touches on the schedule when they
clash at Plaza, Baltimore, starting

To lock up the pennant against
all mathematical eventualities O.
cidental must win five out of the

the Baltimore aggregation has the
local crew on total pins.
Must Win Seven Games
Plaza must win seven out Of its

Today's etiquette does not make

mourning customs. 1t urges good
taste. of course, and dignity, and
respect, and decency. 1t realizes
that some hearts bowed by sorrow
will inevitably observe long period

hypocrisy of the meaningless wear

those who have no real sorrow

For Gardenia Smoothness

For Gardenla SmoothnesS
TALLED "Gardenia Face
~ Cream" because it is said
to make your face soft and
velvety, like the petals OF a
gardenia, a fairly new cream
is being offered at special
price for 10 days only-the
$3.50 jar for ST.. That's quite
a saving! Makes you feel that
you can afford it now, even If
you couldn't before. That's the
purpose of the offer, to make
more people familiar with the
cream. It's a really different
beauty product from any
you've ever used, different in
principle, in it's ingredients,
and its effect on the facial
tissues. 1t cleanses, nourishes,
and protects the skin, leaving
it with the aforementioned
"gardenia petal" look. And the
fragrance, which is gardenia,
too, is something to go home
and dream about!

Styles

New shows will be the setting
for new and glamorous evening
fashions. A lovely full-length
coat of dark blue velvet has wide
silver fox swirled around the dol
man sleeves to simulate capelet.
A good laugh at the rain will be
the lot of the girl who ventures
forth clad in a smart raincoat.
A new model has wide sleeves and
collar finished with saWtooth edge
and is finished down the front
with scarlet patent leather piping.
The coat is white.
A good edge to fashion is given
by the Embroidered coat which is
very new. A coat of deep reddish
brown wooden has a wide border
OF mink with mink tabs at the
shoulder and neckline.
Always in demand by the indi-
vidual type is the beautifully
styled tricorne. Erik shows a neat
tricorne of black hatter's plush

Beauty
BY DONNA GRACE

Dear Donna Grace: have
funny shaped ankles; sometimes
they are about the size they should
be, and when 1 am on my feet
for a whole day at a time they
swell terribly and ache quite a lot
when they are swollen. / am not
very strong and 1 think they are
just tired, but they look so bad
that / would like to know what /
could do for them. VIOLET
Dear Violet: You really should
see your physician about this
trouble. Swollen ankles are some
times a symptom of some physical
disorder, and it is quite likely it
could be easily corrected. For tenn
porary relief, soak your feet in i
warm bath of epson salt. A cup
full to a foot tub is about right.
Let them soak for 10 minutes, then
plunge them in cold water, and
when they are dried massage them
with cream or oil. When this is
removed, rub them with a little
alcohol or toilet water and dust
with powder. Let them cool with
out covering, if the room is warm.

The color is through and through
the metal-can't chip, peel or
tarnish. AShtrayS are made with
holes all around the rim for fresh
cigarettes, and rests for cigarettes
that are "in use" Match boxes
match them. There are combina-
ton holders for package of
cigarettes, and boxes of matches;
caro- trays, and so on. They are
reeded in contrasting color or
metal, or are otherwise suitably
trimmed, and are really stunning
looking-you must see to believe.
They come in oxblood, black, royal
blue, copper or chromium. They
are done by well-known firm OF
metal makers, and are called
"Radyite," when you go downtown
to ask for them. They're priced
SOC to 50, and pieces are sketched
to the top and bottom of this lit

LOVES THE GIRL
Dear Miss Fairfax:

much, but her mother and
father are too Bohemian to
suit my taste. 1 don't believe
they have any connection with

hemian, because it lets them
off from keeping house.
Sometimes when l go there
to see my girl or pick her up
for a movie, or an outing, the
little coffee cups from the night
before will still be in the
Studio And if there is a
meal, either the girl or her
mother has to pick up the
cups and wash them before
we have any more coffee.

SECRET MARRIAGE
- NR:sz EnS~en.

Dear MISS FAIRFAX:
1--WE are both in the same pO-
sitiOn of dependence on our fam
lilies. My mother, who is self-sup-
porting, has deprived herself Of
the neceSSarieS of life to send me
to college. And it's the same with
the boy to whom 1 am engaged.
He is studying medicine at a local
university and his family go with
out good many things to help
him.
1--WE are both so much in love
that we cannot give the attention
we should to our work. We have
discussed being married secretly,
and then when he is in a position
to help support me, because 1
intend to take a job as soon as /
graduate, tell our families we are
married.
do you think this would be q
mistake, that we might regret?
Do you think we would be unfair
to our families, who have Sacri-
feed a good deal, in marrying
secretly? Please answer SOOn."
WORRIED"
Making all due allowance for
young people being devotedly in
love, don't you think it would be
a pretty selfish thing to do, to
make this kind of marriage, In
giving up a good deal to enable
you two to go to college, doubtless
your families expect you will not
only be independent but perhaps
pay back part of the indebtedness
to them. A secret marriage, such
as you suggest. is on such an en-
tirely artificial basis, that it seldom
turns out well.
To suggest such outmoded words
as duty and obligation" will prob
ably bring down wrath upon your
head, but before taking this rash
step, you should consider what
your people have done to give you
such advantages.

The amount needed for each
serving varies considerably.
In the case of brocilll, one-third
pound makes the average size
serving. With cauliflower, allow
one-fourth of a medium sized
head. For celery allow one-fourth
a medium bunch per person. Buy
one-fifth pound of mushroom for
each, and a half-pound of Hub
bard squash. For generous Serv-
ings of spinach, purchase one-half
pound for each person.
Choose green vegetables that are
crisp and tender. Buy only firm
fresh heads of bruSsel sprouts.
Avoid heads of cauliflower that
have brown spots of mildew and
are not solid, white, and compact
with crisp outer leaves.
In preparing the cauliflower,
cut away the green leaves and the
woody base and remove any dark
spots that may be found on the
flowerlets. Soak the head in sailed
water for 20 minutes.
The caulifloWer can either be
cooked whole or can be divided
into flowerletS. If cooked whole,
boil uncovered in a large amount
of sailed water. When tender,
drain, salt and serve with Hol-
landiSe sauce.
If cooked in flowerlets, try this
recipe with a cheese sauce:

WP.A. POLITICS

A definite and specific charge that the Works

ginia is a political machine has been made by the

Senator Holt. The charge mas been made IN gen

This as a friend of the Administration and as a
friend of the Works Progress Administration" He
went on to say 1.-THE leadership of the Works Prog
ress Administration in the State of West Virginia
under the present head disgrace to the State
of West Virginia and to the Works Progress Adj
ministraton."
Senator Holt said, in effect, that it was purely
political machine that individuals could not get OH
the rolls unless they had the endorsement of the
political boss of each county who was henceman
of the head of the W.P.A. in West Virginia.
The National Administration will have heavy
load to pull in this matter in many states.
1t is time to clean up and clean out.
The whole program of relief is based on non
partisan administration.
If the program is to be made one for political
advancement either for an individual in party or
for party itself, the effect will be disastrous.
The Holt charges should be investigated and i
true, the ones responsible for the situation should
be removed from office-Greenwood (S.CD In
