While the Administration ne
gotiated Acceptance Of the Vanden.
berg reservation in order to halt
the rising tide of opposition to
American adherence to the League
Court, Senator Bailey CD, North
Carolina, today urged the Senate
ito vote entry into the tribunal
established by the League Of Ma
tionS. ...
Mr.. Bailey declared the court
was founded upon principles Of
national justice. He said it had
commanded the respect Of the
world for the last IA years, and
American entry would make it a
vital force for peace.
The Administration, mean
while, considered acceptance Of
the Vandenberg reservation, de.
signed to prevent the United
States becoming involved in en-
tangling alliances abroad through
entry in the court. It was spon'
sored by Senator Vandenberg
(R.), Michigan, on the same
terms as voted by the Senate in
1926.
Reynolds Hits Court
Senator Bailey deprecated the
warnings uttered yesterday by
his colleague, Senator Reynolds,
who denounced adherence to the
court. Mr.. Reynolds charged
the court mas an agent Of the
League of Nations and American
entry would plunge this nation
into the chaotic political en-
broilments of Europe.
Senator Bailey declared:
"The Permanent Court of In
ternational Justice is proposed
by nations, more than so in
number, and is retained in the
interests Of extending to ma
tiOns Of the earth in settlement
in their controversies and dis
putes, the great principles which
have justified the existence Of
the governments themselves"
President Roosevelt summoned
Senator Vandenberg to the White
House for a secret conference.
Afterwards, the Senator admitted
acceptance of his reservation was
under discussion"
This move was forced by the
increasing Senate opposition to
the resolution of adherence, to
which two supplemental reserva'
tions have been added.
Norris Sponsors One
The first one, sponsored by
Senator Norris (R.) Of Nebraska,
would require a two-thirdS vote
of the Senate before any ques-
ton for settlement Of a con.
troVersy, involving the United
States, could be submitted to
the Court.

GrGUer Disorders

Much graver disorders follow
neglected cases of rickets. The
disease may make the toddler
bow-legged or knock-kneed, be-
sides delaying his learning to
walk. Other bodily deformities
may result, and the general re-
SiStance to disease is powered.
Rickety children have many
colds, and their stomachs are
continually getting out of order.
Their mentality even may be
affected.
Since sunlight is a sure ally
In fighting off this curse of
ricketts,, mothers should avail
themselves of it whenever pos
Sible. The baby whose skin
tans, without burning, when
gradually submitted to the sun
bath, is the baby who benefits.
Doubtless, where some of my
readers live, the days will soon
be warm enough to permit this
treatment. The general form.
ula is "a little at a time," both
as applied to the baby's body
and to the duration of the ex-
pOSure.
The Washington times., 1935-03-15
Gradual Exposure

Clothing should be removed
gradually. On the occasion of
the first sun-bath only the
baby's hands and wrists, ankles
and feet should be exposed,
and then for but five minutes.
Next day, roll up the sleeves
to the elbow and expose the
legs up to the knee, after the
baby has been in the sunshine
for five minutes, and let the
hitherto unexposed portions of
skin have five-minute bath.
From knees to hips is the sur.
face to be given the next five
minute exposure. The day after
hips to chest may be summed in
the same manner, and on the
following day the chest to the
neck.
Meanwhile, each portion Of
the body previously barred gets
longer daily airing, while each
unsunned portion is exposed for
only a five-minute interval the
first time, with that interval in
creased by five minutes on every
day succeeding, until at the end
of the sixteenth day the entire
body of the little one gets a full

tive colors have a sun-drenched
look.
When we ego native" we bor-
row from the Tahitians, from
the Philippines, the Hawaiians,
the American Indians, the Mexi-
cans, CubanS, and so on. There
is a wealth of color, of odd tex
ture, of variety Of shape and
form in the native designs of
all these people, and as they are
mostly from hot countries, their
things are suitable for our use
in summer.
Bamboo Fashionable
Bam mboo, rattan, rawhide,
woven straw all come into their
own as part Of the decorative
picture. Mexican pottery, Amer
lean Indian rugs, Philippine fab
RIGS and all the products of the
Central American countries are
smart. Guatemalan objects are
popular in New York now, and
will no doubt be good here, when
they are available.
You'll find the influence car
ried out in many things made
in America, which will be on
the market this spring and
summer. You've no doubt seen
the splashy Tahitian prints al
ready, Mexican pottery and glass
is available in town, as are
many woven things from that
country.
Furniture Light
When the stores get their
summer furniture in, you'll find
much of it is either from one
of the countries I've mentioned,
or is designed to carry out the
spirit of those places. 1t is
light weight, substantial, color
full and cool.
There are many Army and
Navy people in Washington who
have brought furniture, screens
and small objects from far
countries, so the fashion is al
ready well on its way here, and
should take we'll when the time
comes. All this is fairly ad-
vance information for you to
think over, so that You may
be in the spirit when spring and
summer buying time comes.
Though there are certain items
that you can find in town al
ready.

