I was astonished, for the Chi
nese influence is just coming in.
It will get bigger and bigger as
the season goes on. 1t is just
in it's infancy now. It may last
two or three seasons. Any good
fashion does.
Styles Long Lived
But the salesgirl probably re-
fleets the attitude Of many store
people, and consequently gives
the wrong impression to thou
sands Of customers, for if you
can't believe a sales person, who
can you believe?
We make such a fuss and hub
bub about a new thing, and
then the next week there's still
another new thing, that per-
haps we do create the impress
sion that fashions come and go
that fast.
But to try and correct that
idea, let me say that any good
fashion will be repeated again
and again, will be featured for
weeks running, and will live for
at least two seasons.
Chinese to Stay
And So the Chinese influence
is far from over. It's just now
seen in rather high priced
things, and is merely beginning
to be noticed in lower price
lines.
You can get coolie sailors,
Chinese colors, tunics, high
collared frocks with Chinese
embroideries in medium price
lines, and from now on, they
will be available to everybody.
But don't think that is going
to kill them, for they'll go
right on, triumphant through
the season, and most likely into
the next year.
A Slim Tunic
To show you what a Chinese
tunic is, we've photographed an
afternoon frock made up Of
tunic and satin skirt. The
tunic is of a Chinese red wool
crepe, with metal buttons that
are put on in a novel criss-
cross fashion.
The satin skirt is black. Such
a costume is $19.75, and the one
photographed in misses sizes.
It is shown with a soft black
turban, peaked in the Schia-
parelli manner, priced SIS.

ton, write Miss Laville enclos-
ing self addressed, stamped en-
velope, or call District $3.50, ex-

Just before sailing for Hon.
olulu, I purchased this new fall
suit of wool crepe. It is fash
ioned in that lovely shade be-
tween silver grey and blue
at a distance it looks very grey,
but upon closer inspection one
can see it has a great deal Of
the blue mixed with it.
Two inverted pleats give the
necessary fullness at the bot
tom of the skirt, and the neck
is square but very high in front
and back. Rows of the crepe
covered buttons extend from
the shoulders to the waist.
lending an interesting new
note.
Three bands Of very wide and
luxurious grey fox form each
sleeve, and huge muff of the
same fur is carried with the
suit. I wear a beret-like hat
of the same material of the
dress, gray suede slippers and
gloves, and carry a flat suede
bag to match.
I've been noticing lately that
there is a definite change this
fall in shoes. One would think
that with winter coming on we
would be buying some good
warm slippers, but no-all the
smart fall slippers are either
pumps, or open-work shoes Of
some kind.
For evening they are showing
the most stunning new open
work sandals, in every color and
shade. OF course I think the
most beautiful are those made
up in gold or silver kid. And
sparkling rhinestone heels and
buckles are all the vogue now,
too. Really the new slippers
this season are positively re-
spendent..
Street wear naturally calls for
a more sedate model. but even
for the most informal occasions
the slippers will be fancy in de-
sign and trim.

Fashion Questions

Would black shoes, gloves and

BY all means, wear your black
accessories with both your dress
and coat. They're perfectly cor

The Rhymins
Optimist
BY ALINE MICHAELIS
Avenue of Good

1t dwells always within my
breast,
Desire that will not give me rest
Till good is through my life ex.
pressed.
From wells not of the earth it
springs,
This urge through my being
rings
And with divine insistence sings.
To give of faith and love and
hope
To those who falter, stumble,
grope,
Along life's sometimes barren
slope.
This is my never-ceasi1g prayer.
To make the pattern grow moro
fair
BY weaving threads of gladness
there.
And this the dream I long have
Wooed:
That I may be in every mood
An avenue of all things good.

