Doll Brings
Luck Says
Girl Owner
Geraldine Hopes She
Can Make it Her
Travelmate.
BY MARIA Won vROOMAN.

nOLLS-and more dolls--have al
~ ways been hobby with Geraldine
Helmbold of 3l38 @ street. But it
wasn't until Pinnochio came to her
house that she began to get as many
dolls as she really wanted.
That's because Pinnochio is good
luck" says Geraldine.
Pinnochio is Geraldine's favorite
doll He's story book character.
Geraldine read all about him in a
book that tells of his native Italy.
All Italian children have Pinnochio
dolls. They think he stands for good
fortune.
So when Geraldine's cousin came
back from Italy with Pinnochio doll
for her, she said at once:
Nov I'll soon have all the dolls
want. Pinnochio will bring them.
He's luckyi"
And bring dolls he did. Pinnochio
was given to Geraldine when she was
4. She's now, and her play room is
filled with all sorts of dolls, American
and foreign, too. Geraldine intends to
go on collecting more and more dolls
until she and Pinnochio are old. PIN
nochio likes dolls, too," says Ger
aldine.
Pinnochio is made of wood and
beautifully jointed at his neck, wrists,
waist and knees. He can nod hi; head,
bow, wave his hands and walk. He
has funny clown costume and a
cheerful, comical face. Geraldine says
he can stride along very nicely, like
real person, if his hands are held at
either side.
Geraldine always liked the story of
~Little Red Riding Hood" when she
was small. So one of the first foreign
dolls she received was Red Riding
Hood from England. She is about 3
feet tall and is dressed completely in
red velvet. Among other dolls Ger
aldine has Russian peasant doll and
an Eskimo doll. She will receive new
ones soon from traveller friends, but
some day she plans to find dolls in far
places herself.
I'm saving my money for some
travelling now" she said.
AS she talks about going to foreign
countries for new dolls, Geraldine
looks at Pinnochio. Pinnochio is pretty
old now. He's minus leg and his
clothes are bit shabby. But Geraldine
doesn't forget that he brought her
luck-and all those dolls! He'll prob
ably be her travelling companion when
she is ready to start out.

TahifianS Swim.
HE Tahitians are wonderful under

The Tahitians are wonderful under
water swimmers and love to sxGka

cent underwater ferns and plants
grow in profuse kinds and fantastic
shapes. The Tahitians can stay under

flowers; they like to wear them In

There is only one place that they
are forbidden to swim. That Is the
Sacred Blue Grotto of the Gods near
Papeete, the capital. The water here
is an amazing bright blue and very
beautiful.
The Tahitians have been told by
their medicine man that they would

tempt to complete one single part,
such as the head, before working on
the others. The model must be
carved as whole.
THE finishing touch is polishing,
which is done when the model has
been allowed to dry for a day or two
after it has been completed. In
polishing soap sculpture first rub it
all over carefully with paper napkin
and be careful OF projections which
might break off. Then rub it gently
With the fingertips and the palm OF
the hand. The finish thus produced
is soft, yet reflective enough to bring
out the high ughts effectively.
Evening star., 1937-09-19

Be careful to put these in position
which will not interfere with carving
later. Press the cakes together and
put weight on them for several hours
until the joint has hardened thorough
ly. Smooth off the soap which has
squeezed out at the edges of the Joint.
1t is better to let each joint harden
before adding another cake to the
piece.
If the time comes when you are
tired of modelling animals, birds and
characters in white soap, why not try
the colored soaps, ranging from trans
parent colors or marbleized soap? The
results from glycerin soap In green
and amber are particularly effective.

a local team.
THIS organization grows not only in
size, but in ideas, all originated
by Joe himself. His ieea this Sum-
mer was the elimination tournament,
and the boys Immediately took to it.
1t led up to the series which has just
been played.
Joe would like in the future to ar
range a series of games between the
league winners and junior amateur
ball teams in Baltimore. incidentally,
his personal ambition is to be sports
writer and I wish him luck in both.
Joe tells me that every night he
receives between 20 and 40 phone
calls from the youthful managers
about decisions which have put their
team out of the running.
In closing, he said: This is the
largest organization of its kind around
here, and it really is gratifying to see
the enthusiasm and interest that the
boys have"
Well. says l, it's in places like this
that you find your future Gehrigs, Di
Maggios, Hubbells and Deans!

Pet Enjoys
Play Times
Billy, Brought From
Virginia, Became
Popular Here.

THIS is the story Of Billy. the
grounding most Of all,
about the things Billy likes to eat!
A native of Virginia, Billy was cap
tured by some small boys last Spring
when he was only two or three weeks
old, and came to live In Washington
at 1143 Fifteenth street.
Officially, he belongs to Mr. and
Mrs. Nicholas Lopsis, proprietors OF
the fruit and magazine stand next
door to the Episcopal Hospital. Un-
officially, he seems to belong to any
one who happens to come along and
wants to have romp with him. He's
particularly fond of children and las
turned out to be just about the most
popular pet in his neighborhood.
Billy enjoys play. But, if you want
to make real friend of him-and
almost every one who sees him does
the best way is to remember his appc-
tite.
What does he like to hat? Well,
carrots, lettuce and otner green Things
are included on his diet, as a matter
of course. But Billy has taken readily
to city life and demands little luxu-
ries he'd never get if he lived in the
woods.
Not long after he came to Washing
ton the Lopsis discovered Billy was
fond of bananas. Since he lives with
fruit all around him, he doesn't always
wait either. to be offered this par
ticular favorite, and it's not unusual
for him to be caught sneaking a
banana from the stand.
He enjoys ice cream cones, too, and
soft drinks but not the dose of castor
oil which has been necessary once or
twice after Billy had been just a
little greedy about these delicacies.
And, oh yes, he likes bread and

The Star as follows:
"All my life I had wanted a pony"
he wrote, "and finally dad had bought
one for me. He tried to get the
gentlest one he could find, and I
thought he not only found the gen.
tlest one but the slowest one alive.
In order to make him go dad al
most had to get behind him and
push him along.
I had had the pony about week
and I was beginning to think that
nothing on earth would make him

If it is planned to carve sculpture

be joined before carving is begun. TO
do this, shave of the surface from all
sides of the cakes so that the slightly
drier surface is removed. Place the
cakes in a pan, with the edges to be
united immersed in water. Heat slow

NEAR EDITOR:

1EAR EDIIOR.
Il am girl IA years Of age
and my address is Vienna, Va.
Il am writing to tell you about my
hobbies. AS l have two, I suppose
I may as well tell about both of them.
We'll, to begin with, the first hobby
started on was making scrapbooks.
have heard of scrapbooks OF one
special thing such as movie stars,
birds and other things. But mine is
a little different. 1t is of all pretty
pictures such as flowers, babies, birds,
pretty homes and good things to eat.
Il became interested in this hobby
when I was about years old. I
was in the hospital, having my tonsils
out, and the nurse brought q scrap
book in for me to look at. In the
front I saw where some one had
presented it to the hospital to help
cheer up the sick. I thought that
was SO wonderful that 1 decided to
make books like it as one Of my
hobbies. I have four now, and I
would like to present one to the
hospital.
"As my other hobby, I chose collect
ing match packages, as there are 80
many different kinds to find. I paste
them all on sheets of cardboard TO
exhibit them.
Il am working especially hard now
on both of my hobbies, because I be-
long to the All Club and 1 want to
enter them in the fair. I would like
to have mine looking just as nice as
I can.
Hoping my letter will escape Mr.
Wastebasket, I remain a faithful
reader of The Star.
Yours very truly,