Fish dinners are unlntereSt-
ing, you say? Well, did you ever
try high-spotting them with a
grand dessert bound to win
praise? Say a light-as-a-feather
chocolate pudding.
It's easy to make. And it's
hearty enough to counteract any
theory that a fish dinner isn't as
nourishing as a meat dinner.
Steamed Chocolate Pudding
IA cup butter
2-3 cup sugar
l egg, beaten
21a squares (ozs.) unsweetened
chocolate
2 cups sifted flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
"a teaspoon salt
/ cup milk
Cream butter and beat in
sugar gradually. Add beaten
eggs, and chocolate (first melted
over hot wateO. Sift dry in
gradients and add to first mix
ture alternately with milk. Turn
into creased mold, cover and
steam two hours. Serve with
whipped cream. Serves 6.
Of course there's many an
other knack to planning a fish
dinner. Out of the wide variety
Of fresh, canned, frozen, smoked,
and salted fish, you'll naturally
choose the kind the family like
best. Some people who dislike
fish plainly cooked, will thor
oughly approve of it in dishes
such as salmon loaf, scalloped
tuna, and baked fish with cheese
sauce.
Choosing the right accompan-
iments and garniShes gives the
fish dinner a lift, too. It is gen.
orally agreed that fish needs
something tart to go with it.
That's why tomato sauce is
such a favorite with fish cakes.

The Spring

The Spring
Have you, sometime, walked long
and aimlessly
In the serene, deep faStneSS Of
a wood
Where the slant rays Of sun
light lit dim fires
And peace and beauty matched
your musing mood?
Have you, thus wandering, come
upon a spring
That gushed, translucent, from
a rocky hill,
It's waters falling with a little
song
And inexpresSibly refreshing,
chill?
There flowed the spring and
any man, athirst,
Had but to cup his palms be-
meath its tide
And draw them back, brimmed
up with sparkling drops,
Had but to drink and then go,
satisfied.
Have you in life's dim wood
land wandered long?
Are you athirst? Then seek; a
spring is there
Whose falling waters make i'm
mortal song,
Whose draughtS make heaven
more sure and earth more
fair.

HOneFacial
Freshens
Skin
By JULIET SHELBY

Sometimes a very simple
home treatment, if given in
the proper manner, accentu-
ates and aids beauty. The
popular opinion is that movie
stars spend fabulous fortunes
for beauty. They 60 in, is
the belief, for face lifting, skin
grating and cures that bring
about eternal youth.
Such opinions gained popular
ity through publicity stunts de-
signed to create an intangible
glamor for the girls of the screen.
The Hollywood stars, in most
instances very sensible girls, are
born with the average amount of
beauty and more than the average
amount of talent.
They lead sensible, hard-work-
ing lives and they are just as
eager as you and I to keep young,
fresh and alluring. And, because
they are eager, they refrain from
resorting to freak methods of sus-
tanning youth.
just to prove my point, I want
to tell you about a simple home
remedy that ELISA Landi occa-
sionally uses to clear her skin.
Naturally, the grease paint, baked
in by the hot Klieg lights, works
hardshipS on her soft, lovely skin.
We, too, have days when the skin
is bit more muddy" than usual,
bit less smooth.
It is at such times that Miss
Landi gives her skin special but
simple facial.
With a powder which you can
buy, she makes paste, and after
thoroughly cleansing her skin
with a cream, she rubs this con-
coction on her face, neck and
back. Then she continues to mas
sage, with slow, hard pressure,
until her skin feels hot from the
exercise.
A quick splashing with warm
water, followed by cold water Cor
ice if you prefer) makes her skin
tingle with renewed vitality and
glow with it's stimulated coloring.
After such treatment, her skin
resumes it's natural softneSs, clar-
ity and beauty.
For just a few pennies you can
have this same treatment. It is
efficacious-as you can tell by
looking at the vivacious and beau.
tiful ELISA Landi!

