"Are you sure?" they asked her.
'T try" she replied.
They watched her. She carefully laid the
parrot on the floor of the kitchen. Then she
took big washpan and set it upside down over
him.
Right beside the pan she knelt and ex-
tended both fists before her. Slowly and softly
she began talking in the weird tones Of the

Beware of a misfit' are the words of

ticularly by rebidding values already in

Partner Bids Two No Trumps.
This response on the first round is, as
you know, force to game unless your
opening bid was psychic. Though it
contains less indication of slam devel-
opment than a Jump response in suit,
nevertheless, proper slams may be
the opening bidders first rebid is usual
ly the factor which tells the responder
then and there whether there are slam
possibilities not. If the responder
could visualize slam before hearing his
partners rebid, his hand would really
call for Jump bid in a suit or, more
probably, three no trumps. Hands can
come up where this would not be true,
but I doubt if 1t could be said of one in

II you want to find the most becom-

a flower. of solid black sequins, forms
the whole front of the hat, with two
of the scallops coming next to the
face to give a soft and becoming line.
But the part which makes the hat so
utterly charming is the stiff black veil
which Is put on In circle around the
seQuin design, so that it reaches to the
nose in front, and in back Of the
sequins stands up, much as the spread
tail Of q peacock does. One cannot
imagine person wanting to wear the
veil differently, but ito is possible, nev-
ertheless. to place 1t fat against the
crown of the hat
Another black net hat of a much
less sophisticated type, which We have

Just as good as these lovely
black models are brown ones

which is sketched, was close

gold sequins around 1t. The hat
dipped noticeably over the right
eye, and just beyond the dip the
band widened and went into a
large golden circle Of sequins
which covered almost the whole
side of the hat. With it is worn
a pert brown nose veil.
A LITTLE farther down the street

would look so well with the little hat
that we paused to inspect it. OF brown
lace, which is perennially good, 1t

ruffies over the shoulders. In the back

on each side somehow makes you
want to wear it at a particularly
rakish angle, and feel especially
smart In It. With it comes lovely
little white scarf which is only a
narrow band around the neck, but
which flares in front, giving a
jabot like effect. This combina-
ton of hat and scarf, which
somehow has the look of snow

derfully well.
THE last hat we found, which is also
sketched, made our mouth water,
and the dress that we discovered to 60

The little hat is white velvet, very close
fitting, made in the simplest possible
way, with it's only relief row of black
glycerin feathers going over the top of
the cap and extending from one side
to the other. The feathers, which re-
semble monkey fur, except that they
are shorter and finer, are the perfect
touch that the little hat needs. They
transform 1t from a mere lowly head

The dress that suits it to perfection
is of heavy white faille, made straight
from yoke to hem in the front, and
fitted at the waist by sash with big
| bow in the back. The beautiful square
yoke in both back and front is o:
rich black lace. The neck is high,
round and plain, but outlining the yoke
around the armholes and where it joins

lace. To give added fullness around
the arTnholes, a second hidden ruffle
is inserted. The whole effect must be

show the hat of to its full advan-
tage. Such frock we found in thin
black crepe, to go with a silver sequin
turban. The hat, by the way, fitted to
the head almost as close as hair, but
was relieved OF severity of line by a
little ridge of the sequins running up
to the center of the top, and by tiny
black nose veil only in front. And now
