the takeoff, ana hao not slept for 36 hours. Instead or telling Dunn to snatch few hours of slumber, he should have take. rest himself. He believed, however that he could manage 10 keep awake few hours longer.

 Watch out for the following things in the baby, not to antici- pate trouble but merely to know the signs when he is below par. If his skin is hot and his face 1 flushed he may have a touch of fever-that is, if he is hot all over, not merely his hands and feet. His temperature should be taken. hope you have that thermometer 1 advise you to get and have learned how to reae 1t. If he is unusually restless, irri- table or drowsy, if he cries very much and appears to want to be let alone, keep an eye on him. Ii may be nothing, it may be some not show unusual signs like these unless they are bit under the weather. A Sign of Illness
 A baby who vonits, or returns his food, as the doctors say now, must be i'll. However, do no con fuse this with splitting up or ha- bitual vomiting after feedings known as reorganization. That happens to the healthiest babies. 1t makes them sour and uncom- fortable, but is is not illness. Any other type of vomiting should be looked into at once.
 If movements are suddenly in- creased in number and watery, or markedly different in color and consistency, there is a digestive | disturbance, be sure. Summer complaint in babies takes this form. 1 should certainly call the doctor, but if you live too far away to have him see the baby soon after trouble starts, scald all milk used in the baby's food in the interval; reduce the babys | feedings and if not too young a | baby, substitute orange e-albumer | water for some of his meals. This is made by squeezing the clear white of a fresh egg through a sterilized napkin or piece of linen adding the strained juice of ar orange and putting both into 3 half pint of cool boiled water Mix 1t up well and give it to him in his bottle. Perhaps he wont take much, but that is all right too.
 | Telephones are Godsends in Esummer where cottagers are toe 1 often beyond quick medical aid Don't hesitate to use the phone (there is generally one year) and get expert advice from good doctor. This has save many a baby who could not be seen by d physician until the next day. Or go and get your car or neigh bor's car and bring the doctor yourself. Don't wait thinking thai the baby will be better, particu- larly if you don't want to alarm any one unnecessarily, but baby upsets in summer usually need prompt treatment and, delays sometimes are serious.
 | 1 shouldn't get panicky about the baby, but I should watch him That has never hurt anybody yet sick or well.
 Refusal of food.> if kept up more than ordinary crying, pain cold in the head, any rash with fever, or convulsive twitching oi arms and legs, mean that he is not we'll and needs a doctor.
 In the mfantime, when the baby is well, keep him so by having everything scrupulously clean bottles, nipples, milk, clothes everything that touches him. KeeI him as cool as possible throuRf the day, and watch these trick! cool August nights. See that h' is covered when the breeze comes up, and away from a draft.

THE LAWYERS SECRET AND IT PAYS TO ADVERTISE
 AT NEW GARDEN

Drama, neither stark nor terrify- ing, but intensely real, human and emotionally exciting, came to the New Garden theater screen yester- day for d three day stay. It IS contained in The Lawyers Secret" in which an excellent and ali-star cast, headed by Give Brook, Charles Rogers and Rich ard Arlen. brings to life tense complication of modern-day living.
 The vividness of "The Lawyers Secret is intensified by the intelli- gent presentation of its drama. It's audiences are made to feel it's vital significance for each one of them. Its web of circumstances might wind itself around any unthinkable individual. just as 1t winds, in the picture, around Brook, the suave lawyer; Rogers, the weaklinS playboy; Arlen. the reckless young sailor.
 Skeets Gallagher, that sterling comedian of Honey" Lets Go Native" Love Among the Mil lionaires'' and many other laugh riot pictures, will be seen and heard in his latest-"1t Pays to Advertise" also on this bill. Good entertaining shorts round out a splendid bill. The gift fci ladies tomorrow will be pyrn' Il dresser ware and on Wedre: china dinner ware.

