If you saw the gorgeous
negligees that we sketched yes
terday, and thought of persuad-
ing someone to give you one
for Christmas, or planned to
give one yourself, then you may
be interested in slippers to
match. Or perhaps you know
someone with a lovely hostess

the smartest sandals to COM.
plete the costume, or who
wants satin mules for her best
satin, robe. You'll be pleased
when you go shopping, not
only at the many smart things
that have been done to make
them more attractive, but at
the low prices. A year or so
ago, it took the best part of
a $5 bill to get attractive satin
mules. but now most of them
are under SO, and some much
less than that.
Velvet Is New
Pajama sandals and mules
follow the same fashion trends
that you find in shoes, usually
the same themes as evening
shoes. They are more grace
full and dainty, and while they
are often much trimmed with
another leather or fabric, they
preserve a simple effect, for
there is no elaboration to break
their plain lines. Applique Of
silver or gold kid is smart, just
as it is on evening shoes. Satin
is still the most popular, but
now you can get dyeable vel
vet too, so that you can match
a gown exactly. Some of the
mules are made with silver kid
strapping dividing the fabric
into sections, so that you can
have it dyed in more than one
color, to match, the trimming
colors of your negligee or per-
haps to go with more than one.
Strapped With Gold
You may select mules or SAN
dalS, whichever you prefer, for
they are about equally popular.
Sandals are more inclined to
be built up over the toes, so
they will be more comfortable,
however, or the straps will be
close together. We've sketched
a few to show what they're
like. each priced $2.95 in local
store, There's a new D'OrSay
of satin with gold kid circle on

comes in colors or black. Then
there's a dyeable velvet sandal

Erysipelas is one of the most
contagious diseases that exist.
That is why every patient with
erysipelas must be isolated as
promptly and as thoroughly as
possible.
Although erysipelas is rarely
fatal in adults; it may never
theless prove fatal to the very
young and the very old. This is
because it toxins or poisons
are SO virile. We must there
fore safeguard our children
against exposure to this dis
ease, for it may appear in a
school and not even be seri.
ously thought of in the very
beginning.
- The type most frequently met
with is the one that attacks
the face and head. At first a
slightly reddish spot is noticed,
often over the bridge of the
nose or ON one or both cheeks.
Fever may or may not be pres
ent although the fever may i'm"
mediately run high and be &C
companied by chill.
Skin Becomes Tense
AS the disease advances the
skin becomes swollen, very tense
and smooth. When the affected
area is touched it. feels fiery
hot. OCCASIONALLY the condition
is so severe that the eyes are
closed from the swelling and
water blisters appear. In fact,
the face may be swollen to
such a degree that the patients
features are scarcely recogniz-
able.
Customarily the disease runs
a course of about five days.
The actual symptoms manifest
themselves from three to seven
days after exposure. AS in
pneumonia, the temperature in
erysipelas disappears finally all
of a sudden, by what is known
as "crisiS." It may vary q lit
tie from day to day. but on
the fifth or sixth or seventh
day it takes a decided drop al
most to normal.
T. 1t is definitely known that
erysipelaS is caused by germ
and its name is "streptococcuS
erysipelators." It may spread
rapidly from one person to an
other and in short order assume
the proportions Of an epidemic.
It seems to be particularly
prevalent in the spring, but just
why this should be so is a
puzzle.
It used to be very common in
old and badly ventilated build
ings with defective sanitation to
find cases of erySipelas spring
ing up every now and again.
In older types of hospitals the
disease often became a serious
problem, spreading from ward
toward and attacking persons

Gifts
Gifts do not always have to be
The customary things,
Like books or strips of tapestry
Or necklaces and rings.
Instead, Intangible as air,
The gift most sweet, most dear,
May be a swiftly whispered
prayer,
A glance of hope and cheer.
A brave souls thought that
surely lends
It's courage to my own;
The message which the morning
sends,
A song loved lips have known!
Gifts do not always have to be
Old prints, exotic flowers;
The rarest gift life brought to

Dear Miss Fairfax:
My husband is a travelling
man and only gets home week
ends. He meets a great many
men who, like himself, are 'al-
ways away from home. Lately
he invited one of them to spend
the, weekend with us. This
mans business headquarters is
about 400 miles from his home,
so he doesn't get there very
often. When he went back he
write his wife about his visit,
and a few days later I received
a letter from her, thanking us
for our kindness to her hus-
band. She also sent me a small
gift. I would like to write this
woman and thank her for the
gift. Is it preferable to put
date at the top Of a letter, or
under the name at the end?
Is this paper all right? E. K.
Your paper is very nice in
deed. So is your handwriting.
In such a letter as you Sug-

send me a self-addressed en-

An Illusion oI
Great Space

In a small room a generous
design of several depths will
give the illusion of space much
better than a dinky little pat
tern that showers the tiny room
with it's own tiny nosegay.
For a small living room, for
instance, choose a spreading
Semi-scenic in tones of buff and
cream and tan with large
rather indistinct trees in the
foreground and tiny hills in the
vista. The perspective in the
design will make the room seem
much larger than it really is.
And not only that but the room
borrows dignity and Importance
from the wallpaper.

