Simple Dresses Best

Shirtwaist dresses still hold
first place as daytime costumes
for all the informal things
you do. They may be of cot
ton or silk, whichever seems
more suitable to the occasion,
and gray linen is very new.
In the evening, trailing chif-
fon, but not too much of it
trailing on the floor, is grace
full and becoming. S tin,
pleated or with pleated cape,
is in excellent favor. Newest
evening gowns have no trains,
and for dinner, they are
shorter. And don't forget that
there are no radical changes,
and the things you bought in
May and June should still be
perfectly good.

OUTING EXPENSES
Dear Mrs, Beeckman:


my club, q group of girls, is
giving an outing. will you please
tell me what expenses, such as
swimming and drinks, are to be
paid for by the club, and which
by the boys invited? L."
It would have to be the club
members themselves who would
ultimately have to decide about
the question of expenses. How
ever, since they are to be the
hostesSes, the natural and log
ical thing would be for them to
arrange and to pay for every
detail of their hospitality.
That is, they would provide
the lunches; they would ar
range to pay for the expenses
of the swimming; and they
would pay the travelling ex-
penSes.
But very often the boys who
are invited to this kind of party
suggest that they provide some
thing for the party, the drinks.
for instance, and if they do
offer this, then it is quite all
right for the girls to accept
the suggestion.
But the suggestion should
come from the guests, and not
from the hostesses. The girls
should make all the arrange
ments for a party that they are
giving outside their homes, just
as they would for a party they
are giving in their homes.

Etiquette
Lace Dressy'
For Wedding
MRs.CORNELIUS BEECKMAN

ByMRS. CORNELIUS BEECkMAN
Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
''My young man friend and
1 have been invited to attend
a semiformal wedding at 4:3O
in the afternoon, and we have
been requested to reply to the
invitation. Will you please ad-
wise me whether the reply is
to be addressed to the parents
or the bride.tO-be, and what
form would be the most prop
er?
"This is our first experience
In attending a SemifOrmal
wedding and we are a little
in doubt as to what the proper
dress should be. have a long
blue lace dress with a short
tucked-in jacket with long
sleeves. Would this be proper?
As for the gentleman, would a
dark business suit be satisfac-
tory. S."
You did not tell me what
form your invitation was in,
or from whom it was. Since
the wedding is not to be for
NAL. 1 imagine the invitation
was in the form of a note,
and so your acknowledgment
should follow suit" and should
be in the form of note. And
it should be addressed to the
person who wrote the note.
Let us say that it was the
brides mother, since this is the
usual and correct form OF invl-
tation to an informal wedding.
Your young man friend should
write a note of.acceptance.
To this four-thirty wedding
you would wear an afternoon
dress or ensemble, and the skirt
should be of street length. I
think that you will find this
long lace dress too "dressy" for
an afternoon wedding, even if
the wedding were to be formal.
The dark business suit would be
appropriate for the man to
wear.

