her father was unwilling for her to
begin a stage career.
Plans Changed
Blossom and jeanette over-per-
suaded him, however, and he con-
sented to a twoweeks' try-out.
When the two weeks were UP, Jean
ette's plans were changed. She
gave up school and began the
usual routine for the professional
stage. The family moved to New
York, that she might have home
with them, and she studied voice,
and dancing with Albe r n a
RaSch.
From the Wayburn revue she
went into musical comedy, first
Irene" then "Tangerine," under
studying the feminine roles.
Chances were rare and risks were
constant. Such parts were hard to
find, and she was still unknown,
so she posed for commercial pho
tographers, and managed to bridge
the time. until she happened to
meet Zelda Sears, the play
wright.
Miss Sears husband was man.
aging director for Henry w. Saw
age, and, recognizing her ability,
they arranged a meeting with
him. After that, things happened
quickly. Mr.. Savage gave her a
valuable contract, and various
roles in the Magic Ring" Tip
toes" and her first prima donna
role in Sunny Days"
While singing in Angela" a
first screen test was made of her,
and she was offered the leading
role opposite Richard Dix, in
new picture, but her stage con-
tract would not permit her to ac-
cept the offer.
Slender Figure
But in 1929, the contract ended,
the depression was on, and then
Ernest LubitSch was looking for a
leading woman who could sing.
He saw the old test and sent for
her to play opposite Maurice
Chevalier, in the Love Parade"
and gave her a two-year contract.
So she turned her back on the
New York stage and went to Hol-
lywood with a long line of famous
roles awaiting her.
After she had finished Love
Me Tonight" her contract was
over and she went on a long con-
cert tour of Europe, singing in all
the European capitals, for she has
always wanted to divide her time
between pictures and the concert
stage. Thus far she has succeeded
remarkably we'll in being able to
carry out this program.
Jeanette is five feet five inches
tall, and weighs 120 pounds. She
uses her own name and devotes
her odd time to the study of Ian
guages, constantly working with
her music, both vocal and instru-
mental.
She keeps her slender figure
with plenty of out-of-doors exercise
is very fond Of swimming and
riding, and is unmarried. She has
no intention of marrying-at least
in the near future-for she still
delights in keeping fit for her sue
cess that is still golden, and has
not yet begun to fade.

SHE CHANGES
Dear Miss Fairfax:

OCeSE NA1SS + Ed1E1dA0
II can't tell you how much
love this girl, but she seems to be
slowly fading away from me. At
first she wrote devoted love let
tiers, but in her last one were these
words: 81 love you so, and even
though / can't say it, the words
are in my heart"
"Au of a sudden she stopped
going with me and when 1 asked
her why, she says she is too busy
and has no time. I'm a decent
sort Of a chap, and she is my first
love. She seems to think I've had
lots Of girls, but she's wrong.
"What shall I do? I can't eat
or sleep, and I'm losing weight on
account of this trouble.
LOUIS"
You've got to take yourself in
hand, my dear Louis, and stop let
ting this girl wreck your life. If
she won't see you, she won't, and
saying she's busy isn't a real eX.
cuse. The remedy is as old as
Adam.
You've got to try to interest
yourself in other girls, or in some
occupation, which will take up
your leisure time.

TALK 1T OVER

Dear Miss FalrtaX:
Il am young married woman,
having been married a year ago,
and already my husband seems
bored and is terribly indifferent to
me. Do you think 1 can do any
thing to change matters, or would
you suggest a separation? Any
woman can divorce her husband;
the trick is to hold him.
81 have an office position and
am helping him finish his uni
versity education. Do you think
it's worth my efforts? Be kind
enough to answer. WEARY"
You're quite right, my dear, the
trick is to keep a husband and
not divorce him, if he's worth it
at all. From what you tell me,
he seems bit spoiled. You can't
do much more than work to help
him toward a better education
that should bring gratitude and
consideration-and the fact that
it has not, makes me wonder if
your doing so much hasn't made
him take things sort of matter of
course.
I'm a great believer in talking
things out peaceably, and with
out bitterness. Why don't you
try that?

