Dull Metal Leaves
Some of the most attractive
pieces or sets are of sapphire
colored stones with leaves Of
dull gold colored metal, in
rather large effects. pin, clip
bracelets and necklets available.
Then there are pieces of jade
green stones with lavish brass
acorns and leaves -. a smart,
stunning set.
Pearls are put with dull gold,
a profusion of both, but not by
any means overdone. 1t is such
pieces as these that might
appear after dark. Then there
are bracelets made of cord, end
ing in punches of stones that
look like ripe wild cherries. >.
and the cord has elastic in it,
so that it slips on and off.
Green, amber, sapphire color,
purple of grapes, ruby color
these are some of the stones that
are used. It's impossible to de-
scribe the many designs and
types. Prices are but 81 to $5.95.
A good suggestion for a street

your hat, and a matching brace

They have many advantages

space beautifully. They hold o
multitude of things, as not only
the top glassed-in cabinet space
can be used, but most of them
have drawers below. And near
ly all of them that are available
are beautiful, for it seems to be
one piece of furniture that is
copied well, pretty much in the
original designs. 1t seems i'm
possible to ruin it. All the good

CORRECT
MANNERS
By MRS. CORNELIUS
BEECKMAN
Deferred Announcement

Deferred Announcements
Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
We were married in June Of
this year. Is it permissible to
send wedding announcements
now? We both have friends
who do not know of our mar
riage as yet.
Of course we wouldn't send
wedding announcements II 1t
isn't the thing to do. N.
There isn't any rule about the
sending out of announcements
some months after the cere-
mony has been performed. 1t
depends on the wishes of the
people concerned, and on the
general convenience.
If many of your relatives and
friends already know it, 1t
would seem wiser just to tell the
others, and to write to those
whom you especially wish to
know about your marriage.
Often, 90. this personal kind
of announcement is followed by
a formal announcement, by the
brides parents, in the news
papers.

Col. George S. Patton is joint
master of the CObbler Hunt
with his wife. The CObbler, al
though not one of the most af-
fluent of American hunts mot
in the picture with WarrentOn),
is one of the most meticulOuS
about formal kit. 1t is one of

according to tradition, no less
a member than George Wash

whenever he could steal an
hour or so a1Ddy from his
many duties.
Among his hunting compan-
ions land this is a matter of
record were his two close
friends, Major Amber and Cap
tain Triplett.
Today there are Amblers and
Tripletts hunting with the Cob
bier over lands their ancestors
have held since pre-Revolution-
ary days, on horses they raise
themselves and train.
The tradition that one must
"dress up" for the field is
equally firmly established with
other Virginia hunts, such as
the MiddFeburg. the Orange
County, the Piedmont and the
Montpelier.
The Washington times., 1934-10-30

For hacking or clubbing,
clothes aren't so important, but
the hunting field is very, very
different. Regulation or one
might as we'll stay home and
not disgrace the hunt.
The Warrenton Hunt boasts
that it's M. F. H., Armory Car
hart, is one of the best dressed
men in the United States.
In the field his clothes are
the last work in convential per-
fectiOn and, away from the
stable, his tweedS are a marvel.

very neat, of English design,
and always, always wears col

the hunting matrons.
The Warrenton Hunt is green
with envy of the brilliant red
sweat shirt being sported by
Baldwin Spillman. 1t is darkly
suspected that he took a white
one and dyed it to get just the
color he wanted. He has a pas
sion for jersey or flannel shirts,
always brightly colored.
His friends claim that every
time Richard Plantagenet (nO
less) Kirkpatrick sells a horse
he buys a suit. He is the hon.
Orable secretary of the Hunt,
and one of those who insists
that members fall strictly in
line on the subject of clothes.

Few Small DOqs
Are Really
Tin0id
BY LIZ HUME

owners OF dogs OF the larger
breeds have, we have noted, a
habit of being just a bit super
Cilious about the smaller dogs.
They seem to think the toy
dogs are just that. Toys with
out the soul or spirit of the
bigger dogs.
What nonsense. We have
bred dogs of all sizes and have
discovered that the smaller
dogs are quite frequently even
more courageous than the larger
ones. Maybe because the mas
tiffs. Great Danes, ETC., realize
their strength and are fearful
of the consequences of losing
their tempers.
In justice to them we offer
this explanation of what seems
at times to be cowardice.
Heart of Lion
Few small dogs are really
timid. Take, for example, the
Pekingese. We are convinced
the little beasts have the hearts
of lions. They look somewhat
leonine, too, don't they?
We once temporarily had a
Pekingese, a very valuable one,
in our keeping. He was of an
especially distinguished line and
we wanted to be extra careful
in guarding him from injury.
But the pup, his name was
Chu-bee, refused to be made a
mollycoddle. He was a DOG,
he wanted us to understand,
and not a plaything.
At the time we were breed
ing German shepherds and we
had at the head of our stud a
particularly large and beautiful
dog. He was a handsome beast
and Chu-bee'S idol. Everywhere
the big dog went little Chu-bee
followed. He was tireless. No
walk was too long for him if his
hero was along.
Hero Worship
The bigger dog at first was
puzzled. He used to take Chu.
bee in his paws and stare at
him as if asking;
IF this is a dog, I'm an.
other"
Chu-bee would lie on his back,
his eyes fairly bulging out in
admiration, his tongue waving
backwards and forth.
We are convinced that Chu-
bee never for a minute admitted
to himself that he was less of
a dog than the shepherd. He
refused to accept the limitations
Of his size. He was a dog
among dogs.
There was nothing slavish in
his admiration. Plenty of hero
worship but more the worship
of a small boy for baseball
hero.

