The Washington times., 1934-12-10

Last summer Dorsey Offutt,
having just been associated with
the firm Of E. Hilton Jackson and
William E. Richardson, took q
trip to the wild and woody West
but he never had such an expe-
rience in that part of the country
as happened to him Saturday.
Several weeks ago Mr.. Offutt
was flattered by a client from
the West Coast who engaged him
to collect a 100000 judgment
that had been recovered in a suit
in California.
Mr.. Offutt wrote letters to at
torneys there and received in re-
turn a copy of the docket which

,tween Mr.. Offutt and other at
torneys of the city, the client ap-
preached Mr.. Offutt in the lobby
of the Jackson suite and said:
"You couldn't get my $780,
900 but am going to get you"
He extracted from his trouser
legs what Mr.. Offutt probably
thought was the largest gun he
had ever seen.
Mr.. Offutt ducked into Mr..
JackSon'S office and locked the
door.
Into the office suite then came
Mr.. jackson himself, his days
work done and thinking of the
manner in which a good Bap-
tist could spend a Sabbath. Mr..
Jackson saw the man brandish.
ing the giant weapon and dived
for his office-only to find the
door locked against him.
Very nimbly, Mr.. Jackson.
without losing a second, dipped
into another office off the lobby.
It was Ward Mccarthy and
Miss George, the switchboard
operator, who saved the day.
Mr.. Mccarthy engaged the en-.
ragged caller in conversation
while Miss George plugged all
lines that ended at Police Head
quarters. Eventually Mr.. Nc
Carthy diSarmed the man.
The unwelcome guest was taken
to the First precinct and later to

TICKETS GIVEN
80 DRIVERS

Approximately 80 motorists
have received tickets for traf-

enforce county traffic laws be-
gan in Silver Spring.
Warnings to drivers were
given by Montgomery County
police about a month ago be-
fore the drive was opened. Fol.
lowing this several persons re-
ceived tickets for parking in re-
stricted areas.
When Paul M. Coughlan, newly

Board of County Commissioners,

drive. Again motorists were

The administration goes even
further in the matter of light and
ventilation. It specifies that each

square foot of glass area for each
10 square feet of floor area and at
least As per cent of the glass area
must be openable for ventilation.

One room, at least, must have
100 square feet of floor space; one
must have at least 100 square feet
and others, excepting the kitchen,
must have at least 10 square feet.
Homes financed under the mu-

be urban homes, but central heat

Keep Awake
Do not go off and leave the
baby while he is feeding as he
may fall asleep before it is fin

given to the baby with the idea
Of putting him to sleep.
If this is done he will learn
to associate the two ideas and
that will mean trouble when
weaving is necessary.
It is for this reason partly
that baby should take his bot
tie either sitting or half reclin-
ing. After he has finished and
had his minute or two over your

then let him go to sleep.

Wine and Cordial Return As F|avors

what I'm vaguely thinking of
doing now but-we did not
know.
France, as we do know, tops
the list as a land of good foods,
especially good sauces and de-
lightful pasteries and sweets.
I've helped, for nearly 10
years, a man in France to cook
certain American dishes. He is
a man with a nice little restau-
rant somewhere in or very near
the gates of the city of Paris
and he has written to me upon
every occasion of need of Amer
ican recipes.
I think a very fine idea would
be for me to go to Paris as soon
as possible and not for pleasure,
but for business! 1 want that
especially fine chef to teach me
all about the use of wines and
cordials in sauces, pasteries. ice
creams such as frozen pudding
and the like.
Which should be served cold
and which should be served at
room temperature? All this
we should know and most of
us either never knew or have
forgotten. What, then, do you
think Of the idea? The column,
typewriter and all, plus envel-
opeS and paper, would go right
along with me, under my right
arm Of course.

Hold baby in an upright po-
Sition in your lap while he is
taking his bottle. Hold the
bottle in place for him and so
that the nipple is constantly
full of milk and not half full
Of air.
Retains Food
II the bottle is allowed to
drop into a horizontal position
so that air enters the nipple
baby as he sucks will swallow
large quantities Of air which
later he will have to belch up.
If he belcheS while lying down
he is apt to regurgitate some
Of his food. This splitting up
is one of the things Of which
so many mothers complain to
me. The explanation is simple
and can be easily avoided by
holding the bottle in the right
position.
To prevent belching raise the
baby after feeding to your
shoulder and carefully pat him
on the flat of the back for
two or three minutes. If he
has swallowed any air you will
be able to hear him bring it
UP and know that all danger
of his splitting up has been
removed.
Too Much Handling
Then lay him gently down
on his bed. Too much ham
ding after feeding is not good
for him.
Twenty minutes is the long
est time and five the shortest
that should be allowed for TAX
ing the bottle.
If baby seems to be slow
about it be sure the nipple is
not plugged and that the milk
Is dripping freely.

