There are cinema shops for
dresses, hats. blouses and &C
ceSsories. So if you have a
yen for the latest thing you
see in the movies, there's at
last chance now, and a good
one, that you can have it.
Lacey Things
Simplest of all, of course, is
to make what you cannot find.
And just in time to back up
this suggestion, we have re-
ceived photograph of collar
and cuff set just like those
that Anne Boleyn wore in
Henry the Eighth" which you
may have seen a month or so
ago.
It's the sort of fresh, lacey
thing that will dress up any
dark frock beautifully. If you
must wear your dull winter
dresses for another month or
so, this collar and cuff set is
ideal to give them life and
spirit. And if you have a new
silk frock for spring that needs
light touch, here is the solu-
tion of your problem. All things
lacey and meshy are smart this
spring, especially with very
open stitch, as has this set.
Easy to Make
Nothing could be much easier
to make, or much more -ineX-
pensive, for the collar and cuffs
are crocheted of crepe paper.
You will not be surprised if
you've made any of the things
we've run before, for you will

10 nara TO Betsy OasWeh
remember them all, but I par
ticularly took note physically
as well as mentallyD of some
delectable little sandwiches
made of graham bread. cream
cheese and chopped black wal
nuts, which were cut into tiny
squares, with the bread sliced
q bit thicker than usual, so
that they made little cubes in
stead of the regulation lean
and willowy sandwich.
Then there we're some rounds
Of toast, which were spread
with a concoction of melted
cheese, mixed with butter. and
which had grated hard,boiled
egg Sprinkled over the top.
These were kept hot in a muf-
fin dish, and were wonderfully
good.
There were rolls of Clipped
beef, stuffed with cream cheese
and horseradish, fastened with
q toothpick, and stuck into a
large grapefruit, which thereby
became a very "fretful porcu-
pine" Some little cakes melt
ed in the mouth, and olives
and nuts appeared convenient
ly in lovely old silver dishes.
Added Pleasure
It was all so beautifully
done, and so well-appointed,
that it gave to the guests an
added pleasure, and we all lin
gered long beyond the usual
homing hour, loath to leave the
warm atmosphere of hospitality
perfectly extended.
I wonder why it is that
many people do not realize the
necessity for careful attention
to detail around a tea-table?
So often there is the attitude
that anything will do" on the
part of the hostess, who gen.
orally comes scurrying in from
a committee meeting, or busy
afternoons shopping, having
left the situation to the cook
or maid, who rarely have any
imagination whatsoever about
tea.
There is always the tend
ency in the kitchen to send up
left-overs in the way Of tag
ends of cake, tired sandwiches,
ETC., unless there are definite
orders given to the contrary.
For Relaxation
A well appointed and PRO-
vided tea is a delightful addi-
tion to the hostess repertoire,
and, if properly done, results
in an hour of the most pleas
ant communion for friends
whose days are usually too
crowded for much quiet con-
versation. The telephone habit
which has developed in the
last few Years as a medium
for the exchange of thoughts,
social and friendly, is one of
the most pernicious we have;
The Washington times., 1934-03-10

Take the toddler. or aDouC
and his baby brother just be-
ginning to walk. 1t is impos-
sible to explain to the younger
child the principles of fair play
and it is obviously unfair to
expect the older one always to
be the one to yield.
The Easy Way
But because the older child
can be reasoned with and gen.
orally, under pressure, will give
in to the "baby," mothers too
often force him to do just that.
It is an easy way to settle an
argument temporarily.
In the long rnn, however, it
is bad for both. The older
child will resent the injustice
of it and the baby will come
to the conclusion that he is
boss of the two. Naturally,
once he has discovered that he
can make Big Brother yield,
he will expect him to do so
again.
Again, if the older child is
permitted to tyrranize over the
younger, he will be apt to de-
velop into an unpleasant little
bully. And the cowed younger
will lose all sense of independ-
ence. Especially if the first
born is, as too often is the
case, the mothers darling and
beloved.
Wise Balance
Maintaining a nice balance
between the two extremes re-
quires an infinite degree OF
tact.
Another problem presents it.
self when, in a family Of sew
eral children, one child stands
out by reason of lV)ks, person
atty or special gifts. Such chill
dren ought to be only ones for
the unconscious harm they can
do their less fortunate |<others
and sisters.
For example, take two sisters,
one a beauty and the other
not so pretty. No one who has
never been the ugly duckling in
a family that boasted Of a
beauty can understand the Suf-
fering such a combination can
cause.
The beauty is admired by
''mama's" friends, strangers
turn to look at her in the
street, later on she has her pick
of the beaux. It takes all the
tact the mother can muster to
handle such a situation.
In the Shade
I know of one family in
which there were two such sis
ters. The pretty one really was
extraordinarily good looking.
Her beauty quite eXtinguished
the really attractive features of
the younger girl. 1t was not
until Beauty married that the
other sister was recognized as
even passably good looking.
Looks not being stressed so
much in boys it is apt to be
the lad with personality" that
dominates the household. The
other child or children know
only too we'll that Junior" is
the one over whom visitors go
into ecstacies of admiration.
His bright sayings and charm
ing manners throw them into
the shade. Their less brilliant
gifts are entirely overlooked.
The mother of large fam
lily, loving each one of them,
sometimes feels she is a juggler,
balancing a dozen little balls
in the air. keeping each in it's
proper place and not permit
ting any one to monopolize her
attention.

