A SPECIAL shop for slim
IA people to buy their girdles
in has been opened up by a
downtown store-all because
debutantes are wearing girdles
these days, and because it's
been hard for them to find the
right type, and to be fitted cor
rectly by corsetieres who were
accustomed to struggling with
laces and bones. You can find
everything from a garter belt
to an all-in-one in this special
shop, which is separate from
the regular corset department,
and is under the supervision
Of one Miss Martin, who has
been specially trained to give
advice to the young, the grow
ing, or those with figures that
look young and slim. She will
help you select the proper
girdle or other garment for
your particular figure, and she
will not put you into "corsets"
If you shouldn't have them.
Best of all, there is a much
more complete selection, be-
cause of the separate shop.

TELEPHONE HOUND"
Dear Miss Fairfax:

There is certain girl 1 know
who keeps calling me up, both at
home and at the office. At home
1 get raZZed. At the office / am
in terror of losing my job. I hate
to be rude to this young person,
but / never make conversation and
answer as briefly as possible. I
have never taken her out on q
date. How can 1 be saved from
this pest? "R. B."
The young lady seems to belong
to that vast sisterhood known as
telephone hounds" and it's a
waste of time and forbearance to
deal gently with them.
Why not write the young lady
a letter and confide in her as you
have in me that you are teaSed
at home and likely to lose your
job at the office? Make her de-
clare a moratorium.

The preparation of such a dish
begins with the selection of fish.
Only that which you know is
fresh should be purchased. This
can be determined to a large ex-
tent by its appearance.
If the scales are dull and break
easily, the gills a deep red, and
the eyes dull, you will know that
the fish is no longer in prime con-
dition. The safest buy is the fish
that Is locally caught and coming
in daily in large quantities.
The new methods of shipping
make it possible to purchase
frozen fish of excellent quality
that has been shipped in. This
should be used at once after it
has thawed out.
Certain fish that are on the
market now are what is know as
dry fleshed fish. In this case salt
pork, butter or strips Of bacon
are needed in preparation. Cod,
haddock, bass, trout, and founder
are in this class.
There are many "best" ways Of
preparing fish. Choosing for it
the proper sauce is important.
For baked fillet of sole, this sauce
made from shrimp is delicious.
Shrimp Sauce
1 cup milk
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons flour
1-3 cup shrimp
tablespoon capers
Salt, pepper
Make a white sauce by adding
flour and butter to hot milk, and
cooking until thickened. Then
add salt, paprika, the cooked
shrimps, and capers. Heat to
boiling and serve over the baked
fish.
Founders are coming in and are
delicious when served broiled.
BrOiIed Founder
IL pound fillet of founder
Juice of half a lemon
2 teaspoons onion
l teaspoon minced parsley
Butter, salt, pepper
Melt about three tablespoons Of
butter. Brush the fillet with but
ter, sprinkle with salt, and place
on the broiler under a moderate
flame. Chop the onion and pars-
ley, and squeeze juice from the
half of lemon.
When the fish is almost cooked,
sprinkle with the lemon juice,
place the minced onion and pars-
ley on top and continue cooking
until golden brown. The total
time of cooking is about II min
uteS.
The beauty Of a planked fish
is one to long remember. Sword
fish is coming in from northern
waters. Its meaty fIavorful tex
ture makes it perfect for planking.
PIanked SwOrdfish
Swordfish cut one-half inch thick
Salt, pepper
Butter
Lemon juice
4 cups 1lu11y ITCH mdSQeQ pOGa-

