tractive styles in short evening
gloves for us to show them all.
Some Of the newest ones have
little bows on the back Of the
wrists: some have a tiny gore
with stitching, and some have
turn-back, all-around cuffs Of
self-material. The new length
or lack of it-gives free play
to designers ingenuity-and
they're making the most Of
their opportunities.
Bracelet Glove
The most original of all the
new designs we've seen is a slip
on glove with bracelet-quite
rigid, completely covered by the
top of the glove, and held in
place by gold or silver threads!
This d ecorative stitching is
worked diagonally around the
bracelet, and is even more effec-
tive than the sketch above in
the lower right-hand corner can
show. On white and black, the
thread is silver, and on beige it's
gold. You have a choice of kid
suede for about $5. or glace kid
for the least bit more. And how
glad you'll be to know this stun
ming little bracelet glove comes
in daytime shades as well as
those for evening wear.
Don't forget that gloves make
a welcome Christmas present.

A small inSurrection has oc-
CURED in the matter of evening
gloves-not equal to the sea-
sons revolution in headgear,
but kin to it just the same.
Perhaps it happened because
accessory fashions seemed a
little one-sided with all the
speculation being focused on
hats. AS a result, evening gloves
are getting a lot Of attention.
We're forced to give some
thought to the kind to wear be-
fore we appear at formal af-
fairs.
We Still Like Them Long
Long evening gloves haven't
by any means departed from
the fashion picture. There'd be
a much more violent struggle
before all Of us would part with
the regulation type, endeared
by years Of learning how to
wear them with dinner on the
program. There remain far
more full-length gloves in view
these Autumn evenings than
any other kind. And all Of
them aren't left-overS from the
last formal season. No, indeed
we've seen too many women
this week buying 16-button
lengths in white and black and
flesh color for approaching
parties.
That Shirred Look
Old or new, however, long
gloves are more becoming than
they were last year because our
elbows have learned not to in
terfere. We're careful now to
keep a glove from showing how
far up on the arm it would
reach. extended. Fashion likes
the shirred effect when evening
gloves are crushed down to the
forearm. They're just as long

as ever, really-in fact, they're
exactly the same as last year,
but they're several dollars less
in price. Why, the pair that's
illustrated up above, in real
French glace kid with pearl but
tons and everything costs little
more than So. And that's in 16-
button length-the incest If
you're wearing long gloves. For
the same style in suede, there's
scarcely any difference in the
price. Twelve-button length, Of
course. is several dollars less.
Sensation, In Short
But the real news that's
popped up into evening glove
fashions is just the reverse in
style. They're short as the
shortest daytime gloves! And
my, how they're taking! Young
girls buying them mostly, for
they do seem frivolous. But
the older women, too, stopping
to look-quite interested, if
we're any judge of expressions!
It can't be long before women of
every age get to like them.
Already Classic
Some Of the short gloves are
quite simple and very trim. The
pair illustrated beneath the
long mousquetaireS above, look
really classic in their simplicity.
You know they're fashion-right
because Of that gentle flare and
the dainty hand-turned hem. In
this very new two-button length,
they come made Of the finest
French suede for just about
$500! Surely, at that price, we
can all afford q pair Of short
"pull-ons" for evening in addi-
tion to th3 long ones In our
wardrobe.

THE CANNING season is end
ing, and we may bid it God
speed. Considerable research has
been expended In determining
whether canned foods are any
less wholesome than others. In
general the results Of these in
veStigations show that canned,
or preserved, foods lose very
little of their valuable ingredi-
ents, and with moderate precau-
tions no dangerous or harmful
elements are added to such
foods.
For instance, taking the actual
food substances-the vital neces-
stiles of any food-we find that

Advice For
Love|orn
BY BEATRICE FAIRFAX.

