Rhynning
Optin0ist
BY ALINE MICHAELIS
The Dancer


Here are the fury and frenzy
of motion,
Here is the marvel of move
ment set free,
Light as the foam-feathered
breakers of ocean,
Buoyant as winds in the top
of a tree!
Not the least hint of the flesh
and its fetters,
Bondage of body is here set at
naught;
Muscles and sinews and nerves
are but debtors
Now to the music which flows
through his thought.
Faster and fiercer his dervish-
like spinning,
Wider and wilder his leaps
down the stage;
Almost it seems this is madness
beginning,
Joy of Terpsichore fusing with
rage!

blends which definitely whisper
of exquisite feminine charm
three blends which are for lovely
Marion Nixon and women of her
type.
Until now they were too eX-
pensive to tell you about, but the
Frenchmen who brew them now
follow the vogue and bottle small
quantities in handbag flacons
which sell for a price that is not
prohibitive in these preprosper-
ity days! They come separately
or three in a smart gift box.
If you haven't ever had a

tired of the one you are now
using, I would urge you to in

tions.
Dear Miss Shelby:
Please tell me how I can
make the hairs on my upper
lip invisible. Sincerely, w. G.
Dear w. G.:
The best way to make the
hairs on the upper lip IN
visible is by bleaching The
following is an excellent bleach:
Make a smooth paste of mag
nesia chalk and peroxide. Then
add about three drops of am
monia. Apply and let remain
on until dry. Wash off with
a little tepid water.
Be careful not to get the
ammonia fumes up your nose
when applying the paste. If
your skin is very sensitive it
might be advisable to rub a
little cream on the upper lip
after washing the bleach off.

Big Improvement

Boucle has been improving
marvelously, too, as you prob
ably know. 1t has all the
virtues of good looks that it
used to have. but it has dis
carded all the vices that kept
it from popularity when it
first came out. It can now be
produced at more reasonable
prices, too, and you can get a
stunning suit for very little
money.
The two dresses or suits we
have on this page today are
good examples Of all these
points. They are extremely
good looking, yet are not high
priced, only. $16.95. They are
both in turquoise blue, but

II can't keep my eyes off the
pictures Of those children" he
confessed. "Whenever the new
photographs come in, want to
study them. The way they hold
their heads, that little trick they
have of making an 'O' with
their open mouths, everything
about them reminds me so
much of my own children when
they were little!"
Mothers have to learn-usu-
ally from a nurse-how a tiny
baby should be held, with sup
port for his back and head;
how he should be lifted-never
by the arms, with the possibility
of injuring delicate joints; how
he should be bathed so that
every part of him will be i'm
maculately clean and he will en-
joy the process of making it so.

Never Sees Him Now
Dear Miss Fairfax:

Dear Miss Fairfax:
For nearly a year, we went
together and he asked me to
marry him. About two weeks
ago, he left without saying a
word, and I haven't seen him
since except at Sunday school.
I tried always so hard to please
him, and never went with any
one else. LONESOME.
Perhaps the young man may
have seen no immediate pros
poets for marriage ahead, and
felt he didn't want to waste
your time" any longer. Again,
you may have shown him too
plainly how much you cared.

Dear Miss Fairfax:

Lear MISS Td1EAdA.
I see him every day at school
and in many other places be-
side. 1 know lot about him,
as all my friends know him
well, but I'm too bashful to ask
for an introduction. Would
that be proper?
Also, I'm about an inch
taller than he is. Does that
make any difference?
ROSIE.
No, I do not think the re-
cording angel would hold it
against you that you're an inch
taller than the young man,
and as you're all youngsters to-
gether in the same school, it
would be the most natural
thing in the world to ask one
of the other girls or boys to
introduce you.

LEGISLATORS SCORE
IGNORING OF PEAK
King and Schultz Condemn Re.
ported Board Action in Choos-
ing "Outsider" for Job.

Leaders of District legislation in both
the Senate and House today con-
demned the reported action of the
District Welfare Board in recommend
ing an outsider" to replace Capt
M. NJ. Barnard as director of local
penal institutions, disregarding Col
w. A. Peak, former superintendent
of the District Jail and now director
at the reformatory at Occoquan.
Chairman King of the Senate Dis
trict Committee said that he was not
at all in sympathy with any plan of
going outside of the District to fill
positions when there were well-quali-
fed persons in the District service, and
that he would personally advocate the
appointment of Col Peak as the logi-
cal successor to Capt. Barnard's post
when the latter is retired.
Representative Schultz of Indiana
said:
II am dumbfounded to read that the
Welfare Board would favor any out
slider when there is man of 16 years
experience and most enviable record
in line for the position"
A telephone call from the office of
Chairman Norton Of the House Dis
trict Committee brought from the
Welfare Board a denial that Harold
T. Connell, superintendent Of Mary
land penal institutions, had been
recommended officially as Capt. Bar
nard's successor.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass, June 24.-Dis-
covery of hitherto unknown galaxy
Of stars, one of the island universes
nearest to the earth, but unseen be-
cause Of obscuring meteoric dust, has
been announced by DIR. Harlow Shap-
ley, director Of the Harvard University
Observatory.
DR.. Shapley said the spiral galaxy
which has been tagged II. C. 342," is
the third largest spiral in the skies
and is situated not far from the Milky
Way. Its diameter. DR.. Shapley added,
Is probably not more than 10000 light
years and the group itself is less than
100000 light years from the earth.
"In angular dimensions" the Har-
ward astronomer explained, ''the spiral
is larger than the moon at its full.
1t is, in fact, the third largest spiral
now known, the larger two being the
great Andromeda Nebula and that
known as MesSier 49,"
Related discovery of the galaxy was
made through recent long-expoSure
photographs with the telescopes at the
Oak Ridge station Of the Harvard OBJ
servatory and 1t was announced by
DR.. Shapley last night. DR.. Shapley
said the nearneSs of the nebula to the
Milky Way delayed its Identification.
The central nucleus of I. c. 342 was
first noted more than 40 years ago by
w. F. Denning, an English amateur
observer Of shooting stars and comets,
but he failed to see the spiral arms,
which are only revealed by photo
graphic plates.

