Wants His Varsity Letter

TINE unfortunate motorman was quiet citizen
who struck the bellicose stranger only in desper-
alton, but now he was famous throughout South
Bend Ind and all the tough guys began to look him
up and swing punches at him so that they could have
the honor of licking the man who knocked out John
l.. Sullivan. Soon he was forced to leave town. and
that may be Mr. Gallico's fate.
Our hero however, is standing on his one achieve
ment and is cabling to Saks Fifth-av, where he
studied skiing on Mount EPSON, the indoor Alp, to
demand his varsity letter.
His worst fear now is that the American coach
will tap him the shoulder and deliver the terrible
news that he has made the team.
The German typewriter is positively not ma
chine gun, after all, but very ingenious mech

Writing Notes
Of Apology

ByMRS.CORNELIUS BEECKMAN
Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
81 would like to write a letter
Of apology to a boy friend, but i
do not know how to word it. The
reason isl was out with this
young man the other evening and
/ seemed to diSpleaSe him, as / was
very irritable because / did not feel
well. How can 1 regain his friend
ship and not appear to be eager or
forward? "READER."
Probably the best way of deal
ing with this irritable" evening
is to pass it over with no comment.
This kind of evening is apt to hap
pen in the give-and-take of friend
ship, and the lesson Of it is not to
indulge in them, for they are not
interesting manifestations.
However, if you think it needs
a definite apology, your note
might say:
Dear Tommy:
Can you forgive me for being
so peeviSh the other evening?
had looked forward so happily to
seeing you, but 1 had had such a
hard and difficult day at the Of
flee, that my fatigue made me
say irritable things and should
think you would have been irri
tated with me. I'm sorry, and I
do hope that you will skip my un-
mannerlineSS. You've always been
so understanding that 1 am sure
Of your forgiveness. Please!

Gloria likes the out-of-door
sports and is in the surf swim
ming whenever she has time to
go to the beach, so of course she
does tan during the summer
months, and has her own method
of removing this duSky shade.
She says the oils and Suntan
lotions assure a good even tan,
but when the outdoor complexion
begins to fade, it is so apt to do
it in patches, and we turn from q
gorgeous bronze to somewhat
spotted effect.
She does not use a skin bleach,
as she finds the ones that are
strong enough to do any good in
quick restoration to the natural
shade are too strong for the skin.
She said:
$50, instead of trying to get rid
Of my tan quickly, 1 use only
my ordinary creams with their
mild bleaching agents. Then
through this transition stage, I
use a heavier foundation makeup
which covers the uneven skin
tones, and gradually change to
a lighter shade or leave it off
altogether, and depend on a
rather dark shade of powder"

To some people Sauerkraut IS
thought of only in connection with
pork cuts, but it is equally appetiz-
ing in combination with vege-
tables. It's health value is un-
questioned.
It is rich in Vitamins A, B and
c. It has also PHOSPHORUS, cal
cium and iron. Add to these ele-
mentS is the presence of generous
quantities Of Tactic acid, which is
considered valuable in the diet.
It loses none of it's health proper
ties when cooked.
Here are five tested recipes
that show how diversified a role
it can fill in the dietary:
Brisket of Beef and Sauerkraut
~ pounds Of brisket of beef
2 cups of Sauerkraut
medium-sized onions
Paprika
Place the meat in a baking
dish and surround it with the
kraut. Add just enough water to
moist the kraut we'll. Add the
onions and sprinkle with paprika.
Place in oven and bake slowly
until meat is done-about two
hours.
Sauerkraut and Pork Casserole
l pound of pork or pork sausages
! 1-3 cup of tomato soup
312 cups of Sauerkraut
1-3 cups Of water
2 cups Of cooked rice
On bottom of the baking dish
place the pork cut into small
pieces, then place a layer of kraut
and a layer of rice. Over this
pour the tomato soup diluted with
an equal amount of water. If raw
sausage or pork is used bake for
As minutes If cooked pork is
used, bake one-half hour.
Escalloped Sauerkraut With
Cheese
2 tablespoons of butter
2 tablespoons of flour
2 cups of milk
y teaspoon of salt
Is teaspoon of paprika
2 cups Of sauerkraut
l cup of grated cheese
u cup of buttered crumbs

butter, adding flour. Add the
scalded milk Seasonings and heat
until thickened. Spread a layer of
half the sauerkraut on the bottom
of buttered baking dish, cover
with half of the white sauce, then
layer of grated cheese. Add a
second layer of kraut, white sauce,
and cheese. and top with the layer
Of buttered crumbs. Brown in
the oven.

