HOOVER 5 BOAT
DUE To REACH
GOAL TODAY

WITH PRESIDENT HOOVER
OFF FLORIDA COAST, Dec. 30
1N.S) Hoping to clip day
from his schedule for arrival at
Palm Beach and deep-sea fishing
grounds, President Hoover's winter
fishing expedition moved south
ward at top speed today out of
Sebastian Inlet, 125 miles below
Daytona, anchorage point for the
night.
The President, Mrs. Hoover and
their guests hoped to make Palm
Beach by late today. If they
do, Mr.. Hoover probably will be
out with rod and reel early to-
morrow in search of the fighting
Barracuda.
Travels at ID Miles
The Sequoia, Commerce De.
partment boat on which the
Hoovers are travelling, along with
its Coast Guard conveys, picked
up to a cruising speed of about
ii miles an hour in an effort
to arrive in Palm Beach late to-
day. Previous plans called for
arrival at the resort tomorrow
night.
One stop was scheduled for the
day. at Fort Pierce, IS miles
north of Palm Beach. This will
be brief, for the purpose of TAX
ing on water and gasoline.
A meeting between the Presi-
dent and Harry Guggenheim,
ambassador to Cuba, was tenta-
lively in prospect today. Guggen-
helm has announced he would
fly from Havana to Palm Beach
to greet the President on his
arrival Lawrence Richey, secre-
tary to the President, denied
any significance, political or
otherwise, was attached to the
prospective meeting.
Having Good Time
The President, Richey said, is
enjoying himself thoroughly, and
has cleaned up most of the
routine work demanding his
attention. Heavy patches of mail
and kilograms are sent off the
Presidential boat at intervals.
The Sequoia and its conveys
made the longest run of the trip
yesterday, from 20 miles above
Daytona to waters in the vicinity
of San Sebastian, 125 miles be-
low the point of the previous
nights anchorage.
Mr.. Hoover probably viii spend
the New Year weekend fishing,
with leisurely cruises scheduled
for Sunday, when he will not
fish. He may move southwark
again Monday in search of sail
fish. He still plans to begin the
return trip to washington by
rail Tuesday or Wednesday, but
Richey intimated this schedule
might be heightened if the fish
ing is good.

"What do you mean" Joan, Ruth asked. How do you know?"
 But Ruth's eyes told that she didn't know whether sine wanted Sally to be unchanged, so she wouldn't love a man who didn't love her. or whether she wanted her to have changed because she would be braver, truer, finer
 Phil had followed Joan into the office. He stepped aside as she took the center of the floor.
 T found Phil at the house, wait- ing. He knew I was being-ex- .treme," Joan went on. "Joe, have you the locket Sally gave you years
 dThe locket? Golly, no! Or if I have don't know where 1t is."
 "I'll tell you what's wrong with Sally" Joan went on. "She found Ruth's initials on the other locket and decided that she had been schemed against-even If is was to help her. Her pride's hurt but that's not all. Her hearts all breaking to pieces because she dared to believe that Joe wanted to marry her, and now she knows that he doesn't--that he is being good sport about 1t! If you could find the other locket and prove that you have kept it."
 She reached her hand into her own coat pocket. T brought mine along. It is just about the same. Not quite. l was mistaken. But If you had yours"
 Joe Raynor smiled again. But the smile was set. "Ladies and gentlemen, my office is at your dis posal," he began dramatically 'Everything I have is in a drawer in that desk or that chest Start in.''
 Ruth chose the chest drawers. She knew that they would con- tain things that were more per- sonal.
 She turned over some old pa- pers. Some old letters. Sally's writing was on the envelopes. Joe had forgotten that he had saved them. she knew. But an idea danc- cd into her mind. She put them aside.
 Not here," Joan said after a while. Not sign of locket Any luck, Ruth?"
 .'None," she answered. She was hunting methodically. But as she did so, she was thinking. If Joe didn't want to marry Sally, if he was doing 1t to be a good sport fl wasn't fairl She had been selfish to suggest 1t. Sally had brought all of this on herself. If she had changed she would be good

even in fantasy there must always be a certain reserve.
 have never liked, precisely on account of their monotony, those sports ensembles, for example. composed of coat, skirt and even hat composed of the same fabric. On the other hand, do not favor a hat, however smart and spirit uer' it may be in itself. if 1t is quite independent and no apparent link with the rest of the ensemble.
 Combine LiEic and Color
 Many people make the error of thinking that harmony of color ie synonymous of uniformity of color. This is quite wrong. More often than not, you must introduce other and very different shades to the basic color of the ensemble to achieve something distinctive, pro- vided of course all colors blend to- gether. Personally, I have always preferred that type of harmony which derives from the combina- ton of line and color, with the style and character of the ensem- ble as so many subtle features on which thu required degree of ele- gance can be worked out:

ng that of the coat or dress. How ever. the most simple and obvious way of ensuring continuity in an ensemble is to have some detail running throughout the outfit, whether 1t Is in the trimming, the fur or the fabric.
 Color Serves Effectively
 By far the most interesting and the most subtle way of linking-up the various elements of an ensem ble Is the use of color. but unfor- tunately 1t is more difficult to ex- plain and Illustrate. It is a little more complicated than the use of one specific detail, but infinitely more satisfying. And in this in- stance, harmony does not neces sarily mean the obligation to ex- actly match any one shade.
 Color, however, lends a great deal more attraction to clothes and less the impression of "already seen" the more subtly it is used. I have always maintained that the quality of distinction in an ensem- ble is made of subtle touches and