Give beauty your ears! She has some chaiIn secrets that are center ing aroug | them, which she can't get across if you insist on keeping them buried under your red or blac kor brown or yellow locks.
 Ears are definitely back in the style picture again. The clustering of curls behind the ear leaves the ear itself pretty much exposed for anything tl.at yo uwant to tell it to-day.
 If your ears are too large let some of your hair droop across them. You may be able to make them mysterious and intriguing if you are sdillful enough. But don't bury your ears under your hair. That custom is gone.
 The lobe of the ear is part of your facinl ensemble and belongs in the picture.
 To inc, case its attractiveness use torch Of rouge on the lobe of the ear. Make sure that 1t tones with your cherk rouge.
 See that this rouge is blended properly. Otherwise it may look as thougn you accidentally touch ed the lo1e with a finger that you had used .n working in cream rouge on your cheeks Or lips.
 If you, ears annoy you in any way----if :here is any sort of skin condition that makes them unat- tractive-oy all means consult a competen. physician. You may use aids on your hands and even on your rose, but never on your ears. They require the attention of special.s..
 The custom of wearing earrings is an old md primitive one. Every noce in 80 often 1t comes In again. It is always more pleasing to see this form of decoration when the ear itself shows than when 1t kdoesn't Some sizes of ears do not look well Tn earrings. Other faces have a col tour that isn't adapted to them. You must study your own problem adm decide if you can, or cannot wear earrings. and if you can, which type will do things for you.
 | Remen Ter that even an earring is suppoG. I to assist with the set ting that ,hows you off. You arc not a display window for showing off ornaments.
 | Heavy earrings are unwise, al. ways, as trey pull down the Soft lobes of your ears in a manner that is decidedly ugly.

The gracious dignity of the Georgian rooms Is calling for more formality in hangings ~and wall coverings. The simple rusticity of the Provincial furniture and fur
 nishings is not in keeping with
 stately Georgian. nor with its compatriot in Germany Beider-
 meier furniture. This, as Nancy learned. few weeks ago is gain ing in popularity, especially in
 families where the ancestry is German. The English families veer toward the Georgian. Direc- toire furniture and rooms are com- ing in also. The Directoire repre- sents the French influence. It has something fthe classicism of the Greeks. at least in so far as the draperies are concerned. Here, for instance, is a drapery which Nancy clipped for future use. It has the "swat4 which interior decorators are referring to so frequently. And the swag hangs in folds down the sides of the cur tain. The valance, which used to be fitted a few years ago, is now less restrained and hangs grace fully with slight droop or curve

 over the raspberry ice that Sud had ordered for dessert she pulled out Corrinne's letter for re-readiug. As she unfolded the pages Q new paragraph caught her eyes. Shd had left a few sheets in the envei- ope before. Now she read eagerlyE
 "Sue, I had this hunch of fool- ish chatter all ready to mail when I found out about your accident with Jean Brady. And to think I thought I had troubles. Are you sure you aren't hurt?
 "And right along with 1t learn ed that our brother had finally come to his senses and married Sarah. He did 1t unexpectedly, too. It seems to run in the family. But, Sue, you can't stay there alone. It's absurd. Why don't you come back and live with us until Jack comes back? Visit us, mean, 1t won't be very long.
 Harry thinks that you are q second cousin of the archangels anyway, and want you so much. Please, Sue!
 "Oh, by the way. saw Judge Thornton today. talked to him for minute-I decided to let bygones be bygones. When I asked about Jack he smiled a little. Then he said: I'm afraid that he's up against pretty tough proposition out in the west. He's dealing with some interruptions men. from what I can gather. The firm should have sent two men. not one, on the case He really seemed worried. Is the case So dangerous, Sue?"
 Dangerous! Was 1t something concerning that, which Jack had wanted to tell her, Sue wondered. | But she had seen Jacks picture in the paper. had seen him on the screen. Dangerous. She remem- bered the strange sensation. almost psychic, that she had when the movie fadeout had taken Jack away.

 Harry told me how sorry he was that had accidentally upset the blooming wafie batter. Inn agine! After my malice afore- thought! But he was so nice about it I couldn't pretend that 1t was an accident. I told him l did 1t on purpose. And then, Sue, he very calmly told me that hehad known it all the time.

In a room which needs space and has windows too close together Nancy found decorator would in crease the apparent size by the use of wooden scalloped valance and mirror panel.
 The effect is gained by extend ing the curved wooden valenc2 across the two adjoining windows and the intervening space as we'll In the narrow space between win dows is put up mirror. A table set between the windows can have a tole vase with flowers. These are reflected in the mirror. The hangings are long, too long for cleanliness but not bit too long for style.