Paints
Finish Pieces
At Home

Sometimes the occasion seems
to demand the purchase of q
new piece of furniture in the
unfinished state, perhaps be-
cause you wish to paint it to
harmonic with some color
scheme already established, or
because it is just right in size
and shape and general useful.
ness and you want to finish it
as you have other pieces for the
same room.
In that case you will want
to know how to go about treat
ing brand new unfinished wood.
First of all the piece needs q
good sandpapSring. If for any
reason it seems very rough, you
may have to use steel wool, but
the best results can usually be
obtained with Sandpaper.
Remember, too, that you must
always rub with the grain, and
only in finishing give it the
lightest possible touch across
the grain. Wipe off the entire
surface with a soft cloth or a
damp cloth, and be sure 1t Is
absolutely smooth to the touch.
Stain or Oil
The next question is whether
or not a filler is needed. The
following open-grained woods
all need a paste filler: oak, ash,
chestnut (Which is softer than
oak but gives a similar effect,
mahogany. walnut.
The following do not need a
paste filler: White pine, tlr,
whitewood, birch, spruce, ma
Pile. In the case of these woods
the stain acts as filler, and 1T
is not necessary to apply any
paste filler.
Stain or oil color can be
added to the paste filler to give
it darker grain if that is the
effect desired. That will tend
to accentuate the pores Of the
wood-Sometimes a good idea,
sometimes not, depending on
the piece, the wood, and where
it is to be used.
The paste filler is colorless
and it sinks in quite rapidly.
AS soon as it begins to show
dry or dull looking spots, rub
the entire surface with a wad
of burlap or other heavy mate
rial, first across the grain, and
then with it.
The next step is the applica-
ton of a coat of orange shellac.
If no paste filler has been used
on the piece, it is ready for q
coat of shellac after the surface
has been sanded and you are
sure that it is quite smooth and
dry. Where no filler has been
used the shellac sinks into the
pores of the wood and seals
them up. Where a filler has
been used the shellac serves as
a sealing coat and binds the
filler in. After the shellac is
quite dry sandpaper it lightly
and dust it off.
Second Coat
If by any chance a penetrat-
ing stain has been used, the
orange Shellac will helm cOnSid.
erably in holding that stain in
so that it will not bleed. Have
no fear that the shellac will
leave a shiny surface, for as
soon as it has sunk in and been
lightly sandpapered, none of 1t
will be left on the surface.
For a very open-grained
wood it is sometimes advisable
to use a second coat of shellac,
just to be sure that all of the
pores are sealed.

Dear Miss FAIRFAX:
I'm a girl of Is, who enjoys
sports and the Out-Of- doors, but
who doesn't like to be kissed.
This boy wants to go steady
with me, and I don't think it
right because I'm only Is and
like to go out with a bunch of
boys and girls and have a good
time. This boy says he believes
in girls going steady, and I say
I don't. Who is right?
"He is terribly jealous and has
a bad temper. What would you
do in my place? JOSIE"
In your place. my dear Josie,
I'd go out with a bunch and
continue to enjoy sports and the
out-of-doors. Tell the jealous
young man. with the terrible
temper, that he'll have to hunt
up another girl friend. You
are right. No girl should go
steady at the tender age of IS.

They will continue to talk s5oOO $6OOO and $7oo0 Hove nests" for young couples starting out in ife-many with in- comes of less than $100 month It should be evident that the home-buying power of millions of people has declined to a point where they cannot longer consider homes quoted at pre-depression prices. People do not live in slums, shacks and obsolete homes because they prefer them. Their income permits nothing better. We build sum clearance projects until doomsday, but if do not replace slums with living quarters that cost no more to occupy than the old novels merely engaging in ineffective gestures. When the head of family is earning less than $10O month, it is absurd to suggest home-buying contracts to him if the contracts require $50 $60 month to carry out. The difference between $25 and $35 means that he buys he does not buy.
 The New Deal is spoken of a against poverty. Those who build and offer people homes that they afford to live in and pay for are carrying in a manner much more effective than those who are unable to get the idea through their heads that the rank and file of our people cannot afford homes costing amount that would absorb their total income for long period of years
 This country is seriously in need of a good $25 home, and the buyers of such homes are likely to be legion during the next few years, while the buyers of homes at edepression prices may hardly number more than "corporals guard" in most communities for some little time to come

Chicken HaiUk Falls Into Hands of Gray; No Salt Used

Douglas Gray believes a bird in the hand is worth two somewhere else.
 Walking near the Governors $ Mansion late Sunday afternoon Gray and A. B. Phillips, superin- tendent of schools, were-to put it mildly-surprised when a very live chicken hawk literally flew into Gray'S hand.
 The bird apparently had been stunned by striking a telephone wire or was wet with the rain. With the exception of some rather vicious work with its claws, it was docile enough when Gray carried 1t over to his home in Douglas.
 Gray, an instructor in the Ju- neau Grade School and basketball player for the Douglas Bremen, made tour of his many friends here Sunday afternoon, exhibiting the catch. He claims he was not forced to use salt on the birds tail.
