@. What Is the Jewish Feast
of Hanukkah?


of Hanukkah?
A. The Feast of Dedication,
known In Hebrew as Hanukkah,
will begin TUESDAY evening. Dec.
8, and will be Gel. grated for
eight days by Jews Iii all parts
Of the world. The festival COM
memorates the deliverance OF
the Jewish people two thousand
years ago from he oppression
Of the Syrian Greeks and is
one Of joyous celebration as
religious devotion.
Hanukkah takes its name
from the fact that the Temple
was purified and rededicated to
the service Of God after It's re-
capture from the hands OF the
Greeks who had defiled 1t with
pagan and idolatrous worship.
Literally the name means "ded-
ication," but the holiday Is also
known as the Feast Of Lights
because Of the custom Of light
ing candles during the festival:
one candle. the first night: two.
the second land SO on. until
on the last night the candel-
abrum blazes with eight lights.
This custom Is derived from o
legend which tells that during
the rehabilitation ceremonies q
cruise OF oil which was thought
scarcely adequate for one day.
miraculously served 10 keep the
lamp alight for full eight days.
The hero and central figure OF
the festival Is the stalwart Jul
dab Maccabeus who led the
struggle 10 resist the Greeks and
their command that the Jews
should abandon their God and
wOrahlp zeus.

@. Are Christlon missions In
China making any deep impress
siOns ON that land?

A. This question cannot be
answered satisfactorily within
the limits of this column. We
will cite only one significant
fact: One out Of every six Of
all persons listed In China's
Who's Who Is a Christian-and
this In the face Of the fact that
Christians In China number on
the average only one In a thou
sand Of the population.
q. Can you quote the oath
which the ministers Of Germany
have been asked to take?
A. The oath reads as follows:
II, as a minister ordained In
the Church Of Jesus Christ,
swear my absolute and unqual-
flied allegiance to Adolph Hit
Ter, to the Reach church gov
eminent, to its DEGREES and all
its interpretations Of its DEGREES,
not only In my present office
but In any future Office may
hold in the Church"
@. Why are there altar boys
I'm Catholic churches?
A. Altar boys are used for
subordinate duties In aiding the
clergy In the celebration OF sa-
cred ceremonies. Altar boys light
the candles on the altar and
carry lighted torches In relig-
ious professions and during the
solemn singing Of the Gospel.
They prepare wine and water
for the Sacrifice OF the Mass.
and assist the priest ut Mass
and during public services OF
the church.

they increase In magnificance and
elaborateness Of design they take their
place among the splendid jewels for
gala evenings.
NHOWN above Is new collection OF
rhinestone jewelry that contains q
variety Of beautiful pieces selected IN
a Washington shop. Originally dis
played on a dark blue mirror glass, the
glittering effect was stunning. The
rings shown at the top center contain
simulated sapphires with rhinestones,
continuing the blue and diamond idea.
Outstanding in this group Is the
lovely orchid pin in the center, which
is an exact copy Of a diamond piece
designed by Boivin Of Paris. Delicate
veining through the center Of the
petals is outlined in simulated emer-
aids. This design also comes with
the veining in other jewel tones.
The bow knot at the center bottom
Of the picture is favorite piece, as
it fits easily into so many places on
different frocks. There Is intricate
scrollwork on the ribbon ends, with
baguette stones through the knot.

are lower in price. "Portuga" melons
are plentiful, too. They are generally
called Spanish melons. but since they
are now imported from Portugal, they
have been rechristened. Grapefruit Is
at its prime, as it should be. The
mammoth thin-skinned ones have ar
rived and are selling for three for
twenty-five. The pink meat variety
from Texas have arrived, too. Oranges
can still improve, though those for
juice are fairly good. The first ship
ment of tangerines have been received,
though somewhat late they are still
far below par. Very small and pale

however, should be in any day now.

THE "open weather" is also largely
responsible for the variety of sea
food at the fish stands. Even a few
butterfish and perch. two Midsummer
fish, have been received. Fresh
founder, filet of sole and mullets.
favorite Carolina fish, are unusually
plentiful. Plenty of rockfish have
been caught, according to reports, and
the large baking and broiling size are
delicious. They are among the buys
of the week. Red snappers, the fav-
orite Winter fish, has appeared, too.
Fancy blues, even though their season
has past, are also available.

