Sn1aYtly SIenderiSing Model
BY ELLEN WORTH

It's charming model for matrons
as we'll as smart youthful types.
There's a SHINING center seam
with plat at the front of the skirt
and darts at the back, which cuts
undue breadth and at same time,
gives the figure lovely tall appear
ance.
See for yourself how utterly SIM
pie it is to make it.
A pretty dark cotton print made
the model pictured.
Wool challis prints are also lovely
mediums and tub beautifully, while
rayons in necktie patterns, are also
excellent.
Style No. 497 is designed for sizes
IA, 16, 18 years, Sc, 80 and 40-inches

and the jack of spades. East has \
solid diamond suit to run; therefore,
the fneSSe should be refused.
Declarer'S proper play is to 90
right up with the ace of spades
and discard a small heart from his
own hand. Now North will be forced
to protect the king of spades.
At this point, declarer should
run off the diamond suit. On the
fourth diamond North lets go of
club, thus advising declarer that
he is trying to protect the heart suit.
When the other diamond is
played, we find North squeezed. He
iCan not let go of another club. Per-
haps his best discard is the jack of
spades, declarer discarding a heart.
Now declarer leads a small spade
from dummy, forcing North to win
with the king. North returns the
queen of clubs, declarer winning
with the king The queen Of hearts
is won in dummy with the ace and
now the good queen of spades is
played and North is helpless.
If he throws away his king of
hearts, declarer will make the jack
of hearts; if he discards a club, de-
Clarer will make two more club
tricks.
SO, by refusing to take a finesse,
deClarer makes five no trump.

Objection to
Grease Halted
by Liquid Aids
BY ALICIA HART

A complete line of beauty prepa-
rations in liquid form is big beauty
news this week. If you are one who
dislikes to cleanse with cream and,
no matter how much your skin needs
nourishing, simply refuses to go to
bed looking greasy, these new items
should be interesting.
The cleanser-milky looking and
slightly perfumed-is made from
light oils. You moisten a cotton
pad, rub it on the face and throat,
turn it over, repeat and cry with
tissues. Then pat with skin tonic.
The tonic itself really is as strong
as an astringent, If you need some
thing to close pores and tighten your
skin, use it full strength. If you
require only mild tonic, soak the
pad in ice water and wiring it dry
before you moisten with the liquid
This dilutes the preparation just
enough.
Application Of the nourishing 10
ton is the next step. If your skin
is dry, leave it on all night. If oily,
remove and pat again with tonic.
Follow the same routine in the
morning, using tonic after nourish-
ing lotion, then smoothing on the
liquid foundation. This protects the
skin from cold winds, makes powder
stay on your nose and chin and can
be used as hand softener as we'll.
Liquid creams are handy for the
traveller and a special boon to a busy
woman. The business girl can keep
a bottle of cleanser in her desk. An
actress will find 1t especially good
for removal of theatrical makeup.

THERE must be basic fash
Il ion reason for every pair Of

enough that you invest in half
dozen pairs Of classic slip-ons in
black and browns and neutrals,
for even the classic has been
twisted into high style by that
newest fashion barometer, color.
You must know the current

An honest to goodness jury,
composed Of six society-fashion

Sleeping Garment for Infants
Combines NightdYess and COve7-

A new sleeping garment - new
both as to method and results-is
available to the mothers of this
city. 1t is called "Kuddler." 1t
combines features of nightdress and
cover and, because of its design, Of
fers the sleeping infant not only
warmth and security, but freedom.
Further. it is designed to be ready
in the morning to be turned up into
tidy little robe for use in playpen
or hignchair during that zero hour
before the bath and breakfast.
Many outstanding accomplish
ments are claimed by the designer
Of this garment whose own baby
has been wearing it for over a year
Some are: 1t keeps baby under
cover all night, thereby assuring
mother her well-deserved rest. 1t
permits baby entire freedom in
rolling from side to side, stretching,

kicking, f1inging the arms and sit
ting, but prevents standing. 1t
permits the changing of diapers in
the crib with minimum amount of
disturbance to baby. 1t also is used
to wrap the infant upon removing
him from his warm bed to a chilled
room, and because it plays so many
roles in the layette, it greatly re-
duces laundering. 1t solves the
problem of car travel, simplifies
overnight visiting and is invaluable
to the suburban mother whose baby
spends most of the day in his car
riage on the porch or in the yard.
The garment is made of warm,
durable flannel, bound in satin, with
strong tapes for ties. At bedtime,
it is slipped over the baby's head,
his arms inserted in the sleeves and
the hands ORA yn out through the
wrist openings or passed on into the

Voice Faults
Divided Into
TwOClasSeS
Bad Tone Production and
Poor Diction Termed
Chief Mistakes.
BY JANE MANNER

Voice faults are Of two kinds. The
basic one is bad tone production
the voice is throaty. hign pitched.
raspy or nasal. The other chief
fault is poor diction-words are pro-
nounced badly. spoken too rapidly,
or slured. Faults in tone produc-
ton are more difficult TO remedy
than poor diction, which can be
aided by an alert ear and an earnest
dictionary habit.
No voice can be remade in a
day. but conscientious and pains
taking effort will produce results.
Speech is the bridge between de-
sire and attainment. Skill in speak
ing produces self confidence and
bestows the priceless gift of express
sion.
Regular Practice Important
If your speech is poor. you are
afraid to speak. All that is required
10 cure this bar to adequate express
sion is a few minutes OF concentra-
ton every day.
Go into a room by yourself. Select
a passage from a book Read it
aloud. Does your voice, at your
command, convey the feeling you
wish TO express? Is it pleasing?
Could you appear in any gathering
and be proud of letting it speak Tor
you?
At the first trial. the answer to
most of these questions is almost
sure to be in the negative. So per-
severance does it.
Try This Exercise
Try this exercise for making the
voice flexible. Take the word Obi
and make it express the following
emotions:
l. Sudden pain.
2. Pleased surprise.
3. Sarcasm.
4. Delight of child.
5. Exhaustion.
6. Good-natured sympathy.
Z. Hesitation.
8. Fright.
9. Impatience.
10 Indignation.
When you have learned to ex-
press, through the utterance of a
single syllable, the entire range Of
emotion, you are beginning to make
your voice vehicle for the thoughts
and ideas you wish to convey.
However, you can not learn to
speak beautifully and effectively by
practicing only whenever you hap
pen to think about it. Faithful, reg
ular and persistent effort is neces-
sary.
Read aloud from five to fifteen
minutes every day. Choose some-
thing that interests you, something
that you can read with sympathy
and real feeling.

NEW YORK. December 23.-Even

Following the moderate rise in 1894

while improvement has marked all
