WASHINGTON FASHIONS = By Wilma LdviNe

Last week we discussed fall
gloves and when to wear them.
Now we've sketched some of the
most intriguing of them, with
captions that show very plainly
when they're to be worn. Un-
fortunately, We couldn't sketch
all the beautiful gloves We saw.
They're so lovely this year that
it was a temptation to take
them all, but space wouldn't per-
NIT. Just remember that these
are only a few, and If you look
you probably can find a pair to
suit every costume, not only in
color, but in trimming, too, for,
though gloves are fairly simple,
their trimming details follow
the same trends as clothes, and
it's easy to match them up.
Velcet for Evening
At the top are evening gloves,
newest types, though you can
still wear the plain kids or
suedes that you had last year.
At the left are short gloves,
sponsored by many debutantes.
These are of softest kid, with
the cuffs shirred and held with
metal thread, gold on flesh
gloves, and silver on white. At
the right are the much-talked-of
velvet evening gloves, the arm
section Shirred with elastic so
that they come just below the
elbow. They come in the smart
est colorS to harmonic with
your gowns-Sea foam green,
platinum, blue, flesh, peach and
so on. They are only $2.95, and
the short kids are $3.50.
Kid for Afternoon
You can't appreciate the
beauty and quality of the after
noon gloves unless you see
them. On the left we have a
puffed cuff, the newest thing
we've seen so far. The gloves
are of softest dull kid, the puff
with elastic in the top. They're
in black with faint white
stitching, or in brown, and are
SIS a pair. The gloves on the
right are longer, have tiny
tucks for their trimming, and
are priced $3.50. Proof that
women want better things,
even if they must have fewer
of them, is that the store
where these gloves are found
can scarcely keep in them.
Hand Stitching
Eggshell pigskin may sound
strange. but it's the. Smartest
thing for street and sports you
ever saw. The gloves on the
left are of it, with applique
in brown pigskin, and are soft
as the lighter feathers. This
glove has one button, which is

The greatest danger from
whooping cough is not from
the infection itself but from
the extremely exhausting pa
roxysms Of coughing.
The site Of the infection in
whooping cough is just below
the vocal cords and larnyx in
the windpipe. The infection
produces an extremely thick, te-
nacious mucous, which quickly,
after it's formation, gets en-
tangled in the vocal cords and
causes a long drawn out spell
of coughing which ends in
spaSm of the vocal chords. The
paroxysms Of coughing produce
very little Sputum and hence
get rid of very little toxic ma
terial, from the body. But
they result in extreme exhaus-
tion, and especially since they
often end with a spell of vomit-
ing, they result in damage to
the nutrition to the body. Nu-
tritional damage from the
vomiting can be seen in con-
siderable loss of weight.

or mother, or catches hold Of

niture in order to steady itself.
The things that the mother
or nurse can do to help the
child, without overdosing it,
are many.
First: Give the child some
thing to cough against. This
may be accomplished, first, by
putting the hands on the
child's abdomen or putting the
arms around the child's abdo-
men. A glass of warm bicar-

shaving papers, rumpled clothes,
slippers, cigarette butts, ashes.
Women have been picking up
after men since the world be-
gan: picking up not only in
their homes, but after economic
panics and wars, which the
women did not bring about.
Speaking Of picking up after
economic snarls which they
did not bring about, the follow
ing letter is typical of many
letters which come these days:
Dear Miss Fairfax:
Since my husband lost his
job, I have been keeping the
pot boiling. At first he seemed
to try very hard to find some
thing to do, but now a strange
apathy has got hold Of him,
and he seems content to let
me work. He hangs around the
cigar store where they sell
flashy magazines and loafs
most of the day, and I am
getting pretty tired of it. Nor
does he add anything to our
life together in the way Of
cheerfulness, or helping out
with domestic work. Instead,
he's sulky, and after boiling
the meal I prepare; goes back
to his beloved cigar store at
the corner. MARGERY.
To Hide Shame
This is indeed a case for
forbearance. The i'll tempers Of
a jobless husband are probably
no more than a barricade to
hide his shame. He hides his
feelings by an air Of indiffer-
ence and bravado, meantime
rushing off to the cigar store
to get out of the atmosphere Of
home, where his wife is doing
double duty. All said and done,
I think conditions are harder
on the man than they are on
the woman. She doesn't know
really all he has suffered in his
despair at not being able to
find work.
There is no braver spectacle
than the women who carry on
today and do double duty. They
work in shops and offices, then
rush home to cook the evening
meal, and often find a sulky,
despairing man awaiting them.
Their grit is equal to that Of
the pioneer woman who took
her chances with scalping. or
death by hunger and thirst in
the wilderness.
But husbands shouldn't Sulk,
even if they are jobless. It's
better Sportsmanship to stay
home and do the dishes while
the working wife rests, than it
is to rush off to the friendly
cigar store and forget, in the
wisecracking Of other men, the
humiliation of being ioblesS.
Such frail crafts as this will
have hard time to make the
rifle, but with Bear and For