Jewels are in fashion again-jewels
for every hour of the day. THE
only women who do not wear them
are the women who do not possess
them," is the comment Of a fashion
authority of New York and Paris.
Caution has been thrown to the
four winds and an age of elegance
Is with US. The sumptuousness of this
seasons clothes Is flttingly compile
mented with beautiful jewels. Their
suavely flowing feminine lines, their
luxurious fabrics, even their necklines
and sleeves, all contribute toward q
mode which lovely jewelry completes.
Necklines especially are the focal
point for jeweled treatment. They are
often draped for a feeling of width.
Many smart cocktail and dinner gowns
have low v necklines. High necklines
continue to prevail, but of the utmost
simplicity. All these are foils for clip
brooches, clips, pins and necklaces.
The new square decolletages of formal
gowns are particularly well suited to
the display of beautiful necklaces.
Rhinestones glitter from every col
lection Of jewelry and are used from
early morn till early morn-straight
around the clock! Pearls are ex-
tremely well liked also, and often
combined with rhinestones. Pearls
know few age limitations. In small
strands they are the ideal jewels for
the young girl. In one, two and three

Marks on
ReportCard
Consider Hidden Fac.
tors Responsible
for Grading.
BY ANGELO PATRI.

r EpoRT cards make more trouble
for parents and children than Is
proportionate to their meaning. A
child gets 80 in history. Why didn't
he get 80 and so make the honor roll?
Because he wrote 1907 as the date Of
the settlement of Plymouth instead Of
1920. He mixed jamestown and
Plymouth. The honor roll child got
the date correctly.
Suppose that instead Of asking
about Plymouth and jamestown the
question had been about the people
of those settlements. Would the
marks have been quite the same?
Would one child still have 80 and the
other 90? Maybe not. Indeed, there
may be better quality in the 80 paper
than in the 30. But quality does not
show on the card. Quality is a mat
ter Of the mind, the spirit, and there
is no mark that can stand for the in
tangible.
Then, too. the teachers mind and
mood have their influence on ratings.
That cannot be helped, nor would ]
have 1t changed. Marks that have
no human feeling behind them are
meaningless. The child makes GER
tain impressions upon the mind of the
teacher. Those impressions are legiti-
mate. The child's behavior sets them
and, therefore, they are important.
In reading report card one must
read behind the marks, between them
and through them to the child in
question. He Is shadowed in those
marks. Make no mistake about that.
The mathematical accuracy of the
marks is never so important as the
intangible factors that forced them
to appear on the card. If there Is q
list of satisfactory marks you know
beyond doubt that the child is doing
his required work. II here and there
low mark shows. you can be certain
that somehow, somewhere, in some
capacity or in some quality, the child
did not sustain himself.
It is a mistake to take o report
card as something final. At its best,
or worst, 1t Is but a reflection Of o
reflection Of q child Nobody can
measure q child's effort, or his work,
with unerring finality. The best we
can do Is set down our Judgment OF
what he seems to be at the time. The
mark must cover broad area. The
best way to look at it Is mark that
symbolizes a general notion Of his
effort or ability. You can be certain,
however, that If the mark is good the
child Is doing well and II it Is poor
there Is something wrong.
Try not to make poor report card
tragedy and q good one q triumph.
Try to keep q sense Of proportion
about the whole matter. Let the
child feel that as long IS he does his
best you are pleased with him.

body Gbout them as miserable as they
are themselves.
OF course, the chronic discouragers
do their bit in public life by preach
ing that the country is going to the
dogs, and starting panics and runs on
banks by destroying peoples conf
dence and by fighting all progress and
! never being willing to go into any
| new enterprise, and so on, but it is in
the home circle that they get in their
great and perfect work.
You can always tell woman who
is married to a chronic discour-
ager, because Of the way she has
Stacked down and the oh-what's-the-
use look that she wears. Even her
permanent is stringy, as if it didn't
have enough pep to stand up and take
| it any longer. And she doesn't bother
to doll herself up and fix up the house
and put some flavor in the cooking.
She used to be on her tiptoes when
she was first married, but after her
husband had doused her every effort
to please him she just lost heart in
her job. What was the use of trying
to look pretty for man who never
remarked on anything but the price
of her frocks and whose only COM
ment on a perfect dinner was that
the pie crust had too much butter
in it?
And by the same signs and tokens
you can know the husband who is
married to chronic discourager. He
Is the meek, downtrodden drudge who
sits on the same stool in an account-
ing room for 40 years because his
wife has melted down all his cour-
age with her dismal prophecies OF
failure until he is scared to ask for
raise in salary. He started out full
Of hope and faith in himself. He was
going to do great things. He wanted
to go into business for himself. There
were good openings that he wanted to
take. But his wife's lack of faith in
him made him lose faith in himself
and he settled down into being
failure.
But it is the children who are the
most pitiful victims of the chronic
discourager. They are too young and
ignorant to know how to discount
their parents croakings. And so.
when their fathers and mothers tell
them that they cannot do what other
men and women have done, that there
are no opportunities to rise in the
world nowadays, they believe the pes
simistic doctrine. 1t saps their cour-
age. 1t quenches their ambition. 1t
turns them into cutters who are
licked before they ever begin to fight.
There are many evil men and won-
en- in the world, but doubt if any do
more harm than the chronic discour-
ayers. DOROTHY DIX.

