parchment so as to retain all their natural
favor and that they be served simply with
butter. Il love plate of four or five vege-
tables prepared like that, she says.
There should not be many courses at any
meal, in Gloria's opinion. She does not care
for too many combinations of taste. And she
deals adequately with the question that
troubles many Californians: should the salad
course always come first as is so customary
out there? IF you are having soup, then serve
the salad after the lamb or beef. But if there
is not to be any soup, then have the salad
FIRST" Gloria says.
There are two personal favorites that
Gloria cannot resist. One is crumpets soaked
in butter and treacle for tea in the afternoon.
And the other is candy at almost any time.

says. "In fact, I'm almost ashamed to admit
how quickly can make away with sweets.

is surprisingly yunostentatious person. Shehas

life.
In some other aspects of domesticity she
gives gimpses of herself as the glamour loving
screen star. There is, for instance, the scene
she describes in connection with eating out OF
DOORS In Hollywood" she says, Il love to
dine out of doors. 1t is not possible as often
as you'd think, for the nights turn very cool.
And though we often lunch out of doors, it is
possible to dine out only once IN while But
now and then comes an evening when we can;
and l don't think there's anything that has
the charm of tropical evening with moon
and women shimmering in chiffon gowns.
For a dinner party then l would begin
with fruit cocktail. Next would come the
fish course and for this trout is perhaps the
most delicious of all For meat, would choose
crown of lamb, served with carrots cooked
southern style 80 that they are crispy and
sweet. An endive salad would be nice then and
for the last course would have an ice - and
coffee, of course.
"As for food in general, the thing / like
best of all is fruit and fruit juices" Gloria
says. Il remember as a child going down into
nv grandmother's basement to get russell
pear. And when bit into it, the JUICE ran
down my chin. still love to bite into whole
fruit. like it ripe and juicy and not iced,

in my own garden where there were orange

UNFURNISHED ROOM
WITH MEALS:
Have you ideas about how you
would like to furnish your room? i?
Well, here's q chance to try out
original ideas in perfect setting.
Out on 18th Street, across from
Meridian Park, a young couple
who are living in one of those de
luxe studio type apartments, have
an unfurniShed room which they
will rent with or without meals.
The room is particularly attrac-
tive with pastel shaded walls,
paneled with silver colored strips
that is most pleasing to the eye.
With maid service, two meals q
day, the rental will be $50 for two.
18TH STREET N. W.,
A clever landlord has turned his
house into small apartments and
there is one available at once.
Located on the first floor in the
rear it consists of an immense
room furnished as a bed-living
room and a kitchen large enough
to hold a dinette set. The bath is
Semi-private. Rental $35.
FURNISHED HOUSE:
II you appreciate lovely old
things (and who doesnt?) see this
house at Chevy Chase Circle on
the D. c. side. The upper floor of
this detached house has three bed
rooms, all of them unusually
bright and CHEEKY. Downstairs is
a living room. dining room, study,
lavatory and kitchen. A full base.
ment contains automatic heat,
garage. maids lavatory and laun-
dry tubs. This house is immacu-
late in every way and offers the
ultimate to a discriminating
family. A small, informal garden
running along the side and the
rear should prove delightful in
the warm days to come. If inter.
ested I will be glad to arrange for
an appointment to inspect.

HALL
ENDSDAYSAS
AUDITORIUM

Washington today boasts the
dubious distinction of being the
only city of it's size in the United
States lacking a suitable indoor
space for such exhibits as the an,
nual automobile show.
The dilemma arose today, when
it was learned the management
Of the Wardman Park Hotel has
decided to prohibit further use OF
its garage-known as Calvert
Hall"-aS an exhibition center.
Last Structure
With the renting Of the Wash
ington Auditorium by the Govern
ment and the gradual loss of other
buildings for exhibition purposes,
Calvert Hall remained the last
structure available for large-scale
displays, Today'S order from the
Wardman Park management re-
moves even this out-of-the-Way
location.
Reason for the move, the man.
agement declared, has been the
complaints of hotel residents
against the necessity of removing
their cars from the garage dur
ing periods when the building is
rented. The present exhibition in
the garage, the United Food Show,
will be the last of its type at
that spot.
Need Cited
Declaring Washington needs a
building for both convention and
exhibition purposes, Edward D.
Shaw, secretary of the Merchants
g. Manufacturers Association, to-
day corroborated the fact that the
site for this years automobile
show will be a pressing problem.
The only available spaces, he
said, are in hotel lobbieS, where
there is insufficient room for a
show as large as the automobile
displays.
Agitation for a new building
here may reach its peak because
Of the present situation. it was
freely predicted by merchants.
Among the plans long advocated
is the construction of a combined
National Guard armory and con-
vention hall at the Eastern
Branch end Of East Capitol st.
Washington is losing many con-
ventions and other gatherings to
competing cities because of its
lack Of . suitable hall, Shaw de-
clared.

ACROSS FROM WARDMAN
PARK:
What a lot of fun four girls could
have living in such a convenient
neighborhood, with Wardman
Park just across the street. In
this lovely detached home that has
been turned into a guest house
there is a huge room that is
equipped to take care of four girls
nicely. The best of meals will be
served and the owner has provided
a delightful sitting room for the
use of her guests. For four con-
genial friends who are anxious to
live comfortably and reasonably
I believe this will prove worth
while.
NEAR THE NAVY YARD:
Down near the Navy Yard there
is a double room that is available
at once. You will find all the
comforts here, especially plenty
Of heat and hot water. Real home
cooked meals, the kind you would
get at home, are served in family
style and I have been told there
is abundance of food. All of this
can be had for So week apiece.
$500 BLOCK 18TH ST. N. w.:
You can look far and near but
you won't find a more reasonable
room than this one. 1t has a porch
and is right next to the bath and
is very comfortably furnished.
The proof of the pudding in this
case is the fact that the owner
makes her guests SO comfortable
they never want to leave. The ex.
press bus. which comes right down
18th Street to the business center,
stops at the corner opposite the
house so you would not have any
transportation trouble. Rental
asked is 500.

the serving. My brother would
act as host, of course, but does
not care to serve or prepare the
plates. Should they be prepared

at the head Of the table; your
brother, the host, should sit op-

OF all the problems of beauty,
the most vital and important
one is to know how to take care
of the eyes. No elaboration is
necessary on this statement. We
all agree on that. but I find
there are many who are always
anxious for advice that will help
them to relieve or cure some
form Of eye trouble.
Some Of my readers, in ask
ing for advice, describe symp-
toms and conditions that call
for the attention Of an eye
specialist rather than a beauty
specialist. For those I do want
to urge you to go at once and
have your eyes examined. There
may be some simple disorder
that can easily be corrected
and if neglected will result In
serious trouble.
FORMULA FOR EYEWASH
I will give you a formula for
an eyewaSh that was given to
me by one Of the greatest eye
specialists in the country. 1t IS
so simple that you can mix IL
at home and always keep a
bottle on hand 1t is better kept
ice cold (any eyewash is better
used cold). Here is your 1or"
mula; put it away and keep it:
Take a teaspoonful each OF
bicarbonate of soda, table salt
and borax. Dissolve in a quart
of boiled water, and then add a
tablespoonful o. soda, table salt
and borax. Dissolve in a quart
of boiled water, and then add a
tablespoonful of glycerine. use
