BY ALINE MICHAELIS
Two Worlds

Wv w OA ASAS
Tonight my world is but a mar
row place,
A long, low room, wide hearth
with logs a-glow
To cast their stored-up sunshine
on your face,
Your hand in mine, as pallid as
the snow
Which blocks the door and banks
the window sill
And makes us happy prisoners
of storm
Who finds a music in winds
never still
That rage and threaten, but can
do no harm.
In summer, though, my world
grows very wide,
For then I live upon the seas
white shore,
And hear strange promises in
every tide,
Strange whispers higher than
the sight can soar;
Then forget your face, the fire
lights bloom
To wander, questioning, through
Gods great room!

With some young sirens, the
professor admits, this imper.
sonation doesn't require much
effort.
But even the brightest Of
them, girls who secretly enjoy
making grades, or girls simply
overflowing with good practical
horse sense are willing to
work hard at the job of pre-
tending that they are charm
ingly, irresistibly stupid, be-
cause they know what is to be
gained by it.
Submerge Brains
A girl, cannot get her eve
nings satisfactorily dated up;
she cannot have the attention
from boys that makes her life
exciting, unless she learns to
keep her brains in their place.
That is to say, completely out
of sight.
I have no quarrel to pick
with the wise and experienced
teacher of youth who has made
this revelation. can only po-
litely wonder that it has taken
him so long to discover some
thing that most of us have
known for very long time.
Think for a moment. Have
you ever heard an enamored
youth explain his choice of a
best girl on the ground of her
intelligence? Or listen to the
terms in which a young hus.
band praises his bride! Does
he claim for a moment that
there's anything worth men,
tioning inside that ravishing
heo l of hers?
It's for other reasons, isn't it,
that women are admired, feted,
pursued, adored and married?
Learn Early
Girls learn fairly early, much
sooner, it appears, than their
professors, that goodly part
of a woman's job in life is to
keep up what we have learned
to call the morale" of men.
She accepts it as her business
to keep men feeling easy, COM
Portable, happy and contented
with. themselves. But the dear
creatures aren't a bit comfort
able if the women they prefer
compete with them mentally.
Men are vain things, much
as we love them, and in order
to secure their love in the first
place, and then to retain it on
peaceful terms, we have to flat
ter their vanity.
It's their line, they believe,
to tell us women what it's all
about. and it's our line to
look preCCy ana I1SCen.
Decorative
We've let men get away
with this idea for good
many generations and, 50 far
as I can see, we're going to
keep on doing so.

Weighed Weekly

If she prefers, her doctor will
weigh the little one. In any case
the doctor should be consulted
at once if the child fails to gain
regularly.
A loss of a few ounces usually
occurs during the first week af-
ter birth. Then the flourishing
baby, with enough of the right
sort Of food, ought to put on an
ounce a day up to the fourth
month, and four ounces a week
until he is about a year old.
Should these normal gains
fail to occur. there is trouble
somewhere. and your own doc.
tor is the person to ask about it.

By BETSY CAsWELL

WOMAN'S PAGE EDITOR
Here are a few culinary
ideas sponsored by several
of Washington's cleverest
and most delightful hostesses.
Formal Dinner
Mrs. Hugh O'Donnell serves
with cocktails tiny flowerets of
raw cauliflower, crisp and cold,
and sprinkled with a bit of
lemon juice.
With Bacardi cocktails, Mrs.
Philip Coffin offers iced shrimp,
on toothpicks, accompanied by
a sauce of tropical fire and
intensity.
At the 1925 F Street Club,
where Mrs. James F. Curtis
presides so delightfully."-, a SIM
pie French salad of lettuce is
always served, both with lunch
con and with dinner-sometimes
partnered by thinly sliced ham,
or by an assortment of ex-
cellent cheeses.
Mrs. w. Forbes Morgan be-
lieveS-and proves, most sue
cessfully-that a casserole dish
of Spanish Chicken" highly
spiced. and piping hot, is a per-
feet dish for the formal dinner,
as a welcome change from the
ordinary roasts. filets. outlets,
etc.
Late Supper
At q recent buffet supper,
Mrs. Hawes Preston and Mrs.
PearSons Rust, acting as joint
hoStesses, served, as a first
course, pottery bowls of real
French onion soup-toaSt, grated
cheese. and all, so rich and de.
licious that every one demanded
second round.
Mrs. Francis Whitten has in
vented a delicious canape-
small pearl onions, rolled in
cream cheese, sprinkled with
paprika, and stuck, on tooth
picks, into half a grapefruit, or
a large red apple.
And Mrs. Jouett Shouse main
tains, with great reason, that
the best scrambled eggs in the
world for a late supper, are
those concocted on the spot, in
chatting dish, by the fair
hands of the hostess herself!

