Soko, Zoo Chimpanzee, Has Watched Thronss Pas.

Workmen are busy fixing up
the lion house now, and when

days ago he made the news"

lumber left too near his cage.
Queer Angle
When the photographer and

his picture, we didn't know what
to expect. His cage (as you
probably know is encased in
glass. and only Mr.. Blackburn
and a few assistants can go be-

because Soko's long arm can
reach far out of his cage.
Still, we couldn't take the pic

Plump faces can carry rouge
a little below the cheek bone,
but not too low or it will make
the whole face appear to sag.
Thin faces can carry rouge
farther out on the curve of
the cheek bone.
Certain basic rules apply to
any face. Never spread rouge
too far back toward the ears
or down to the jawbone. Never
bring it nearer the nose than
an imaginary line dropped from
the center of your eye, or below
the level of the tip of the
nose.
Experiment before your mir
ror until you find just the right
place for your rouge. Once you
have your plan, take a very lit
tie rouge on your finger tip and
touch it lightly in the exact
center of the space to be
rouged, then, with light strokes,
blend it upward and outward
till you cannot tell where the
rouge ends or begins. Next,
take little more rouge and
repeat the process until the
right depth of color is obtained.
Apply very little at a time, and
don't go back to your rouge box
too often.

Of the most gracious and spon-

the good fortune to encounter.
So many of those in the public
eye are naturally "fed up" with
the adulation and eager inter-
est displayed by their fellow
men, and therefore find it hard
to be enthusiastic when some
one pursues them, pen in hand,
for an autograph, or "just a
line, please, right here!"
Not so Miss Tucker. She has
the great gift of making one
feel that she is really pleased by
ones interest, and that she, in
turn, is really interested in the
other fellow. She curled her
self up in a big chair, demanded
paper and pencil from hover
ing gentleman, and proceeded
to write out for me herself, the
following recipe:
''My Recipe for a Real Tucker
Dish"
Chopped steak, ground very
fine; egg; 2 onions, chopped
fine; / ground whole pepper;
salt to taste, and a tiny bit of
sugar.
Soak stale white, bread in
water (Note: She did not give
me the quantity of this or Of
the steak, but said that should
be determined by the number of
persons to be Served). Mix all
thoroughly. Grease flat baking
pan, and place in the bottom /
layer of the mixture. Cover
this with sliced hardboiled eggs,
and then put the remaining
meat mixture over this as a top
layer. Put in oven, and bake
until well done.

the bottom of the page, I'm

Spring Gown Is
Also Used in
Summer
BY WILMA LAVILLE

Now that Easter is over, and
we've all managed to- assemble
street costume for the impor-
tant day, it's time to turn to
other things. Parties will start
Immediately, and gaiety will re-
turn to normal.
Spring party frocks are the
first consideration. And as
summer should follow fast on
the heels of spring, we might
as we'll cast a thought in that
direction too.
Happily, most of the dance
frocks and evening gowns being
shown now are just as good
for real summer time too, so
we can more or less consider
them together.
Your Needs Decide
There are so many fabrics
smart, so many styles good that
it becomes a matter of your
own needs and taste as to what
you buy.
If you intend being ultra for
NAL, which is rare this time
of the year and summer, you
may need a new slinky satin,
or an extreme and beautiful
printed crepe. But ten chances
to one net will do, and look
smarter when hot weather
comes.
Cotton Ranks First
All the cottons are in fash
ion, from gingham to organdie.
The organza and crinkly organ
dies are excellent too, some OF
them approaching seersucker in
their irregularity.
PlaidS, checks and stripes
woven in sheer materials make
them crisp and summery, and
give enough pattern so that
many times they need no trim
ming at all.
Good for Weddings
For semi-formal parties from
now on, and for summer eve
nings, nothing could be much
nicer than the dress we've pho.
tographed for today. It's so
crisp and fresh looking, so
wonderful and becoming.
Spring brides will select such
frocks for their bridesmaids,
and those attendants will be
thankful, for they can wear the
dress many times afterward.
Plaided Organza
Plaided organza makes this
frock, photographed in green,
but available in other pastels
too The collar and cuffs are Of
ruffled chiffon in natural tone,
and the belt is self material
with a covered buckle. It's
$16.95, and in Junior sizes, II
to IT.
Because of the natural colored
collar and cuffs, a natural straw
or horsehair braid hat will look
lovely with this dress, and there
fore will be an especially good
choice for spring weddings. It's
not too formal, too, which is
another point in it's favor.
For the name of the store
showing this dress, call Miss La
vile at District 1000, or write,
enclosing self-addressed, stamped
envelope.

Wishes They Wouldn't Ring Up
Dear Miss Fairfax:
What's a fellow going to do
when girls keep calling him up,
and he doesn't want to talk,
especially during office hours,
with the boss glaring at him?
There are several girls

you know how hard it is to get

me how to stop their chatter?

When they call you up, at the

Playing With Fire
Dear Miss Fairfax:
Straight to the point: My
escort acted outrageously last
night in the taxicab.' He apol-
ogized-said he had been drink
ing. So, even though it was
late, I let him in and made a
cup Of tea. Then he got ten
times worse. sent him home.
The question is: Shall I see
him again?
T like him a lot; he is
really very handsome, has
lovely manners-though uncon-
troIled when he is drinking.
When he saw I meant it, he
went away at once. B.
BY this experience you must
see that it is hardly safe to let
a man come in to your apart
ment late at night, for a cup Of
tea, especially when he has been
drinking, and more particularly
when he had subjected you, on
that same evening, to unwel-
come advances. Lucky for you,
he left, without further trouble,
when, for good cause, you Or
dered him out.
Unless you have reasons that
you have not disclosed to me.
for going on with this man, I
would advise you to write him
off your books as a dead loss.
