Of Gray Wooden

The redingote shown has a
gray wool coat, the weave a sort
of homespun, but firm like a
mans fabric. The belt is Of
black patent leather, and the
pockets are an unusual feature.
AS you can see, the coat can be
worn with any dress that har-
monies.
The dress is of gray and navy
print, a tiny Speckled pattern,
has a round collar that ties in
the back with long cords, fin
ished with taSselS that are in
turn finished with beads. The
costume is $685. and is reason
ably priced for its superior
quality and good tailoring.
The gray felt hat shown with
the redingote has a navy gros-
grain ribbon twisted and tied in
unusual manner, and the shape
is intriguing, as it is good for
sports, yet not severe, so that it
will look all right with softer
costumes too. It is priced $3.50.

Definite indications show that
women are reverting to the
ultra-feminine. And one out
standing sign is the rapidly
growing popularity of perfumes,
perfumed eau de cologneS and
toilet waters that come in
beautiful bottles.
It is known truth that often
an exquisite bottle will sell a
fragrance-for women love to
adorn their dressing tables with
crystal or glass containers that
smack of the elegant!

InescapabIe Tasks

When mother has to feed
a new little baby every three
or four hours, when-perhaps-
she has the unacceptable daily
task Of preparing formulas
and Sterilizing milk bottles,
when Baby simply must have
his bath, his play and his
fresh air, she who is responsible
for this vital performance has
no right to wear herself out
trying to keep over-ornamented
rooms busted.
That's one answer to the
Martha "overburdened with
much serving" who may COM
plain that she can't take the
time in the middle of a busy
morning to give her infant the
rather careful and elaborate
daily bath which a former ar"
ticle in this series described,
and to wait while, without his
clothes, he has a wonderful time,
kicking, rolling, arm-waving and
in other ways doing the daily
dozen" Of exercises he gleefuly
will devise for himself.

For Many Occasions

We selected two smart cos
tunes for photographing, good
examples of more formal suits,
and of redingotes, and as they
seemed also good for your first
trip to Bowie, we posed them
with a program. the models
might even be watching a
track meet or a baseball game.
The suit on the left is of
beige corded wool, with a lovely
collar of beige fox, soft and
silky, which ties with ends of
the fabric. The coat is the
"dressy swagger" that you hear
so much about, and that is easy
for people of all figures and
types to wear. This suit, even
with such fine fox, is only $49.75.
The hat is of brown straw and
betting ribbon, and is $40. It's
a smart shape, new as spring

in navy-blue silk twill and has

flower, like the white line that
runs down the side of the dress
to look like a white frock un-
der the blue coat, is also OF

Write Notes
Of Thanks
By MRs.CORNELIUs BEECKMAN

BY MRS. CORNELIUS BEECKMAN
Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
= Please give me some advice.
Is it proper for a bride-to-be to
send out thank-you cards after
a surprise shower party? If she
should, what should she write?
T.
The polite and gracious girl
does write notes of thanks, a
day or two after the shower,
to her friends who have brought
gifts to her. Not thank-you
cards, remember; thank-you
notes. Since only close friends
of hers are usually the guests
at a shower given for her, her
notes will naturally be informal
and chatty. Maybe something
like this will suggest a form:
Dear Florence:
You're a dear! Characteristic
cally dear you were yesterday,
to think so sweetly of me and
so generously, and to bring me
such a grand gift. The linen
breakfast set is adorable-and If
I don't greet the dawn with a

set for my breakfast table,
there is no help for me. I can't
wait to show you how lovely it
is on a table-I've already set

SANDWICH GETS
FULL HONORS
LAURA ZONES

Lord Sandwich at last has come
into full recognition not only as
the inventor of a modern con-
venience, but as a thorough
apostle of the much soughtafter
vitamin.
The English noble, or so the
story goes, was the first to slap
a piece of meat between two
slices of bread and smack his
lips at the resulting delicacy.
For many years the discovery
has been hailed as a blessing by
luncheon eaters who are on a 30
minute schedule. However. it
took science to discover that Lord
Sandwich was the progenitor of a
healthful connection.
District Health Officer George
C. Rutland placed his official
blessing on the sandwich as con-
tanning all of the much needed
vitamins to sustain workers
through the day.

50 HIGHWAYS
Maryland Police Perfect New
System For Quick Action
In Trapping Criminals

Thirty-nine highways leading in
and out of Maryland can be
blocked within one hour after an
alarm is received, according to a
plan now being worked out by the
Maryland State police.
The system, devised to aid the
capture of criminals either eScap-
ing from the State or entering
Maryland, will make it necessary
to transfer some of the men now
stationed in small towns, but it
will not be necessary to move any
of the SubStationS, according to
j. Purdon Wright, superintendent
of the force.
Due to the number of men now
on the force, only the main high
ways will be covered, Mr.. Wright
said. The secondary roads will
remain under the present patrol
system.
Another arrangement by which
headquarters may reach various
officers quickly by telephone is
also being devised.
Two hundred yellow pennant-
shaped flags will be distributed
to filling stations, garages a n d
other establishments along the
roads Travelled by patrol cars.
If the flag is lowered, the pass
ing officer will know that he is
to call his station.

Especially .-Hagerstown is being
invaded by an army Of japanese
beetles.
The pests have appeared in
large numbers in the last three
weeks and have wrought havoc to
foliage in the western section
of this city.
Thousands of the beetles have
been caught in the traps set by
beetle scouts. Reports have been
received of damage in the county
districts.
At the annual summer field
meeting of the Maryland State

LOSS HERE

Unless additional funds are
forthcoming, 1900 men, 200 Of
them in the District, will lose
their jobs with the Coast and
Geodetic Survey, which has been
conducting a nationwide map and
survey project for the last three
years.
It was learned yesterday that
attempts to obtain additional
funds from the Works Progress
Administration had snagged be-
cause the PWA wage scale is con-
siderably lower than the pay
rates now in effect on the project.
The work, which has given
employment to engineers, has
cost about 100000 to date and
its accomplishments have been
highly commended by the Ma.

Started in the closing months
Of the Hoover administration, the
work was continued under PreSi-

The majority of the personnel
are college-trained engineers.
Salaries in Washington run from