FASHION is everywhere! Just
Il name me something to wear,
to eat, to use in the home, where
fashion hasn't left its mark. Per-
haps there are few spots, but not
in nightWear, even good old flan-

cite gowns and pyjamas in the
most attractive styles-some of
them positively lay claim to having
lure. We liked particularly the
Russian pyjamas which we've had
Sketched for today. They are in
two tones, in blue or pink, and
piped in contrasting color. The
collar, cuffs and band down the
front are of fine quality Sateen,
which really looks like silk broad
cloth. Even the pocket has its
trimming and piping. Other styles
include the usual tailored, double
breasted model, and one that is
quite cute with a fringed tie. They
come in all sizes, and are $1.30
per pair.
MOT only are these stockings
~ water repellent and spot proof,
but they have several other fea-
lures to recommend them as prac-
tical and good-looking. They have
a built-in piece on the sides to pre-
vent wearing at those spots, as so
many stockings do; they are of
even texture, clear and cookbook
ing; and they have a very narrow
heel, which gives the ankles Slen-
der appearance. They come in four
weights, chiffon, sheer chiffon,
walking chiffon and service weight.
In all the smart autumn and win
ter colors, they are priced IS cents.

Shirley herself passed by with
her parents while we were talking,
and she is not so large or stout as
she seems on the Screen-but to
get back to Miss Gloria, she, too, is
small-the fragile, willowy type
we like to associate with romance.
Charm and POise
She told us she was something
of an extremist, and cared nothing
for the middle path, but must be
extreme in everything; that only
the fastest cars or the gayest OF
bright lights, or deepest solitude
would interest her, but we found
her a sensible, well-balanced girl
with unusual charm and poiSe.
We went to her dressing room to
get out of the hot sun, and were
glad to have the opportunity to
see the smart little suite. There
were two large rooms and an at
tractive bath in pastel tints as well
as several closets, and a retrigera'
tor.
The rooms were done in soft
rose shades toning into a deep
American beauty shade. A large
couch in this deep rich color was
of satin. The walls and ceiling
were a very delicate green, and the
furniture was of exquisite mahog'
any in original pieces.
Gloria has made an intensive
study Of furniture and interior
decoration, as well as color blend.
ing, and has collected some very
fine antiques. Everyone is amazed
at her ability to find these rare
old pieces and know the genuine
from the imitation. Some Of the
things she had assembled were for
her new home. The living room in
her home will be done in white
with gold Grapes of rather white
gold tint; then the furniture will
be all mahogany in the same
antique design with an American
beauty carpet and some chartreuse
upholstered benches to bring out
the contrast.
Active In Sports
With her home and her hus-
band, her big interest in life is
her little daughter, Sylvia, named
after Princess Sylvia" the part
she was playing when she met
her husband, the well-known
scenarist, Arthur Sheekman.
According to the photographers,
Gloria possesses one of the few
really perfect camera faces in
Hollywood, with no forbidden
angles" to trouble the camera
man. The purity of her COM
plexion is also a joy to these
technicianS.

Gift For a Man

III ERE'S another grand gift
IA for a man-one that has
lasting value, as we'll as being
a delight for the present. It's
a special shaving set, brought
out by a we'll known firm, but
called Mansfield" which name
means a lot, when you think of
it. The set consists of an after
shaving lotion, of great powers
of refreshment, but delicately
scented; shaving cream, and
talcum. The toiletries come in
a tray which can be lifted out,
and of course they can be
bought as refills. The grandest
part of the whole business,
aside from the quality of the
preparations, however, is the
fact that the case is of genuine
leather, a heavy tan case, which
has places in the lid for your
own pet razor and shaving
brush, or whatever you prefer
to keep there. You really could
include all your toilet articles,
and call it a travelling case.
The fragrance is lavendar, and
is not too strong for the aver

perhaps you can keep him from
getting one before Christmas,
but I doubt it.