twisted ropes of seed pearls in several
strands up to six, with dull gold clasps.
Bracelets to match.
Pearl bar pins are handy to pin a
collar that needs little adjustment
to hold down some obstreperous folds
of an afternoon or evening dress. A
butterfly Of tiny pearls is good, too.
Pearl rings are being worn once
more. Single pearls surrounded with
rhinestones or set singly with rhine
stone chips set into the ring on either
side are effective.
Apropos of pearls, there is an inter-
esting word picture of Queen Eliza
beth in which she is described as "a
pale Roman nose, head Of hair laden
with crowns and powdered with dia-
monds, a vast ruff, vaster farthin-
gale and bushel of pearls"
If you have real pearls. they should
have as good care as your teeth. They
should be kept clean and restrung at
intervals and watched for slightest
cracks or blemishes. Some skins en-
hance the luster of pearls, while others
do not have this magic charm, and
unless the powder used is specially
prepared. pearls are soon covered with
powder and impaired by perspiration.

Tips on the Food Market
BY LUCIE EBERLY.

A LMOST anything you may be wish
ing for Is available in the vege-
table line. Asparagus from California,
usually not arriving before Thanks
giving, has already become regular"
at the stands, having been received
daily since it first made its appear
ance a week or so ago. 1t is very
good and quite reasonable. Arti-
chokes, too, are at their best and have
dropped considerably in price. Cauli-
flower, Savoy and celery cabbage,
three Winter items, are among the
buys Of the week. Land cress and
spinach, baby kale and turnip greens
are plentiful. Endive or chicory for
boiling or salad is especially good.
Summer squash, yellow and green,
continues to come in regularly
Shayotes squash. from Florida, is a
new item to arrive at local stands.
According to merchants, it is very
similar in taste to the Summer squash
We are more familiar with. 1t Is
green in color, looks very much like
ounce and is like a potato in texture,
being solid and without seeds.
Broccoli continues to arrive in good,
steady lots. Light. green, fiat and
round beans, peas from the West
Coast and limas from Florida are all
very good. Carrots, turnips and
beets, parsnips, rutabagas, oyster
plant and German turnips," the
Winter root ensemble, are at their
prime. Eggplant, mushrooms. okra,
small white onions for boiling and
creaming, leeks for soup, red and
green peppers and large Spanish
onions for French frying round out
an excellent list for week end buying.
Avocados are being received in large
shipments and are consequently much
cheaper. Hot-house tomatoes. those
red-ripe, meaty 'love apples" that
have a flavor all their own, are COM
ing in more steadily now and have
dropped a little in price. Regular
tomatoes from the South and West
have improved, too. Lettuce, endive,
romaine. celery, watercress, cucumbers
and radisheS are all fine.

to have found its place among the

Style Show
Emphasizes
Accessory
Hosiery Is One Of
Most Importan mt
Items This Fall.

T OSIERY was highlghted as
an accessory Of supreme i'm
i i portance in an unusual
fashion show given this week
in q local shop. With the general
acceptance of the shorter skirt by
fashion authorities and well-dressed
women, the value Of the stocking as
an integral part Of the ensemble Is
greatly increased.
Miss Lucille Beck, fashion con-
sultant, who came to Washington to
conduct this interesting show, gave
a most delightful and informative
talk on correct hosiery for all types
of costumes, and at the same time
included other accessories that con-
tribute so much to the perfect en-
senble. She had many valuable tips
to offer to the woman who would be
well dressed at little expense, stress
ing the importance Of a few care
fully chosen clothes properly fitted,
that may be varied by changes Of
accessories. start out with one good,
basic dress and keep on building
vour wardrobe around It," was her
suggestion.
Miss Beck settled the question OF
what to wear with gold-and-silver
slippers. She advised that you match
your hosiery to your skin tones Tor
the most flattering effect, and 1t Is
not a bad idea to make up legs to
match arms and compilations! "Au-
tumn glow" a light, coppery tone, Is
indicated as suitable for evening wear
with white as well as metallics.
In general, the stout leg looks best
In stockings Of the more neutral grayed
tones. as these shades give the optical
illusion of decreasing the size, while
the slender leg Is enhanced by q more
vibrant, coppery shade.
Correct shades of hosiery for all the
beautiful costume colors being worn
this season were displayed against q
background of selected fabrics. These
materials were used in similarly de-
signed Quaker frocks, with full-
gathered skirts, open at the front to
display the hose to best advantage,
and including all types Of occasions
from the sports girl in plaid woolen
to the bride in cleaning brocaded
satin.
The Quaker girls showed - fasci-
mating ways Of combining this sea-
sons accessories, blending dress fab
ric, jewels. shoes, bag and gloves, ana
always emphasizing the correct shade
Of hosiery for each ensemble. The
black dress, which was shown as the
basis of every woman's wardrobe, Is
capable Of more accessory tricks than
any other. A lovely copper tone called
trust glow" was shown with black IS
q youthful choice. A necklace and
bracelet of large clusters Of pearls set
in dull gold and turquoise chiffon
handkerchief relieved the somberness
Of the black. Bag. shoes and gloves
were Of black suede.