Choose JeweIry
That Brings
Charm
By LISA DUMONT

The way you wear jewelry
and the type of jewelry you
wear are direct influences on
beauty.
CareleSSly chosen ornaments,
worn poorly, can detract from
the lovelieSt woman's charm.
The woman with numerous
chinS, or just two chins, doesn't
add a bit to her appearance by
wearing a tight choker-type Of
necklace.
Good Taste
This style ornament looks
Just as out of place on her as
q long scrawny type Of woman
with the long, thin neck.
Just as makeup adds or de-
tracts from the appearance Of
the face, so do necklaces influ-
ence the contour of the face
and neck as well.
There are several simple
rules which, If followed, will
keep you on the straight path
of good taste, which, after all,
IS q direct aid to beauty. In
this day and age when glitter
ing jewels Of all varieties have
come into their own, it IS easy
to be led astray by q particu-
lar style Of ornament.
DiStractinT
r you know that your neck
Is not your most attractive fea-
ture, that the skin looks old
and rinkled, don't think Of
wearing beads which attract
attention to it by their size and
coloring.
Instead, draw attention away
from it by wearing a smart
clip or something similar else
where, perhaps in your hat.
# your neck is long and
thin, stick to the choker type
of necklace, don't choose a
long strand Of beads. The for.
mer type will help to shorten
the appearance Of your neck
and give it a rounded out ef-
feet.
When In Doubt
# you have a short, fat neck
don't go in for large beads.

By MARIAN NIXON

I wanted a coat that would
be comfortable for late winter
and early spring wear. Some
thing usable and stylish. Kal-
loch, who designed all my cos
tunes for my latest picture,
suggested a summer ermine,
and that is what I am wearing
here.
The fur is very soft and a
lovely yellow beige in color.
Lined with satin to match, the
coat looks well with any shade
gown or suit that care to
wear under it. The design is
Swagger-made a little longer
than the usual three-quarter
length, and the sleeves are
modified bishop. made with
puffs that come just above
the narrow cuffs.
AS THE COAT is intended
for any and every occasion, I
believe the looseness is to be
preferred to the much-talked-
about fitted coats that are gain
ing in favor at the moment.
1t is delightful to slip on over
a tailored suit for street wear:
it looks equally we'll over a flat
crepe and will not muss it
should the gown be trimmed.
For evening wear it looks quite
well, too. I shall undoubtedly
use it during the summer
months over soft party dresses,
especially should I go out eve
nings in an open car.
Last, but by no means the
least, my coat is a flattering
color. 1t matches my hair and
forms a contrast to my dark
eyes. However, this shade looks
equally well on girls with dark
hair.
The Washington times., 1934-01-24

Then, too, there must be
something worn under the
black gown, and if it is uni
form, it will look much better
when they march, and a bit OF
the white shows. Many OF
them are attending parties be-
fore and after too, when a
white dress seems to be the only
really right thing to wear.
To Wear Later
If it's a matter Of limited
budget, of course the only
thing to do is to buy a dress
that can be worn later, can be
used until every bit Of the bene-
fit is gotten from it.
And that's easy, for most OF
the dresses shown now for mid
year graduation are Of the type
that can be worn many times
afterward.
A semi-sports dress that can
be used all summer for general
day wear, or for afternoon is
an ideal choice. It should be in
white, if that's the selection Of
your school, or in pastelS per-
haps, as some Of the Junior
Highs are wearing pastels.
There are many smart and
suitable frockS downtown, eSpe-
cially right now. as the stores
are making an effort to provide
the correct sort of dresses. Some
have long sleeves, some shorter
puffed sleeves. others have no
sleeves and a jacket.
With New Sleeves
We've had a beautiful dress
photographed, which has every
requisite Of smartness for grad
uation, and will be a good sum-
mer frock later. It is Of white
selni-rough crepe, with pleated
bertha collar held by white but
tons. The bottom of the skirt
has a pleated flounce too.
Notice that the puffed sleeves
are wide, but are not high on
the shoulders. That's the newest
sort Of sleeve, and will be good
next summer. This dress is
$685., and is in misses sizes, IL
to 20. Similar styles come in
pastels.

showing this dress, write Miss

everyday folk, even as you and
I, are joining to celebrate his
fifty-second birthday.
In every large city in the
country, and in many smaller
ones, a Presidents Birthday
Ball will be held on January
3Oth, and birthday cakes will
be cut and toasts drunk to the
most popular President Of the
+ United States in many years.
New Creations
AS American as the Roose-
velts themselves, will be the
decorations, entertainment and
costumes of the Birthday Ball.
American designers, through
Morris Rentner, president OF

their newest creations for the
affair, And they've done it
in a thoroughly patriotic man

Peach, green and silver, the
State colors of Georgia, is an
other combination favored for
the ball. For in characteristic
fashion, the President is turn

into a gift to the nations chill

little ones who have been Grip

All the proceeds from the va

nearest to the presidential
heart. And Georgia's green,
peach and silver will therefore
be the dominant colorS Of the

Great fashion trends are

designers.

shade, is expected to be spring

with red and white.
