Luxury List
FOrBathing
Gets sLonger
Growth Gives Evi-
dence of Higher Liv-
ing Standard.
BY ELSIE PIERCE.

TT is indicative of the high standard
of living that we Americans have
added so many little luxurieS to the
bath. Life may be one mad rush the
whole day land mighty through, but
the bath is where we stop, rest, luxuri-
ate. How we love our bath, and not.
mind you, because it Is means OF
getting clean. You see, bathing as We
do at least once, we really don't get
the peck of dirt on our body. The
bath is a whim with us, induces a
feeling of languor and luxury. And
why not, with so many. many manu-
facturers knowing and catering to
- that weakness.
The luxury list is really too long to
run off in one sitting. But let's name
some of the bathing delights anyway.
Shall we start with soap or with the
little rubber sponge pillows that fasten
themselves to the tub side by sue
ton? What soothing feeling to lie
back on one of those pillows in tepid
scented water, dream your dreams,
forget life's petty problems.
Now we come to soaps. (Well de-
vote a wee space to the business of
cleansing) There are innumerable
types and brands of soaps, special
soaps for dry or oily skins, soaps that
soften the water. soaps that are hung
around your neck or slip into a wash
cloth case, man-siZe soaps, guest-size
soaps, soaps perfumed with your ia
vOrite essence. Then there are brushes
that do a thorough job and tricky
one. Brushes that come out of a
skeleton handle, brushes that slip over
the hand. brushes whose briStleS were
made for friction, and that's where
beauty enters the bath-whips up the
circulation-makeS skins clearer and
eyes brighter. Loofah sponges come
In for high honors. too. They come
in colors to match bath room tiles and
in all sorts of shapes and sizes.
Toilet waters, eau de colognes, bath
essences are becoming more and more
poular. Some are thrust upon the
waters to soften them as we'll as the
body and give the rooms as we'll as
the person a subtle, lingering fra

their bath luxuries-soap, bath salts
or bath essence, bath oil ito rub over
the body after the BATH and bath
busting powder-all in the one per-
fume.
And talking about perfumes, be-
lieve 1t or not, there are even per-
fume balls to be attached to the
shower disk so that shower addicts
are not deprived of their fun and fra
GRANGE.
Beauty has moved into the bath
room. no mistaking that. The busy
woman combines her bath and beauty
rites. smoothing cream over face and
neck, allowing it to seep in while the
body Soaks and relaxes. After the
bath skin freshener is patted over
face and neck, and voila!-sparkling,
clean, fragrant beauty tip to toe.

Sketched in Washington Shops

/ THE finely patterned Italian Renais-
sance type of jewelry is shown
in the bracelet with matching ear
rings and clip at the top of the sketch.
In dull-finished gold metal set with
many clear blue jewel-like facets, these
pieces would be perfect with a gown of
rich blue velvet and also lovely as a
contrast with the all-white gown.
This set comes in several colorS of
| jewels and the pieces are individually
priced so that you may buy one sep
arately if you wish. The bracelet has
spring under each side of the center
! plaque design so that it is very easy
to snap on and off and fits the wrist
| closely.
The black enamel bracelet and ear
rings on backing of bright gold and
decorated with q flower design in
small pearls is lovely for luncheon
and daytime wear with the smart
black costume. The very wide gold
bracelet, rejecting Oriental design
with its three deeply convex filagree
ornaments. is suitable for wear with
many outfits.
CMALL triangular scarfs, some with
matching cuffs, will do much for
plain black frock for the cock
tail hour. Their metallic sheen Sug-
gests the Crusaders coats of mail as
it flashes in the light. There are
number of collar patterns. both large
and small, worked out in metallic mesh,
including the scarf shown at the
lower left of the sketch, with fringed
metal edge. They are very smart with
the black cocktail frock and will make
wonderful gifts to keep in mind for
the holidays ahead.
Gold lame leaf jewelry is very popu-
lar and admirably adapted to use on
afternoon dresses in dark colors, with
draped necklines that look SO we'll
with large, bright clip at the front,
or two clips, one at each shoulder
These leaf designs come with match
ing clips, bracelets and sets of but
tons, as well as earrings. They are
about 81 for each piece.
Although silver is not used as ex-
tensively as gold, it has its place in
the scheme Of things and in delicate
lacelike filigree that is antiqued to
make it dull with darker shadings it
is most attractive and well suited to
the woman with platinum hair This
jewelry also comes jewel-studded.
r x
I1EARLS (simulated) continue to be
good and are receiving attention
in the two-strand choker with the
plain neckline dress. One of these
with double rhinestone buckle clasp
at back at $495 is most attractive.
Large pearl clips, long bar pins and
the eight-strand vagabond bracelet are
| other interesting numbers.
New this season is the three and
four strand necklace, either of gold,
pearls or clear colors, fastened to a
velvet ribbon that ties at the back.
RhinestoneS and crystals are still high
lights of the evening picture. Wear two
bracelets on each wrist if you like
and dashing pin or clip somewhere
near the left shoulder if you crave
| real chic.