DUBLIN, Irish Free State, June a..
The two governments OF Ireland
encountered open threats of serious

The Irish Free State already was

Bodenstown, County kildare, where
urgent pleas for independence were
uttered.

cheered the challenge Of Sean Nc
Bride, member Of the Republican
Army Executive Council, who asserted !:
Republicans fill the goals of the
north and south, but the Republican

the annual army celebrations at the
grave Of wolfe Tone, famous Irish
patriot, at Bodenstown. They disap-
peared as their supporters scattered
Tension was high throughout the
Free State, with further violence
feared.
In the north, the challenge Of Sir
Joseph Dawson, grandmaster OF the
Orangemen, caused the Ulster govern

causes deaths from asphyxiation and

The human guinea pig work was
shown by M. H. Nathanson, M. D..

Prof. Nsthanson stops hearts In two
ways. One by sort of ju jutsu pres

artery, which virtually stills the heart

porarily. tef
The other is partial stoppage by in
jecting adrenalin, the energy -produc-
ing drug. The, injection sets u2 the
same kind of confusion In heart mus
cles as causes death in coronary
thrombosis, the industrial captains
disease" and angina pectoris.
In most of the type of sudden
death from heart troubles, Prof. Ma
thanson explains, the heart itself Is
still good, sometimes structurally SO
strong that it appears good for sew
eraI or many more years Of life.
He has stopped or slowed hearts OF
fairly healthy human beings and
sought drugs which will prevent either
the stopping or slowing. The theory
is that the drugs which prevent the
artificial stoppage will be useful medi-
cally.

nouncement that Harmon M. VALLEY
will be summoned from his cell at
Mcneil Island Prison to make a full
confession exonerating his 19-year-oid
wife today presaged the first court
room battle in the George Weyer-
haeuser kidnapping case.
John F. Dore, attorney for Mar
garet Valley, said Valley would tes-
tify on behalf of his wife, charged
jointly in the 100000 abduction of
the s-year-old Weyerhaeuser boy.
Former Mayor Attorney.
Dore, former mayor OF Seattle, who
was appointed to represent Mrs. Valley
after Valley pleaded guilty and re-
ceived a 45-year sentence for the
kidnapping, was here today to hear
United States Judge E. z. Cushman
set Mrs. Valleys trial date. 1t may
be set for as early as July 2, the
start of the new court term.
Valley already is reported to have
confessed to Department Of Justice
agents who arrested him and his wife
in Salt Lake City for passing part of
the ransom money. The "G-men,"
however, are determined to conceal
his admissions, apparently until after
William Dainard, alias Mahan, the
third person indicted in the kidnap
plot, is caught.
1t was indicated today that the
defense will oppose the Governments
efforts to get an immediate trial, on
the ground that Mrs. Valley is too
nervous following her husbands
guilty plea and sentence.
Plans Interview Today.
Dore said he would have his first
interview with her today, after the
case has been set for trial.
This girl is friendless and penni-
less" said Dore, but she is entitled
to the best defense that can be pre-
pared for her, and that Is exactly
what she will receive"
Mrs. Valley made three attempts to
plead guilty and receive immediate
sentence. She was forestalled by
Judge Cushman because Of her hus-
bands desperate plea that she knew
nothing about the kidnapping until
two days after George was seized and
because of her counsels contention
that she is not guilty of plotting the
abduction and could not be convicted

LONDON, June "a R).-Sir Sam
uel Hoare, foreign secretary, told the
House of Commons today that he con-
sidered the Anglo-German naval &C
cord good for all naval powers.
This is no violation of anything
which has been made, Sir Samuel re-
piled when w. Thorne, Laborite, asked
whether the present "trip Of Capt. An
thony Eden to Paris and Rome fol-
lowed on a violation Of the Anglo
French agreement.
Sir Samuel said the Anglo-French
declaration of February still repre-
sented the British policy and said
further statement probably would be
made in the Commons following Capt
Eden's return.
II regard the agreement" said Sir
Samuel, good not only for Great
Britain and Germany, but for all ma
val powers"
Meanwhile, Great Britain, with Ger
many suddenly transformed from an
unknown quantity" to friendly
ally, turned today to the task of unit
ing Europe either by bilateral pacts or
multilateral agreements.
An official announcement said Great
Britain and Germany are presenting
to other powers summaries Of their
views concerning the possibility Of a
future general naval limitation pact.
The announcement came soon after
German delegation departed fol-
Berlin, having completed naval nego-
tiations which brought an accord foE
a 100-35 ratio between the British