In the days when people
used to keep photograph al
buns on the center table and
write their preferences in a
Confession Album" newly
weds sometimes got cards with
the words BEAR AND FOR
BEAR" upon them.
came across one of these
some time ago in one of our
Southern States. The couple
who had got it on their we'd
ding morn had been married
80 years, and the wife pointed
to the BEAR AND FOR
BEAR" card with pride. Evil
IDENTIFY the magic had worked
for them. Their home was
prosperous. There were four
children, all doing well, and
q Sprouting crop of grand
children. Life tasted good to
that family. The wife seemed
to think much of it was due
to the motto on the card.
Front Page News
A few years ago when q IA
nous novelist announced she
never intended to breakfast with
her newly-married husband, the
front pages took the matter
up with headlines. And per-
hapS there was a good deal Of
wisdom in the lady'S decision
for that lady.
But breakfasts at different
hours are out of the question for
average family. They would
cost too much in time and
money. The morning meal
must be got out of the way and
the great business of picking up
after the departing male begun.
Good humor, appearance, talk,
all are apt to be at lowest ebb
during breakfast. There is the
scramble to get to work. Some
one perhaps has not got more
than one eye really open. And
the housewife, whether bride or
mother of a family, who has
had breafast to get may present
a frowsy appearance.
She may have been guilty Of
that deadly sin against family
disappearing with those
barnacles upon her head known
as crimperS. And many's the
crimp these alleged beautifiers
have put into the course Of true
love! Crimp and curl If you
must, but do it in secret. Traces
of cold cream are even more un-
forgivable, and a messy wrap
per demands the greatest for
bearance of all.
A Hard Job
To forbear at the moment
may be difficult, we'll nigh i'm
possible. But it's good time to
remember that your wife has
probably tried to save time by
putting on something in which
she can pick up after YOU.
AS you jammed on your hat
and made for the nearest sub
way, filled with pretty girls
we'll groomed, highly dolled up,
you may have thought with
tragic bitterness Of your wife's
appearance. How different from
these lovely sirens she looked!
Forbear, and remember that
she had to get up earlier than
you to get breakfast, and at that
very moment she is probably
picking up after you, and pick

Lennox turned his eyes from

Two hands of identically the
same cards are exceedingly rare,
but many hands of similar
types are dealt. In the Eastern
Championship Tournament, both
Messrs. S. S. Lenz and Charles
S. Lochridge elected to play a
hand at Ono Trumps, that all
other players sitting in their
positions played at 6-Clubs. Now
comes a hand of similar type,
played in a rubber game, by a
student at Whitman College,
Walla Walla, Wash. I do not
know whether or not he had
heard how Lenz and Lochridge
played their hands, but in any
event he did equally we'll. The
hand is given below:

PLEAD GUILTY

A dramatic trial on at Raleigh came
to a quick end when superior court
Judge John H. Harwood and his
daughter, Miss Lola HARDWOOD, 26, an
only child, pleaded guilty of charges
against them-the father for tamper-
ing with records to evidence
against his daughter; the daughter for
~embezzling $4,S23 while under m
ployment of the State, to cover stock
market losses. Judge Harwood's man
hood asserted itself when he faced
committing perjury, and a long case
came to its dramatic end as the father
made manifest how he tried to save
his child. The young woman goes to
the penitentiary for a service of two
years. Judge Harwood, having resign
ed his post as judge and pleading
guilty to a misdemeanor, will lose none
of his rights as a citizen in the service
of one year in Jail.
Attorney General Brummitt revers-
ed the order of commitment from
jail to state prison, thus making Judge
Harwood's offense a felony instead of
misdemeanor.

In general the merchants reacted

stated that more time would be af-

Solicitations

The merchant who can tell prospective customers in
an effective message who he is; where he is and what he
has to offer for their betterment need not fear any
amount of negative thinking.
To keep the mind alert and go with the trend of the
times in merchandising means that that particular mer-
chant will ride upon an incoming tide of greater and
greater business.
Life is constantly changing and any business that is
bound to traditions of the past must Of necessity fade
out of the picture.
Salbury and Rowan county are fortunate from an
employment and industrial angle if our merchants will
be receptive unto new thoughts in business everything
with them will spell larger volume of trade.
Look to this day for it is life, the very life of life.

OUR MOTHERS V US

OUR MOTHERS LOVED US
It's strange, yes, very strange
How human beings change
With passing years.
They curdle and they sour,
Grow glum, morose and dour
And full of sneers;
Their souls grow warped and bent
And gnarled from discomfort;
They snarl and growl,
Complain and vent their spite
And seem to think it right
To raise a howl.
Not all are thus, it's true,
But rather more than few,
We sadly note;
Too many, be it said,
To swell the human head
And make it gloat.
What's more we stand amazed
And not a little .dazed
To see some brute
And think some mother viewed
His infant form and cooed:
Gee, amt he cute!"