Hat Trimmings Are Suggested
 For LiaisOn
BY JEAN PAToU Written for NEA Service

Paris-It seems almost super nuous to mention so simple a thing yet you must have noted how often Eou see ensembles made up of a pretty dress, a handsome coat and q smart hat and how somehow all three conjugated together still do not convey the impression of a Homogeneous ensemble.
 The character of an ensemble is determined by the element of har- rnony. To obtain this, there must necessary be liaison between the various parts of the ensemble. This, relatively, is simple matter to achieve, but harmony, on the other hand, cannot exist without a certain amount of equilibrium, it 1s only through the use of a tried and developed sense of measure that you arrive at a well-combined end perfectly balanced ensemble.
 The liaison is more usually and quite effectively arrived at by us- ing trimming on the hat recall

YOUR CHILDREN
ey Olive Roberts Barton

It is perfectly true that many parents have a preference for one child in the family.
 Quite often a mother will love a son better than she loves her daughter, while her husband looks upon his daughter as the apple of his eye.
 Sometimes they are unconscious of the state of their feelings; again, they know 1t, but refuse to acknowledge it. But 1t happens every once in a while that we hear one parent or the other openly bragging about his or her favor ite' offspring and the presence of the child makes no difference.
 This is bad state of affairs very.
 When dad comes out openly and tells Nellie she is the dearest crea- lure alive, then turns to Robbie and complains that he isn't worth his salt, or words to that effect, 1t is just to bad. Or when mother hugs Bob to her heart and tells Nellie to try to be as fine as her brother, it is really a serious mat ter.
 It is only human nature to dis count our blessings and accent the things that wound Us. Bob is hurt and resentful over his fathers in- difference and does not always find complete compensation in his mothers love. Nellie, likewise is wounded by her mothers partial ity and becomes antagonistic and disobedient to both parents. Be- cause, even though her father spells her and makes her his pet" she is less impressed by that than by her jealousy over her brother.
 When one parent gravitates too much toward one child, the nat ural consequence is for the other to withdraw. To go on with Bob and Nellie in this Iopsided family --Bob's father withdraws, so to speak. That only makes matters worse because his mother in de- fense begins an exaggerated coda ling.
 Between herself and her son there Is often a resulting fixation. The same is likely to occur on the other side also.
 Notice then the unbalance. Neg lect, or at least indifference on one side with it's sterner discipline and complaint and on the other side the humoring. excusing and shield ing, Then it happens tha the child learning to hate, and love in ex- tremes of emotion will gain noth- ing.
 Every boy or girl needs two things in his home life. The equal love of both parents, and faith in and respect for both of them that lies outside the bounds of any prejudiced feeling.
 If parent finds him or herself drawn irresistibly to one child, it is better to look facts in the face and be fair. That child should not be allowed to suspect it and neither should the other. A breach so dug deepens and widens with the years, and nothing can bridge it but our own stamina and determination.
 Open preference undermines the whole structure of training.

OLORIFYING
 YOURSELF

WATCH YOUR WAIST LINE.

WATCH YOUR WAIST LINE. i The other evening saw :. plump woman wearing a deep red satin gown with Q shining belt buckle.
 That buckle did terrible things to the impression you got of her. The only thing you could possibly think was that she either should reduce or else leave off the buckle.
 Perhaps, If your waistline isn't ras slender as it should be, you might get yourself a dress with such a buckle and then make your. self train down until you could wear it without feeling apologetic.
 Nothing is so good for the waist line SIS bending exercises. Bend standing, up. Get down on your back on the floor and bend your knees up until they touch your chin. Roll over onto your stomach and kick back, raising your head from the floor simultaneously try- ing with your bent-back head and your kicked back feet to stretch yourself out through the center.
 When you get up mornings. raise your arms above your head and yawn and sigh and then clasp your hands together. still above your head, and swing them, and your body from the waistline up along with them, first to the right side as far as you can without tipping over, then above your head again. then to the left side. If you can keep your hands still up in the air without exertion, raise on your toes and do a few dance steps to this side and that. This stretching is excellent exercise for lltheness through the waistline.
 If you do your homework, you can get plenty of exercise by con. sciously bending through the cen- ter when you make beds, use the dust pan, empty the waste baskets. and so forth. Don't mind this ex- ercise. Most women need 1t!

Well, not then" Linda re- membered what was supposed to have happened. She must tell her story as she and Tom had agreed sticking as closely to the truth as possible, but leaving out what must on no account be revealed to anyone, even this attentive, sympathetic listener. T should have called out, perhaps. But simply felt l must do something! I hurried upstairs blindly his door was open and that must have startled me, though it's hay now when I try to remember. Going to that room was partly force of habit. When Tom's aunt lived here we always had 1t when we visited and after we moved in we were there for a long time while the rest of the house was being decorated. Anyhow = when saw the broken railing" She flung out her hands with an expressive gesture.
 That is such q natural phychol- ogy." the man nodded slowly. So often it Is the symbol of 8 thing rather than the actual occurrence which shocks us. You kept your head wonderfully in the face of the accident itself, but the suggestion of the torn railings--"

 Tt is not pleasant feeling - to faint!'

 hands went to her throat. | "Ah?" She noticed return to the polite boredom of his previous manner and recollected suddenly that no man enjoyed detailed | description of ailments and symp- toms.
 Then you came to my rescue | all of you," she added to explain l the personal prOnoun as his eye brows lifted. He laughed easily. My dear Mrs Averill, there was no need for rescue. Your very god friend, MT Pratt, had 1 already lifted you as MT Stat lander and came in. We could ! only offer assistance. Then when your husband came, he naturally took command"
 Poor Tom! He must have meen terribly upset!"
 A reminiscent smile twisted the corners of the Belgian's grave | mouth. | "Yes ah MT Averill was considerably upset. He ran up- stairs drip. il E from the water, so
 he was obliged to waive the very delightful duty of carrying you to your room in favor of MT Pratt.
 I believe he yielded his privilege with some reluctance"