Washington Tin1eSJ
Dear Miss Fairfax:
I'm a girl of 20, who cares
for a young man of Is. He's
been away in the United States
Army for the past two and one
half years. We have been cor
responding for that length Of
time.
Recently he came home and
asked me to go out with him.
We had a few dates, and he
treated me very well,
Then he ran out of money,
and he took me to his married
brothers house to meet them.
They also treated me very nicely.
At times I think he doesn't
care for me, because he doesn't
show it. He has no job, and he
says if he did have q job things
would be different. Is he afraid
to show it, because he's afraid
of encouraging me?
UNDECIDED
It's pretty hard these days to
tell whether an unemployed
young man is serious in his in
tentions or not.
He is under a tremendous
handicap, and if you're really
in love with him, it's worth CIV
ing him the benefit of the doubt.
If you are looking for some
one to take you to expensive
places of entertainment, he will
be an unprofitable investment.
Are They Old Enough?
Dear Miss Fairfax:
We are three girls who read
your column every evening.
Two of us are II years old and
one is 10. We should like to
have your opinion on the sub
ject: Are we old enough to
invite boys to call at our
houses, if they go home at a
decent time?
THREE GIRLS.
All things considered, girls
are supposed to have dates
with mice" boys, approved of
by their families, when they
are 16 years of age. But I
can very well understand the
questioning of a widower
father, before coming to this
decision.

When Manners

By MRS. S.CORNELIUS BEECKMAN
Christening

Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
Is it proper to have my mother
and father act as godparents for
my baby? The reason I chose
them is because I have only two
brothers, one is married but my
sister-in-law is in poor health
and does not attend the same
church that I do, and my hus-
bands people are of another
religion, and not very friendly. I
have no other close friends from
whom to choose.
Would it be all right to use a
christening outfit consisting of
a coat, dress and petticoat that
was made by my mother and
grandmother and used for my
christening twenty-five years
ago? It is quite long but in a
very good condition. Or do you
think it would be too old
fashioned to use? S.
It is considered unsuitable
to choose grandparents to act
as godparents for a baby. The
advantage of having godpar-
ents for a child is that they
add to the child's relatives, so
that, if the baby is left alone
in the world, it will have the
protection of godparents. Since
the grandparents relationship
to the child is so close already,
choosing them as godparents
doesn't seem to have any point.
Usually very intimate friends
are chosen to be godparentS of
a child. But, if in your case,
this is impossible then you will
have to forego tradition and
custom, and choose the god
praents according to your wish.
I thoroughly approve, en-
Enthusiastically approve, of your
using the christening outfit
that you describe in your letter.
It will bring with it a fine
and charming sentiment, and
the fact that it is old fash
ioned" will add greatly to its
charm. It is similar to having
a bride wear her mothers we'd
ding dress, always a lovely
plan.

BY JOHN THOMPSON

THE Lyman Brothers fireside
II gallery is glowing with the
brilliancy Of one Of the best art
shows Of the current season. IN
ike most Of the shovings this
year. this collection contains some
Of the modernistic trends Of an
Indiana painter.
At the Lyman display, one is
being treated u the works of a
very interesting artist. Richard T.
Sortomme. a Wisconsin native,
who has lived in Vernon. Ind. for
the last three years. He is of Nor
wegian descent and the stark. al
most cold. brutality with which he
attacks his subject is a distinct
characteristic.
Mr.. Sortomme has attempted to
cover a large field of subject mat
ter and he has done well. His
best things are the ones he paint
ed in New Mexico. and some Of the
impressionistic water colors Of the
artistic landscapes around his
home Town.
The New Mexican paintings are
done in what is most certainly a
different style. This. according to
Mr.. Sortomme. is due to the fact
that the strange and brilliant color
effects Of high attitudes are con-
stantly changing and TO capture
them the artist has had to work
exceedingly fast. This results in
the impressionistic treatment.
