Just
Every
Day
Sense

EDNA WALLACE HOPPER, our
IL perennial happer, fairly siz-
zles over the radio. You can feel
her spirits leaping at you as her
voice comes lifting over the air.
She explains how youthful and
agile and lovely she is, and into
her tone she throws all the juve-
nile cadences. If the effect is
a little strained, what does it
matter?
It seems that Miss Hopper has
retained her youth because Of
important European discoveries.
Her entire bunch Of recipes boasts
a foreign origin. Some amazing
viennese physician, or remark
able Paris specialist, had &C
conaplished wonders with wonaens
looks, so Miss Hopper goes over
and gobbles them all up for her
clients.
And the more I listen to her
enthusiasts over the radio, the
more I am determined to grow old
calmly. These gyrations of a
woman past go are the most
wearisome things in the world.
WHY in the name Of sense
wv should woman want to look
Is all her life? In the first place,
looking Is would entail acting 10,
and that would be torture. Miss
Hopper, to be true, makes q great
TODD because the jelly beans try
to date her up.
Can you imagine anything less
thrilling if you had attained the
ripe age of three-score years?
Even iii the middle thirties, jolly
ing jelly beans would be my idea
of a right tiresome pastine.
Miss Hopper and all the other
perennial young things assume
that there are pleasures for ma
turity and no conpensations for
age. They are wrong. Each age
has its delights.
And the most foolish thing any
woman can do, unless she is in
the business of selling cosmetics,
is to try to mix the pleasures of
one age with those of another.
I am wondering also why more
girls do not take a course in
pharmacy. The ability to ana
lyze face creams comes in handy
for any woman.

C0IO1.S and
Designs Are
Nez0, Fresh
By JEAN PAroU.

PARIS, March 3.-Printed fabrics
are Of Incompatible assistance TO
style creator because of the con-
tinuous variations they bring to
fashions in general.
we can not tire Of them, despite
Une fact that at the end Of every
summer 1t invariably is decreed that
prints definitely are going out.
1t IS because Of their dual quail
Ties Of freshness and decorativeness
mat prints are not likely TO disap-
pear from fashions orbit. Though
other fabrics may disappear from
the mode after a short-hved vogue,
where prints are concerned one al
ways can look forward TO new com
positions IN design and coloring
which make each seasons offering
look totally different from the last.
Enchanting for Summer
Summer prints are an enchant-
ment Of delicate, sunny color
schemes, facilitating the coutu-
rter's task in composing countless
vaporous and dainty gowns, differ
ing in this from the winter prints
that necessarily are more restrained
IN color and Of thicker texture, ap-
pearing Is they usually do on such
materials as moires, lanes or vel
vets.
Prints are good for the spring
time also, provided they are used
in moderation.
The early spring models In my
new collection that are made UP in
printed fabrics are essentially dis
Greet as regards design and color
ing, whereas those destined for the
summer months are more colorful.
This is so far as evening dresses
are concerned.
Color Schemes Are Discreet
The carefully studied technique
Of cut to be found in the new models
that feature prints enables me to
use the more discreet Of the range
Of color schemes offered.
Black and white or a combination
that gives one the impression that
black and white predominates are
the best, as, for instance, black
combined with several shades Of
gray or black and white and sorae
other pale shade in the pastel green
or pinks that remain unobtrusive.
Any spring evening dress or
printed fabric should, I think. al
ways be accompanied by wrap Of
heavier material in solid color.
I think that velvet, in this respect,
is an ideal medium. 1t compen-
safes the .sheerness of the dress and
supplies the necessary luxurious
touch, devoid of fur, as many Of this
seasons models are, demanded of
an evening ensemble.
Black Touched With White
Even more discreet coloring and
design is required of printed fabrics
for afternoon spring clothes. While
later on in the season holder de-
signs and more vivid hues are per-
INVISIBLE, black and white are ohvi-
ously the only possible combination
for the first warm spring days.
Even here, the white design should
not dominate, but the general i'm
preston of the ensemble should be
rather one of black touched with
white than a combination Of both.
Heavyweight crepes are used for
these outdoor models to cope with
the vagaries of the season, and in
most cases, long coat of plain
fabric conceals the dress.
Pique and lingerie touches at
collar and cuffs afford a vast field
for new ideas and belts Of supple
patent leather also. are q good fin
isling touch.

Convicted Realtor Files Ha-
beas Corpus Petition in
U. S. Supreme Court.
BAIL is REFUSED HIM
PENDING CASE HEARING
Contends District Code Is Shy
Statute Defining Punishment
for Conspiracy.

G. Bryan Pitts, former chairman of
the board Of the F. H. Smith Co., now
under sentence to the penitentiary for
conspiracy, today filed petition in the
United States Supreme Court asking
his release on hapeas corpus proceed
ings from the Washington Jail, where
he Is now being held.
In his petition Pitts advanced sub
stantially the same grounds urged n
asking the District Court of Appeals to
release him. He again asserted that the
District Code contained no statute de-
timing or prescribing punishment for
conspiracy, and insisted that under the
Federal criminal CODE under which he
had been indicted, he could be tried
only in "a district court of the United
States" He declared Congress DELHI
erately omitted from the criminal laws
OF the District conspiracy section.
While there Is provision for holding
"a district court OF the United States"
In the District of Columbia, no attempt
was made to bring him before such
court, he stated. contending that under
these circumstances his trial and con-
victior in the Supreme Court of the
District was invalid and that he must
be released because he Is being held
under sentence imposed by a court
which had no jurisdiction to try him.
Pitts was refused release on bail by
Justice Butler pending the action of the
highest court on his petition.

Edward L. Wagner, who is % months
old now, but who just can't refrain
from hopping about on the overStuffed
sofas and chairs, bounced of the bed
springs at 1903 East Capital street this
morning into the middle of a quandary.
Edward L. was up to his wonted

himself against interference by locking
the door to his mothers bed room.
In addition to being precocious,
Edward L. is big for his age. His
mother, hearing a groan OF springs,
hurried up. found the door locked and
ordered Edward L. out.
After some final bounces, Edward L.
would have complied, but the key stuck.
He turned this way and that to no
avail and when note of fear began TO
creep into his mothers voice, Edward
l.. echoed it loudly from within.
Presently both Edward l.. and his
mother, Mrs. William G. Wagner. were
in a panic. Mrs. Wagner called the
Fire Department.
Edward L. had settled down to some
plain and fancy wailing when No.