usually coarse appearance.
Even if you feel that your
skin has the bloom Of a rosa
pack won't hurt. Here is the
formula for one that you may
make right in your own home.
Mix six ounces Of almond meal
with three ounces of Fuller's
earth and one ounce of tine
ture of benzoin. Add enough
witch hazel to make a thin paste
and then apply to the skin.
Removing Pack
While the pack is drying, have
O rest of about 20 minutes. You
can get those nerves under con-
troll while you are making your
skin beautiful.
Now you may remove the
pack with warm water. Then
throw a dash of cold water on
your face and gaze into the
mirror. Your skin is as smooth
As a baby's.
If you have but one or two
minutes to spare, you will find
an egg mask efficient for tight
ening the pores.
The white of an egg has
been used for this purpose for
many years. Now some inven-
tive person has found that the
yolk has an important part to
play in this brief facial. It
bleaches and removes discolora-
tions.
Here are the directions: sep
arate the yolk from the white
and smear the white on your
face; when it has dried thor
oughly, smear the yolk on top
of it; let the yolk dry; leave
the hardened mask on your
face for a few minutes, then
remove with cold water.
For Schoolgirls
This simple and inexpensive
process leaves the skin glowing
with vitality and gives firmness
to the facial muscles. It also
works miracles with sagging
chins and fatigue lines under
the eyes.
If you are a schol girl you
probably have no need for such
treatments. So on one of these
rainy fall days. put on your
oldest tweed coat and old felt
hat and journey forth into the
weather, for a god hike in the
country.
There is hardly any need to
tell you to wear your flat heeled
shoes. Turn your face up into
the rain as you walk. For there
is nothing as beneficial to that
schoolgirl complexion as rain
water.
It will bring color to your
cheeks and leave your COM
plexion like velvet. If you are
particularly ambitious, catch
the rainwater in a barrel out
side of the back door, and give
yourself a shampoo. 1t will
leave your hair as soft as silk.

ROdeO Rope Belts
It may be merely the influ-
ence of the rodeo at Madison
Square Garden, but have you
noticed that fashion seems to be
going in for rope belts in the
cowboy manner? Brightly col
ored silks and woolens in twist
ed rope effects tie themselves
around waistlines and pull
through drawstring necklines in

Beauty Queries
and Answers

Petite
Question: I am 22 years, 5 #.
/ in, and weigh 1873 pounds.
What should my correct weight
be? Lately my hair has been
falling out. Can you suggest q
remedy for this? l have light
hair, blue eyes and very white
skin, what shade of makeup
should be best suited for me for
evening use? My arms have
broken out with raSh.-T. M.
Answer: Weight is dependent
upon the individual structure of
the body, whether it is large or
small. You are probably a few
pounds overweight, and need
exercise and a sane method of
eating to round you off a bit.
Massage your hair each night
and morning. If dry, use an oil
treatment, if not massage and
try a dry shampoo. Evening
makeup is dependent upon the
color of your frock. With the
new rich dark shades so popu-
lar, a creamy powder, vivid lip
stick with a shading of blue,
violet eye7shadow, and a natural
rouge probably will do it. Your
arms may be dry from their
exposure to the sun, try a good
muscle oil, or see your druggist

ment,

SCIENCE EXHIBIT
AT EXPOSITION
DRAWS THRONES
SaVantS Are EIated at
Growing Interest of
Public.
BY DAVID DIETZ
Scripps Howard Science Editor

CHICAGO, July 1.-Two huge
spheres occupy the place Of honor
in the great room of the Hall of
Science at the Century OF
Progress"
One, hanging in the air, is the
light aluminium gondola in which
Professor Auguste Picard assembled
to the stratosphere. The other is
the heavy steel diving globe or
bathysphere in which DR.. William
Beebe descended a half mile below
the surface of the ocean.
These two spheres, representing
mans conquestS of the aerial heights
and the ocean depths, symbolic
mans many victories over the forces
Of nature to which the Hall of
Science is dedicated.
Scientists here for the summer
session of the American Association
for the Advancement of Science
steal away to the Hall of Science
whenever a lull in their programs
Of symposiums and round-table dis
cuSsions will permit.
But they have no monopoly on
the Hall of Science. From morning
to night there is steady throng Of
visitors in the building AT times,
the crowd is so thick in front of
some exhibits that it is impossible
to make your way through them.
It'll. i -
jubilant over this public reaction.
For it demonstrates beyond contra
dicton the high interest of the pub
lie in science. 1t proves, to use the
advertising phrase, that the public
has become science minded"
The great room of the Hall of
Science is an imposing high-ceil-
inged rectangular room, larger than
many theaters. The walls are white,
decorated with a modernistic pat
tern in gray. Tubular electric lights,
blue and green, run the whole
length of the ceiling.
The hall of science really is a
university, a college of popular sci
ence. Here are more scientific dem
onstrations than any one college
has ever been able to afford, the sort
of equipment that professors dream
about but never get the finance
committee to approve.

PROGRESSIVE bidding between
Il partners in contract should be
done with definite aim-that is,
to try to find the At of the hand.
Generally. it does not pay to play
a hand at no trump when either of
the two hands has a void suit, but
if the bidding indicates that part
ner has the missing suit well
stopped, and you feel that the
tricks necessary for game can be
won in the side suits, then you may
allow the hand to be played at no
trump.
The following unusually interest
ing hand was played in the recent
Ohio State Individual Champion
ship tournament of the American
Bridge League. Two pairs received
very nice scores on the board-one
pair making four no trump, and
another pair making four hearts
doubled.
