MRS. DONA D MATTISON'S

convinced us that the unusual hair
dresses sponsored by fashion maya
zines can be copied with success.
Flat curls we're rolled back like
sculptSred ringlets off her forehead,
and on each side a wine-colored
flower with silver leaves held the
hair in place. The curled effect con-
tinued around the sides over her
ears and in back. With the excep-
ton Of the frame of curls, her blond
hair was unwaved.
The couture turned our attention
from gowns TO hairdresses.
Mrs. Ralph Lieber, appearing as
"Ossie," invited admiration for her
American Beauty velvet gown, which
flowed In graceful folds. Triangular
cutouts forming the decolletage
caught attention.
Mrs. Lieber's bobbed hair was
sleek and becomingly waved A mass
Of flowers harmonizing with the
gown almost covered one side of the
curls.
In the audience, Miss Brownie Mis-
kimen's reddish blond bobbed hair
was fuffed out youthfully below two
eggshell feather quilts, meeting at
the back.
QuainCness,was the effect achieved
by the braid circling Mrs. G. B.
Jackson's blond hair. Geranium
shaded flowers nestled in the ruff
f1es standing out ebout the neckline
of the gray chiffon gown.

SPIRITUAL NEEDS
 THEME OF SERMON

We who live. in an age when science and inventions pour their beauty into our laps and when we are all rich in creature comforts compared with men of but two or tree generations ago, need to be reminded that over and above the basic physical needs there are the fundamental spiritual needs" said Rev. Dr. John N. 0. Walker, pastor of the Second Congregational church, in his sermon yesterday morning.
 It Is well that among the con- temporary voices that clamor for at tention there are those which serve to recall men of old who pointed out the way of sef-respect and vision and claim of our kinShip with the eternal. Nothing can crush the man or the woman whose faith is in God. Happiness can be taken away temporarily but blessedness r:mains. Suffering may come but .t transnutes the base metal into the pure gold. Belond trouble, wisdom, after suffering triumph. What has been loss proves gain. All these things are part of the parade of this world.

The Salvation Army's harvest festival observance, which has be- come traditional event on the calendar of the organization. att tracted good attendances at the ci- tadel on Savings street over the week Colonel and Mrs. Sven Wiberg, parents of the ofacer-in- charge, were guests of honor and spoke in the services Saturday and Sunday nights.

 Tonight the fruits and vegetables which have been on display in the hail over the eek-end will be alc-

as the JefferSonian democrats had hoped. So far their performance in New England and elsewhere has not matched the promises made in their Detroit organization meeting last August.
 Sen. David I. Walsh of Massachu- sets has not bolted the New Deal administration of MT. Roosevelt but he had been notably cold to it in the past two legislative years in Washington. Rhode Island pre- sents a more vigorous objector. Sen. Peter c. Geery, long the dominant democrat of the staet, boycotted the democratic national convention last June and willingly permitted him- self to be voted out of office as democratic national committeeman.
 I have heard no serious sugges- ton that Vermont and New Hamp- shire are not safely and surely re- publican this year. There is an oc- cassional expression of doubt about Connecticut.
 Taking New England as poli- tical whole, President Roosevelt car- ried 1t in 1882. Score: Roosevelt, two states with 2l electoral votes; Hoover, four states with 20 electoral votes. Taking New England as 1t is discovered today by inquiry among comparatively impartial ob- servers, it probably will cast its Al electoral votes for Gov. Ali M. Lam don. The democratic drive headed by Presidential Roosevelt would bitterly disappoint republicans if 1t made off with New EnglandS poe Ntical prize package, the 17 electoral vote of Massachusetts.
 Mir. Roosevelt has the advantage of comparative prosperity which New England shares now with the rest of the United States. It IS prosperity compared with 1882 ana that factor usually is enough to win a national election. But the po- litical situation is confused both in this region and throughout the na- tion-so confused that the only truly safe prediction is that Cover nor Landon will carry Maine ana MT. Roosevelt the solid south, and that he and Gov. Landon will di- vide the decisive states between them.
 Gov. Landon does not appear to have aroused any hysterical enthu- sias min New England. If he carries New England 1t probably will be less because of what he does and says and more because of things MT Roosevelt has done which New Eng land does not like-such as enact- ment of MIRA, AAA, and increased taxation.