one Of Hollywood's big sacrifices
to artistic realism by submitting her
long chestnut tresses to the BARRIERS
shears and emerging with a boyish
bob for her role in R-K-O Radios
forthcoming production of Sylvia
Scarlett,' from the famed novel by
Compton Mackenzie, which follows
her recently completed "Alice Adams. u
In the first part of this colorful
romance, Hepburn Is called upon to
impersonate boy. Rather than take
chances with even the most perfect
wig, the star decided to be sure of THE
proper effect by turning herself over
to the ministrations of the studios

most popular heroines, and because
Fred Stone, veteran stage favorite, has
been signed up for two more pictures
after R-K-O saw how good he was
as Alice's father.
"China Seas"-Because it has Har-
low, Gable and Berry, and because,
therefore, anything is likely to happen.
"Top Hat"-Because the unbeatable
team of Fred Astaire and Ginger
Rogers get together again, and be-
cause the music is said to be tops" 4"
too.
"Anna Karenina"-On account:
Garbo.
Annapolis FareweIl"-Not only be-
cause it will have its world premiere
here at the Earle. with Navy officials
attending, ETC., but because we saw
some of it "in action" and know that
it has good cast, a good director
and at least one good-looking girl.
Furthermore, Sir Guy Standing, ever
since Lives of a Bengal Lancer" has
deserved a fat part like this-and
younger actors, such as Tom Brown
and Richard Cromwell, have their in
nings, too.
Dress Parade" (it probably has q
couple of other titles by now)-Be-
cause it was also made at Annapolis
when the thermometer lowered around
80 or 100, and because Ruby Keeler
has never looked better than she did
in that blueprint dress slhouetted
against the Chesapeake. Dick Powell
has hopes for it, too.
"Oliver Twist" - Because Freddie
Bartholomew will play Oliver and
because Hugh Walpole will again have
a hand in the treatment OF this
Dickens story. When Oliver asks for
more" we predict there won't be
dry eye in the audience.
midsummer Nights Dream"-Be-
cause every one from the Warner
Bros. studio except Marion Davies and
Phil Regan are in it and because 1t
will play at the National for two
weeks beginning October 20.
accent on Youth"-Mainly on ac-
count of Sylvia Sydney and Herbert
Marshall, but also because originally
it was fairly intelligent play.
"Green Grow the Lilacs"-Because
for too long now this excellent play
has been neglected by the movies and
because even if we don't think Richard
Dix is the right man for the leading
role, it ought to be pretty good film
anyway. Franchot Tone played it orig
inally on the stage. Why didn't
they get him?
'Ivanh0e"-Because it's about time
some one gave Sir Walter Scott
break,

at a hundred crossroads and started
their transcontinental march, ulti-
mately to throw themselves into the
sea of Broadway. They are bivouacked
at Kansas City; you will find them
lying down beside the still waters of
st. Louis or accepting with grateful
wonder the hospitality of Cleveland
Manhattan is crawling with tenor
hopefuls.
To date, as a matter Of fact, Chuck
Walters, who was last seen in New
York in the Theatre Guilds Commu-
mist miscarriage, Parade" has been
selected for the leading and perhaps
only juvenile role, but that doesn't
stop scores of other youths from
turning up daily at the Music Box,
where casting is in progress, and hop
ing to catch the wearied eye of Mr..
Porter or Mr.. Hart 3. The ill-starred
progress of Parade" was in no way
attributable to Mr.. Walters, who at
tracted deal of favorable attention
in his part, but derived rather from
the frustrated and less responsible
element in the Guild which imagined
that some of its more offensive So
cial fixations would make good COM
edy. They didn't.
OUT-oF-TowNERs contemplating
invasions of the asphaltine boule-
wards of Gotham would do well to re:
member that If they are of a mind
to combine celebrities with the busi-
ness of dining, the Green Room at
the Edison is getting an impressive
sprinkling of stage folk of an eve
ming. The Folies Bergere at the
French Casino still gives patrons
full-course dinner, a swift and dazzling
Continental revue and three dance
bands of note, all in air-cooled and
Byzantine surroundings, for two and
one-half dollars. If one contemplates
a visit to the Rainbow Room atop
Radio City, still the most spectacular
restaurant of the generation, it is
well to know that formal attire is abb
solutely requisite, and so pack at
least white dinner suit.

NAL conditions.
This season, however Hollywood S
Summer output has been better than
most. And the future positively CLEANS
with interest. Miss Garbo then will
be on her way back from Sweden, Mr..
Powell may have asked Jean Harlow
to be Mrs. Powell, some one will have
definitely ascertained if Miss CraW-
ford and Franchot Tone plan to be
married. and the Four Marx Brothers
will be back again on Broadway in a
musical play which Irving Thalberg
will then transplant to the screen.
With these sorts of things in the
air and with other pleasant items at
hand, it seems juStifiable to pause a
moment and go over what has been
good and what is likely to be good in
the movies the next month or so:
"The Farmer Takes a Wife"-Here
Is film which possesses quiet charm
and considerable dignity and which
has less Hollywood" in it than most
recent pictures. Its rambling story
OF life on the Erie Canal is different
and vaguely romantic-and even If
Ats drama is less cataclysmic than you
may like, it holds your interest
throughout. The performance OF
Henry Fonda, as the farmer, is un-
usually easy-going and attractive
And Janet Gaynor has learned some
Of June Walkers mannerisms down
to a at"
"The Irish in Us"-The harp and
the shamrock have a field day here
end so do Messrs. Cagney and O'Brien.
While it is pretty much all hokum, 1t
is the sort of hokum that you like.
There's new old lady in it by the
name of Mary Gordon who is being
groomed by Warner Bros. as a
second sort of Marie Dressler. We
doubt if she'll make the grade in this
capacity. but she's o. K. in her first
film. Then there's little Olivia De
Havilland, who knows how to speak
her lines and how to smile. The table
manners scene is pretty hard to take
but audiences howl nevertheless.
THE Man on the Flying Trapeze''
hasn't got a grain of sense to 1t.
Since it has w. C. Fields, it has even
less. Mr.. Fields being, however, our
favorite comic, we don't care. Even
without sense, all but the last part
Is swell.

anticipated:
