Give Brook has been given an excellent story in which to make his debut as a star. "Silence" cur rent attraction at Warner Bros State theater is a story that en- ables Brook to portray character that is particularly fitted to his own inimitable style.

 Fur trimmings are plentiful; as- trakan is still very smart, but is more often seen in beautiful shades of gray and brown than in black. All the fiat furs are good, too, and there are number of old favorites that are back in the limelight, such as beige and natudal squirrel, bronze seal otter, leopard, skunk and natural, long, haired seal. Sil- yer fox figures on the more sumptu- ous evening wraps together with ermine, and sables.

If you want to have lovely face, don't neglect your feet! A great percentage of the frown lines be- tween your eyes and the dropping lines around your mouth are caused, odd as it may appear. by tired, aching feet.
 When the, first signs of foot strain appear, whether these signs are, pain, stiffness, or, just a tired feeling across the arch, give your feet some much-deserved attention. relax them by spending a little time each day on a bed or couch with your feet propped up on pil- lows. If your days are 50 complete ly filled with other things that you don't have time to do that, then at least take the time to bathe them properly.
 Soak your feet in hot water for two minutes, then in very cold water for thirty seconds, then in hot water again.: then in cold. AL ways end with the cold water. Try this two or three times a day and notice how the pain and aching will be relieved in week or two.
 Massage is excellent for your cir culation and will relieve pain and strengthen ithe muscles of your feet. Applysa good foot cream and then massage every inch until the aches disappear.
 If you can go to a pedicure once a month, be sure and do so. It will improve your face and com plexion as much as your visit to the beauty parlor. But If you can not afford this weekly visit, or if you haven't time,. at least soak the feet in hot and cold water (alternating and massage them each night. ..s~
 Perfect cleanliness is an essen tial to beautiful, comfortable feet. Use plenty of soap and water. Scrub them energetically with a little brush or a hard finish wash cloth. Be sure and rinse off all the soap and dry the feet thoroughly, particularly between the toes. If the skin feels dry after your vigorous rubbing, apply a little foot cream or cold cream and mas sage 1t in thoroughly. Dust be- tween your toes with boracic acid powder before you put on clean stockings. It will help to keep them from perspiring and swell ing.
 Never wear a pair of stockings the second time without washing them. Soiled stockings-andt they are soiled if you have worn them once, even if they don't look dirty are very unhealthy and certain ly unsanitary. Incidentally, stock ings wear three times as long if you wash them just as soon as you take them off.

With the opening of school days, breakfast becomes perhaps the most important meal of the day. The normal adult needs some type of morning meal even if it's the lightest variety, but children must have nourishing. unhurried breakfast before they begin the day.
 The adult who is dieting to re- duce and decides to eat but two meals day gives his digestive ap- paratus a fairer chance if he goes without his luncheon rather than his breakfast. This divides the time between meals more equally.
 Breakfast for children should be of the hearty" type. A morn ing in school uses up vast amount of nervous energy as well as physical strength. No child can work mentally who is not nourished. Listlessness. headache or irritability may be the result Of scanty breakfasts.
 Many children have little appe- tite for breakfast. This may be

NEW YORK, October 27.-Much of
the recent trouble of banks has been
due to the depreciation in their securi-
ties. The highest percentage of shrink
age has occurred in foreign dollar bonds
As many of these have been dropped
down into the lower ratings by the
various services whose quality mark is

rency, Federal Reserve and State bank
examiners. in making up their reports,

divided profits or surplus account con-
siderable amounts, due to the drop in
this type of obligation
1t is therefore highly important to
American banks as whole that the
liquidation in foreign dollar bonds ap-
pears to have run its course. The past
week has developed the strongest mar
ketS for practically all of the listed and
unlisted issues witnessed in months. II
has not yet been sufficient, nor have
the surrounding circumstances changed
enough, to revise ratings upward What
has been accomplished has been TO lift
the values of bonds held in bank port

Shrinkage in Capital
Except in the case of South Ameri-
can issues, the holders OF foreign dol
lar bonds have not so far experienced
much loss in income. There are many
issues selling from IS cents to 30 cents
on the dollar whose debt service is
being promptly met and whose sinking
funds are operating on a normal basis.
In this respect the situation is similar

now about 70. At the same time the
government of Norway 6s declined to
around so, after having had uniform
markets the greater part of the year at
premium over par.
Japanese Issues.
Most recently Japanese issues took
part in the slump as reflection of the
war activities in the Far East. The
Japanese government SIPS issued a
short time before the German govern
ment 5l2s and at approximately the
same price, sold nearly 65 points higher
than the latter and then declined from
above SO to rs. Vow they are back 10
points from their lew level
Next to South American issues those
OF Germany, her political divisions and
her corporations had the severest de-
cline and the one that did much harm
to banks holding them. Outstanding
in this group, of course, are the 5l3s
known as the Young lean. which
dropped as low as 81 At the same
time the Dawes loan U.s. looked upon
as one of the strongest of all European
dollar issues because of its priority po-
sition with respect to German reve-
nues, declined to SIS. or just so points
below the high of the year Both have
rallied 10 points. At the same time
there have been advances in other
German dollar obligations ranging from
Is to nearly 20 points.
Even the South American group in
default has recovered substantially. It
is in this list that prices have doubled
since the low averages were reached
a month ago. Conspicuous in it are
the obligations of Chile, Brazil and
Uruguay, as well as those of the state
of Sac Paulo.
Not only the market price situation
in foreign government bonds has i'm
proved but there are continuing tech
meal gains due to the steady reduction
in outstanding obligations BY sinking
funds at time when there are no new
additions to the list The record TODAY
of only S2e6, 900 900 in foreign borrow
ing for the first nine months of this
year of which about 65 per cent was
for Canadian account and only 25 per
cent for Europe, is likely to hold at
about the same ratios for some years
to come.

of the entire market depression has been
the shrinkage of capital rather than
the decrease in earnings from capital.
Going through the list of foreign
bonds today. it is possible to find adj
vanceS ranging from 10 to 20 points
