reports Of the ball. All the
costumes and decorations will
be in keeping with that CLAM
orous period in which Marco
Polo penetrated China and Per-
STA. and returned to tell the
tale to his Venetian cronies.
Chinese, Persian and Venetian
costumes will set the tone.
Oriental World
Crossing the threshold of the
ballroom will be like literally
crossing the Great Wall Of
China. Oriental perfumes and
incense will be waited to the
noStrils, the shrill twinkling
music Of a Chinese orchestra
will greet the ears, and the
gorgeous red and gold dragons
Of Kubla Kahn's court will
meet the eyes.
Streets of Pekin will be
reproduced complete, with jug
glers, tumblers and dancers,
and Marco Polo's own entry
into the Emperor's court will
be enacted in the pageant.

obtain different shapes that

There is no limit to the num-
ber of brow patterns you can
create. Why not experiment a
bit with the transparent eye
brow Shaper? Find out which
style imparts the most alluring
effect.
Should you face appear too
wide or too round, the eyebrows
should extend only to the outer
corners of your eyes; but should
your face appear too long. then
the eyebrows must extend be-
yond the outer corners of the
eyes.
Don't pluck your eyebrows
too thin. There is no greater
mistake. It gives the face a
hard expression and this
method Of tweezing was out of
fashion several years ago.
Should Sterilize
Eyebrow tweezers should be
sterilized before use. When the
brows are plucked the pores in
the skin open. And if the
tweezers are not really clean,
germs may enter these pores
and cause blemishes and erup-
tions.
Before the tweezing is start
ed a coating Of cold cream
should be smoothed over the
brows and permitted to remain
on for time. Then the eye
brows should be brushed into
shape with a small eyebrow
brush, and the plucking itself
should be done. After the
tweezing, the remaining cream
should be removed and an
astringent applied to close the
pores.

ing where the tweezer guide
and pencil may be purchased,

it to scorch and smoke; there
are no burned edges on the
meat; 1t is uniformly cooked; it
will be just as tender as when
broiled, and most Of the juices
will be retained.
Contrasts
For broiling, meats are usual
ly scared with the flame on
full and then either the flame
reduced or the broiler pan is
lowered so that the meat is far
ther from the flame.
The length of time for scar
ing will vary, depending on the
person who is doing the broiling,
and the distance the meat is re-
moved from the flame, or the
degree to which the flame is re-
duced.
Therefore, it is hard to know
that every time even the same
cut Of meat is broiled the re-
suits will be uniform.
Baked Slice Of Ham
Place a slice of ham, one inch
thick, in a pan or baking dish
and put it in the oven at 500 de-
greeS F. for SO minutes. Cloves
add spice to the flavor, but are
not necessary. If the ham is
very salty it will have to be
soaked in hot water for a few
minutes before baking. Many
like to add a cup of pineapple
juice, or rub the ham snce with
dry mustard and cover with
milk to bake. Bake at about 400
degrees F. for so minutes. If
milk Is used to baste the ham
slice it should be cooked at a
lower temperature for a longer
time, $50 degrees F. for an hour
or until it is tender.
Baked Lamb Chops.
Select six or more chops about
one and one-half inches thick,
and place them in a baking dish.
Sprinkle with salt and pepper
and bake at 400 degrees F. for
SO minutes.
Baked POrterhOuSe Steak.
Select porterhouse steak
weighing about three and one
half pounds. This steak should
be cut about two and one-half
inches thick. Place on the rack
in a roaSter or in a large utility
pan. Scar at 500 degrees F. for
twenty minutes. Then sprinkle
with salt and pepper and bake
at 275 degrees F. for 80 to 35
minutes. Or it can be baked at
400 degrees F. for As minutes
without soaring it.

# you have been longing to
wear braids around your head
and look taller as a consequence,
but find that they just don't
seem to become you, my coiffure
is an excellent substitute.
In the front, the effect is al
most the same as braids. The
line Of curls that peep up over
the crown of the head looks just
about the same as a braid and
it gives the added inches that I
need, too. Across the front Of
my forehead there is the smooth,
unwaved line from temple to
temple, with just a pretty swirl
over the right eye and a clean,
decided left-side part to keep it
from being too severe. A few
curls over each ear and the front
might be that Of a coiffure with
braidS.
The back view is a surprise.
Many think it is much more
youthful than braids and more
suited to an ingenue! From the
nape of the neck to the top Of
the head there is just a mass of
small cUrlS- sort that have
to be brushed around the finger.
The general effect is circular
and the top row must be pinned
up so that it can be seen from
the front.
The side view, however, is the
one that I like best. 1t is more
sophisticated looking than
either the front or the back and
I am especially partial to the
left side where the part shows.
Somehow, this coiffure gives me
the feeling of youth and smart
ness that I admire; it isn't a
label that tells everyone I'm a
Sub-deb; neither is it an "old-
fashioned" suggestion.
It takes a little longer in the
morning to arrange the curls, but
it is we'll worth the trouble and
in the evening it looks perfectly
grand! I wouldn't blame any
girl for initiating this coiffure.
especially if she's my type and
needs to look little taller than
she actually is!