GIANTS, CARDS
OPEN SERIES

The series that will 60 a long
ways toward definitely determin-
ing the 1884 National League pen
nant winner opens today in New
York when the pace-setting New
York Giants engage the second
place st. Louis Cardinals in the
first of four games.
The New Yorkers have had the
pennant virtually clinched for
weeks, but the next four days will
tell whether or not the Cardinals
can carry the fight to the end of
the season. The Giants enter the
series with q five and one half
game lead and only three or four
straight victories for the Cardi-
mails will cut seriously into that
margin.
The Cardinals remain as the
last obstacle for the Giants. Fol
lowing their four games with the
st. Louis club the New Workers
engage such teams as Boston,
Philadelphia and Brooklyn, and
any progress they make against
the Cardinals makes their task
easier in the remaining games.
Deans Figure
The brothers Dean figure to
cause the Giants trouble, if past
performance mean anything. Paul
and Jerome have won nine from
the champions this year while los
ing two, and that's the most i'm
pressive pitching record compiled
against the Giants this year.
Thanks to Carl Hubbell'S excel
lent pitching and his timely hit
ting and the Philadelphia PhillieS'
victory over the Cardinals the
Giants today are five and one
half games in front.
Hubbell pitched the Pittsburgh
Pirates into submission, 80,
allowing them only six hits as
he chalked up his twentieth
mound triumph Of the year.
His timely single in the seventh
scored the winning run.
The champions also owe debt
of gratitude to the Phillies, who
rallied to beat the Cardinals, 81.
The Washington times., 1934-09-13

be unveiled to public gaze until
the Holy Cross game. Reports
from Worcester indicate that the
Cards will have to have something
UP their sleeves if they propose TO
hold the Crusaders in check.
Counting on SOphs
Up at Georgetown, Coach Hag-
erty is hoping that several OF his
sophomoreS will come through
with flying colors. The Hoyas are
well fixed for a first team, but are
worried about replacements: II
the sophs come through everything
will be fine; if not, G. U. faces a
tough road.
Another lack on the Hilltop is a
good punter. Developing kickers
is more than q hard task when q
youngster reaches college age. II
he couldn't kick in high or prep
school, the chances are he will not
kick we'll in college. If George
town had a real punter the Hoya
squad would be improved fully 100
per cent.
The Washington times., 1934-09-13


The Jungleers blew their sixth
one-run game in ten starts yes
terday. The Boston Red Sox beat
them one to nothing in one of the
greatest games it has been my
good fortune to see in many q
day. What is more, the Tigers,
failing to register a run yesterday,
h ave played ten consecutive
games in which they scored 81
runs. That's right, 2.7 runs per
nine inning ball game.
That, of course, is nothing that
looks like a batting punch or a
scoring drive for a team that Is
about to go into the World Series.
Nine out of Detroit's last 10 games
have been decided by one run,
and as noted previously, the
Tigers lost six of them.
1t has been noted in this space
on several occasions that the
Tigers cannot beat good left-hand-
ed pitching. Burke and Whitehill
beat them in Washington, Gomez
beat them one game in New York.
Lefty Grove curled them up Tues
day when he relieved Henry John
son, and Yesterday Rube Walberg
had them throwing away their
bats.
Cronin In Charge
Present plans call for Walter
Stewart to face the jungle Cats
today, and the probabilities are
that Auker will pitch for Detroit.
Joe Cronin will be in charge of
the team, but whether he will be
in uniform or will direct play
from behind the players bench
will be decided later.

TEAM To OPEN
SEASON ON
SEPT. 80
BY GARRETT WATERS

Prospects are humming' for the
coming football season OF the
Marion A. c.
One reason for all the rejoic-
ing is the recent signing OF
"Chibby" Rice as coach. Another
is the addition Of several new
players whose talents are well
known locally.
The Marions won the unlimited
championship last year in the Ma
tional City League, turning the
trick after a season OF hard
battles.
Naturally the big aim is to
duplicate the feat. The team be-
lieves it can triumph again, par
ticularly since the outlay has been
strengthened by the addition OF
Rice as coach, and the new play
erS.
Wade Leads Parade
Ken Wade, former Eastern High
School hackfield ace, leads the
parade of new talent. Jim Coch-
ran, 160-pound end, is the CO.
star Of this group, others being
Pete Thompson, another l60-
pound end; "Brick" Hayes, 160-
pound back; Banks" Phillips, ex-
cellent punter and backfield man,
and BOAT" Shuey, back and

Cochran and Thompson, like
Wade, are former Eastern High
