five persons in a Chicago-bound

The plane landed safely at

pilot of the plane, an American

after taking off, the plane ran
into a driving rainstorm and the

"Then, with the ship at only
800 feet elevation I spotted a
chimney with the words Lowell

the President for listening to

Speaking on the eve OF the
Maine elections under the
auspices of the American Coali-

Agriculture Rexford Tugwell as a
''BolsheVik chatterer," and de-
nounced Upton Sinclair, Socialist
Democratic nominee for governor
Of California, as a "pandering
demagogue."

What woman hasn't worried

Now, by means of a new
method of knitting stockings,
rings are eliminated. BY the old
method, one carrier" held all

are used, with thread from all
three put in alternately. In
that way the unevenness of the
thread cannot make a ring, as
it has done before.

Smart Ideas in
Summer Shoes

E Grass shoes for men are hav-
ing quite a run at some of the
resorts this year. The reason
is because they are so cool,
though they are not hard to
look at, and have a very de-
cidedly sports-like aspect.
They are made from strong
fiber Sisal grass from South
America, and are woven into a
much-ventilated oxford type.
They have nodded leather soleS,
and are the acme of comfort.
They are excellent for vacation
wear.
The Washington times., 1934-08-03

than the evening types, though
1t may be that we see them, all
the glitter will be there in the
evening pieces, too.
For afternoon there are Rus
sian pieces, with red and green
stones, or topaz set In an en-
graved leaf motif. These pieces
will not be expensive, yet they
will be colorful, and good with
dark wool or silk dresses for
animation and color relief.
Bracelets Are Bigger
Generally speaking, bracelets
are wider than ever, and clips
larger. Clip earrings will again
be good. They follow the line
of the ear. There are number
of clips Of the duette type
two clips that fasten to a
brooch, and may be combined
with the brooch for a large
piece, or separated and worn as
three separate pieces. That's q
grand ensemble idea.
For afternoon, or for more
formalized silk frocks, there are
Wedgewood pieces, and some
cathedral blue stones that are
attractive. There are also
moonstones set with rhine
stones. Faceted glass is used in
rhinestone bracelets to give a
slave effect. Some of these are
formal enough for dinner and
evening wear.
Gold Victorian Types
There is also excellent "victo-
rian" gold jewelry, which will
fit into the 189O-19OO fall FASH
ion picture. And there is "Wat-
teau" jewelry, fairly formal,
which isn't described well
enough to give you clear idea
Of what it is.
Snap-in initial bracelets and
pins will continue to be popular,
and there will be new matching
compacts to go with them. A
nice cool thought is that these
things will be excellent Christ
mas gifts.