COLORFUL PERENNIAL PRINTS FRESH LUSR THE DARK

Should Be
Peaceful
BY MARTHA WINSLOW

Make the child's bedtime a
quiet, peaceful time, not the
climax Of the most exciting
hour of the day.
BY the end of the day a child
is tired and If romping or bois-
ferrous play is permitted he is
likely to become over-excited,
tense and in no condition to
begin the nights sleep.
No Rough House"
In many households the pc
riod before bedtime is the only
time the father can be with the
children. Daddy likes vigorous
play, he likes to toss the chill.
dren in the air, tease them and
jump them about, for he wants
to SEE them having a good
time.
Their shrill cries, Daddy, me
next" show how excited they
are. They enjoy the fun but
they pay for it by a restless
night of disturbed sleep.
Rough and tumble play has
its place but it is not suitable
to the late afternoon or eve
ming. Let daddy keep his fun
for Sunday and holiday morn
ingS.
The best amusement for
lust before bedtime" is a ouiet
game or, better still, a story
either read or told. 1t should
be a soothing story, too, not one
that tends to throw the chill
dren into a fever of excitement
and fill them with fears that
will haunt their sleep.
Very small children should
be in bed before the grownups
of the family sit down to their
evening meal. The older child
may eat with the family but
he should be ready for bed
Immediately at the close of the
meal.
Bathing the youngsters just
before bedtime is a good plan.
1t insures that the child is
sweet and clean for the night
and a bath induces restful
sleep.
Avoid Scenes
After a comfortable bath and
dressed in their night clothes
and wrappers the children may
eat their own evening meal and
have their story just before

NEW YORK.. Jan. 15.-The
Beaux Arts Ball. that annual
brawl at which the artists,
architects and aristocrats Of
Gotham get together to cut
their maddest capers, is with
us again. But with a differ
ence-and what, a difference!
Heretofore, the Beaux Arts
Ball has been as exclusively
masculine as a stag party or
smoker: the men have run it
for, by and Of themselves.
Women folk have been told
to be good little girls and
stay by the fireside until the
great night, when they might
blossom forth somewhat in the
manner of Cinderella at the
ball.

Now, however, there's a New
Deal at the good old Beaux

The new prints are not only
summery types for south-bound
travellers, but there are winter
versions too.
They're not necessarily so
dark. for their chief aim in
life is to be cheerful. But they
are decidedly new looking.
Must Be Different
Each season we say "the
prints are more unusual than
ever" and each season it seems
true. But this time it is more
so. The patterns are different,
and to be smart they must be
different.
There are both large effects
and small designs, with the
larger patterns apparently the
most popular,
Even when designs are small,
they often repeat themselves in
such a way as to make a big
pattern too.
COlOrful Effects
Prints are mostly colorful,
too. Grounds are in color, or
prints are of cream, beige, gray,
brown or black.
More often than not the
dress takes plain color trim.

scarf, sash, or drapery, so that
the accent color Of the print Is
brought out more strongly.
Some Of the designs are called
wallpaper prints" and most at
tractive they are too, with
SplaShy flower designs, neat
blocked off pattern, or colorful
grouping Of smaller designs.
Others are Russian in theme,
while still others are so differ
ent that they are, hard to
classify.
Plain Color Trimming
We've photographed a dress
that illustrates many points.
It is in a small printed design
that repeats itself to make a
stripe. It is in multi-color ef-
feet, with green or red pre-
dominating, and the solid color
trimming is in green or red.
With Cowl Scarf
An attractive feature Of the
dress is the scarf collar which
is loose and may be tied in
many ways, over the high but
toned neckline. There's q belt

 Frederic March, William Hop kins, George Raft and Helen MacS are featured in this frank story of a young Park Avenue society debutante who wants love, dares experiment with it, yet fears it.

 In the meantime, they become interested in a pair of lovers, George Raft and Helen Mack, whom they meet in a speakeasy. These law-crushed kids are railroaded into prison and Miss Hopkins, through reasons which she can't explain, tries to help them.
 Acting as a go-between for the pair, she learns what true, fine, uncompromising love really means.