Culotte Suits, $1.95


OUCH a value! When these
~ smart culotte suits came in
they walked right out of the
store, three dozen of them, in
an hour or so. But now there
are more, for you, in case you
didn't get the first. Sets of
culottes, shirt and scarf belt,
three pieces, are only $1.95.
They are of cotton shantung,
or of broadcloth, and are
printed in several smart de-
signs, most of them flower
prints, in gay colors. The cul-
ottes have pleats, to give them
the necessary full look, and the
sash looks better than the u.s.
ual belt. 1t is in solid color.

REECKMAN

ByMRS. CORNELIUS BEECKMAN
Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
I'VE are planning to attend a
dance at q fashionable hotel in a
large city next week. AS this is
our first dance in this type of
place, we are in doubt as to our
ordering.
"Since we do not care to drink
intoxicating liquors, we would ap-
preciate your advising us just
what drinks or refreshments it
would be proper for us to order.
Do you think it would make us
seem backward" if we ordered
cold drinks, such as ginger ale,
and so forth? FLORENCE"
Abolish from your mind, dear
lady, that it is provincial" to
order what you wish to order, in
a restaurant or at a dance. There
is no reason in the world to order
or to accept highball or a cock
tail when you don't want one.
even if everyone in the room is
ordering one but you. Any more
than there is any reason for you
to order an omelet when you de-
test eggs!
AS a matter of fact, this idea of
being provincial works just the
other way, for it is considered pro-
vincial to take a drink that you
don't want or like. The pro-
vincialism comes in being hesitant
about ordering what you want, or
in ungraciously refusing the drink
you are offered.
There is, for instance, no rea-
son to put on a piouS air and say,
"No, thank you, I never drink, or
THANK you, no; I never touch it" .
All of this piety is misplaced and
inappropriate. The thing to say
is, graciously, "No, thank you very
much; but would it be convenient
for me to have a glass of any kind
of sparkling water; or plain water,
if the sparkling water isn't con-
venient"? { What you ask for de-
pends on what you know is con-
venient. Usually there is some
kind of sparkling water, or ginger
ale. or something of this typeJ
AS a matter of fact, too-and !
say it for further comforting con-
firmation - thoughtful hoSteSSeS
nowadays, hostesses who are So
phiSticated and socially accuS-
toned, provide non-alcoholic al.
ternatives for highballs and cock
tails when they have guests. There
is often pitcher of ice-cold orange
Juice, or glasses of tomato juice
cocktails, or ginger ale, or one or
two kinds of sparkling waters. 1t
is the same thoughtfulness that
makes a hostess serve coffee and
a coffee-substitute after dinner.
So fare gallantly forth, my lady,
to this dance or to any other
party, and order what you want
with an assured, but not too as
sured, manner. Just make sure
first that they have, or probably
have, your favorite drink.
And P. S.: This answer applies,
too, to the question of cigarettes.
Again no need to be pious or Gin
formative" about smoking or our
beliefs about it. Enough to say,
if we don't smoke or don't want to
smoke, mo, thank you" And keep
an ear to the way you say it!

DANCE ATTIRE

Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
"WilI you kindly inform me
just what would be a proper en-
Semble for a dinner dance at an
exclusive inn?
"What should the man wear to
this dinner dance? p"
At this season of the year a
woman would wear a summery
dance frock to a dinner dance.
It might be of plain or printed
chiffon, or the organdie or net
that is so popular this year, or Of
some other summery material.
There might be matching short
jacket to the dress, or you might
wear one of the gay, new short
coats of taffeta.
The man might wear his tuxedo
suit, or if he preferred and if the
night were warm, he might wear
white flannel trousers with a
blue or brown coat, or his tuxedo
trousers with a white mess jacket.

urges me to take the position I
am beginning to doubt her love.
"Other opportunities are likely

Unless the offer of the new po-
sition implies that it shall be filled
by a single man, I don't see why
you and your girl can't be mar