Dear Miss Fairfax:
am asking you only one
question and wish you would
be so kind as to put the an
Swer in the paper. Is it right
for me to take a present from
a married man who says he
loves me, but whom I don't
care for and have told him so?
have also told him it isn't
right because he is married,
but he said he Is only giving
it as a friend. I wish you
would please tell me what to
do. The present is a five-dollar
bill for my birthday. My in
tention is to send it back. Am
right, or is it all right for
me to keep it? A. r.
Send back the IS by all
means. It is not considered
right or proper for a girl to
take money from a man she
is engaged to, to take it from a
married man is worse and
would subject you to serious
misunderstanding. think you
realize this from the text of
your letter.
Dear Miss Fairfax:
My problem is that I have
been going very steady for one
year with a young man just
recently divorced. He loves
me and I love him, yet he says
he has no definite plans for
the future. Maybe in two or
three years, he will feel differ
emily about marriage, he says.
Would you consider going out
with other men? Nothing
could be less interesting to me.
as I find in this man every
thing that is desirable.
A OHTE MAN WOMAN.
Since the young man does
not believe in engagements, it
seems to me that you should
consider yourself at liberty to
be equally free. I would tell
him this: Why don't you adopt
his point Of view, and regard
the friendship as not binding
either of you. You are "a, and
in three years you will be 27-

CHAPTER 26

Cf1AE EfN 20
The orders regulating the at
tendance at school of the re-
turned soldiers have arrived.
Our delegates have achieved
what we wanred--a shortened
course, a separate syllabus for
the soldiers and an easing of
the examination requirements.
It was no simple matter to
put through, despite the Revo-
luton; all this commotion has
been nothing but mere rip
pling of the surface. It has
not gone under. What is the
good of merely changing the
occupants Of half a dozen of
the top posts? Any soldier
knows that a company COM
mander may have the best of
intentions, but if his noncoms
are against him he is powerless
to effect anything. So, too,
even the most progressive min
lister must shipwreck If he has

war back into the past; things
have gone full circle. But we
are no longer in it.
Hollermann, our literature
teacher, comes in and at once
sets about what he considers
his first duty. He must return
to us such things Of ours as
still remain here from the days
before the war. They have too
long been a burden on his
orderly schoolmaster's soul. He

ITALY IS READY
TO DISARM SAY
GOVT OFFICIALS
Col StimsOn Is Informed of
the Stand That Italians
Will Take on Disarma=
ment
BY ROBERT j. BENDER
Omitted Press Vive-President ani
General News Manager.)

Rome, July 10.-Colonel Henry
l.. Stimson, American secretary of
state, has been informed by italian
government leaders that the world
is faced with war and communistic
chaos unless the powers agree to
disarm.
In lengthy conversations, formal
and informal, at Offices and at a
dinner, Colonel Stimson was told
that two routes face the world, as
Italy sees it:
l. One leads to peace and econ
omic recovery through disarma-
ment when they say that, but mere
ly the effort to seek limitation of
present ornaments.
2. The other leads to war and
communism through failure to linn
it ornaments.
Stimson that Italy chose the road
to peace and was willing to embark
on that path at the world arms
conference at Geneva next Febru-
airy. Mussolini foresaw a world
faced with disorders and spread of
communist agitation if the arms
conference fails.
I'VE have agreed with Mr. Slim
son to follow u path of peace and
Italy is ready to accept the lowest
arms limitation figure, even only
10000 guns for all Italy, providing
no other nation has more" Pre-
mier Benito Mussolini said. "Other-
wise it would be like trying to de-
fend oneself with a club against a
pistol"
Mussolini discussed Secretary
Stimson's mission in the high CELL
1nSed, tapestry-covered office of
the palace where he had Just greet
ed the American statesman and
where he received press correspon-
dents for the first time.
The premier spoke with emphasis
and gestures, sitting with his arms
folded as he listened to questions
and then throwing back his mas
sive head as he answered, smiling,
but with great seriousness.
Mr. Stimson's voyage to Europe
is very important even though it
is not official in character" Mus
solini said, echoing previous
statement of Dino Grandi, foreign
minister, who said the forthcoming
conferences should lead to an in
ship.
Even on an unofficial visit"
Mussolini said, "Mr Stimson re-
mains the secretary of state of the
worlds greatest republic. 1 have
the best impressions of Mr. Slim
son, who is cordial, sympathetic and
also breaths wisdom.
"Mr Stimson gave me an i'm