Louisa came into the room,

heard her grandmother say,
evenly. "I understand that Fred
Van Alstyne has been in the
neighborhood for a few days."

upon Elizabeth with such cool

suffering from other disorders,
as well as nurses and attend
ants. During every war, cry
spielas has been a disease to be
feared, particularly in hospitals
near the front lines. Those
with wounds from surgical op-
erations or accidents seem to
be particularly susce ptible.
Ever now and again an indi-
vidual is found who seems to
have marked predisposition to
the disease. Such a person may
suffer repeated attacks, even
when every precaution is taken
to protect him.
Need Medical Aid
1t is true that erysipelas
seems to run course which
might be called one Of Self-cure.
Nevertheless, although no spe-
cial medical remedies are to be
recommended, it is unwise to
treat such a case at home and
without medical aid. Due to its
highly contagious nature, the
place to treat erysipelas patients
is a hospital where strict isola-
tion methods may be carried out
without interference.
Erysipelas may be complicated
by kidney disease or pneumonia.
Often a general blood-poiSoning
results and sometimes an in
flamation of the lining Of the
heart may follow. These dan
gers are sufficient reason for
seeking medical aid, for a doc
tor knows how to treat such
complications.

That suit was even worse for
Y than clubs, so Y bid 2-Hearts.
OF course z could neither stand

suit. z bid 3.Diamonds. The
situation was crystal clear to Y:
his partner had first bid a
minor suit, showing it to be
longer than the spade suit
which he had bid secondarily; a
suit of fewer than four cards is
not biddable; when z showed a
third biddable suit he clearly in
dicated that his hand held just
four spades, no hearts, five
clubs and four diamonds. Think
ing over how such hand would
play, Y took the bit in his
teeth, by ending contracting
with 5-Diamonds, that B doubled.
Neither side was vulnerable.
Ordinarily, when side has
shown different suits before
agreeing upon one of them, the
best opening lead is a trump,
to cut down croSS-ruffs between
declarer and dummy. A led his
6 of diamonds. US 9 covered.
B split honors, by covering with
his J. The declarer's K won
tie trick.
z laid down his Ace of spades.
Dummy ruffed the 4 of spades.
To start along his club suit,
dummy''s K was led. BIS Ace
won the trick. B dared not
lead a trump, as w held the
A-1O to pick up BIS Q-8, no
matter which one he led. B
shot back his last club, and
the declarer's 10 won the trick.
Dummy ruffed lead of the
declarer's 9 of spades. Then
the declarer discarded his last
spade upon a lead of dummy'S
Ace of hearts.
No Way to FOrestall
There was no way in the
world to prevent B from win
ming a trump trick, so dummy's
10 of diamonds was led. B
covered with his Q. The de-
clarer's Ace won the trick,
leaving the 8 of diamonds good
in BIS hand.
The declarer led his Q of
clubs, obliging B either to
trump with his top diamond or
lose the trick. He decided to
trump; if by any chance his
partner held a good club, he
could win with it later on.
ABB had won the only two
tricks they ever could win for
their side. w had won seven
of the nine tricks played up to
that time, and the last four
tricks could not fail to be
taken by the declarer's two re-
naming trumps and his two
established clubs. He made his
doubled contract of five-odd at
diamonds, as it was the only
make fitting the joint holdings
Of his side.
The hand would have played
poorly at either hearts or clubs.
At hearts Y must have lost
three trump tricks, one club
trick and probably one diamond
trick. II played at clubs, an
opening lead of the Ace Of
clubs, followed by a small club,
would effectively have pre-
vented dummy from trumping

SCHOOL PLAN
Brandywine PIT. A. Suggests
New High School Group
for Prince Georges

Recommendations that Prince
Georges county be divided
into four high school districts
have been received by t h e
school board from the Par
ent- Teacher Association of
Brandywine, according to
Nicholas Orem, superintendent
of public schools of the county.
The suggestion that four new
high schools replace the several
small institutions Of the county
came after the school board had
asked the Brandywine group for
an opinion on consolidating the
school there with the one at
Baden. This suggestion met with
diSapproval of the PIT. A.
In rejecting the proposed two
school consolidation, the aSsocia-
ton informed the board that
should the school there be closed
the majority of Brandwine pupils
would attend the school at Sur
rattsville rather than the Baden
institution.
1t was recently pointed out by
the board that attendance at the
BrandyWine and Baden schools
wa5 far below requirements. At
Brandywine, it was said, atten-
dance had fallen from SIS to 49
during this term.
Discussing the proposal of the
Brandywine group, Mr.. Orem de-
clared that the four-high school
suggestion was the best yet Of
fered in the way of consolidation
in the county. The proposal
would place one high school in
the northern section of the
county. one in the lower section,
and two in the vicinity of the
District Line.