Surprise Seasoning.

Drab-looking dill, favorite pot
herb that previously offered its spicy
flavor exclusively to the lowly pickle,
has broadened its fiavoring field. ac-
cording to the Extension Service of
the United States Department of Agri-
culture. "The tender, spicy young
leaves Of the plant, before it goes to
seed, is a delicious seasoning" says
Miriam Birdseye of this division. She
suggests using chopped leaves to flavor
the sauces for creamed chicken,
shrimp or other creamed meat dishes.
"A pinch Of chopped dill on broiled
lamb chops, fried fish, veal outlets or
steak, with plenty of hot butter poured
over it to bring out the flavor, is de-
licious. Bits of leaves added to salads,
omelets, scrambled eggs and soups give
a different favor that tastes good"

The Old Gardener Saws 1,

It appears that many amateurs
have difficulty when planting
bulbs in determining which Is
the top. This difficulty disap-
pears when one becomes accus-
toned to the appearance Of the
different bulbs. Tulip bulbs are
pointed, and the point is the top.
They also have a ring at the bot
tom where the old roots were at
tached. This statement is also
true of hyacinths, narcissi, snow
drops and scillas. The bottom
Of a crocus bulb is easily deter
mined because it is somewhat de-
pressed. There is one little bulb,
the Anemone coronaria. which Is
so oddly constructed that even
experts are unable to tell which
is the top and which is the bot
tom. Fortunately it will grow
equally well, apparently in any
position.

accompanied by Eileen Crimmen

No Support
Adherents of social activity at
Agriculture, however. are veXed
at the lack of interest in the or
chestra and dramatic guild thus
far shown by personnel in general.
Despite a total of more than 1000
employees in the Main and South
Buildings alone, a combined con-
cert and play offered several
weeks ago drew less than 200. AS
one exasperated music fan pointed
out recently, the orchestra offers
complete performance of high
grade for whatever the audience
chooses to put in the hat, yet our
people will Snub it in favor Of
some show that costs them three
times as much"
Interested Agriculture people
would consider it a real blow if
the effort f1opped solely through
lukewarm interest.

If you have ever walked into the Metro
politan Opera House on the eve of a cele-
brated performance, you have fair idea
of what the fur market looks like in Sep
TENDER. You can't even find standing
room. Thousands of stores send thou
sands of buyers into the market. Every
body wants the best, the richest, the
choicest furs But every fur-bearing
animal isn't Carlo or a Gable.
You say, what has this to do with my
fur coat?" The answer is this. It's diff
ferent in July. In July the buyer who
knows her furs can go to the market and
examine thousands of pelts at her leis-
ure. There is no rush. There is no con-
fusion. In July buyer who knows her
furs can hand-pick every coat to her ex-
pert satisfaction. It stands to reason
that you can buy your ot0n fur coat to
best advantage, therefore, in July.
Not many weeks from now you'll be
acutely interested in having your fur
coat selected and ready to wear. Lans-
burgh's advises you not to wait Today
you have better chance of finding the
coat you want at your price Today you
can make your selection from hand
picked collection-furs with deep, rich
full bodies, glistening guard hairs, true
color tone and perfect markings
aristocrats of the seasons catch. And
today you can get these choice furs tai
lored with a perfection that might be
noticeably lacking when the great fur
rush begins. And it isn't so far off!

Following an argument by w. S.
Torbert, a former president, and
others that the entire plan would
be detrimental to the general
interests of the neighborhood, the

against the project was adopted,
copies of which were ordered sent
to the Housing Commission, and
Board of District Commissioners:
!. It is the belief of this asso-
citation that the establishment of
such a rental project in this al
most exclusively home community,
will tend to reduce materially
values of real estate.
2. There is no assurance that
such a project will not tend to
bring into this community people
OF. a lower living standard who
may be evicted from slum areas
in, other sections.
3. Property in this community
IS. essentially restricted to occu-
pany by white people and no as
surance is given that it will re-
main such.
i Make Traffic Hazard
4. Direct approach from the
city to this community is re-
stricted to one street only, namely
Rhode Island Avenue, and the
transportation facilities are such
that TOO to 1000 additional
families will create a traffic prob
lem to the disadvantage and in
convenience to the present resi-
dents of the community.
5. Under the plans as disclosed
no arrangements have been made
, or are contemplated to provide ad-
ditional school facilities to care
for the estimated 1000 or more
children who would be housed
under the contemplated project.
8. No assurance has been given,
