that We are not aware that our neigh
bors are so close. Every inch Of this
plot Of land is utilized as a part of
the eraciousness OF the house, and.
though 1t may be tiny, gives an effect
Of spaciousness.
This is not the town house you would
pick out for family Of rollicking chill

OF the National Capital and though

and charm, it is above all, ALWAYS "on
It's best behavior" It is a perfect house
FOR the strenuous life of Govern

life. 1t is ideal for any person who
wishes to secure the charm and rest
fulness Of home with the compact
easy-to-manage advantages of a town
apartment.
II you love brocades and damask
soft colors and deep velvety surfaces
this is the house in which YOU NAV
indulge to your hearts content. But
when you acquire these things keep
IN mind the fact that they demand
exquisite care-and make allowances
for 1t in the budget Be sure that YOUR
silver is glistening and your brass
andlrons reflect tirelight. That the
mahogany and rosewood furniture
glows with the deep rich color which
comes from continuous polishing. In
short-be ready to live up to the
elegance that this perfect little house
demands and it will pay dividends
in satisfaction to you and others after
you as long as one brick stands on
another.

munity, New arrivals from England
spoke Of young architect (born in
Wiltshire the same year that the
colony was founded) called Chris
topher Wrenn, who had designed
some very fine buildings in London
to take the place of those DESTROYED
in the fire Of 1866 When the colony
was ready for important buildings,
such as the first college, it was nat
ural that they should call on Wrenn
for suggestions and inspiration. A
sketch plan Of his was submitted for
one Of the buildings at the College of
William and Mary. 1t is not known
whether he actually designed the
building or any other at Williams
burg, but 1t is certain that his work
had a great influence on the men
who planned the important homes
and public buildings there.

Dorothy Dix Says
Beauty Is the Last Thing Man Should
Demand When Looking for Wife.

n EAR MISS DIX: am suf-
flciently practical to believe
that man should choose
wife whose physical quail
fications give some assurance that she
can be the mother of reasonably
strong and healthy children. I believe,
too. that he should choose a wife
whose looks are such that he would
never be Inundated by her appear
ance. On the other hand. there are
other desirable qualities that woman
may have, such as piety, domestic
efficiency, thoughtfulness. loyalty,
etc. My question is: Can these latter
woman's physical deficiencies? :?
There are young women who would
spare no effort and thought in max
ing their husbands happy and COM
Portable, yet they lack physical at
tractiveness. Shall fall for such
type OF young woman and marry
her? LARRY.
Answer-Nine times out Of ten
plain faced Alice sit-by- the fire makes
q better wife than does Miss America.
And there are many reasons for this.
One is that Nature isn't as unjust
as we think she is. Generally she
scatters her gifts with an impartial
hand and when she gives one girl a
beautiful face, she gives her sister a
beautiful disposition. When she be-
slows naturally wavy hair on one
maiden, she puts brains under an
others straight locks, and 80 on down
the line.
or COURSE. there is an occasional
woman who seems to get all the
breaks: to have beauty, intelligence.
unselnshness, amiability and all the
charms and virtues, but such women
are rare indeed. Not without reason
do We use the phrase beautiful but
dumb" As descriptive Of the typical
good LOCKER. It is not often that we
see an exceptionally pretty woman
who isn't spoiled and who doesn't
think that she should have the best
OF everything~ and that her husband
should spend his life ministering to
her and toiling to give her the fine
clothes that she needs to set of her
good looks.
The homely woman, on the other
hand, knowing that she lacks the
fatal lure Of beauty, gets busy culti-
vating other charms. She knows that
II she Is to be attractive to her fellow
creatures she must be interesting
and amusing Is a companion, 80 she
oultivates her mind.
She knows she must make an effort
to be pleasant and agreeable to draw
people about her, and that IN order
to get = HUSBAND and keep him she
must cater to him. And that there
q more potency In these charms than
n the ons charm Of beauty u proven
Evening star., 1937-08-24

by the fact that so many women who
never take a prize in beauty show
get married.
Personally, 1 think that the last
thing that a man should marry for
is beauty, because that does not last.
In few years it is bound to 20, but
the woman who has q beautiful soul
gets more attractive as the years 70
by. Moreover, the homely woman is
always 80 grateful to the man who
picked her out for a wife that she
spends her time trying to please him.
And that's something OF which he
never tires.
nEAR DOROTHY DIX: Not long
ago 1 lost my husband He left
me quite a bit Of insurance and a
nice car. all Of which I kept for my
self and my family's use My mother
in-law is a poor widow who earns her
living by doing odd jobs and has moth
ing whatever besides that and the
little her children are able to rive
her. Should I have given her any of
the money that my husband and her
son gave his life for?
A YOUNG WIDOW.
Answer-1 think so. I think Won
should make her a monthly allowance
of as much as you c4n afford 40 as
to make her life easier and give her
a sense of security. Surely If yo,1
loved your husband it will make you
happy to do something that you know
he would have wanted you to do.
To do this will be not only a eener-
GUS gesture. but an act of Justice On
your part. After all. your husband
made the money he left you and his
mother has a better claim to eniov
some OF 1t than your family has. No
woman can owe greater debt to
another woman than a wife owes to
the mother OF 4 good husband. For
what every man is. is largely the re-
suit OF the training his mother gave
him. If he is frugal and industrious.
nine times out OF ten 1t Is because his
mother held him to his tasks In his
childhood.
II ne is go-getter, it is because
sne lit the fires OF ambition in his
soul. If he Is tender and considerate
to his wife. it is because his mother
taught him to be chivalrous to women.
SO urge you to help your mother-in-
law, Make her life easier in her old
age and God will bless you for it.

BLESSED SACRAMENTS
 BOOK TWO GAMES

It's 6 very bad weekend when the Blessed sacraments do not book at least two baseball games, which will be their lot on Saturday and Sunday when they go to bat on the familiar diamond of Bunker Hill Stadium. Freddy Frazier's Water williams will test the team coached by Joe Cavanaugh which has not lost a game in some time, Pinky Woods or Nick Platt to do the pitching for the Sacraments, who have been put in the proper frame of mind by c pep talk by their friend and counsellor, Rev. Francis Barrett, who will probably lead the cheering section for the two games.
 On Sunday. the sacraments will tangle with the West Side A. c. in their most important game of the season, and the game they want most to win, and hope to do 50 with the particular aid of Oily" Petrillo, who hit his first home run last week under mysterious circum- stances, when he turned toward the bench to see who was heckling him. Coach Cavanaugh is expected to Aubrey or Bob Moran, Jr., to the mound against the siders.