Unpopular With Boys

ONPVFNASSA w ASAA A\OSS
Dear Miss Fairfax:
We are three girl chums,
holding down jobs in a Gov
ernment office, and not at all
bad looking.
We we're very popular with
boys in our home town, and We
get along well enough with girls
here in Washington-but the
boys just don't see us. We read
your column daily. and feel
sure you will help us solve this
problem.
THREE LONESOME CHUMS
The best way to make friends
in a strange city is through your
church, your political club. or
some sports organization. in
which you happen to be inter
ested. You tell me you get along
very we'll with girls. Girls have
brothers, cousins. and boy
friends, and, if they're human.
they will probably introduce you
to some of them.

Exotic JeWeIry
Vogue Is
Growing
BY WILMA LAvILLE

We re so used to nothing
but tailored jewelry for any
daytime affair or costume
that we find it hard to ac-
cept the idea of exotic,
colorful stone jewelry for
street, luncheon and after
noon.
There is an American de-
signer who is doing stun
ming pieces, however, that
are suitable for almost any
thing but sports clothes.
They can be worn with
tailored suits, cloth dresses,
even afternoon clothes. And
I wouldn't be surprised if
some of it with pearls
wouldn t appear for informal
evening.

this clever designer, and she
belongs to the school of young

designs, are amusing, and paper
plates might also be used. The
centerpiece could be a great
wooden bowl of fruit and the
handsomer vegetables-or scoop
out a pumpkin, and fill it with
the fruit, surrounding the whole
with red leaves.
Orange or black candles could
be used, stuck in bottles painted
with black paint. Have lots OF
black cat and witch favors
about-and a big jug of cider!
Here is a menu thought:
The Washington times., 1934-10-30

But it does stand to reason
that with the existing vogue for
the decollete in evening dress,
bathing costumes and lovely
sheer hose, it is quite necessary
for girls to keep themselves free
of unsightly groWths of hair.
We often wonder why women
were created with this unnec-
essary annoyance, but as long
as it exists something must be
done about it.
Other Methods
Face hair should be treated
by either bleaching or cleo
trolysis-other methods are
either too harsh or too unsafe.
But other hair growths may be
easily and safely removed by a
good depilatory.
Most beauticians consider SUI
perfluous hair a very definite
beauty problem and they have
bent their efforts toward max
ing it's removal as simple and
pleasant as possible.
The latest effort is a depila-
tory kit which is attractive
enough for any dressing table.
This kit contains a jar of de-
pilatory powder, a bottle of
soothing oil, a mixing dish anG
glass mixer-all fitted into an
adorable box that looks like a
makeup box of the thinnest
wood.
Treatment
The treatment is quite simple.
You make a thin paste of two
parts powder and one part cold
water and apply it. Allow it to
remain for three minutes and
then wash off. Smooth on a
little soothing oil. Even the
most sensitive skin does not be-
come irritated, and there is not
a vestige of hair left.
Without the faintest injury,
skin is made smooth and lovely.
You can dress with the assur-
ance that your personal dairti.
ness will not be questioned.
Olive Oil for Dry Skin
Dear Miss Shelby:
Can you tell me of a good oil
I can use on my entire body
after taking a hot bath. My
doctor has prescribed hot baths,
but inasmuch as I know this
will dry the natural oils Of the
body, I want to take the neces-
sary precautions. Please help
me. Sincerely, R. S. T.
Dear Mrs. R. S. T.:
There is nothing better for
your dry skin condition than
olive oil. After your hot bath,
rinse all traces of soap from the
skin and dry it carefully. Then
apply a liberal amount Of olive
oil to the entire body, rubbing
it in thoroughly.

Olive oil gives a gloriously
smooth texture and will not

rare cases does it promote the
growth of hair. l would sug-
gest that you give your body an
olive oil rub at least twice a
week.
Face Lines

Can you tell me of a mas
sage that will eliminate the lines
The Washington times., 1934-10-30

that run from my nose to the
corners of my mouth? Sincerely,
E. M.
Dear Miss E. M:
For the lines around the nose,
start with the middle finger of
both hands and smooth from
the lips outward, using a good
nourishing cream. Do this until
you feel the glow of increased
circulation and the cream is we'll

Inns, cats and ghosts in the
decorations, they don't bother
much further.
Adds Zest
However, if you wish, you
could have them all come in
costume, which would add zest
to the occasion, and you might
let them have a peanut hunt,
with prizes Tor those who find
the greatest number.
Paper napkins and paper
plates will do equally we'll for
them, and the same general
scheme of decoration may be
used-though it need not be
so elaborate.
Instead of filling the center
pumpkin with fruit, hollow it
out. and carve a good face on
both sides, so that a candle
placed in the middle will shine
on every small face grouped
about the table.
