 "rd adore it. he said eagerly. That's really the objection" His voice trailed away into silence. Ginger went straight to the kitchen telephone and called a number. Mrs ;Tpdike?" she in nuired. "Oh. hello. Mrs Tpdike. This is Ginser-Ginger Ella. At Doorndee."
 She turned to give the artist a broad wink as she spoke. Mrs Up- dike, we have an artist here rather sood-from New York. But, he studied mostly in Paris. He has just done quick sketch of me and is going 10 do my portrait later and we-llh-We were wondering if -er--yoG wouldn't like to have him do one for you or Miriam? Or maybe both of you.

 What little brick you are" he said warmly as she hung up the re- ceiVer.
 What little slick you mean" said Ginger, laughing. Did you mo- tice l mentioned Doorndee and told her Phil will be pleased? Well. Phils always pleased when I am. But l mentioned it to her to remind her of Phil's money.
 You see. Phil has more money than the First National Bank-the Updlkes are the First National bank. And they want her to let them take full charge of her money matters and handle her estate when she dies and all that sort of thing. So when I mention Doorndee they are pretty apt to do what I want them to. Because I am awfully strong with Phil"
 She sat down at the table again and twisted the corner of the cloth up into little flat folds. She was frowning.

have been asked to estimate how much beauty should cost a girl.
 The cost of beauty, like beauty it. self, is so relative thing that it is impossible to state in dollars and cents just how much your face, for instance, should cost you over a given period.
 However, I do think you should work out some kind of beauty spending as much as you should, or too much, on your face, hair, hands and general good grooming.
 The way to work this out would be some such scheme as this: Fig ure on needing, as minimum basis, a good cleansing cream, good nour- ishing cream and an astringent, a bland soap and olive oil or vaseline for your hair, cuticle remover, pol ish and tint for your nails, some kind of hand lotion for your hands and facial makeup. the minimum of which is sa1ve rouge for lips and checks and powder. This, I repeat, is a minimum
 If you have permanents or week ly manicures or hot oil shampoos or facials, they certainly run up your bills. But it seems to me good plan is to keep actual count of every cent you spend for beauty over given period, say six weeks or two months, for you will have to renew your supplies in that time and even up on what you have on hand.
 Total it all up honestly, and see just what proportion it is of your salary or your income. If it seems more than you should spend you can cut it two ways: either use less expensive products or use sparingly of good products. The latter may prove much the best in the long run, for the elbow grease you put into massaging your face. the daily brush- ing of your hair and the daily care of your nails make their contribution

EPISCOPALIANS WERE SURPRISED
 AT CONVENTION
Prohibition, Which The, Didn't Expect to Dis cuss, Is Hurled Into the Floor Discussions

Denver, Colo, Sept 22-(UP)- The question of prohibition was before the Episcopal convention today. The House of Bishops and Deputies at the 50th triennial con. vention received a petition from Bishop Charles Fiske, of Centra New York, calling for approval oi a national referendum upon. pro. hibition. It was reported BishoI Fiske would head a fight today U bring the petition out upon ths floor of the convention. The peli. tion came as a surprise. Prohibi. tion had not been listed among tht convention issues, which already included such controversial sub. jects as birth control, re-marriagt of divorced persons, sterilization of criminals, insane, and defectives and pacifism.
 The question of pacifism brought verbal pyrotechnics yesterday whcp a resolution introduced by Charles L. Dibble. of Marshall. Mich, fail- ed of passage.
 The resolution censured the United States supreme court for it's refusal to grant citizenship to Prof Douglas Macintosh and Miss Marie A. Bland because they declined to promise to serve under arms if called upon to do so in defense of their country. ..

noted to a pastorate and trans ferred to Plainville.
 Father O'Connelf is also leaving Waterbury with best wishes ot hundreds of friends. He had proved himself a most valued aide to Rev James O'Meara, pastor, who came here from Norwichtown two years. ago to succeed the late Rev Dr Farrel Martin. The par ishoners of St Patrick's parish were greatly surprised today to learn of his assignment to Mer.- den.
 It is understood that a young priest, Father Wurkas of Strat- ford, will be transferred here is to succeed Father O'Connell.
 Rev Lawrence Skelly, who has been teaching school at St Charles college in Maryland for the past year, has been notified of his as- signment as assistant pastor at St Joseph's church in, Danbury. Father Skelly at present is spend- ing a vacation at his home, PAP Willow street.

 pr Allen wento Phillips House this morning but whether to see MacMillan or some other patient could not be ascertained.

 Trip to Acadia
Judge Entertains Rotari- ans With Interesting
 Talk

Judge Harry J. Beardsley enter .tained the members of the Rotary Club at the Elton this noon with an account of his recent fishing trip to Acadia.
 He stated that he was asked by the parish priest in the town where he stopped to say few words to the parish after mass on Sunday. They are very proud people and have allowed no intermingling. They consider themselves of the purest French blood" said the judge.
 He told of fishing for squid. This is called "jigging for squid.' These are young devil fish with no shells. We would throw in our line and then after we had hooked one, the next thing on the program was to duck as they eject a stream of salt water and then ink" :" he went on.'

Rev James Donaher, assistant pastor of St Margaret's church and Rev Thomas O'Connell, assistant pastor of St Patrick's church are among the various priests of the diocese of Hartford to be affected by the latest changes ordered by Rt Rev John J. Milan. Two young Waterbury priests. Rev Lawrence Skelly and Rev William Monaghan were informed to-day of parochial assignments.
 Father Donaher, according to semi official reports, will leave Waterbury to establish his resi- dence in Cheshire, where he will be assigned as Catholic chaplain of the state reformatory and will also act as spiritual advisor to the Catholic students attending Rox- bury school.
 It is understood that Father o. Connell will become assistant to Rev James Duggan of Meriden. In- cidentally Father Donaher will make his home with Father Dug gan until a permanent residence has been provided for him in 'Ches- hire.
 Within a day or two it is expect ed that Bishop Milan will an- nounce a number of appointments as well as transfers. About once year when the ranks of the curates are increased by ordinations all pastoral vacancies are filled and assignments made transferring pastors as we'll as assistants.
 Throughout the state at present there is considerable speculation as to pending changes. The inti- nation today, however, that Fath- CT Donaher was to be transferred from St Margaret's church came as a big surprise. Father Donaher came to Waterbury in June 1890, shortly after his ordination. Few young priests have made such a favorable impression upon con- gregation or the general public as has Father Donaher. It Is with genuine regret his many friends here view his departure.

HOOVER PRAISE
 AND BEER CRIES
 MIXED TOGETHER
Legion Men May Not Vote for Extra Bonus, But They Will Fight for Beer

Detroit, Mich, Sept 22-UP)- Praise for President Hoover was mixed to-day with shouts of "we want beer" as thousands of Amer ican Legion men turned their at tention from the bonus to prohibit tion and accepted the latter as now being the most controversial ques- tion before their annual conven- tion.
 While some delegations declared they still planned to vote in favor. of bonus. the earlier feeling thai the fight over this question would be the most bitter of the conven- tion faded away. In the place of the cry for the bonus arose the cry for beer. This demand first was heard as President Hoover left the speakers platform yesterday. IL then was shouted in fun, but the cry was taken up and although Mi Hoover apparently did not notice. the shouting was, general as 7 her hurried back to his train. To-day the shouting was more serious. ~