2 cups chopped cooked beets

Salt and pepper the fish, brush

place on the oiled broiler rack.
Broil minutes, then turn and

Have the potatoes cooked, mashed
and seasoned. Transfer the fish

Their Home
Ruined

Dear Miss Fairfax:
81 am 80 years old, and have
three children. The youngest was
maInutritiOn baby and as a re-
suit of this has to wear steel sup
ports on her ankles because her
bones are weak. She also has very
serious eye trouble.
81 went back to my former job
to help things out. In addition to
working eight hours q day did
all the hOusework, getting up as
early q five sometimes to do the
washing and cooked dinner after
1 got home.
"The result was a nervous break
down. / had to go to the hospital,
had a serious operation and blood
transfusiOnS.
''While 1 was in the hospital my
husband became interested in q
girl ~ years of age, and she, ap-
parently, returned his affection.
1 offered him a divorce, because I
was disguised. He declines the di-
vOrce because he doesn't wish to
lose the children, of whom he Is
very fond.
"He has no affection for me any
more, but we still keep under the
same roof, for the children's sake.
1 shall soon be well enough to take
up my old job, but 1t all seems
such a mess to me.
"HEARTSICK."
Sometimes it is wiser to go
along with a tragic situation than
to decide about it hastily. If you
read this column regularly, you
know I always suggest a home for
the children, where they may grow
up with both parents. But it's a
serious question, in my mind, II
children would derive any bene-
fit from such a home as you
describe.
think it would be we'll for you
to talk out your case with the
Legal Aid Society before taking
any steps. You havn't told me
what your husbands income is,
and if you do separate. he should.
of course, provide for the children.
I feel Pollyanna-ish in suggest
ing that it is very fortunate you
have profession to which you
can return. So many women in
your place have no means at all
of earning a penny, and have to
accept situations such as you de-
scribe.

Artur Schnabel, renowned inter
prefer Of Beethoven, broke a prece-
dent yesterday afternoon at Con.
stitution Hall when he responded
to the enthusiasm Of the large
audience with an additional So
nata Opus IA, No. 2.
The audience was well aware Of
the custom Of Mr.. Schnabel in
refusing to give encores, with the
result that a large proportion Of
the people had left. Mr.. Schnabel
explained afterward that an en-
core was due to the Washington
audience because he felt he had
not done justice to the first sonata
on the program. Opus 81, No. /,
as the chair he was using while
playing this work kept sliding
backward.
After some experimentation a
chair was found that possessed
the proper non-skid qualities and
he proceeded with the program.
Many Of his auditors had scores
on their knees and followed them
with concentrated interest.
Mr.. Schnabel conveyed q feel
ing Of authority in his perfectly
proportioned presentation Of the
Beethoven SonataS. His approach
to the piano is as one who kneels
before the throne Of q genius and
proceeds to interpret in utmost
simplicity and humbleneSS.
There is nothing theatrical in
his movements, rather he gives
the impression Of playing in an
informal manner for q group Of
friends who like himself are low
ers OF Beethoven. He obtains the
maximum result with an ap-
parently minimum of effort. He
enters into the widely divergent
spirit Of each sonata in manner
that is q delight to listen to.
His program was well chosen
for contrasts. In his, published
scores of Beethoven SonataS with
comments for guidance in play
ing the sparsity Of pedal mark
ings is noticeable. But in his
actual playing scarcely measure
passes without the use Of the
pedal.
His adagio passages were given
with telling effect and singing
tone, not giving way to the usual
impulse to hurry such movements.
When q fast passage was indi-
Gated, he sometimes played so fast
as to interfere with clearness.

ONE LONE CLUE

AFINGERPRINT

CHICAGO, Feb. II U.N.s)-A
lone fingerprint, found on the
abandoned automobile Of 'Ma-
chine Gun Jack" McGurn, was the
only definite clue to his assassina-
ton in police possession today.
Police admitted as much as they
revealed the automobile Of the
one-time chief executioner for AL
Capone was recovered last evening
after being abandoned on North
side residential street.
Witnesses told police the auto
mobile was parked by a lone man
who fled in a second car.
Car Kept Two Days
Police marveled at the audacity
Of the man or men who had kept
the car for two days while the
city was being combed for clues
to the murder Of the golfing ma
chinegunner.
McGurn had driven the auto
mobile to the Northwest Side
bowling alley where he was slain
by three men early Saturday.
Adding to the mystery Of the
Staying was the discovery in the
automobile Of q newspaper dated
December 80, and bearing the
headline:
Frank Nitti hunted In Prig.
nanO staying"
Police recalled that Frank, '"The
Enforcer" Nitti, once a powerful
Capone chieftain, and McGurn
were bitter enemies, while Nc
Gurn and Prignano had been
friendly.
Hiding Place Sought
Assuming that whoever aban.
doned the automobile would not
have dared drive it far, police be-
gan q systematic search Of the i'm
mediate neighborhood where it
was found in an effort to discover
where it had been hidden.
